Chapter 10

The girls reach the mall – Lily Carter

Natalie, Traci and I had arrived at the mall and were walking through it like we had no cares in the world. Just three friends enjoying an afternoon of shopping as we approached the jewelry store.

Kathy was standing at the counter and I said, “We are here to pick up our Master’s order. He told us to be here at exactly three and it would be ready when we arrived.”

Kathy stated, “It isn’t ready and won’t be ready for at least another hour.”

I took out my phone and speed dialed the Master, putting it on speaker. Kathy’s jaw looked as if it would hit the counter when the Master angrily answered the phone, “Where are you? You are supposed to be at the jewelry shop.”

I answered, “We are, but Master, Traci’s collar is not ready and the manager said it would not be ready for at least another hour or so.”

The Master angrily stated, “Put that winey bitch on the phone.”

I answered, “She is listening Master, you are on speaker.”

My Master yelled, “Kathy, why isn’t it ready? You promised it would be ready and my girls need to be somewhere else in 15 minutes. Get if for them now.”

Nervously, Kathy said, “But, sir, it isn’t ready.”

I stated, “She played this game with my Mistress the other day. After she got a little irritated, Kathy pulled the order out from under the counter and handed them to her. Sir, do I need to make a scene. After all, she is just a submissive and I am a Mistress. You would think she would have a little more respect than that, don’t you?”

Master asked, “Lily my pet, what do you recommend?”

I smiled, “I have Traci’s original dog collar and leash. I could put it on her and elevate your level 4 Tracy to Mistress and have her lead Kathy out of here. How does that sound Master? When we arrive at your house I know where the Mistresses paddles are. I was thinking of using them on Natalie, she has been in rare form this afternoon.”

Master laughed at that. “You know it really sounds like a good idea, but she isn’t one of ours.”

I stated, “But Master, you are the Master of Masters, don’t you own everyone that is collared in your organization?”

Master explained, “The issue here my dear, is that she isn’t collared to anyone in my organization at this time. But, if she continues to displease me like this, I can remove her jewelry shop from our preferred list and put it on the hostile business list. Kathy do you hear me?

Kathy replied, “Yes, sir.”

Master asked, “Kathy how much business would that cost you?”

Kathy swallowed and answered, “Most of it.”

Master stated, “Then stop messing with my girls and give them their collar. And I mean now. She did exactly that, handing it to me. I turned and handed the box to Traci and asked if it was acceptable to her.

Traci looked at it and replied, “It is acceptable Mistress.”

Still acting angry, Master addressed Kathy, “I would like to think someone looking for an organization to join would bend over backwards to become someone’s submissive instead of pissing off one Master after the other by making demands of them. Kathy, they all call me when they send you away or you angrily stalk away from them. You are not your husband’s number one anymore. You are a submissive without a home, burning bridge after bridge behind you. What happened when you called Gerald yesterday?”

Kathy replied, “He hung up on me.”

“Yes, he did, do you know why?”

Kathy lowered her head and replied, “I told him what I wanted and he hung up on me.”

Master stated to Kathy, “You are in no position to be making demands of Masters. It is a submissives job to please their Master, not the other way around. If you do become collared and play the games you used to play with another Master in my organization, what do you think will happen.”

Kathy responded, “Discipline, and not to kindly either.”

Master said, “Think about it Kathy, there aren’t too many more Masters left for you to call. Did you hear what happened yesterday?”

Kathy replied, “Yes I did, he has approached me a number of times and I turned him down. He was quite rude. He threatened to take me by force if necessary and train me in his ways.”

Master asked, “And why do you think he keeps coming back to you?”

Kathy sadly replied, “Because word is out that nobody wants me because I am a potential problem and there aren’t many who would choose to be in his.”

Master explained, “Kathy this is something for you to think about. There are men and women who need to add to their organizations to help balance some of their people out. Why are you still on the market when organizations are looking for people to balance them out?”

Master said, “Lily, you need to hurry and get to your appointment. Get going and Kathy, you need to decide what and where you want to be. Good bye girls, see you at home.”

We were all laughing when we walked away.

Meeting with Melanie – Aimee Bailey

I was ready to go home, but I had to make an appointment with Melanie. I called her on my office phone and put her on speaker. As we were discussing a time and place to talk, my cell phone rang and without thinking I said, “Sorry Melanie, my Master is calling.” I answered, “Hello Master, what can I do for you?”

My Master said, “You can pick me up and take me home. Your girls were perfect this afternoon. I had instructed Lily to call me at exactly three if Traci’s collar wasn’t ready. Lily called exactly when she was supposed to be at the jewelry store to pick up Traci’s collar and had me on speaker.”

“In an angry voice I asked where they were. Lily said they were at the jewelry to pick up Traci’s collar, but Kathy informed them that it wouldn’t be ready for at least another hour. I blew up, telling her to put that bitch on the phone. Lily calmly said that I was on speaker and Kathy was listening. The girls and I really played it up and teased her for a bit leaving Kathy a mess before handing Lily Traci’s collar.”

“You need to make sure you take care of your girls for what they did for me.”

Aimee said, “I will make sure and do something nice for them. All I have to do is talk to Melanie and ... aw crap.”

Master asked, “What?”

Embarrassed I said, “Master, I need to go, I think I really screwed up. Melanie is on the other phone, on speaker and heard our entire conversation. Master, I do need to go, I will fill you in when I pick you up. I’ll have my paddles ready right after we get home. Bye, my Master.”

I took a deep breath and said, “Melanie, I guess you heard all that.”

I noticed that Melanie was laughing, hysterically. I smiled at myself and waited for Melanie to stop laughing. When she stopped laughing I asked, “What’s so funny?” (Thinking, play dumb to the end)

Melanie said, “Aimee, you are in the lifestyle, I knew there was something I liked about you.

I sighed and said, “Guilty as charged, and you?”

Melanie answered, “I was, but I left it when my divorce finalized. My husband couldn’t handle the fact that I was a switch and he was a pure submissive.”

I replied, “I am also a switch and first Mistress to Jeremiah Winslow.”

Melanie exclaimed, “Are you kidding me, you are first Mistress to the Master of Masters. Do you know what that makes you?”

I laughed, “It is starting to sink in, but it is worse than that. Since he collared me, he told me that we might as well be married, because I have a huge target on my back because of who I am a first to. He even made me take my girls down to San Diego and interview Navy Seals to start my personal security team. He said that like him, I would become a target wherever I go.”

Melanie said, “Aimee I really need to go, can we discuss this another time at length and in detail. I have to know how you landed where you are.”

I said, “When you hear the story you will laugh harder than you just did.”

Melanie replied, “Ok, I can’t talk about this in my office.”

I asked, “Melanie, I have just been promoted to manager but can’t keep the position. I really need to talk to you. What are you doing tonight?”

Melanie replied, “Absolutely nothing.”

I asked, “Could you come to our house and we can talk in my Master’s office.”

Melanie said, “I would love too, what time?”

I replied, “How about six, we can have a drink while my girls make dinner. You will love them and I can’t wait to show them off to you. My god, they are beautiful.”

I gave Melanie our address and she said, “See you at six” and hung up.

Melanie sees how they live first hand – Aimee Bailey

At six sharp our doorbell rang, I yelled down for Lily to answer it and waited a couple of minutes before I went down to greet our guest. As I came down the stairs I looked at Lily and smiled, then requested, “Lily, would you and your girls assume your positions?”

Lily called out, “Ladies, positions please.”

Two minutes later they were nude and in position, with Lily just to the left of center of the fireplace, leaving my position vacant, then in order to Lily’s left was Natalie and then Traci.

I said, “Ladies, would you introduce yourself to our guest and state what job you hold when out in public.”

I raised my hand to stop Lily and asked, “Wait a minute. Lily shouldn’t all of you be going to work this week? I hadn’t thought to ask and it seems to me that a couple of you have missed some time at your jobs.”

Lily responded, “Mistress, we all took a week’s leave of absence to deal with some personal issues and to get settled in. We are trying to fully adjust to our new lifestyle as the Master’s and your girls.”

Aimee didn’t smile as she looked down the line, and then returned to Lily, “I will accept that answer for now. But, in the future, these types of decisions need to be approved by me or my Master. We need you to be responsible for our own care and not rely on the Master’s good will.”

“We are going to sit down and create a financial plan for each of you. Also, we need to look at your futures, till now you have just been going with the flow as you needed to survive. You need and deserve more than that to be a complete person. Right now, each of you is confident and starting to develop security as a group.”

“You also need to be able to stand on your own to reach your full potential. At some time in the future you may want a career change, you will need seed money. Have any of you ever thought about going to college or owning your own business? It is my job to help you become all you can be for your own betterment, for the house, and the organization.”

I asked, “Does everyone understand?” But Lily being Lily had to ask one more question. “What if we never want to move on and leave you and the Master?”

I shook my head, looked at Lily and simply said, “We never know what the future brings and the more you grow, the better you can assist your girls to grow. I may become an angry old hag and beat you morning, noon, and night.”

Lily kept smiling and said, “Mistress, are you promising me an orgasm like I had the other day after you beat my ass?” She continued saying, “If you give me a beating like the one I received the other day, another orgasm like that, and then you expect me to leave you, I’ll take that any day.”

I said, “Lily you are incorrigible, be very careful what you wish for. “Now, starting with Lily, introduce yourselves and tell our guest what you do for a living.

Lily said, “Ma’am, my name is Lily and I am a waitress at an upscale restaurant here in town.”

Then Natalie said, “I work at the shoe store where the Master buys our Mistress her shoes.”

And last but not least, Traci introduced herself, “My name is Traci and I am a waitress at the local buffet restaurant.”

Melanie said, “It is nice to meet you ladies, I am Melanie and sometimes work with your Mistress as a legal consultant.”

Then I said, “Ladies, I believe you were going to make our evening meal. Would you care to get started?”

They all replied, “Yes, Mistress.”

Aimee spoke to Lily, “Melanie and I have some business to take care of. How much time do we have before dinner is ready?”

Lily replied “We have about an hour before everything is ready. We just need time to put it together and cook it in the oven.”

I told her “Thanks, you should probably get started.”

All three replied, “Yes, Mistress.” They headed toward the kitchen and got started.

As an afterthought, I said, “Lily, would you pour us some wine and bring it to the Master’s office?”

Lily smiled, “Yes, Mistress.”

Aimee looked at Melanie and asked, “Would you come upstairs with me and I will introduce you to the Master? He should be in our bedroom reading and then we can go into the office and discuss our business.”

I led and Melanie followed me upstairs to the bedroom where the Master sat reading. As we entered, he set down his book, stood, and approached us. I introduced Melanie, “Master, this is Melanie, she owns the legal office I mentioned to you this morning. She is here to discuss business and to see how our house runs.”

Master turned to Melanie and said, “My intuition tells me that my number one’s little faux pas this afternoon sparked your curiosity or that you are already in our lifestyle.”

Melanie chuckled and said, “To tell you the truth sir, both. I used to be in the lifestyle, but my husband left me and I divorced him. He was very insecure and being a pure submissive, while I was a switch, who was being given more responsibility, being treated differently, and having my own staff. Looking back, I don’t think he ever really accepted his role as a submissive. I think it finally got to him. He removed his collar and asked our Master to release him. He then disappeared from the face of the earth.”

“I filed for divorce and after hiring a private investigator to track him down, he signed the papers and disappeared again. I haven’t heard a word from him in over 5 years.”

Melanie continue explaining, “My Master and I had a very long and emotional discussion. He suggested that I remove my collar and when I am ready I am welcome to return. His thought was that I needed to move on, finish college and figure out where life was leading me. He paid to complete my legal education, pass the bar exam for this state, and helped me set up the business I now own.”

My Master replied, “I remember this situation. Him and I sat down over a few drinks and put this plan together. I am very glad it worked out so well for you. If I remember correctly, he also told you that you would always be welcome to return whenever you were ready.”

Melanie said, “You are correct, but I haven’t had time to even think about it while trying to establish my business in such a cutthroat market and keep it above water.”

Master said, “I’ll let you two get to your business. I understand that Aimee has quite an offer to discuss with you. Oh, and Aimee, did you discuss dinner plans with your girls?”

Aimee replied, “I have and the girls are downstairs putting dinner together as we speak.”

Master smiled, “That is what all the noise is about.” He was shaking his head.

I smiled and said, “I will talk to them about that.”

He replied, “Please don’t, I really love the way they work together. They are turning out to be your little mini me’s. And I believe that to be the highest compliment that your little submissives can give you. I just hope I survive it.” He laughed and went back to his book.

Melanie and I walked into the office and closed the door. Melanie said, “Oh ... my ... god, I can’t believe this house. Everything is so relaxed and everyone just accepts their position as if they were born to it.”

There was a knock on the door and I said, “Please enter.” Lily walked in and handed each of us a glass of red wine. “Thank you, Lilly, how is it going in the kitchen?”

Lily replied, “Everything is under control. They are making lasagna. I hope that is ok.”

I smiled, “That is great, and could you try keeping the noise down a little? Our Master is trying to read.”

Lily giggled, “Natalie is being a little mischievous tonight. She startled Traci and she almost dropped the lasagna when she put it in the oven.”

I just shook my head, “Lily, you are the Mistress. Please keep her in line.”

Lily replied, “Yes, Mistress” as she left the office.

I turned back to Melanie, “You should have been here a couple of days ago when some discipline had to be doled out.”

Melanie said, “Yeah, I caught Lily’s drift, did you really beat her?”

I replied, “We all got our asses beaten as we were being very disobedient and more than a little insubordinate. Let’s discuss that over dinner. The girls will want to tell you all about it.”

Melanie smiled at me, “Aimee, why am I here?”

I replied, “Melanie, I want to offer you a job.”

Melanie’s mouth dropped open as she said, “What?”

I explained, “Melanie, when the board had the asshole arrested and his cronies fired, they gave me the manager’s position. Long story short, my Master had already asked me to resign, take over managing his fortune, help run his organization, and help him rebuild his house.”

Melanie then asked, “What about my people?”

I explained, “Melanie, here is what I am suggesting, a merger.”

Melanie choked out, “You want my little legal office to merge with his multibillion dollar company?”

I laughed, “No, what we want to do is buy your company and merge it with our legal office. It is a standalone business under the umbrella of the Winslow Corporation. We are proposing to let you run it as if you own it. As the companies responsible, basically owner, manager will also have a seat on the Board of Directors as their main legal counsel. Now, please don’t fall off your chair, but from what I see you will be earning more than your company brings in now and all of your staff should nearly double their annual salary. Yeah, they pay their legal and accounting staff very well. So, what do you think?”

I then said, “Wait, since you are floundering around and I am putting together a personal staff, I will also offer you a collar as my personal legal counsel and part of my security team. By being my collared, you will fall under the umbrella of and be protected by my personal security staff, since you will be in a number one position to me.”

I continued, “As you know, with that collaring, you will still be held accountable to all that comes with the collar. Your business is your business and we will never breach that part of your life, but your personal life is mine and my Master’s as you already know. Is this clear?”

Melanie told me, “Part of the reason I left the comfort of my organization was because I could see that my Master was pushing me to finish my legal training so he could use me in all aspects, in other words, his free attorney to use as he needed.”

“That is why I didn’t go back after completing everything. As it was, he tried to take over my business a couple of times and bring me back under his influence. He went as far as to try and blackmail me, holding all the money he spent on my education and helping to set up my business as the ransom.”

“I told him that I needed to do this on my own. Just so you know, I paid back every dime he spent on my education and setting me up in business. Then I told him to back off or I would file a lawsuit against him for harassment. I even thought about starting my own house, but deep down, I still have that submissive side that requires attention. I found that I could not start my own house as that area of my life would not be addressed. Aimee, I still feel the pull to have it addressed and fight it every day.”

I smiled, “Melanie, I understand and will not press you for an answer tonight, but I think I have a treat for you, if you want to play along? Are you up to some fun with my girls tonight?

Melanie looked at me with lust in her eyes and said, “Really.” Just as she said that, there was a knock on the door.

I said, “Come in.”

It was Traci, “Dinner is ready to be served.”

“Thank you, Traci, we will be right down.”

I noticed that Melanie couldn’t take her eyes off Traci as she went down the hall. Melanie turned to me and said, “She is so beautiful and so confident.”

I laughed, “You should have seen her yesterday. We had a collaring ceremony in the morning for me, Lily, Natalie, and maybe Traci.”

Melanie said, “Wait a minute, you just told me that your Master is going to turn his entire fortune over to you to manage and he just collared you yesterday?

I replied, “Yes.”

Melanie’s eyes went wide and asked, “How long have you known him?”

I replied, “Six days”.

Melanie gasped, “A grand total of six days, really?”

Aimee replied, “Yes.”

Melanie, still surprised, “You must be something special to win his trust that quickly.”

I knew the next question before it was asked and started toward the door. As I was opening the door, Melanie asked, “How did you meet him?”

Walking out the door I replied, “I had him arrested.” I kept walking down the hall.

As I got to the top of the stairs and looked back, Melanie was standing in the office doorway, mouth hanging open, staring at me.

I laughed and told her, “Close your mouth Melanie.”

I was going down the stairs when Melanie caught up to me and said, “You can’t leave me hanging like that, I have to hear the whole story.”

I turned to her and smiled, “Dinner is waiting, and we can discuss that over dinner too.”
