She was taking a long bath with expensive spices and perfume. Her head was rested on a cushion, while a female slave washed her hair and gave her a facial massage. Her arms and legs also extended, a further four female slaves, one for each limb, were treating her nails. Around the waters, three male slaves played a relaxing, harmonious melody while three female ones chanted in beautiful voices. The whole room was built like a spacious spa, with roman decorations. Life was good for Domina.
When it was done, she was dressed in fine roman clothing and jewels while her hair was styled with complex patterns. The whole morning routine, from the moment music woke her up and she was carried to breakfast to the moment she was fully prepared, usually took around three hours. Afterwards, she would walk, followed by this entourage of eleven slaves, to meet her husband, our Dominus. The six musicians played and sang along; her five servers carried her stuff, sometimes the end of her dress if it was too long, and waited for any orders.
As per usual, Dominus was waiting for her at the business room. It was the biggest room in the whole mansion: it was as big as a middle-sized company office, for that was precisely its purpose; but decoration made it look more like a roman palace (which it was) than an office. Around a massive table at its center, close to fifty slaves of both sexes were busy with computers, papers and phone calls. This is were most of us spent the day. At the end of the room, climbing a few stairs, a pair of thrones stood above it all. One was empty, but in front of the other one was Dominus, standing up, with a martial attitude.
Domina approached him, smiling. The musicians stopped playing and singing, and all eleven slaves dropped to their knees and lowered their heads. Dominus smiled back.
"Oh, my dear lord", she said, "why are you always so tense? You should relax. Your business is already functioning almost on its own, that's how good a job you did. Our slaves know what they're doing, trust them a little. Just sit down and let's enjoy this beautiful day". She held his hands and kissed him on the lips, before gracefully sitting down on her throne.
