Kristin wiped her face clean. She may have been red-eyed and puffy-faced, but she no longer felt like she was burning up with shame and the gnawing was gone from the pit of her stomach. She was strong. She would be proud even through indignity.
The girl assistant returned again, collecting her rag, and Kristin resumed her boxed arm position.
"Relax, sluts. Hands on thighs. Just listen carefully. We are going to do a quick position review." The assistant appeared and knelt beside the trainer, completely nude now, just like Kristin and her peers except for her close-cropped hair.
"Positions can be done either from the knees or from standing. We'll start with the kneeling ones, since you still haven't earned hind legs privileges. Remember, sluts, when in doubt, be on your knees and off the furniture.
"First position you know. It's the boxed arms Attention position. At Attention, your arms are boxed behind you, your back is straight, your eyes are straight forward, knees slightly apart. I will call each command, she will do it, then I will call it again and you will imitate her. You're already at attention, but I want you to observe her and tighten up. Arms square, cunt. Head up, tits. Stick those knockers out. Eyes straight forward, minou. No looking down. Good job, doll. Straighten your back, lilly. Very good. Look like statues, slaves. Pretty, decorative statues.
"And now we have Display, which you've also learned. Wait for the command lilly, what did I just tell you? In the Display position, your knees are slightly more than shoulder width apart. Hands behind your head, eyes forward, back straight. Display. See her, girls? Now you do the same. Display, sluts. Elbows back, cunt. You're not just resting your hands on your head, they're intertwined behind your head. Get those elbows back and stick those tits out. Good job, tits. I won't tell you to lift your eyes again, minou. Keep your back straight. Elbows back, doll. Show off the goods. Good job, lilly.
"Back to Attention. Smoothly, no hesitation. Let's try this again. Display, sluts. Attention. Very good.
"Thirdly, there's Present, which lilly demonstrated to you already. From your knees, you bend forward, place your right cheek on the ground. Knees slightly more than shoulder width apart. Reach back and spread your ass. Stick your holes in the air with no shame. Turn around, slut. Present. See, slaves? Her ass is right there to be inspected or used. Now all of you turn around. Keep your arms boxed, scoot around in incremental steps. Present, slaves.
"Ass up, cunt. Let's see that cute little pink hole. Cheeks further apart, tits. Don't just put your hands on them, spread them. Good job, minou. Keep that cheek flat on the ground, doll. Ass up, lilly. Don't jump, I just touched you. You should expect to have your tight little fuckhole touched or more if it's out in the open like that, shouldn't you? What are you moving for, doll? Did I touch you? Oh, I know, you want me to. Dirty little slut. Don't anticipate it. Attention. Turn back around. Don't look so disappointed, cunt, I'll be touching your ass soon enough.
"There's one more position lilly showed you yesterday, and that's Lean Back. doll showed us that one today, didn't you, doll? Knees wide apart, arch your back, put your wrists by your ankles. Lean Back. Look how that back arches, sluts. Make a bow of yourself. Lean back, slaves. Tits in the air, cunt. Move your wrists back a bit, tits. There we go. Now we can get at that hole, can't we? Good job, minou. Knees further apart, doll. You still sore there? Too bad. Make a bow, lilly. Better. Back to attention.
"So now we've gone over the positions you learned already. Let's do a quick review. Attention. Display. Tighten up there, tits. Present. Don't turn around, doll, did I tell you to do that? Back to display, that means all of you, lilly. Now present. Better. Attention. Lean back. You're too tense, minou, you're shaking. Hold the bow and relax. There you go. Attention.
"At some point you're going to learn a form where you show all three holes using these positions like lilly did yesterday, but you've got to crawl before you walk. Now, I've got three more positions to teach from the knees, but right now I'll show you the command to Relax. When you're kneeling and I say Relax, put your knees almost together like they are now, rest your palms on your thighs, and cast your eyes and head downward. You can relax your back, but hold still. Relax. Not all of you, doll. Anticipate my command again and I'll belt your tits. Now look at her. Your hair is going to fall forward, which her hair is too short to. Just let it fall over your face. Relax, sluts. Excellent position. Now you can actually relax just a bit. You're all doing very well. Take a minute and get those muscles loose and that breathing calm. Three more positions from the knees."
Drilling positions was strangely soothing for Kristin in the same way that the yoga workout had been. She could shut off her mind and focus on her body's movements. The trainer's corrections were firm but not harsh, and she felt a warm little glow of pleasure every time he praised her for doing it right. An angry little thing in the back of her mind nagged that she shouldn't be happy to please the monster who had imprisoned and was brainwashing her, but she was paying too much attention to getting her positions exactly right to acknowledge it.
The girl with cropped hair in front of her had moved with a fluidity and grace that Kristin envied, and she could see muscles under the skin like a dancer's. Kristin wondered if she had been a dancer or gymnast before being kidnapped or if she'd been trained to move so elegantly. Her conscience chided her for being jealous of the shorn and wretched creature. After all, what was to admire about being a completely broken sex slave? Her physical finesse wasn't an achievement to be proud of, but an asset based upon which she could bring more money on the auction block.
"Attention, sluts. I promised you three more kneeling positions. You'll just be briefly introduced to these, we won't focus on you knowing them until you've perfected the five basic ones.
"First, we have Worship. You've seen this one, but she's going to show you again. Watch for now, then on my command. Worship. As you can see, she's leaned all the way forward with her stomach against her thighs and her arms outstretched, face down. Reach is the key to doing this one elegantly. Reach out as far as you can. Leave some space so I can fit my boot in and you can worship that.
"Worship, sluts. Reach. Don't stick your ass so high in the air on this one, lilly. You're not showing off your holes. Want me to come poke your ass again? This position is about lowering yourself and worshiping your owner like the god he or she is to you. I'm going to come by and check every one of you, and if you please me, I'll grant you the privilege of licking my boots. After I let you, you'd better remember to thank me.
"Head down, cunt. You can rest your forehead on the ground, you don't have to be all stiff-necked like that. Good. Now you've already licked my right boot, so you can have the left one this time. Get that tongue all the way out. Lick it like you love it."
Kristin's forehead was on the ground as directed, so she couldn't see the action, but she could hear the girl called "cunt" say "Thank you, Sir." She shuddered a bit at the thought of having to not only lick his filthy boot while being verbally abused, but thanking him for it.
