--Dr Isabella Pacetti's Notes:
To recap: Sophie's is punishing Katy by making her wear a gag for a week and denying her any sexual pleasure. We pick up the narrative just after Katy has used her tongue to give Sophie a powerful orgasm.
For reasons that will become clear, I wish to stress once again that all participants in the following scenes are adult women and fully consenting.
--Sophie's Statement:
I walked from the cellar, carrying the wine and book as casually as I could, moving slowly and sedately, swinging my hips just a little, feeling her eyes devouring my every movement. At the top of the steps, well out of sight, I leaned against the wall and swallowed the remainder of the wine. I hurried across the kitchen, found the bottle and drank a little more. This helped to increase my dizziness, but at least I knew this was only the alcohol.
I left the wine and took my book upstairs, hurrying ever faster in case Katy emerged from the cellar before I could get away. I tossed the book on my bed, closed and locked the door, and took off my clothes. I crawled naked onto my bed and lay on my side, curled foetal, and thought about Katy.
I wondered if she knew what she did to me. Just the sight of her curled up at my feet, or bowing between my legs... it was electrifying. And then there was the skill of her tongue. Surely I couldn't be her first woman, could I? So young and naΓ―ve, yet so instinctively dirty.
I realised I was touching myself. I hesitated for a moment, then thought 'Fuck it, why shouldn't I?' I toyed gently with my aching, tingling pussy and let myself relax. It had taken all of my strength to maintain my coolness with Katy. Even when I was cumming so uncontrollably, I had to remain on my guard, paranoid that I would breath something as natural as 'Oh yes baby' or 'Oh please...', simple phrases that would have diminished my power. And when Katy had continued to work on me after I had told her to stop... I knew I would have been brought to the sort of rapid, stinging orgasm that would have made me convulse helplessly. I wasn't giving the little bitch that sort of power.
Kicking her off the bench had been a horrifying mistake. I could still see the girl tumbling, blind and handcuffed, onto the hard flagstones. For one adrenaline-swollen second I had expected to hear a bone break, and I was terrified until I heard Katy's cries and was reassured the damage was limited. But even then I couldn't quite master my anger. Let her squirm on the floor. Let her clamber dizzy and in agony back onto the bench. Let her learn that she doesn't get to control me, little bitch.
But, oh, what an incredible little bitch she was! I had a clear, shining image of her getting turned on by the prospect of kissing my feet. Kissing my feet. That was just asking for contempt, wasn't it? And did she really believe I had just given her a special treat?
I had looked deep into Katy's wide, kittenish eyes and seen her genuine desire for the punishment and humiliation.
I lay back and played with myself. I had no choice. I lay peacefully for a minute or two, then suddenly remembered the book. Or rather, the bookmark. The little piece of card had been tucked in the pages when I had first selected the book from the shelf. I flipped open the book and slid out the card.
I read it again:
Dr Isabella Pacetti PhD
Specialist Psychology Advisor
followed by an address, a number and a website.
I slid off the bed and padded to the dressing table, where my laptop lay gently purring. I spent a few minutes finding and reading the website.
Within half an hour I had showered and pulled on a dress and sandals, and was out of the front door.
--Dr Pacetti's Notes:
It is here, of course, that I become a feature of the narrative, instead of merely its editor. The reader will have to trust my honesty, and rely on Sophie's perceptions.
--Sophie's Statement:
A dominatrix! An actual, professional dominatrix! You had to read between the lines a little bit: the website was full of all sorts of pseudo-psychological terminology, and talk of "consultations" and "personal progress targets", but I could pick up all the inferences, and so could anyone interested. I could tell this much: this "Doctor" Pacetti ran a service where she promised to provide women with safe and secure submissive experiences. She would control them, psychologically and physically, and give them some sort of "training". She seemed to specialise in women who suffered with frustrated libidos or orgasm failure, and this inescapably made me think of Katy and her agonising lack of climax.
I should have asked Katy directly. She may have only fleetingly considered consulting this woman and thought nothing more about it (though it would have been fun to remind her and watch her squirm). But this might have been serious for Katy, and this so-called doctor may have upset or harmed her in some way. I could have asked Mrs Alderney, but I didn't want to build this into a drama, in case it turned out to be nothing.
After all, the card was in a book which neither of them admitted to reading, in a Dungeon where they apparently never played. It probably belonged to the previous owner of the house, along with everything else down there.
In fact, as I got closer to my destination, I became more certain that I was following a very silly hunch. But the closer I got, the more intrigued I became by the prospect of meeting a real-life professional. And I had a valid and worthy excuse to do so... pretty valid, at least.
And then I was there, walking up the short path to the front door. It was a house in a terraced street, not much to see from the front, but I had the impression the houses went back quite a long way from the road.
There was a small brass plaque with 'Dr Isabella Pacetti Ph.D' engraved on it, and a doorbell, which I pressed, making no sound I could hear.
After a minute I heard a chain and a bolt slide back, and the door was opened on a cool, white interior.
The woman was a fraction taller than me, wearing a knee-length charcoal grey dress, black stockings and black leather pumps. She had long dark hair tied thick and sumptuously at the back of her head, and oval, frameless glasses. Her face was long and brown, with quite heavy eyes, nose and mouth which somehow contrived to look delicate and fine. It was a soft face, but very neat, and when she spoke her voice was the same.
"Good afternoon, can I help you?"
"Hello. Are you um, Dr Pacetti?"
The woman smiled generously and her teeth were smooth and white. "Yes, I am. Were you hoping to speak to me in my professional capacity?"
"Well, I suppose I was. In a way. It's a little delicate and probably nothing, but..."
Dr Pacetti smiled, stepped back and waved me inside. I entered a narrow hallway and the doctor closed the door.
