A Note from the author:
This is the first of two stories that follow the same day from different perspectives. The other is Santo Diablo Pt. 09. This is Sarah Thompson's perspective, the other Rich Burkhart. Read this first, as Santo Diablo Pt. 09 expands on the conversations here. You don't need to, of course, but you'll get a better understanding of everything.
After you read both, let me know what you think. It's something I wanted to try out. If people like it, I will use it again. Either way, I hope you enjoy it.
Assassin Wolf
Family Submission Pt. 05 Rich Burkhart and Crimson
Deborah showed me around the mansion, and it was enormous. They separated the rooms into two areas. The residential area of the mansion held the family and guest rooms. Split off from the residence were the servant's quarters. These were in the area that also included the laundry, kitchen, security, and maintenance rooms.
I followed Sarah into the residence and she set me up in a guest room, as Rich requested.
"Do you have any clothes with you?" Deborah asked.
"No, I'm afraid not." Sarah answered. "I came with just the clothes I'm wearing. I have nothing else left; that's why I was desperate to get help."
Deborah told me to hold tight and walked out of the room. Left with nothing to do, I walked around. The residence was just one part of the mansion that someone built underground into a cliff overlooking the ocean. Everywhere I went gave me the smell of flowers and salt air; I found it pleasant. Taken on its own, the residence would have made an enormous mansion in its own right. It had a large living room with what you would expect; television, couches, recliners, and tables.
A full dining room included windows that overlooked the ocean and seating for twenty was through a door from the kitchen. This was much smaller than the industrial sized kitchen in the servant area of the facility. The residential area included twelve rooms, with what appeared to be six primary rooms and six smaller guest rooms. This also included one room that must have been the master bedroom, as it had a large double door at the end of the hallway.
Along another hallway were multiple other rooms. I saw what must have been a library, filled with books, tables, and recliners. They set another room up as a game room with a pool table, television, and a small wet bar. Two rooms appeared to be sitting rooms, with just a couch and recliners. Rounding out the rooms were a few offices, one of which Deborah occupied. She was behind a desk, talking on the phone.
Not wanting to eavesdrop, I quickly made my way back to the room Deborah showed me to. Not long after, Deborah walked in.
"Rich has given me permission to take you shopping." Deborah informed me. "You need clothes, and I'm sure you'll need personal supplies as well. If you'll follow me, we will leave now."
We walked outside and climbed into one of Rich's limos. The car had a small wet bar in the back where we were seated, and I'm sure we could have fit eight people if we wanted. After driving through town, we pulled up to an expensive clothing store. These exist around the country, but I've only been in one a few times. A blouse can cost more than $200 dollars, and I can't usually afford such luxuries.
We walked through the door and a woman greeted us.
"Deborah, it's so nice to see you." The woman said. Her name was Ryan, at least according to her nametag. "Please, if you ladies will follow me, Rich has given me instructions on what he wishes Ms. Sarah to wear. I have a few people out grabbing some items we don't have, but they should be back shortly."
We followed Ryan through the store and into the back. As we walked through a large door, we found ourselves in what appeared to be a large living room. It had a couch, recliners, and a television. It also had a table set up with finger food and drinks. A smaller room was through another door, with two clothing racks, a padded bench, and a couch.
No sooner had I got my bearings, the door to the store opened and three women came in, pushing one rack each. They filled these racks with clothes, ranging from jeans to dresses to evening gowns. I stood there, stunned. No way all of this was for me. Before I knew what was happening, the women descended on me. They removed my clothes and started measuring every inch of my body. I three tape measures on me all in different places.
Once Ryan was satisfied, the women started pulling clothes off the racks. Ryan took me into the smaller room and had me put on each outfit. I would put one on and Ryan would examine it and measure. She then had me take it off and hang either on one rack of the other. She explained one rack was clothes I was keeping, and the other was the ones that didn't work.
An hour later, we finished. In the rush to try everything on, I barely saw what I was getting. The women pushed one empty rack out, along with the one full of clothes that didn't fit me. The rack that was left was packed. It must have held over fifty items, from dresses to jeans. I started looking through them when the women came back in. This time, they pushed carts filled with shoe boxes. Here we go.
I spent the next hour trying on shoes. I ended up with four pairs of three-inch, closed toe, heels. They added three pairs of three-inch open-toed heels. All of them were in various colors, and I could see they were trying to match my new clothes. They threw in a few pairs of sneakers, along with four pairs of flats. The women took the shoes out that were left, and I thought we were done. I was wrong.
They next came in with lingerie. Well, not specifically. This wasn't the sexy stuff, but just basic bras, panties, sleepwear, stockings, nylons, and socks. I only had to try a few on to get my exact sizes, and the women picked out an assortment for me. About this time, some other women brought in a few boxes filled with personal items. They had everything from soap and shampoo to razors and pads.
I looked around when the women left. I had owned nothing near this amount of clothes before. I asked Deborah what this would cost, and she told me it was a little over $100 thousand dollars. I almost passed out. That was an insane amount, especially since I just met Rich today. As the women started packing up everything, I talked with Deborah.
"Does Rich do that for all of his women?" I asked Deborah.
