Sherri awoke to a tapping on her door, light, polite, but present. Sherri upon waking thought to herself Robert, it was Robert. There was no sense of confusion, that normally accompanies a night in a strange bed, in a strange place, she was instantly aware of who she was, where she was, and him. The clock said 6:30 and he was at her door. She answered the tapping "Yes?"
"I'm afraid it's time to get up and exercise. I'm rather insistent about it I'm afraid, the workout gear is outside the door, please put it on and come down to the kitchen, we can exercise, and begin our day.
Sherri rose and first went to the bathroom, she was humiliated, wearing his shirt, she had masturbated like a dirty little slut, and she hated herself for it. She then moved the chair, and then opened the door. Hanging on the frame was another of those leotard things, and on the floor were running shoes. Her limbs were stiff, and she had some light bruises on her legs and ass, she would have assumed she would be one big bruise, from yesterdays beatings. She put the clothing on, and then put the shirt back on over herself. She was still tired, but refreshed enough to be thinking and she was struggling to find a flaw in his logic. Could he deliver was the final question, could he make her feel complete? Could he release her passions, and most importantly, could he save her life from the dreary existence it had become? She was ready to explore her limits, whatever that meant, and she was ready to be moderately obedient.
She went down to the kitchen and found him there, sipping coffee and watching the day brighten with the dawn. She took the coffee and then spoke saying "good morning, I wanted to ask you a couple questions, or I guess I wanted to tell you that should I take the bracelet, I don't want to be a whore, or a slut."
Robert laughed again, he actually found her and her ideas amusing. "A whore is defined as a woman who does something sexual for money. You haven't done anything yet, and have a new car, student loans paid off, and your house note is to be paid off. If you're a whore, you're a very good one, have revolutionized the industry." he chuckled "A slut, again by definition is someone, not just a woman, who sleeps with many different people, and that is prohibited by our agreement. We won't see anyone else for the two years." Robert shook his head and sipped coffee. "You're a slave, and you do things because your Master wishes them done, and you do other things because it will please your Master."
Sherri felt her mood lighten some, and that bothered her. "Isn't a slut someone who enjoys sex?" she asked him.
He shook his head. "That answers the question of who told you that the vagina was dirty. Definitely a grandparent." he paused thinking while he drank more coffee "To answer your question, no. During your grandparents generation, they had sex once a month, perhaps if the moon was dark enough, in the blacked out bedroom, probably with blindfolds on. The woman was supposed to lie there and be used, and that is how they believed they were supposed to behave. A throwback to the Victorian age and if they enjoyed it even once, believed they were dirty and wanton." Robert frowned "they denied who they were, and denied their own passions, and they tried to pass it on to the next generation. That generation was beginning to experiment with drugs and other things to open their minds. They at least recognized that the minds were closed, and the women started to enjoy sex, sometimes. The men had always enjoyed it, but a vast majority of men couldn't find the clit much less an erogenous zone if you gave them a GPS to guide them." his voice took on a mocking quality and sounded vaguely like the female voice from her own GPS "Turn left at the knee, continue up the thigh, turn right, recalculating, make a U Turn, recalculating."
Sherri laughed at this thought, remembering her last boyfriend and his fumbling attempts to finger her. He had hit everything but the fucking clit she had raged at the time, feeling dirty while he did bring her a small amount of arousal.
Robert continued "The women were ready to enjoy sex, but the men were ill prepared to give pleasure to their mates, so the sex toy industry exploded." Robert glanced at his watch and then began to move "I have an exercise room on this floor, if you would like to join me."
Sherri hesitated, considering what he had said, it was true she knew from classes in school, that what he said was true, and she realized that although she had known the history of her Grandmothers generation, she hadn't put it in context with her own upbringing. I'm not a slut she told herself for the first time in years, she was just a woman, who had some bad information shoved into her ear, daily she raged. Her Grandmothers voice was screaming at her in her mind, but it was losing volume. It was like a whisper from too far away, she knew it wasn't gone, but was diminished for now. He had done that, with words, explained away her fear like it was nothing in a few hours of discussion yesterday and today.
Sherri looked up at him and saw him in a new light. She was ready to trust him, ready to forgive herself, and ready to submit. She looked and asked "May I have my bracelet Master?"
Robert had watched the light bulb pop over her head. He looked at her, and then asked "Are you sure you want it?"
Sherri nodded at him, and said "Yes Master." The words came naturally to her now, she wasn't fighting to say it, and although demeaning, it seemed somehow appropriate.
