The giggling and outright laughing of feminine voices in the hallway outside my apartment was mostly unintelligible. They were clearly amused by what Ann had said to me as she left but their exact thoughts about my being forbidden to masturbate would remain a mystery to me. That didn't make it any better! How could I face them knowing that they knew that Ann wielded such a power over me?
Not that we were friends or even acquaintances. A casual good morning or hi as we met in passing was all that had ever transpired between us. I didn't even know their names, just that they were both very pretty. One was blond and blue eyed, a typical Nordic beauty. The other had jet black hair and surprisingly her eyes were blue too. Her complexion was also fair, my guess was she was Irish. Just the thought of their being privy to my dirty secret bothered me. What were they thinking about me? I lost track of time kneeling, naked and hard in the middle of my sparsely decorated living room. When the phone rang it was well past eleven-thirty.
I answered, wondering who would call this late, "Hello."
"Still hard?"
It was Ann, obviously. Knowing Ann it could have been Carol. She might have called her to brag about her latest adventure. "Yes."
"Does it hurt?"
"A little. Why did you say that with my neighbors right there? Did you do that on purpose?" I think Ann could sense a little anger and maybe hurt in my voice.
"I wanted them to know that your cock belongs to me!"
"Why? Haven't I been faithful to our agreement? Haven't I proven my loyalty to you? Isn't letting Carol know every little thing enough?"
"I'm sorry. Yes you have, Frederick. I guess it's part of my addiction. Think of it this way, everybody has a sex life. Why not talk about it? There is one more thing."
"What?"
"I thought you might like it!"
"Why? What ever made you think that?"
"Didn't you like it when we had phone sex with Carol?"
"I guess."
"You either did or you didn't, Frederick, which is it?"
"OK, yes..., I did."
"And you're still hard now?"
"Yes."
"So, if I'm not mistaken, you've been thinking about what I said and what those girls think and you've been hard ever since I left. Does that sum it up?"
"Yes."
"Yes what?"
"What do you mean?"
"Say it, Frederick, say 'yes, mistress'."
"Yes, mistress."
"Now say, 'my cock is yours and all my cum, Mistress Ann'."
"My cock is yours and all my cum, Mistress Ann."
"One more thing, Frederick!"
"What is that?"
"If I want to share aspects of our relationship that is my prerogative as your mistress, understood?"
"But..."
"This is not negotiable, Frederick."
"Yes, Mistress Ann." I hadn't defined it in my own mind but somehow deep inside I knew I was sexually submissive to this woman. There was nothing she had done that I hadn't enjoyed even when it embarrassed me and I knew I wanted to continue seeing her.
"It's time for bed, Freddy. You should take a cold shower if you need to."
"Yes, mistress."
"Would you like to meet for a late lunch tomorrow, say two o'clock at Tee Jaye's?"
"Yes, mistress."
"If that property over by the campus is still available we can talk about making an offer. Good night, Freddy!"
Ann hung up before I could respond. I did as she suggested. The shower turned from pleasantly warm as I washed to cool and then uncomfortable as the hot water from the small water heater ran out. My cock shriveled and my balls tried to hide. When it was too uncomfortable I got out, dried myself off and went to bed. Not before wiping down the shower walls and cleaning the soap dish though.
Wednesday morning I went to the office and looked up the property Ann was interested in. I prepared a folder with everything we'd need to make an offer and then spent the rest of the time reviewing new listings and making cold calls. When one-thirty rolled around I went to Tee Jaye's. The waitress offered me a table near the front door. I asked for a booth.
She took me to the far side of the dining room. "How's this?"
"Just fine." I agreed as I slid in. "Coffee, black, please."
"Coming right up, sir!"
She brought a menu with the mug of coffee.
"Could I have another menu please. I"m waiting for a client."
"Of course."
Ann arrived as the waitress returned with the second menu. Seeing me she didn't wait for the waitress and joined me in the booth. "Still on the market?" she asked hopefully as she eyed the folder.
"It is but it has only been on the market a few days. If you are serious we should get down to business." We spent the next hour and a half hashing out the details of her offer. Once completed I asked for the bill. "I should get this on the table this afternoon."
"The sooner the better!" Ann was excited about what might be her first investment property. "Carol says she has the photos developed. She wants you to come back for step two. Can you get there by five?"
"Maybe," I replied, "would it hurt if I were a little late?"
"Business first, Fred." Ann responded, "Get there as soon as you can."
Ann and Carol were talking in her office when I arrived. "Ann says she made an offer on a rental property."
"That's right."
"I think I'm ready to take the plunge, could you find some for me to consider?"
"I could, there might be a problem though."
"Why?"
"I'm not sure. I'll ask my broker. You're friends and interested in the same kinds of properties. It might be a conflict of interest on my part."
"That would be a shame."
"Let's see what the broker says." Ann suggested. "We can take it from there."
Carol changed the subject. "I do a lot of work for department stores, Fred. They like pictures featuring their clothing and other merchandise in scenes that are recognizable around the city. This evening I'd like to get some shots featuring tennis equipment. Go in back and see Ashley. She has a tennis outfit for you."
Andy was in back with Ashley. He was already dressed in a white polo shirt and white shorts. He was wearing black Converse All-Stars. I put my hand up like a director framing a shot. "What's wrong with this picture?"
He laughed. "The shoes? Carol doesn't like me to wear the white ones until we get to the location."
