“That’s my good love slave,” he said, petting her long hair. “Now clean it up with your panties.” She did so immediately, embarrassed to have made a mess. He took the thong from her and kissed it. “This, I keep.”
Both dressed quietly while the others finished with their sessions. Before he left, she knelt beside him and bowed. “Thank you, Tono.”
He told her to lift her head up and then said softly, so only she could hear, “I will be back for you.”
She smiled at him affectionately. “If it pleases you.”
When he left, she turned in the direction of the four trainers. She kept her head bowed in the respectful kneeling position she preferred. After all the men had left, Sir spoke to the class. “Those who have not been called to meet privately will proceed to the commons. Someone will come to get you for the second practicum.”
Brie watched poor Taylor follow the silent and foreboding Marquis out of the room. She could see Taylor shaking. How bad would her punishment be? At least the girl always had the option to quit if it got too rough.
Sir nodded to Blonde Nemesis and only said one word. “Follow.”
Brie watched helplessly as Sir left with her. To keep herself from falling apart, she reflected on Tono’s lovemaking. Even if Sir no longer wanted her, at least she had a Dom she adored.
Facing the Unknown
Brie and Sanders proceeded to the commons and found a lovely salad and some wine set out for them. The two sat down and began eating quietly. “What’s your first name?” Brie asked between bites.
“Teri.”
Brie held out her hand. “Well, hello, Teri. My name is Brie.”
Teri took her hand and shook it firmly. “Pleasure to make your acquaintance. Hey, do you think Taylor will be okay?”
“I have to believe the school wouldn’t be world renowned if they abused their students.”
“I know, but man, I wouldn’t want to be her right now. That was brave of you to stick up for her like you did.”
“I just hated how Blondie—I mean, Wilson—tattled on her. Especially after Mr. Gallant instructed us to support each other.”
“Yeah, I don’t trust that woman farther than I can throw her. I can’t believe she is getting special treatment from Sir for being a rat.”
Teri couldn’t have known how her words would affect Brie. She suddenly imagined Sir mounting Blondie as they spoke, and it made her blood run ice cold. “Oh well, eventually she’ll get hers,” she grumbled.
They were finishing their meal when Taylor walked in. Her eyeliner was smeared on her cheeks as if she’d been crying, but she seemed peaceful. She sat down next to them and started to eat.
“Are you okay?” Brie asked.
She looked up from her food and nodded. Then she went back to eating in silence.
“Are you planning on staying in the program?” Teri asked.
Again, she looked up and nodded, but didn’t speak.
Brie decided to ask her a question that could not be answered with a simple yes or no. “So, my name is Brie and this is Teri. What’s your name?”
Taylor smiled and started playing with her food instead of answering them. Brie looked over at Teri and shrugged.
Taylor pushed her plate over, and Brie saw that she had spelled out the name ‘Lea’ in green beans.
“Your name is Lea?” Brie asked.
She nodded and took the plate back, stabbing the green beans and eating them with gusto.
“I guess she isn’t allowed to talk as part of her punishment,” Teri commented.
“Yep, that’s a safe bet,” Brie agreed. She patted Lea on the back. “I’m glad you’re staying with us. I enjoy your jokes.”
