Katy looked at me narrowly.

"So, nothing happened last night?" she said evilly.

I gulped.

"We need to see the Queen about this after breakfast." she said.

I didn't feel much like eating after that, but what the hell.



The interview with the Queen was short and to the point.

"I am responsible for your safety while you are in training here. Any more incidents like this need to be reported to me or Katy at once!" she said.

"MA'AM, YES MA'AM", I snapped from my kneeling position.

"Katy, take him out and punish him. I'll let you decide what sort of punishment to administer." she directed.

Katy ordered me to crawl out on my hands and knees and then sat in a chair in the outer office while I knelt at her feet.

"Well, what can I do to you? Something that will always remind you to tell the truth to me." she said thinking aloud.

I just waited for her. I had it coming and I knew it. Even though I had been warned not to trust anyone, I couldn't tell her that.

"I have a perfect punishment in mind for you." she finally said. "Come with me SLAVE!"



A few minutes later I was dressed in my jogging suit and being strapped into the exercise machine that forced me to do sit ups.

"Now, you are going to suffer. I'm going to set the machine for the maximum number of cycles and watch. By the time I'm finished with you, you will tell me anything I want to know." Katy said pulling the last strap tight.

"Mistress, please." I begged.

"No. You have to be punished for lying."

She started the machine and stepped back. I was bent forward then back over and over again. Each cycle bent me like a pretzel and the sweat poured off of me along with the tears of pain.

"You will not hide anything from me again. You will tell me anything I want to know." she said as the machine tore at me.

"Yes Mistress." I sobbed through the pain.

To add to my embarrassment, Ms. Clair entered the gym, watched me being twisted and laughed.

"Much better. That should keep the little swine in line." she said.

Over and over again I was bent. My back and stomach muscles rebelled and I vomited my breakfast onto myself.

This was worse than being beaten. The machine never stopped or slowed or took a break. It just tortured me. No feeling, no mercy, no pleasure. Simply a mechanical action.

My vision started blurring from the exertion and then became a gray fog.

The machine sighed to a stop at last and I laid back limply in the seat covered in sweat and vomit.

"Now he should eat his vomit." Ms. Clair commented savagely

I laid there, eyes closed and waited for Katy's order.

I would do anything she wanted to be released from the clutches of the machine.

"I don't think so." Katy said." But he is going to clean it up. With his hands."

I felt her release the straps and as the last one was released I fell limply to the floor.

"Now clean up the mess you made and thank me for permitting you to use your hands instead of your mouth." Katy snapped.

I opened my eyes and looked at the remnants of my meal and then looked at her with tears in my eyes.

"Thank you Mistress for letting me clean up my mess." I said weakly

She grabbed my hair and pulled my head back.

"Louder!" she demanded.

"Thank you Mistress for letting me clean up my mess!" I said in a louder tone.

She released her grip and I slowly gathered the mess into a pile on the floor and then removed my shirt to swab it up.

"Tell me Katy, haven't you ever really wanted to hurt one of these little swine until he screamed?" Ms. Clair asked her as I mopped up the slime.

"No, I really enjoy making them suffer silently. I don't want to hear them at all." Katy said.

"With an attitude like that, I can see why you aren't a Mistress yet. Lydia would never approve of someone as soft as you are on men."

Lydia. Even in my weakened state I felt a surge of fear.

"Perhaps you're right. But I'd rather torture a real man, rather than a man like this." Katy replied.

I just laid there, head on the floor waiting for permission to move or speak.

I heard Ms. Clair walk away and waited for the next phase of my punishment.

"Are you all right?" Katy whispered in my ear.

"No, Mistress. I hurt." I moaned.

"Good. Will you obey me now?" she asked.

"Yes Mistress."

She half dragged and half carried me to a bench and laid me down on my back.
