When I returned home, Lyndsay took it easy on me for the first few days. Julie has missed me and wanted to spend time with her best friend. We reconnected by swimming laps in the pool, watching television together, chatting endlessly, going window shopping and of course having shower sex, which now seems to be Julie's favorite way to achieve orgasm.
On my fourth day back home, Lyndsay told me that she'd be interviewing candidates for a new maid/disciplinarian and she wanted to make sure I'd be there for all interviews.
"Of course," I said obediently.
"Nervous?" she asked.
"Oh yes," I confirmed, "my heart is pounding."
This was true, I was nervous and my heart was pounding like a Buddy Rich drum solo, however, what I didn't mention was the fact that my panties were becoming soaking wet as I dwelled upon the possibility of a new cruel woman in my life to oversee and discipline me.
The first applicant was a young blonde woman who was about my age, my height and my build. I think her name was Cerie (or possibly Siri). She was very attractive, however; it quickly became apparent that she wasn't right for the job. Lyndsay's mom had placed an ad on a very exclusive BDSM website advertising for a dominatrix/maid to oversee and discipline me. Cerie seemed to think that the job she was auditioning for a part in a movie.
I think she was on drugs.
The second applicant was a tall, athletic woman named Natalya. She understood that we were hiring her to be a maid/disciplinarian and she had no problem punishing me. She claimed to have experience punishing naughty girls, however she was opposed to me being naked.
"If she takes her clothes off, it's too much like prostitution," Natalya insisted.
"I'm a good Catholic and I'm not going to have sex with my wards, no matter how much you pay me."
The first few candidates were huge disappointments; however, Mrs. Brie was of the opinion that we'd find a good candidate if we just persevered.
On the third day, we interviewed Ms. Knauss.
I never learned Ms. Knauss's first name. She was very formal when dealing with me and seemed very intimidating. She was 5'11 in her bare feet, and in heels she was more like 6'2" or 6'3". I'm 5'9", which is tall for a woman, but Ms. Knauss towered over me.
"I have twelve years' experience supervising and disciplining young women like Gwen," Ms. Knauss told Lyndsay and her daughter, "I can be as strict with her as you wish."
"We had a program in mind of strict rules and harsh punishments," Mrs. Brie explained, "Gwen is my daughter's girlfriend or lover or whatever the kids are calling it these days, but Gwen isn't like other girls. She needs rigid discipline, cruel punishments and authoritarian women watching over her or else she doesn't feel loved."
Ms. Knauss turned her gaze to me, and her eyes seemed intense and challenging. I felt an irrational urge to recoil from that and run out of the room, but I resisted that urge and remained where I stood.
"Is that true, Gwendoline?" Ms. Knauss, "Do you require strict rules and cruel punishments in order to feel loved?"
My heart pounded forcefully in my chest and I felt intimidated by her by her gaze. Something about her just made me feel panicky, like a rabbit that just discovered it was being hunted by a wolf, but I tried to force down that irrational sense of panic and I replied, "Yes, Ma'am."
"You appear frightened," Ms. Knauss observed, "do I frighten you?"
"Be honest with her," Mrs. Brie urged, "It could be very helpful if Ms. Knauss understands your emotional state."
"You seem very severe and intimidating, Ma'am," I admitted, "like a wicked stepmother."
"Like from the story of Cinderella," Lyndsay added helpfully.
"And is that not what you want, dear?" Ms. Knauss inquired, "a wicked stepmother who shows that she cares for you by giving you strict rules and harsh punishments?"
"Oh, yes Ma'am," I confessed, "but I'm sort of a mess. I want these things, but I'm also frightened by them."
Ms. Knauss laughed like a villain in a Disney movie and I knew she was going to get the job. Lyndsay and Mrs. Brie continued to ask about her qualifications and methods, but I viewed all that as mere formalities. Ms. Knauss was the one we had been looking for.
* * * A day after Ms. Knauss was hired, I was told by Mrs. Brie that I had rules that I would need to follow from now on.
"Ms. Knauss will give you a list," Mrs. Brie explained, "I suggest you read it and commit it to memory."
I glanced at the list and was dumbfounded. It was a very draconian list. Ms. Knauss was to be informed of where I was always. If I failed to let her know where I was going or whom I was meeting with, I would be punished. My ideal weight was listed as 126 pounds and my ideal waist size was listed as 24 inches. If I exceeded my ideal weight or waist size, I'd be punished. I was to keep my legs and pubic area smooth and hairless. If Ms. Knauss found any stray hairs or stubble on me, I'd be punished.
The list went on and on like that, I was to be naked at all times when in Mrs. Brie's home, before I left the house any clothing I wore had to be approved my Ms. Knauss, when I came home I was required to immediately strip naked and report to Ms. Knauss for a very thorough and very humiliating body cavity search...allegedly to keep me from smuggling contraband into the house. And although Dasha and Ms. Knauss were household maids, I was given numerous household chores to do. And if I didn't perform my chores to Ms. Knauss's satisfaction, I'd be punished.
"This list seems very draconian," I observed.
"I think it's quite reasonable," Mrs. Brie said as she poured herself a mug of coffee, "Ms. Knauss, Lyndsay and I spent hours revising and updating the list until we felt we got it just right."
I could probably have challenged some of the rules and gotten them taken off the list, but in the end I decided to just surrender, submit myself to Ms. Knauss's authority and try to abide by every rule on the list.
Later that morning I was given a document to sign that said I consented to Ms. Knauss's authority and although I was Lyndsay's girlfriend and I was living in Mrs. Brie's home, Ms. Knauss was my official overseer and she could overrule Lyndsay and Mrs. Brie when it came to me. I doubted that that document was legally enforceable, but it had a potent emotional effect on me. It made me feel like I was Ms. Knauss's slave and that she had total authority over me.
A shiver ran through my body as I signed the document. I was unnerved by how much control I was handing over to Ms. Knauss, but I was also aroused. My whole body was overstimulated, and my head was reeling. It was as if I'd been injected with a large dose of adrenaline and aphrodisiacs at the same time.
For my first full day under Ms. Knauss's authority, it was decided I should spend the entire day in sexual frustration. After I had finished washing and grooming, I presented myself to Ms. Knauss for inspection. I stood in the dining room with my lags spread apart and my fingers laced behind the back of my neck while Ms. Knauss crouched down and carefully examined my thighs, calves, vulva and anus, verifying that I had done an acceptable job shaving myself and that there were no random hairs or stubble that I had missed.
"There are some small hairs around your anus that you missed," the maid informed me coldly, "You will have to be punished for that."
I went over Ms. Knauss's lap for a humiliating spanking, while Lyndsay and Dasha watched. Ms. Knauss was a lithesome woman with slender arms; however, she wasn't weak. When she spanked my bare bottom, she put a great deal of force behind each blow. Within seconds my bottom felt scalding hot and I squirmed across Ms. Knauss's lap as it got hotter and tenderer. It was my first time being spanked by the authoritarian woman and I wanted to make a good impression on her, however, within seconds I was writhing uncontrollably and sobbing like a little girl.
"Dasha, take this naughty girl upstairs," Ms. Knauss said imperiously, "shave the spots she missed and then bring her back to me."
Dasha helped me to my feet and escorted me upstairs to the bathroom. She had me bend over the sink and spread my legs while she shaved away the errant hairs that I had missed. It was humiliating to be groomed by Dasha this way; however, I found the humiliation to be shamelessly arousing.
"If you wish, I can do this for you every day," Dasha offered, "Your bottom is very red right now, and maybe I can save you from that in the future."
I thanked Dasha for her kind offer, and we agreed that she would assist me in shaving every day.
Ms. Knauss inspected me again and complimented Dasha on a job well done.
