"You really think you can beat me?"
Jessica looked back at Nicole who was barely keeping up pace for their morning jog.
"I've been getting better you know."
"Yeah, but you really think you could beat me in race? You know I just finished that marathon"
"Marathon god yes I know, everyone you talk to knows. It's all you can do not to brag about it every two minutes. If you are so confident in your abilities why don't you put your money where your mouth is? Or are you too scared?"
I knew Jessica would take the bait; in fact, I was counting on it. I have been hoping to find a chance to knock Jessica down a peg or two. She has always been the arrogant and boastful friend who had it way too easy through life. She had perfect long blonde hair, green eyes, beautiful sun kissed skin which she always like to show off. She of course never had any problem finding cute boys who would fall over themselves to have a chance with her. I am not going to lie, I have always been a little jealous of Jessica, who wouldn't be? I also might have had a bit of a crush on her too, which is why I could feel myself already getting excited at the thought of my plan actually coming to fruition.
"Scared!? Of someone who was too unsure of herself to even enter a marathon let alone finish one? Look, if you really want to get put in your place so badly I would be happy to oblige."
"Sounds perfect, what do you want if you win?" I asked.
"Well, I have been letting the house get away from me lately. So I think having a maid for a week would be perfect. I think that type of menial labor suits you well."
"Fine, if you win I'll be your maid for a week. And if I win, you are my slave for the weekend. Anything I want, you do; no questions asked. What do you say?"
"You can have whatever you want; I was just trying to decide where I should have you start. Probably the bathroom; John and his buddies were over last night. I still can't understand how grown men have such a hard time aiming."
I knew Jessica probably had me in a long distance race, but I had never really sprinted in front of her since we are always just jogging. I ran track in high school and haven't lost too much of my speed.
"Ok Jess, first to make it back to my house wins. Fair enough?"
"I'm ready whenever you are sweetie."
With that, I took off down the street. It was only a few blocks to reach my house and I already had a pretty good lead. I was feeling I had this in the bag, so I decided to look behind me. The look on Jessica's face was priceless, half shock and half fear; I loved it!
I reached my driveway an easy four seconds before her. She was looking down at the ground as we both stood there breathing heavily, a huge grin forming on my face.
"Oh man, this is going to be fun."
"You little shit; I have never seen you run that fast."
"Makes no difference now, and calling me a little shit just won't due. You will refer to me as Master from now on. You won't speak or act without me telling you to, do you understand?"
"Nicole, there is no way I am going to be your slave for the day. So get that shit eating grin of your face."
"I was afraid you might feel that way, I was hoping we could both be nice and live up to our ends of the bargain without things having to get messy. But if you insist on trying to back of our little deal, I am going to be forced to show John this."
I held out my phone in front of her where I had up a picture of Jessica blowing some random guy at a party we went to not too long ago. If her fiancΓ© John saw it, their wedding would be off for sure. I didn't necessarily want to end up using black mail, but I didn't feel too bad about it either; she was cheating on her fiancΓ© after all.
"You bitch, you wouldn't."
"If you honor our bet, I won't have to."
I could tell this was killing Jessica. She is so proud and stubborn; the thought of being submissive in any aspect of her life must be killing her.
"I can't fucking believe this.... fine Nicole, I'll be your stupid slave or whatever for the weekend; but after you have to delete that picture!"
"You aren't the one who gets to make commands anymore, now get your ass inside my house."
Jessica started to walk past me; I grabbed her by her hair and pulled her head back.
"Ugh! Let go!"
"When I tell you to do something, you respond with, "Yes Master." Do you understand?"
She settled down and stopped struggling under my grip after she realized I wasn't going to let go until I got what I wanted.
"...yes Master."
"Good, now get in the house."
----- SWITCHING TO JESSICA'S PERSPECTIVE -----
I stood there in the middle of Nicole's living room not knowing what was about to unfold. I was still in shock that all of this was even happening. I could hear her close the door behind me and walk past, I was afraid to move after Nicole showed me she had no problems using pain to get her way.
I could hear Nicole taking of her shoes and throwing them towards the door. There was a seat directly across from her which she pointed to and told me to sit; I did as I was told.
"Whew....well that was one hell of a work out wouldn't you say? I don't know about you, but my feet are killing me. A foot massage would be perfect right now."
She laid her feet in my lap.
"Well go ahead; take my socks off first though."
I started to grab the top of one of her socks and she pulled back.
"I never said take them off with your hands, use your teeth slave. Show me your obedience."
I clinched my teeth to keep from talking back. I have never been this humiliated, but I didn't know what else I could do. She might be bluffing about the picture, but I can't risk my future marriage on a guess. I could tell Nicole was just eating this up too. She had always been jealous of me. Jealous that all of her boyfriends couldn't keep their eyes off of me when I walked in the room. Jealous that I was about to have a husband while she has been single for almost half a year now. I knew she had to be getting off on this.
Reluctantly, I picked up her right foot and bent my head down to grab the top of her sock with my teeth. I could smell the sweat it was holding in and felt it on my cheek as I finished peeling it off. I opened my mouth and let the sock fall to the floor next to me, then began taking the next sock off. Once Nicole's feet were free, she moaned a little and stretched out her toes.
"Oh the cool air feels so nice; I needed to let them breathe. I really worked up a sweat beating you, they can't smell too nice. In fact, I think they are a bit too sweaty for you to give me proper foot massage. Why don't you clean them off first? I don't have a towel nearby, so you can just use your tongue instead."
I could see the grin stretch across Nicole's face.
"You want me to lick your feet!?"
"If it helps, dogs do it to their masters all the time as a sign of affection. After all you are my pet now. In fact, since you are my pet you might as well beg first."
I couldn't look Nicole in the eyes, I was too embarrassed. But I also couldn't help feel a little excited. I have always been the one with the power in all of my relationships. My husband worships the ground I walk on, and I pay him back by allowing him to be with me. I always had the upper hand, but not today. The vulnerability felt exhilarating and humiliating at the same time, but I still was not ready to give Nicole the satisfaction.
"...fine, I'll lick your feet. But I will not beg you to let me do it."
Nicole quickly sat up, her face inches from mine. I could feel her nails as she drug them up my legs stopping at my thighs.
"Somehow, you still don't understand what position you are in here."
Her nails started slowly digging into my skin. I let out a little whimper in pain.
