Lucia's brisk walk brooked no nonsense. The attractive Latina vampire had long hair with curly waves, and her eyes were as seductive and delicious-looking as dark chocolate. She was completely naked, showing off her body for all the vampires to see - not that they could touch her without permission. Human females might have been fair game among vampire-kind, but vampire mistresses enjoyed all the same rights as the males.
"Welcome, Ruthven. It is a pleasure to see you my love." Ruthven gritted his teeth but forced himself to be pleasant. He gave her a smile as she reached up to give him a languorous kiss.
"No, Lucia, the pleasure is mine," he replied obediently, staying polite.
"When I saw you come in I went to the trouble of preparing a room for you just the way you like it. I would love to join you later, if you'll permit?" The hope in her voice was impossible to dash, much as Ruthven preferred to have some extended alone time with his new slave girl.
"I would be most delighted if you did, Lucia. Lead on." He gently tugged on the leash and Sophia followed, the rope still tied around her neck and her wrists still bound tightly behind her back.
This time she did not stumble despite the flashing strobe lights in the rave club and the shadows which seemed to soak up every other step. The girl captive's gaze couldn't help staring in horrified fascination as they walked through. Many vampires languished on decadently luxuriant furniture with their slaves, but others seemed to prefer playing with their slaves in more harsh, dungeon-like conditions.
A beautiful blonde girl not unlike Sophia was laid out with her arms and legs stretched by heavily knotted cords, and with a dark leather collar around her neck. The girl's name 'Slave Tracie' - was written in black permanent marker above her breasts, and below those words someone had written 'Fuck me.' A line of vampires waited behind her, and one assailant was pushing his cock between her labia as Sophia walked by.
"No! Please!" Tracie cried out as the shaft plunged home.
"That slave must have done something truly disobedient for her Master to willingly share her like that," Lucia murmured as the helpless girl disappeared from view.
Sophia tried to look upward to avoid seeing more of such horrors. A few raised platforms throughout the club had vampires dancing, sometimes with each other, and sometimes with their frightened human slaves - both male and female. Long chains dove from the rave club's mirrored ceiling. Along some of them a naked vampire gyrated back and forth, swinging with sadistic glee while watching the depravity below. Other chains had slave girls or man-slaves dangling from them, often by their ankles.
"Will you miss this place, Sophia?"
The young blonde shuddered as Ruthven's hand cupped her sexy ass and continued to prod her forward. "N-no Master."
Ruthven knew of many vampires who would punish their slave pets for daring to show any disapproval of vampire kind, but for some reason he admired Sophia's honesty.
A small grin twitched along his lips as they left the pounding, music-filled rave club and entered a soundproofed hallway. Gothic skull-shaped lamps lit the way until they reached a door near the end of the hallway. Made of what looked like rusted iron, the door creaked like nails on a chalkboard as they opened it.
"Here you are, my love. Just the way you like it," Lucia purred.
Ruthven sighed, trying to have patience. He and Lucia had a history, bittersweet though it was. She had never moved on. He had. If only he could make her understand.
"Thank you Lucia. I can take things from here," he said pointedly, and for once she took his hint and left, her silky laugh following her out as the door slammed shut with finality.
The room was 16 by 16 feet with murals, some lurid, some intoxicating, plastered across the walls. Some had images of vampire orgies. Others were more sedate, showing a ghostly moon with a stark landscape of steep cliffs.
But those weren't what entrapped Sophia's attention. The blonde gasped as she saw the giant wooden horse. Four wooden pillars nailed together to a smooth crosspiece, and on that crosspiece someone had affixed a line of blood-red vibrators. There were five artificial cocks marching in a line from smallest and thinnest to longest and thickest.
"We call this the Horse of Trials, my lady. Can you guess why?" She trembled in his grasp, her eyes widening.
He walked around the horse, his hand caressing each vibrator. "We will train your pussy well -and what better way than to stretch it with progressively larger cocks?" He stroked the smallest vibrator. It was smooth and maybe 7.5 inches, harmless looking enough. But as he moved to the subsequent cocks - to the 9 inch, 11 inch, 13 inch, and 15 inch cocks - the girl's face became a mask of horror.
"Yes, they do become rather...impressive in girth and in length, I'm afraid. And the ribbings become more and more pronounced...to add to your pleasure of course." He watched as his words sank in. The slender girl looked like a deer about to bolt. He quickly stalked back to her before she did anything stupid.
Now feeling the smallest glimmer of pity for her, he motioned for her to sit on the nearby velvet couch. She sat on one end and he sat on the other, taking her legs and swiveling them so that her feet rested on his lap. Rubbing the soles of her feet, he began to work them over with his skillful hands. His eyes swept up to ensnare hers. She looked away even as he felt her relax just barely in response to his luxurious assault.
"Look at me, Sophia."
The slave girl's chin jerked up. Her eyes shone a bit moist, but otherwise she refused to show her fear.
"You are very frightened, and I understand that. I am here to teach you how to survive in my world. Pay attention and you may." He didn't know why, especially since he had never felt this way about a slave girl before, but part of him desperately wanted her to survive. It wasn't all up to him either. Nominally she belonged to him, but the vampire hierarchy was not always so simple. There were the Ancient Lords and Elder Matrons who could do what they pleased and punish any slave, if they saw fit.
Sophia would have to play her cards carefully or she would end up like far too many slaves...
"These are the rules, slave. Do you see that chain running above the Horse?" Sophia nodded.
"Your wrists will be bound to the sliding bracelets along that chain. You will use that chain to slide and position yourself over the Horse. You will fuck each of those vibrators, from smallest to largest, instantly obeying my commands. As soon as I tell you to move to the next one, you will do it - immediately - and without question. Do you understand?"
Sophia nodded, saying nothing. Ruthven smacked her lightly on her right breast. "Speak."
"Y-yes Master. This slave understands."
Ruthven was curious about the girl's background, and he was in no hurry to begin their lesson. However, the playroom door abruptly swung open again and Mistress Lucia returned with three male slaves in tow. One was pale and the other two were dark of complexion. They were bound, spread-eagled to a long platform with wheels not unlike a giant dolly, and with their heads covered in black hoods.
"Sorry my love. I couldn't bear to wait any longer. Don't mind me. Continue your instruction and I'll stay out of your way unless you...require my assistance." She said it so sweetly that it made Ruthven sick. He couldn't deny Lucia's sexual beauty, but something about her personality rankled him.
He decided that his more probing conversation with Sophia could wait.
"Come, let's begin." He rose, helping the young blonde off the couch. The girl trembled again as he undid the bindings on her wrists, preparing to shackle them to the horizontal chain above. But as he prepared to do so, she bolted. The girl made it all the way to the door, desperately yanking at it for it to open.
Yet, like most vampire doors it was made to be extremely heavy - so heavy that no human could easily move it, let alone a slip of a girl like Sophia. She screamed as Ruthven took hold of her collar's leash, yanking it backward, sending her tumbling into his arms.
His angry words and hot breath tore into her ears.
"That was not very intelligent, Sophia. You disappoint me." The girl mewled something between tears as Ruthven did something surprising. 'She's expecting punishment,' he thought wryly. He loved surprising his slaves - and whether it was the tenderness he felt for this particular slave girl or something else, he found himself doing the unexpected.
