Outwardly, she appeared normal, smiling and chatting like any young woman, but her inner turmoil was growing. Her friends has begun to talk about what they would do when the school year ended, some mentioning university and others talking about jobs or maybe marriage. Victoria listened to their chatter and laughed with them, but slowly began to realize that none of these things were what she truly wanted. There was a part of her that wanted to be owned, possessed, bound and controlled. She felt ashamed of it, because it had been drummed into her head for years that men and women were equal and that women should be independent and strong.
Late one evening, she found herself in the corridor that led to the Headmaster's office. His last words to her repeated over the over in her head, "I can teach you things that most women will never learn in their entire lives, show you a way to live that will afford you more pleasure than you can imagine, but it has to be your choice... If you do choose to come back, it will be to stay. No changing your mind, no second chances."
The office door was unlocked and she entered, finding the room in semi-darkness, light by only the desk lamp. "Sir, are you here? I...I need to ask you..." The door to his private quarters opened and he came into the room, dressed more casually than she had ever seen him, barefoot, in black jeans with a white shirt, open at the collar and cuffs. "Victoria! I am surprised to see you tonight. What can I do for you?"
"Please Sir, I need to talk to you. I am so confused...." Tears began to fall as he guided her to a chair and handed her some tissues.
"What are you confused about, little one?
"Those things you said to me Sir...I just keep thinking about it. I know that I shouldn't want it, but I just can't help it. I can't help thinking.... I feel so different from my friends and I wonder if it's because... if it's because I am a weak person, someone who needs to be told what to do all the time.
His laughter startled her and she looked up at him, wondering if he was making fun of her. "You, Victoria, weak? I don't think so. It takes a strong person to know what they want and to get it. It takes a strong person to go against what is "normal" and make the decision, the choice, to submit to someone else."
She began to cry in earnest then and he waited patiently until her sobs tapered off and finally stopped. "Feeling better now, Miss Gracen?" She nodded, not looking up. "Is there anything else you need tonight?"
There was a minute of silence but finally, she slid from the chair onto her knees, assuming the posture he had taught her only a few weeks ago. "Please Sir, teach me."
"Are you sure, Victoria? I have told you that there is no going back if you come to me."
"I know, Sir."
"I am asking you one more time Victoria. Are you quite sure about this?"
Her voice was small but steady, as she looked up, meeting his eyes and replied, "Yes....Master."
"Come with me then."
His hand on the back of her neck felt reassuring as he opened the door to the next room. Entering, she was startled to see two people in the room, one of the Headmaster's assistants, and one of her own classmates, nude and kneeling at the man's feet.
"Victoria, I think that you have met my aide, Richard, and I am sure that you know Gina. The two of you have a geometry class together, don't you?"
"Yes Sir, we do, but I..."
"No more talking pet, unless I ask you a question. Do you understand?"
Victoria nodded and looked down in confusion, unsure what to do. Her eyes flicked back to Gina, who knelt unmoving, her dark skin glowing in the golden light of the room. Richard's hand moved to her breast, pinching the nipple and Victoria heard a slight gasp, but nothing more.
"Take off your clothes Victoria, lay them over on that chair and then come to me."
She moved automatically to obey him, her mind almost blank as she removed each piece of clothing, folding them neatly and placing them where he indicated. Returning to stand in front of him, she met his eyes briefly, then sank to her knees, her hands held behind her back, eyes cast to the floor.
"Richard, I plan to start each of Victoria's sessions with a spanking, just to remind her to be obedient. I know that you were about to punish Gina, so let us make one serve for both. Please have Gina come over here."
