Chapter eleven

Luke led Holly back to her room and then telling her to just stay where she was stood in the middle of the room, darted back out, closing the door behind him. Holly shivered and stared at the painted windows. How she wished they were real and she could just escape. She heard the door open and close again and heard Luke's footsteps approach her.

"Oh shit, I should have taken you out of your ownership tag before leaving. Sorry Holly," he said. He reached out and carefully removed the nipple clamps. He saw her nipples were red and bruised. "Do they hurt?" he asked gently. Holly nodded ever so slightly. Luke sighed and unclipped her collar, carefully tugging it out of her crack. He unclipped the waistband and guided it off Holly's legs. He dumped it into one of the buckets of soapy water he'd brought back with him. He then took a soft sponge and dipped it into the clean soapy water, squeezed it a bit and held it in front of Holly. "Holly, I'm going to try and clean some of this off your skin. Ok?" Holly nodded again and let him run the soapy sponge over her body, cleansing her body of the soup and sauces and food and wax and saliva that littered her body. It was kind of relaxing for her as she began to feel a bit more human. Luke spent a bit longer scrubbing a little bit harder at her thighs which were more caked than the rest of her. "Ok, done. Do you want to use some of the water to rinse your hair?" he asked. Holly nodded and crouched down on the floor next to the buckets of water and grabbed all of her hair over one shoulder and dunked it into the water before getting onto higher knees and dunking her scalp in, trying to rinse the sauces out of her hair. She stood up and Luke wrapped a towel around her body and with another dried her hair. "Better?" he asked. Holly nodded again. He poured some cream into his hands. "This is soothing cream. I'm going to place some on your breasts. Then if you need it, you can place some on your... downstairs," he said. He gently massaged her breasts with the cream and Holly couldn't help but sigh with relief.

"I know you warned me," she said suddenly and softly, "but I never expected it to be that bad. Is that going to happen every lunchtime?" Luke shook his head.

"No. It's just a tradition to welcome new 'initiates', warn them off disobeying their master because if you get into too much trouble you can be slave swapped for a while. Face a different, more punishing master," Luke explained. "But you'll be fine Holly. If you dealt with that well, you'll be fine with me." He stopped massaging her breasts and handed her the cream. "Do you need some?" he asked. Holly shook her head.

"I have a question," Holly suddenly said. Luke indicated she should continue. "Shower? Bathroom? Essentially is there a reason you used a bucket?"

Luke chuckled softly. "Such a simple question. There are showers and bathrooms. Every 'inmate' gets a shower at 9PM at night. You'll shower all inmates together in the shower room, doesn't matter gender or otherwise, you will do it or be punished. Also advice be quick in there, the longer you take to get in, the less chance of hot water you get. You must be wearing your ownership tag to the shower room but once inside you can remove it if you want. Bathroom in down the corridor for you, you share it with a few other girls down this corridor. If you need it and I'm not already here, you'll need to get the security staff to radio me. I'll come and give you your tag and escort you. But the reason I used a bucket, I didn't think you'd want to wait until 9PM to get cleaned up. And I can't take you to shower until then," Luke finished explaining.

Holly nodded. "Ok. That makes sense," she said. Luke smiled.

"Get a bit of a rest. I understand its been a bit of a confusing day. I'll come get you for tea," he said. He picked up the buckets and walked to the door. "Oh and Holly," he added. She turned to face him. "You did me proud earlier," he said. Holly smiled weakly as he left the room. She walked over to the bed and lay down on it. Her life was changing and she wasn't sure how she felt about it.
