I woke up with Kerin still sleeping soundly in my arms. I managed to look at my watch and noticed that it was almost 3:00 PM. We had been asleep for a few hours already. I gently woke Kerin up by kissing her face and nibbling on her neck. She let out a light moan and smiled without opening her eyes. Then she spoke, her English accent making me melt "Mmmmm, Master, I feel so comfortable in your arms."
I smiled and kissed her lips. "I am glad you feel comfortable Love, but it is time to wake up sleepyhead. We have many things to discuss this afternoon and evening." I ran my hands through her hair as she opened her eyes and started to stretch her legs in my lap. She finally stopped stretching and kissed me as she tried to stand on her own. I held her hips as she gained her footing.
"We can discuss anything you desire Master, but first, may I use the restroom?" she asked.
I pointed the direction to the bathroom as I replied, "Over there Love, second door on the right. Make sure you clean yourself well. You never know what desires I may have in the next few hours. I winked at her as she smiled back at me. She turned and headed towards the bathroom.
I tended the fire and prepared some fresh fruits for us as she was in the bathroom. I also prepared us some tea. I placed two glasses and the bowl of fruit onto an ornately scribed platter that read in script letters "To Be Submissive Is Heavenly, To Serve Your Master Is Divine" I placed it on the small table in front of the sofa.
Kerin returned a few minutes later carrying the towel she used to dry herself off with. She noticed the platter of tea and fruit on the table and smiled. She draped the towel over a chair and without saying a word, she knelt down in front of me between the sofa and the table and wrapped her arms around my knee. I leaned down and kissed her as I reached into the bowl and took a slice of apple from the bowl. I bit the slice and then held the rest of it out for Kerin. She looked at me and smiled a vixen sort of smile and then licked the piece of apple without taking her eyes off me. I grinned as she then pulled the piece out of my fingers and ate it.
"Master, I would have prepared this platter for us if had you told me to do so," she said.
"I know Love," I replied. "I will not always be wanting you to serve on me hand and foot Babe. I will also like to spoil you at times."
She smiled and kissed my knee. "I will surely enjoy when you spoil me Master."
"Kerin," I started, "We have to discuss something about the group now. My collaring you may sort of complicate things for you and the rest of the group. See, I don't want to share you with anyone my Love. There are some Masters and Mistresses that will take advantage of you if my intentions with you are not clear. With that in mind, I need to impose some restrictions on you with the group."
She looked at me with some concern. "What do you mean Master? Would they not respect that I am under your care and guidance?" she coyly asked.
I replied to her, "Unfortunately Love, most angels are considered group property unless otherwise stated by the Master or Mistress who collars them. For this reason, I am going to make up a card that you will show to other Masters or Mistresses should they be calling on your services and I not be around. It will have my signature on it and they should respect that."
Her face showed a sigh of relief as I said that. "What will be on this card Master?"
I spotted a small notebook and a pen on the nightstand and told Kerin to retrieve it for me. She rose and retrieved the notebook and returned without a word. I took them from her as she settled back on her knees in front of me.
I started to write and jotted down and opening statement. I then read it aloud to Kerin. "My Master and leash holder is Sir Derrick. He is my True Love, Guardian and Protector! He has asked me to provide this card to anyone requesting anything from me. This card describes my Limitations and Restrictions."
She smiled as I finished reading. "Straight and to the point it is Master" she said.
I started off by writing that I am her one and only Master. She is not to be included in sex play without my permission. I also stated that she is not to be punished in any manner from anyone, except me. She does not be put in her place as she already knows where her place is -- By my side!
I had to come up with a safeword for her. I looked around the room for something significant but could not find anything. Then I remembered that the name of the manor was Orchid. I asked Kerin, "How about 'orchid' for your safeword my Love?"
She thought about it for a second and replied, "That is a lovely word Master. After all, we did consummate our relationship here in this lovely manor.
I wrote down 'orchid' as her safeword and closed the writing by having all problems taken up with me.
After I finished writing, I handed Kerin the notebook and let her read it. She read it carefully and then looked at me and smiled. She then said in a concerned voice, "These limitations are pretty clear Master. What do I do if someone does not want to abide by them?"
"There are not many Masters or Mistresses that will not respect that card My Love. I will tell you who they are and you are to avoid them at all costs. If for some reason you are not able to avoid them you will use your safeword. If they still do not cease, they will face my wrath should anything happen to you." I paused as I let that statement sink in. I then continued, "I will also introduce you to a couple of Masters and Mistresses who are my closest friends in the group. You will be able to trust and seek them out for protection when I am not there."
I leaned down and kissed Kerin on the lips. "Are those limitations alright with you My Love, or would you like them re-worded in any way?" I asked.
Kerin shook her head, "No Master, your words are clear enough. I couldn't have said it better myself. I am glad that you do want to share me with others. I only want to be devoted to you."
I smiled gratefully. "Good," I replied. "I will print this on a card that you can carry in your handbag or pocket. You will have a copy in the morning." I tossed the notebook aside and then leaned forward. "Now I will tell you about our rules" I said.
Kerin placed her arms on my knees and looked up at me to listen intently.
I started. "Rule number one. Whenever we are here at the manor, the galleries, shops or the garden, you are to address as me as Master. If you fail to address me properly while we are on these premises, you will receive a spanking consisting of five swats with this leather bound wooden paddle." I reached behind one of the sofa cushions and produced my paddle to show it to her.
She looked at the paddle with some concern in her eyes. She then put her head down as she said, "Oh that will be easy Master."
I slapped the paddle against my hand and then replaced it behind the cushion. "Rule number two. You are never to wear knickers or a bra unless I specifically tell you to wear them. If I find you break this rule, you will receive ten swats from the paddle I just showed you."
"Master?" she questioned.
"Yes my Love?" I answered.
"Forgive me Master, but why ten swats for an underwear infraction and only five for misaddressing you?" she asked.
"I can make it ten for each if you wish my Love," I stated.
"Oh no Master! I do not wish that" she quickly replied as she reached down and rubbed her ass with one hand.
