The Master Downstairs — Chapter 3
After getting dressed, I gathered Brenda and Kristen back in the living room with Jeremy, still tied to the table. He was shaking though and I realized, he’s been tied up for a while. Indeed, he had to use the restroom, but did not want to bring it up since I had wanted him tied to the table. I released him and a few minutes later he returned, kneeling next to the two women.
This brought up a whole bunch of new questions I needed to think about though. What about the other people he had enslaved, were they in a similar state. What should I do with them?
“Jeremy, the other people you’ve used the device on, are they all waiting for instructions to go to the bathroom as well?”
“No Master, I told them to behave as they usually would while I’m away”
“Did you tell them to keep this a secret?” Based on how Brenda had responded, I knew that wasn’t the case. The look on his face said it all as he replied, “No Master.”
“Ok, everyone get dressed, we’re going to find everyone who’s been changed by the device.”
While the women went off, I told Jeremy that he needed to think through the implications of his program and start coming up with suggestions to discuss with me. I started to think through what this meant, and how dangerous their unwavering obedience could be. An inadvertent misunderstood comment and they would do something that could not be undone. I told him to pack up his equipment and be ready to take it with us.
I went upstairs to find Kristen finishing up. I asked her to stay calm, but to tell me how she felt about everything that had changed.
“Master, When I saw your face and realized you were my Master, I was so relieved. I did not know how I was going to tell you that although I was still your wife, that I now belonged to someone else. Everything since then has been wonderful, and much simpler, I think about you first, and want to do what you ask me to do.”
“How do you feel about the other people, or Jeremy for doing this to you?”
“Master, they belong to you, so I’m perfectly fine with them or whatever you want to do with them. As for Jeremy, I’m not sure why he picked me, but I am happy I belong to you.”
“How do you think I’m doing so far?”
“Master, whatever you want to do is fine with me.”
Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Lord Acton said it and try as I might, I couldn’t avoid thinking that it now applied to me as well. After some thought, I gave her additional instructions. I needed her to try to advise me the way she always had, and not just accepting whatever I wanted to do. I did not want to lose my partner, even though this had been done to her. After some back and forth, it seemed the best way to phrase it was “look out for my greater interests and point out when you think there might be consequences to my decisions”.
Gathered together in my living room again, I shared my new rules.
- You will not reveal, either through action or inaction, that you are a slave to anyone who does not already know that you are one.
- If you are given an instruction by your Master which is likely to hurt someone including yourself or might reveal that you are a slave, please ask the Master to confirm the instruction.
- If I tell you to “Behave Publicly”, you will act like you did before you were a slave while still obeying specific instructions and all the rules above. Specifically, you will not call me Master or otherwise indicate we are anything more than either a friend, or what we were before you were changed. If I tell you to “Behave Privately”, you will act as the slave you are, regardless of circumstance. If you are alone with me and your fellow slaves, you can Behave Privately. If you are anywhere else, unless told otherwise, Behave Publicly.
- It pleases me to see smart people getting better at what they like to do. If you had a sport, hobby or interest, I would like to see you continue doing that and teaching me about it. If you have a job, I want you to continue doing it as well as you can within the time limits of that job.
“As soon as we leave the house, I want you all to Behave Publicly. Brenda, you’ll drive us to your house.”
Jeremy rode up front while Kristen and I were in the back. I asked Jeremy to start calling his slaves to gather at Brenda’s house.
One by one they arrived in Brenda’s living room. They all looked at me sitting on the couch with two naked women kneeling next to my feet. Jeremy was clothed, kneeling to my right. He told each one that I was his Master and that they should treat me as their Master as well. As soon as they heard this, they undressed and knelt next to one of their sister slaves. So far, Jeremy was the only male slave. I was happy none of them were underage. It also seemed that Jeremy and I shared our tastes in women. After about an hour, Jeremy said that was all of them. He had been very very busy, I didn’t know quite what to make of all of them. Kristen was flushed red and shivering so I asked what her thoughts were.
“I want to see you take each one of them Master and make them yours”
