A METAMORPHOSIS OF PRIDE or THE RISE AND FALL OF CATHERINE
Chapter I
The Princess and the Servant
I've never harboured any romantic desires for anybody of the female gender; I am a straight woman, but I have always enjoyed dominating weaker women in a sexual way.
Any kind of physical torture is out of the question. Psychological is the only way to go for me and I only blackmail, nothing more. Nothing gives me more satisfaction than watching another straight woman sacrifice her sexuality to me for the sake of her own reputation. That is the most satisfactory thing I can get from another woman because it is an irreversible sacrifice on her behalf.
Even if my victim remains straight after I have forced her to worship me, her heart will always jump with fear every time she sees me, or every time she hears the name Catherine, which is my name. I will remain forever her superior. I will have scarred her forever, because the only person who scars a woman deeper than the man who has taken her virginity is the woman who has made her forget that man's relevance.
I didn't know this inclination in myself until I turned eighteen. That was when I blackmailed another woman for the first time. A few days after my birthday my parents hired a third chambermaid for the house, one who was assigned to tend to only my needs and thus take some burden off the other maids' shoulders.
Our house was very big and I'm an only child. I must admit that being the daughter of the wealthiest man in our town I was quite spoilt and very demanding, so I very often tormented the poor woman.
For some reason, I didn't like her from the start. A young Croatian immigrant, her English also wasn't very good, so I would often interrupt her ruthlessly when she spoke to me and told her in a demanding tone to articulate and speak more clearly. If I was in a bad mood I would make her tidy my room twice, even when she had done it well the first time. I was immature and was starting to develop a taste for dominating others, and I thought that being mean was the same thing as being strong.
One day the maid brought my clothing freshly folded from the launderette. Current trouble with my first boyfriend back then played a vital role in me being in a terrible mood that day, so I snapped at her. I told her poisonously that if there should be but one of my mother's garments mixed in with mine, I would take my panties off and use her mouth as a tumble-turner to wash them. She understood perfectly and made a slightly disgusted face from the image I described, but she didn't argue with me.
