The Captain left Katy alone in his cabin the next day while he saw to all of his duties. There was a tray with fruit, bread, and dried meats on the table. She realized soon after she woke that it had been a long while since she had eaten, and she scarfed down as much food as she could fit into her stomach. She bathed in the now cold tub and washed herself as he had ordered before dressing. The Captain had given her a dress to wear. Apparently he had bought some things for her to wear before the ship had sat sail, which she found curiously strange. The dress was nothing like the modest frocks she had been accustomed to. It was short, above her knees, had a corset built in and showed off very cleavage. He had left it out for her with a note telling her to wear it. After trying it on, she was mortified, so she put her plain black frock over it. She assured herself it was okay; because technically she wasn't disobeying him... he didn't say she had to wear ONLY the dress. The undergarments he had provided were scant and lacy, she didn't even bother putting them on.
She hoped that he would be gone a very long time, but they were sailing easy waters and he returned in late afternoon. She sat on the sofa curled up with her arms around her knees, tears stained her face. She still looked down in shame every time she saw him, flooded with memories of the night before and her inexcusable lack of control.
"I expect you to come to the door and greet me when I enter, Katy. I know that you have not learned all of the rules yet, so I will not punish you; before long you will not get away with things so easily. So you understand?"
She rose and grudgingly went to where he stood, "Yes, sir. I apologize."
"Why are you not wearing your dress?" he growled at her, angry. She was startled by his angry outburst.
"It is under my frock, sir... I... you were away and I thought it would be... I didn't think you would..." she was frantic with fear. He was turning red with anger and he hit her hard across the face, knocking her to the ground.
"Stand up, Katy." She did. He pulled out a knife and she let out a small scream before silencing herself. Fear rippled through her.
He came closer with the knife, and held it against her neck, laughing quietly at her shaking figure. He brought the blade down to her frock and cut a rip at the neckline, making her jump. He returned the knife to his belt and used his hands to rip the frock all the way down and rip it off of her. He noticed her long white undergarment from the bottom of her dress, and she began to regret not putting on what he had bought her. She had underestimated how angry he would get.
His voice was so calm when he spoke that she was sure a rage would soon follow it. "Katy, take off your undergarments. Now." She did not hesitate to obey. "Now put on what I laid out for you." It took her a few minutes to figure out the garter belt, stockings, and scant panties that showed off so much she wondered why she even bothered at all. Lucky for her, seeing her frightfully try to figure out her new undergarments and fumble with them had been so humorous to the captain that he started to calm down. He was still angry at her.
"Katy, come here," he said sternly as he said on the sofa. She quickly acquiesced.
"I gave you orders to dress in what I had laid out for you, did I not?"
"Yes, sir."
"And why did you disobey me, Katy?"
"I... I'm very sorry, sir..." She did not even know what to say. She could tell he expected more of an answer, so she quickly searched for the words to continue. "Your note said to wear the dress, so I put it on. I am not used to wearing such things, and it made me feel better to put my frock over it. I thought... since I was wearing the dress... that I was still following your instructions. Your note did not say I had to wear the... undergarments."
He looked more angry than appeased by her answer. "You are my property while you are on my ship, do you understand that? I choose what you wear, what you eat, when you sleep... everything. If you do not want to pay for your trip, I can throw you overboard. You knew what my letter meant, and you chose to disobey."
"No, sir... no that's not it! I really..."
"Do not talk back to me! You stupid, stupid girl."
"Yes, sir." She whispered, scared.
"Call me Master."
"Yes, Master."
"Katy, I have to punish you. If I don't, you will never learn."
She looked at him with wide eyes. "No... please..." the look on his face silenced her pleading, and she looked to the ground, defeated, and said, "yes, Master."
"That's better. I know you can learn. You are a smart girl. You are my dirty little slut. Remember how I made you moan last night, Katy?"
'Oh, not this' she thought, but said, "Yes, Master."
He opened his pants and pulled out his already hard member. "Now, come lay over my knees to take your punishment."
She obeyed, and lay over his knees with her back facing up. He laughed, and adjusted her so that her ass was further up and his penis was on her stomach. She could feel his dick rubbing slimy pre cum on her dress, and she started to feel sick. He pulled up her dress. The thong and garter belt left her cheeks nicely displayed. Naively, she still had no idea what he was going to do, just knew that it would be unpleasant.
