Chapter 6: The Demonstration
The day of the demonstration finally arrived. Matt walked into her room and sat on the end of the bed. Ginny opened her belly for him, but he told her he was here to get her ready for her big day. He bathed her and perfumed her, but only after placing the rings over her teats so that her milk could not escape. She would not mount the machine until at least a couple of hours after her normal milking time. He warned her that her udders would feel painful and she would long to feel the machine suck the milk from her. Ginny felt nervous and wondered whether she could endure more delay in her milking time. Yet Matt told her this would help her submit to the machine in front of all those strangers who would be there to watch. He reminded her of all the lessons he had taught her and then told her to turn around and stretch on the bed with her ass presented to him. He then proceeded to use the crop on her, telling her that this would keep in her mind how important it was for her to show these men what a good sow she was now.
As Matt pulled her along by her chain, Ginny could hear the echo of the voices of many people who had collected in the room she was being led towards. Matt led her out into the room where the lights shone brightly, temporarily blinding her. Matt held tightly to the chain, which was attached to the ring on her collar, and Ginny walked a few paces behind him. He had instructed her to keep her head bowed, but as soon as she had entered she had instinctively looked up. There was the machine, its presence seemed to dominate the room, and as she came face to face with it once more, Ginny felt an inner shrinking. All her preparations this past week had been to ready herself for mounting this monster, and now she felt like the meek little lamb being dragged towards the alter where she would be publicly sacrificed. Below the tilted rest on which she would be laid stood two large, empty, glass jars waiting for her to fill. They looked huge to her, and she feared she would never fill them. The expectation upon her seemed too high.
She turned and saw a bank of seats raised up on staging. There must have been around twenty men, all seated in their suits, yet the lights were too bright to see any of their faces. There was a hush as she had been led into the room. All eyes were upon her and conversation seemed to falter. Ben was standing over by the machine. He had obviously been introducing the machine to them. Matt led her towards her husband, and Ben looked to her and said, "Are you ok?"
Matt stepped quickly into their line of sight and whispered to Ben, "Don't talk to the sow. She needs milking and you will confuse her if you don't treat her like one. She has been prepared."
With these words he handed over the chain to Ben and went and sat with the others. Ben was taken aback by Matt's words, but recovered himself and turned to his audience.
"We bring the sow across to the machine, or they may already be lined up before it waiting their turn. This speeds up processing and reduces anxiety as it knows what to expect." He led ginnysow over to stand before the machine. Ginnysow felt the bursting pressure within her chest, and longed to be mounted and to feel that release as her milk drained from her. And there it was, the public confirmation of her inferior status. It had not been a public admission wrung out of her through gritted teeth, beaten from her by the crop. It had just happened like that, while she stood meekly by listening to her husband as he introduced her as his sow to these people. Why should any one of these strangers have cause to doubt she was a common sow when she did not raise a voice of protest?
Ginny realised she had been wrong when she had said it didn't matter what they thought. This public unveiling of her as ginnysow, the pig brought in for milking, had a profound effect upon her. This was no longer a private little arrangement that only a few people at the farm and her husband knew. She may meet any one of these people when she was back as Mrs Ferrers. What could she do? They would know she was a sow and how could she protest then if she had not protested now? She would succumb to their commands and allow their use of her as a sow should. It was part of her training, and now it was part of her. Ginny felt crushed, her head bowed and a hot flush spreading over her. She was conscious of the weight in her chest and her own eagerness to get on with her public milking reinforced her own acceptance of the cow she was.
