"Hey I was enjoying that!" Felix protested as Fern Hurried her out of the slave quarters, through the mansion and into the vast garden without being seen.
"Oh you would, you've always been a show off," Fern held on to Felix's arm tightly as she pulled her behind a wall, out of sight.
"It's not my fault I like attention and people love me...."
"Shhh!!! Someones coming!" They both stood against the wall very quietly, almost scared to breath. It was Mistress Donna and Isobel. Panic over whelmed them and they darted into some nearby bushes, just in time.
"What was that?" Mistress Donna looked at the once moving bushes.
"Probably some birds or something. Look that bitch made a fool out of me and its gonna make me a fucking laughing stock with the whole fucking Order!"
"Calm down Isobel, someone may hear you."
"I don't give a shit, I've been a Mistress too long to let one little slut, especially THAT slut, think she can get away with such insolence!" Felix and Fern looked at each other, "How dare she..."
"Devilbliss...I mean Felix shush!" Fern put her hand over Felix's mouth. "Isobel please she's just a slave..."
"THAT THING," Isobel uttered those words with pure hatred. "that thing has dodged the authorities for I don't know how long, she's arrogant, disrespectful and someone needs to teach her how to behave like a slave! I've waited months to get my hands on that slave and bring her here just to see what all the hype is about."
"Well she's Klein's problem now," Mistress Donna put her hand on Isobel's shoulder.
"Tomorrow he is going away on a business trip, so her ass is mine for the weekend." Isobel smiled a wicked smile and Donna knew what she had in mind. Felix was absolutely livid and Fern was holding her back incase she may do something she would regret later on.
"Felix please restrain yourself" Fern said as the two Mistresses walked away laughing.
"She doesn't even know me! She doesn't know anything!" Felix raged as she struggled against Fern.
"Please tell me what this is about." Felix stopped struggling and looked at Fern.
"She tried to fucking chastise me and now she's pissed off because it didn't bloody work and now she thinks she can talk smack about me..."
"Jesus Felix." Fern looked at her friend in disbelief. "What?" "You cant talk about a Mistress like that! I mean listen to yourself. You've gone totally wild. You wouldn't even dare to say things like that before...."
"And that's because I've got a fucking backbone!" Felix shouted at her and stormed out of the bushes, walking across the vast lawn toward the mansion.
"Excuse me?" Fern went after her.
"Yeah that's right, you're a total slave to them, too scared to stand up for yourself and you know why? It's because you like it! You like people walking all over you, You like kissing their asses!"
"That's because their my Masters..." Fern grabbed her arm.
"And its just easier doing as your told isn't it!" Felix spat and pulled back her arm. Fern just stood rooted to the spot, not quite registering what Felix just said. Felix turned back to look at Fern with tears in her eyes. "I'm tired Fern. Tired of fighting a battle I'll never win." Crying, Felix dropped to her knees with her head in her hands, engulfed by her own sadness. Fern knelt down beside her.
"Then stop fighting Felix, it's okay." Fern held her tight.
"I'm so confused." Felix whispered. "I don't want to be a slave, but I cant live my life any other way." Fern pulled her up and held Felix by the shoulders.
"Felix look at me, you're my best friend and I want you to be happy, you need to stop kidding yourself, you're a slave, a really awesome slave, hell your worth ten times more than me, but it means nothing unless you accept your destiny. I know its hard since you lost your Master, but you owe it to him, he saw something in you that no one else did. Don't give up this life now." Felix wrapped her arms around Fern.
"I miss him."
"I know you do, just promise you will give this a try? Please?"
Felix looked up at the sky, the sun was setting and birds were flying overhead. Then she looked at Fern.
"Ok." Felix wiped the tears from her eyes.
