pleasure either. I needed relief of some kind. My pussy began to pulse as I was recalling the adrenaline rush I felt when Zack told me about the Academy.
It was the sort of heady feeling you get when you're about to jump headfirst into an icy cold river during the polar bear swim. I had gone numb. It was time to put my money where my mouth was.
I called my service and told them it'd be three months instead of one that I would be away and Zack would be calling with a number for emergencies only.
On an overcast Friday in September, Zack picked me up in the wee hours of the morning and we drove northwest for about four hours. We stopped at a diner a little after noon. He kept a running conversation going on everything but what I was about to do.
We were seated in a booth when he said, 'This is it, Baby. If you have doubts about what you're going to do, you need to tell me now. Once inside the Academy's gates, there's no coming out for three months. You want to do this, right? Do you have any questions, Baby?'
I was going to be a subbie for three months, have Ones tell me what to do and when to do it. I could do that for three months. In my mind it sounded almost like boot camp. Oh, how little did I know about what I was getting into, how much I had to learn.
'Zack, what will I be doing?'
He gave me a gentle smile. 'You remember what you read in Anna Rice’s books?'
'Yes'
'Similar to that but not.'
Great. That told me a whole lot and nothing at the same time.
'Baby, do you trust me?'
'Of course, Zack.'
'You know I would never put you in harm's way?'
'Of course, Zack'
'Good girl. You'll be taught to please in every way. You'll learn to be pleased in every way. Just go with the flow, Baby, and experience. At no time will you be in any danger of being permanently damaged. Mistress Bergenia is the Head Mistress and a very dear friend of mine. Her Academy is one of the very best for producing ponies, subbies and slaves of all shapes and sizes.'
I wanted a cigarette, now. Zack had been bugging me to quit smoking; that and coffee were the last of my vises. I did fine for a few days then puff, I was smoking again. He said that true subbies were strong people and I was one. Why was I letting them control me, did I respect them? I wanted a cigarette, now…
CHAPTER 14
We reached the end of the road, and looming in front of the car was a rather awe inspiring set of iron gates. In the center of the filigree on each was a disk with ASS in gold letters. I glanced at Zack as he rolled down the window,
'It stands for The Academy for Subbies and Slaves.'
'Oh', I said with a giggle.
'Baby, this is it, you’re last change to back out. Once we're inside and the gates close you're committed for three months. Are you sure you want to do this.'
'Yes, Zack I am sure.'
With that he pushed the button on the mic and a voice asked for his name. The gates swung open wide and down the oak lined drive we went. The canopy of leaves blocked out the noonday sun. Flickers of lawn flashed between tree trunks.
We approached a split in the road where there was a fountain. The watered ringed it, shooting upward into the middle. It slowly lowered to reveal a larger then life statue of two people, one on his knees, his head bowed in submission, the other standing over him, one hand on his head and the other holding a coiled whip. We circled to the right of the fountain, catching only a glimpse of the house before coming to a stop under an awning. Two people came down the ramp from the front door. Both were in loin clothes only. She had dark black hair that hung just below her shoulders and he was a dusty blonde. They smiled as they approached the car.
'Baby.' I almost jumped out of my skin when Zack whispered my name, whipping my head around to stare at him. 'Open the glove box please,' I fumbled for the latch and finally got it opened. Nestled in it was my collar, the one Zack had used on me since the very first time we were together. 'Hand it to me, Baby.'
With leaden fingers I took up the collar, never before had it felt so heavy, so solid. I wanted to cling to it, my lifeline.
Zack slipped it around my neck and fastened it. 'Strip, Baby.' Without hesitation I reached for the zipper in front and slipped off the top. The two outside had stopped short of opening my door. Both remained where they were. I lifted off the seat and slid out of the pants. Folding both I handed them to Zack and he laid them on the back seat.
'Show me what you've learned, Baby,' he said as he shifted a bit toward me and I undid his pants. Pulling out his cock, my mouth went down on him, taking him all the way in and gagging just a little when he rose to meet me.
I sucked and licked and caressed him, as I knew he enjoyed and I tasted his juices in my mouth when he came. I swallowed it all down and licked every nock and cranny as he pulled out of my mouth. I didn't want to let go. This would be the last time for us for a while, if not forever. I knew he wanted me to go on this journey without him, and I knew I had to do it for both of us.
Reaching for my hand, Zack brought it to his lips and kissed my palm. He stroked it with his thumb. 'Baby, this is it the next stage of your life. Take it, embrace it, be it.' His other hand cupped my chin. 'You are my last, Baby, my crowning glory. If I were twenty years younger I wouldn't be letting you go. Mistress Bergenia will be here to help you, but don't expect special treatment. You've learned a lot in the last two years, but you have far to go before you're the submissive I know you can be.'
'Yes, Master,' I said as he kissed my forehead.
'Come, Baby, let's go in.'
I moved to get out of the car to come around to open his door, but the female door person was there already. Zack reached my side and attached the leash to my collar.
'Crawl, Baby.' I dropped to all fours and crawled up the ramp to the interior of the house. The plush carpet was easy on my knees.
As we entered the foyer, a lady approached Zack and threw Her arms around him.
'It’s about time you got your ass back here you old goat,' she said and she continued to hug him. 'Your visits have gotten to be few and far between.'
'I know, Bergenia, but health problems are the only things that have kept me from your side.'
'Oh, don’t give me that line. It looks like this one,' she placed her hand on top of my bowed head, 'might have had something to do with it also.'
'Yes, Baby has kept me very busy over the last two years.' Zack, too, patted the top of my head as they continued to hold each other.
She stepped back from his embrace and he scooped me up into his arms and held me close, whispering, 'Make me proud, Baby. Remember, you represent me here.' With that his hand slipped to my collar.
Tears streamed down my face; I did not want him to take it off. I was his. I didn't want to leave him. As his collar was removed another took its place. He stepped back.
'Go with Janice, Baby. You have a bit of paper work to fill out as well as a physical. I won't let Zack leave before you have completed them. You'll see him before he goes.' Handing me a tissue Mistress Bergenia finished with, 'Now dry your eyes and take care of business. You don’t want Zack to think you don't wish to stay with us, do you?'
I looked at Zack, his eyes, too, were a little misty. I nodded and said, 'No, ma’am, this is where I need to be.'
Janice gave a slight tug on the leash and I followed her out of the room.
