Their rooms were magnificent, marble and glass, cool mosaic stone floors, carved furniture and comfortable cushions, on the tables lay fruit and sweetmeats, and in each bedroom there was a very large divan bed with posts on each corner. All through the sumptuous evening meal acrobats, fire-eaters and jugglers entertained them, and then dancing girls in skimpy transparent costumes performed for them until they retired.

Lord Robert left early next morning, leaving El Zik with Bakka, Yassif's most trusted servant, and the man who had looked after El Zik since his mother's death. Bakka said to El Zik, �Your father has told my master he thinks you are now old enough to see women being made ready to give men pleasure. Yassif has heard there is a boat arriving today with an assortment of white females and if any are suitable I am to buy some and show you how they are trained�. �I doubt it will arrive before midday so this morning I will take you to the house of correction. All first time slaves have to be given the mark of their master but if he only owns one or two or needs something special done to them he sends them here. Slaves who persist in disobedience are sent for corrective punishment and female slaves who fail to please will be marked on their breasts before being sold cheap to low class brothels. I think you will find it interesting and entertaining, but since you can't do this in your country it will prepare you for some of the things you will have to do when you have your own slaves�.

Arriving at the house of correction we were greeted at the gates by a man who Bakka said was his old comrade Philo and they had fought many battles together. Telling Philo who I was and why we were here Philo said, �Things are quiet, I only have four black men to be made into eunuchs, and two white women who failed to please their master�. �One to be whipped but both marked with a B for street use and another white girl is expected any time now; she is to have Marric's first mark�. �It's the females my young master wishes to see, and since we have to be at the docks by midday will he have time to see all three� asked Bakka. �I will start right away, come with me� Philo replied. He took us through the building and on the way told one of his men to have the two white women brought to us and when the new girl arrives she was to be kept outside until we finish.

The room we were taken too had in its centre a wooden frame and when the women were brought in and stripped naked Philo had the first one tied to it in the form of an X the second being held by Philo's other man. The woman in the frame was not much older than me and I could see she had a good figure with firm pear shaped breasts. Not having any hair between her legs I was amazed to see the letter R burnt into the flesh of her pubic mound the legs of which went into each of her labia. Philo looked at me and asked if I would like to do the whipping or the marking.

I did enjoy birching the castle girl's but that was nothing compared to what I could do to these women. I thought about this and told him I would like to whip this one and mark the other. So it shall be he said and giving me the whip which was long with a single strand told me to stand to her side and alternate the cuts. One to her back the other to her front, he would tell me when to stop if necessary, I aimed the first across her buttocks and saw it cut both cheeks so my distance was right. I stood where I was and backhanded the next across the front of her thighs. This brought the first of her cries and with each cut just a little higher than the other she knew the next front one would cut into her clitoris and between her tears begged me to miss it.

I looked at Philo who told me to continue so I aimed for the tip of the whip to enter between her partly opened flesh. I had heard coloured women screaming, as they were whipped but never as extreme as this one did when it cut into her clit tube. She hung limp but in spite of her screams I continued until I reached her shoulders.
