I woke up on Wednesday morning refreshed. My mind raced back to the day before, the night before, and realized it must have been the mind blowing fist fucking orgasm I had. My head fell back on the pillow as I took a deep breath. Everything that had happened recently seemed overwhelming. The blackmail, the riskiness in class, the awkwardness and the changes with Emma and Sam. It was all just coming so quickly and I felt like I needed a break. The bad news was I couldn't have one right now, I had to go to work, I had to be an adult for my kids, and worst of all I had to do what the blackmailer wanted.
I laid there for a few more minutes thinking about everything. I couldn't believe how turned on I had been lately, how much I had loved risking everything in class, and how hard I had been getting off. But as my mind raced over everything things started coming up that weren't as good. If I got caught at school how would I support Emma and Sam? I couldn't teach anymore, and we would have to move for sure, how would this affect my kids life? And even our home life had changed, Emma and Sam were now free to wear and be who they wanted, and so was I, I guess, and this wasn't bad, but it was a change from where we had been, and it was all because of the blackmailer. My life was changing in ways that I wasn't expecting from the blackmail, and I think that was what bothered me the most. It was affecting everything, not just me, and that was not good. With some increased resolve I got out of bed and headed for the shower.
I exited the bathroom in my robe and opened my laptop while standing. A new e-mail.
Subject: DON'T FORGET THE CAMERA TODAY!
That was it, one e-mail, one reminder. "Fuck" I said to myself as I closed my laptop again. I had to remember to pick up the stupid webcam today sometime, there was no way that I wanted to get "punished" again, who knows what the fucker would want me to do this time.
I knew I had to wear a skirt to class today, that was the one request. My desire to fight back was returning, and even though I knew I had to follow the rules, I didn't have to do anything beyond them. It would probably piss them off, but I didn't care, I had made up my mind.
I rummaged through my closet looking for a skirt, something sexier than usual, but nothing crazy of course. I pulled out a dark blue skirt that I knew ended about 4 inches above my knees, it was slightly pleated and light and flowy. I actually loved this skirt, but never intended for it to be worn to school. Even though this was definitely pushing the boundaries of what I would wear to class usually, I knew exactly how I was going to cover myself up. On top I wore a loose high quality t-shirt something I had worn before that showed off exactly nothing. On top of this I wore a long cardigan that flowed down below my knees, allowing my skirt only to be seen from the very front. And as a final touch of defiance, a pair of flat black shoes. I looked as comfortable as I could, and even though I didn't dress unsexy, it was 100% a step down from the last few days. I smiled at myself in the mirror, "Fuck you," I said thinking of the blackmailer.
I made breakfast for Sam and Emma while I smiled to myself, happy with my decision to not give in to the blackmailer. Eventually they arrived in the kitchen and sat down. Sam was back to his regular tight shirt and jeans, and Emma seemed to be taking every chance she had to dress sexier with her new freedom, today wearing a pair of cutoff jean shorts and a black tank top. If she liked it, it was OK with me. I said nothing and sat down.
We all finished our food with just a little small talk for flavouring and headed out the door. The three of us sat in the car as I drove us to school, all silent, all in our own minds. It was a quiet ride, but somehow not an awkward ride. I pulled into the parking lot, we all got out and said our goodbyes.
As I headed to my first class I felt in charge, powerful, unable to be beaten, there was no way the blackmailer was going to get the better of me today, I had a plan, and I wasn't going to break. I left my phone in the car, removing one way for the blackmailer to get to me. I brought my laptop with me, but I was determined not to open it during the day. Today was a day where I was in control.
The first couple of classes went by as usual. My skirt was shorter, but the sweater seemed to dissuade onlookers from really noticing. My lunch period was next, I went to the teachers lounge, ate my lunch and chatted with some of the other teachers, the bottom line was I was nowhere near my laptop, or the classroom. The rest of the day passed by and before I knew it I was done, I had done it, I didn't interact with the blackmailer, and I didn't masturbate in class. The best thing was I fulfilled his task, I wore a shorter skirt. Done. What could they possibly say?
Sam and Emma both had something going on after school, a club, or something, regardless I didn't have to drive them home. It worked out well since it meant I could go and purchase the webcam I needed to get. I drove the Bestbuy, grabbed the camera and went home. Everything just seemed easier today.
When I finally got home I went upstairs and had a shower, my plan was to wait and not check my e-mail until I was ready, not when I was forced too. I felt confident with this decision, I felt in control. The shower seemed to wash away any other worries I had. I dried off, put on a pair of comfy panties, sweats and a hoodie. "Fuck you" I said as I picked up my laptop and walked downstairs.
I poured myself a glass of wine, a little early, but it was what I needed, I sat myself down on the couch, my legs and bare feet tucked under me, and I opened my laptop. I was almost certain there would be a long list of angry e-mails threatening me, but again I was confident, I fulfilled my task. Could I reason with a blackmailer? I didn't know, but I had to control my life, and this was my chance. I clicked and looked at my e-mails.
To my surprise there weren't as many as I thought.
Subject: NICE SKIRT, BUT LOSE THE SWEATER
Subject: SLUT YOU BETTER DO WHAT I SAY!
And then nothing for hours, this is what was surprising.
Subject: YOU THINK YOU WON?
Subject: MAYBE YOU DID WHAT I SAID, BUT NOW I'M GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE THINGS HARDER
Subject: YOU DID THIS TO YOURSELF SLUT
Another hour of no e-mails and then:
Subject: DID YOU GET THE CAMERA SLUT?
"Yes" I said out loud knowing that whoever the blackmailer was could hear me, or would hear me, or however it worked. I waited a few minutes for a response but nothing came, I closed my laptop and watched an episode of Grey's Anatomy, drinking my wine and relaxing for what seemed like the first time in forever.
Sam and Emma both returned home shortly after and went up to their rooms leaving me to continue my episode in peace. When it finally ended I checked my e-mail again and there was finally a response.
Subject: DO AS I TELL YOU
Subject: CONNECT THE WEBCAM TO YOUR COMPUTER AND SET IT UP
Subject: ONCE DONE DISCONNECT IT
Subject: AND PLACE IT IN YOUR LIVING ROOM WHERE I CAN SEE EVERYTHING ON THAT FLOOR
