I could hardly keep myself still; my heart was racing a mile a minute. I knew he'd be at my door at any minute, and I jumped at every tiny sound thinking it might be his key in the lock. I bit my lower lip nervously as I sat on the couch, the fabric feeling chilly against my bare skin.
I played with the D shaped wrings on my wrist restraints absently. They, a pair of ankle restraints and his collar were all I wore. It was a rule he'd set down in stone, that while I was home by myself I wasn't to wear anything but these things. I followed that rule carefully, so when he called and told me to be sure I was dressed properly I laughed softly.
I couldn't help it. It was part nervousness. It was also because his words were unexpected. He was silent for a moment, and I could hear his breath before he spoke softly, "Do you think that's funny?"
I blinked and stiffened a little, "No.. I just.. No, its not funny."
His voice came softly again, a hint of reprimand to it, "Its not funny what?"
"Its.. Its not funny, Master," I shivered a little, feeling instantly even more nervous. I hated it when I did something to bring that tone to his voice.
Disappointment and reprimand always made my insides ache. I tried so hard, but sometimes I just made foolish mistakes. "Good.. I'll be there shortly," before he hung up.
I frowned a little. He hadn't called me any of those sweet names I loved so much. No "pet" not even "slave" or my name. He'd only hung up. That was what had me so nervous. I hated things like that. I hated displeasing him. My hands closed around each other tightly, and I waited more. I wondered what would happen when he finally arrived, and I was so deep in my thoughts that I jumped when the door swung open. I hadn't even heard the lock.
There he stood in my doorway, eyes locked to me. I swallowed compulsively and squirmed a little under his even gaze. He stepped in and closed the door slowly, locking it behind him. I stood slowly and smiled softly to him. He only nodded silently, walked to me and kissed my cheek before passing me by.
I watched his back as he went into my bedroom, my hand against my cheek. Biting my lower lip again I followed him, knowing for sure I was in trouble. He would always kiss my lips when he first saw me. I'd grown to expect and look forward to it. Then to have him simply walk past me wordlessly unsettled me too.
I watched him silently from the doorway as he slipped out of his jacket then turned to me. "Come here," waving me to him. I walked to him, trying to keep from clasping my hands nervously together again. I watched his face silently as he rested his hands on my shoulders. He kept me at arms length from him a moment before he pressed down on them, forcing me to my knees. I fell to them easily, offering no resistance, my head leaning back to look up to his face.
He watched me silently for a moment then moved to sit on the edge of my bed. He regarded me quietly, looking me over, before speaking, "You laughed earlier. Do you think that was an appropriate response to my directions?"
I shook my head a little, "No, Master," my voice quavering a little. "I didn't mean to, I'm so.."
He cut me off, "I know that already, but I think that you might need a reminder. What are you?"
I started at him a moment, wondering what exact answer he wanted. He watched me expectantly before I finally responded, "Yours, Master.. Your slave."
"Exactly. My property. Come here," he gestured me to him, and I began to rise to my feet before a hand movement stalled me. Shaking his head, "No.. Its a short space between us. You're my slave. Do you think that you should walk to me after being so disrespectful?"
I shook my head and blinked back tears, swallowing deeply, "No, Master." He only nodded to me silently. I licked at my lower lip gently. My mouth felt so dry just then. I leaned forward, my hands meeting the carpet, and I crawled the short space between us to his feet. I hated to crawl. It had always been something I despised, but at the same time I knew he found it sensual in its own way. That intrigued me and made it feel somehow easier, so I crawled to him. Feeling my muscles lengthen and relax as my hands and knees carried me to him.
I settled back on my heels in front of him, looking to his face again. He reached out a hand and gently stroked down my hair and to my cheek where it rested gently. He spoke softly, "Now.. How do you feel?"
I watched him thoughtfully, thinking hard about how it had felt to crawl. My face leaned into his touch a little, and I spoke softly. "Like I'm yours.. Very much yours, Master."
He nodded and lifted his hand from my face as he stood. "Climb up, pet." I smiled softly to myself at the word, and complied, settling onto my bed cross-legged. He reached into the drawer beside my bed and lifted out a length of coiled rope. "You are mine, completely mine. This means that you belong to me body, mind and even soul. You know that don't you?"
"Yes, Master," I answered breathlessly.
