Two weeks had passed since Tessa began her new life as a pleasure slave. She had settled into a routine, which left plenty of time for brooding. Escape might have been possible for someone of her skills despite the locks and guards. But the punishment if she was ever caught was too grim to seriously consider it.
To her surprise, the master had not called for her again after the time in the baths. He often returned late in the evenings and chose to spend what leisure time he had with Cassandra. Tessa only saw the haughty blonde woman in the servants' quarters when she came to soak her voluptuous body in one of the small wooden tubs. She pointedly ignored Tessa every time. There was another pleasure slave, named Danelle. Her time was almost up and the master seemed to have lost interest in her. Danelle was cheerful enough but unwilling to talk about herself or much at all really.
What Tessa wanted more than anything was information. She needed a purpose other than waiting to be served up like some new and exciting dish. There had to be a way she could find out more about the events which had caught her in this net. The problem was that she didn't know where to begin. But she could smell a set-up when it was shoved under her nose.
An older servant named Karlo had befriended Tessa despite the rules demanding that she keep to herself. He told her stories of the past and of the family he had served for a long time. Karlo had been with Rudi's parents at first. But he had followed when the son moved to the capital more than twenty years ago to achieve greatness. Karlo was easy going and kind to Tessa, but she was careful not to confide in him or ask any questions which could raise suspicion. Someone who had been loyal for so long could hardly be expected to keep her secrets. She just had to bide her time and keep her eyes open. The first step would have to be to earn the trust of her master. There was unfortunately little doubt about what that would require.
Rudi Barany increased his pace as he walked the last bit of the cobble stone road towards his villa. He hurried past high garden walls and ornate iron gates, not unlike his own. The social obligations coming with his station could sometimes be exhausting. And that was of course in addition to his ever present duties at the court.
His excitement had been building during the day until it was almost a distraction. It really wasn't proper that he should let his personal affairs interfere with duty, but his weakness had always been women. He knew it and accepted it. The work he did was important enough to excuse his own pleasures. He knew exactly where to draw the line, how much indulgence was allowed a man of his station. It was a considerable amount.
Today he would finally turn his attention to his new little thief. He had been neglecting her for too long. Every woman was different in her needs and desires, but he always prefered pleasure slaves with some fire to them. That meant he had to wait for those rare prizes to appear, or sometimes even nudge events a little bit himself. He had a strong feeling that Tessa was tougher than she looked, no surprise considering her past. He could tell she was only pretending to be meek. But to be fair, and he was mostly fair, that was just a sign of good wits on her part.
In a way, Tessa was the opposite of Cassandra, Rudi mused. The former noblewoman had been commanding at first and tried with both threats and promises. But only for a short time. He had played a game with her for a while where he would rub and lick her virgin asshole, the last bastion of her dignity, but then retreat again when she protested. But lately she had started craving even the delicious humiliation of his manhood pushing deep into her tight forbidden entrance. He almost changed his mind to go with Cassandra for yet another night, but he knew that it was weakness talking.
It was already dark when Rudi returned to his chambers from the bath. He tried to finish a piece of correspondence but gave up quickly. Then he rang for a servant to bring Tessa. He removed his robe and waited on the bed.
The knock came soon and Tessa entered. She wore her usual slave garments which allowed Rudi to admire her firm body with its tantalizing little shapes and curves. She tried to appear relaxed but he could tell that she was nervous. "You are perfect my lovely thief. Finally we can have some time together. Please make yourself comfortable." She meekly left her clothes in a pile on the floor and sat down beside him on the bed.
Rudi took Tessa in his arms and kissed her neck. Her skin was silky soft and her scent was so sweet it almost made him light headed. He lay down on his side and motioned her to do the same, facing him. They met in a kiss which slowly became more passionate. She hesitantly put her arm around him. In response, he took a firm hold on her ass and pulled her closer. It felt so good in his hand that he was unwilling to let go. Rudi stretched his finger a bit further in and rubbed her tense little anus. Tessa immediately froze but didn't try to shift away. After a moment, Rudi reluctantly moved on. That was for an other time. His cock rubbed against the outside of her pussy, not trying to find the entrance yet. Their hips rocked gently against each other, teasing what was to come.
