Chapter I: The Manse
Life was pretty boring, until I joined the manse, I actually don't remember how it all started, they always tell you about not getting into cars with strangers, but when someone tells you he is really stupidly rich, and shows you a briefcase full of money, and he wants you to live in his mansion with him, and you won't have to lift a single finger, you kinda want to get in his car with him. Even if you aren't the only boy who's gonna be living there.
There was nothing to stop me really, after my parents died, I was put in a home, it sucked, it was small, and cramped, and we had one really old games console between ten of us, with only like, three games. Some of the boys were mean too, not to me, just in general.
I climbed into the limo, there was only this one man in the back, the one who approached me, he said something to the driver, but I was so focused on looking around the limo, at how nice it was, I didn't hear what he said. He was quite tall, but he had a good weight, and he wore a beige suit of real quality, he had a beard and moustache, the kind from a century ago and he was always smiling. He leant over me and pulled the door shut, and we started to move.
He watched me a while, while I pressed all the buttons and switches in the limo, it had everything, half of it I didn't know what it did, but it still had it anyway.
"Sorry" I said, realising he was waiting for me to finish playing.
"It's okay" He smiled "I can tell this is new to you"
"I want to propose something to you, but if you don't want to, I'll take you wherever you want to go, and let you live your own life, okay" He said, bringing a box out from under his seat.
"My name is Landon Ellory, and Id like for you to come and live as a boy in my mansion, and you can play games all day, and you wont have to work, or go to school"
"A... boy?.. But I am a boy" I asked, confused.
"But I mean, forever" He said, opening the box, I didn't know what it was at first, some contraption made of plastic, all fitted together like a jigsaw puzzle. But now I know, it was a chastity belt. We sat in the car for some time, going over what he meant, all of the rules, but I still didn't understand, so he showed me the mansion.
It was massive! Over three floors, all grey stone and white marble pillars, with more windows than I could count, old style windows that slid up and down, rather than opening out. It had so many rooms, huge gardens on all sides, flowers and fountains everywhere, with trees and hedges all around, hiding it from the outside world. All the bedrooms were, tiny, but still a lot bigger than the one at the home, all decorated funny, and happy and child-like, every bedroom was different, but still made for a young boy, bright colors and stencils, with rugged lamps and plastic accessories so they wouldn't break.
It even had its own Arcade, and a football pitch, and a tennis court, and a swimming pool round the back, it was perfect.
"But why would you let me live here?" I asked, standing in his office.
"I just want a house full of love, and laughter and happiness" He said "Won't you be one of my boys?" Holding open the box from before.
"What do you want me to do?"
"So you will?" He asked excitedly "Then close your eyes"
I did. He walked over and placed the box on the end of the desk, taking out its contents and separating it into all of its separate pieces. "Relax" He said, slowly pulling down my shorts and placing a ring behind my balls, sliding together pins and sticks, and finally the cage, locking my privates in a sheath of plastic, and clicking the padlock. It was tight, but comfortable.
"What is this for?" I asked, looking down and feeling the cage.
"You're my boy now, and thats how I want you to stay, innocent" He explained" "You'll understand more when you're older"
Chapter II: Initiation
"You can go play now, or go find a room you like" said Ellory.
"Okay" I said as I turned to leave, unsure of what to do next. Leaving the office and pulling the door, I didn't realise everyone standing behind me.
"Yeah! A new boy, welcome!" About five or six boys were there to greet me "You are staying aren't you?" one of them said.
"Y-yeah, better here than, well, it doesn't matter" I avoided.
"Good, come with us, we'll find you a room" said the leading boy "I'm Jake, and that's Scott, and that's Kyle and that's...
"I probably won't remember all that" I interrupted.
"You will eventually, what's your name"
"Ash, its Ash" I said.
"Okay Ash, Let's go find you a room, ooh! We should get you a room near me"
Jake took my hand, and led me up the huge central staircase to the second floor, all of the doors were identical, cept for a door every so often that was a different color.
"What's in those doors?" I asked, pulling back on Jakes' hand to slow him down.
"Well, Brown doors are bedrooms, White doors are like communal rooms, like the dining room has a white door, the Blue doors are the toilets and showers and stuff, and the Red doors are for Master Ellory, and like workers and lawyers and whoever else works with Master Ellory"
"Lawyers? Wait, Master? Ellory" I questioned.
"Yeah, well, he doesn't actually like us calling him that, but its just easier" Jake explained, "What about this one!"
Jake pulled me inside the bedroom, I turned and looked around, It was all natury and green, with loads of old looking chests, all gold handles and brackets, but still so warm and comforting.
"This is perfect!" I exalted.
"I thought you'd like this one! I could tell, and you're only like three doors away from me! Here, let me show you my room" The other boys left to do their own thing.
"Wait, I umm" I paused, and whispered in Jakes' ear "I need the... toilet"
"Okay, let me take you" Jake chuckled, leading me over to the nearest blue door.
The bathroom was massive too, all marble in a fancy pattern, long lines of showers on the wall, all open and next to each other, just a few showers were more, private, all the toilets were separate little rooms, all bricked off, with proper doors.
"There you go, use that one" Jake gave me a playful push towards the door "I'll just wait here"
I went inside closing the door behind me, but it was dark, really dark, feeling around the walls I managed to find the light switch, blinding me a little as it switched on. "This place is so weird" I thought to myself. I pulled my shorts down and stood by the bowl, and then I realised, I was still in chastity.
"Ummm, Jake!?"
"What's wrong Ash?"
"How do I go with this thing on?" I asked worriedly, thinking I would never be able to go ever again.
"Can I come in?" Jake asked rapping the door lightly.
I slowly unbolt the door, the weight making it swing open slightly, Jake peers around the door and steps inside.
"It's easy Ash!, here" He holds both of my hands and walks me backwards onto the seat, only ever looking into my eyes, holding the lock of my cage he gently pushes it down, latching it under the seat "Now just relax and you'll go"
I could feel my cheeks going red, knowing Jake could see me, but I felt so relaxed I just went.
"Here" said Jake softly, bringing me to my feet and wiping my cage with some tissue, inadvertently touching my penis. I didn't say anything, it was too strange a situation to be in, I couldn't explain. The cage was so weird, but it made sense, it worked, and no one had ever treated me as well as Jake or Master Ellory had, I had everything right then. A really good home, and a really good friend. We spent the rest of the day looking at everything, playing games and watching TV.
Chapter III: The First Day
I slept so well. My new bed was the comfiest I had ever slept in. My room was so nice, and it was all mine, for as long as I stayed at the Mansion. I woke to a note on my desk. "Ash" it said.
I opened it carefully with the letter opener that was also on my desk, it was in one of those holders, with an assortment of pens, and pencils and felt tips. "I picked out something for you to wear, I hope its okay for you, come find me when you're ready.. Ellory"
"Oh yeah!, I forgot about needing clothes" I laughed to myself.
I opened the wardrobe, there was nothing in there except one single outfit. It was really good quality and my perfect size. Sky blue shorts, really short ones, with the pants sewn inside, and a yellow t-shirt with a red furry monster embroidered onto the front. The colors were so bright and happy, it was cute. I looked cute wearing it, I felt proud and almost confident in it. At the bottom of the wardrobe sat a pair of trainers, Blue and yellow stripes, with red laces! I slipped them on and tied them tight. I stood and looked at myself in the mirror. It matched me perfectly, my hair, my eyes, everything all worked together. I picked up all my old clothes and looked around at where to put them. "Aah, a hamper" I opened it up and threw my clothes inside, they looked old and worn out, mostly grey, like all the colors had faded.
I left my room and headed to Ellorys' office, his door was open, and he was talking to some guys in suits, I tapped on the door politely.
"Aaah, there's the boy i'm after, come in Ash" Master Ellory beckons to me "What do you think of the mansion so far? Still want to stay?"
"It's perfect, thank you, and yes I want to stay"
"Good! I'm arranging for you to go to the city with some others, we're going to get you loads of clothes to fill your wardrobe okay?" Ellory said, handing a huge stack of money to one of the men.
We left the office and headed towards the car, well, it was more of a people carrier than a car, but just as posh as a limo, if not more so, all the headrests had t.v's in the back of them. And there were places to store drinks and probably enough room in the boot to sleep or get changed or anything.
"Jake! You're coming too?" I screamed, getting into the car as Jake emerged from the house.
"Yeah, I have to make sure you get nice things to wear" He smiled, climbing into the car and taking a seat next to me. "You're going to love the city"
"I'm from the city... well, more the out-skirts" I explained.
Jake closed his eyes and smiled at me, knowing my experience of the city wasn't the best one.
"To Greymarsh!" I said.
We drove slowly down the main street in-between the shops where all the people walked, which I don't think was actually allowed, but we did it anyway. Pulling up outside this big three floored shop full of kids clothes. "Liglis House" The writing on the sign was all bubble writing, in like twelve different colors and some of the letters were backwards.
"This is where we always get our clothes from Ash" Jake explained "It's really cool, and really expensive"
We climbed out of the car, the men in suits closing the doors for us, and holding open the shop door for us too. "Mr Ellory says you can get anything you want". We were like little celebrities, it was so cool.
We all split up, cept for me and Jake, boys on every floor. "There's like so much choice, I don't know where to start"
"Why don't you start at the bottom and work your way up" Jake suggested "Pants and socks and stuff first"
Chapter IV: A boy indeed
I did just that. Picking out socks first, short ones for summer, longer ones for winter, thicker ones for walking around the mansion and stuff. As many colors as I could get...
"When are you ever going to wear pink socks Ash!" Jake laughed, surprised.
"Ha-ha, I dunno, it's just as good a color as any other"
"If you like then, what about pants?" Jake said, passing handfuls of my socks over to one of the men who took them straight to the till to be brought.
"I like the stuff with the pants already in them yanno? I said, picking up a pair of boxers wondering why anybody would want them separate.
"Yeah, see! Like these are awesome" I said excitedly, picking a pair of tight shorts off the wall, they were really soft and kinda shiny, and they had the underwear part already inside, like I like, and they came in every color ever. "I want these, can I get these?"
Jake moved closer and whispered, stroking my fringe "They are girls shorts, Ash" breaking into laughter.
"REALLY!?" I yelled, making everyone in the store notice. "But.." I lowered my voice "...But I really like them, no one will notice right? like.. no one will mind?"
"I dunno, erm, here, come in here" Jake whispered, and still laughing, leading me quickly into the changing rooms. "We should see what you look like with them on, then we can decide"
I started hanging all of the shorts on the pegs, while Jake stood behind me, stripping me down. "Ugh, it's cold in here"
"What color you wanna try first?" Jake pondered, looking around at all the options
"These" I said excitedly, grabbing a hot pink pair from the peg, holding them across my outstretched hands towards Jake.
Jake rolled his eyes "Turn around then" he said, taking them from me. Kneeling behind me he lifted each foot, sliding the shorts onto my legs, slowly pulling them up as he stood, making sure they were even and didn't roll up, stretching them over my cage so it didn't catch, until they were on properly. I felt so cute, but... weak, I felt like I needed protecting, and Jake was protecting me.
"Wow Ash, you look... stunning" Jake said excitedly "Wait here, I just wanna see something" and off he ran back to the store, before diving back into the changing rooms with a handful of clothes.
"Whats all this?" I asked, confused
"I just wanna see something, here put your foot in here" He lifted my right foot and started slipping a white net stocking up my leg, right up to my thigh, before starting on my left.
"Jake!" I gasped, my cheeks going bright red, as I looked up at the sky, trying not to make eye contact.
I could just sense him smiling, I closed my eyes as he slipped a top over my head, feeding my arms into the sleeves as he went, and pulling a white flat cap onto my head. The top was the same pink as my shorts, soft, but tight, with a little v-neck, and really warm and fuzzy on the inside.
He spun me round and stood close behind me "open your eyes Ash" He whispered, stroking the back of my neck, and running his hands down my sides "You're beautiful"
I opened my eyes and saw my reflection in the mirror. I was beautiful, just as Jake said. I didn't look like a boy anymore, I looked like a really cute girl, with Jake standing behind me, his arms around me as, well, my boyfriend I guess.
"Jake.. I.." I turned to face him and leant into him, staring longingly into his eyes, I could feel myself welling up, just because I was so happy. I had been alone for so long, without anything to call my own.
Jake said nothing, as he walked me backwards onto the mirror, kissing me over and over, I held my hands up to his chest, feeling his power. We were kissing for so long, until we were both out of breath, I leant in, laying my head on him as his arms surrounded me "You have to get these clothes" He said "You look so perfect in them"
"But Ellory wants boys, not.. girls" I said, worrying about the consequences.
"Ellory never checks what we buy, we'll just get you loads of boy clothes too, and we can keep these a secret" Jake comforted, squeezing my thighs as he said it. "Get un-dressed, and I'll go get all your other clothes"
I sat on the bench in the dressing room, taking in how good my clothes felt, before slowly taking them off, missing them instantly, and returning to the boys clothes I came in with. What was perfect to me just hours earlier, now felt wrong, and rough and plain.
Chapter V: Hiding
I thought we had been a lot longer in the dressing room that we actually were, when I emerged most of the other boys were still shopping. Jake had managed to both buy me several boys outfits, but also smuggle my girls clothes into a separate bag from all the others. The drive back to the mansion was agonisingly slow, And I was so nervous the whole time that somebody would see what I brought, me and Jake rushed out of the car as soon as it pulled up and went straight to my room, hiding my girls' stuff at the end of my wardrobe. We didn't say anything else about it.
We spent the rest of the day in the den, playing games and watching tv like we had before. They had so many games and consoles and computers. You could literally do anything you wanted. Most of the boys played racing games, or football ones. I was the best at the racing games, nobody could ever beat me, But for some reason, I never enjoyed the football games, or even real football anymore. I used to play it all the time at the home, but now I was here, I never seemed to feel up to it. So most times I just sat out and watched. Every so often I would look over at Jake and start to smile, then i'd look away, trying to act normal.
We all had our dinner in the dining room, and went to bed. I lay there staring at the ceiling, waiting for Ellory to come tuck us in and say goodnight like he always did. He never did look in my wardrobe. "Just go over" I said to myself "If you're quick, no-one will see" I worried about moving, Ellories workers are always doing patrols and walking round "dammit" I said leaping out of bed, I went over to my wardrobe and changed into my girls clothes, feeling instantly better. "Right, now the hard part" I crept up to my door and listened for noise in the hallway, but it was silent. I walked quickly up the corridor to Jakes door, turning the handle slowly and going inside.
"Who's that?" Jake muttered, still half asleep
"It's me, Ash" I said reassuringly, moving over to his bed "Can I... Join you?"
"Aww, c'mere" He said, folding over the duvet so I could get in. I lay down under the covers close to him, putting my leg over his and my hands on his chest, he wrapped the duvet behind me and slid his arm round my back, pulling me close. I kissed his neck, and under his chin burying my nose there.
"Wait... Are you wearing your girls clothes?" Questioned Jake, able to feel my soft clothes on his skin.
"Yes baby" I chuckled.
"I love you so much" He laughed, kissing me and holding me tight "Let's go to sleep"
And we did, quite quickly.
Morning came quickly too. When I woke, it seems Jake had been awake a while, he was just holding me, and watching me sleep, until I started to stir "Morning girl" He said, stroking my hair and my arm, which was still wrapped around him.
"Hmm, morning" I started opening my eyes slowly, sitting up slightly. Jake just sat taking in how I looked "What?" I asked lovingly.
"You just look so beautiful Ash..." He paused "...You need a new name"
"What's wrong with Ash!?" I pouted.
"I mean a girls name" Jake said, moving closer and stroking my thigh.
"What about erm... Lani, or or... Lyra?"
Jake tilted his head, and looked me up and down "Lyra"
"Oh, damn" I yelled "It's morning, I gotta get back before anyone sees"
I quickly ran out of Jakes room, and back into my own, transforming back into Ash.
It was a little annoying at first, having to spend all day as Ash, talking like him, and running from my room to Jakes all the time, I never got to really enjoy being with him, because I was always aware of someone coming in and seeing Lyra.
And it was only going to get more and more difficult, especially as I was getting used to being Lyra, and the less time I wanted to be Ash.
Chapter VI: Full House
We carried on our nightly ritual, after Ellorys' rounds, I would become Lyra, and spend the night with Jake, but it was getting harder, every few days more and more boys came to the house. Having to be around them, and greet them as Ash was annoying, and everyone knew something was up, especially Jakes friend Kyle, who I met on my first day, and his friend Craig.
"Don't get mad okay?" Jake said later that night, as I lay by him.
"What have you done?" I worried.
"Kyle and Craig asked me why you were, off recently" Jake explained slowly "So.. I kinda told them"
"You did what!?" I yelled "They know.. about.. Lyra?"
"They don't mind, and they won't say anything, I promise" Jake comforted "But.. well.. they want to see you"
"They.." I wondered.
"They think it sounds cool, can I show you to them? Please?"
I remained silent.
"I'm so proud of you, of being with you, I wanna make 'em jealous, Please Lyra?"
I was apprehensive, but I eventually agreed. The next night when I went to Jakes room, I sat on the edge of the bed and waited, Kyle and Craig showed up shortly after I arrived, they were excited. I stood up.
"Hey guys" I waved, putting my hands down in front of me. I sank, and went red, looking down and suddenly feeling very naked.
"Oh my god!" Craig bellowed.
"Shhh, keep it down Craig" Jake snapped.
Kyle said nothing, he just came up and hugged me "I'm Kyle" he said introducing himself.
"I know silly, I'm, umm... Lyra" I joked.
"You really are so beautiful Lyra" said Kyle quietly, holding me on the shoulders.
"Yeah, she is, so now you've seen her, you can shush" says Jake playfully, guiding Craig out of the door, with Kyle leaving of his own accord.
I sat down on the bed "Sorry girl" apologised Jake.
"It's okay, it made me feel kinda.. good.. about myself"
Jake stalked his way up the bed as I scooted backwards til I reached the pillows, kissing as we went. I lay down and gazed up at him as he hovered over me "I love you Jake"
"I love you too, Lyra" we said to each other, kissing and feeling each other all over, more than ever before, "I just wish..."
"Wish what?" I asked
"I wish I could take this cage off" Jake sighed.
"I wish you could take your cage off too" I smiled.
I flipped Jake onto his back, and climbed over him, one leg on either side, and gently started to rock back and forth. My soft shorts rubbing against his cage, but we both knew the cage would hurt eventually if we got too excited. We both made long deep breaths and tried to concentrate on our kissing rather than anything else, but it was no good. Unsatisfied we gave up, I collapsed onto my side, and we just went to sleep.
"I'm sorry I can't pleasure you baby" I said annoyed with myself.
"Aww, its not your fault girl" Jake reassured me "We'll find a way"
I assumed my normal position in his arms, and drifted off to sleep, wondering how we would ever work it out. "We need to speak to Ellory" I thought to myself.
Chapter VII: A House Divided
I was so used to being Lyra now, I didn't even think of what I was doing the next morning. Jake was still asleep, I had somehow managed to separate myself from him in the night, so I just left, heading back to my room yawning, without a single thought.
"What's a girl doing here?" Boomed a voice behind me.
"Wait... that's not a girl!" Said another voice "That's some pussy boy in drag. Don't you have any balls pussy boy?"
Even though I was Lyra, I was still born Ash, and I still grew up from the age of five in a home, with no parents, and homes are hard places to live, there isn't a lot of resources, so if you want to shower first, you either have to get up really early, or be the biggest hardest person there. And I never have liked getting up early. So I turned to face them.
"I've got bigger balls than you!" I challenged, but also realising my voice was getting really feminine and soft.
All they did was laugh. "Hoho, You make a pretty girl don't you sissy boy?" The three of them joined in together "You should be my girlfriend" whistling and jaunting at me.
Jake came out of his room, and hid my face in his chest "Lyra's still more of a man than you'll ever be!" Jake looked down at me, seeing I was a little scared. "You're not a man, picking on someone, three on one too! You're lucky I was here to stop Lyra kicking your ass"
"Go inside baby" Jake lead me back into his room and shut the door behind me "And that's another thing!" I could hear Jake shouting at them, he was shouting for a while too, every so often one of them would try and say something, but Jake would interrupt them and put them back in their place. No one had ever protected me like that, no one ever seemed to care that much about me. I mean, my parents did, but I barely got to know them really. The crash killed them.
"Now, get lost!"
Jake came back into the room and kneeled in front of me "Are you okay baby?" He asked, seeing the faint tears in my eyes.
"Yeah, thanks for protecting me" I kissed Jake, holding his cheeks with my hands.
"We need to go see Ellory, like right now"
"But... i'm scared" Jake took my hand.
"Trust me, I wont leave you"
He pulled me to my feet, and we walked straight to Ellorys' office. There was no hiding it now, I was still dressed as Lyra. Jake knocked the door, and we went in.
"Oh Jake! And who's this... Ash? What are you doing?"
"Please Master Ellory, we want to speak to you" Jake requested
"What have I said about calling me that, call me Landon, and close the door" Said Ellory friendlily. I turned and closed the door, leaving Jake to do all the talking.
"We love you Sir, we can't thank you enough for letting us stay here, you've given both of us so much, and we haven't given you anything in return, you've given us better lives, and we hate to sound so disrespectful Sir, but.."
Ellory stood up from his desk "But what?"
"But Sir.. we.. me and Ash Sir, we love each other" Jakes' courage started to wane in front of Ellory "And we were wondering if, we could take our cages off, Sir"
Ellory walked over to us slowly sighing "I knew this day would come, I just didn't expect it so soon, or to come from either of you"
"Sir?" We asked in unison.
"Boys aren't supposed to be in cages, it goes against their nature, I just hoped that putting you in them would delay it, or stop it altogether, but it does the opposite"
He came closer still "What is this you're wearing Ash?" He laughed, puzzled.
"I got it from Liglis Sir, I saw it and liked it, I¦ prefer dressing like this"
"And do you have a name to go with it?" He asked, still chuckling to himself.
"Lyra, Sir"
"Thats a beautiful name, for a beautiful girl Lyra... here" Ellory handed me two tiny keys. "These will let you and Jake out of your cages, but keep it quiet okay, I want to see if the other boys can keep to the program. Especially now we have such a gorgeous girl running around"
"So... I can stay as Lyra too?" I asked excitedly.
"I just want you all to be happy, and if that makes you happy, then do it... But don't be too open okay, if you can hide it sometimes, like when you go to into Greymarsh or something, that would be best, now go have fun you two"
"Ha-ha, Yes!" We celebrated when we left the office, the keys safely in my pocket.
Chapter VIII: Forgetting the Past
Our celebration was to be short lived. The name Ellory and the Mansion were becoming more and more known to the general population. As more and more boys joined, more and more people wondered where they were coming from.
And unbeknownst to us, The Home had been looking for me this whole time. I had been reported missing, and the police had been trying to track me down. And now with more and more boys coming to Ellory Mansion. The police came here too.
"Now look here Mr Ellory, we've had reports of several boys going missin' And obviously as your house is full of 'em, we need to ascertain, exactly where they all came from" Probed the policeman.
"Most of them are off the streets constable, Or from homes. I assure you they are all above board" Explained Ellory
"We'll it just so happens, we're after one boy from a home, one... Ashley Hales, does that name ring a bell?" The policeman pressed
Ellory hid the fact he knew I was at the mansion, He never thought about where he got me from, I guess my clothes at the time must have looked too old for me to be from a home, but thats how bad the home was.
Me and Jake were walking round the mansion hand in hand, policemen were everywhere, but none of them even second looked at me, They just took me as being a girl. But there was one walking round who would spot me, the madam of the home. Madam Gourd
"What are all these police here for?" I asked as we entered the den
"They are looking for you Ash, making sure all of us are here legally, I didn't know you were from a home" Explained Kyle quietly.
"They.. came looking for me?, no no! I have to hide, hide me Jake" Jake and I turned to head back to my bedroom, and thats when I saw her. standing in the hallway
"Master Hales, what have you got on" Boomed Gourd "You are coming back to the home this instant!"
"What is all this?" Inquired Ellory coming down into the hallway where we all were
"This boy belongs with us, take him back" Snapped Gourd
"Come along son, time to get you home" Sighed a policeman, as two of them grabbed me and started to lead me to their van
"But I am home! Dad!.. nnnggg, Ellory.. do something!" I pleaded
"Please Sir, is there nothing you can do, we're all she has!" Pondered Jake, staring intently at Ellory.
"Ash isn't going anywhere, let him go" Ordered Ellory, fast dialling a number on his mobile.
He was speaking to somebody, but none of us could work out who, he seemed very business-like, and was all about numbers and names and dates, being very precise. But whatever he did, he did it fast, really fast.
"There's nothing you can do!" Gloated Gourd, As her phone started vibrating "What now!?"
Ellory hung up his phone just as Gourds' started to ring.
Her face fell as the news was read to her, "How!?, How is that possible so quickly!?"
"Ashley Ellory, welcome home my son" Beckons Ellory
"What!?" Me and Jake echoed, confused.
"I adopted you, this will always be your home now" Explained Ellory
".... Oh Daddy!" I screamed, running up to Ellory and hugging him senseless.
"You're welcome, Lyra"
The police left quietly, I was now legally Landons'.. well.. son, but you know. Madam Gourd left just as quietly, her head down, Unable to achieve whatever her goal was, although it didnt make any sense for her to want me back. I don't know why she couldn't see I was better off.
Finally we were able to celebrate, no more hassle, no one could do anything to us now. The Mansion was free to operate as it did. And now more boys than ever came to stay, And most of the rooms were full. I rarely used mine anymore. I spent my time at Jakes.
Chapter IX: The "First" Lady
Life carried on pretty much as it did. The good thing was I could be Lyra all day, and most of the boys got used to it. The ones who didn't either just avoided me, or learnt there was nothing they could do about it, and submitted in the end.
The one major change though, was me and Jake still had our keys.
Daddy did his rounds, just like he always did, but now he could do mine and Jakes together.
"Goodnight Jake, Goodnight daughter" He said, kissing me on the forehead, leaving, and heading into the next room. I waited for him to leave
"Now, where were we" I said, straddling Jake like I did the time before, getting his key out of my pocket, turning it in his lock, and un-coupling it. I slid his cage off gently, removing all the locking pins, and sliding the ring out from behind.
"Thats better right?" I asked, kissing Jake softly.
"What about yours" He whispered, gesturing with his head
"Well. i'm a girl right? so, I need to stay, down.. so to speak" I smiled
"Where do we even start?" Asked Jake, unsure what to do with himself.
"Let's just start here"
I ran my hands down his body, and lifting his shirt up, kissing his stomach. I could see all of the goose bumps appear as I lifted his shirt higher, following it up with my mouth, and taking it off, over his head. Bringing my hands back down him, I drew lines and patterns on him til I reached the bottom, unbuttoning his trousers slowly, one by one, down all three buttons. I edged them down his legs, one side after the other, and slipping them out from behind me, followed closely by his boxers.
All the time I was kissing him, his tongue moving around in my mouth, I never used my tongue when kissing, never felt right when I did it, I was happy just to close my mouth around his tongue, tasting him.
I leant in close, pulling my chest close to his, my arms kept close to my body, my wrists down by my cage, my fingers walking up his penis towards his groin, then sliding back down his shaft towards the tip.
It didn't take long before we started to see the effect. Every pulse of his heart brought it up, further and further in little jumps, harder and harder it got until it stood, proud, and fully erect.
My hands caressed him all over, feeling every bump and every vein, warming his balls with my massaging palms. I never compared, but I knew he had to be bigger than me. He closed his eyes, and tilted his head back on the pillow, his little moans and mumbles telling me I was doing it right. I slowly scooted forwards, placing the crotch of my shorts against him, applying my heat and my soft silky material to his sensations.
"Lyra" he whispered, his words elongated. I crawled backwards off him, keeping my hands on him as much as a could, I lay on my front, with my legs bent, my feet high in the air, bringing my lips down and kissing his sack, my nose rubbing against his shaft as my head moved in and out, sliding my curled hand up and down him. He was so hot to the touch, his muscles rippling in and out as I stroked him, making him swell and contract, his head flaring.
I slowly edged my lips round, kissing further and further up his shaft, until I reached the head.
"Lyra" He moaned again, louder this time.
I drew my tongue up the seam of his penis, and swirled it around the head, over and over, getting it moist and lubricated, before sliding my lips over, closing my mouth around his, what felt like, giant penis, filling my whole mouth. Up and down I slid my mouth and head, as far as I could go, tightening the pressure of my tongue on the underside of his shaft as I pulled back, driving Jake wild. He was dripping all of his precious pre cum, sweet like nectar, the taste alone was enough to make me start dripping too.
Jakes' moans were getting more frequent, but he was still so quiet, my good boy, I was so proud of him, I slowed my speed, and came to a stop, I couldn't let him cum that way. I crawled back up over him, kissing a line up him as I went, keeping our bodies as close as I could. I straddled him, and took a grip of his cock, guiding it slowly inside me, moaning loudly as I did.
Jake sucked in through his teeth. "Lyra.. wait" He said, trying to open his eyes enough to look at me.
"What's wrong baby?"
"Nothing, its just.. are you sure? I mean.. I don't have any.. protection" He asked sweetly, thinking of what it meant, knowing there would be no changing what we were about to do.
"I only ever want you Jakey, my first, my last, and everyone in-between" I said, sealing it with a kiss
I sat back up, and carried on, slowly feeding his whole length between my cheeks, it seemed to go on forever, until I felt his balls pressing there, it felt wide too, I could feel all of the veins that spiralled up and around, and that Jake was liking it too, he was squirming inside, flaring and sliding around, and my body was doing the same, clenching and shaking constantly.
I slowly rocked, back and forth towards him, building up motion, until it was comfortable, his pre cum, dripping, acting as lube and making it much smoother, letting me finally get a good speed.
And thats when I felt it, my spot, every time his head even grazed it, I went wild, and a whole shiver ran down my body, passing itself onto Jake too, making him flex, which in turn just made me shiver even more.
I took his hands, my fingers spread through his, and I brought them up and down my thighs, separating my fingers and letting him carry on. His every touch was like electricity surging through my skin, penetrating deep inside my very muscles.
But he was still, so, so quiet.
I wasn't quiet at all after that
"Jake! oh Jake!" I leant back, meaning he would hit my spot on every stroke, I bounced up and down, higher and higher, and faster, and faster, my whole body shaking, my lips trembling, but I couldn't have stopped, even if I wanted to, which I didn't. It was like a rollercoaster, and I couldn't get off until the end.
"Jake!!" I screamed as we climaxed, my shorts were dripping wet, and my bum was hit with a torrent of Jakes hot, sticky cum, my own cum dribbling slowly through the hole in the end of my cage. I collapsed onto my legs, barely able to lift my arms, feeling the pulses of Jakes cock emptying every last bit of cum into me. My throat was dry and scratchy after all the breaths I had taken in. Jake had been spent so dramatically he couldn't even open his eyes, I saw his chest rise and fall, his heart pounding.
Slowly I got enough energy to move, sliding myself off of Jakes, now only semi-erect, masterpiece, edging slowly up next to him, and lying beside him, whispering sweet nothings.
"I love you baby" I said in-between massive breaths "That was so amazing, thank you" kissing near his ear.
"Nnnghh" he moaned "You don't have to thank me" moaning more "You.. did all the work"
He used his last ounce of energy putting his arms around me, and pulling me close. "I do all the work next time girl..." As we fell to sleep almost instantly
"...I love you" were the last three words he said that night.
Chapter X: Eyes and Ears
When we awoke, we were both happier than ever, and felt full of life. "I totally need a shower" I said, feeling the crotch of my shorts, and grabbing a clean outfit from the clothes I kept in Jakes wardrobe
"Yeah, me too" Jake agreed, grabbing his clothes and taking my hand as we headed to the nearest bathroom block. We grabbed a huge towel from the cupboard and went over to one of the more private showers. There were a few other boys in the bathroom with us, using the more open showers, still with all of their cages on.
Jake seemed apprehensive, holding the towel over his crotch. "It's okay baby, they don't know" I whispered, comforting him.
We stepped inside the shower, pulling the door behind us and locking it, stripping each other and placing all of our clothes on the bench and hook behind us. Pressing the switch, the water came out with a hot blast, instantly filling the cubicle with a cloud of steam, condensation dripping down the walls.
"Aah, that's nice" I sighed, holding my head under the water, running my hands through my hair, and down my body, instantly being warmed all over.
Jake grabbed the shower gel from the stand in the corner "Sorry girl, this is all they have" clicking open the top.
I looked round to see it was a men's gel, designed to smell manly and musky.
He squirted a load into his hands, and rubbed them together, getting the gel warm, and lathering it up. and rubbing it over my neck and back, massaging it in with his fingertips as he went, driving me to orgasm "Babe.."
"Yeah girl?" Jake questioned, still massaging.
"Are you trying to get me horny again?" I chuckled
"What!? No" Jake laughed, puzzled
"We'll youre gonna, if you keep doing that" I explained, showing my face, eyes closed and my cheeks red as they always went in that situation.
"Sorry girl, I don't mean to, you just.. have to get used to it I guess" Jake pressed "Just try not to think about it and relax"
I tilted my head back, and took in deep breaths, trying to think about anything else, "Video games" I said aloud to myself "Shopping for stuff" Jake laughed behind me, working his way up and down my body, washing me all over, his hands cupping my bum, and washing between my cheeks. "Football" I repeated, calling out more and more things to keep my mind off of Jake
Standing back up, Jake passed the suds from my body to his, washing himself quickly, but thoroughly, knowing I never would have been able to stop if I had laid my hands on him. "Last bit now" He said, placing his hands on my hips, turning me round and walking me backwards under the water, grabbing the shampoo from the side, massaging it in his palms like before, and running his fingers through my fringe.
He took great care washing my hair, using his fingers like a comb, starting from my scalp and pulling it down, straightening my curls, I swear my hair had gotten longer. The shampoo dried it out a little, but kept it straight, which was the main thing.
I had my eyes closed the entire time, and right on the last combing motion, Jake kissed me
It felt even better than it did in bed, the hot water relaxing our muscles, and dripping down over my face, feeling like a thousand hands.
"All done" he said, pressing the button on the wall to stop the water. I just stood there, my eyes still closed, stuck in a moment of bliss. Jake took the towel, and stood next to me, wrapping it around me and drying me off slowly, making sure the towel didn't rub, slowly I reopened my eyes. Jake was stood there still dripping from the shower, not fazed by seeing my naked body, respecting it.
"Come here baby" I said, taking the excess towel that draped down, wrapping it around my man and drying him, much as he did me. "We'll do it together"
"Thanks girl" He smiled, as he shivered slightly, putting my arms around him, I hugged him, sharing my heat with him. I felt so much hotter recently, like my standard all day temperature was higher, and it didn't look to change soon either.
I sat him down on the bench, clearing him a space next to his clothes, I knelt down, putting the towel under my knees so they were protected, and I started dressing him. "You don't have to do that baby" He shook his head, smiling.
"But I want to, you've done it for me, so why can't I do it for my man" I said cheerily, and full of pride
"hmm, man?" Jake, looked at himself objectively.
"You are my man! My big, handsome man" I stroked his leg before snapping his waistband into place, and kissed him softly.
Letting him put his shirt on, I quickly got dressed, I was so good at that now, I could change almost instantly, and managed to put my whole outfit on in the time it took Jake just to put on his shirt. We left the cubicle side-by-side, Jakes arm around me, without a single care. Unaware, that the other boys were talking about us.
Chapter XI: Preferential Treatment
I knew that I was.. loud, when I was with Jake, but I didn't realise how loud, and as we were making love, well.. most nights, I'd kinda given myself a little reputation.
"Jake!" my voice echoed around the second floor, everyone knew what we were up to, the men in suits even, as they did their nightly patrols. But it was strange, the first thing that came to everyones mind, wasn't the fact that Jake clearly didn't have his cage on. All they wanted was peace and quiet.
"Do you two ever get tired?" Laughed Kyle as we entered the den "You need to move rooms, you're so loud Lyra"
"I'm..." I died
"Don't tell me you haven't noticed" Asked Kyle, shocked
"Am I really that loud?" I looked down, humiliated
"Lyra" Ellory called from the hallway
"Daddy?" I replied, walking out to him
"I want you to have this" He said, handing me a really old and heavy key, made of wrought iron.
"Where is this to?" I enquired, looking Ellory in his eyes.
"Do you know the door, on the other side of my office?" I nodded "It leads to my books and papers. But i'm moving them to the other wing. And i'm making it your bedroom, tell the Stewards how you would like it decorated, and they'll get you want you want" He said, kissing me on the head
"Thankyou Daddy!" I yelled after him, as he walked away
"What was that about?" Asked Kyle as him and Jake came to the hallway
"Daddy has given us his office, so we'll be away from everyone" I cheered, running up stairs and flying into the office, followed slowly by the two boys, who were using the time to catch up.
It didn't look the same at all, it was completely bare, everything, gone. All the lights were hanging from the walls, there was no carpet, no wallpaper. And it made me feel so bad.
"Dad..." I turned around and ran as fast as I could back down the stairs towards the other wing, cutting in-between Jake and Kyle.
"Where's she going now"?
"Lyra!, Lyra what's wrong?" Jake panicked
"Daddy wait!" I yelled, catching up to Ellory at the end of the corridor
"What's the matter Lyra?" He said, putting his arms around me as I tried to catch my breath.
"I can't... accept it" I pleaded, trying to breath and cry at the same time "I don't.. deserve it, your office was beautiful, and now it's all.. gone"
Ellory picked me up, and I grabbed onto his shoulder as he took me into the other wing.
"I'm just moving my office Lyra, it will look exactly the same when its finished, if not better, it will actually be bigger" He explained, clearing the hair from my eyes, and placing me gently on a huge red sofa.
"But I still don't want to take it from you, you've done everything for me, and it's too much"
He handed me a small glass with something dark red and bitter smelling in it, sitting next to me.
"The home you were in was bad wasn't it" I stayed silent "Having to be loud, and rough, and something you didn't want to be, hmm?"
"Yeah" I looked down, tears dripping from my eyes
"I never want anyone to be in that situation ever again, especially not you, not again"
"But why me, why am I so special?" I cried
"Look at you" He said softly "How can you not be special? You're happy, and loving, you're loyal, and respectful, and how much love you show Jake, well, i'm surprised the poor boy isn't in hospital or something" Ellory laughed deeply
"You.. heard about that?" I winced, cheered up slightly
"I think Greymarsh heard you, take a drink" He said, downing the glass he had himself in one go.
"Ugh!" I shuddered "What is that stuff?"
He burst out laughing "It's Red Wine, really expensive wine"
"Oh, forgive me, i'm so sorry" I panicked, about to try and force down another sip
"It's okay" comforted Ellory, taking the glass from my hand and placing it on the table. "Your taste buds arent developed yet, you might like it in years to come"
I twiddled my thumbs in my lap
"Take the room Lyra, I promised you a better life, and that's what you'll have, if you let me.. And I swear to you i'm not giving up things I have just for you. We can always have both, and you'll always be my daughter" Ellory comforted, giving me a big hug "Now go, your boyfriend needs you"
I left without another word, part of me still didn't feel right, but the other part was happy, and proud to be an Ellory, and proud I had been given this amazing life, free to be what I wanted to be.
Jake and Kyle were waiting for me when I came out of the wing. "I'm sorry guys, I just had to see why Daddy gave me all this, I'll go see the Stewards now"
I walked past them both, and they left me alone with my thoughts.
Chapter XII: Smoothing out the Cracks
I told the stewards everything I wanted, I thought it would be all very expensive, but it wasn't. I had only asked few a few major things, things I never thought in all my dreams I could ever have. A king size, four-poster bed, with a canopy, a proper wood dining table, and a big comfy sofa in the main room, but the thing I wanted the most, was my bath. A proper one, the kind where they just hand build it, out of concrete, and tiles, big enough for four people, let alone just one or two.
I had the rooms done in deep reds for the bedroom, like the color of the wine Daddy gave me, I didn't like the taste, but I still liked the color, it was warm, and romantic. And greens in the living room, just like my room on the first day. All the wood was dark too, and I had to have carpet, the thick woolly kind. The home just about had carpet, but it never quite touched the walls, there was always a gap around the edge of the room where it was all frayed, and it was all trodden flat.
it didn't take them very long, by the next day it was all done. and me and Jake could finally move in.
But I told him to wait. At least until after dinner.
I ran upstairs and ran a bath, while I waited for it to be filled, I lit candles all around the room, and pulled the duvet and folded it in half so it was ready to dive straight in.
I stripped down and climbed into the bath, it was filled to the brim with red hot water and bubbles. It was so nice to relax in, it had been so long before I could have a bath without having a time limit on it. Jake walked in.
"Wow" he called out looking at the amazing workmanship and loving the design. He looked over at me through a wall of steam and came and stood next to me, greeting me with a kiss.
"Come join me" I said, stroking his hand and arm.
I watched him get naked, folding his clothes up in a neat pile and stepping into the bath.
"Holy!" He screamed, slowly submerging himself "Why do girls have their baths so freaking hot"
I laughed respectfully "Is it really that hot baby?" I asked "want me to cold it a little?"
"No, it's okay now i'm getting more used to it" He said, wriggling around until he got comfortable "This is nice"
I entangled my legs in his, and I grabbed some oil from the rack, which stood next to the bath, emptying some into my hands, making them soft and shiny. I slowly put my hands under the water, and ran my fingers through his toes, massaging his feet in oil.
"Ha-ha Lyra, that tickles!"
"Sorry baby" I said, moving my hands up and starting on his ankles and calves
"Are you okay now girl? what was all that stuff with Ellory"
"I just asked him why I was being treated so special, and why he gave us this room, I felt bad at first, but now i'm happy, i've realised, you both think i'm special.. so maybe.. I am special, and I should just let you both show me what you think, and I should just accept it and be grateful"
"You are special girl, come here" Jake opened his arms, flipping over onto my front, I leant in and lay on him, my oily hands massaging his back and sides, as he used the water as a cover, pulling it up my back and letting it cascade over my shoulders.
The gentle lapping of the water added a new dimension to our senses. And I just melted.
I sat up, straddling Jake
"I love you girl" He said, stroking my thighs "Ooh girl, you need a shave"
"I know" I sighed, looking down at the fine wisps of hair that were starting to grow all over my body "I noticed them a few days ago, I dunno what to do, I might ask Daddy, he'll know" I moved off Jake sitting back at the end of the bath.
"I still don't mind" Jake said, climbing over to my side, and kissing my neck, his tongue flicking in and out, his hands sliding up and down my thighs with a slight grip, dominant, but not hurtful.
"Nrm" I moaned, stifling myself with my hands to try and keep quiet.
Jake pulled my hand down with his, whispering "Don't hide it baby, I like to hear how much you love me" returning his lips to my neck and shoulders.
I put my hands on his back, and tried pulling him close, but I was shaking so much I didn't have any strength, whole waves of pleasure washed over me, in time with the water, up from my feet, through my whole body, and crashing around my brain before washing back down.
"Come on baby" I started to lift him up as I came to my feet, our tongues wrestling with each others, I guided us both out of the tub, and across the wooden strip that cut across my room towards the bed, the water dripping from us both, leaving our footprints.
"Take me" I moaned, as Jake lifted me up, his arms under my bum taking my whole weight, as he knelt onto the bed, and dropped me down near the pillows. I pulled some out the way quickly, using others to support my head and bending my legs.
"Put them here baby" Jake advised, grabbing my legs and hoisting my ankles up onto his shoulders "I do all the work now.. close your eyes"
I laid my head down, and did as he said, trying to anticipate when he might penetrate me, hearing a gloop below me "What was that?" I asked, confused, but also strangely aroused.
"I borrowed some oil, I hope you don't mind" He said, oiling up his cock and wiping the excess on his chest and legs.
The orgasm was instant, his entire length slid in easily in one fluid motion, making me clench around him, driving even more sensations my way, as I let out my loudest whine yet. "Hmm" He smiled, full of confidence and pride, knowing he had such control over me.
Instantly he pulled back, giving all the sensations I had just felt all over again, only this time, in reverse, waxing and waning, my mind unable to work it out, like tapping your head and rubbing your stomach at the same time.
"You feel so good baby" He said, finding a steady rhythm. I didn't have any words, I writhed around on the bed, my body shaking all over. The sensations were so strong, I was moaning twice a stroke, my body covered in goose bumps
"Phew" I breathed out, trying to stay calm, knowing I was so close to losing it already, and Jake wasnt even hitting my spot, but I had the feeling he was doing that on purpose
"You aren't cumming already, are you girl?" Jake toyed with me, placing his hand on my stomach to try and soothe my burning.
"How.. have you got so.. good all of a sudden" I toyed back. grabbing his bum cheeks with my hands and changing his angle so he was deeper "Nnngh" I moaned loudly
Every stroke he made added to the depths of emotion I was experiencing, building and building, making me want that great release, but my cage wouldn't let me, instead his thrusting pumped me, releasing a tiny bit of my pre cum every stroke, keeping me wanting more and more
Jake looked down and saw me squirming, my cage dripping, "Keep going baby" He said "I'm so proud of you, you're doing so well" He stroked my hair, running his finger over my lips in a "shush" motion, but increasing his speed, and thrusting harder, with all his power.
"Give it to me baby! Make me cum" I pleaded with Jake, grabbing his hips and trying to push his rhythm.
He obliged, changing his angle once more, pounding my spot over and over "Orgasm for me baby" he said, moaning, as his massive cock got even harder and flared. I couldn't help but moan out over and over, the sensation building, and my eyes wincing. "Cum with me Jakey!" I yelled, following straight up with a whisper "I'm close"
"Me too... baby" He whispered back, as our moans got louder and louder, calling out each others names
"Jake! Jake! my voice went up about thirty keys in a single moment
"Lyra!" He yelled, his cry lasting for ages, as we both came together, giving me a real feminine feeling, it wasn't at all like cumming as a boy. It wasn't just one massive moment, it was a long multi layered release, that released you of everything, all your tensions, all your worries.
Jake collapsed next to me, both of us panting, and sweating all over. We didn't need to say anything, we knew we loved each other, we had just shown that. The place was a mess, but neither of us had the energy to move, we just lay there, in a pool of each other.
Chapter XIII: No Going Back
We didn't sleep very long, just a nap really, to get our energy back, but still long enough that our bath had gone cold. I scooted off the end of the bed and sat there a while, my knees were still weak from Jakes' passions.
I managed to get up, walking over to the bath I pulled the plug, watching it empty, before placing it back in, and re-filling it warm so I could get clean again "Second times a charm" I laughed to myself.
Jake stirred on the bed, so I went over to greet him, sitting perched next to him, my feet on the floor.
"Hey girl" He smiled "Are you okay? I didn't do too much did I?" He said, brushing the front of my cage gently with his fingertips.
"No baby, It's just well.. I was clean once" I joked, leaning in and rubbing some of my stink onto him. I walked back over to the tub to test the temperature, climbing in, and started to wash myself again.
He got up and shook his arms, trying to calm himself and re-adjust his bones, he walked over and sat on the edge of the tub, watching me wash.
"What?" I laughed, asking if he was okay
"Nothing, I just like watching you" He said, kissing me passionately.
I loved him so much "Are you joining me again baby?"
"It's okay, you enjoy it in private, I'll just wait" He walked peacefully into our living room.
I wanted to really make an effort for him after that. But I didn't have anything special I could use. So I went to see Daddy
"Daddy?" I knocked on the door to his new office
"Come in my darling.. no no put the globe over there" Daddy was busy, he had stewards all over his room carrying things to and fro
"Room is looking good Daddy, so far at least"
"Was that sarcasm?" He smiled
"What? no Daddy, I mean it" He kissed me
"So what do you want?"
"Umm, well I wanted to make an effort, for Jake. he's being so nice, but I don't have any.. well, make-up and stuff.. and theres another thing"
He knelt down in front of me and I whispered in his ear about my little "hair" problem
"Aah, we can sort that out, no problem, just give Daddy a little time and I'll sort the whole thing"
I left him to sort out his office, and returned back to Jake, who by this time had washed himself and was ready for bed, he had taken the bottom sheet off and replaced it with a fresh new one. The tv we had at the bottom of the bed was on, and he seemed interested in whatever was on, laughing freely.
I stripped down to my shorts, and climbed in, his arm was already up waiting for me, so I slid up to him, and placed my head on him, one of my arms curled up on his chest, the other tucked in underneath, I turned to face the tv.
Jake said nothing, he just pulled me close, and kissed my head, grabbing my left hand with his right, stroking the back of my hand with his thumb.
I felt so happy, "I could stay here forever" I thought to myself, laughing at the comedy that we were watching. I knew Jake loved my laugh, every time I did he hugged me tight, and I would always kiss his neck to thank him.
We stayed for the rest of the night, Watching whatever was on until we were too tired. I climbed over Jake, putting him on my left hand side, and cuddling up to him, my one leg over his, my favourite position, my nose buried under his chin. And we slept.
I woke in the morning to another letter, only this time it read "Lyra" instead of Ash.
"How do they even do that" I shook my head, wondering how they managed to sneak a letter into my room without either of us hearing. Jake was still asleep like before.
"Lyra, there is a car waiting outside for you, it will take you somewhere special"
I got dressed quietly, and took a plain piece of paper from the desk, writing it to "Jake"
I explained I was going to be out all day, but I was coming back with a surprise for him, and not for him to worry.
I left and got into the car.
"Are you ready Miss Lyra?" The driver asked
"Where are we going?"
"Mr. Ellory said to take you shopping, and then to the clinic" explained the driver
"A clinic?.. Okay, i'm ready!"
We pulled off and headed into Greymarsh, deeper this time, to the west side, the opposite side of the city, where I had never been before. We stopped in a multi-story car park, right on the roof.
The driver got out and opened my door "This way please, miss Lyra"
I felt so awkward, but I tried to enjoy it.
I followed the driver down the stairs, and into the building that joined onto the car park. It was a giant shopping mall, they had every type of shop imaginable, but especially clothes. All the big names were there, even Liglis.
"They have a Liglis here?" I was surprised.
"We will be heading somewhere else miss Lyra" The driver said, escorting me past the shops and into the biggest store there. Paphian
It was a women's clothing store of great quality, there were rolls upon rolls of all the different kinds of fabrics, in all the colors and designs you could dream of, designers and tailors were all around.
As soon as I entered a designer was there to greet me "Welcome to Pathian, what can I help you with today"
"Erm, I need some dresses" I could barely look him in the eye, I know Jake and the other boys all saw me as a girl, but these were strangers who didnt know about me at all, I worried they could tell I was a boy.
"Come right this way! Do you know what you're after? What type do you normally wear?"
I didn't have a clue "This is my first time, so I dont know anything"
"Then let me show you around" The designer took me around the store, showing me every kind of clothing they had, shorts, short skirts, long skirts, cut skirts, short dresses, long dresses, all the kinds of tops and blouses, and jumpers, and jackets, scarves, hats, camisoles? "what the hell is a camisole" I laughed to myself.
We spent an hour just looking at all the types, and that wasnt even half of it, we also had to through all the different materials and patterns and colors.
"What's the occasion?" Asked the designer
"Just looking special for my boyfriend, and I guess a sort of anniversary"
"What about this" He held up a long dress in front of me, down to my ankles
"I prefer something shorter" The designer winked, and held a short ruffle skirt up to me.
"Have you got a dress with this on?" He held up a beautiful dress, it was a sort of vest top part, with long lace sleeves, and a ruffle bottom, short, but not too short.
"That's perfect!"
We took it over to the next bench, and started pulling sheets of fabric out from the wall, laying them next to the dress so we could see, and compare them to find the best one.
There were so many, but I was able to feel them all. Lace was nice, but it was pretty see through, and would have rubbed eventually, some were really shiny, too shiny, like a rubber. But finally I settled on one, I kept the sleeves lace, but the rest was rayon, it swished about, smooth to the touch, but not so shiny as to be waterproof. I had it done in Valentines Day red, like all the candy hearts they have everywhere.
The designer took me into a booth, and measured me, he was so respectful and cared only about his job. It was a little bit of a giveaway that I was a boy, not only did I have my flat chest, but a massive boy-ish lump where my cage was. He measured me everywhere, even my cage, so he knew exactly how much material he needed to cover it up. He didn't ask me anything about it.
It didn't take them that long, maybe an hour and the dress was finished, I slipped it on in the changing rooms, while the Steward paid, It was my most favourite thing ever, the way it felt made me even more confident about being Lyra, but it was still missing a little something.
"We need make-up" I said to the Steward as we left, and he took me straight into a boutique.
The women behind the counter knew exactly why I was there, and gave me the most beautiful make over, taking it really slowly, and showing and telling me everything they were doing so I could do it myself at home, even letting me do some of it myself for practice.
All the eyeliner and mascara around my eyes felt weird, but the stuff on my skin wasn't that bad, I didn't need much to cover it up, there weren't really any blotches or anything on my face they needed to hide, just to make it fairer and more even colored.
They put lipstick on me, the same color as the dress. I pouted in the mirror, it felt sticky, but looked amazing, and they said it would at first, but eventually it would dry out, and I wouldn't tell after a while. They were right.
I was pretty much all done then, they gave me loads of the makeup they had used, and a few other colors and things thrown in too, in case I wanted a change.
But now came the final part. The Clinic.
Chapter XIV: The Clinic
It was quite far to the Clinic, back on the other side of the city, it was at an old Manor house, and I didn't have a clue what was there.
"Hello, Lyra?" The receptionist asked as soon as we entered. I nodded "We've been expecting you"
I followed her through to the room where the doctor was, and she sat me down on a trolley, holding the button and hoisting it up to the doctors level
"Hi Lyra, do you know why you are here?" The doctor asked
"Nuhhuh" I shook my head
"This procedure will remove all of your unwanted hair, but I have to tell you, it is permanent, once it is done, you won't ever have hair grow again" He went to some lengths explaining, what the laser was made of, and how it worked, and how hair reacted to it. "Are you sure you are ready?, it will sting a bit"
"I'm ready"
I lay back as he started on my feet, counting down every time he was going to zap a hair. It came really sharp, but I just closed my eyes and thought of Jake, every time it zapped I saw an image of him, some of just him smiling, others of us together, and seeing the love in his eyes. It hurt a lot, but it was going to be worth it, not just for Jake, but for me too. I loved feeling pretty, and being smooth, it amplified the sensation of touching, there was nothing to get in the way.
It took forever, several hours, and my skin was as red as my dress, and burning "That's it for today" The Doctor said, handing me a tube of cream. "Put this on every day, in the morning and before you go to sleep, and I'll see you next week"
"Next.. week?"
"We need to see you another two or three times, just to make sure it's all gone" He explained, lowering the trolley down so I could get off.
My skin was on fire, but my legs felt different, the skin was different.
We got back to the Mansion in the evening, just in time for dinner, I didn't expect the welcome I got.
Everyone said how beautiful I was, even the boys who didn't see me as a girl, did now I had my dress and makeup. I sat in my normal place at the table, not at the end or anywhere special, just ate normally.
Jake was shocked too, he couldn't believe how lucky he was that he had me. After dinner we went back to our room, and he paid so much attention to me, making sure he didn't crease my clothes, or undo any of my make-up, even when he kissed me he was even more gentle than normal, so he didn't smear my lipstick. And then with my skin being so sensitive after the treatment.
"You don't have to be that gentle" I explained "It wont rub off"
I showed him the cream I had too, and told him I would have to go back a few more times, realising he would have to keep his hands to himself for a little while. "Every night?" He said, reading the instructions on the back of the cream
"Yuhhuh" I nodded
He came behind me and unzipped my dress, slipping it off over my shoulders, and hanging it neatly "Lie down Lyra" And I did.
He took some cream and massaged me with it, it had to be done, but he made it sexual, knowing we couldn't do anything more ambitious, he did as much to please me as he could. And really all he could do was massage me with the cream "I'll do this for you, whenever you need it, okay?.. I mean, if you'll let me"
I smiled "Of course baby" I felt so much better when he finished, my skin was calm and soft. And we slept just as we always did. Only this time it felt better, not only was I more sensitive to his touch, but mentally we both felt much happier. It wasn't fair it was only us being this happy though. And soon that would be about to change.
Chapter XV: Rinse and Repeat
By the time I had to go back to the clinic, daddies' office was finished. And me and Jake had officially moved out of our rooms and into our new one. Everyone knew me as Lyra now, even any new boys. Everyone looked to me as the second in command, but I couldn't run anything, I didn't know about business or anything, and how to get people what they wanted. So I spoke to Daddy.
"Hey Daddy?" I knocked his door, opening it and poking my head round.
"Come in, Lyra, how are you today?"
"Good Daddy, i've been to the clinic again, only one more time.. erm, Daddy?" I paused "Where do you get your money from"
"We get it from lots of places" He explained, "We have lots of shares, and lots of different buildings we own, that people pay us to use" Dad brought out loads of charts, and folders filled with pages and numbers and account details. None of it made any sense to me.
"Do we have enough?" I enquired
"Enough for what?" Daddy asked, expecting me to ask for something else.
"Just... enough, you know... do we need more or can we just stop?"
"We'll always need enough to pay the Stewards, and keep the Mansion looking nice, and keep buying food and things like that, anything else is a bonus" Daddy explained.
"Thanks Daddy" I left.
"How can I make money?" I pondered.
At that a few boys approached me, "Miss Lyra? Can we ask you something?"
"You don't have to call me "miss", just Lyra, what is it?"
"It's just... tell her, tell her" They whispered to a shy boy at the back, "It's just our friend here, doesn't like his room and...
I approached the boy and pulled him close, whispering in his ear "It's okay, tell me what you dont like, and I'll see if I can fix it" I comforted him by stroking his shoulder, and he whispered back.
"I. don't like being a boy" He said shyly "Well, dressed like one, I want to be like you"
I walked him to his room, and left his friends to go, walking in his room it was bluer than blue. It had football motifs everywhere "What's your name" I asked, expecting him to tell me his boys name.
"Samantha" he said, hiding away.
I took him upstairs to mine and Jakes living room, and sat him down "Wait here" I said, leaving him to look around in awe. I returned with all of my make-up, and some of the hot pants and tops I got from Liglis, but hadn't managed to wear yet.
"Makeover time!" I said excitedly, Samantha was excited too.
I did her makeup like I was shown at the store, and re-applied some of my own. We were laughing at joking the whole time, talking about how we felt being dressed that way, and what we thought of some of the boys.
We spent hours trying on different clothes, and made really good friends, it was nice having someone else like me to talk to. Sam was beautiful too, more exotic looking than me, with her dark hair.
I took her hand and walked her down to see Daddy. She was even more nervous that I was when Jake took me to see him as Lyra, but I knew it would all be okay
"Look who i've found Daddy" I screamed, standing behind Sam. Dad was just as nice and sweet to her as he was to me.
"Wow, another gorgeous girl, I bet you two have had fun getting dressed up"
"Yes Daddy! but well, her room isn't very lady-like"
Daddy nodded with a "Hmm.. Bring everyone to the dining hall would you Lyra, we need to decide something"
I was scared of what it might be. But I did as I was told, and told everyone I saw to meet in the hall, getting them to tell everyone else, until we were all there.
Me, Sam, Jake and Ellory all stood at the front, as Daddy started his speech
"Now we have another girl amongst us, We're going to have to change the rules"
Mutters ran around the room, Panic
"Let me finish. I'm issuing everybody the key to their cages, Nobody will have to wear them, unless they want to. If you want to be a boy and keep your cage, you can, if you want to be a boy without a cage, you can do that too. Same applies to girls with cages, and girls without. And as part of this, everyone will be allowed to change rooms to be closer to their friends, or boyfriends and girlfriends. And everyone can have their room painted accordingly. That's it"
Everyone cheered and the room filled with applause. I turned to Jake and winked, giving Samantha a hug at the same time.
By the next day, everything had changed, there were Stewards everywhere, painting, decorating, moving furniture, there was van after van parked outside ferrying people to Liglis so they could get clothes to suit whatever type of person they had chosen to be.
There were also a lot more "girls" around, but I was still the best, still numero uno.
Chapter XVI: The Plan
We were allowed a lot more free reign now, and many of the boys took advantage of it. We could still only go into Greymarsh on the weekends, But many of us from the Mansion got themselves girlfriends and boyfriends from Greymarsh, rather than being with somebody from the Mansion.
Least of all was Kyle.
"When did you get a girlfriend Kyle?" Asked Jake as we hung around outside Liglis.
"Yesterday, she just saw me and said she fancied me so, yeah"
"What's her name?" I asked. Kyle seemed distracted
"Erm. Lucy" It didn't seem to be the truth, and I automatically thought it must have been a boy rather than a girl. But then we saw her, and she was a girl, a real girl, not like me or Sam
They kissed in front of us, laughing, but they both seemed apart from each other, they obviously had some in-joke, but they didn't love each other, that was obvious, not like me and Jake.
The Mansion carried on changing, everyone was evolving into their respective groups, The Boys without their cages grew up, and became more protective and outgoing, and the boys with cages became quieter, and were always just in pairs or small groups. Always respecting the boys without their cages, being submissive to them almost.
Another week went by, and we all went back to Greymarsh, Kyle was with a completely different girl.
"What happened to Lucy?" Me and Jake pressed
"Who?" Kyle was winking at loads of girl as they walked past
"L.u.c.y" I pressed harder
"Oh.. yeah we erm.. it didn't work out, now i'm with Amber"
I swore he was making these names up, and then I realised.
"You're just having sex with them aren't you!?" I snapped, but trying to keep quiet
"What is that true Kyle?" Jake was shocked
"Yeah.. okay its true. But you guys have done it, you know how good it feels, from both sides" Kyle explained "They all want it, it's like there are no decent boys in this town, and all the girls need me"
"But you aren't being decent, using them like that"
"I'm not using them, i'm always so nice to them the entire time, and i'm always safe, thats why they always thank me after"
"You should charge them.." Jake said laughing, before cutting himself short, fearing I would chastise him for saying it.
"You're right" I had a lightbulb moment "We should all charge them"
"What!?" Kyle and Jake gasped
"How many looks do we all get when we come here, boys and girls in Greymarsh want to be with us, so we should be with them, but just not for free" I explained
"Nahh, they might just want you, but not me" Jake shook his head.
"You kidding? Girls are always checking you out, I see them doing it all the time, I'm a girl remember, I notice these things, I have to make sure you're all mine" I gestured my head to show him where some girls were in fact checking him out "Why do you think I never let go of your hand while we're here"
Jake leant me back, feeling like I was about to fall, but holding me steady and kissed me passionately, showing the girls I was the only one for him.
"See" I whispered. Jake pulled me tight, saying sorry for what I had to put up with.
"So we get people like Kyle, to go out with them, but we make a load of money doing it, but we can do it with boys too, and bring Girls from the mansion to be with them, or the boys in cages to be with them, just whoever it interested, but we need to be safe, really safe"
When we returned to the mansion, I told Daddy about my plan.
"Do you think the boys will like it?" Daddy asked, unsure I could get it to work
"They are already doing it Daddy, but this way we can make sure they are doing it properly, and make sure they are safe, not just that way, but safe as in they aren't getting beat up or robbed or anything"
"I'll leave it to you then Lyra, my amazing daughter" Daddy stroked my cheek with his thumb
"Daddy, stop" I smiled and ran to work out the details.
I sat for ages, writing down all my thoughts, everything we would need, where we would go, and how we would get there, how often. But the thing that was the hardest, was the names for the groups. I couldn't exactly call them "Boys with cages" so I had to think of a term for them, but one they would like, and wouldn't make them seem any less important than the other groups.
And of course, we needed a style. Something that would show Greymarsh who we were, and so they could take one look at us, and know what group we were from. We needed a uniform.
Chapter XVII: The New Rules
I wrote it all down, all the steps, all of the new terms.
Boys Were now what we would call boys from the mansion that didnt wear their cages, and wanted to stay that way. And they should look smart, with trousers, and wear a blazer.
Tomgirls Were the submissive boys, who still dressed as boys, but would keep their cages on. They would look smart too, but young and fun, with shorts and caps
The Girls were like me, boys who dressed as girls, and kept their cages on. We would wear hot pants or shorts, with stockings.
And the Newhalfs were those girls who didnt wear their cages. They would always wear nice dresses, and proper-heeled shoes.
We would keep a huge diary, and anytime anyone went out they would sign it, and where they were going, and when they came back, they would sign back in, and put how much money they had made.
Everyone was to get a mobile. So if they were ever scared, or there was an emergency, or someone was after them, or even just too tired, they could call the Stewards for help, or a lift, for anything they could need
I wrote it all down and showed it to Daddy.
He was impressed by how well I had done it Youll be having my job soon He laughed
He made a copy of it all, one for me, and one to go in his files, I called everyone to the hall and told them all the news.
This is the new Mansion, our Mansion, and we need to protect it, and the best way to do that, Is to show everybody who we are
Everyone was so excited, especially Kyle, he looked over at me and nodded, happy at the new rules I wanted to set. Nobody was missed out, and nobody cared that I was the one making the rules, they just all knew me as Lyra the Masters daughter, and that I was sort of¦ second in command.
The day after we had box after box come to the mansion, containing all the uniforms for everyone there, there were loads of different styles and of course all of the sizes. But the colors were all similar, all reds and pinks, just like the wine.
Everyone got a mobile too. With a set pin number for each one, which we wrote down in the book next to everyones real name, and then whatever name they wanted to be called. 0001, 0002 all the way up to the near eighty boys we had living here.
The weekend rule still applied. But that first weekend was such a party, we made sure everybody came to see us in all of our new sexy clothes. Me and Jake dressed up for the occasion too. Everyone else went around, person to person, telling them what we were aiming to do. People that were our age were excited, and a few older ones, but a lot of the adults werent happy at all.
They thought we had been forced into this Prostitution and it was Lewd and wrong. But we didnt see it like that, yes we were doing sexual things for money, but it was our choice, our idea. We were happy being able to share our selves and our youth and energy with anybody we wanted to. A few people we even said no to, because they didnt understand why we were doing it. They just thought they could buy us and do what they liked. But they were wrong.
