As soundlessly as he could, Ian let himself into Clara's spacious cage as she slept peacefully beneath the blankets. He sat in his recliner and admired his conquest. He had never tried this before, pulling a slave in from another world. He had spent months preparing for her, setting everything into motion so he could be assured of a smooth transfer once he nabbed her. And now, she was his.
Of course, he could never allow anyone to know that she came from another world. Only a few people in his innermost circle knew the success of his mining operation depended on an off-world workforce who was all too happy to work for basic medical care. Do patents extend to other worlds? Ian thought not, so what he was doing was perfectly legit.
He did not want his government discovering his technology yet, though the potential resource of breedable females from other worlds might eventually warrant him revealing his hand to save his population. For now, he was content to have a fertile female of his own. His business partners would likely want one as well, and that would happen when the time was right.
WERT's information about Clara's progress displayed in his neural interface and the robot's report scrolled across his field of vision as if he was looking at a computer monitor. His little pet had cursed right after he left for the night, but he was pleased to learn that her behavior was otherwise decent. Ian had set her bedtime at 10:30 PM and she tried to convince WERT to not turn the TV off after she got engaged with a baking show on the Food Nation network, arguing that "Mr. Kline didn't need to know about it." But the report also indicated that she didn't put up any further argument when WERT turned the lights and TV off at 10:30 sharp.
He sat down on Clara's bed and watched his new pet sleeping peacefully. He considered the curvy, toned figure, ample breasts, and slender limbs that tapered off to nimble hands and small feet hidden beneath the blankets, shrouding her. Her ivory skin and full lips were delicate, unique and almost angelic.
"Good morning, my beautiful pet," Ian said to Clara as he gently stroked her red hair. She hadn't noticed him enter the cage or sit down on her bed, but her eyes opened when she felt his hand. She smiled at Ian with sparkling eyes for just a second before her face turned sour.
"Oh wait!" she said as her circumstances returned to her memory. "You kidnapped me!" She kneed him in the side.
"Oh, I bet you'd have preferred to smack my face, or punch me, instead of impotently kneeing me. But, pet, you were a bad girl yesterday and you lost the use of your hands."
Clara scowled at him and he smiled back.
"Jerk," she said.
WERT flashed red and Ian raised his hand. "Jerk is permitted," he said to the robot as he chuckled and rubbed his side. He returned his attention to Clara.
"I'm pleased with you for downgrading me from an asshole to jerk. Well done, pet." He pointed skyward and Clara watched the collar descend a few more inches. She rolled over in bed facing away from him.
"I was having a perfectly nice dream about you teasing me with promises of chastity and helping me with math. That's the Ian Kline I was falling for."
"Ahhh, but little pet, this is the Ian Kline you got. Oh, and I'll still be helping you with math. Clara-Jane had a completed degree in medical technology that I'll need to catch you up on. I'll also support a second degree in nursing if that's still your preference, but I can't have you running around being unfamiliar with your first degree."
"What is medical technology?"
"You'll be trained on this world's latest medical advances and you'll work with patients and doctors by reviewing charts and recommending treatments."
"That actually sounds really cool," she said. "What is my day going to look like?"
"First thing is first, we're going to go upstairs and get you a shower and an enema."
Clara didn't like things being shoved up her backside and an enema felt deeply personal. She didn't want to do it at all, and especially not with him watching. "What else are we doing today?"
"We'll have breakfast upstairs in my residence, and if you're good, I might let you sit on the patio for a bit. The weather is really nice. If you're really well behaved, I'll take you for a walk around the property."
"You're not afraid I'll try to run?" Clara asked.
"You'll be wearing a harness, pet. I won't be taking any chances with you until you're trained and collared. Even then, you'll be restricted for your own safety. I should advise you that my security team knows you're here reluctantly and that you're a flight risk."
"Oh good," Clara said sarcastically. "I wouldn't want to feel that I stole my freedom back from you by having slipped past untrained guards when I break free and run home."
Ian kissed her forehead. "You're not going home, pet."
"I am going home," she reaffirmed.
Ian just smiled and pulled the blanket down. He rolled her over onto her belly and slid her nighty up to her waist revealing her bruised backside. "Am I in trouble again?"
"I'm not going to spank you, if that's what you were worried about. But there is the matter of a language infraction. WERT reported that you had a choice comment to make last night after I left. We'll take care of that soon." Ian gently ran his hands across the globes of Clara's ass, assessing the bruising. "No more spankings until you're all healed," he declared. He released the chain that connected her wrists, and she rolled over, lifting her hips again when he told her to. Ian laid a network of straps beneath her, then clicked them closed around her waist as she settled her weight back onto the bed. Clara could feel the magnets on the two ends of the straps pulling together and she understood the technology that was likely at play. It was a perfect fit for her, just as the chastity cup had been, and it dawned on her in that moment that if his story of an alternate universe was true, then these items were likely made for Clara-Jane and explained why they fit so well. Two additional straps closed around her thighs and four more crossed her belly and ass connecting the thigh bands to the belt. She looked down to inspect herself when he was done connecting everything.
