Miss Coerator beckoned, Hannah moving as swiftly as she could, the wand buzzing between her thighs, just enough to warm her up without getting her off. They entered a long stretch of stone hallway, barely lit by the light from the main dungeon. Miss Coerator's heels struck against flagstones, Hannah trying to keep up.
'Now, my dear, with your heels you should be able to reach this.' She tapped a metal sconce, containing a wax taper. Hannah shuffled closer, Miss Coerator watching her expectantly. She had to stretch, even with her heels, managing to get the candleflame close enough. The taper flickered as it was lit, shedding a slight aura of light on the surroundings.
A trickle of wax overspilled the plate, falling down onto Hannah's breasts, the belts tightly bound and making them swell. It burnt, but only for a moment before cooling into a thin skin, binding the flesh beneath, flexing slightly as she breathed. Miss Coerator's breath tickled the back of her neck, as her slender fingers twisted and pulled at Hannah's hair, tying it into a bun. 'There we go.' She kissed Hannah's back. 'I wouldn't want you to burn your hair, my dear. Now, keep moving. This passageway is a loop, so we'll return to the dungeon.'
She slapped Hannah's backside, the motion making the wand judder, and making Hannah twitch. Wax slopped the other way, falling onto her palms, burning and stinging the flesh, making her shudder again before she got herself under control. Miss Coerator was out of sight, one hand squeezing a buttock, her scent strong, even over the candle, as Hannah started to move again.
The floor was rough and uneven flagstones, but the heat of the candle was getting more painful now. Hannah flexed her palms, the wax breaking apart, some shedding to the floor.
'I do hope you're not making a mess, my dear.' Miss Coerator's voice came from close behind her, nails tracing down her back, not quite scratching.
The gag blocked Hannah's mouth as she tried to apologize, the nails making her want to shiver, the pooling wax showing that to be a bad idea. 'Oorry!'
Miss Coerator's hand cracked against the other buttock. 'The next taper, my dear. Get to it.'
Hannah tried to accelerate, both to get the work done, and to escape the spanking and the nails. Through the stinging flame of the candle, she could make out the sconce, barely visible in the darkness. It was next to a stone archway, what looked to be a cell, iron bars still in place.
As she approached, Miss Coerator strode past her, looking into the cell. As Hannah strained herself, stretching upwards towards the wick, Miss Coerator shook her head ruefully.
'Ah, Harriet. Your unfortunate predecessor. She had promise, but ultimately failed to deliver. Fetching enough, and not wholly useless, but quite unsuited to any responsibility. Should you prove yourself worthy of becoming my head maid, then perhaps you could be responsible for continuing her training.'
Hannah stretched up, holding the candle in place long enough to light the taper, wick catching light. She sighed, the staggered, wax spilling down her breasts and hands, making her hiss at the sudden, stings of heat, as the wax dried and full into a tight embrace of her body. Miss Coerator reached out and hooked her through her collar, pulling her close, ignoring the spilling of further wax onto flesh, forcing her to look into the cell.
'For now, she is purely a display piece.'
Inside the cell was a glass case, like the one the statue of Miss Coerator had been in. Except this one was occupied by a person - a young woman was in there, wrists bound to a bar at the top of the case, weight also supported on her ankles, locked to another bar along the bottom, stretched between those two points, without any other contact with the world, thick headphones blocking out sound. A metal gag had been locked around her mouth, "Harriet" engraved into the metal amongst a pattern of thorns. Her eyes were hidden behind a thick leather blindfold, a chunky posture collar around her neck holding her head in position. A vibrating wand was held between her legs by a strap, with a controller on the outside of the case.
'Would you like that, little maid? To have an underling of your own? I have already managed to eliminate most of her more rebellious tendencies, although you would probably need to keep an eye on her. And, of course, if she were to err, then I would have to punish you for poor management as well. Now, come along, my dear, you still have work to do.'
She flicked the controller for Hannah's wand, kicking it up a few notches, just for a moment. She squeaked, trying to scuttle forward, ignoring the pain of the wax on her breasts and hands. As she advanced, she noticed the cell had a door, currently swung open, with a heavy-looking lock. Maybe she could push Miss Coerator into one, and lock her in?
Mercifully, the next sconce wasn't far, although it was higher up, with a stone block next to it. Miss Coerator had returned to walking behind her, and the collar meant she couldn't look around without turning her entire body. She stepped forward, carefully placing one heeled boot onto the block, the thing at least study enough not to shift beneath her. With her legs spread, the wand was pulled even more tightly against her sensitive sex, spasming into life, making her shake. Wax splashed again, now slopping further, falling between her fingers and gumming them together, even more falling onto her breasts, as she shook and wobbled. It was only with an effort that she was able to get her other foot onto the block as well, shifting forward towards the taper, carefully shuffling so as not to fall off the edge.
She jumped with a nervous squeak as something rigid and cruel pressed into the small of her back, Miss Coerator's voice, smooth and sharp, came from behind her. 'Very good, my dear. Do keep showing such initiative and I'm sure we will have a long and satisfying relationship.'
