I wake, stretching my shoulders. The now familiar ache is somehow comforting. I smell coffee brewing. Ms. Carol must have stayed the night. I rub my still tender wrists, remembering the feel of the natural ropes, thinking of Ms. Carol's hands as they bound me. I crave Ms. Carol's hands on me, smelling her, being enveloped by her mouth. I want her to simply be pleased with me
I grab my phone and text "good morning." It doesn't matter that she is here. It doesn't matter that I will see her in less than five minutes. It only matters that Ms. Carol wishes a text from me upon my waking.
I lean in the doorway just watching Ms. Carol. Her already thin frame is baring the brunt of the chaos Frank's heart attack has caused. Her white silk tank and boxers hang loosely around her. Her shoulder blades are sharp, pushing out against the fabric. Her hair hangs in a single fat braid down her back, accentuating how frail she has become. It is interesting being a member of this little family. Carol, Frank and Edward the triad that has fooled the world and built an empire.
I pull Ms. Carol into to my arms, resting them around her waist. Her head falls back against my chest. It's as if our bodies were built to mesh. My hard cock lies nestled between the cheeks of her butt. Her sigh is deep, soulful, heavy in her chest. I hold her resting against me for a long time time before she resumes cutting fruit.
I unfold my arms, kissing the top of her head. We're quiet together in the morning, so different from the constant chatter that accompanies a morning with Anna Marie. I pull two cups from the cupboard filling them with the steaming brew. I take them onto the balcony where we'll watch the sun rise over the riverfront. Ms. Carol follows shortly carrying two plates of food.
She takes deep long draws from her coffee cup, her fingers wrapped firmly around it. She picks at the fruit on her plate, ignoring both the Greek yogurt and almonds. "Ms. Carol, starving your body isn't going to help anyone." I dip her spoon into the Greek yogurt and try to feed her. I continue to try the entire time we are on the balcony, still she eats very little. My first responsibility is to simply care for Ms. Carol, something she often neglects.
I am doing up our dishes when Ms. Carol returns to the kitchen. She puts her arms around me resting her head against my back. Her breath is warm along my shoulder blade. Her hand wraps around my erection stroking me gently. "Jessie, I'll be going to your first spa appointment with you. After you finish the dishes, please dress exactly the way you were the first time I picked you up." Her voice is soft but stern, the tone that demands compliance.
Pulling on the too tight low rise jeans and mesh shirt brings the humiliation of walking the street slamming back. For the first time in as long as I can remember I am having trouble maintaining my erection. I run my hand over my tightly encased cock, pinching and prodding. It responds immediately, but wanes again as soon as I stop. It's only been six weeks, but I can no longer imagine going back to my life before Ms. Carol.
The spa is in an old Victorian house. The only identifier a brass plate below the door knocker that reads:
Master's Way
Private Spa
Members Only
Ms. Carol uses the knocker. She smiles at me, takes my hand, squeezes and gently caresses my palm. It's a move she often uses to reassure and relax me. I had not been worried before but now I am on high alert.
The door is answered by a young woman. She is dressed simply, a white silk blouse, a very short black skirt and five inch black pumps. Her long blond hair is in a high ponytail. Her nails are soft pink ovals. A silver medallion with the number 198 hangs from a thick chain around her neck.
"Good morning, Ms. Carol. It is nice to see you." We follow her down the hall as she speaks. "Mistress Naomi will meet you in the parlor shortly. Can I get you anything while you wait?" Her voice is soft and pleasant. She never looks at me or even acknowledges my presence.
"Thank-you Jewel. Some water would be appreciated." It is Ms. Carol's gentle pleased tone, she clearly has a soft spot in her heart for Jewel. I feel a pang of jealousy. It is my place to care for Ms. Carol.
The parlor furnishings are classic Victorian. The heavily upholstered ornate chairs and and couches give a welcoming air. Ms. Carol takes a seat in a wing back chair adjusting the round floral pillow to support the small of her back. She crosses her legs, wrapping them together, tucking her foot behind her ankle. Her arms rest gently crossed in her lap. I stand beside her not sure what is expected of me.
"Jessie, please kneel beside my chair." It's that tone. The one that is simply unquestionable. I take my position without hesitation. A blush and wave of humiliation passes over me. Ms. Carol has never given me a command in public. Kneeling at her feet, in this room, dressed as a common street whore, I am very self conscious.
"Mistress Naomi should be just as few minutes. The bell is on the table if you need anything else Ms. Carol." Jewel's tone is soft and submissive. She hands Ms. Carol the water and leaves.
It is only a couple of minutes before Mistress Naomi arrives. She is a small woman, barely five foot tall. Her dark hair is cropped close to her head in a Peter Pan cut. Her skin is a soft caramel color, it has a moist dewy quality. Her blue eyes are dark, almost black. Her gaze feels judgmental as it passes over me. If I could make myself any smaller I would.
Ms. Carol rises to meet her, they embrace warmly. This time it is Naomi's voice that is stern. "Carol, you are bone thin. This situation with Frank must be terribly stressful. Sweetheart you must eat." I am unprepared for the passionate kiss they share. Jealousy, seems to be running rampant in me. Mistress Naomi takes a seat in the wing chair next to Carol.
They continue to chat for the better part of an hour. It is the first time I have heard Ms. Carol truly relax and confide in anyone. I pay close attention without drawing attention to myself. My legs have fallen asleep and I am uncomfortable, but I will not break my position.
