We entered the same corridor I had been through what seemed like a thousand times, but this time it was different. My tears glistened in the soft votive candlelight. My vision was a kaleidoscope of colors. I could see them sparkling, "rose colored glasses."
We reached Mistress Bergenia’s office doors and the three of us broke out in laugher as we recalled the first time we met. It had been Christy and Cathy on the walls, this time there were two new girls I had not seen. One was crying hard and the other had a serene smile on her face.
Smiling I stepped in front of the one who was crying. "Why are you here?" I asked.
"Because she had me tied to a tree in the garden," was her reply.
"Oh, and you were not permitted to play?"
"No, I was slow doing as she said, and she tied me to the tree.
Mistress Bergenia found us like that, we were to be decorated for some big…"
Cathy moved between us and kissed her on the lips, cutting off the remainder of her words. As Cathy backed up from the one hanging, she said, "Enough talk, she's here and you know what's required, Baby. Do so. Mistress Bergenia will be waiting for you."
Yes, I remembered what was proper protocol; I was the one to see Mistress Bergenia, so I was required to bring one of them to the "point of orgasm" before entering her office I glanced over at the other one as she winked. "Cathy, are you the cause of that smile?"
Cathy half laughed, half snorted. "You know me too well, Baby."
Giggling at the knowledge that Cathy could not pass up a bound blonde, I moved back to the crying brunette and took her breast into my mouth. The familiar feeling of nipple bound by latex wax brought a warm rush between my legs and I savored the memories it brought me.
Christy tugged down on the leash and I dropped to my knees. Quickly I took her clit between my lips and began working it hard. In moments I could smell her arousal. I released it just as I felt her thigh muscles tighten on my cheek.
"I see you have not lost your touch, Baby," Christy commented as she tugged again on the leash and Cathy opened the double doors wide.
Rising we three walked into what I considered the holy sanctum of the Academy. Here I had always felt safe. Zack had given me over to Mistress Bergenia here. Mistress Bergenia had nurtured me here. I had learned so much from her. She had given me into Master's care here.
I saw her at the desk and rushed forward to meet her, as tears of joy and sorrow streamed down my cheeks.
She rose as we entered, coming to stand in front of her desk. The three of us took position.
She walked around me, Her familiar crop in hand. "Baby, have you been touching yourself again?" I blushed bright red. She knew me too well, as well as Master.
"Yes, Mistress Bergenia."
Tapping me on each nipple once, then twice on my clit with the crop, she said, "Well, then we will just have to leave the sleeve on for now." Her arms circled and drew me to her, my and face rested in her more than ample cleavage. "It’s so good to see you my little one."
I whispered back that I too had missed Her.
The door opened as she held me close. "Go with the girls and we shall join you shortly." I tried to move out of her arms thinking she was telling me to go, but I was held fast to her chest. She didn't release me till the door closed. She stepped back and leaned against her desk. "How has the year been, Baby? Are you happy with your Master? I heard there is another there now, too."
I know my faced beamed when I answered, "Oh yes, Mistress Bergenia, he is all I could ever ask for in a master. Kitten is a love and brings him much joy. I am very happy."
"I hear a 'but' in there, Baby, tell me why."
Letting out a sigh, I lowered my head and the crop came up under my chin. Baby, you know the rules. Look me in the eyes when you answer a direct question."
"That's it Mistress Bergenia. I know the rules, but lately I seem to be breaking one after the other."
A knowing smile crossed Her beautiful face. "Baby’s cry for attention. So you have been feeling some strain with Kitten there after all. It's natural to feel unsure and act out. Your Master and I have had a few conversations about you over the past year." She laughed. "No need to look surprised. Did you think I would give you away without making sure all was well during that time? I warned your Master you might react that way when he called to tell me he had been given a slave. Why the tears baby?"
I didn't realize I was crying and I sniffled to compose myself before speaking. "Until today, Master had never told me in words how he felt about me, Mistress Bergenia. I knew He cared, but…"
"There was another there. Yes, Baby, I know. You do know why he brought you here today?"
"I believe so, Mistress Bergenia. Up until we arrived I would have told you he was returning me." A really big smile covered my face as I continued, "But on the way in, he told me he loved me for the very first time. So I'm hoping we're here to sign the papers to make me his permanently."
"Yes, signing of the papers is why you're here. He wants to do it right. There will be a ceremony as soon as the rest of the guests arrive. It’s scheduled for noon. You'll go now and get ready." She once again took me in her arms and held me close. With one last squeeze and kiss on the forehead she released me, and the doors opened again. "Girls, take Baby to get ready. Make sure she eats something, she was upset this morning and hasn't eaten."
Giggling at the joy I was feeling, I had to shake my head. She knew me so well; eating wasn't even on the list of things I had thought about this morning.
