I'm a slave?
The word nervous could never describe how I feel right now. I still don't believe that this is happening, that I'm really doing this. Never before have I considered that I'm seriously messed up in the head like I am right now. That I'm not the normal person I always thought I was, the woman with the 10 year career in the oil and gas industry...but a pervert. A sexual deviant. The sort of person that parents tell their children not to date.
The truth is, I don't want this. Not any more. I want to stop it before it happens to me. Before they get a chance to not just sexually use and abuse me, but to humiliate me in ways I can't grasp.
I'm standing in a long line towards the front as I am behind a few women and a couple of guys. We are all waiting in this backstage area to talk to the person behind the desk. To talk to the person behind the desk, who is directing everyone that is part of this convention on where they are to go and what to do.
Looking around, I know I would normally be impressed by how they have set up. I mean, this was once empty warehouse, but now they converted it into a convention center that has to have well over a thousand people in it. This once abandoned warehouse is in the middle of an empty part of town, where it is at the same time a secret and public event. You might even think that this is a normal event too, like a comic-con or something as there are staff, security, waiters and more working. But it only takes a single glance around the huge main floor on the convention to see this is in no way normal.
A few months ago I noticed that my life was, well, boring. Boring is a nice word to describe it. I just happened to discover that I had no life. That I just lived for my career. I had no boyfriend, no kids, no real hobbies, no nothing. Just wake up, go to work, work late, come home to a single serve dinner and close to a bottle of wine. I discovered not only was I bored, but that I was missing out on life.
I knew I needed a change. More than that, I wanted fun. It had been so long since I had fun that I was desperate for it. And, to be honest and upfront, I wanted to get laid. Having sex was never an issue for me as it is always easy to get a partner for that, but even that got boring. Most guys just did the same act, and it lasted about 20 minutes at most. I wanted new. I wanted exciting. I wanted to experience feelings that I hadn't felt before. I wanted to experiment.
I started to seek out new kinks and learn about ones I had been curious about. So I would spend most of my free time on Reddit, going to various sub-reddits to learn what I could about BDSM, non-con, Domination, hucows and so much more. Sure I learned about a few kinks that were gross or ugly, but it felt like a new world was opened up. From this, I found a whole host of new friends. Granted, many were loser guys that were virgins desperate to try and have sex. They were easily blocked through.
That's when I learned about the
MasterEffect
event, which is basically a kink convention. And MasterEffect hosted what is known as the SlaveLife program. In a nutshell, it is similar to FetLife, but with a much more defined purpose. It goes, well, beyond FetLife. FetLife to me is more of a social network meant to encourage conversation with people in the kink community. The SlaveLife program is, well, designed to pair you up WITH the community.
"Next," the woman behind the desk calls out in a "I work at the DMV" sort of voice. The line moves forward as the man that was just served walks off in a collar and with a rather large man leading him away. Granted, the man in the collar has a look of ecstasy on his face, even if he wears the clothes of a banker.
I signed up for this. I can't believe it, but I signed up. Signed up to be apart of SlaveLife. That's what having a lot of wine gets you. And worse of all, when I signed up, I was honest. I was honest about all the things I wanted to experience. Lord help me I was honest and upfront about it all. And now I've never been so terrified about what's going to happen. Never have I tried to think up a way out of this.
You might be thinking, "so what?" That you just forget that you signed up, or you just don't show up. MasterEffect thought of that too. That's why to sign up, you have to put down a deposit. A HUGE deposit. Like, some people would consider it a car down payment. Hell, some might call it payment for a full car. Anyway, you put down the deposit and after 6 months of being active, they refund it back to you. That's why the program is such a success because only the serious are involved. With that said, if you don't go to events, if you don't contribute to the community, they take that money and you never get it back. Did I mention the deposit is HUGE?
"Next!" the woman behind the desk calls out again and the line moves forward, leaving just the person in front of me. Seems most of the others were part of a group that went up together.
My heart pounds harder and faster now, as my fate is about to happen shortly. My legs feel like jelly and there's cold sweat forming on my forehead. How the hell do I get out of this? They made it clear that by showing up, I was agreeing to their terms of service, meaning they get to do as they want. I came her thinking I could just calmly explain it to someone that I am uncomfortable with it and they would let me out of it with my deposit. But after looking at the lady, I don't know if she would care if someone was on fire in front of her.
How do I get out of this? As I think about what is about to happen to me, I try to think up a smart way that will solve all my problems. Only...a part of me doesn't want to get out of it. A part of me really wants to go through with it. And that's the part that scares the ever loving hell out of me.
"Next," the woman at the desk calls, leaving me as the next person as the woman in front of me walks up. Nervous, I glance behind me to see the line is extraordinary long, with most looking as nervous as I do. The rest appear to be smiling and extremely happy, like kids at Christmas.
"Next," the woman at the desk calls out, and I turn to see that the woman whom was in front of me has removed her long jacket to reveal a skin-tight latex outfit. She takes an old school hand fan with a number on it, as if she's about to go to an auction. I see her walk off with her hips swaying, making it painfully obvious that she is a mistress and in charge.
"Next," the woman calls out again, annoyed, making it very clear that it is my turn. I fear I'm going to fall over as my legs feel so weak as I walk towards her. She doesn't look at me or even acknowledge me as I start to walk over, either. She just keeps tapping at the tablet in front of her. I begin to fiddle with my hands as I move to the desk, so nervous that I wonder if I can have a heart attack from this. It sure feels like I could at the moment, even if I am just 30.
"Name?" The woman at the desk asks. "M-MÂ-Mia. Mia G-Garcia," I stammer out, my voice sounding weak, soft and for some reason stupid. For some reason I can't look at the lady directly. It's as if I'm embarrassed or something. So I just settle for stealing glances at her while looking at the ground.
I open my mouth to talk, but no sounds come out. As I was driving here, I had thought up a speech to explain myself. To say how I am not comfortable with this, and in a way it is emotional blackmail what they are doing to me. That I should have the right to not just leave, but to take my deposit with me. Only, I can't say the words. It's the woman. There's something about her. I could recite the worlds best speech and I have a feeling she would just yawn. The only thing that will impress her is when there is no more line.
"Garcia, Garcia," the woman repeats as she scrolls down on the tablet that she has. Then she finds my name in the list, and taps at the tablet. I happen to steal a glance at her right as I see her eyes widen in surprise as she reads my profile. This feels me with utter dread as this woman looks as if she's seen everything under the sun, and yet my profile surprises her. Fear like a icy tidal wave washes over me to this, making me wonder where the homeless will find my body at as I feel like I won't survive this.
"Ok. This...is going to be interesting," the woman says amused as she reads the tablet. I again look at the ground as I don't think I can look at her in the eyes after what she knows. That she knows what a weirdo sex-fiend I am because I was too honest when I signed up. That she knows of all the things I admitted I wanted to try.
"Alright. Take off all your clothes and put them in this bag," the woman says without any real emotion as she holds a large clear bag like a jumbo Ziplock bag.
"W-W-W-What?" I stammer out, thinking that I must have misheard her. I mean, I know this is a kink event, but there's no way she would want anyone naked here. We are in the backstage area anyway. I haven't seen a single naked person yet. Hell, I haven't even seen someone wearing something that couldn't be called professional clothes.
"You are Slave 031. By attending this event today, you released any and all rights. Since slaves like you are pathetic, stupid and have super huge titties, you are deemed too dumb to wear people clothes," the woman informs me sternly.
I'm stunned by this, especially as she says it so loud that clearly most in line hear it. And the way she accented the word 'titties' makes me cross my arms in front of my chest in an effort to hide them. It's an odd time to think this, but I don't think I've ever heard another female use that word in real life. In TV shows or movies, yeah. But most consider that too crude of a word to describe a female's anatomy that they wouldn't use it. Yet...she did. And she used it to describe my breasts.
"Strip bitch, unless you would like security to do it for you?" she asks in a no-nonsense manner. I still don't move to this. Instead I open my mouth to say something. Only, the woman gets an evil sort of smile on her face. For the first time I think she is enjoying her job here.
