"I saw that," He said to her, and she blushed deeply at having been caught. He had ordered her never to make eye contact with another man, and only with Him when He had directed her to do so. This seemed a simple rule to follow; a fair display of her modesty. And it is not only that she looks, but how she looks. Her bedroom eyes, that she knows full well she uses to seduce man, much the way she had looked at Him the first time. The look that says "oh how I would love to fuck you, even if my lips do not declare it." What point was it for her to belong to Him, if in her mind she allowed herself to belong to anyone? Betrayal only begins in the mind, and for Him that is betrayal enough. But if she so chose to act like the whore of any man than He could treat her as such.
"Perhaps I have been selfish with you. You obviously desire to be a whore so completely that anyone should be able to take you," He said.
"No, Master. No," she pleaded, in her mind begging Him not to think such things of her; her love was for Him and Him alone. The glance at the stranger was an accident; she had felt that man staring at her and her curiosity got the best of her. She told herself this; but somewhere within her she knew the shameful truth, and her wise Master was never the fool.
"My mind is made up," He said coldly, but there was still a hint of adoration in His voice.
The rest of the walk home was in silence, which was not unusual as He enjoyed the quiet and she was not to speak unless spoken to, and even then only in answer to His questions to her. His disappointment was tormenting her though, and the silence pierced her soul. Displeasure seemed to emanate from her Master, if only in her mind; but he was truly displeased.
The sound of shoes brushing against the concrete payment, or the humming of cars driving by seemed unbearably loud. Her mind raced wondering what to expect.
It seemed once they reached their home that the key entered the lock slowly, twisted sluggishly, and the door but only creaked open. His hand pressed gently between her shoulders guiding her inside, and she stood waiting as He turned His back to her to close the door quietly behind Him.
Facing her back again, a shadowy silhouette in the dark room, He pressed His hand down on her right shoulder and she sunk to her knees. Carelessly He caressed the side of he face and then walked past her, taking a seat on the other side of the room so that He was facing her. He sat for what seemed like eternity in complete calm, thinking.
How she wished to scurry to His feet and kiss them and beg forgiveness; but right now she dare not move. His slaves eyes remained cast down and even with such distance between them He was aware of how her body trembled slightly and the glisten of her eyelashes that were wet with tears. He was sure she was sorry, but something must be done about this. Somewhere inside she thought she really wanted to be a whore. There was only one way to show her that what she desired was truly only to be used by Him.
Finally, He spoke. "My dear one, I do not doubt your physical love and devotion to Me, but the desires you do not understand must be brought to light. The punishment for this offense would break both of us; but perhaps it would enlighten you in such a way that would increase your devotion to Me, and in that all would be forgiven. Do you understand?"
Unable to even speak, her mind racing, she nodded her head slowly. Though she was still quite uncertain of what He had in mind, she knew she would do anything for Him.
He paused a moment, then got up from His chair and walked over to her, slipping a finger under her collar, and hooking it to tug it slightly.
"I have never asked you this before, but this time I feel I must. Do you wish to surrender My collar? If not, you must be willing to submit yourself fully to your punishment."
"Your slave submits to any punishment You declare. Your slave is deserving of Your punishment, Master."
He dropped the slack of the collar, kissing her hair gently, and said, "Very good. Please retire to your place and remove all your clothing. I will come to you soon."
The girl waited from Him, kneeling at the foot of His bed, wondering how He would punish her. Could she sustain the pain for this? Would she be bound? Often He seemed to prefer not to, so that He could see her submit even in her punishment. To submit to the punishment was the best way to gain His forgiveness for her failure to submit.
Though she could not hear what was being said, she heard the quiet muffle of His voice between the walls. Making phone calls. Darkness fell outside the bedroom windows before He came for her.
He walked in to the room and sat in His bedside chair. "Come."
Over to Him she crawled quickly, eager to be near Him even in spite of her fear of the unknown punishment. Now she kisses His boots as she had been so eager to do earlier.
"Enough. We are having company. You will remain undressed."
Despite herself and her better judgment her eyes darted up towards His, pleading silently. He simply pressed her chin downward so that she was forced to look at the floor. "Keep your head down tonight, for you have no right to be proud, not even in being My slave, as you have failed as such today."
At these words she felt her heart shatter. What was worse, to be naked before all these strangers or to have disappointed Him so greatly? He braided her hair like a child's on either side of her head, weaving a ribbon through and attaching a bell to the end of the ribbons on each side.
"Wrists." His voice was so cold. Tears stung her eyes as she held her wrists out to Him, to which He adorned with many bangles that clanked noisily with the slightest movement. To her ankles He attached a string of bells. A string of three chains fell cross her cleavage, attached by a nipple clamp on each side, which left a dull constant ache that pinched sharply as he tugged on the chains between. Never before had she felt so naked as she did adorned with these bells and bangles and chains.
"Say nothing to Me, and dare not look at Me."
She followed Him downstairs, the main room having been rearranged. Seating was around the perimeter of the room, and in the center of the room was a single bare table with clips on the corners, and her Master's chair facing one of the ends of the table. Refreshments were out in the adjoining room on the dining room table.
"You are whatever our guests need tonight. Be it a servant, a pet, a place to rest their feet; and there will be witness and participants in Your punishment as well, when I am ready to issue it."
With that the doorbell rang. The first set of guests had arrived. There were three men and a woman, all dressed very nicely; albeit casual. They dropped their coats on her without giving a glance and her Master brought them over to another table she hadn't noticed yet. All of His toys for her were on display. The woman grabbed a few things from the table as the girl put their coats away,and with that the men moved to sit on one of the couches. The woman pinched her arm cruelly as she passed, before sitting down as well.
"So this thing is to serve us as we please?" The woman asked, a shrewd smile crossing her face as she tossed her loose red curls back over her shoulder. The men chuckled lightly, talking quietly amongst themselves.
"Yes, she is whatever you need," her Master said with indifference, taking a seat opposite the room from His guests.
