Aubreys Playground

:Sixteen:

Lori followed Aubrey in silence walking back into a world of marble floors and columns, gold and black accents, she found herself further into the house, going the opposite way of the locked front doors. Aubrey stopped at the staircase and looked up, Lori frowned at him then leaned to look up the spiraling set of steps herself, a second and third floor branched off to the left and right, Lori arched her right eyebrow as she looked at the back of his head silently pleading he wasn't thinking about walking up the flights. Lori wasn't even 20 minutes into being his sub before she was thinking about taking a loss for the team, she shook her head and mentally prepared herself for whatever punishment he would more than likely give her because if it involved walking those steps her reply was going to be a smooth "no sir."

He took several more steps forward then stopped again and pushed a button located on the wall at the end of the hallway, Lori remained still her heels inches from the first step as she looked down the hall at him, the bell of an elevator sounded and doors slid open, he watched her then grinned. "Come on." He ordered and stepped onto the elevator. Lori let out a long sigh of relief and began walking towards the elevator and stepped on. "You thought I was going to make you walk?" He said knowingly.

"Yes, sir." She nervously chuckled.

Aubrey stepped behind her, the front of his body touching the back of hers, he slid his right arm around her waist and pressed his palm flat against her stomach, she grew tense at his touch, not expecting it. He was testing her reflexes and as bad as she wanted to touch his arm even place her small hand over the back of his, she was not given permission to do so, her arm continued to dangle at her side. He smiled and bit at his bottom lip admiring her self control, he began to think training her would not take as long as he planned out, considering how easy she fell back into submission, her knowledge and once being apart of the lifestyle was a plus, he didn't have to remind her of simple things, things that many people took for granted, like touching someone, or the pleasure of sleeping next to someone. He did however questioned her control when it came to s****l intercourse.

"You may hold my hand." He rewarded her as he stepped from behind her. Lori looked down at his palm then back up at him. He pressed his lips together noticing her hesitation even after given permission, he locked it away as a concern he would bring up later. She cautiously grabbed his hand and interlocked her fingers with his, following behind him out the elevator and onto a carpeted floor. Only three rooms occupied the third floor of his home, the only three rooms that mattered. "That's my room." She looked to her left, down the hallway two black closed double doors met her wondering eyes. "That's your room." She looked to her right seeing two identical doors similar to his bedroom. "And that's the Playground." He pointed straight ahead. A single black door sat several feet directly in front of her.

Lori's lips parted, her mouth dried, she looked down at the handle of the door a locking mechanism that required permission to enter and more than likely Aubrey was the only one with the code. She didn't need for him to explain what was behind the door, the door itself was intimidating of all colors why did it need to be a solid jet black, white might of been a more welcoming shade, or simply leaving the wood its natural color. Aubrey turned his head and looked down at her, more than likely she didn't realize he could visibly see her chest rise and fall or hear how deeply she was breathing, her eyes fixated on the door, her mind wondering a mile a minute. It would continue wondering until Aubrey decided to lead her through that door.

He began pulling her to the right and down the hall, she kept her eyes on the single door until it forced her to turn her head and look back at it. He let go of her hand and pushed open the double doors to her new bedroom that she would occupy tonight, tomorrow and till Sunday evening as well as the weekends to come. She remained at his side wide-eyed and silent looking around the room that was the size of a one-bedroom apartment, Aubrey smiled again noticing her submission.

"Go ahead."

Lori stepped into the room, the high ceilings formed a triangle, a solid gold and crystal chandelier hung from the point in the center of the room, the walls were white, extremely white, so white she had to think if she ever seen walls that white, the windows were larger than normal not from ceiling to floor but you for sure needed a ladder to change the curtains, the carpet seemed untouched like it was just put in that morning, the bed was large enough for her to roll over twice and still not reach the other side. It was bright, feminine, three interchangeable shelving compartments lined the closet walls, an island in the center to house accessories, white marble covered almost every inch of the bathroom touches of pale pink, light grey, and gold swirled throughout it, glass doors left nothing to the imagination for a two-person shower, and a bathtub that she was almost positive was a small jacuzzi.

"Have other subs slept in this room before?... I mean, I know you said they have no reason to be in your house but?...."

Aubrey smirked. "Is that a question to indulge your brattiness or you genuinely want to know?"

"Genuinely want to know, sir."

"No, you are the first person to occupy it." He leaned against the doorframe his arms folded across his chest watching her admire the design and layout of the large room. "Come here." She turned around and met his demanding eyes.

"Yes, sir." She replied stepping in front of him.

"This controls everything in the room. The lights, the shades on the windows, the temperature, the remote to the tv." He pulled the white square box from the wall and handed it to her. She looked at the touch screen and noticed all the features. "This one belongs on the wall, there's another one located on that right nightstand." She nodded and placed the control box back to the wall. "I want you to shower but do not get dressed. I want you waiting for me in the center of the bed when I walk into the room. Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir." She nodded.

"You have 20 minutes." Lori nodded again, he stood there staring at her for several seconds, his demeanor had finally softened, his eyes showed a bit of light, his gaze to her was welcoming, she could no longer hear his heavy agitated breathing. He finally stepped back closing the doors behind him.

She reached and turned the metal knobs of the shower and let it casually run, then turned her attention to the linen closet she nosily fished around simply out of curiosity but nothing out of the ordinary caught her eye, she moved on to opening cabinets and drawers wondering if an old sub might have left items behind, she nodded her head side to side in doubt of catching Aubrey in a lie, he was too OCD and germ driven to just leave a room uncleaned after the stay of another woman let alone allow her to leave proof of her to stay behind. She closed the empty drawers and quickly showered knowing she'd eventually have time to enjoy her home away from home, her things were brought up to her and placed at the foot of her bed. She shut off the water and stepped out wrapping the towel around her body and stepped into the room.

"s**t!" She let out as she looked over at Aubrey leaning against the frame of one open door, shirtless and a pair of black pajama bottoms sitting low on his waist. "Has it been more than 20 minutes!? I'm sorry!"

He chuckled. "No, it's been 15, I just felt like watching you."

"Oh..."

Aubrey stepped into the room. "Remove your towel, come here." She hesitated, he had really only seen her breast and granted his fingers made their way between her things a couple of days go he still hadn't really seen what she looked like fully naked.

She inhaled deeply and removed the towel completely and laid it across the bed, she took several unneeded steps to get to him as if her awkward walking was going to make him change his mind. She herself realized she hadn't seen his body and it was way more than she expected, she didn't take him for a man to be inked the way he was, long sleeve dress shirts and sweatshirts covered his whole upper torso since she had met him and the skin that was visible was spotless, a large owl with spread wings covered the whole top portion of his chest, a set of numbers inked down his ribs, small faces and symbols sporadically covered his arms, the closer she got to him the larger he got, his shoulders seemed broader, his arms larger than she remembered, and the hard stomach she felt through his shirt flowed into a V-cut. She stopped in front of him, fully naked her skin still damp he circled her, looking at every inch of flesh.

"No tattoos." He said lifting her right arm with his left.

"No, is that a problem?" she looked up at him, another tattoo had been revealed, a large eye inked under his tricep.

"No, not at all."

"I didn't take you for a man with lots of tattoos."

"There's more and why?"

More? And I don't know? You just seem like you wouldn't want them... like... You want your body to stay clear, clean, untouched."

"Yes, my back is covered. Never heard that one."

"Covered?" She repeated. He nodded but continued checking her naked body out instead of showing off his back.

He squatted down behind her and ran his index finger under her left butt cheek along the back of her thigh, noticing a shapely patch of darker skin, his other hand pressed firmly to her hip for his balance. "Yes, the top of it. I assume this to be a birthmark?" She could feel his warm breath hit her bare skin as he spoke.

"Yes, sir."

He stood up and continued his complete circle around her. "I was going to wait till tomorrow to start any kind of training, but why when we have plenty of time now. We're going to play something I like to call the Trust Game."

"Ok..." She barely spoke over a whisper.

"We are going to play this game for tonight, tomorrow, and Sunday. I assume you've been blindfolded before?"

"Yes, sir."

He smiled. "Then this should be nothing for you."
