The slave thing was unexpected. Did Clair volunteer for that or was she forced to do it?

Look at 'Slave' as unwilling servants with nothing about it would be volunteering.

Slavery can be either voluntary or involuntary. Voluntary slavery can be either Indentured Servitude or full slavery. Involuntary slavery can be either full slavery, judicial slavery, or indentured slavery. Full slavery is for a lifetime while judicial and indentured have fixed time periods.

Considering how the story is going, I would think she could be forced or coerced into it. Kind of like Emma's choice of "do it or be expelled". There isn't any justification for Clair's sudden appearance as a slave. So, she wrote something on Emma's chest and made up with her best friend. What does that have to do with Clair becoming Emma's slave? At this point in the story, Clair's appearance as Emma's slave needs a backstory. Maybe a simply short where Emma asks, and Clair explains.

My next question: Will Clair move in with Emma or will she only be a slave at school? How will being a slave affect her education? How long will she be a slave? As long as Emma is part of the art project? Or for a shorter period?

I was completely helpless, stripped of movement and choice. The straps dug into my skin, pinning me to the cold, unyielding contraption. My limbs were stretched unnaturally, bound tight as if to remind me that resistance was not just futile—it was forbidden. Every muscle in my body ached, screaming for relief, yet the cruel design allowed none. My breath came in shallow, trembling gasps, each one weighted with the crushing awareness of my vulnerability. The air around me felt heavy, and oppressive, like the silence before a storm.

My thoughts raced, a cacophony of confusion and disbelief. Only hours ago, I had confronted Claire in the hallway—a girl trembling with raw emotion, her pain as evident as the tears she had barely concealed. I remembered the weight of her sorrow as though she had carved it onto my chest in letters wrapped around my breasts. But now? She knelt before me, calm and poised, her composure chilling. It was as if she had shed her humanity in favor of this unrecognizable submission.

Why? The question echoed in my mind, unanswered and unrelenting. How had Claire become this? And worse—how had I been dragged into this nightmare? It was as if everything that happened wasn’t by chance of confronting Claire if that is her name and the story she told me earlier was real.

The sharp, deliberate click of Ms. Amberley’s heels shattered the suffocating silence. Each step reverberated through the room, a cruel reminder of her authority. My chest tightened at the sound, my body instinctively tensing despite my restraints. She moved with the precision of a predator, her gaze sweeping over the room as if she owned every inch of it—and everyone in it.

My eyes darted between Claire, still kneeling like a statue of obedience, and Ms. Amberley, who exuded a suffocating aura of control. The polished floor reflected her every movement, amplifying the meticulous choreography of power and dominance. Her presence demanded attention, and no one dared look away.

Behind me, the frame of the device pressed against my back—an amalgamation of wood, steel, and cruelty. The coarse fibers of the ropes scraped against my skin, a constant, stinging reminder of my confinement. The restraints didn’t just hold me in place; they stripped away my sense of self. Suspended and exposed, I was no longer a person. I was a thing, a piece of this grotesque game I couldn’t escape.

At the center of the room sat Keera, perched on a throne-like structure of leather and steel. She was regal, her posture commanding, her confidence unshakable. Around her, her slaves moved with a precision that sent chills down my spine. They were silent and efficient, their hands tightening straps and adjusting bindings with practiced ease that suggested this was routine. Keera didn’t even look at them; she didn’t need to. Her mere presence dictated their movements.

“Excellent form, Keera,” Ms. Amberley said, her voice slicing through the tension like a blade. “Your control is immaculate. As expected.”

Keera smirked, the corner of her lips curling in satisfaction. She thrived in this world, a twisted reality where dominance was currency, and submission was a virtue. Her confidence radiated like a beacon, casting the rest of us in shadow. This wasn’t a game to her. It was her domain.

“Place your first assigned slave into position,” Ms. Amberley commanded, her tone cool and unyielding.

Keera moved with an almost casual ease, her gaze settling on a girl at her feet. At Keera’s words, she shifted into position, her movements smooth and deliberate. There was no hesitation, no resistance. The others—worked quickly to bind her into a tight harness of ropes. Her arms and legs were folded neatly into a seated squat, her face pressed against Keera’s legs.

The sight turned my stomach. The meticulous way they worked, the rehearsed efficiency of it all—it was too much. My chest tightened, nausea clawing its way up my throat. How could anyone accept this? How could anyone become this? Yet as I watched, I realized they weren’t just participants; they were extensions of Keera’s will, bound to her in ways I couldn’t begin to understand.

“Now,” Ms. Amberley said, her voice sharper this time, her gaze cutting to me like a knife, “command your slave into position.”

The words hit me like a thunderclap. My breath faltered, and my heart pounded so hard I thought it might burst. My gaze snapped to Claire. She got up as others began strapping her so her face was now touching my vulva—which felt unnatural. Her posture was steady, her hands resting on my thighs as her body betrayed no emotion. Something I couldn’t name. Was it acceptance? Resignation? Or something more insidious—a quiet defiance buried under layers of calm?

“I…” The word barely escaped my lips, my voice trembling under the weight of expectation. I couldn’t move, couldn’t think. My mind raced in every direction, searching for an escape, a way to undo what had already been set in motion. But there was none.

Ms. Amberley’s heels clicked against the floor, drawing closer. Her shadow fell over me, her presence suffocating. “Do not hesitate, Emma,” she said, her tone icy. “This is not a request. It is an expectation.”

Her words froze the air in my lungs. My gaze flickered down to Claire again, who I felt pressing her tongue into me. That sent stillness mocked my paralysis, amplifying my chaos. I couldn’t make sense of her expression—it was unreadable, yet haunting. This wasn’t the girl I had comforted in the hallway. This was someone—or something—else.

“You chose her,” Ms. Amberley continued, her voice softer now but no less cutting. “When you comforted her in the hallway, you claimed her. Take control. Prove it.”

Her words sent a chill down my spine, a cruel echo that refused to fade. I stared down at Claire, frozen as the room seemed to close in around me. The walls pressed inward, the silence deafening.

And then I realized: I was just as a slave to this sick world as Claire and the rest of us on that stage under the ultimate control of Ms. Amberley’s crazy art project and control.

Looking over at the other two contractions that I learned held Ellen, a junior, and Jenna, a sophomore, strapped with another face pressed between their legs. Ms. Amberley commanded most of whom I believe are all nothing but naked slaves to move the other three contractions to the theater lobby to get it ready for the class to arrive for the assembly. I then watched the other three contractions move off the stage along with most of the other naked individuals from the handful that were still present.

Once the stage was empty, Ms. Amberley turned her attention to me. “Emma, command your slave to dig deep inside those folds and push that tension out.” I was frozen at that thought as I felt her tongue explode sending shockwaves down my spine. Then as if time stopped when I closed my eyes and reopened them, standing before me was that harsh no-nonsense teacher who had been pushing me into this unforgiving world that I never asked for was now completely in the nude, and everything inside me exploded.

The room blurred, and my senses overwhelmed. Ms. Amberley’s command echoed in my mind like a relentless drumbeat, demanding compliance. My muscles tensed against the restraints, my breath shallow as I struggled to ground myself amidst the chaos. Claire’s touch—calm, precise, yet alien—was a stark contrast to the storm raging inside me. My thoughts spun out of control, tangling into knots of fear, shame, and defiance.

I forced my gaze up to Ms. Amberley, standing bare before me, her posture a portrait of confidence and control. Her eyes locked onto mine, piercing and unwavering. Her expression wasn’t cruel, but it wasn’t kind, either. It was detached, as if she were watching a scene unfold in a play, her role merely to direct the cast. Her nudity didn’t seem to faze her; in fact, it was as if she wielded it as another tool of her power.

“You resist,” she said, her voice soft but sharp as glass. “Good. Resistance shapes strength. But too much, and it will break you. This moment, Emma is not about you bending to me. It is about finding who you are beneath what you think you should be.”

Her words sent a cold ripple through me. Beneath what I think I should be? What did that even mean? I wasn’t here to find myself. I was here because I had been dragged into this nightmare against my will. But as I stared back at her, I couldn’t ignore the strange flicker of something beneath her composed exterior. Was it an expectation? Curiosity? Or something darker?

I glanced down at Claire. Her face was pressed close to me, her breathing steady, her body still. There was no defiance in her posture, no visible resistance. But there was something in her eyes—a quiet, unspoken understanding that both unsettled and intrigued me. She wasn’t just submitting; she was enduring. For what reason, I couldn’t fathom.

“I didn’t choose this,” I said, my voice trembling yet firm enough to slice through the silence.

Ms. Amberley tilted her head, her lips curling into a faint, almost amused smile. “You didn’t choose the situation, no. But you chose her.” Her gaze flickered to Claire. “When you reached out to her when you comforted her in the hallway, you stepped into a role. You took responsibility. And now you are here, facing the weight of that choice.”

Her words hit like a punch to the gut. I wanted to deny it, to scream that I didn’t ask for any of this. But deep down, I knew she was right. I had seen Claire’s pain and her vulnerability, and I had chosen to care. I had thought I was helping her, protecting her. Instead, I had been pulled into this twisted reality where care was a weapon and connection a chain.

My thoughts snapped back to the present as I felt Claire shift slightly against me. Her touch was light, almost imperceptible, but it grounded me in the moment. My breathing steadied, and I forced myself to meet Ms. Amberley’s gaze again.

“You may feel powerless now,” Ms. Amberley continued, her tone even. “But power is a fluid thing, Emma. It is not always about control. Sometimes, it is about understanding the role you play and the strength you can wield within it.”

Her words lingered, a haunting refrain that refused to leave me. I didn’t know what she wanted from me—what this whole charade was meant to prove. But I realized something at that moment: I wasn’t going to let her break me. Not like this.

I closed my eyes, shutting out the oppressive room, the watchful gazes, the suffocating expectations. Instead, I focused on my breathing, slow and steady, and the faint hum of my heartbeat. If I was trapped in this, I wouldn’t give Ms. Amberley the satisfaction of breaking me down.

When I opened my eyes, I met Claire’s gaze. Her expression was still unreadable, but there was a flicker of something in her eyes—a question, perhaps, or a silent plea. I didn’t know what she needed from me, but at that moment, I made a promise to myself: I would find a way out of this. For her, for me, for everyone caught in this sick game.

Ms. Amberley’s voice broke through the silence again, sharp and commanding. “Good, Emma.” I felt the contraction that was holding me from moving to the front of the stage next to the podium when I saw the school principal, several vice principals, several other officials, and some clothed students that I recognized from the school student council along with others setting up chairs for everyone at showed up to the stage.

Ms. Amberley tilted her head, her lips curling into a faint, almost amused smile. “You didn’t choose the situation, no. But you chose her.” Her gaze flickered to Claire. “When you reached out to her when you comforted her in the hallway, you stepped into a role. You took responsibility. And now you are here, facing the weight of that choice.”

Chapter 6A: The Assembly of Control

The stage lights were merciless, their searing beams cutting through the darkness like molten blades. They scorched my skin as if I were a slab of meat left too long on a grill. I winced against the brightness, my body bound in the unforgiving contraption, and I wasn’t alone. Around me, others were trapped in similar devices, their faces barely visible through the blinding glare.

The heat was unbearable, a relentless assault that left me raw and exposed. My flesh tingled, the threat of blisters imminent. I squinted against the restraints, feeling the unwanted warmth of Claire’s body pressed against mine. She was strapped to me, our lower halves entwined in an unyielding grip. There was no escape.

My vision swam as I tried to make out the shapes of the other captives—those bound in their own torturous devices, those standing offstage, watching. The auditorium, with its high ceilings and shadowed corners, loomed over us, amplifying the suffocating atmosphere. Most of the seats were empty, save for a few scattered figures, their presence deepening the dread. Though I couldn’t see their faces, I felt their eyes on me—cold, calculating, and hungry.

I was bound, contorted into a grotesque display of submission to a fate I never chose. The contraption holding me was a nightmare of cold metal and splintered wood, digging into my back like jagged teeth. The ropes securing my wrists and ankles were drawn cruelly tight, slicing into my skin, leaving behind raw, bleeding impressions. Every movement sent waves of agony through my body. My muscles screamed in protest, but I was powerless—helplessly pressed against Claire, our bodies locked together by the restraints. I was a spectacle, an exhibit in a museum of suffering, laid bare for the amusement of unseen spectators.

Claire’s presence was both a comfort and a torment. Her face hovered dangerously close to my inner thigh, her breath ghosting over my skin, sending a shiver down my spine. My stomach churned. She looked at me, lips parting as if to speak. When she finally did, her voice was barely more than a whisper.

"I am your obedient slave property now," she murmured, her tone trembling, caught between fear and resignation.

My mind blanked.

"Nothing else matters anymore but to please my master."

A chill seeped into my bones. This was the same broken girl I had comforted in the hallway only hours ago. Claire—someone’s daughter, someone’s sister—was now a hollow shell, surrendering herself to this nightmare. The weight of her words pressed down on me, suffocating. I wanted to scream, to fight, to demand answers, but my voice was trapped in my throat, strangled by the horror of it all.

Ms. Amberley stepped forward, moving from the edge of the stage until she was nearly touching me. Her nude figure stood in stark contrast to the cold, clinical setting. Her posture was regal, her expression unreadable. She moved with deliberate grace, pausing at each contraption, issuing quiet commands with an authority that was both soft and absolute.

She was the architect of this nightmare. The puppeteer. And I was nothing more than a marionette in her grotesque theater.

Her gaze fell upon me. A shiver of fear rippled through my body as Claire’s tongue pressed between my folds, relentless in its motion. Ms. Amberley approached slowly, each click of her heels against the stage floor like a death knell. When she reached me, she loomed overhead, her cold eyes dissecting me like I was nothing more than an experiment.

"Emma," she said, her voice slicing through the silence. "You have been given a great responsibility—the ownership of your very own living companion, who will remain in your care well into adulthood."

I barely registered the words.

"Claire is yours to mold, to shape, to command. Her past has been erased, along with any records of her birth. She is your loyal property, having already undergone spaying by a specialized clinical veterinarian in post-free human conversion."

Spayed.

My stomach lurched.

"For the remainder of this school year—and for as long as you remain a student here—your companion will attend all of your classes, ensuring you are never alone. Your parents have agreed that neither you nor your companion will be permitted to cover your bodies, regardless of where you go."

My parents?

"Her temporary name, Claire, is yours to change if you desire. Do not squander this opportunity, Emma. You have been chosen for a great privilege."

Her words were knives to my chest, twisting deeper with every syllable. I wanted to protest, to scream that I didn’t want this that I never asked for it—but the words wouldn’t come. My throat was dry, my mind numb with fear. Claire’s relentless tongue sent an unbearable mix of pleasure and dread through my body, pushing me toward the edge of an abyss I refused to fall into.

My hands trembled in the restraints. Claire’s eyes met mine—wide, unblinking. And for a fleeting moment, I thought I saw something in them. A flicker of defiance. A question. A plea.

But it vanished as quickly as it came.

Ms. Amberley’s voice cut through the haze.

"Command her. Accept her as your slave."

I clenched my teeth. I don’t want this. I don’t want her.* But Ms. Amberley’s gaze bore down on me, demanding compliance, demanding my surrender.

"Do it," she urged, sharp and unrelenting. "Prove your worth as her master."

My fingers twitched. Slowly, I reached forward, hesitating as I touched the restraints binding Claire to me. Her skin was warm. Her breath is steady. But her eyes were empty.

A shell.

A hollowed-out version of the girl I had tried to save.

"Claire," I whispered, my voice cracking. "I… I don’t want to hurt you. But you are… my property."

Her lips parted in a faint, bittersweet smile. She pulled her tongue away, just briefly, to murmur:

"Yes. More than yes. I will be your obedient servant."

A dagger to my heart.

Ms. Amberley’s voice rose again, cutting through the tension like a whip.

"Emma, decide. Will you embrace your role as her master, or will you falter?"

The question hung in the air, suffocating.

I closed my eyes, shutting out the oppressive room, the watchful gazes, and the suffocating expectations. I focused on my breathing—slow, steady. The pounding of my heart, erratic but real.

And when I opened my eyes, Claire was still there. Waiting.

Her tongue thrust back inside me, harder than before.

Ms. Amberley’s voice loomed over me.

"Good, Emma. Your companion will be your comfort blanket, as loyal to you as the clothes of honor you no longer wear."

The contraption shifted, wheeled forward to the front of the stage, positioned beside the podium. Nearby, the school principal and several vice principals stood with quiet anticipation. Their eyes gleamed with something sick—something twisted.

Excitement.

The assembly was about to begin.

And I was the star of the show.

Yikes, spayed? Not just tubes tied?

Chapter 6B: The Spectacle of Control

I glanced to my sides, my vision blurred by the sweat dripping into my eyes, and saw the student council members from each grade. They were dressed in their formal attire, their movements precise and deliberate as they arranged chairs for the incoming audience. Their actions were cold, calculated, as if they were preparing for a grand performance—a spectacle designed not to entertain, but to destroy. The air was thick with anticipation, and I could feel the weight of their collective gaze settling on me, the centerpiece of this twisted exhibition.

The assembly began, and I was thrust into the spotlight, the main attraction alongside the other "contractions," as Ms. Amberley called us. We were nothing more than exhibits in a museum of sadism, helpless puppets in her elaborate game of control. The auditorium filled rapidly, students pouring in with a mix of excitement and unease. Their whispered conversations created a low hum that reverberated through the space, a sound that sent shivers down my spine. I could feel their eyes on me, on Claire, on the grotesque display we had become. My servant, bound tightly to my lower half, her face buried in me, was as much a part of this spectacle as I was. The ink markings, the ropes, the contraption that Claire’s back failed to cover—all of it was on display, a grotesque fusion of two bodies tied together as one.

Ms. Amberley’s voice cut through the noise like a blade, sharp and commanding. “Welcome, everyone, to our annual assembly on control. Today, we celebrate the power of art, the beauty of vulnerability, and the strength of complete submission for the sake of artistic expression.” Her words were deliberate, each syllable dripping with a perverse sense of pride. “Each of these students and their obedient servants are to be viewed as a single human canvas. You, the audience, will have the privilege of expressing your emotions and feelings upon their bodies. Remember, while they are here, no part of their bodies belong to them—not on this stage, nor anywhere on this campus.”

Her speech was met with a smattering of applause, the sound hollow and mocking. I wanted to scream, to tell them all to stop, to make them see the truth behind this grotesque charade. I wanted them to understand that I was a person that Claire was a person— or at least, she had been before this. But my voice was trapped, my body bound, my will stripped away. I was nothing more than a prop in Ms. Amberley’s twisted theater.

I closed my eyes, desperate to escape the overwhelming discomfort of the restraints digging into every corner of my body. The pain was relentless, a constant reminder of my helplessness. Sweat dripped down my temples, pooling at the base of my neck, while the stress of the situation made my heart race uncontrollably. I was in an extreme condition, one that left me completely vulnerable to the growing number of eyes fixed on me. They were everywhere—on the stage, in the seats, in the shadows. Each pair of eyes seemed to be judging every flaw in my body, scrutinizing every imperfection, every twitch, and every breath I took. It was as if I were under a microscope, exposed and defenseless, with no way to shield myself from their piercing gazes.

Amidst the chaos, my mind was a whirlwind of emotions. I felt completely overwhelmed, as though the weight of the entire room was pressing down on me. The restraints, the sweat, the stress—it all combined into a suffocating force that made it hard to breathe. I could feel my composure slipping, the mask of calm I had been trying to maintain cracking under the pressure. And yet, I knew I had to hold on. I had to keep it together, even if it felt futile.

Claire, my so-called living companion, was relentless. Her focus was unwavering, her movements precise and unyielding. She was going at it with a determination that left me no room to retreat, no moment of respite. I could feel every touch, every sensation amplified by the intensity of the situation. My body was on edge, every nerve firing in a desperate attempt to keep up with what was happening. I clung to the hope that I could somehow make it through this without drawing even more attention to myself. But it was a losing battle. The more I tried to hold on, the more I felt myself slipping, the more I felt the walls closing in.

The feeling of being completely overwhelmed was all-consuming. It wasn’t just the physical discomfort or the judgmental stares—it was the knowledge that I had no control over what was happening. I was at the mercy of the situation, of Claire, of the audience, of everything around me. My mind raced, trying to find a way out, a way to regain some semblance of control, but there was none. I was trapped, both physically and mentally, in a state of vulnerability that I had never experienced before.

Every second felt like an eternity, every moment stretching out into an endless void of discomfort and fear. I could feel the pressure building, the tension in my body reaching a breaking point. And yet, I knew I couldn’t give in. I had to keep going, had to keep fighting, even if it felt like I was fighting a losing battle. The weight of it all was crushing, but I had no choice but to endure. I was in too deep, and there was no way out but through.

As the assembly continued, I became acutely aware of the audience’s reactions. Some watched with morbid curiosity, others with a disturbing sense of enjoyment. A few even looked uncomfortable, as if they were questioning the morality of what they were witnessing. But no one spoke up. No one intervened. They were all complicit in this, whether they realized it or not.

“Emma,” Ms. Amberley said, her voice sharp and commanding, cutting through the haze of my thoughts and the relentless assault of Claire’s intimacy. I flinched, my body stiffening as her words pulled me back into the harsh reality of the stage. All eyes were on me now, the weight of their gazes pressing down like a physical force. Claire’s head remained buried between my legs, her movements unyielding, and her breath hot against my skin. I could feel her there, unrelenting, as though she were a part of me, yet entirely separate—a force I couldn’t control.

Ms. Amberley’s icy tone sliced through the air again. “Will you demonstrate the power of control to everyone?” Her words were a challenge, a demand that left no room for hesitation. The room fell silent, the tension so thick it was suffocating. My heart pounded in my chest, each beat echoing in my ears like a drum. My breath came in shallow, uneven gasps, and I could feel the sweat trickling down my back, mingling with the cold dread that had settled in my stomach.

I glanced down at Claire, her face still pressed deep into me, her eyes wide and unblinking, as if waiting for my command. Her gaze was unnerving, almost predatory, and yet there was a strange vulnerability in it, as though she, too, were trapped in this moment. My mind raced, trying to make sense of what was being asked of me, but the words felt foreign, the concept of control slipping through my fingers like sand.

“Command her,” Ms. Amberley repeated, her voice cutting through my thoughts like a knife. The command was clear, but the weight of it was unbearable. I swallowed hard, my throat dry and tight, as though I hadn’t spoken in hours. My voice trembled as I finally managed to speak, the words feeling heavy on my tongue.

“Claire,” I said, louder than I intended, my voice cracking under the pressure. “Dig deep in the folds and do not stop until Ms. Amberley’s assembly ends.” The words hung in the air, a strange mix of authority and desperation. For a brief moment, Claire’s movements stopped, her eyes blinking up at me, as if processing the command. Then, without a word, she resumed, her head moving up and down with a slow, deliberate rhythm. Her tongue pressed against me with a precision that sent shockwaves through my body, each touch igniting a fire that I couldn’t extinguish.

I clenched my fists, my nails digging into my palms as I fought to maintain some semblance of composure. The restraints binding my hands bit into my skin, the pain a faint distraction from the overwhelming sensations coursing through me. My body trembled, every nerve on edge, as I struggled to hold on. The room seemed to fade away, the lights blurring into a haze of color, the sounds muffled and distant. For a moment, everything turned black, the world narrowing to the single point of contact between Claire and me.

And then, just as suddenly, the room erupted into applause. The sound was deafening, a cacophony of clapping and cheers that felt like a physical force. I closed my eyes, shutting out the noise, the lights, and the oppressive weight of their expectations. But even with my eyes closed, I could feel their gazes, their judgment, and their approval. It was too much. My chest tightened, my breath coming in short, ragged gasps as I fought to keep myself together.

This was only the beginning.

The applause faded into a distant hum, drowned out by the pounding of my heart and the rush of blood in my ears. Claire’s movements were relentless, her tongue working with a precision that left me trembling, my body betraying me in ways I couldn’t control. I clenched my fists tighter, my nails digging deeper into my palms, as if the pain could anchor me to some semblance of reality. But it was no use. The sensations overwhelmed me, a tidal wave of pleasure and shame crashing over me, pulling me under.

I was drowning, lost in a sea of sensations and emotions that I couldn’t escape. The restraints, the sweat, the stress—it all blended into a single, unbearable weight. And yet, through it all, Claire continued, her movements unyielding, her touch unrelenting. I could feel myself unraveling, piece by piece, until there was nothing left but the raw, unfiltered truth of who I was in that moment.

And still, the applause continued, a constant reminder that this was not just about me. It was about them, about their expectations, their desires. I was merely a pawn in their game, a tool to be used and discarded. The thought sent a shiver down my spine, a cold realization that cut through the heat of the moment.

This was only the beginning, and I had no idea how much more I could take.

Ms. Amberley’s voice cut through the haze once more, sharp and commanding, pulling me back to the present. She turned her attention to one of the other contraptions on the stage, her presence as imposing as ever. But before she did, she paused, her gaze lingering on me. “Emma,” she said, her tone softer now, almost approving, “you’ve done well. But this is only the beginning as you learn how to maneuver your body extension—your new body extension in her, Claire.”

Her words hung in the air, heavy with implication. I opened my eyes, blinking against the harsh glare of the stage lights. Claire’s head was still moving, her relentless rhythm unbroken, her face buried deep between my legs. Ms. Amberley stood over me, her nude figure towering and statuesque, her expression unreadable. Her piercing gaze seemed to see straight through me, dissecting every thought, every emotion. She leaned in closer, her voice dropping to a whisper that only I could hear.

“I’m going to shift to others and their slave dolls now,” she said softly, her tone almost gentle, as if she were offering comfort rather than issuing a command. “Your slave will relentlessly pull out numerous orgasms until the assembly ends, pushing you over the edge again and again.”

Her words sent a jolt through me, a mix of revulsion and something darker, something I didn’t want to acknowledge. My mind went blank, the weight of her command pressing down on me like a physical force. I couldn’t think, couldn’t breathe. All I could do was repeat her words in my head, my voice trembling as I whispered them to myself, as if saying them aloud would make them more real.

Those words hung in the air, heavy and suffocating. Claire didn’t hesitate or stop. Her movements became more deliberate, more intense, her tongue working with a fervor that left me gasping. I tried to fight it, to resist the sensations coursing through me, but it was no use. My body betrayed me, responding to her touch in ways I couldn’t control. The world around me seemed to blur, the stage lights fading into a haze of white. I could hear the faint murmur of the audience, their whispers blending into a low, indistinct hum. But it all felt distant, disconnected, as if I were watching from somewhere far away.

And then it happened.

The first wave hit me like a thunderclap, a surge of pleasure so intense it left me breathless. My body arched against the restraints, my muscles tensing as the sensation washed over me. I tried to stifle the cry that escaped my lips, but it was no use. The sound echoed through the room, raw and unfiltered, a testament to my loss of control. Claire didn’t stop. Her movements became more urgent, more insistent, driving me closer to the edge with each passing second. The second wave hit me harder than the first, a relentless onslaught of pleasure that left me trembling, my body writhing against the ropes.

I lost count after that. The sensations blurred together, a continuous cascade of pleasure and shame that left me gasping, my body trembling with each new wave. The room seemed to spin around me, the stage lights flickering in and out of focus. My mind was a whirlwind of emotions—fear, shame, pleasure, and something else I couldn’t name. It was too much, and yet not enough. I was trapped in a cycle of overwhelming sensations, each one pulling me deeper into the abyss.

And then, just as suddenly as it had begun, it was over.

When I opened my eyes, I was lying on a cold, hard surface, the ropes gone, and the contraption nowhere to be seen. The stage lights dimmed, and I tried to make out where I was. My head rested in Claire’s lap, her hands gently rubbing my head and body, her touch surprisingly tender. The room was falling into darkness, the auditorium empty and silent. I blinked, my vision slowly adjusting to the sudden change. The chairs were neatly arranged, the audience gone. The only sound was the faint hum of the stage lights and the steady rhythm of Claire’s breathing.

I looked up at her, my body still trembling, my mind still reeling from what had happened. Her eyes met mine, and for a moment, there was something in her gaze—something soft, almost human. But it was fleeting, replaced by the same blank expression she had worn throughout the assembly. The stage lights dimmed further, the auditorium now completely silent. I didn’t know how much time had passed, or what had happened after I blacked out. All I knew was that I was alone, my body still trembling, my mind still haunted by the echoes of Ms. Amberley’s voice.

This was only the beginning.

The others on the stage were in similar positions, their bodies limp and exhausted, and their slave dolls tending to them with the same detached efficiency as Claire. The air was thick with the scent of sweat and something else, something primal. I leaned against the cold stage floor, my body aching, my mind racing. The assembly was over, but the weight of what had happened lingered, pressing down on me like a physical force.

I didn’t know what came next, or how much more I could endure. All I knew was that this was only the beginning, and the thought filled me with a dread I couldn’t shake. Claire’s hands continued to move over me, her touch both soothing and unsettling. I closed my eyes, trying to block out the world, but the memories of what had happened were etched into my mind, a constant reminder of my vulnerability.

This was only the beginning, and I had no idea how much more I could take.

Chapter 7A: The Weight of Ownership

The empty stage was cold, the air heavy with the lingering scent of sweat and shame. I sat up, my back pressed against Claire's chest, her breasts soft against my spine. My body still trembled from the aftermath of the assembly, the overwhelming sensations Claire had forced upon me still echoing through my nerves. My mind was a whirlwind of confusion, guilt, and exhaustion, each thought a jagged shard cutting through the haze of my thoughts. I felt raw, exposed, as if every layer of my being had been stripped away, leaving only the fragile core of who I was.

Claire’s arms were wrapped around my waist, her chin resting on my shoulder. Her breath was steady, her presence both comforting and unsettling. She kissed my neck softly, her lips warm against my skin, but the gesture felt hollow, a reminder of the role she had been forced into. I wanted to pull away, to distance myself from the reality of what she was—what we both were—but I couldn’t. Her touch was a tether, grounding me in a world that felt increasingly surreal.

And then Ms. Amberley walked in.

Her presence was like a ghost, silent and haunting, as she moved across the stage with her usual commanding grace. She began speaking to the others, her voice sharp and authoritative, but I couldn’t focus on her words. My attention was drawn to Claire, to the way she held me, to the quiet resignation in her eyes. She was a paradox—both fragile and defiant, her shaved head and marked body a testament to the system that had claimed her. The remnants of ink on her skin, like mine, told a story of ownership and control, of a life stripped down to its barest essentials.

Claire’s breath was steady, her expression calm, but there was something in her gaze—a flicker of something unspoken, something raw and vulnerable. It was as if she were waiting for me to say something, to acknowledge the weight of what had been placed upon us.

“Master,” she said softly, her voice barely above a whisper. “While most of my memory has been cleansed of the horror and abuse that was put upon me, the system is in the process of transferring my ownership to your parents until you come of age to assume the title. And then, if you choose, you can transfer my ownership to another… or discard me if I become defective.”

Her words hit me like a punch to the gut, the weight of them pressing down on me until I could barely breathe. I stared at her, my mind racing, my heart pounding in my chest. This wasn’t just about the assembly, about the humiliation and the spectacle. This was something deeper, something darker. This was about ownership, about control, about stripping away every last shred of autonomy until there was nothing left but obedience.

“What?” I managed to choke out, my voice trembling. “What are you talking about?”

Claire’s gaze didn’t waver. “I never knew my birth parents. I was passed through the system until I was given the choice to become a hybrid servant,” she repeated, her tone steady but laced with something I couldn’t quite place—resignation, perhaps, or despair. “Your parents signed the papers this morning. I belong to you now. Until you decide otherwise.”

The room seemed to spin around me, the walls closing in as her words sank in. This wasn’t just about the assembly, about the humiliation and the spectacle. This was something deeper, something darker. This was about ownership, about control, about stripping away every last shred of autonomy until there was nothing left but obedience.

“No,” I said, my voice cracking under the strain. “No, Claire, I don’t want this. I don’t want you to be… to be my property. This isn’t right.”

Her lips curved into a faint, bittersweet smile. “It doesn’t matter what you want,” she said softly. “This is the way it is. This is the way it’s always been.”

Her words were a dagger to my heart, a cruel reminder of the system that had ensnared us both. I wanted to scream, to cry, to tear the walls down and escape this nightmare. But I couldn’t. I was trapped, bound by the expectations of those around me and the weight of my guilt.

Claire reached out, her hand brushing against mine as she faced me. Her touch was warm, steady, but it sent a shiver down my spine. “You’ve only been kind to me,” she said softly. “And now I will be nothing more than your most precious accessory, something to be proud of owning. You don’t have to know all that is necessary in owning your living, breathing doll. But you do have to own me. That’s the rule that was told to me.”

I shook my head, tears welling in my eyes. “I don’t want to own you, Claire. I don’t want any of this.”

Her smile faltered, just for a moment, before she regained her composure. “I know,” she said softly. “But this is what we are now. This is what we’ve become.”

Her words hung in the air, heavy with implication. I wanted to argue, to protest, and to tell her that there had to be another way. But the truth was, I didn’t know. I didn’t know how to fight this, how to break free from the chains that bound us both.

Claire’s hand tightened around mine, her grip firm but not painful. “You don’t have to figure it all out right now,” she said softly. “But you do have to decide what kind of master you’re going to be.”

The words sent a chill down my spine, a mix of revulsion and something else I couldn’t quite name. I didn’t want to be a master. I didn’t want to be a part of this twisted system. But the weight of her gaze bore down on me, demanding an answer.

“Claire,” I whispered, my voice trembling. “I don’t know how to do this.”

Her lips curved into a faint smile, bittersweet and fleeting. “You’ll figure it out,” she said softly. “You’re stronger than you think.”

Her words were a small comfort, but they did little to ease the storm raging inside me. I closed my eyes, shutting out the oppressive room, the weight of her gaze, the suffocating expectations. Instead, I focused on my breathing, slow and steady, and the faint hum of my heartbeat.

When I opened my eyes, Claire was still there, her gaze steady, her expression calm. There was a flicker of something in her eyes—a question, perhaps, or a silent plea. I didn’t know what she needed from me, but at that moment, I made a promise to myself: I would find a way out of this. For her, for me, for everyone caught in this sick game.

“Claire,” I said softly, my voice steady despite the turmoil inside me. “I’m not going to hurt you. I’m not going to be cruel. But I’m also not going to own you. Not like this.”

Her smile faltered, just for a moment, before she nodded. “Okay,” she said softly. “But the system won’t let us go that easily.”

“I know,” I said, my voice firm. “But we’ll figure it out. Together.”

Her hand tightened around mine, her grip firm but not painful. “Together,” she repeated softly.

The room was silent, the air heavy with the weight of our shared resolve. We were trapped, bound by a system that sought to strip us of our humanity. But in that moment, I felt a flicker of hope—a fragile, tentative spark that refused to be extinguished.

Ms. Amberley stepped before me, her presence like a storm, her sharp eyes cutting through the tension like a blade. She was fully clothed now, her crisp blouse and tailored pants a stark contrast to our naked, marked bodies. Claire moved behind me, her arms sliding just under my breasts, her touch both grounding and suffocating. Her breath was warm against my neck, a reminder of the role she had been forced into, the role I had been forced to accept.

“Emma,” Ms. Amberley said, her voice cool and commanding. “It’s time.”

I blinked, my mind struggling to process her words. “Time for what?”

Ms. Amberley’s lips curved into a faint smile, her expression unreadable. “To meet your parents,” she said simply.

My stomach dropped, a wave of nausea crashing over me. My mother. The woman who had signed me up for this nightmare, who had stood by and watched as I was stripped bare and paraded like a trophy. The thought of facing her now, in this state, was almost too much to bear. And my father—his presence only added to the weight of the moment. What would he think of me now? Of Claire? Of what we had become?

Claire’s hand tightened around mine, her grip steadying me. “Come on,” she whispered, her voice calm but firm, as she kissed the back of my neck. “Let’s go.”

She nudged me, her movements smooth and deliberate. My legs trembled beneath me, my body still weak from the assembly, but Claire’s presence was a steadying force. Ms. Amberley led the way, her heels clicking against the floor with a precision that sent a chill down my spine. Claire and I followed, our steps slow and unsteady, our bodies still marked with the remnants of the assembly restraints.

The hallway was eerily quiet, the fluorescent lights casting a harsh glow over the sterile walls. The air was heavy with the scent of disinfectant, a stark reminder of the institution that had claimed us. Every step felt like a mile, every breath a struggle. My mind raced, trying to prepare for what was coming, but there was no preparation for this. No way to brace myself for the reality of facing my parents in this state.

As we approached the end of the hallway, I saw them.

My mother and father.

They stood there, my mother’s posture proud and unyielding, her expression a mix of satisfaction and something else I couldn’t quite place. Her eyes swept over me, taking in my naked, marked body with a calm detachment that made my stomach churn. My father stood beside her, his gaze flickering between me and Claire, his expression unreadable but his eyes sharp, calculating.

“Emma,” my mother said, her voice warm but laced with an undercurrent of something darker. “I’m so proud of you.”

The words hit me like a slap, the weight of them pressing down on me until I could barely breathe. Proud? How could she be proud of this? How could she stand there and smile as if this were some kind of achievement? My chest tightened, my breath coming in short, ragged gasps as I struggled to keep myself together.

Claire’s hand tightened around mine, her grip steadying me. “Breathe,” she whispered. “Just breathe.”

I forced myself to take a deep breath, my chest rising and falling in time with hers. My mother’s gaze flickered to Claire, her expression unreadable.

“And this must be your new doll,” she said, her tone light but laced with something I couldn’t quite place.

Claire didn’t flinch. She stood tall, her posture calm and composed, and her gaze steady. “Yes,” she said simply.

My mother’s lips curved into a faint smile, her expression softening. “Good,” she said. “I’m glad you’re adjusting so well, Emma. This is exactly what you needed.”

The words sent a chill down my spine, a mix of revulsion and something else I couldn’t quite name. I wanted to scream, to cry, to tell her that this wasn’t what I needed, that this wasn’t what I wanted. But the words wouldn’t come. My throat felt tight, my voice trapped beneath the weight of my emotions.

Claire’s hand tightened around mine, her grip firm but not painful. “We’ll figure it out,” she whispered. “Together.”

Her words were a small comfort, but they did little to ease the storm raging inside me. I closed my eyes, shutting out the oppressive room, the weight of my mother’s gaze, the suffocating expectations. Instead, I focused on my breathing, slow and steady, and the faint hum of my heartbeat.

When I opened my eyes, my mother was still there, her gaze steady, her expression calm. There was a flicker of something in her eyes—a question, perhaps, or a silent plea. I didn’t know what she needed from me, but at that moment, I made a promise to myself: I would find a way out of this. For Claire, for me, for everyone caught in this sick game.

My father stepped forward, his presence looming and imposing. His eyes swept over me, then Claire, his expression unreadable but his gaze sharp, calculating. “Emma,” he said, his voice low and measured. “This is a big responsibility. But I trust you’ll handle it well.”

The words felt like a weight, a burden I hadn’t asked for and didn’t want. I wanted to tell him that I didn’t want this responsibility, that I didn’t want any of this. But the words wouldn’t come. Instead, I nodded, my throat tight, my voice trapped beneath the weight of my emotions.
