"I ONLY WISH TO SERVE"
“I don’t mind submitting.”
Hayley looked at the K’Shaya, interest ratcheting up. She remained calm as always.
“It’s not a problem for you?”
The Prize blushed as he nodded. “I…I never have.”
“He owns you.”
“Yes.”
“Not by your choice.” The slight hesitation piqued Hayley’s interest even more. “You’re talking about a Dom/sub dynamic.”
K’Shaya nodded, still blushing but proud just the same.
“I know D/s is a part of Human psychology as well as many other races.” She tapped her stylus on her datapad. “So you feel comfortable submitting?”
“Y…Yes.”
She was delighted by his rosy blush. What a sweetheart!
“I know you would prefer freedom, but some might find it odd that you would willingly place yourself back into slavery.”
“It’s different.”
“Because…”
“…it would be my choice.”
Hayley nodded in satisfaction. “You’re right, K’Shaya. Dom/sub relationships are entered into freely by both parties, satisfying both partners’ needs. Besides, the sub holds the power.” She winked and K'Shaya blushed but laughed. She could see how K’Shaya could inveigle his Master. Bruce Wayne was a powerful man, but susceptible to beauty and the goodness of heart that she could clearly see in his Prize. Like all good subs, K’Shaya could get what he wanted while happily serving his Dom, which he needed desperately, as much as his Dom needed him to serve.
“I…did some research on it. D/s is strictly forbidden.”
“Yes. Society frowns on freemen even playing at D/s. Oh, bondage games in the bedroom are all right, but nothing in public, and no living a D/s lifestyle. People figure with bedslaves so freely available, it’s redundant. Not to mention an erosion of social norms.”
“They don’t understand Human nature,” the Prize said quietly.
“No, they don’t.” Impressed, Hayley said, “Mr. Wayne is clearly of the intelligent companion school.” At the slave’s inquiring look she explained, “Some Masters prefer beautiful bodies but empty heads. Others want intellectual as well as physical stimulation.”
“Ah, yes, Master Bruce does want companionship.”
“It looks like you fill that role admirably.” The shy smile dazzled Hayley. “So you’re happy with this relationship?”
“I am.”
“Good.” Hayley wrote on her pad. “It makes things easier.”
Her patient nodded. Bruce Wayne had told her that she had guessed correctly about what had happened during the kidnapping. She was sorry to be right but not surprised.
"Your Master believes in Abolition."
”He does."
"That must help you, too."
"It does." He laughed. "Sorry for the short answers."
She smiled. "Perfectly all right." She scribbled a note. "K'Shaya, would you like to talk about what happened in the cabin?"
He stiffened. "I..."
"Talking about it will help you get past it."
He looked down, fingers entwining. “He…Edmund…had me tied to the bed…I woke up naked and …and chained…to the bed…he…” The Prize grabbed a tissue, twisting it around and around. “He made it clear what he and his sons were going to do to me. And he...” The Prize swallowed, shaking slightly. “He threatened me with a knife…said if I didn’t suck him off…I’d lose my eye.”
“So you did it.”
“Yes.” His voice was so soft that Hayley could barely hear it.
“You told your Master about it.”
“I did.”
”He didn’t reject you.”
“Oh, no! Quite the contrary.”
“That’s good.” Hayley continued rocking. “Do you think you failed him?”
“I thought…I should have fought harder.”
“You would have lost your eye.”
“Yes.”
“He prefers you whole, K’Shaya.”
“And violated?”
“He knows what happened in the slavers’ camp, the auction hall, and in that cabin. He knows none of it’s your fault.” She stopped rocking. “Don’t be so hard on yourself, K’Shaya.”
He looked up, and she swore she could see his eyes even behind those dark glasses.
“I only wish to serve.”
Hayley kept her expression neutral. She felt that the Prize’s statement was something more than slave for Master, but kept it to herself.
If it was anything more, she would not reveal it.

--Happy dance
Date: 2009-12-02 04:24 am (UTC)If you've seen The Ugly Truth, there is a dance that Kathryn Heigl does when she doesn't think anyone is looking and is pleased because this guy she's interested in just asked her out or kissed her or whatever....
If you know what I am talking about, that's the dance I did when I saw your post!!!!!
I love that we are starting to get more of Clark's personality coming to the surface and not just a passive side of him as slave. I think he's going to be more than an intellectual challenge and equal to Bruce. When the time comes that Clark has his Kryptonian strength and invulnerability, he will still be able to take the Sub persona. But just like Hayley said, the Sub holds the power. I can see Clark being submissive to Bruce even when they will be equals because it doesn't make him less to allow Bruce the upper D hand. Do you agree? He seems like someone who is confident in who he is and can give someone what they need without giving up anything of himself. I hope I'm making myself clear.
On the other hand, it will be interesting to see how you handle the change in their relationship. How will Clark be able to assume his Kal-El persona if he is a slave of Bruce Wayne? I am confident you have that already sketched out in your outlines.
Love the story. Keep em coming.

Glad to make you happy, Eva! :)

His personality is definitely peeking out, though of course even as a slave his sweetness and kindness are always there. :)
When the time comes that Clark has his Kryptonian strength and invulnerability, he will still be able to take the Sub persona. But just like Hayley said, the Sub holds the power.

PERFECTLY clear! I see Clark even in 'our' universe as a sub. That doesn't mean he's a passive wimp. It means he has a deep-seated need to serve, and would happily take the sub role in a Dom/sub relationship.
And that's a good thing. Bruce needs to channel his inner Dom in order to survive as a non-powered hero while Clark has always had to practice restraint due to his powers. He can hurt people without even thinking about it if he's not careful. A sub personality would be the best kind for a supremely superpowered person.
Clark will be learning more about the nature of the pleasure slave in the next arc while Bruce learns more about his Master role while loving each other like crazy! ;)
On the other hand, it will be interesting to see how you handle the change in their relationship. How will Clark be able to assume his Kal-El persona if he is a slave of Bruce Wayne? I am confident you have that already sketched out in your outlines.
Oh, yes! There will have to be major adjustments made, and once Clark is ready to become Superman, he'll be learning a lot more about his role in relation to Bruce. It is definitely plotted out! ;)
Love the story. Keep em coming.

Thank you kindly, Eva! :)

Date: 2009-12-02 06:34 am (UTC)Thank the Gods for Hayley. Glad to see she helps Clark working through his insecurities, the poor dear really needs that.
Clark's expression about serving, well that's him. Not the much the "on thy knees" part but the wish to help others to serve and protect them. Because he has the powers to do so. That lead him to Actium and brought him into this life as a slave.
Admirable plotting,bradygirl. :-)
Another great chapter in the healing process of the Sol-Var, thank you.
The next arc sound interesting, they go off planet, and it gets kinky if memory serves right....can't wait to read it. :-)
But first Clark has some more healing to do with the help of the wonderful Hayley.
I hope her datapad won't fall into the wrong hands.

Clark has always had a need to serve. It's just so much a part of him.

You're welcome! :)

She is! Her twin Harley deals with criminal minds and she deals with slave minds. Interesting! :)

Date: 2009-12-02 05:15 pm (UTC)I’m enjoying these sessions. You can really see the inner Clark shining through. The “I only wish to serve” comment really spoke volumes and it was nice to see Hayley pick up on it.
I think it’s cute that Clark would be willing to be a sub to Bruce no matter what even if he were free because it would be his choice. It makes me want to cuddle him all the more. I think Clark will be back to himself in no time with her help. GREAT chapter!!!

As a warning and in case you were wondering why I made such a comment. I'll probably be embarrassed after I have a sleep. I'll just say thank you for your stories. I really mean that sincerely.

Thought you might enjoy this. ;)
D/s relationships fascinate me. The thought that the sub holds the power just tickles me no end! :)
The whole dynamic is fluid and within certain boundaries, but each couple chooses what's acceptable.
I really do believe that Clark's a natural sub.
Have you read
