I've always wanted to be a sex slave. Even writing those words makes me feel warm and comfortable. Safe. Secure. Like snuggling under a warm duvet. It's all I've ever wanted.
Of course, I never told anyone when I was a child. I don't think I even knew it in definite terms. I put forward a front of normalcy. Locked away my desires behind a facade. I was a pretty girl, I know. I'm told things come easily to pretty girls. It never felt that way to me, but I guess things dropped into my lap. As an only child, my parents spoiled me a bit. I had the toys I wanted, the dresses, the after-school clubs. The birthday parties. I used to have fabulous birthday parties. If a nine-year-old's birthday can be a must-attend social occasion, mine were. Behind it all, though, I didn't want to be a princess or a queen. I wanted to be the serving girl, the maid. Ignored. Quiet. Demure.
In high school, I hid in plain view. I was one of the popular ones. One of the beautiful people. Looking back now, I was pretty horrible to quite a lot of people. I guess I was trying to compensate for my secret. I don't remember thinking that at the time. It wasn't deliberate or anything. Like most teenagers I was a mass of conflicting hormones and emotions. I dated, of course. Jocks, mostly. Decorative boys, not too smart. Fashion accessories for the fashion-conscious. I realize now that they were a long way from what I wanted. It's the substance, the authority, behind that matters. And I need someone with that authority and strength to give me what I want. I know that now. I'm not sure I knew it then.
I've never been stupid. I'm not a brainbox, but I did well enough to get places at good, if not great, universities. So I progressed from high school to college without too much trouble, and for a year or so, I continued with my normal life. Still my secret was kept buried. I didn't want to be in charge. Didn't want to be the leader of my little social clique. Sure, I used my looks, my platinum blonde hair (thanks, Mum's Nordic Ancestors). But it was empty. Soulless. Just a pretty girl going through the motions. Looking, but not really knowing what I was looking for. I had a boyfriend, of course. Reserve Quarterback. Quite a catch. I remember that I thought I'd done quite well there. That was before I met...him.
I didn't pay much attention to him the first time I saw him. Nor the second or third, I think. Appearance wise, he didn't even blip on a radar calibrated for square-jawed all-American boys. He was a post-grad, a bit older. In the biology or psychology department, or something like that. Many of my friends thought he was a bit creepy. I didn't think of him at all.
My parents had this bizarre idea about making me make some of my own way. They could have paid for just about everything I wanted, but they obviously decided they had spoiled me enough. I wasn't going to starve, or sleep in the streets, but luxury spending I would have to earn. So I had a weekend job, and I was always on the lookout for little bits of work that school throws up. I hated it. I told everyone that it was beneath me, but that wasn't it. I hated being in charge of myself. I know that now. It went against my nature, my desires. It wasn't what I'd always wanted.
Fifty dollars was a lot of money for an hour's work. And it wasn't even really work. Just fill out a survey, answer a few questions. He was the one giving the survey. Asking the questions. It was the first time I'd spoken to him. I completed the forms, and then he started asking the questions. And the hour extended into two, and then into three. It just felt so easy talking to him. It wasn't about anything, really, at all. Certainly not about my secret wants and needs. Just about life, about views of the world.
That night, I remember clearly, lying on my bed masturbating. And my fantasies, up to then so unfocused, found a focus. I imagined myself kneeling at his feet. Naked. Waiting for him to tell me what to do. I fantasized about being turned over his knee and spanked. Not in an intense, personal way, but in a dispassionate, clinical way, as if it was just procedure. Just part of my life. Now, of course, it is. It's part of my daily routine. I get spanked first thing in the morning and last thing at night. It helps me remember my place, my role. It's the sort of regular discipline that I've always wanted. My ass is always sore, and that serves as just another reminder.
I remember orgasming like I had never done before, that night. The next morning, he called me. I was never so pleased to get a call. He said there were a few follow-up questions he wanted to ask me. I doubted they had anything to do with the survey, but the memory of his intensity, and the intensity of my fantasies about him, made me agree.
That afternoon, I split up with my boyfriend. I remember how crushed he looked. How weak. He said I was a "stone cold bitch". Perhaps. But when you finally see what you've always wanted, you go for it.
