She woke first. He was curled up naked at her feet, as she had left him after she had released him from the plastic wrap cocoon last night. She had kept him in it for as long as she dared; finally removing his hood and cutting open the wrap after she had let him drink from her pussy. She had enjoyed both beating him and teasing him through the wrap, and then cutting little holes in it to tease and torment all his tender bits.
She was allowing herself to have hope for this candidate. The events she had planned for today would tell her more, a great deal more.
She glanced at the clock, and saw she had a little while to rest and reflect. She had had her way with him, and met with no significant resistance. He had desire and intelligence, but would he be able to juggle the delicate balance of personalities she required?
She needed a real man in her life for social functions and as an overall life partner. She wanted someone who could be presented with pride to her family, friends, neighbors, co-workers, and casual passers-by. He had to be a good man, fun to be with, and capable of both quick wit and intellectual discourse. He had to be helpful providing useful input for decision-making, yet ready to defer to her judgment...a good junior partner.
After months of e-mails and phone chats, she was pretty sure he was all of that.
On the other had, once they were behind closed doors, she needed him to be able to switch all that off and become trainable property, enslaved to her, completely soft and malleable, like putty in her hands. She wanted to bring out the soft and submissive side. She wanted to reach into his soul and extract his feminine side, expose it, nurture it, love it, and use it for her service and pleasure.
So far, he seemed open to that path...even willing.
What concerned her was his ability to handle the psychological stress of the process, and maintain a mental and emotional balance as the she reached deeper into his mind and soul. His missy persona might start leaking into his masculine persona, and she didn't want that. It had happened to a previous candidate, and that had ruined his value to her.
She needed both, and her slave would have to transition seamlessly from one persona to the other, almost on a moment's notice, and without leakage through the wall that would have to separate his two distinct halves.
Was he ready to handle that?
Was he ready to handle slavery? He was an experienced and skilled submissive, but was he ready to go past submission? Was he ready to be totally owned as her trainable property? Would he enjoy spending the rest of his life as her chattel? Or would it wear off after the initial excitement had died down?
Finally, could he handle an inter-racial relationship? There were all sorts of social pressures in a slat-and-pepper relationship generated by prejudice and bigotry that would manifest itself from both blacks and whites. Could he handle that, too?
Somehow, she had to determine the likely outcome to all of these questions before she collared him as a slave.
Today's events would tell her more. It was time to get things in motion.
She sat up, and gently stroked his brow. She was growing quite fond of him. She had to be to reveal so much of her own Dominant and sadistic sides. There were only a handful of men and women who she had trusted with that side of her. Sharing it with had seemed so natural, and had led her to go a lot further with him in the past thirty-six hours than she had originally planned.
She started running her fingers through his hair, enjoying the feel of it. He began to stir, and then opened his eyes.
"Good morning, pet," she said. "It's time to get up and serve your Goddess."
He smiled and nodded, and got out of bed and then knelt next to it. She had him repeat the drill from Saturday morning. He went to the kitchen to brew her coffee, serviced her as her toilet slave, delivered her first cup, and was finally released to "go potty" and brush his teeth. He returned to fetch a second cup for her, and then shaved and showered. He knelt naked as she showered, and then dried her whole body with his tongue. He helped her dress, and at her instruction, put on his street clothes over his corset, stockings and panties, after she had inserted the remote-controlled vibrating egg into his anus.
As they chatted casually about the weather and their mutual desire the read The Times and catch up on the news, they walked up to Sixth Avenue, and she led them north a couple of blocks to a discount clothing store.
"At the rate we're losing panties and stockings, we'd better stock up," she said. He laughed and agreed. She made him search through the panties and stockings for the right colors and sizes as she had fun with her remote control. He took it with grace and humor. There was just a wince and then a grin. They ended up buying a dozen panties, all in either black or red, some silky, some lacy. They bought an equal number of pairs of stockings...also black or red.
He carried the shopping bag as they exited the store and headed downtown toward her favorite sidewalk café. It was almost noon, and she decided she wanted brunch. They stopped at a newsstand and bought a Sunday Times, and in a few minutes they were being seated at an outside table. They pulled out the magazine section and began to collaborate doing the crossword.
When the waiter came by with two menus, she asked him for a third because she expecting another guest. He looked at her with a raised eyebrow, and she smiled sweetly and said "It's a surprise, baby."
A few moments later, Cheryl arrived and joined their table. She joined their joint effort at the crossword until the waiter arrived. Deborah ordered for all three of them. It surprised him that she ordered an omelet for him, and even a Bloody Mary. She glanced at him as she handed the menus to the waiter and said, "I'm full of surprises, aren't I?"
"One after the other," he replied, and they all laughed.
"You will find that virtue is always rewarded by me," she said with a significant smile. Cheryl giggled, and he smiled and nodded.
They ate and drank and laughed and worked on the crossword together. He was amazed by how much good, clean fun he was having. He was feeling a bit high from the effects of the Bloody Mary...ironic choice on her part...which she had insisted that he gulp down almost as fast as if it were a glass of pure tomato juice. On his empty stomach from his 36-hour forced-fast, and given the physical exertion of that period, the alcohol hit his bloodstream fast and hard. He knew enough by now to know that she meant him to get tipsy, and she had a reason for wanting it.
