Angel opened her eyes when she heard a chime and the lights in her cell brightened. Her body ached and she looked down to see the welts still visible from her punishment. She forced herself from the bed and padded over to use the toilet. Afterwards she brushed her teeth and then headed to the shower.
Unlike yesterday, she was alone and turned the water on in the first stall to begin her daily ritual. She sucked in air when the warm water hit her body; just another reminder of her failure. She gently and tenderly tried to wash her body, but it hurt badly and she started to cry.
Tom heard the chime also and rolled out of bed to start his morning routine. Unlike Angel, he shaved his face and crotch in his cell since he didn't get to do it the day before. He turned to proceed to the shower to complete his hygiene, but Mistress Marna was standing in the doorway. He hurried over and knelt at her feet.
"Sit on the edge of your bed and let me examine your back," she commanded.
Tom quickly rose and returned to his bed. She carefully peeled off the bandages and examined the scratch marks. "Is there any pain today?"
"No Mistress Marna," Tom replied.
"Good. I want you to go ahead and shower; then I'll apply some more ointment." She rose and left his cell.
Tom proceeded down the hallway and into the shower; he heard water running. He saw Angel crying and the red welts covering her body. A part of him was glad for her pain, but another part felt sympathy as well. This emotion shocked him; he had never had sympathy for anyone before. He walked past her and turned on the water in the second stall and proceeded to wash himself.
Angel briefly looked at Tom; she turned away to hide her shame. She decided to just stand under the water for a while longer and hoped it would drive the pain away.
Tom also cringed when the water hit his back and he quickly turned so it would hit his front instead. Although he tried to wash his back, his muscles were stiff and sore and he could not reach to do it.
Angel glanced over, noticed Tom's difficulty and guilt flooded her again. She decided to help, lightly touched Tom's arm and without speaking indicated that she would wash his back for him.
Tom was leery but nodded his agreement. Angel lathered her hands and slowly, gently washed Tom's back avoiding putting any pressure on the scratches she had made. When she had finished Tom leaned forward and let the water run down his back. He smiled, nodded and left the shower.
Angel finally managed to wash herself and returned to her cell. She brushed out her hair and placed it in a braid. Only thing left to do was assume her position on the floor and wait for further instruction.
Tom entered his cell and completed his hygiene. He crossed over to the floor and assumed his position as well.
Mistress Marna was not pleased; she had been observing. She picked up the jar of ointment and proceeded to Angel's cell.
Mistress Marna entered Angel's cell and crossed swiftly to her, "Stand."
Angel quickly stood and kept her head bowed.
"Follow me," and Mistress Marna left. Angel trailed her down the long corridor and then into another cell; Tom was kneeling on the floor.
"Kneel down by him," Mistress Marna coldly commanded.
"Angel, explain your actions," said Mistress Marna.
"I'm sorry Mistress Marna, what actions?" said Angel in a confused state.
"Are you telling me that you did not memorize the accepted behavior and guidelines that I gave you?" her voice coldly accused Angel.
"Yes Mistress Marna, I did," Angel said still confused.
"Then why did you touch another slave?" Mistress Marna accused her.
Angel swallowed hard, "Penance Mistress Marna. I'll accept more punishment, but he was having difficulty and I felt I owed it to you to assist him. I'm sorry Mistress Marna."
"Tom, explain your actions," she now addressed him as well. "Why was she allowed to touch you?"
"She offered to help Mistress Marna and I gladly took the assistance. It was wrong and I also will accept punishment," offered Tom. He knew he had forgotten the rule also.
"So, instead of seeking out your Mistress, you let someone else touch you; my property," Mistress Marna accused Tom. "Is she better than your Mistress Tom? You would prefer to have her touch over mine?"
Tom gasped, "No Mistress Marna. I'm yours completely ... I didn't think Mistress Marna. Please forgive me! Punish me in whatever way you want!" He couldn't even conceive not having her touch. Every time that she touched him, he would become aroused.
"Angel do you think you're a Mistress? That you can bypass any rule for your own convenience?" she accused.
"No Mistress Marna, you're my only Mistress. I would never consider that ever!" Angel cried. "Please punish me for my transgression!"
That's what Mistress Marna wanted to hear. "You will both be punished to remind you that I am Mistress here and that rules are set for a reason. In future; you will seek me out for assistance and decisions. Slaves do not think; they obey."
"Yes Mistress Marna," both replied.
"For now; Tom sit on your bed and I will apply the ointment." Tom quickly complied and his back was treated. "They are healing nicely. Now follow me," and she left the room with both slaves following quickly. They both knew the path and door that she was leading them to and their apprehension gripped them.
They entered the room and knelt at Mistress Marna's feet. Angel had noted that the 'X' beam she was strapped to the previous day was still in the center of the room. She swallowed hard and blanched; her body still sore from the previous day's punishment.
Mistress Marna didn't miss Angel's reaction. She crossed over to the intercom. "Lance to the playroom," she commanded.
Tom and Angel both were surprised, 'playroom' they thought of this as a 'punishment room'.
"Look at me," commanded Mistress Marna.
They raised their heads and looked into her eyes. She pointed toward the beam, "I only use the St. Andrew's cross for severe punishment as in your case yesterday Angel. Yesterday was mild compared to what I could have done to you if I had not calmed myself first," and she looked into Tom's eyes on the last. His cock twitched remembering how she rode him to relieve her stress.
Lance entered and knelt at her feet. "Lance removed the cross and stay to assist in training today."
"Yes Mistress Marna." He quickly went and started to dismantle the beam.
"You two; come with me," and she started walking down further in to the room. She stopped at a padded bench.
"You will both kneel, bend over this bench and firmly grasped the handles set into the base. Your asses will be spanked for your arrogance and disregard for my rules. Twenty should be sufficient; ten on each cheek. You will count each stroke as it is given to you. If you move or remove your hands during your punishment, you will be given additional strokes until you stop moving or return your hands to the handles and then your count will resume."
Angel and Tom moved swiftly to bend over the bench and firmly grab the handles. Mistress Marna walked away and then returned.
Angel felt the paddle bite into the right cheek of her ass, "One, Thank you Mistress Marna." Her cheek felt hot when the next blow caught her left cheek; "Two, Thank you Mistress Marna."
Tom heard Angel's responses and braced himself, but when he felt the blow it surprised him that Mistress Marna could hit so hard, "One, Thank you Mistress Marna."
The paddling continued without incident as both slaves accepted their punishment. "Twenty," said Angel through her tears, "Thank you Mistress Marna for punishing me to make me a better slave." Marna smiled as Angel had remembered without being prompted this time.
"Let's hope your sore bottoms will assist your memory as to whom you belong to and what behavior you are to adopt from now on. Get up and follow me to the raised platform." She walked back to the center of the room where Lance was kneeling. "You too Lance," and she crossed over and sat on the padded platform.
Lance quickly knelt in front of Mistress Marna. Tom and Angel were having some difficulty in kneeling because of their well spanked rosy red cheeks.
Mistress Marna smiled, "You both will learn how to please me; ultimately to please any Master or Mistress who wishes to use you with my permission.
"Lance you will sit up here; talk Angel through step by step on how to eat a cunt since she has never been with a woman before. Angel; get between my legs. You know what you like when someone goes down on you, so at some point you may want to try what feels right to you." Mistress Marna eased back and spread her legs open while Angel moved into position.
Lance looked down at Angel and wished he could change places with her. "Angel; use your tongue and lick Mistress from her puckered asshole all the way to her clit," he directed.
Angel stared for a moment and swallowed hard. She leaned forward and stuck out her tongue then licked Mistress' cunt the full length. Mistress Marna raised her hips slightly at the feel of the tongue. Angel smiled and decided that Mistress tasted good; better than she thought.
She closed her eyes remembering the one time that she truly enjoyed being eaten and what had been done to her. Angel opened her eyes and smiled at Lance and nodded at him. She was going to go solo to see how if she could please her Mistress, "Mistress Marna may I have permission to do it without instruction?" she asked.
