Chapter 7: The First Fuck
"AngNaveena chose well." Eesha ran a silken cloth over Mira's skin. They were standing at the edge of the bathing chamber, a round room that took up the bottom floor of one of the towers in the House of angNaveena. Mira's skin, now dry, was still warm from the pool, her pores open, her thousand-and-one erogenous areas---so adeptly caressed by Eesha---receptive and ready. The room steamed with the scent of bandy oil.
"You are certainly the loveliest Captive I have ever seen." Eesha stroked the air surrounding Mira's body, and Mira felt her emotions kneaded and smoothed flat. "AngNaveena's clients will approve. "
"Clients?" Mira had not been invited to speak, but the question popped out before she had a chance to stop it.
"Naughty, naughty," laughed Eesha. "But you may speak. Your Master's bandy plantation has grown five-fold since he reached the age of maturity. His new groves now yield some of the best bandy wine on Tir, and the old groves are unusually prolific. Your Master has an instinctive genius for bandy agriculture . . . And he has caught the attention of the Bandy Traders' Collective, but several potential clients lost interest when they realized he did not have enough whores to satisfy them during their visits. He will need to purchase at least three more Captives before the bandy industry will take him seriously."
Mira felt a familiar sour feeling in the pit of her stomach. Her Master had not chosen her out of love, or even out of lust, but because he needed a new whore, another fuckable body to offer his clients. Disappointment stewed inside her.
"Oh dear," murmured Eesha. "I was to prepare you for the first fuck, and now you are all jagged and resistant." Her eyes darkened. "AngNaveena will not be pleased. Here, inMira, let me at least soften your edges. Open your legs." Mira obediently shifted to a wider stance, and Eesha knelt down in front of her and ran her fingertips deftly up and down Mira's inner thighs, leaving a new feeling in her gut: dull anxiety overlaid with a buzz of pleasure.
"There," said Eesha, standing up. "That will have to do. If we had more time, I would suck your nipples, but the Master and Mistress are waiting. We need to go." She stood on the tips of her toes, reaching for the stone shelf that stood next to the bathing pool, and pulled down a purple collar and leash tooled with gold spirals. She gently wrapped the collar around Mira's neck, looking anxiously into her eyes. "Please do not resist, inMira. It is your duty and your destiny to cum when your Master commands it." Mira could not answer, even when given permission to speak. She felt colonized by feelings of resistance, and felt doomed to disobedience.
Eesha led Mira out of the bathing chamber, and across the courtyard to the bedroom tower. Mira followed, feeling the collar tug against her neck. They stepped onto the external staircase and climbed in slow spirals until they reached the top. Mira's heart felt toxic with apprehension and distrust. She felt a strong urge to turn, to run down the staircase on her tenderized feet, and flee into the Tiran wilderness.
Eesha knocked twice. "Yes, we're waiting," came Naveena's voice from inside. Eesha pushed open the door with the flat of her violet hand, and they entered. The room was much like Mira's, with a large bed and a small table. A jug and a large flask stood on the table. High on one side of the wall hung a coat, a sack, a bandy rod, and what looked like a pair of smaller vine-leashes with loops at the end of each. Underneath these few hanging items, on a chair facing the room, sat Naveena, dressed in folds of gold and black, her white curls piled elaborately on her head. She pressed her hands together and looked intently at Mira. "Well, girl, you are now a member of my household, and my husband's whore. He will fuck you today, and we will find out how obedient you are. Eesha, give inMira a glass of bandy wine." Eesha dropped her end of the leash and hurried to the table; she poured a cup of wine and handed it to Mira. Mira held the flask. It felt cold in the palm of her hand. "Whore, you will drink." Mira hesitated. AngNaveena did not love her. Why should she obey his wife?
Naveena snorted. "AngNaveena, you have brought home another Captive like inAva. A bad bandy-fruit. You will need to train her severely in order to avoid another disaster." Mira wondered vaguely which Captive inAva was.
"No, wife, this one is a prize." AngNaveena smiled at Mira from the edge of the bed on which he was seated, his large Tiran eyes carefree, confident of her obedience. "Drink it, inMira." Reluctantly, Mira tipped the cup into her mouth and swallowed the bitter brew. "See, wife; inMira is a good girl." Mira felt the magic words enter her belly along with the wine, spreading hot desire. Her resistance began to unravel.
"Now, girl, I will name the position," said Naveena coldly, but angNaveena shook his head.
"Not yet, wife. InMira and I have unfinished business. She was naughty in the cart yesterday, but I did not have time to punish her. Before we proceed, I will need to spank her."
Naveena raised her eyebrows, and smiled. "Naughty in what way, husband?"
"She sat in an inappropriate position in the cart."
