Lily
She followed Johnny Boy closely into the kitchen, taking note of the open back door. Her excitement built as she realized there was a chance of escape. Lily stood beside Johnny Boy, kneeling gracefully beside him as he sat. Her stomach grumbled with hunger as the smell of freshly cooked bacon and eggs filled her senses. She did her best to keep her eyes upon the wine rack in the distance holding her position. Pinot Noir and merlots filled the small rack. She wondered what it tasted like. Was it sweet like a grape? How far would she have to run after she was over the fence? Her thoughts lasted only a moment before Luke shattered her focus with his hand upon her shoulder.
"Good morning, Lily." He greeted her cheerfully as his hand tightened upon her. "Are you looking forward to our day together?" He asked her with a sadistic smile spread across his face. Her tremble beneath his fingertips excited him as she struggled to keep her eyes focused upon the wall. "Look at me and answer nicely, Lily." He ordered her, whispering into her ear with a kiss to her cheek before he rose up before her.
"Good morning, Sir." She said softly, forcing her eyes up to meet his gaze upon her. Don't look away. She ordered herself. Just listen and obey. She replayed the command over and over trying to distract herself from the fear she felt knelt before him now. He smiled down upon her with a menacing flare she found unsettling as she shifted her weight back and forth upon her legs beneath her. His hand moved to her face and she froze beneath his touch as he stroked her cheek gently with the back of his hand. He seemed to be waiting for something, his impatience showing across his dark features as the seconds passed, and the realization hit her just as his hand drew back. "Yes, Sir. I am looking forward to today." She lied, holding back the tears as she heard the brothers sigh of relief, before Luke returned his hand to her cheek gently caressing her once again.
"Good girl." Luke praised her continuing his caresses upon her. "As am I, slave." She had lied to him, but at least she had answered. He could accept that for now, and he would bring up her lying later when they were in private. He couldn't wait to get her alone, and whimpering beneath his touch. He had been planning their day together all night.
It had worked. She had listened, and he was nicer already. This could work. She thought hopefully. She just had to get into the yard. Luke settled back into his chair focusing on his breakfast once again while she knelt by his side. Her stomach grumbled once again brining a chuckle from the men above her.
Johnny Boy
"Hey Luke. Why don't you come into the office with me for a minute and let Damien feed Lily while we talk?" Johnny Boy offered as he stood from the table patting Lily on the head as he passed her.
"What do we need to talk about, Brother?" Luke asked, as he remained firmly in his place beside Lily. His hand came down upon her head softly brushing her hair with his fingertips as he smiled up at Johnny Boy. Her flinch to his touch had not escaped his notice as he continued stroking her gently.
Her gaze moved between the brothers waiting for his response as the tension slowly grew around them.
"Private matters not meant for a slave's ear, Luke." Johnny boy was not the type to back down easily, and responded coolly to Luke's challenge adding an edge to his name that no one missed. He took a step towards the door way pausing as he waited for Luke to rise. As he stood, he caught the not so subtle glances of his little one beneath the tables edge. She was adorable in her attempts, but he was in no mood to play now.
"Little one, your eyes are supposed to remain forward when you are kneeling." He reminded her gently. He refocused his attention back to Luke, as she shot her gaze back to the wine pondering its taste once again after she was free.
"Alright, but make it quick. Lily and I have a lesson to repeat in eye contact it seems." His grip tightened within her curls releasing quickly as he stood. Her tear fell silently as he left her kneeling alone with Damien who stood greeting her happily.
Damien
"Good morning, pet. You look beautiful this morning." Damien greeted her cheerfully wiping her tear away with his thumb as he caressed her cheek softly in his palm. "Are you hungry?" He asked, picking up her bowls from the table. Lily hadn't seen them coming in, and her stomach ached for the food inside them. Her stomach growled, answering for her before she had a chance to speak. The soft sound made Damien smile as he stood above her with her bowls awaiting her reply.
"Yes, Sir." She responded perking up slightly at the sight of food before her, even if it was still in a dog bowl. The crisp bacon smelled delicious, and had been tenderly cut up for her. She assumed it was to make it easier to eat. Beside the bacon laid the fluffiest peppered eggs she had ever seen. Just the way she loved them. How long had it been since she had eggs and bacon? She wondered, as he knelt beside her placing the bowls in front of her upon the floor. She couldn't have been any older than 10. She thought to herself, recalling the memory of her Mother cooking breakfast. It was amazing, to say the least. The aromas drifting from the bowls brought her back to the moment as she looked to Damien, and back to the food waiting.
"Good girl." Damien praised her, petting her hair softly as he took Luke's seat beside her. "You may eat now, pet." He told her, admiring the way she looked up to him for permission. He granted it happily for his hungry pet. "Remember, no hands." He reminded Lily, to her dismay.
Her deep groan made him chuckle beside her. She would learn, all in time. He thought, watching her bend over quickly to eat. He smiled watching the hem of her dress just barely cover her bottom as she leaned further, taking the food delicately into her mouth. He loved the view of her perfect form as she wiggled unconsciously for him lowering her upper half only to extend her lower half to his gaze, retrieving the final bites from her bowl. His cock hardened in response as she swallowed the last piece of bacon, rising up to him with a look of satisfaction as she licked her lips clean. Soon. He thought, pushing his urges aside for the moment.
Luke and Johnny Boy
Luke followed Johnny Boy to the office, his frustration evident in his heavy steps down the hallway. Johnny Boy stopped short, fishing his keys from his pocket in search of the office set. Too many keys. He thought as he searched all too aware of Luke's growing irritation behind him. They entered each taking their seat in the full recliners that took up the back wall of the large office.
"Alright, Brother. What was so important you felt it necessary to interrupt my time with Lily?" Luke said angrily to Johnny Boy who sat calmly across from him.
"You need to be more patient with her. You're terrifying her, and it's not helping us build any trust with her." Johnny Boy started carefully. Luke's face flashed with rage as he got to his feet ready to defend himself but was cut short by Johnny Boy's raised hand. "Let me finish, Luke. You're accustomed to working with experienced slaves and masochists. So, naturally your approach so far would have been very efficient, even pleasing, if you were dealing with one of your usual trainees. She is not our usual trainee, not by a long shot, Luke. Lily is a virgin in every aspect, and we need to start training her in ways that show we understand that." He said watching Luke pace the room as he spoke. Johnny Boy was thankful that Luke had at least calmed down enough to consider his words before speaking.
"So, am I supposed to let her infractions go uncorrected?" Luke questioned him, grabbing a bottle of water from the mini fridge below the bar that adorned the right wall. He took a long drink before continuing. "That is the only time I have laid a hand on her thus far, and if that is an issue then I don't know what you're expecting, Johnny."
I'm not saying don't correct her if an infraction warrants it, but Luke. She feels like we've done nothing, but beat her since she has been here. Looking at it from her perspective, she is not entirely off for feeling that way." Johnny Boy paused, treating his next words with care as Luke took his seat once again beside him weighing his brother's words as he spoke. "We need to explain more to her, and make sure she understands her place. It is clearly not enough to just put her into her roles. She needs to understand them. Explain why she kneels for us. Why she asks permission. Why she has the expectations she has upon her. Explain what being a slave means for her, and to us. We are failing her in this regard. How can we expect her to act as our slave if she doesn't even know what being a slave means?" Johnny Boy said, his disappointment clear in his tone. They all needed to change. The thought settled uncomfortably in his stomach. "That's all I am saying, Brother. We just need to teach her, and she will soak it up like a sponge. She is a very curious creature, Luke."
"You're right, Johnny Boy." Luke responded quietly. "We may have been too rough with her, and I haven't explained shit to her. That's for sure. She probably thinks were all just a bunch of abusive assholes. How do we fix that?" He asked, leaning back in the seat with a look Johnny Boy couldn't quite place.
"As I said before, we need to start explaining things to her and allowing her to ask questions." He stood pacing the room as he explained the plan to Luke. "Be gentler with her, and allow her to earn privileges each day with us. That will be a great motivator for her." Johnny boy said grinning as their plan came together.
"I'll do my best, J.B. You know kissing ass isn't my thing." Luke said getting up from his chair. "I'll work on it for her though. I do want her to stay, and want to." He finished, walking towards the door.
"Last thing, Luke." Johnny Boy said causing Luke to pause before he reached the door.
