Then she heard Devin’s voice. “Come in, Anna.”
Anna searched for the opening and walked inside. The space inside was warm, dark, and smelled of sex. It took a moment for Anna’s eyes to adjust, but when they did, she saw Devin sitting naked on the couch with the president between his legs, sucking on his cock.
“Ah, there you are.” Devin smiled. The president looked up and smiled at Anna as well, his hands stroking Devin’s cock. His own cock was hard and glistened in the dim light.
The president’s hand snaked out and grabbed Anna around the waist, pulling her down to her knees. He grabbed a handful of hair and pushed her mouth down onto his cock, pushing hard until he was in her throat. He held her head and fucked her mouth as he returned his own mouth to Devin.
“Anna. Use your pussy to lube and stretch his ass for me.”
Anna hesitated for a minute, trying to understand what Devin was asking of her, and then understood. She dipped her fingers between her legs and then began working them around and into the other man’s tight hole. He groaned as she invaded his body and sucked on his cock. When her fingers dried, she re-moistened them and continued pressing her fingers in and out until he began to relax and moan softly.
Devin stood and pulled her back by her hair, then led her to the bed and pushed her down on her back. “Open your legs, Anna.”
The room spun as she spread her thighs apart. The president kneeled between them and pushed himself in with one swift thrust. Anna groaned. She was still sore from the night before.
The bed moved and Devin appeared over the other man’s shoulder. He was looking down and murmuring to himself, and then the president groaned, his neck muscles bulging as if he were in pain. His dark eyes widened and then rolled back into his head. Devin took Anna’s ankles and wrapped her legs around the president’s waist, holding them in place as he slowly began to fuck the president’s ass.
The weight of both men pressed Anna into the mattress, squeezing her chest, and she struggled to breathe. The president didn’t brace himself for Devin’s thrusts and his body moved with Devin’s movements. He groaned and raised his head back. Anna wasn’t sure if it was in pain or pleasure.
“Anna.”
Looking up, she gazed into Devin’s black eyes and felt him inside her mind. She could feel him drawing part of her out and consuming it. She groaned and the room spun. Her body stiffened as she physically climaxed, though there was no pleasure.
Devin grinned maniacally and threw his head back, shouting out, “Yes! Yes!”
The president groaned and then gave out a primal scream as Anna’s muscles clenched around his cock, squeezing him tight and milking him dry.
Devin released Anna’s legs and stood up. The president collapsed on the bed next to her, eyes open, but unseeing. Anna looked up at Devin with frightened eyes. What had he just done?
“He’s completely under my control.” Devin sat next to Anna on the bed. “Thanks to you, my love.” He brushed her hair away from her face, then leaned forward to kiss her.
What had she done to give Devin this kind of power? What did she possess that allowed him to control other people? To make them obey him? To make Wilhelm and Kurt walk away from her without a single glance back? She didn’t want to help Devin anymore. He was already scary enough.
Devin pulled back and looked at her. “You fear me now, don’t you?”
Anna gave a shaky nod. “Yes, Master.”
He gave a satisfactory smile. “Good. Don’t make me remind you again.”
“Yes, Master,” she whispered.
Chapter 40
After the Gathering, life progressed for Anna peacefully. Or at least, as peacefully as her life could ever be. Her days were filled with classes, rehearsals, and time with Peter. On Fridays, she went to the Manor. Occasionally, Peter attended the Friday Gatherings—he said it was to keep an eye on her—though she spent the night in Devin’s room. She spent Monday nights at Devin’s house, and Tuesdays were particularly long days.
In mid-April, Anna had her debut as a principal dancer in Don Quixote. Travis was Anna’s partner for the performance, while Peter and Aaron were paired with more seasoned principal dancers. Anna loved dancing with Travis, although more than once they got in trouble for not taking things serious during rehearsals. Sometimes Peter would cast an admonishing glance her way, but when he thought she wasn’t looking, Anna would catch a smile and a twinkle in his eyes in the studio mirror. It was clear he wasn’t really upset.
In fact, she thought Peter and Travis were becoming friends. Once when she walked up, she heard them talking in hushed tones about Russia, and the prestigious Mariinsky Ballet, and Travis—an oddly hopeful look in his eyes as he glanced at her—suggested that perhaps Peter take Anna to see it sometime. Though her heart leaped at the thought, she didn’t think even Peter could get permission from Devin to let him take her.
Anna’s performance was met with enthusiastic acclaim, much to her delight and Isaak’s satisfaction. She danced exceptionally and her friends assured her that she was on her way to becoming the star of the company once more. Isaak even announced that she would be dancing the lead in the upcoming production of Romeo and Juliet, with Peter and Aaron taking turns as Romeo.
In June, both Tommy and Tyler got married. Devin took Anna as his guest to both weddings. She didn’t mind attending Tyler’s wedding, but Tommy’s wedding was tough. Tommy’s new wife, Kim, was very sweet and pretty. Anna was happy for him, but felt a tinge of sadness. The way Tommy looked at her didn’t make it easy for her to distance her heart from him. Anna suspected Kim knew about her, although she was very kind to Anna. Kim seemed to feel sorry for her, especially when Devin was harsh.
Anna helped with both Tyler and Tommy’s pre-wedding rituals, though they were very different. Tyler’s was a night of debauchery with as many women as he could get his cock into. Tommy’s was a night of discipline. Anna stayed with him and teased him all night, but he wasn’t allowed any release. Alex hadn’t told Anna what his night had been like, and she wondered which one was more like his. Neither was pleasant to think about.
Anna didn’t dream of Alex. She hadn’t since before the previous Spring Gathering.
