I ended up in an office. I stood naked and exposed while behind a mahogany desk sat a well-tailored woman with a serious look on her face. She was middle-aged and her executive desk, tweed blazer and practical demeanor strongly hinted that she was an authority figure in this place. Being naked and forced to expose my body to her while she wore custom-tailored tweed and allowed her gaze to linger on my shaved pubes, erect nipples, and toned abs. Her intense gaze made me feel both abused and sexually aroused.
The middle-aged woman looked up from her computer, made eyes contact with me and said, "You're the American, Heather MΓ€dchen?"
I hesitated, then she swiveled the computer screen around, revealing images of me. Other than the fact that I was naked, most of them looked a lot like prison mugshots. I was unsmiling and made to stand straight with my hands at my sides. One photo was of me from the front, one from the rear, one left profile and one right profile.
"Yes, mistress, that's me," I finally replied timidly.
The woman gave me a brief nod, clicked on her mouse a few times, and then said, "You've been selected to participate in an annual ritual. It's my job to make sure that your participation goes smoothly and that your responses are entertaining. You will follow all my orders and suggestions, or you will be punished. You will always address me as Mistress Vitsaxis. If you cannot pronounce my name correctly, you will be punished. Do you understand?"
I said that I understood, however, I must have mispronounced her name as I soon found myself over her knee with my ass up in the air. Mistress Vitsaxis sat on her large, polished mahogany desk and furiously spanked my poor bottom until I was screaming in agony and my innocent buttocks felt red hot and scalded.
I remained over her lap after the spanking. For a while, the only sound in the office was the sound of me sobbing. Then Mistress Vitsaxis squeezed one of my abused buttocks and said, "I was watching you on the security camera feed. Of all the slaves here today, your bottom is easily the cutest. That's one of the reasons you were chosen. I would have been disappointed if I was didn't have an excuse to redden your cute little rump. Thank goodness you Americans are so clumsy when you try to pronounce Sklavian names."
After my spanking was over, I was a mess of tears and my bottom felt scalded and tender. I was allowed a few moments to sob and adapt to the fresh pain before Mistress Vitsaxis spoke once again.
"Every year there's a ritual we celebrate called the Riziki Allagi," she explained.
"For this ritual fifteen slaves are selected. They're given clothing, dressed up like free men and women and taken to Neapolis. They're put up in a hotel and given freedom, money and respect for three days. After they have a taste of freedom, their clothes are ripped from their bodies. It's a grand spectacle where the public gets to watch as free men and women are publicly transformed into naked slaves, right before their eyes."
"It sounds cruel, Mistress Vitsaxis," I told her. "To give a slave her freedom, only to strip it away. Many of them have forgotten what freedom and dignity feel like. To remind them of that only to snatch it away seems even crueler than endlessly keeping them in bondage."
"Of course, it's cruel," she replied. "That's the whole point. The looks of dread on their faces when they're forcibly stripped and re-enslaved is delicious. Their suffering is so much more intense after they've experienced a few days of privilege and self-esteem."
I was told to get up off her lap and was given permission to touch my poor bottom and try and sooth away some of the sting from my recent spanking.
"You're going to be a free woman for three days," she explained. "Based on what we've seen today, your reactions when you're re-enslaved should be delicious. You see, those of us organizing this even don't just want slaves with exquisite bodies. We also want slaves who will give scrumptious reactions for the cameras. I think that you'll give us an adorable performance when they rip your clothes off."

It felt awkward wearing clothes again. It took time to get used to them. I had spent so much time being naked, it felt wrong to be covering up and having fabric wrapped around much of my body. Mistress Vitsaxis assured me that I'd get used to it. She'd seen slaves adjusting to clothing after long periods of being naked and told me that the feelings of "wrongness" typically faded within a matter of hours.
Mistress Vitsaxis and the other event overseers eventually got all of the slaves processed, entered into an official database, dressed and then we were all herded onto a bus to be taken to Neapolis. The event organizers made sure that we got off the bus, checked into our rooms and didn't try to escape.
We were given money, suitcases full of clothes, identity cards, toothbrushes, hairbrushes, combs, mouthwash and other things people packed when they checked into a hotel. It felt surreal. I had all the props and property of a tourist, rather than a naked slave. Embracing my new role took some adjusting.
I naturally gravitated towards the other slaves who had checked into the hotel at the same time as me. We all had a great deal in common. We were all young, attractive, sexual submissives and most of us had never been to Sklavia before.
All of the slaves spoke English, although I was the only American. Most of the slaves were Ukrainian, four of them were Hungarian, two were Czech, three were Russian, one was Greek, and one was Norwegian.
Alya was born in Ukraine. She was the daughter of a computer engineer and a teacher. I was born in the United States. I was the daughter of a millionaire and an even wealthier millionaire. They owned hotels and nightclubs
We came from hugely different socioeconomic backgrounds, but I gravitated towards her anyway. We were both lesbians and both had a dark, kinky craving to be bound, disciplined, and sexually objectified. She would invite me into her room and after raiding the mini bar we would get comfortably numb and share stories about our femdom fantasies.
"As strange as it may sound, my first sexual fantasies are centered around the fairy tale of Cinderella," Alya confessed.
"In my fantasies, there's no Prince Charming. There's just me and my wicked stepmother and my two wicked stepsisters."
I nodded as if to say that I understood. I had a massive library of sexual fantasies in my head. There were no men in any of them. It was like there was an entire world where men didn't exist. That's where my imagination took me when I was gripped with sexual passion.
"At first, my stepmother is a just stern authority figure. She turns me over to her daughters and gives them authority over me. They're delighted that their status is superior to mine, and they give me menial chores to do. I'd be ordered to scrub the floors and clean out the fireplace. If I shirked my duties or didn't perform up to their high standards, one of the sisters would pull me over her lap and spank my bare bottom until I was sobbing and crying real tears."
I'd had similar fantasies, but rather than comparing my own feverish femdom dreams to hers, I merely urged Alya to continue with her story.
