Chapter 46
Ken noticed that all of the women were dressed -- something that rarely
happened now-a-days. Looking at the clock, he wondered where Genie and Bill
were, then thought he remembered something about them going out for dinner or
something. He'd introduce them to Tina tomorrow.
"Well," he said, "it looks like there's the possibility of a new
addition to Nemetodunum."
"Possibility?" asked Sally.
"I don't know if she'll want to stay here," replied Ken. "And, I don't
know how you all feel about this."
The rest of the Circle looked at each other, then at Jane, who sighed.
Clearly, she'd been chosen as spokeswoman, and just as clearly, something had
been going on that Ken wasn't privy to.
"Alright," he said, "give it up. What's going on?"
To his surprise, Jane knelt. Rather than a sexually submissive pose,
this one was just submissive.
"Master," she began, "whether she stays or goes is your decision. You
are the High Priest, and you are the head of the household."
Ken blinked. Yup, things had been going on that he wasn't aware of.
"Jane," he said in a sharp tone of voice, "get up." She leaned back,
looking very confused. "You are my slave and when you kneel to me, it better be
only in that capacity. Do not ever kneel to me as a Priestess. If Lea doesn't
require someone to kneel to her, what makes you think I would?"
"I'm sorry, Master," said the woman as she gracefully rose to her feet.
"And as far as being the head of the household..."
"You are," came a new voice -- Lea's, as she appeared in a doorway.
"You are my Avatar, you will make the decisions. You will lead."
To say he was surprised would be a vast understatement. Only once had
Lea given him an actual command. Lots of suggestions, yes, but a command almost
never.
"Decision by committee is foolish," she said. "Listen to the views of
our Circle. Discuss the issues, then you will make a decision. Your decision
will be final." She walked up to him and wrapped Her arms around him. Thought
stopped as She kissed him and whispered, "You are my Avatar, my High Priest. It
is your responsibility to keep my people safe." Her words were still echoing in
his head as She disappeared.
"Well," said Eric dryly. "That settles that."
Ken was still a little dazed from Her kiss. "Yup, I guess so." He
refocused on the rest of the Circle. They were still waiting. Ken looked at
them in silence, then said, "Anyone have any thoughts they'd like to share?"
"I have no problem with her staying," said Eric. "My read of her says
she'll fit in with no problem."
Sally and Jane nodded their agreement. Ari said nothing, which did not
go unnoticed by anyone.
"Ari," said Sally, "you're pretty quiet about this."
The girl nodded.
"What's wrong?"
Ken and Jane knew what was bothering the girl, but said nothing.
"Nothing. I'm alright," she said. "Of course, Tina should stay here."
Sally, however, wouldn't let that go. "C'mon, Ari. Things get pretty
intense around here. You sure you're okay with Tina moving in?"
"Yes. It'll be fine."
"Do you think we should start to wear clothing?" asked Sally of Ari.
"Well, maybe," she said, then, "I don't know. You should do whatever
makes you comfortable. We told her what the deal was." The little redhead
stood and left the room.
"She's got it bad, doesn't she?" commented Eric.
"I've never seen her unsure of herself," added Sally.
"I think it's because Tina reminds her of what her life used to be
like," said Jane. Everyone looked at her. "Well, okay. That and the fact that
she's dying to submit to her sister."
"Tina's on her way down," said Ken.
"So, what's the status then?" asked Eric.
"Well, we're not going to change how we live. Just don't go out of your
way to make the girl uncomfortable. If she's really unhappy here -- something
that I doubt she'll be -- then we'll figure out something else. But for now?
Just play it by ear."
"Hello?" came Tina's voice. She had no idea where they were.
"I'll get Bill to show her the computer system and show her how to use
it," said Ken as he walked out. "Jane, find our wife will you? I think she's
feeling a little lost."
"Of course, Master," said Jane, who was thinking much the same thing.
Ken could feel Arianwen's emotions. They were as unsettled as they'd
ever been since he'd met her. With all the changes the Circle been through, he
tended to forget that they were all very new at this. He also tended to forget
Ari's age.
"Hi, Tina," he said as he walked into the entrance hall. He grinned and
said, "Don't worry, it won't be long before you know your way around here. The
kitchen's this way. If you're hungry, we can get a snack, but Sally should have
dinner ready fairly soon."
They talked as he showed her the way to the kitchen (where she declined
a snack), then the main study, small pool and the small dining area they usually
ate in. Tina was in awe of it all, but tried not to gape.
"Tina," he said, looking at her when they had returned to the pool. "I
know you're looking around this place and thinking about how much money it
represents. And it's quite a chunk of cash, that's for sure. But the truth is,
none of us are really all that used to it either. We've only been a little over
a month. Before that I was doing okay, but was by no means rich, and neither
was anyone else."
"Then how did you end up here?"
Ken grinned and said, "I won the lottery." In more ways than one, he
thought.
Tina stopped and looked at him. "No way!"
"Yes way," he replied. "Trust me, it was a shock." Of course it would
have been more of a shock if Lea hadn't entered his life. But then, if she
hadn't, he wouldn't have won the lottery.
Arianwen was at the table for dinner and even managed to get excited
about taking her sister to the mall to buy her clothing the next day. But Ken
could tell she was still disturbed by her feelings and desires. Those feelings
and desires were not something she wanted to deal with. In some ways, she felt
like she was still Ally, trying to reconcile sexual desires with a religion that
told her those desires made her an evil person.
After helping clean up dinner, they all went out to the pool, which was
where Tina got her first experience with the nudity that was so much a part of
the household now. Sally just stripped and jumped into the pool, followed by
Jane. Ari declined to swim, saying she was too tired and Tina was too shy to
strip off in front of Eric and Ken. She'd borrowed a skirt and top from Sally,
who was close to her height, but no one had a bathing suit that would fit her.
She looked like she really wanted to go in, though.
Eric didn't stay long as the baby needed attention, and Ken realized
that, as long as he was there, Tina wouldn't get to swim. So he went upstairs
to the dojo and did a light workout, then to the main media room to watch a
movie. Eric joined him there and they sat and watched "X-Men".
Toward the end of the movie, Ken felt a rising tide of lust coming from
the playroom. Ari and Jane were in there, but by the time the movie was over
and he got upstairs, Jane was in the bedroom. Ari was till in the playroom.
Jane was kneeling, waiting for him, when he walked into the room.
"Master," she said. "Your other slave is in the playroom. I believe
she's hoping you'll use her, tonight."
"I see," he said squatting down in front of the naked woman. She was
just so beautiful that sometimes it took his breath away. Since becoming a High
Priestess, her body had changed, and while the individual changes were pretty
subtle, taken together they were breathtaking. Her large breasts were firm
enough to not need a bra, but looking at them left no doubt they were completely
natural. Jane had already been in very good shape when they met, but since then
her overall tone had improved -- and, in fact, her muscle mass had increased,
giving her a sleek look. He grinned, thinking that she looked even more
cat-like than she had before. Her dark, curly hair was longer than it had been,
now reaching about the middle of her back. He wasn't completely sure, but it
seemed as if the blue of her eyes had deepened as well. Since they seemed to
change color a fair amount so he wasn't sure. Ken stood and held out his hand
and together they walked to the play room.
Ari was waiting for them alright. She had little choice, considering
the position that Jane had left her in. Her arms had been folded and tied at the
small of her back with some expertly-applied rope that crossed her upper torso,
and pressed her small breasts to her body, but left her nipples free for play.
Her ankles had been tied, and that rope attached to the ropes around her upper
torso, knotted between her shoulders. The rope had been pulled so tight that
her toes were within inches of her back, forcing her body in a painful backwards
bow.
Jane hadn't stopped there, though. She'd taken Ari's dark red hair and
braided a leather thong into it. This she'd run through a D-ring at the end of
a steel 'J' shaped tube, who's hook had been sunk deeply into Ari's ass, then
ran the thong to a crossbeam on the frame. Any movement of Ari's head pulled
the tube, which was unfortunate for her, since that rope was part of what
balanced her in position.
Jane's final touch was the other thing keeping her in place.
Each of Ari's nipple rings had a leather thong tied to it, the other end of
which was attached to the table in front of her. They thongs were so taut, that
they pulled each tiny breast into a small cone. The position was extreme
because any movement -- even breathing, which was quite difficult -- pulled
something, somewhere. Of course, Arianwen had become quite adept at deriving
intense sexual pleasure from extreme positions and this one was making her drip.
Not only that, but since Lea had modified her nipples, the constant sharp tug on
them kept Ari on the razor's edge of orgasm.
Ken also noticed that Ari had been fitted with the largest ring gag her
mouth could take. She couldn't swallow, and saliva was dripping off her chin
and running down the front of her throat. The height of the table was perfect
for fucking her mouth, something he was sure was no mistake.
(Thinking about it later, he realized that it was no surprise Arianwen
had sought out bondage as comfort, so to speak. Enjoying the pain and pleasure
of rope, being used by her Master -- and, perhaps, Jane -- was an affirmation of
her new life and a rejection of the old one her sister apparently reminded her
of.)
Ken was hard; the sight that the teen provided was definitely
provocative. He looked at her for a moment while deciding what to do. It
wasn't much of a decision, though, so he turned and pushed his large cock
through the ring in her mouth.
It was a very tight fit, and he couldn't go very deep. And with each
push, he caused Ari's body to rock back and forth, which caused even more
difficulty with her breathing and her nipples to be cruelly tugged. It also
caused the rod in her ass to be pulled. Ari choked a bit, since he gave her
little consideration as he fucked her mouth, allowing her bonds to keep her in
place.
However, she came before he did, even though the orgasm seemed to give
her little relief. The pain in her breasts, the incredibly strict bondage and
the lack of oxygen took their toll as the orgasm wracked her body. Sweat pooled
and dripped down her body and into her eyes, stinging them.
Ken finally came, but remained hard. His cock was slick with Ari's
spit, so he turned Jane around, bent her over and speared her asshole. She
groaned in pain, but for Jane that was pleasure. He fucked her pretty hard as
Ari watched, wishing for something to give her relief. Ken fucked Jane for a
good ten minutes before cumming in her bowels. He pulled his cock out of Jane
and pushed it into Ari's mouth. Ari wasn't really into a2m (ass to mouth) play,
certainly not the way Genie was, but there was nothing she could do to stop him.
She discovered, however, that because there was nothing she could do, it aroused
her all the more.
Ken didn't deposit any more sperm into her mouth; instead, he backed
away and looked at Jane.
"Put your asshole on her mouth and make her use her tongue. Stay that
way until I return. Feel free to cum if you'd like," he said, then walked out.
Sally and Eric were in their room so he knocked on their door.
"Hey, guys? I need a favor," he said when he entered.
Sally's eyes were blazing, and he knew Eric was erect, as well. They'd
felt all the activity from the playroom and had just been considering joining
them.
"Ari's in need of some attention. She's tied up in the playroom. Feel
free to use her anyway you'd like until I send Jane to untie her. Make sure
that you don't have to pee after you're finished with her."
Eric grinned and nodded, as did Sally.
"We'll be in in a few," Eric said.
"Thanks," replied Ken. He quickly cleaned up, then -- still naked --
headed downstairs. He knew that Bill and Genie were almost in the garage, so
waited for them to come in the house. He was sipping some water when they
arrived.
"Hey guys, have fun tonight?" he asked as they walked in.
"Yeah," replied Bill. "How're you doing?"
"Fine. Are you going to be up for a while?"
"What'd you have in mind?" asked Genie licking her lips and looking at
Ken's cock.
He smiled, "Well, maybe some of that, but there's something else we need
to discuss. There's been an addition to the household, and she has the
potential to sort-of complicate things for a while."
"Karen?" asked Bill.
"No, someone else. Look, I'm almost finished with something upstairs.
Can you guys hang for a few?"
They looked at each other, and Genie said, "Sure."
"Great," replied Ken and went back upstairs.
Jane was still fucking her asshole on Ari's tongue when Ken returned.
He could see the girl's tongue sliding in and out of the tight hole. Again, it
wasn't Ari's favorite thing to do, but it was getting Jane off as she rode Ari's
tongue while pulling her own clit ring. Ari was getting off on Jane's
excitement plus her own helplessness.
"Okay, Jane," said Ken, and the woman stepped away and stood up. Ken
walked over to one of the closets and pulled out a new type of gag; one that
Gary had given him especially for Arianwen. She hadn't seen it yet. It was a
funnel gag, designed to seal over a submissive's lips and allow liquids to be
poured in her helpless mouth via a semi-flexible tube. Ari shuddered as he
fitted it to her for the first time. Eric and Sally entered the room just as he
finished.
"You can take this out if you need to, but I thought it'd be useful at
the moment," said Ken.
Then he directed his cock head toward the upturned mouth of the funnel
and released his bladder. Ari moaned as the hot liquid flowed into her mouth.
She swallowed quickly, trying to keep up with the flow. The Circle felt her
arousal quickly flare into a hot fire. When Ken was finished, he stepped back
and motioned for Jane to take his place. She re-adjusted and straddled the
funnel and let loose. Her aim wasn't as good as Ken's -- on purpose no doubt --
and Ari's face was pretty wet by the time Jane finished emptying her very full
bladder.
Ken knelt next to his wife. She was panting shallowly, each breath a
strain, and her thoughts clouded with lust. Ken unsnapped the funnel from the
gag.
"Ari, my love," he said, "look at me."
She focused on him and he said, "This is part of your life now -- a big
part. As you noted earlier, you're a High Priestess in a religion dedicated to
sex. You're a sex slave; bondage and watersports get you off in a big way.
Normally, this wouldn't be a problem, you could hide it from anyone you wanted
to. But Tina's one of us, and you know it. So start thinking of a way to deal
with your sister being in your life."
He stood and clipped the funnel back into the gag.
Turning to Eric, he said, "She's all yours. Would you bring her to our
bedroom when you've finished?"
Eric smiled and tapped the crop he held against his palm. "It might be
a while."
Ken shrugged. "She's a slave. Take all the time you need."
Ari groaned, lust spiking though her body. She was developing a real
taste for helplessness. Ken and Jane left the room. Jane asked if he wanted her
there when she spoke to Genie and Bill.
"Not if you don't want to. By the way, have you spoken to Genie
lately?"
"Yes," said Jane looking at him.
Ken sighed and said, "I wonder why it hasn't happened to Bill."
"Maybe because he wasn't at the ritual? I don't know. But I think we
should wait until Ari can join us, don't you? At least for something formal."
"Oh yeah. Eric and Sally, too," he added.
"We could make it formal on the 7th, but if we don't start helping her
out before then, she's gonna freak."
Ken nodded his agreement and said, "I wonder what triggered it?"
Jane shrugged. "You could always ask Lea."
Ken had a thought and said, "I wonder if Annette has been
affected? She was still glowing when I saw them earlier this week. Gary's been
under a lot of pressure, though, so he might not have noticed. Would you call
them and see if they're coming by tomorrow? Also, tell them about Tina."
"OK." They kissed, and Ken headed downstairs.
"Hey, guys," he said flopping into a chair, "have a good time out?"
Bill grinned and nodded, obviously very happy to have the beautiful
woman out with him for the evening. Genie was a little quiet, but not enough
that Bill would notice. Ken had sensed earlier that, despite her outward
bounciness, something was bothering her, which was what prompted him to speak to
Jane.
"So, what's this about a new addition to the household?" Bill asked.
Ken explained what had happened, and how they needed to let Tina stay
with them. Bill and Genie were silent.
"I'm sure she'll fit in just fine," said Genie as her eyes lost a bit of
focus. "She and Ari have a lot of similarities."
Bill looked at her and said, "Genie, you've never even met her."
"Um, yeah, " she stammered, "I meant that because they're sisters and
all, they probably are a lot alike."
"She's only fifteen," replied Bill.
"Arianwen's only seventeen," said Genie sharply, "And you don't have a
problem fucking her."
Bill sort of jumped a little at Genie's tone. Ken knew that it was time
to speak with Genie. She really was having a hard time of it.
"I'm sorry, honey," she said to Bill stroking his arm, "that didn't come
out like I meant it to."
"Hey, it's okay," he said kissing her lightly.
Bill had come a long way in a short time, as they all had. He really
loved Genie, but was confused by her acceptance that he had sex and played BDSM
games with other women. It didn't make it less confusing for him to realize
that he felt no jealousy when Genie played with other people. But this was his
first real relationship as an adult -- or ever, actually, with anything that
didn't have a keyboard. Ken knew he felt as if he were flying blind.
They continued to discuss Tina's impact on the household and how to deal
with it. Genie was of the firm opinion that they shouldn't change how the
household worked. Bill was all for that, but didn't want to freak the kid out.
"We talked before dinner and decided to just ease into things," said
Ken. "There's no play party planned for this weekend, so that will make things
easier. Although I'm sure that Gary and Annette will come by to hang out -- at
least, I hope they will -- and Jane and I were planning to ride with Sandy."
Genie got a big grin on her face and said, "And we all know what biking
does to her!"
Ken returned her grin. "Oh yeah."
Bill stood and said, "I'm tired. You coming upstairs?" he asked Genie.
"In a few minutes, hon," she smiled.
Ken knew she was very restless, since she was being affected by the
energy produced by the goings-on in the playroom. For the first time since
she'd moved in here, she felt shy about expressing her desire to have sex with
Ken. She and Bill had fooled around a little while they were out, but she was
having a hard time focusing for some reason.
"Interested in a swim?" she asked Ken.
"Genie, sit down," he said.
Startled a bit by his tone, she sat.
"You've been studying with Jane and Ari about our religion," he said,
"right?"
"Yeah," she replied, wondering what he was getting at.
"What do you remember about the ritual last week?"
Genie told him. She recounted what they'd done, what the ritual
was for and who'd been there, including Lea.
"Do you believe that our Goddess exists?" asked Ken.
"Of course..." replied Genie, who then cut herself off. Ken
watched the gears turn in her head as she thought about his question. She
realized at that point that, not only did she believe, but she was absolutely
sure that their Goddess did exist.
"You mentioned, everyone in the Circle, Genie, including Lea.
What did you think about her?"
"I... I don't know. You know, this is really weird." Genie was
beginning to get frightened. "It seems like she's always around here, only I've
just realized that I don't see her very often. In fact, the only time I can
clearly remember seeing her was at the ritual." She paused. "But I swear that
I've seen her other times!"
Ken moved onto the couch with Genie, who was now trembling. He
took her hand and, oddly, that seemed to help reduce her sense of unreality.
"Genie, you don't just believe that the Goddess is real. You
know it, don't you?"
She nodded.
"You know that I'm Her High Priest, right?" Another nod. "I'm
also her Avatar -- although, not in the strictest sense of the word. If you can
accept that the Goddess is real, can you accept that She can give those who
worship Her, those who decide to dedicate themselves to Her, some ... abilities
... that they wouldn't otherwise have?"
Genie breathed out and said, "That seems more unlikely than the
fact that She exists at all."
"But it's true," he said gently. "Things have been a little
strange for you this last day or so, haven't they? It's like you're tuned into
certain people's feelings -- sexual feelings. Their needs and wants; almost
like you can tell their sexual history and know their fantasies." She looked at
him with wide eyes, too afraid to even nod. "A few days ago, before this
started up, did you make any decisions regarding this religion?"
Genie, nodded. "I... it was Wednesday morning, actually. Joan
and I were... playing ... before I had to go to work. I remember looking at her
and feeling how happy we were making her. Then, I thought about how everyone
here was acting and it sort of smacked me in the face that what we were doing
was just not normal. No one lives like this! All this sex, and love. There's
no jealously here, damn few arguments, and I know that's just not normal.
"I knew that, somehow, you, Jane and Ari were causing it. Or,
not exactly causing it, but a part of it, living it." She stopped, then started
again. "This is hard to explain. I was a part of it, too, but sort-of on the
outside. The ritual convinced me that I wanted to be more included in what
you're building here. In that moment, I knew that it wasn't just you three.
Sally and Eric were also more... I don't know, connected... with what was going
on. I decided to approach you and ask what I could do to become more of a part
of things.
"Somehow, it kept slipping my mind to ask you what I could do.
I was feeling a little guilty because yesterday I started feeling that...
inclusion that I associate with you guys. But since I didn't ask anyone if I
could join you, I didn't feel legitimate. That was really starting to bother
me."
They sat in silence for a moment. Ken put his hands on either
side of her face and pulled her gently into a deep kiss. Genie groaned and
almost melted.
"Would you like to be a Priestess? To join our Circle?"
There was no hesitation in her answer, despite the shakiness of
her husky whisper.
"Yes. Very much."
"Go upstairs and sleep," he replied. "Tomorrow, I'll tell the
Circle that you want to join us. They will accept you with open arms. Jane
already knows you're with us. On August 7th, during our ritual, you can
formally dedicate yourself as a Priestess. Tomorrow, we'll explain to you why
you've been feeling the things you have; what this all means. If you want out,
that will be the time to do it. Becoming a Priestess is a big step, but it's
not irreversible. Lea only wants willing people to serve Her."
They kissed again and a somewhat dazed Genie walked upstairs.
"Well done, Kenneth," said Lea.
Ken looked at her and smiled, his heart beat quickening as it
always did in Her presence.
"Thank you," he replied. "I'm flying kind of bind here though.
How did Genie started getting Circle talents?"
"When people associate themselves with me, begin to believe and
want to join with us, the power grows in them. It will fade if they leave. It
will fade if they are not true to us," She replied.
"In that case, I'd better make sure to speak to Annette, hadn't
I?"
"Oh yes," replied Lea, a big smile on her face. "She is strong,
very strong. The ceremony to include her should be special, I think."
Ken frowned and said, "I'd hate to do something that would make
Genie feel less included."
"I think you will find that the ritual to accept each person
will be different. Each will join us in their own way. Each time, it will be
what is right for them," replied Lea. "Arianwen is troubled."
"Yes. She's very attracted to her sister and that's bringing up
all kinds of feelings that she doesn't associate with the Circle. If Tina
weren't her sister, then it would be a different story."
"Most of the time," said Lea, "it is not good for humans
related by blood to mate and produce children. Your genetics are too impure.
For other reasons, it is a poor idea for parents and their children to have sex.
The dynamics of those relationships are too skewed. But, she and her sister
should have none of those issues."
"I think that Arianwen has slammed into a cultural barrier that
she never thought about," replied Ken. "Certainly she's been fantasizing about
her sister for a long time. Faced with the reality, she's a bit disturbed."
"Arianwen is very young," replied Lea, "but I have every
confidence that she will overcome this problem." Lea paused, then said, "There
are other issues, as well. Arianwen is sexually aroused by activities that she
fears her sister will find repulsive. Sex aside, she loves Tina very much and
would be quite distressed if she were to lose Tina's love and respect."
Ken nodded. "It's a complicated problem, alright. If she'd
just read Tina, she'd know through Tina's fantasies that her fears are
groundless."
"In time," said Lea. "In time, Arianwen will surrender to the
inevitable. I believe she will find Tina to be very persuasive." Lea flashed
him a large grin, one that he was coming to discover meant he'd better be on the
lookout for something. "As will you."
With that he was alone in the room. He rose and went upstairs.
