We didn't wait long in the driveway before a tall, athletic looking and well-dressed black gentleman in his mid to late thirties approached the taxi and introduced himself as our host. He told us that this would be our last opportunity to change our minds about participating in the day's activities before we entered the home. He asked again if we still agreed to obey every command from any of the Superiors from that point forward. He continued by saying If either or both of us did not agree to that simple premise, we would be given a taxi ride back to the drugstore with no hard feelings. I'm sure we both had second thoughts and some of the original misgivings were obviously still evident in both of us but we each felt that the promised adventure seemed to be worth the risk. Both Annie and I answered in unison that we agreed to our previously promised obeisance and, as soon as we had made that clear, we were led into the foyer of the estate-sized home where our hosts apparently lived. The gentleman added to his prior statement by saying that we would no longer be allowed to speak from that time forward unless we were required to speak by one of our Superiors, we were given permission to speak by our hosts or their guests or if we needed to respond to a direct question posed to either of us. He inquired if we understood the amended instruction and both Annie and I again assured him that we did.
I noticed that the taxi driver had not left the driveway, as of yet, but felt that he was simply waiting to see if we had changed our minds about attending the party or were not agreeable to any of the amended instructions just given to us by our host. Having completed this brief conversation in the protected area of the driveway, we followed the "host" into the foyer of the mansion.
Almost immediately upon our coming inside the home, the man startled me by straightaway commanding, "Terry, you will not need your clothing for the remainder of your stay here, so please take off your clothes." He said these words without hesitation as if he were asking if we had enjoyed our ride. His summarily directing me to strip caught me off guard and apparently I hesitated for a moment. We certainly had understood that we would be playing the submissive role on this Saturday but the command came so suddenly that I was somewhat stunned. We hadn't even been properly introduced and I was being treated so differently from Annie that the direction simply didn't instantly register. Also, because we were in a well- lighted room with windows that reached from floor to ceiling, the presence of the taxi driver sitting in his livery just outside the door and in my clear sight was even somewhat disconcerting.
My apparent hesitation did not go unnoticed and the gentleman reminded both Annie and me, "You are here solely for the entertainment of your hosts and our guests." Again addressing only me and ignoring Annie, he said, "Your clothing will not be required for any part of the remainder of that entertainment. We made it very clear to you that you were to be the sexual entertainment for this party. Part of that entertainment will include your being naked. I will enjoy your humiliation for starters; all of the guests will enjoy getting to know all of you both, later in the day." His voice remained calm as he made this statement yet the firmness in the voice was unmistakable.
