Reaffirming and testing

As I wake up with Anne in my arms, I look at Julia. Still sleeping on the floor. I lean in and ask: "So, how was your night on the floor? Not too cold?"

"No master, not too cold, uncomfortable but not too cold."

"You still need to do your 10 filmed punishment edges to be clear. I will make breakfast. Anne, you use her for your five edges now." I am greeted by a nod. As I head to finish baking the bread, I will also make a jam from all of the leftover unused berries. I can hear Anne order Julia around, good.

I open the app only to be greeted by a pop-up saying Julia developed a lezdom fetish, as well as cuckolding and neglect.

I decide to check on ranks. No need for a perk currently, I can assign ranks 1 through 5. Anne and Roos were 3, but I bumped them to 1; Julia is 4, and Pig is 5. Each has the option of rank-specific rules...

• Rank 4 and 5 need to edge 10 times and send me video proof, no matter if they live here or not.
• Ranks 4 and 5 need to serve any rank 1 as if they are master.
• Rank 5 always has to sleep on the floor
• Rank 1 is allowed to order ranks 4 & 5.
• Rank 1 can sit next to the master.
• Rank 1 is allowed to get pregnant by the master.
• 2-4 will take birth control medication unless the master tells them.

RuleError: last rule is a general rule with an exception for rank 1, which should be placed there. Since general rules need to be discussed, a servant rule was rejected.

• Rank 4 and 5 need to edge 10 times and send me video proof, no matter if they live here or not.
• Ranks 4 and 5 need to serve any rank 1 as if they are master.
• Rank 1 is allowed to order ranks 4 & 5.
• Rank 1 can sit next to the master.
• Rank 1 is allowed to get pregnant by the master.
• Rank 5 always has to sleep on the floor.

Okay, so the ones that did count saved. A non-general rule needs to encompass at most half, rounded up. Let's see... wait, there is a punishment log.

• Pig came XP reduced by 1
• Julia came, and the master administered appropriate punishment.
• Pig came XP reduced by 1
• Pig came XP reduced by 1
• Julia came, and the master administered appropriate punishment.
• Pig slept in bed. XP is reduced by 1 per hour of used furniture
• Pig has used money (50 euros) for non-allowed expenses outside of allowance. Xp reduced by 5
• Pig has had 5 infractions in 12 hours. An additional punishment quest is given. Walk around with one of the fetish items you bought for the master for 24 hours. No XP, no reward. Failure to comply within 48 hours reduces the level based on negative XP.

And it continues. Pig is not keeping to the rules. I text them. 'Hey, you keeping to all the rules? Have you cum without my permission?' No answer for 30 minutes whilst the yelling and edging in the bedroom continues. 'Piggy answer or I will change the pin codes.'

Now, an instant response, not an answer, but a response. 'Like you can.' I changed the PIN and texted her that she should check if her card works on non-contact. 'Wait, you can. Sorry, master, I came. I have paid for things with your money. I slept in a bed even though I wasn't allowed. to Plz change the PIN back.'

I chuckle as the other two join me for breakfast. Anne waits to sit; Julia moves automatically to sit. Anne stops her and raises an eyebrow. Julia looks surprised but pushes forward and takes a seat. "Anne, you can take a seat. Julia, you will sit on the floor with your back facing us."

"Why!?!" She protests. Anne asks her to explain the rules again. Julia's eyes widen. Curses and does she is told.

"Julia, you do get that this dom-sub thing you agreed to means you should keep our ground rules in mind as well as any other agreements?" She nods uncomfortably at the thought of how much she has given up for me. With a simple word. As they finish breakfast and head to work, I kiss Anne, and Julia fondles.

I open my phone to begin receiving messages from Pig wanting access to her PIN. 'I will give you your PIN if you complete a simple task and send me proof, Pig. Walk outside of your current residence naked in a pig costume for 2 hours, filmed. Otherwise, I don't give you your PIN.' She begs me for something easier. I respond. 'You can spend those 2 hours anywhere as long as you film it. If your phone can't handle it, you are allowed to buy a camera for it. Recording time minimum 4 hours, max as long as you can get. Price whatever you made since Sunday until you buy it. I won't give you your pin back.' She doesn't respond, but I don't need to give it back until I want to.

I also head to work, and I can stop by her tattoo shop. I look at the door, locked; she is not here. Good, she is either buying the camera or out filming. Both mean she is taking it seriously. As I enter, I see a girl in the office. Bright purple hair, covered in tattoos, no front service for her. I could assume she is Madelon. I get changed. By the time I am done, they come out. "Hello, I am Madelon Visser. I hear you are the one conducting the test, sir."

I roll my eyes. "Yes Madelon I am. I hope my face hasn't changed too much in the last 12 years. Jessica knows I am your brother. First try on the uniform for hygiëne purposes." I point her to a wall with sorted uniform pieces in all sizes. Now that I have seen her tattoos, most are just generic flowers, snakes and here and there an image from a TV show. Not the worst could have been humiliating like the girls had feared. She almost goes to undress here, but I point her to the women's dressing room.

"Jessica's first impressions?"

"She is more broken than when I found you."

"She has 10 years with my parents more, and a bunch of abusive boyfriends more than I had. But except for that?"

"She wants to work whole days. She wants stability. It might help her." Before Madelon comes back, I tell her about the hospital. She chuckles and says it will never happen.

Madelon returns. Jessica told me to instruct her to make 3 dishes for tonight: vegan curry, a pork stir-fry, and a chicken stew. I guide her through the three dishes with some fight, here and there, as to why something needs to happen. "Why should I grab a clean cutting board and wash my knife after chicken?" Stung didn't I ever cook chicken for her. She doesn't know how to cook. Picks up the skills well enough.

"You can start as soon as your brother can properly train you. Which means as soon as his fiancée is out of the hospital." Jessica says.

"Monday." I chime in.

"Monday," Jessica says with a knowing nod.

"Did Pieter give me this job?" Madelon questions. Jessica shakes her head.

"I like fixing broken things. He was when he came here first. Will you participate in leftovers starting Monday?" Jessica asks.

"Will he participate?" Madelon says, pointing at me.

"My fiancé will be home. Roos, we assume, has an involuntary neurological issue. I need to be home on time. Sorry, if you wanted, if not, nice for you. My advice is to eat here; it is better than something you cook up quickly at home." I chime in.

She nods. "Sure, I will join. Maybe ask Roos to join us?" Oh, she wanted me to join.

I glance at Jessica, who shakes her head. "Sorry, only people who work here can't cook for everyone's family. But hey, if you want me to eat alongside you. I can have someone else take care of Roos every once in a while." Madelon smiles from ear to ear.

I tilt my hand and raise it, she ducks away. "Madelon, do you want a hug?" Carefully, she approaches as I hug her. "Come, you wanted to get coffee and talk, right?" She nods, and we leave for the
