He snapped His fingers and pointed to the ground as He sat down on the old wooden park bench. Following the command, i sat at His feet, looking at the ground in front of me. “Good boy,” He said softly, running His fingers through my hair.
It was a beautiful day, sunny but cool, a breeze making little ripples on the surface of the duck pond in the park. The air smelled damp and a little sweet, like fresh grass, a stand of trees around the fountain muffling the city noises. Master had taken His slave on a little adventure: a visit to a bookstore and mochas with whipped cream, a walk through the park, a picnic. He had also taken me along while He picked out a new riding crop, and i’d tried hard to be graceful when He tested them all on the inside of my arm.
A breeze rifled through the grass around me, bending the stalks and making them gleam; i inhaled the freshest air in the city. Master shifted forward and began to rub my shoulders. “My little slut,” He said lovingly.
The only other person in the park was a man sitting on another bench a short distance away, and as i idly watched him, it became apparent that he was watching back. He was older than i, dressed simply in jeans and a light jacket, thin-framed glasses drawing attention to high cheekbones and a broad nose.
“Do you see that man, boy?” Master asked me, slipping a finger beneath His collar, which i wore buckled tight around the base of my neck.
“Yes, Sir,” i responded.
He pulled me to Him by the ring of His collar and kissed me. He bit my lower lip hard, and i squirmed a little; He slid His fingers through my hair and pulled, bringing my head back and looking at me. i kept my eyes down as His gaze slipped over my short dark hair and full lips, His collar around my neck, my thin button-down shirt and black work pants, my hands folded in my lap. He let go of my hair and stroked my face.
The man continued to watch Master and me; how anybody could not watch my Master was beyond me. His was a commanding presence. He was tall and muscular, with broad shoulders, close-cropped black hair, deep brown eyes. i was proud to be in His presence, even prouder because of all the attention He attracted wherever we went. The man crossed his legs, shifting his body casually toward us. Master gestured for him to come over.
