XI
The ride back to, well I guess you could call it home, seemed all too
short after all of the excitement. I spent most of the ride on my back facing
up. All I could see was the roof of the car and Minx sitting, enjoying the ride.
We came to a stop and I expected to be hooded and led out of the car.
Instead Minx looked down at me, removed the collar, and ordered me to get up,
get out of the car and walk forward ten paces
I did as I was told. Above were the stars in a cold black sky and in
front of me the sea of light that marked a city.
I turned and saw Minx standing by the limo, a goblet in her hand,
looking at me.
"This place is special to me M - 5. I brought my first lover here and
made him my slave. I have had many slaves since then but you are the only other
I have brought here."
"Why did you bring me here Controller?"
"Because you will be my finest creation. And you will be my last
creation. "
I was flattered and startled at the same time. Her last creation?
"Your last creation Controller?" I asked.
"Yes M - 5. You will be the last slave I train."
I knelt before her.
"But why?"
She hesitated, unsure of revealing something that perhaps I should not
know.
"I have other obligations I must attend to that make it impossible to
continue."
She said it with a certain sadness, like a child who is told it is time
to come in from playing in the warm twilight of summer.
"Minx, my Controller."
"Yes Michael?"
"I will be your finest creation. I will show the world your skills"
I indicated the goblet in her hand.
"It's empty. Would you fill it for me?" I asked.
"With what Michael?"
"I wish to drink your hot wine. Will you give me that blessing?"
Her face reflected the city neon and starlight. She removed her dress
and stood clad in her garter belt, stockings, and high heels and placed the
goblet on the ground below her.
Facing the stars above she murmured some words I couldn't hear clearly
and started pissing.
Her hot liquid filled the goblet and splashed upon the ground. She
stopped.
"When you drink this, you will be committed to my service in all ways. I
will no longer bind you, unless it pleases me to do so. You will obey all of my
commands willingly from this day forward. Do you accept this Michael?"
I took the goblet and drank from it. It tasted bittersweet, not at all
what I expected. I said nothing when I finished it, waiting for some sign from
her.
She motioned me forwards and placed my face between her legs.
"Clean me Michael."
I lapped the last traces of urine from her and withdrew.
She dressed and motioned me back into the car, saying nothing in words,
but everything in her stride.
I lay down at her feet again and waited. She placed her heels upon my
chest and motioned the still unseen driver to proceed with our journey. We sat
in silence for the rest of the trip, myself wondering if I pleased her, and Minx
thinking of things dark and unknown to me.
When we arrived I was hooded and collared again. I was led through the
night air in what seemed to be a different direction than I had traveled before.
We entered a building and stopped. The hood was removed and I saw that I was now
in a small cell with a cot. There was a basin and toilet in the cell, and a
window was set into the wall.
"You will be kept here for a time Michael. When I return, you will
either be returned to your pen, or you will become my body servant." was all she
said.
"Yes Controller." was all I could say.
"And Michael", she continued, " if you become my body servant, you may
call me Mistress Minx."
And she left me after locking the door of the cell.
I took advantage of the basin and washed and using the toilet was a
luxury that had been denied me for some time. I stretched out on the cot to
relax and fell asleep
I was awakened by the sound of a tray sliding through the slot in the
otherwise solid cell door. I ate the food and lay down again to continue my
vigil. Another meal came, and then a third. Had I been waiting a full day? Under
the food dish of the third meal was a note.
"It is being decided xxx M."
Who was deciding what though? Didn't Minx have free choice in her
slaves, or was there a power over her. Perhaps the same power that had said that
I would be her last?
I heard a key click in the lock of the cell door. Without thinking I ate
the note. If there was a higher authority involved, I did not wish harm to come
to Minx.
When the door opened I found Lydia standing there. Her leather boots
were polished and gleaming, and she wore a studded corset. In her hand was a
gun. Not a normal gun, but a TASER.
The TASER fires two fishhook shaped barbs into a target then sends a
high voltage current into it.
"Out!" she commanded
I stepped out and knelt before her.
"You seem to be quite a troublemaker, piglet. I'm tempted to say you
tried to escape, just so I can shoot you. But I won't ...YET!"
She pulled a hood from her belt and tossed it at me.
"Take all of your clothes off and put the hood on. Quickly!"
I obeyed her, keeping a watchful eye on her gun hand.
When hooded, she dragged me to my feet and ordered me to walk ahead of
her.
I was led back to the Chamber of Ay'esha, where the hood was removed,
and I was pushed through the door roughly.
The room now resembled a throne room. At one end of the room was an
ornately decorated chair, with lesser chairs on each side. The room was now
candle lit, and music was being played softly. I could see people in the shadows
watching me. Who were they I wondered and what was this?
"Kneel here. Do not move until ordered to." Lydia ordered. She stalked
away into the shadows. I waited trying not to look around. I focused my
attention on the big chair.
The music changed and became harsher. It was "Mars, God of War" from the
Planets, by Holst. As it reached the finale a voice called out clearly for all
to hear.
"The Matriarchs of Ay'esha approach! All bow and reflect on their
glory!"
I averted my eyes from the dais in respect. I was going to be in the
presence of the leaders of the group, the ones who even Minx obeyed.
A voice called out to me.
"You are the subject known as M - 5. Speak!"
"I am." I replied.
"We have been petitioned to allow your service to the woman you know as
the Controller, Minx. Before we decide this, we will ask you to answer our
questions with truth. Look upon us!"
I raised my eyes to seen Anna in the main chair, splendid in a purple
robe. On her right side sat Minx and on her left, Lydia. I looked at the other
women sitting on the dais. I knew some of these women from the news. There was
the Wife of a President of the United States. Next to her was the Actress who
became the owner of a major studio. The Owner of a newspaper chain. There were
others I did not know.
"M - 5, you see before you the Matriarchs of Ay'esha. For 100 years we
have controlled the world in subtle ways. We have great power and great
responsibilities. If we decide to allow your service, you will be in service to
all of us. Any one of us may need to command you, and you will obey. Is that
understood?"
"Yes. If I am permitted to enter into the service of Ay'esha, I will
serve as needed." I said.
"These services may not be of your liking M - 5. You may be asked to do
things that are distasteful to you. You will obey even those orders?" Anna
asked.
"I will obey those orders as well."
"Even if the order is to kill someone?" Lydia demanded.
I hesitated.
"No! I will not kill in cold blood."
"If they are a threat to us, you must kill them." Lydia pressed.
"You have stayed hidden from the eyes of the world for many years. Have
you ever had to kill to protect your secret?" I challenged.
There was a long silence in the room. It was broken by Minx.
"No. Even those who failed were not killed. They were returned to the
outside world."
"And no one ever talked?" I asked.
"The world believes what it wishes to believe M - 5. Those who talked
were dismissed as having perverse fantasies." was Anna's reply.
"Why do you wish to join in our service M - 5?" the Actress asked.
"I am in love with the Controller and wish to serve her interests."
"Love is not a reason; it is a hormone problem." was the scathing reply
from the Owner.
"The Controller taught me to forgive myself for the death of my wife and
child. She lay to rest the ghosts of my soul. I owe her my service for returning
my life to me."
" It is not a debt to be repaid." said the Wife. "It is something that
can not be repaid."
"And that is why I wish to enter her service. I will give everything I
can as a token."
"M - 5, you know that the Controller will leave someday. She has told me
of your fear of being abandoned again. She will leave eventually, and this can
not be changed." Anna said.
" I will be hers for the time I have with her. I learned that from my
wife. We had six and a half years. I will cherish the time I have with the
Controller. And perhaps when she leaves, she will give me to another who wishes
a well trained pet. "
There was a silence that seemed to be eternal. I waited for the next
question.
"M - 5, crawl to us and kneel before the Controller", Anna ordered.
I crawled across the room, head down. When I reached Minx I placed my
head at her feet.
"Controller Minx, you have heard the answers from this person. Do you
wish to accept him into your service?" Anna intoned.
I felt Minx's hand on my bowed head, and then she raised my head so I
could see her face.
"I accept the service of Michael for as long as time permits. He is
mine!"
"Michael, do you enter into this service of your own accord, with
perfect love and perfect trust?" Anna continued. "With perfect love and perfect
trust." I said softly.
"By the powers of Ay'esha and Astoreth, I declare this slave as bonded.
So mote it be!"
