After many online and telephone conversations, you had finally decided we should meet face-to-face and have selected a hotel midway between our locations for this, our first meeting.
I was given a room number, date and time. I arrived about 15 minutes late. (I always seem to be late no matter how I structure my time. I tend to get side tracked in my preparations and lose sight of the time.)
I got out of my car and walked about 20 feet before I felt a vague sense of presence behind me. Frightened I whirled about but could see no one. However, I still had that powerful feeling of another presence. I walked a few more feet, glancing about me constantly, quietly attempting to determine where the feeling was emanating from, not wanting to seem paranoid but still being watchful.
About 30 feet from the entrance I felt the presence again, very strongly this time. Not a menacing presence, more a feeling of solidity and strength. I began to move more quickly towards the entrance. As I walked the last few feet toward the entrance I stopped and glanced around me every few seconds.
As my hand reached for the door I heard, more in my mind than in my ear, your voice seductively calling me. More like a whisper of emotion than an actual voice. I cast about looking for you but saw nothing.
Again, I reached for the door only to hear
your voice telling me to turn around. I slowly turned, expecting to see nothing, certain it was my imagination playing tricks. Only to find you
standing silently in the shadows behind me.
You stood and waited for me to approach you. I felt frozen in place. You never moved, only waited patiently, certain of the outcome. I finally felt myself move toward you as you stood still as a statue in the deepening shadows. I stood before you, waiting for you to speak, or to move, or simply to acknowledge my presence.
You stood for a long moment more and finally, as I felt I could stand the silence no longer, your voice softly said "You're late".
I opened my mouth to apologize, to explain, to excuse, only to find I couldn't summon the words.
"It was rude of you to make me wait for you. I was concerned for your safety, little one."
Strangely I felt the urge to fall to my knees before you and beg forgiveness, an unusual response for me to have for simply having been late. Not even late enough to be considered "fashionably late".
You reached out and slid your hand into my hair, cupping the back of my head as you pulled me to you, stopping mere inches from your body. Your presence, more than your hand, held me immobile.
As I gazed into your eyes I felt the first fluttering of desire within me. The first hint of wetness between my legs, my breath coming a bit quicker, my heart beat becoming more rapid, a
warm flush upon my body. I thought you would kiss me but you simply held me there and gazed into my eyes. Satisfied at something you saw there you
finally slid your hand to the center of my back and urged me forward the last few steps toward the door.
As we walked I felt an almost surreal sense of peace, of finally coming home. An odd sensation as I had never been here before. However, I knew the feeling had less to do with the location than it did with your presence.
As we reached the main lobby I wondered again why you directed me to come through the main lobby when you had made a point of saying the room was
close to the west side entrance door. I began to ask but feeling a bit off balance already at your reaction to my being late, I said nothing.
You stopped as we reached the hotel lobby and turned me to you. In a soft voice you said โI had thought to be spare you this...โ as you reached into your pocket and withdrew what looked like a much more elegant and softer version of a dog collar and leash.
As I stared in astonishment you reached and
clasped the collar around my neck. My hand immediately went to the collar, feeling it circling my neck, trailing down to find the attached lead. In anger I pulled at the collar to unfasten it, only to find it securely locked
in place.
I angrily hissed back โRemove this immediately. I am not your pet to collar and parade about. You said we would discuss this.โ
You gently responded โYes, you are, my little one. And so we would have, had you shown me due consideration. I still would have collared you but not like this. From now on you will fasten the collar yourself before you enter my presence. I sought this time to spare you the ordeal of having to be so publicly collared, as it is your first time. I would have preferred to do so
slowly and in the privacy of the room. But as you did not think to spare me the discomfort of having to wait publicly for you earlier, I find I have little thought to spare you this public display of obedience now.โ
You turned from me and simply began to walk through the lobby. I had no choice but to follow or simply to be dragged after you. My face burning in humiliation, I quickly trotted after you, attempting to walk beside you to make the collar and leash less noticeable. But your quick pace only permitted me to follow at your back, leash taut between us.
People stared and whispered, but one look at your face convinced them not to interfere. One look at the fierce determination in your face and I simply lowered my head, tears trailing down my cheeks as I followed you.
We entered the room and I looked about. Nothing frightening, just a hotel room similar to many I had stayed in for business or pleasure over the
years. I turned to you and as I did, I felt you gently put your hands on my shoulders, with only the very slightest of pressure urging me to my knees.
I fought off the urge to kneel as I looked into your eyes, wondering what I would see there. Simply a calm determination.
In a soft gentle voice you whispered "You have much to apologize for. It was unkind to keep me waiting. And to cause me to worry for your safety."
I continued to look into your eyes, mesmerized by the emotions I saw flickering there. A fierce
determination, the remains of your concern at my being unaccountably late, the first trace of lust, a hint of the powerful intelligence combined with a sense of humor that makes you so much you, and finally that innate sense of
command that attracted me so strongly to you to being with.
Seeing your expression change to simply the command to comply, I felt myself without any
conscious volition on my part begin to slip to my knees before you, the urge to beg your forgiveness powerful and, finally, a strange sense of freedom.
The collar was a constant reminder of my earlier transgression. And of your strength and power.
I slowly went to my knees before you, gazing into your eyes the entire time.
I saw no sense of satisfaction there, only a feeling of rightness. Your hand caressed the top of my head and you softly said "Please me".
