Chapter 5: Stripes
The slave hung her head and lowered her eyes. She was confused more than
anything, lost and no longer in control of her life. Making matters worse, she
was once again betrayed by her body and was dripping all over her new Mistress'
chair.
Smiling somewhat evilly, Mistress Gillian noticed her wet slave and sent her
words dancing into the silence nearly unnoticed.
"In due time...." She ran her fingers across athena's erect clit pinching it
between her fingers. " ...you will understand."
Tears began to streak athena's face as she was untied from the chair and
repositioned with her arms above her head chained to the basement ceiling. She
was grateful that the leather cuffs were more comfortable than the rope from
before. "How can I be aroused by this?" she thought to herself. "What is wrong
with me!?"
Miss Gillian appeared in front of athena.
"slave athena, I have to check in on my business. And in the meantime, you will
be kept 'busy'." Aloura said as if she were assigning busy work to a substitute
class.
"rose, you are to 'refill' slave athena......and slave...." Aloura walked closer
to athena.
"you are not to cum." Mistress Gillian ordered.
Rose was relentless in inserting the 8" vibrator into athena's pussy and turning
it on. She was just as gentle, ramming the barely lubricated butt plug into her
ass. Athena squirmed and tried desperately not to make a sound. Unfortunately,
she failed. The slave's whimper triggered Scarlet, and much to her surprise, cut
her current breath in half. Wrapped completely in panic athena's eyes bulged and
her body jerked. She was getting lightheaded when Scarlet retracted and she
noticed rose's face. There was a slight grin perched on her lips.
Rose approached athena as if to speak and said nothing. Even athena knew somehow
that conversing was forbade. But wondered what made her smile.
Rose disappeared from athena's immediate sight and returned with a chastity
belt. Soon athena felt the cold, unforgiving metal cinch her waist and press
against the vibrator and plug. She twitched a bit and closed her eyes, but made
no noise.
Seconds later she heard an Italian whisper slither into her ear and state;
"you're to be striped today".
Athena racked her mind to define the statement. 'What did she mean by striped?"
It was difficult for athena to stay focused on rose's warning because of the
constant vibrating inside her. The vibrator was bumping against the plug,
sending athena to the brink of orgasm. The words "you are not to cum" echoed in
her ears along side "you're to be striped today", reeling her back. She thought
she would explode.
Rose pitied the new slave but thought she was terribly attractive.
"But, Mistress does have impeccable taste"...her mind whispered.
Time passed and athena was suffering severe vertigo due to her excitement alone.
Her eyes were wondering the walls focusing on nothing.
Haydn reappeared and took his place next to Rose. The two stood, hands clasped
at the small of their backs, feet 3' apart, and eyes at the level Mistress
Gillian's collarbone rested.
Awaiting Aloura, Haydn's mind also began to travel. He was going to enjoy
watching athena get her stripes. "I wonder if she'll scream." He thought to
himself. A small smile landing in his eyes as he awaited the event.
Soon, Mistress Gillian joined the "party" in the basement. She was dressed
comfortably in all black. She looked to her right to see her waiting slaves and
then to her left to view her new, dangling addition.
"Hadyn." Aloura barked sharply.
Hadyn moved very quickly to his Mistress and kneeled next to her. She was
pleased with Haydn, he moved with such grace.
"Remove the chastity belt from slave athena." She ordered Haydn.
Without thought Hadyn went to athena and removed the belt. Aloura simply held
her empty hand in the air, signaling for Rose to gather her favorite three
whips.
Whips draped across her arms Rose arrived at her Mistress' feet.
Athena was happy to have the belt's grip loosened from her waist, although the
cold metal had settled to a warm, comfortable temperature. She could hear only
the verbal commands Aloura gave the slaves. She had no clue what was to be her
immediate destiny.
Aloura glanced at her three whips. All three were identical in appearance with
the exception of the butt of the handle. The first was black, the second white,
and the third red. Mistress Gillian picked up the longest, which was the red
whip. She raised the whip to the ceiling and filleted the air. She paused a
pensive moment and chose the white butted whip instead.
Athena heard the whip whistle through the air. It frightened her and set her
senses on edge. She noticed there was silence then footsteps, which she knew
belonged to her Mistress. The heat of Aloura's body crept upon athena's as she
stood directly behind her slave. Out of the silence Mistress Gillian's words
fell onto her slaves' ears.
"Rose, Scarlet."
Rose unfastened Scarlet and released athena's neck. An air of chill ran across
athena's body.
Aloura stood back and observed athena's body. She nodded slightly and took a
deep breath. Athena felt the suspense building in the room as the air thickened.
Aloura, again, raised the whip to the ceiling and brought it down baring a fury
that knew no compromise. Mistress Gillian placed a stripe once on athena's right
then her left thigh, directly below her ass.
Athena screamed and wept. This was cruelty on a level she'd never experienced or
even witnessed. Her mind was blind-sided by pain and was functioning at the
level of a cornered animal.
When Mistress Gillian was done, athena was heavily influenced by her suffering
and nearly unconscious. She now wore three matching horizontal stripes on each
of her upper thighs, two diagonal welts on each cheek and two long vertical
lines on her back.
Athena's body quivered from shock. Aloura stood poised and pleased with her
work. She stepped around her slave and lifted athena's chin. Sweat and tears
moistened the slave's face and she barely opened her eyes. There was a sound
briefly in her ears as her Mistress' "Shhhhh" escaped and athena passed out.
Aloura stepped back and returned her whip to Rose's arms. Rose put the whips in
the proper place and rejoined the group. Aloura ordered Haydn to accompany Rose
in 'putting slave athena to bed'.
The pair carried the limp girl to a large dog cage on the opposite end of the
basement. Her ankles and wrists were cuffed together in front of her and were
secured by a padlock. She was then lifted and lowered onto the thin, cushioned
bottom of the cage.
Rose and Haydn completed the task and resumed the 'wait' position next to
Mistress Gillian.
Aloura turned the basement lights off and returned upstairs trailed by her
slaves. Once in the living room, Aloura lounged in the lazyboy while Hadyn and
Rose knelt on each side of the chair.
"Haydn...." Aloura spoke softly. Haydn knew not to respond, because there was no
question posed. "Do you find my new slave attractive?"
"Yes, Mistress Gillian. This humble servant does find M'lady's new slave
attractive." He answered flatly.
"And you, Rose" Aloura asked.
"Yes, Mistress Gillian. This humble servant finds M'lady's new slave very
attractive." Rose spoke warmly.
Aloura rarely asked the slaves their opinion and both were caught off guard by
the question. The television played softly while the three were in separate
worlds.
"I've got company coming tomorrow, and I want the house prepared for my guest"
Aloura said as if no one was in the room.
Within seconds the pair was gone. Haydn downstairs in the kitchen sweeping the
floor and Rose upstairs vacuuming the master bedroom.
Mistress Gillian relocated to the couch for a short nap.
"Haydn wake me in one hour" She commanded sleepily before drifting off to sleep.
