Aubreys Playground

:Eighteen:

Aubrey had spent the rest of his night tossing and turning, after losing his battle with climax control in self-pleasuring himself once leaving Lori he began fighting the urge to not go back into her room. He moved from one side of his bed to other, he wanted more of her but knew if he didn't hold tight to his original training plan he'd be displaying weakness as well as his inability to get himself under control and that was the last thing a sub like Lori needed to see and or know.

Aubrey tossed his legs over the edge of his bed and placed his feet to floor, he sighed and ran both hands down the top of his head, he was finally able to fall asleep around 5am only to naturally wake up at 8am, the sun peaked through any crack in his curtains that it could, he walked into the bathroom to release himself, the usual way he got rid of his morning wood but this time around thoughts of Lori in general kept him stiffer than he wanted and needed to be, he sighed again leaning further over the toilet. He stepped to the sink doing his usual morning routine, then made his way to his closet, he usually had the pleasure of roaming freely in his pajama bottoms but knew today would be different, he pulled a pair of black briefs up to his waist then a pair of black sweats, sitting them inches below his boxers elastic band. He knew it would offer a little help masking whenever he did become erect.

He picked up the small black box from his nightstand and made his way across the hall to Lori. He quietly pushed open a door, her body still swallowed up by a sea of pillows and blankets, the room was much colder than he remembered, at some point she must have lowered the temperature, he walked over to the edge she was closets to and reached over to push her ruffled hair from her face, she let out a small moan but remained motionless.

"Babygirl." He leaned over more.

"Hmmm...."

"Wake up."

"Mmhhmmm..." her eyes still closed as she unconsciously replied back. Her body movements were subtle under the thick comforter her legs elongated as she rolled onto her back, her arms raised over her head she stretched out finally opening her eyes, she sat up sleepily but smiled, her hair completely shuffled around her head forgetting to tie it up. Aubrey's smirk was cocky, he had seen this very look on a woman many times before, she looked like a woman who fell soundless asleep after receiving a much-needed orgasm, not just cumming, but truly climaxing only to wake up the next morning in a great mood."Why are you laughing?...sir."

"No reason." He replied still laughing. "Come closer to me, sit on your knees for me." She complied scooting her body to the edge the covers dropped from her body revealing she was still naked, his eyes held steady below her neck, then below her waist, he licked then bit at his bottom lip, he only told her what he would be doing with her every day but made sure she had no clue what time it would happen, his d**k was growing stiff again as he looked down below her belly button, it wasn't even 8:45 yet and he was trying his hardest to not forgo the whole day and eat her out now. Aubrey cleared his throat and placed his left knee to the bed. "This belongs to you. With your requests and my agreements, you will wear this at all times when you are with me, when you get here on Friday the first thing you do is, place this around your neck and the last thing you do on Sunday before you leave is, take it off your neck. It will stay here in this house on that nightstand. Do you understand?"

He knew she would sign the contract and already had a collar made up for her.

Lori gave a coy smile as she looked up at him. "Yes... sir!" She quickly added smirking. Her eyes were back to giving him that look, the sun had made its way into her room as well and her eyes went from a hazel to a clear honey, that feeling was raising to his lower abdomen, he clenched his teeth as he paused from placing the custom collar around her neck to stare at her. "What's wrong?"

He sniffed and shook his head. "Nothing. He licked his lips again and raised the collar to her neck. "The necklace you will wear in public when you are with me or without me will be here next weekend waiting on you, that one you will take back and forth with you. Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir." She nodded.

"Good girl." He grabbed her face lightly tucking his fingers behind her neck and placing his thumbs to her cheeks. "I want you to get dressed... comfortably, as if you were to lounge around your house on a Saturday, then I want you to come down and meet me in the main kitchen. Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir!"

"Good girl." He released her face and began walking towards the door.

"Wait I don't know where the main kitchen is!?" She yelled to him. "There's more than one kitchen!?" She said again connecting more dots.

"You'll find it." He yelled back closing the door behind him.

"Shit..." she stood up on the bed and hopped down making her way into the bathroom she looked to admire the new jewelry around her neck, two rows of several small diamonds set in solid gold lined her neck, not too tight and not too loose, her initials molded out of solid gold hung from the front of it, she leaned in closer to the mirror lifting and touching the loose letters, she frowned as she noticed the back of them. Lori reached back and unhooked the clasp and pulled the collar from her neck, flipping it over 'Property of' engraved in the L and 'ADG' engraved in the H. "ADG... Drake." She mumbled to herself after remembering his middle name.

Lori stepped out her room and down the hall passing the elevator she willingly traveled down three flights of steps she turned and looked back up at them. "Yeah, we'll stick with going down." She spoke openly to herself.

The smell of food being cooked came from every direction, she frowned looking to her right, she remembered that was towards the front door then to her left, towards the elevator. She turned to her right, the smell of food got stronger, a large walkway branched off as she entered a whole different part of the house, the theme of high ceilings and matching long bay windows carried throughout the house, the marble floor shifted to carpet in a large open family room to her left, more than likely where everyone sat, a dark sectional couch lined the length of the room making corner pockets, the large flat screen tv that she was almost certain had to be carried and put in by multiple men, to her right another family room yet seemed to be much more off-limits, glass tables, white furniture, expensive artwork, a large polished black grand piano, for sure a room you weren't allowed in.

She continued down the open hall, a small man-made lake caught her attention through the windows a portion of what looked to be a golf course further beyond it, she dragged her fingers across the thick marble column as she passed it and eased her way into the very large kitchen. Lori stared at the images that permanently covered the whole top of Aubrey's back. A bird, symbols, a famous long gone singer, more faces of who she assumed to be family, another owl only this owl resembled the one she seen on all his casual clothing, jewelry, and even cufflinks, a cities landmark on the muscle of the back of his arm she squinted trying to make out the tower-like image.

"I knew you'd find it." He said, his back still turned as he continued what he was doing. "Come sit."

Lori stepped further into the kitchen and sat down in one of the high stools behind the large center island. She remained quiet and sat still with her hands in her lap. Aubrey frowned as he cracked another egg, he looked over his shoulder Lori's eyes looking down at her hands, she sat casually simply waiting for him to tell her what to do, he placed his palms to the counter and sighed, he closed his eyes at the smothering feeling that overcame him, with any other sub he would have been fine with her sitting there silently as he went about his business around her, he would have told her that's what he wanted, but not with Lori, he missed her outside of her submissiveness, her regular conversation, her unexpected questions, her opinions and thoughts on certain things he particularly found interesting himself.

"Come here." He demanded. Lori stood up, walked around the island and stood next to him.

"Yes, sir."

He sighed and looked down at her for several seconds, he reached for the collar around her neck and unclasped it. "From now on, when I take this off your neck I want you to have conversations with me the way you did before you signed the contract, I want you to speak to me about whatever you'd like, you may ask me whatever questions you'd like, we will speak about anything. You can touch me and interact with me. Only when I put this back on will you go back to being a submissive. Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir."

"No calling me that when this is off."

"Ok!" She said smiling. Lori leaned against the counter looking down as he placed the collar down and grabbed another egg. "Anything!?" She asked to make sure.

"Anything." He assured her.

"Ok so, you said your subs know about one another but are not allowed to communicate with one another during the duration of their contract. Why is that?"

Aubrey stopped cracking eggs as soon as her question started, he laughed and shook his head. "I should have known..."

"Awww come on, Aubrey! You said anything!"

He immediately looked back over at her upon her saying his name, he hadn't heard her say it in a while and the way she said it pulled at his heart, as simple as it was, it was missed. "Yeah, I did. I did say anything." He began beating the bowl of eggs with a fork as he tried to clear his mind of the particular feelings he was noticing with Lori. "Uh, Yeah you all do know about one another and that is on purpose. I don't allow you all to interact because I don't want jealousy and bickering to form amongst my subs."

"Oh? Jealousy you say? You're that good!?" She playfully eyed him.

Aubrey laughed as he stepped over to the stove and poured the eggs into a hot nonstick frying pan. "I've had situations... occur, when my subs have discussed with one another what our sessions were like and that's when the 'He lets me do this!" and 'He lets me touch him more than you.' stuff started, so I cut all interactions off with them."

"Well s**t," Lori said pressing her lips together nodding her head, impresses. Aubrey looked over at her and shook his head. "But if they can't interact with one another and you have this safety rule of not stepping outside of any of your subs, what do you do when you want two women? You don't ever get that urge for a threesome!?" She stepped behind him and pressed her chest to his back playfully running her hands up and down his chest and stomach. His first instinct was to not stop her, he remained calm allowing her to touch on him playfully. "Two women! Four hands! 20 fingers all gripping and clawing at you! Aubrey! Over here! No, Aubrey over here!" She then placed her palms to his pecs and squeezed them twice.

"I'm really starting to rethink this whole collar thing now..." He replied back as he shook his head and reached for a serving plate and began scooping the scrambled eggs onto it. Lori laid her head against his back and let out a heavy laugh that filled the kitchen. She stepped from behind him a followed him to the table that sat in the far right corner of the kitchen properly placed next to three long windows that displayed a view of a very large manicured rose garden, she sat down in one of the chairs. "I do get that urge and I do satisfy it." He finally replied as he leaned beside her and placed the plate on the table he then placed a kiss to her exposed shoulder and walked around to the other side and sat down across from her.

"But how!? All these rules!" She sat up in the chair on her knees giving her extra height and reach placing her elbows to the table and grabbing for the large bowl of mixed fruit.

"I have twins."

Lori stopped all activity and looked up at him in shook, Aubrey nonchalantly began scooping breakfast food onto his plate. She pressed her lips together collecting her thoughts. "You really got this s**t all figured out..."

"Of course."

"Nice!" She was impressed. "What day do you get the twins?"

"Tuesday."

"TWIN TUESDAY!?" She stretched her arms to either side. Her loosely fitting shirt rose higher up her torso showing the rest of her stomach as she stood up higher on her knees in the chair. She dropped her arms to her side and the shirt dropped off her shoulder again. "Here I am just trying to make it to Taco Tuesday and you've got a Twin Tuesday! Two on a Tuesday!" She placed a piece of cut watermelon in her mouth. "Twuesday!" She yelled out.

Amusement came over Aubrey's face as he looked over at her. "Twuesday!?"

"Yes, Twuesday!"

"Are you proud of yourself?" He asked seriously.

Lori eyed him as she broke off a piece of her turkey bacon. "I am." She said confidently. "I think I should be rewarded, actually, because I don't think any of your other subs came up with Twuesday!"

"I thought we talked about that bratty behavior?" Aubrey asked as he picked up food with his fork and placed it in his mouth.

"I don't have the collar on, I can be a brat!"

"Oh, really? That's what you got out of that?"

"Yup!"

"Hmmm ok, I'll handle that behavior when we put the collar back then." He said with a malicious grin and he looked across the table at her, Lori met his gaze and chewed the inside of her cheek with a coy expression on her face.

"You're a good cook, who taught you?"

"Thank you. My mom mostly and my first ex... taught me a lil bit."

Lori frowned. "The ex that got you into the lifestyle?" She asked he nodded yes with a mouth full of food. "Oh, do you still talk to her? Like, are you, two friends, still?"

Aubrey swallowed his food then reached for the large glass of orange juice, he took in enough to clear his mouth. "Uh, we're cool, acquaintance more so now. I see her every now and then... blue moon."

Lori nodded in understanding as she placed another piece of turkey bacon in her mouth. "Why did you two break up?"

"Well, she started to want kids and to be married, that kind of thing and I couldn't offer that so I broke it off, she didn't want to leave and didn't want her too, but... yeah."

"I mean if you didn't want her to leave and she didn't want to leave you, then why break up?"

"Because I'm not that kind of man. I will never hold a woman back from what she deserves or wants to experience just because I don't want it. I'll never drag a woman along with talks about things I don't plan on offering her just to keep her. I'm selfish, very selfish, especially with my women, but I'm not selfish in that way. That is why I tell you it is very important that you speak up and let me know if you no longer feel comfortable, happy, and or safe."

Lori sat silently looking across the table at Aubrey taking in his genuine words and expression. "Right, Yeah I understand." Lori looked down and placed another piece of fruit in her mouth, she really wasn't sure what kind of Man/Dom Aubrey was, every interaction with him was different but made her want to stay and know more. "Did she ever get what she wanted?... you know?..." She asked out of curiosity.

Aubrey looked up and finished chewing his food. "Yeah, she did. She's now married with two kids. She deserves happiness." Lori pressed her lips together and nodded. Aubrey pushed himself from the table and stood up, he walked over to the counter he stood at earlier while cooking them walked back over to the table and stood behind Lori. "I think I need to handle that bratty behavior soon though." He whispered in her ear as he placed the collar back around her neck and clasped it.

"Yes, sir." Lori replied as she felt his arm slide across her chest.

"Good girl."
