Underneath my flowy sundress, I could feel the vinyl straps of my harness digging into my fleshy torso.
I should lose weight
, I told myself, for the thousandth time since Carly had made me hers.
For her sake
. But really, I was simply embarrassed that small folds always puffed out around the straps which she insisted on pulling as taut as possible across my naked body. I had no illusions that losing weight would make me more appealing to her -- I knew she was only interested in the power she held over me, not in reciprocating the head-over-heels love in which I had fallen.
She was, as always, several paces ahead of me, and moving further away in the foot traffic every second. I concentrated my gaze on her perfect peach of a rear end, mercifully displayed in some very tight velour shorts, and tried not to be conspicuous about licking my lips. The flawless globes of her ass shifted to the left and right as she walked at a pace she knew I had trouble matching; sweat began to bead under my mousy brown fringe, even though the day wasn't warm. But looking at her, and feeling the straps she had cinched tight across my body in the café restroom only a few minutes before, only exacerbated my shortness of breath as I stumped hard to try to catch back up with her on legs that felt mammoth compared to her slim, tapering gams.
Not gams
, I scolded myself disparagingly.
What are you, a gangster in a noir movie? If anything, only what she has deserve to be called legs. You can call yours pillars.
The vinyl cut viciously into my jiggling breasts as I tried to speed up to match her pace, and I could feel myself whimper, although nobody around me seemed to notice. I wanted to call out to her to ask her to wait for me, but she had strictly forbidden me from calling her anything but Mistress, and I couldn't say that in public.
Suddenly she darted down off a side path, out of the flow of heavy traffic, and disappeared from my sight.
I broke into a panicked run, terrified that if I lost sight of her for even a moment, she would disappear entirely and then only communicate with me the rest of the afternoon in cruel, demanding, jeering text messages. She'd done it before: once she had forced me to stand alone in a mall elevator with a vibrating wand up my pussy and ride it up and down, smiling at any woman who got on but never saying anything, until I had orgasmed twelve times. This particular mall had glass elevators, and people on every floor could see me as I rode. My knees had buckled by the eighth orgasm, and I was sure the next person to get on the elevator was going to call paramedics. I don't know how, but I staggered back up to my feet, weeping, and survived another three trips up and down while the cursed vibrator sent another five orgasms tearing through my body. I was jelly by the end of it, barely able to scrape myself out of the doors.
Very good, pet
, was all she texted me at the end of it, and left me alone to find my own way home, a sopping, worn-out, blubbering mess. I had sworn to myself then that I was done, that this capricious eighteen-year-old could not be allowed to have any more power over me, that I would block her number and ignore her at school and file a restraining order if she tried to come to my house again. But I did none of that. All she had to do was walk by my office the next Monday, quickly pull up her skirt to show me, and nobody else, black lace panties pulled tight against her puffy crease, and walk away, and she had me wrapped around her finger once more.
It was almost with a sense of fatalistic despair that I rounded the corner of the path in the park, puffing with more than the effort my out-of-shape body had put in to reach it. But she was sitting coolly on a bench, one arm stretched lazily out across its back, her eyes up on some tree branches. She barely flickered them over me as I came up to her.
"Down," she said. I gave a nervous glance around us -- there were still people streaming by not far away, a free concert was about to be held only a few hundred yards off, and the trees we were nestled in provided very little screen if anyone happened to look our way -- and she said it again, with a snap. I fell to my knees, wincing a little as they hit the concrete path. They were almost always bruised these days: whenever Carly saw fit to favor me with any alone time, I spent nearly all of it on my knees.
She pulled one leg up so that her foot rested on the bench a few inches away from where her butt sat perched on it. I could see a glisten where the lower hem of her shorts flared out, exposing her nethers to air flow. She flung her other leg over the arm of the bench, and now both of her shorts' leg holes were open, exposing at least a fraction of her delectable crotch from a near angle. She was not wearing panties, of course.
She looked me directly in the eyes, and I shivered. She did that so rarely. Her black almond eyes, set in a perfectly symmetrical face, stared into my watery blue eyes, eyes that I thought of as small and piggish in a broad, soft, pasty face, mottled at the moment with the pounding blood of mingled effort and fear.
"Lick," she said, letting the word fall from slightly parted pink lips that I would have given anything to kiss, but I had only ever known to sneer.
"Now?" I asked, horrified. "Here? Oh please, Mistress, not in public!"
Her black brows snapped down over her eyes, and her pink mouth turned hard.
"I gave you an order, pet," she said through clenched teeth. I quailed, sure that her next course of action, if I hesitated a moment longer, would be worse than the worst that could happen if I obeyed, and I bent down and buried my face into where her shorts flared open at her right thigh. I had to worry my mouth past the fabric somewhat, and she did not adjust her posture to help me in the slightest, only continuing to stare disapprovingly until she felt my tongue make contact with her slit.
"Good pet," she said, and stroked my hair with one hand. I almost froze in shock, but continued licking out of fear of what would happen if I stopped.
She had never vocalized approval of anything I had done to her in the past. The most I had ever gotten was a text telling me that my obedience had been satisfactory this time.
