Once Devon had left the darkened room, he paused for a moment in the hallway to calm his breathing and slow his racing heart. The violence that he had displayed had surprised his pretty little slave but he’d done what he needed to do to discipline her. She would be sore for days to come but now perhaps she’d think twice about questioning him. Only time would tell of course; he’d given her the way out of her demise, a simple thing she had to say, but it wasn’t clear yet if she’d do it. Finally calm, her Master slowly headed back upstairs, securing the basement door behind him, and headed off to the den to get some work done. Turning on a monitor in the wall near his desk, he was able to observe and listen to his captive while he worked and so he settled in.
The hours flew by once he was knee deep in paperwork and e-mails, conducting the business of his corporation remotely. To his surprise, not a peep came from her in the beginning beyond the occasional whimper and whine but as the hours went on, she began to fidget more, her motions jerkier and her sounds more elevated and frequent. She hadn’t said the magic words though so he left her alone, breaking for lunch at one point and even taking Rommel out onto the estate grounds so he could get some exercise. When he returned to the room, he sat and watched, seeing her moving even more now. After another hour or two had passed, it was clear she was beginning to show distress, which gave him pause. Was his little slave scared of the dark?
When she finally said the word, her voice was frantic and loud, virtually screaming for him for all she was worth. He rose from his seat, a grin on his face, and headed back down to the basement, his knife in hand. Opening the door, he stepped inside, letting the light flood in. “I’m here, my beautiful pet.” Instead of letting her go immediately though, he turned and closed the door, plunging the room back into darkness. It was time to test his theory and see how she reacted. Moving quietly through the darkness, knowing she wouldn’t be able to see him, he circled around behind her until he was mere inches away. “Is my pet ready to submit to me yet?” he asked, reaching out with the blade to draw the cold steel tip lightly down her back. When he reached her ass, he pulled it away and moved around to her front. “To do as I say, whenever I say it?” he added, the knife now moving down her chest, circling her breasts and flicking the tips of her nipples before sliding down her flat stomach next. “Or do you need to spend more time in the darkness before you come around to the reality of your new life?” With that said, he removed the knife and stepped back to the far wall, going absolutely still, making it seem as if she was alone again.
