Harem House Chapter 35 Part 3
🕑 Added 2025-02-22 13:00:08 +0000 UTC“Or, we can move on to the next item on the agenda.” Kelly said, clacking the wooden dildo against the coffee table again.
“Can we discuss Lynn?” Kat asked, raising her hand. “We need to do something about her.”
“Yeah, she showed up at the bookstore?” Kelly asked, turning toward Selene.
“Actually, can we hold that conversation until Arthur is here?” Rani asked. “He had something he wanted to say about her. He should be part of that conversation.”
Kelly nodded. Rani was right. Arthur should be part of that conversation, and whatever he had to say about her deserved to be heard. Though she wondered what he had to say. Was he finally going to confide in them about her tormenting him in high school and give them the details?
“Yeah, we can wait for Arthur. You’re right. He needs to be part of that.” Kelly agreed. “In that case, the next item on the agenda is the Renaissance Faire this weekend.”
“Ooo.” Katelyn said. “I have the perfect costume for that.”
“Oh yeah?” Rani asked. “What’s your costume?”
“Well, it’s this pink mini-dress with fairy wings. Kind of Tinkerbell-ish.” Katelyn said.
“Sounds cute.” Mindy said. “The dress I ordered for it came in today. I’m going as a sexy witch.”
“I’m going as a djinn.” Rani said. “My outfit is mostly jewelry, some veils, and a bikini. Maybe body tape instead. I have to check their dress code.”
“It’s beach rules, but I’d suggest shorts and a bikini top instead of tape.” Kelly said. “According to the website, if the costumes are too inappropriate, we might be asked to leave without a refund.”
“I’m wearing my chainmail bikini and some elf ears.” Selene said, posing as if she were currently wearing it.
“You might want to add something else to it.” Kelly warned her. “Maybe some silks or something?”
“I have some you can use.” Rani said.
“Thanks.” Selene bowed her head toward Rani.
“I have a pirate-ish outfit and a corset. I need a tricorn hat, but I can get one at the Faire.” Kelly said. “They have a lot of shops at the Faire, apparently, so I might pick up some additional costume pieces as we go. But I might go without the green orc body paint we discussed. It's... involved.”
“Well, my outfit is probably the least sexy.” Kat sighed. “It’s just an Elizabethan costume dress, with a hoop skirt and everything. It’s pretty! But it covers everything. I was going to add vampire teeth to go as a vampire.”
“Trade the skirt for your bloomers, and now we’re talking.” Rani said.
“That could work.” Selene said, nodding.
“We’ll see.” Kat said, shrugging. “What time are we leaving?”
Kelly activated her phone and turned to the website she had on one of her tabs. “Well, the gates open at nine-thirty, but they have a pre-show at nine-ten. Everyone on the website says to arrive early. If we leave at six, we should be set.”
“Six AM?” Kat asked. “As in, in the morning?”
“It’s just a little over two hours away, so we should meet here at five-thirty if we’re going to carpool.” Kelly explained.
“If we leave at six, that gets us there an hour early, even for the pre-gate show.” Rani said.
“That’s assuming no traffic. We’ll hit traffic, especially as we get closer to the Faire, we’ll stop for coffee, and we’ll have costume stuff to fix and put on, right? So we’ll need the extra time.” Kelly said, making a clear argument for leaving early that made the others realize she’d thought about this.
“And if we have extra time, that’s more time for fooling around with Master in the parking lot.” Selene suggested. “It’s win-win.”
Kat rolled her eyes. “Leave it to Slut to find that silver lining to an early morning wake-up.”
“We can stop for coffee.” Kelly assured everyone. “And if we make good time, we’ll be there for the pre-gate show. If we don’t, we still won’t be the last ones there.”
“When will we be home?” Kat asked. “I’m assuming it’ll be a late night?”
“Well, the jousting tournament and Faire end at five-thirty.” Kelly said. “But, there’s an after-dark, adults only, segment that starts at five-thirty, so we might return well after midnight.”
“Are we staying for that?” Kat asked.
“I’d like to.” Selene said. “They have a wet chemise contest and a kilt contest for the men. I wasn’t able to go before, but it sounds fun!”
“I’m in.” Rani said, raising her hand and snapping like she was dancing. “Who doesn’t love to party with hot, wet women and hot guys in kilts?”
Mindy shrugged. “Will I be allowed in?”
“Girl, I got you.” Rani said. “We’ll get you a fake ID. I know a guy.”
“Is that… are we okay with that?” Kat asked, pointing at Rani. “That’s illegal.”
“I won’t drink if that’s an issue.” Mindy said, promising. “But I want to have fun with you guys, not wait in the car.”
“Speaking of cars, who’s driving?” Katelyn asked. “I doubt there’s a car that can fit all of us.”
“I wish there was.” Kelly said. “But I don’t mind driving. I figured my SUV is probably the most comfortable, and then Master can take the others.”
“Master shouldn’t drive.” Selene said. “He should be in the backseat with us.”
“Not fair.” Kelly pouted. “If anything, you should drive, and he should be in the backseat with me.” She meant it playfully, but she could only imagine how horny she’d be by the time they reached the Faire if she had to watch him fuck everyone but her over a two-hour drive. Not that she wanted to fuck, but there were other ways to reach a big O.
“Of course, Mistress.” Selene said, taking her word for an order.
“We could always rent a car.” Rani said, shrugging. “Or, with how many of us there are, a bus?”
“Could we get a bus?” Selene asked. “That sounds really expensive.”
“It’s not that bad.” Rani said. “They charge by the hour, though, which adds up.”
“We’d have to be twenty-five to rent a car.” Kelly said.
“Really?” Mindy asked.
Kelly nodded. “It’s an insurance thing, I guess, but yeah. You have to be twenty-five. Even additional drivers have to be twenty-five, so we can’t beg Deb to rent it in her name and let us drive it. She’d have to drive it.”
“That won’t work, then.” Mindy said, pouting. “I love Deb, but we don’t need a chaperone.”
“Let me see what I can do. I’ve been looking at buying a car recently, and my dad promised to help when I did. Maybe I can convince him a passenger van is the way to go.” Rani said, shrugging.
“Or a Greyhound bus.” Mindy said, squeezing Rani closer as she giggled at her teasing.
“How many of us are going, exactly?” Kelly asked, looking at Selene. “Have you heard back from Brad about the theater club joining us?”
“Wait, what?” Rani asked. “I thought it was just us.”
“I’m sorry.” Selene said, bowing toward Rani. “I got excited this morning and invited Brad and the theater club along while we were at the gym. He was complaining about not getting to hang out with Master because we’re taking up all his time, so I… I opened my big fat mouth.”
“Which is fine.” Kelly said, intervening. “It’s good for Arthur to have friends who aren’t trying to fuck him. There will be other people there anyway. It’s a public space. The more the merrier, right?”
“That’s usually true.” Rani said. “Who else is coming? I wasn’t planning on seeing anyone from school there.”
“It’s not confirmed yet, but Brad, Jen, Mark, Maria, Caleb, and Logan are invited.” Selene answered. “But they don’t have to carpool with us.”
“Not unless they want to watch you suck Master’s cock in the back seat.” Kat rolled her eyes.
Selene blushed slightly but accepted the idea. “I wouldn’t mind if they did.”
“So not Yvonne, then?” Rani asked after tallying the names.
“She quit the theater club.” Selene said as if that should explain her lack of invitation more than her antagonism.
“I know.” Rani said. “I just thought it might be an olive branch, or what if she reaches out and tries to repair things before then?”
“She won’t.” Selene said, sitting back and crossing her legs. “She’s a total bitch.”
“Okay.” Rani raised her hands in surrender.
A knock at the door made them jump, and Mindy sprang up from the sofa to check the peephole.
“If that’s Yvonne, I’m quitting school to become a witch.” Rani said, turning her head to watch Mindy’s tight butt in her pencil skirt stride past her.
“Dinner’s here!” Mindy called out.
Selene, the only one naked, hid behind the door. Mindy opened it, and Rani, Kat, and Kelly helped bucket-line the food to the coffee table. The delivery guy, for his part, was far too friendly. Perhaps it was Mindy’s ‘Whore’ collar catching the hallway light.
“So, what is this, like a book club or something?” He asked Mindy as he handed over the last of the food. His eyes fell on the wooden dildo on the coffee table. “Or are you lovely ladies having a sex toy party?” He asked. “Are you old enough for that?” He asked Mindy, trying to flirt. She was, despite her sexy business casual outfit, the youngest of the group.
“We’re a harem.” Mindy answered, smiling sweetly as if it were the most normal thing in the world.
“What?” The guy asked, surprised and assuming he’d misheard.
“We’re a harem. Our boyfriend is in class right now, so we’re just waiting for him to come home so we can fuck.” Mindy said, giggling. “Have a good night!” She closed the door before the delivery guy could respond.
Rani laughed. “That was cruel. Now the poor guy has to walk down three flights of stairs with a boner.”
Mindy giggled. Dinner disrupted the meeting as containers passed from hand to hand, and most people ate on their laps. Those who needed plates took them from the cabinets, and Selene fetched everyone water from the fridge and glasses for the soda Rani ordered. Mountain Dew wouldn’t have been Kelly’s first choice, but she avoided soda as a regular rule.
They chatted as they ate, catching each other up on their weeks, with Rani and Mindy dominating the storytelling. By the time they’d finished, everyone was caught up on the drama of Lynn outing Mindy to her parents, Deb coming to her rescue, and the photoshoot. The details and how Mindy told the story made Kelly nervous as it progressed, even though she knew the outcome from their earlier chat.
Mindy’s mom was bi, too. She understood her daughter’s sexuality, and although she didn’t approve of promiscuity, she still accepted and loved her daughter. Kelly wondered what that was like and found herself distracted as Mindy told the story of her parents and Arthur’s parents having dinner.
“Arthur’s mom is goals.” Rani said, eating her last french fry. “And she keeps it tight.”
Mindy giggled.
“But there’s a chance your parents won’t let you move in?” Kat asked, concerned.
“I’m moving in.” Mindy said. Her determination sounded strong. “It’s up to them whether they disown me over it.”
“Strong stance.” Rani said, hugging Mindy to her. “Love it.”
“But if they disown you, can you afford the rent?” Kat asked.
“It’d be tight.” Mindy admitted. “But I have my office job, and I’d have a semester before my meal plan runs out.” She said, shrugging. “I’ll figure it out.”
“Okay.” Kat said, surrendering before she entered the bathroom and closed the door.
“Should we get a hotel for the Ren Faire?” Selene asked, drawing the conversation back to the meeting now that the food was gone. “We can’t let Master pay for it alone this time, and if he suggests it while we’re there, he’ll end up covering the cost again. You know how he is.”
Kelly nodded. “That’s a fair point.” She pulled up her phone. “Looks like there are some hotels nearby, but we’d have to get multiple rooms. There’s a campground, though. We could take tents and go camping!”
“I’m not going anywhere without running water!” Kat called through the door from the bathroom, flushing as if to demonstrate her point.
“Camping would be cheaper than a hotel, though, right?” Mindy asked.
“Definitely.” Katelyn said. “And potentially more privacy, depending on how far away from other people we camp.”
“We’re all sleeping in the same room anyway.” Rani said, shrugging. “But yeah, seven-person occupancy is pushing it for most hotels, but camping isn’t my style either. What if we Air B&B a house? We could spend the whole weekend out there, depending on everyone’s fall break plans.”
Kelly and Katelyn glanced at each other. “Well, we were going to her family’s cabin.” Kelly said, gesturing to Katelyn.
“We’d invite all of you, but it’s not that big a cabin. It’d be pretty cramped.” Katelyn said.
“Master is planning on moving the rest of his apartment into the house over fall break, anyway.” Selene said. “And Kat and I are packing up our stuff too.”
Kat returned from the bathroom after washing her hands. “What are we doing?”
“Packing our stuff to move over fall break?” Selene asked.
“Nope.” Kat shook her head. “Master has to do that, remember? He lost the bet.”
“But–” Selene’s protest ended as Kat tugged her braid as she walked behind her to her seat. “Ow!”
“You love it.” Kat said, sitting down. “He lost the bet. He packs and moves our stuff. And you’re not letting him get out of it by playing the slave card and doing all the manual labor for him. That was the deal.”
Selene rolled her eyes. “Fine.”
“Well, I just had homework on my schedule.” Rani said.
“Same.” Mindy nodded. “So we can help Master pack your things.”
Rani looked at Mindy. “Not what I was going to suggest.” She chuckled.
“Aw, come on, it’ll be fun!” Mindy said, patting Rani’s thigh. “Besides, then we get to go through their stuff.”
Rani glanced at Kat. “Ooo, okay, now I’m interested.”
“No.” Kat said in warning. “No, you’re not going through my stuff.”
“Oh, I’m going through your stuff.” Rani said. “I’m gonna find your most embarrassing secrets and whisper them to Master so he can punish you for them like the brat you are. I bet you have a diary, right? I’ll find it.”
Kat didn’t say anything to that. She folded her arms in front of her and huffed, crossing her legs.
“Okay, order.” Kelly said, clacking her wooden dildo gavel against the coffee table as she looked up from her phone. “Hotel for Ren Faire, Saturday night, two connected rooms, so four queen-sized beds total, breaks down to about fifty bucks a person. We’d have to share beds, obviously.”
“Who gets Master’s bed?” Selene asked.
“She does.” Rani said, pointing at Kelly. “She’s Mistress.”
“I was going to say we should draw straws or something.” Kelly said.
“Or we could play for it?” Katelyn suggested. “I wouldn’t mind sleeping in his arms for a night.”
“What would we play?” Kat asked, curious.
“They have games at the Faire!” Selene said. “Axe throwing, archery, and all kinds of things. We could make a whole tournament out of it.”
“A tournament at the Ren Faire sounds really on theme.” Rani said. “I’m down.”
“I’m in!” Mindy said, pointing and sweeping her arm across everyone. “You’re going down!”
“I’ll go down on you if you want.” Selene winked at her and she and Mindy giggled.
“I’m at something of a handicap, there.” Katelyn said, gesturing to her arm in its sling. “But… I might be able to beat someone at axe throwing or knife throwing.”
“You can choose your games.” Kelly said, asserting some authority in the matter. “For the rest of us, it should be random.”
“Okay.” Everyone more or less agreed, and Mindy jotted it down in her notes.
“Should we book the hotel for Friday night, too?” Katelyn asked.
“Oh, so, Friday night.” Selene said. “You weren’t in the chat, but we’re letting Master have a guys’ night with Mark and Brad, his friends.” Selene said. “And I had a question for the rest of you. Would it be okay if I convinced Maria and Jen to join me in giving them a surprise? We’d dress up or down and play waitress/servers for the guys.”
“Oh.” Katelyn said. “Okay. That sounds pretty hot.”
“That does sound pretty hot.” Kelly agreed. “Do you want all of us?”
“Well, with Brad and Mark there, I thought it might be more comfortable for them if it was just me. They’ve seen me in my sports bras and stuff before, backstage.” Selene said.
“Oh, that’s a good point.” Kelly said, tapping her finger against her chin. “I don’t think I’m comfortable getting naked in front of anyone but you guys and Master.”
“Same.” Kat said, pointing at Kelly.
“I’d be comfortable, but I really need the night for homework.” Rani said, frowning.
“Would you be okay if this counted as your one-on-one date night with Master if it’s just you, him, and your friends?” Kelly asked.
Selene nodded. “Absolutely.”
“Okay.” Kelly agreed. “Show of hands, all in favor?”
Mindy hesitated, but everyone else raised their hands so she did too.
Selene smiled. “Thanks! I can’t wait.”
“You’re really okay with Maria, Mark, Brad, and Jen seeing you in full slave mode?” Kat asked, glancing at her sister.
“What if things get steamy or if Arthur orders you to suck him off while they play video games?” Mindy asked.
“I’m kind of hoping for it.” Selene said. “That’d be hot as fuck, showing them that side of me, teasing them. Maybe Maria and Jen would help take care of them. Besides, they know about our lifestyle and support us.”
“Are you recruiting them?” Rani asked.
“No, not at all. I'm not interested in Mark or Brad, and I don’t think either would be okay with Arthur doing anything with Maria or Jen.” Selene explained.
“What if Arthur offers you to one of them?” Katelyn asked. “Is that a thing?”
“He wouldn’t.” Selene said. “That was on my checklist. He knows my limits. He’s the only one I’ll submit to.” She glanced at Kelly. “Well, the only man. And safe words still apply.”
The girls nodded.
“And is Arthur okay with this?” Kat asked.
“I want it to be a surprise!” Selene said. “Imagine the look on their faces when the three of us girls step out in collars, cuffs, and lingerie to serve them dinner, beer, or whatever?”
“Okay, well, have fun with that.” Kelly said, moving on to the next item on the agenda. She loved the idea of doing that for Arthur but wasn’t comfortable doing that in front of other people. Selene was braver with her submission than Kelly. Kelly and Brad knew each other from the gym. They respected each other. She wouldn’t have been able to face him without embarrassment if he’d seen her last weekend, dressed like a domme, spanking the others, and serving Arthur at his every sexual whim. Or dressed as a maid, lifting her skirt for Arthur to eat her out while she rode the dryer downstairs. That side of her was only for Arthur and the girls. The people she loved and trusted.
Though, she supposed it was kind of like the arousing reminders that flashed through her when she saw the girls. Occasionally, there’d be a glance, sigh, or a movement that reminded her of last weekend and their sexual escapades. Her cheeks would blush, and her system would warm up, anticipating foreplay or something greater. Maybe that was what Selene was after. It would undoubtedly make the theater club meetings more interesting.
“No Caleb at this guys’ night?” Rani asked.
“He has his band.” Selene said. “They always have gigs on Fridays, sometimes Saturdays. So he and Logan might not be able to make it to the Faire either.”
“Gotcha.” Rani nodded.
“Next item on the agenda…” Kelly said, glancing at her phone. “Getting ready for Arthur’s arrival. Selene, do you still want to try and braid everyone’s hair?”
“Well, I can’t do everyone’s.” Selene said.
“Mindy and I can do each other.” Rani said, intending the innuendo that made Mindy giggle.
“My hair’s too short.” Kat said.
“And I can braid you and Babygirl.” Selene said, moving behind Kelly as she spoke to get started. Kelly passed her a hairbrush from her purse and sat straight but away from the back of the chair to let Selene brush out her hair.
“Is that my harem name?” Katelyn asked. “Because I used it last weekend?”
“If you want it to be.” Kat said. “If you want it to be something else, I’m sure Master will oblige.”
“I don’t know.” Katelyn said. “I enjoyed calling him DD, don’t get me wrong.” She said. “But I enjoyed pretending to be his Pet, too. Would Pet be a good nickname? Or maybe Princess? That would cover both. But what if I want to try a bunch of different things or names? Would that be okay?”
“Sure.” Rani said, brushing Mindy’s hair. “It’s up to you and what you enjoy being called.”
“I don’t enjoy being called a brat.” Kat said, interjecting by raising her hand.
“You love it when Master calls you a brat and tells you to be a good girl.” Selene argued.
Kat squirmed in her chair. “Okay… maybe.”
The girls laughed and continued braiding each other’s hair, so they mostly wore matching hairstyles for their matching costumes later.
~~~
Arthur stepped out of his evening class after the professor dismissed everyone. The flood of twenty students created a current toward the parking lot that dispersed after the exit as they drifted to their individual cars. Arthur slowed his approach as he reached the edge of the parking lot. Someone was standing there, leaning against his car.
Arthur glanced behind him, but the others here were already drifting apart. He checked his phone, but he had no new messages. The girls were having their weekly harem meeting and waiting for him to return. Still, it was a feminine figure in the poorly lit spot. Her face was in shadow, and her baggy clothes obscured much of her figure.
His heart pounded in his chest. Lynn had gone to the bookstore earlier. Had she hung around to bother him? The figure seemed similar, but Lynn didn’t often wear baggy clothes. She showed her body off with every chance she got. Should he go to his car? Was there someone he could call? He might have gone to Mindy or Rani’s dorm if they hadn't been at his apartment.
He hesitated and peered through the shadows to see who it was. The figure noticed him and stood upright, lifting their butt off his car door and looking up to see him.
“Yvonne?” Arthur asked, surprised. He recognized the Beauty and the Beast hoodie before he saw her face. The white silhouette of Beast’s head and claw holding a red rose was clearly displayed over her breasts and stomach with her hands in the hoodie pockets.
Yvonne smiled weakly at him, withdrew her hands from her hoodie pocket, and waved awkwardly before gripping her hand like she was trying to wring courage out of her fingers. “Hey, Arthur. Can we talk?”
“Uh…” Arthur glanced behind him again. The people from class were dispersing through the parking lot. “I’m sorry. I have people waiting for me.”
“Oh.” Yvonne shrank. “Right. Of course.”
“Tomorrow.” Arthur said, trying to think of somewhere they could talk that wouldn’t be them alone. “How about lunch in the cafe?” He asked. “We’ll get a table and chat. I wanted to talk to you about your leaving the Theater Club.”
“You did?” Yvonne asked, worry in her voice. “With everything else I did, that's what you're worried about?”
“Yeah.” Arthur said, still standing at least three paces away from her and the car. “I still can’t believe you quit. I was going to try and convince you to come back.”
“You want me to come back?” Yvonne asked, surprised. More surprising was the vibrato of emotion in her voice, thickening her words as she spoke them.
“I know how much the club means to you and how hard you work.” Arthur said. “I was shocked when Selene told me you quit.”
Shocked was an understatement, and for more than her quitting. Her trying to force him out of the club had also surprised him. He didn’t know where this enmity came from since Selene explained that what she’d seen was consensual. If Yvonne thought he shoved Selene in his trunk non-consensually, it made sense she’d be upset, but even then, shouldn’t she have called the police and not just spread rumors about him being a sexual deviant? He had so many questions.
“Yeah… well… they didn’t give me much choice.” Yvonne said, her tone turning bitter.
“We’ll talk about it tomorrow.” Arthur said, not wanting to get into an argument about it now while they were standing alone in the middle of the parking lot. Something about Yvonne made him not want to be alone with her.
“Are you sure you wouldn’t prefer to just throw me in the trunk and have your way with me?” Yvonne asked. “Make me one of your sluts and order me to get back to work at the Theater club?”
Arthur took a step back, increasing the distance between them.
Yvonne sniffled, wiping her nose as she began to cry. “I’m sorry. I meant that as a joke. I didn’t mean to like… disgust you with the idea.” The girl before him crumpled into herself, holding her sleeves over her face as she stood and wept.
Arthur swallowed. His instinct was to comfort her, but Yvonne was mixed up. She’d spread rumors about him, damaged his reputation, bullied him just like… ah. That was why he didn’t like Yvonne or want to be alone with her. She reminded him too much of Lynn. But unlike Lynn, Yvonne and he still had some friendship. Or at least, they had, until Arthur started dating Selene and the others, and Yvonne flipped on him.
Was she jealous? No, that couldn’t be right. Arthur couldn’t presume any romantic interest. They’d played opposite each other in shows before and kissed on stage, but he knew better than to confuse the characters with the actors. Any chemistry between them or romantic spark had been on stage. He knew better than to presume. Still, his reaction must have come across as harsh. No one preferred to think of themselves as disgusting.
“You don’t disgust me.” Arthur said. “But I don’t want you to accuse me of anything like you have been. I think it’s best if we keep our interactions in public places. And I am really uncomfortable right now and just want to get home.”
“I make you uncomfortable?” Yvonne asked.
“Yes.” Arthur answered honestly.
“You should be the one making me uncomfortable.” Yvonne said, wiping her face with her sleeve. “You’re a guy. A hot, strong, muscular guy. You could take me if you really wanted me. Like how you took that slutbag Selene. Like, right now, you could force yourself on me, do whatever you wanted, if you wanted me.”
“If you think I’m someone who would do that, you don’t know me at all.” Arthur said. “That’s not what any of my relationships are about.”
“I saw you.” Yvonne protested. “I saw you let passion take over. You manhandled Selene and put her in your trunk.”
“Because that’s what she wanted.” Arthur said. “I prefer having control during sex. That much is true. I won’t apologize for preferring to be dominant with my partners. It’s… it’s honestly the only way I feel safe enough to have sex, and always with a safeword in place, so there are no misunderstandings, accusations, or problems. But I’ve never forced that dynamic, or myself, on anyone. I never will.”
Confusion colored Yvonne’s coffee-brown eyes as she studied his face. “God, you’re too fuckin’ perfect, and you don’t even know it.” Yvonne mumbled to herself so that Arthur just barely caught what she’d said.
“What?” Arthur asked, not believing his ears.
“Just… lunch. Tomorrow. Okay. In a public place, but just you and me, right? No Selene? No Rani?” Yvonne asked.
“Sure.” Arthur agreed.
She stepped away from his car. “I’ll see you then. Go have fun with your… whoever is waiting for you. And... in the meantime... just know I'm sorry. For... everything.”
Arthur watched her walk away. “Hey, Yvonne?” He called out. She stopped and turned to look behind her. “Be safe. Okay?”
She gave him a thumbs-up and left the parking lot behind her as she returned to the dorm.
Arthur climbed into his car and let loose a ragged exhale of exhausted energy with his hands on the wheel. His pulse was racing through the suburban streets toward his apartment. He had to do something to distract himself and put him in a better mood before he saw the girls.
He listened to the Broadway soundtrack of Beauty and the Beast on his drive back to his apartment. Beast would have been his preference for roles, but he had to admit he enjoyed singing along with Gaston’s numbers. Villains always had the better songs. Plus, the mob song at the end was a favorite. He hadn’t made it anywhere near that by the time he pulled into his apartment complex.
He parked next to Kelly’s SUV and decided to text before heading up.
Master: I’m here! On my way up!
Slut: We’re ready for you!
Arthur stopped to get his mail and shoved the bills into his backpack. He stopped when he noticed someone watching him. A college-aged girl had ascended to the landing from one of the sub-level apartments. She stared at him like she’d seen a ghost and kept staring.
“Uh… can I help you?” Arthur asked.
She shook her head, still staring at him.
She looked familiar, but Arthur had difficulty placing her face. He didn’t recognize her from campus. Her long, auburn hair covered half her face. Her sweater and jeans combo gave him no information about her figure other than her average bust. Still, he was confident he’d seen her before. Then it clicked. “Oh, you’re the girl from the laundry room, right?” He asked. “Sorry about that, my girlfriend and I–”
“No, I’m sorry for walking in on you like that.” She said quickly. “I uh… I was just surprised.”
“Well, don’t worry, we learned our lesson. We won’t be doing that again.” Arthur said.
“Oh? Did you not like going down on her?” She asked.
Arthur laughed, which made the girl blush. “No, I meant in the laundry room.” He said, still laughing.
She laughed back, laughing at herself. “Right. Right. Makes sense. Sorry.”
“No worries.” Arthur said, nodding. “Have a good night.”
“You too!” She called as Arthur started his trek to ascend the stairs.
He assumed he would, but he also knew he had a difficult conversation ahead. Could he push that conversation to tomorrow? No. He owed them the truth. Also, Rani probably wouldn’t let him get away with pushing it off again. She could be pretty bossy for someone who called him her king and pretended to be his concubine.
Arthur stopped at the landing, making some noise as he put his key into the lock and unlocked his door. The door swung open to reveal an empty apartment. The only thing out of place was his office chair facing the front door smack dab in the middle of the rectangular room. He closed the door behind him and set his backpack on the floor against the sofa.
“Master?” Selene called from the second bedroom.
“Yeah?” Arthur called.
“Have a seat in your chair.” Selene said through the door.
Arthur sat in his chair and turned it toward the bedroom door. He took a moment, straightening his spine and transforming into his Dom mode. “Okay!” He called.
Kelly stepped out first, and Arthur’s breath caught in his chest. She wore a replica of Princess Leia’s slave bikini, minus the golden collar and chain, but with black leather bondage cuffs on her wrists and ankles. She wore her personal collar instead, with its three-strand pearl choker. Her hair was twisted up into the high single braid from the movie, and her red hair looked terrific in it, even if it wasn’t long enough to reach far past her shoulders.
The golden bra wrapped around velvet cups small enough that her freckled breasts spilled over the edges. Arthur licked his lips as she walked forward. The long violet two-panel skirt was narrow in front and back, designed to tease as it slid between her bared thighs. The matching booty shorts beneath the gold bikini plates didn’t detract from the sex appeal. It gave the panel skirt the appearance of wrapping around her before falling to her ankle cuffs, which topped her bare feet. She walked silkily toward him, pulling on a thin golden chain that stretched behind her from her wrist cuff.
The thin golden chain connected to a familiar golden collar, and Rani stepped from the bedroom wearing the same costume. It fit her differently and showed a lot more skin around her hips and behind because she didn’t wear the shorts. Her hips spilled out of the bikini, and the rear panel only covered half her ass where the cheeks met. The lines of her hips curved between the open ovals on the side of her bikini bottoms and made Arthur stiffen in his slacks. The top had a gap between its hard plastic mold and the top of her athletic c-cup breasts, but that only meant for more of a show.
Her dark brown complexion didn’t contrast as sharply as Kelly’s pale freckled skin, but the gold looked brilliant on her. Her thick midnight black hair held the braid well, and her honey-brown eyes dipped to Arthur’s crotch as she walked forward, swaying her ample hips with every step. She, too, wore the wrist and ankle cuffs, which connected to a thin gold chain that tied to Mindy’s costume collar above her ‘whore’ collar.
Mindy wore the same costume, her stomach flat and her breasts far too big for the bikini top. She must have been uncomfortable. Her panel skirt came to the top of her ankle cuffs, and she also had ditched the shorts. She smiled as she trotted forward, intentionally bouncing her breasts for Arthur’s benefit. She clung to Rani’s backside when she caught up, placing one hand on her shoulder and the other on Rani’s stomach, between her pierced navel and the top.
Kelly stood before Arthur, sinking to her knees in front of him. Rani knelt on his right. Mindy separated from her and knelt on his left. Selene and Kat followed behind them, each wearing the same costume without the shorts. Both looked stunning.
Selene, connected to Mindy’s wrist cuff, danced forward as though she were performing a belly dance. She rolled her semi-muscular stomach and hips with every step, her hands writhing above her head as if in the throws of passion. Arthur wasn’t sure he could get more erect. She knelt in Nadu beside Mindy and dropped her eyes to the floor.
Kat made a less impressive entrance. Still, her soft curves and brief smile when she met Arthur’s eyes made his eyes linger on her. She knelt in Nadu on the other side of her sister, glaring at Selene. “Show off.” She muttered under her breath. Rani nudged Kat beside her, and she fell silent. Rani and Mindy took up the Nadu pose as well.
“And we have one more, Master.” Kelly said, leaning onto the arm of his chair and whispering in his ear. “Shall I fetch the new girl who wishes to join your harem?”
Arthur cleared his throat, straightening in his chair and adjusting to his surprise. His wide blue eyes searched out the girls before him, admiring the view from above. Kat’s crescent hips looked delicious in her bikini, and the panel of fabric had fallen aside, showing her pussy, while the rest had dropped between their legs in the Nadu pose.
New girl? He wondered for a moment. Oh, Katelyn. He almost laughed at having forgotten. To be fair, he defied anyone to think of anything when presented with a harem of slave princesses kneeling in submission.
“Yes.” Arthur said. “Present her to me.”
Kelly kissed his cheek and stood straight. She disconnected from Rani’s leash and put it in Arthur’s hand. Then she walked over the crisscrossing chain leashes to the bedroom. Her high peach-shaped ass looked amazing as the thin velvet poured over it. She disappeared into the room and emerged with another leash in hand. This gold chain attached to a gold, velcroed costume collar, and Katelyn’s long-legged figure emerged from behind her. She wasn’t wearing her sling, which didn’t seem to bother her so long as she kept her arm by her side. She looked down at the floor, embarrassed, and tried to fix the panel as it attempted to disappear between her legs. It gave her a camel toe, suggesting she, like the others except Kelly, wasn’t wearing anything under the costume.
Her top left a lot of space between her two small, puffy breasts and the molded cups. The long panels didn’t reach as far on her legs as the others, ending in the bottom third of her long calves. She glanced at Arthur and knelt with her legs closed at the head of the aisle the girls formed, directly opposite him. Kelly stood behind her and lifted Katelyn’s eyes to Arthur by moving her head with her braid.
“You wish to join Master’s harem?” Kelly asked, looking down at Katelyn.
“Yes.” Katelyn said after clearing her throat.
Kelly shook Katelyn’s braid. “You will refer to me as Mistress.”
“Yes, Mistress.” Katelyn corrected herself.
“You will obey him in whatever he orders you to do?” Kelly asked.
“Yes, Mistress.” Katelyn said.
“You want to become his slave, his girlfriend, and his plaything in equal measure to the rest of us?” Kelly asked.
“Yes, Mistress.” Katelyn said.
“Tell him.” Kelly said and released her braid.
Arthur wondered if they’d rehearsed this after their meeting, but whatever planning they’d done, he fully appreciated it. All they had to do was look at his lap to see how much, and that was where Katelyn’s eyes were fixed.
“I want to be your slave, Master.” Katelyn said. “Your pet.” She said. “I enjoyed playing with you, getting to know you, and I want to be your girlfriend, like the others. I know that you are safe and will look out for me. I know that you will care for me as your Pet. I will please you in return, and you can play with me whenever you want, DD.”
“And each of you have agreed to welcome a new sister into your harem?” Arthur asked, looking at Kelly but asking all of them.
“Yes, my King.” Rani said.
“Yes, Boss.” Mindy chimed in.
“Yes, Sir.” Kat said though she glanced at Katelyn when she said it instead of Arthur.
“Yes, Master.” Selene said.
“Yes, Dear.” Kelly said. “We’ve agreed to welcome her into our family.”
Arthur smiled at Kelly. As hot as this was, she was right to call it to a family. They were each other’s found family, and the reminder of that helped erase the anxiety he’d carried with him through the door. He didn’t need to be nervous about opening up to them. He didn’t need to worry that he would burden them, kill the mood, or that they’d look at him differently if they knew his traumas. They’d want him to share as much as he’d want them to share with him. He had to love and trust them, just as they loved and trusted him. He nearly teared up at the thought but swallowed his emotion and resumed his role, his character, for this little presentation scene.
Arthur lowered his eyes from Kelly to Katelyn, enjoying the view of Kelly’s body as he did so. Her bikini framed her abs, breasts, and hips so perfectly that she was his new mental image for this costume, despite how hot the original actress had been.
“Have you chosen a name?” Arthur asked Katelyn. “Do you want me to find you a collar that says Babygirl?”
“If it pleases you, Master, I think, for now, I’d like you to call me Pet and make me wear the collar from last weekend. The bow was pretty.” Katelyn answered.
Arthur remembered the collar. Its pink bow and silver bell were a Mindy and Rani purchase from the pet store rather than a BDSM shop. “Is that okay with you, Rani and Mindy? I have the collar with the rest of the gear in my room, but I didn’t buy it.” He explained.
“It was a gift, Master. It’s yours to give.” Rani said. “As are the leashes.”
Mindy nodded. “Yes, Boss. It’s a cute collar for a cute Pet.”
Arthur nodded. “Thank you, Concubine and Whore.” He nodded to each. He stood, and Kelly held out her hand to stop him. He didn’t move. She came around to him and took Rani’s leash from him. He nodded to her and went into his bedroom. It didn’t take him long to emerge with the collar, but he didn’t retake place at the head of the column. Instead, he stood behind Katelyn.
“Lift your braid with your right hand only.” Arthur instructed, knowing her left was the one she’d injured.
Katelyn lifted her slave Leia braid out of the way and tilted her head to give him easier access. He wrapped the collar around her throat, tested its fit, and clicked it closed. “I hereby declare you, my Pet.” Arthur said. He took her right hand and her leash from Kelly. He helped her stand, and he embraced her, then kissed her as she put her hands against his chest.
She kissed him back, her eyes watering as he broke the kiss.
“Yellow light. Are you okay?” He asked.
“Yeah, that was just… more emotional than I thought it would be. The formality was weird but kinda nice.” She said, trying to explain it. “It’s like a blanket. I feel very secure.”
“Good.” Arthur said. “We’ll review your list before we get too involved, but for tonight, just follow everyone’s lead and have a good time, okay?”
“Okay.” Katelyn said.
Kelly smacked her on the ass hard. Katelyn jumped, and Arthur closed his arms around her, holding her. One foot hovered just off the ground. The other popped up, trying to protect her backside automatically but falling short.
“Sorry!” Katelyn said. “I meant: Yes, DD!”
Arthur chuckled and set her down. “Now kneel and take the Nadu position with the others.”
“Yes, Sir.” Katelyn said, dropping to her knees and looking down at the floor.
“Undress me.” Arthur said to Kelly.
“Yes, Sir.” Kelly said, but moved away first. She tied Rani’s leash to the arm of Arthur’s chair. Then she took Katelyn’s leash from him and gave it to Selene. Arthur opened his arms, and Kelly stepped behind him, removing his suit jacket. She hung it on a hanger and returned it to the bedroom. Then she unbuttoned his shirt, standing before him with one leg bent, sliding out from behind the fabric panel to show off her inner thigh. Arthur appreciated the view of her abs and restrained breasts as she took off his shirt and then dropped his pants. He sighed in relief as he stepped out of them and returned to his chair. Kelly put his clothes in the hamper, his phone in the charger, and his pocket contents on his dresser.
When she returned, she stood behind Katelyn, her legs spread slightly.
“Why are you the only one with shorts under the costume?” Arthur asked, distracted by them. “Are you not comfortable without them?”
“It’s my period, Master.” Kelly said, blushing slightly as she looked down.
Arthur didn’t react, but he nodded, accepting her answer. “Whatever makes you comfortable.” He said.
“Thank you, Sir.” Kelly said, smiling.
“Now, before we get to playing…” Arthur said, licking his lips at the sight of them. “There’s uh… something I wanted to bring up to the group.”
All eyes lifted to him, looking at him expectantly. Their eyes looking up at him from kneeling on the floor was too much. “Okay…” He said.
“If it pleases you, Master.” Selene said, speaking up, which caused Rani to frown. “We have another item of business that requires your participation.”
“What is it, Slut?” Arthur asked, relieved for the interruption.
“I earned a punishment from Mistress on Sunday.” Selene said. “For going against your word, or almost going against your word, and planning to break into Lynn’s apartment at the house. I didn’t do it.” She said quickly at Arthur’s alarm. “But only because Mistress stopped me. I offered for her to spank me, but she believed that was your job or to be done under your supervision.”
Arthur looked at Kelly for confirmation, and she nodded. Arthur sighed. “What punishment would you recommend, Darling?”
Kelly swallowed. “Whatever pleases you, Sir. She promised you she would leave Lynn alone and was planning to break her promise and would have, I think, if I hadn’t stopped her.”
“Did anything happen when she showed up at the Bookstore?” Arthur asked.
“Not really. I can fill you in on that later.” Selene said. “This is for what happened Sunday when I nearly disobeyed Mistress a second time.”
“I was there too, Master.” Katelyn said, speaking up. “I feel partially responsible.”
“Are you volunteering for punishment?” Arthur asked, looking at Katelyn. She hadn’t enjoyed the spanking aspects, so it surprised him that she was volunteering herself for one. Did she feel that guilty?
“No?” Katelyn asked. “I mean… I don’t want punishment, but I’d feel guilty if I didn’t say anything.”
“Okay.” Arthur said, understanding that. “Pet, your punishment will be corner time.”
“Corner time?” Katelyn asked, confused.
“You’re going to stand in the corner, facing it, unable to watch while we punish Slut.” Arthur said.
“Oh.” Katelyn said. “That doesn’t sound too bad.”
“You mean, thank you for your mercy, Master.” Kelly said, prodding Katelyn with her foot.
“Right!” Katelyn said, nodding. “Yes, thank you for your mercy, Master.”
Arthur smiled at Kelly. “Kelly, lead Katelyn to the corner, and put her on the one-bar prison. She can leave the corner after I say so.”
Kelly nodded, and Katelyn looked back and forth between them for confirmation.
“Oh, and Pet? You do not have permission to cum.” Arthur said. “If you cum without permission, I will spank you with a paddle in front of everyone until your ass matches Brat’s.”
Katelyn gulped. He assumed she’d seen Kat’s bruised behind while they’d gotten changed. He wondered how she might explain it to anyone who saw her in the locker rooms, though that was probably only her volleyball team.
“Slut, your punishment will be performed by your Mistress for my amusement.” Arthur said.
“Yes, Master.” Selene said, prostrating herself on the floor toward him.
