After the initial serve of wine, Eve knelt alongside the open fire while Master Michael and Irene talked. Then he asked her to help Irene with the dishes and to prepare a light dinner. It was pre-prepared quiche and hardly needed any preparation apart from heating it. Irene told her some friends were coming to dinner at 6:30. When she had finished helping in the kitchen, Eve returned to the lounge room and knelt on the cushion again. Master Michael told her she could relax. So she rose and lay on the sofa and gazed up at the illuminated image of the girl in the flowery hat framed in gold. Soon she fell asleep in the warmth that radiated from the open fire.
She jumped when Irene woke her and told her to have a shower and prepare for the guest's arrival. She showered quickly; washing the wine stains from between her legs, and combed her hair. She felt awake and clean again now. However she felt a little apprehensive about meeting new people while still naked. But if that is how Master and Mistress wanted to present her then that is how she would be.
She went back to the lounge and knelt on the cushion and waited. Shortly the doorbell sounded and she could hear Master Michael and Mistress Irene greeting their guests. She turned around. Still in the kneeling position, but now with her back to the fire and facing the doorway, her knees lightly pressed together. She imagined herself elegant and statuesque. The door opened and Master and Mistress led their guests into the room.
"Stephen and Stephanie, this is my new slave, Eve. She joined us for the first time last night." Master Michael proudly told them.
"Greetings Master, greetings Mistress, this one is pleased to meet You both." Eve said as she bowed her head in respect.
"Hello Eve." They both replied as their eyes roamed over her naked body.
"Eve please go to the kitchen and bring in the quiche and offer it to our guests" Master ordered.
Eve rose and went to the kitchen. When she returned with the hot quiche, Master and Irene had already offered drinks to their guests and they all stood around talking. Eve went from person to person offering them quiche and a small plate and fork with which to eat it.
It gave her a chance to study these new people, both of whom gave her long lingering looks. She became self conscious about her nakedness and held the plates low so as to cover her newly shaved part and the quiche at chest level trying to cover her breasts.
Stephen was tall and thin. He was older than Master Michael. He was probably in his mid fifties she thought. His face was gaunt, the skin stretched tightly over his high cheekbones. As he took a piece of quiche she noticed his long thin fingers and neatly manicured nails. He was dressed in an open necked shirt with a cravat and wore a dark sports jacket. Eve thought he looked very distinguished.
Stephanie was a very striking woman She was dressed in a midnight blue dress with a short, full skirt ending at mid thigh. The bodice hugged her upper body and was cut low at the back and front, revealing an ample cleavage. Her nipples were very prominent but Eve was not sure whether she was wearing a bra or not. If so, there were no visible signs of straps or the cups. She had blonde hair, which was about the same length as her own, and a lovely golden tan. Her eyes were a lovely sparkling green. eve guessed she was in her early thirties. Eve recognized her perfume, it was Opium, which she sometimes use herself.
Having served everyone, Eve returned to her place beside the fire and knelt. She was only half listening to the conversation and was a little surprised that neither Stephen nor Stephanie seemed perturbed by her presence nor her nakedness.
As Irene collected the plates, Master Michael ordered eve to come to Him. She rose, padded across the room and knelt before him with her back straight, head held high, eyes lowered and her hands resting palm upwards on her widely spread thighs.
"I see she has commenced her training." Stephen remarked as she knelt before her Master.
"Yes, I am yet to find her full potential." Master Michael said as he winked and smiled at his friend.
Michael moved behind her.
"Close your eyes." He told her.
She obeyed.
Her world darkened as he slipped a blindfold over her eyes and fixed it securely behind her head. She did not move.
