Humming to himself, the Captain swung down the stairs to the lower deck of the yacht to the doctor's rooms. He was pleased to see one of the girls already strapped to the examining table. The other one crouched nervously in the holding cage.
"Have they been any trouble, Doc?"
"No, not at all," Doc said softly as he pushed a needle into the girl's arm and drew a tube of blood, "Meek as kittens. I take it you had a bit of a demonstration upstairs."
"Yes, I have one hanging off the back deck for you to see later. What do we have with these two?" He stroked the leg of the bound girl, aroused by her whimper. Still, her fear did not make him want to continue with her, but to return to Kate upstairs.
Doc withdrew the needle and put a bandage on the spot, "You caught yourself sisters and their cousin. This here is Heather, and our caged beauty is Melissa or Missy. Both girls are legal age, not virgins and clean of disease."
The Captain frowned, "Then why are you drawing blood?"
Doc smiled up at the Captain, "Because this little fish is pregnant and I want to check her hormone levels."
Heather whimpered and looked away, blinking back tears.
The Captain smiled. He just found a market for this one. Solange was always on the lookout for healthy, fertile girls. He would have to give her a call later and see what her opening offer would be. Unless she got cocky, she would have a pretty easy ride of it until Solange got her hands on her.
"Heather, are you afraid?" he asked in his gentlest voice.
Heather looked at him with frightened eyes and whispered, "Yes… yes, Sir."
"Were you planning to get rid of the baby?"
"Yes, Sir."
"Is that what you really wanted to do, or is that what you had to do?"
She looked at him, her eyes searching his, "Father said it's what I had to do."
"You won't need to get rid of the baby now. I know today has been frightening, but neither I nor my men will harm you as long as you obey. You have my word on that." He patted her leg kindly. He wasn't about to tell her that she wasn't going to be able to keep the baby after it was born, of course.
"What about me?" Missy asked, crawling to the edge of the cage.
The Captain walked over to her and crouched down to look at her eye-to-eye, "Honestly, right now, you aren't half as valuable to me as she is."
Missy looked offended, "But she is just a little tramp that got herself knocked up!"
Talkative little cunt, he thought. "That may be true, but in this business, that makes her worth quite a good deal of money. Tell me, Missy, what is your cousin like?"
There was a rattle of the chains and a small huff. The petulant tone made it clear that she didn't want to talk about her cousin, "Kate's an ass. Father made us bring her. He said she would be a good influence on us."
"And why is that?" he prompted.
"He thinks she's better than us. She's got character or something. But you saw her," Missy whined, "She fought you and wouldn't obey. I'll obey you; you can trust me. You don't need to chain me up. I – I find myself drawn to you."
The Captain almost yawned at her blatant and pathetic attempt to seduce him. Still, it would be entertaining to see how far she would take it, "You seem reasonably trustworthy. Where can you go on my ship anyway? Would you care to have dinner with me?"
Satisfaction blazed in Missy's eyes, "I would be delighted."
"One of the men will bring you upstairs when it is time."
Doc helped Heather down from the table and unlocked the cage. She went into it almost gratefully, staying as far away from her sister as she could.
"I'll go with you and see how the examination goes on Kate," the Captain offered.
Doc nodded, gathering a few items and heading out the door.
The sun was setting on the horizon as they came on deck. Kate flinched at the sound of their approach. They both looked at her with professional care. The Captain knew he had not made her off limits. Passing crew would have freely felt her body, teased her as was their right, while checking to make sure she was in no danger from her position. They were a well-trained crew and knew how to handle the merchandise. Of course, Kate would not have known that their main concern was her well-being. She only knew that man after man had come by and run his hands over her body like he owned her, suggesting lewdly what he wanted to do with her when it was "his turn," and then leaving her hanging there in ever increasing discomfort. It was no wonder she flinched.
"Hello there, Kate," The Captain whispered in her ear from behind, caressing her firm ass. "The Doctor has come to give you a quick physical. I am going to untie your feet. If you even so much as twitch the wrong way, I will make the cattle prod earlier look like child's play. Have I made myself clear?"
Slowly, Kate nodded. She felt the knife cut at the plastic that bound her ankles together. She wanted to shake her legs just to feel them move, but she held still as she felt the Captain move around to face her. She watched him warily as he took out a handkerchief and wiped away the drool from the sides of her mouth where it had oozed out from the gag. She was confused by the gentleness of the action.
Doc put cuffs on each of her ankles and then pushed her legs open wide with a spreader bar. He ignored the startled moan of fear. The Captain put his fingers under her chin and forced her eyes to his. He watched her eyes hungrily, seeing each reaction as Doc examined her.
"Can't do this in a well lit office, can we? No," he muttered, "Got to make me crawl around… hmmm… interesting."
The Captain's eyes never left Kate's, "What?"
"Good catch, Sir. This one's still cherry."
He watched a blush travel over her skin and tears well up in her eyes. God, she was making him hard. He let himself imagine taking her tonight, but that would spoil the price he could get. No wonder she fought so hard. Perhaps she was a religious type, saving herself for marriage. No matter, she would be kept until they got to base and he would set up a one night use auction for her. He let the doctor finish before he spoke again.
"If I let you down, are you going to fight me?"
Resignedly, Kate shook her head.
"Good girl," he stroked her cheek with his thumb, his eyes boring into hers, "If I take out the gag, are you going to curse me?"
Again she shook her head.
He removed the gag first and then the spreader bar. He then gently lowered her to the deck, letting her rest there while he put away the items. He came back and knelt by her, lifting the thick braid and slipping a leather collar around her neck. It locked with a snap that made her moan softly.
Kate lay in a daze of pain and confusion. Was he going to rape her now? She reached up to touch the collar and he caught her wrist before she could touch it and locked a leather cuff around it. She hurt so much that she didn't think she could stand being tied up again.
"Please…Captain, Sir…Please. I'm not fighting."
"I know," he replied, locking her other wrist into the matching cuff. "This won't hurt, Girl. I am going to take you to dinner and then put you down for the night. But you will be cuffed as it pleases me."
With ease, he slipped a leather belt around her waist and locked it on, fastening the cuffs to short lengths of chain on it. The finishing touch was a leather and chain leash snapped to the front of the collar.
"On your feet, Girl," he ordered and stood, waiting.
Slowly and awkwardly, Kate struggled to her feet until she was standing dejectedly at the end of the leash. Without a word, she followed him into the spacious dining room where the men were gathering. The scent of spicy meat and vegetables filled the air and made her mouth water.
"Is she our dessert, Captain?"
"How about having her as an appetizer? We could spread her out on the table," suggested another.
"She's cherry, so you know what that means," the Captain said good-naturedly as he sat at the head of the table, indicating to Kate that she should kneel on the floor.
Several of the men moaned and one cursed. "Cap', I hear one's got a bun in the oven. Are we going to get any at all on the way home?"
