I woke the next morning immersed in a feeling a dread. I'm normally long to wake in the morning but the anticipation of the day brought me to a fully wakeful state almost immediately. I made myself coffee anyway, habits being what they are.
I had two hours before I had to leave. Sipping my coffee, I reread the instructions. I had done so the previous night, in the bath, but I feared having missed something. I needed a refresher, if only to calm my own fear. Bad as it was, I didn't want to know what a punishment would entail.
The rules were fairly simple. The stack of papers were tick but most of it was a constant reiteration of my basic place in the world for the next year. Over and over, the writing went on about who I was. "You are a toy. You are an object. You exist for the pleasure of others. Your desire is irrelevant. Your wants and needs are irrelevant. You are owned. You are a possession. Your thoughts are as important as those of our pencils..." I had to read every word of this to get to the basic instructions embedded within at random intervals. Which was why I felt the need to read it again. It would have been easy to miss one.
I was not to wear panties. Ever. I was only to wear what had been given to me. I was to follow the orders of anybody who displayed a badge. Should I meet a police person away from the station, one displaying a badge, I was to immediately identify my position to them by saying, "Thank you for your service to the community. If there's anything I can do to repay you, just ask." I was to be clean every day. I was to fix my hair every day, keep my nails painted. My duties would be janitorial, I was to clean all day when not servicing one of my many new masters. There were three different floors to the station and I was to keep to a different one every day, rotating each of three days. I was to visit the sex shop once a month for a waxing.
I found nothing new. I supposed I had caught it all last night. While it was on my mind, I marked the one month interval on my calender and prepared for my day.
The outfits were loose, flowing dresses, almost floor length. I had a set of new bras. They only served to push my breasts up, so they protruded straight from my chest, covering nothing. This left the dress to gently rub against my nipples and I shuddered at the thought of feeling this all day. Fully dressed, I looked at myself in the mirror. My hair was a coif, my face fully painted, and yet the dress could only be described as dowdy. I looked ridiculous.
On the bus ride to the station, I felt everybody must be staring at me but couldn't lift my eyes to confirm this. That horrible excitement, in spite of myself, betraying myself, that offensive need of mine stared at me unwaveringly. I felt a moment of relief stepping off the bus, squashed by the realization that I was now standing before the station. I stood, transfixed, fighting the urge to turn and run, go into hiding, maybe they wouldn't do anything to my husband after all. They hadn't seemed to want to. They hadn't seemed interested. No. No. If he died, it would be my fault alone. And they just might kill him from spite.
I felt a hand on my bottom. "You're early. Good girl. Let's go in." It was Darns. It seemed too much of a coincidence that he would be there just as I arrived. He must have been waiting outside for me. The hand pushed my buttocks forward and I walked with him into the station. His hand on my ass, I thought of all the squats I'd done, the lunges, the one legged knee bends. I thought of all the sweat and pain I'd endured to keep my ass firm and tight. I thought of all the times I considered myself so much better than all those wives I'd watched let themselves go, get flabby and gain weight. Now I could only envy them.
He guided me, wordlessly, to a back room. It was large, full of chairs all facing a podium. A meeting area. This was probably where they got their morning assignments. Darns closed the door behind us. He lifted my dress and ran his finger between my labia. "You're so wet. I couldn't sleep last night, thinking of all the things I'm going to do to you." He grabbed my breast over the dress. "You are in so much trouble, little girl. You're going to regret ever marrying that sissy fucking writer. You're gonna wish you'd married a real man. A cop. A protector. I'm gonna make you beg. You're going to beg for me." At this point, my whole body was trembling. The door opened and Murond walked in.
"Having a little chat?" he asked, offhandedly.
"Yes, sir," Darns said and grabbed a chair, putting it next to the podium.
Then Murond, making minor preparations on the podium, dashed my one, last, little hope, that I wouldn't be alone with Darns too often. "Darns here is my best officer. He requested that he be allowed to do your training and I was more than happy to oblige. He's a real treasure here. We're lucky to have him."
Darns pulled the dress up over my head. He didn't remove it from my neck, he draped it over my head, covering my face and sat me down. I felt my legs being pushed apart. I grabbed the sides of the seat.
I could hear people filing in, random snatches of conversation in the din as a slew of unknown hands fondled me and groped me.
"Nice tits on this one."
"...he said he only had a couple of drinks. It's always a couple..."
"I don't know where I left it. I hate to have to requisition..."
"You think they'll give this one piercings? I love it when they're pierced."
"You see the new commissioner, yet? He was a national hero, a copper himself. That's how it should always be...fucking elite scumbags don't know how to run a force."
"That's for damned sure."
"You know me, I rather prefer the tiny titties..."
Murond's voice broke through. "Okay, settle down. Get seated. We've got a lot to go through today. As you can see, we've got a brand new cunt for the station." Clapping and hooting. "Yes, yes, settle down. You'll get your chance. I know you were worried we wouldn't have one in time for the ball but Darns here found a sketchy little author married to a nice, firm ass. We all owe him a debt of gratitude." More clapping. "He'll be doing her training. For the next couple of days, you'll need his permission. Then she'll be public property. She's responsive, too. Nice and wet. I think you'll all enjoy this one.
"Also, I'm sure you've all heard that we have a new commissioner. We got a PR note that he'll be visiting each station personally. He was the man who found the rebel hideout. It's because of him that our citizens no longer live in fear of terrorist attacks. We'll need to go out of our way to show him great respect when he gets here.
"Today's focus is on the graffiti kids. I want you to keep an eye out for whomever has been defacing public property of late. Talk to the people who work out in the open. Street vendors, curbside whores, bums...anybody who might have seen anything.
"Okay, get out of here. And be safe. Dismissed."
