Run

Seb POV:

Bringing Kris home while she still had tear marks on her makeup was a risk.

One I hoped would be mitigated by us texting Liz before hand.

Being what I should have been for Kris all along was worth it.

When we were done cuddling her and trying to love her like she deserved instead of how I used to show it I put both girl in the car to cuddle and nap on the way to Liz's.

I never dared hope something like this would be possible.

That Kris would not only trust me enough for any of this, or that she could ever see Sarah as a source of safety and comfort.

When we got there I had Sarah get the doors as I carried a still sleeping Kris.

Thankfully Liz understood these were good tears, when I handed her off.

Sadly Alice did not and I'm damn sure she would have gone to jail that night had Liz not been in the middle of playing with her when we got there.

I have never seen rage that pure on someone's face that far into subspace.

I grabbed Sarah and retreated, there was no way Alice would listen enough to let us explain, I'd leave that to Kris and Liz.

Damn that girl had a strong set of lungs.

Slave Alice POV:

Free and locked up at the same time, the only way Liz ever let me out now.

She'd check in with me previously without all this, but I guess what I did to Kris was worth extra caution.

I could see just how scared Liz was that I'd find some way to hurt her otherwise.

She had it all wrong though, Kris was mine now, just as much as she was Liz's or Aly's.

I only wanted to hurt her in one specific way, it was how she proved her love for me as something more than just baggage tied to who they really loved.

Telling her that did little to calm her.

"If she is your's why do you want to hurt her at all?!"

"Because its something she wouldn't do for anyone else now, I'm not a good person Liz, Aly made me to protect her, I've grown beyond that but morality is for people, not up jumped guard dogs like me. Be happy she convinced me she and my other half wasn't the enemy. Now I'm the only one allowed to hurt either of them."

"You won't be allowed to hurt them either Slave."

"Exactly, that's the game we are playing and why its so much fun. You believe that, or you want to so hard I can't tell the difference, but you see, I believe that at some point I'll get to slip the leash again. If she's been good I won't even hurt her or Aly that much. Just enough to check. Even wrapped in everything you and Aly did to trap me and control me, I still have a hand on both your subs that you can't remove."

"Why shouldn't I just cut my loses and run you out of town, you know how serious I am about protecting what's mine."

"Oh don't play coy with me like that, we've been inside each others heads a bit too much for that. You more than me, but I've seen how you tick. Aly is yours and even me, with everything, I can see in your eyes I'm still your brat, that you can bring back in line. You'll let the risk run, because you can fix Kris if there's a fuck up, but you can't fix running us out of town."

"I see."

"I knew you would, now help Aly put your mental chains back on me and lets play~"

'This session would be amazing, I've really rattled her, and while I would love to inflict what she has planned on someone else, I was as much a masochist as a sadist. I'd never dish out anything I couldn't take. Its one of the things I was pissed at Aly for, she would have done more to Kris than she could handle.

She really did lean on me too much for such things, there was a reason Aly wasn't allowed to be in any scenes or even play at anything more than light petting, couldn't handle anything more than that without me there to lift the load.

Those two really did miss out when they fumbled each other, would have been the cutest Ace/Ace lesbian couple if they had just talked about it instead of being scared of what the other would think.

But then they, and by extension me, would have missed out on all this fun, so I'd cut her some slack on that.

AND only that.'

"No, I don't think that would be good for either of you two. You are right about the way I see you, so maybe I should start acting like it."

"What?" What was she talking about, she already was, that's how I figured it out.

"Me and you will be going out, just like I do with Kris and Aly. Then I'll make love to you and let you cry into me during aftercare."

"NO! You won't! Fuck that! Do some Dom shit! Wheres the hot in charge Top energy that made me fall for you both times?! Where's the woman I let tame me?! Don't you hate how I act how I'm a threat to your favorites!? Ripe my agency away and take it out on me!"

"Nopppe." Oh this bitch, she learned that from MY 'Risa.

"WHY THE FUCK NOT!"

"Because that's what you want."

"AND SO DO YOU! ITS WHY THIS FUCKING WORKS!"

"But, its not what you need. Besides shouldn't a scene like that be a reward? I knew you liked them some what, but this level of reaction, its more than just like, isn't it?"

One thing that always pissed me off and made me jealous of Liz was how put together she was and how hard it was to get her to break composure, I needed protocol training to even get close and this bitch was just like that, built to drive me up the wall!

"Of course it is! You know how I like to treat others when the roles are reversed! I'd never dish out what I couldn't take!"

"Its more than that too, keep going."

"Fuck you!'

"Later, now answer."

"Fine. You. Bitch." Biting my answer at her also does nothing, fridge bitch when she wants to be. "Its the only thing that makes me feel anything, is when its mixed with the pain. All the fluffy, gooey, soft, and Bullshit, you all throw around so often just rolled off me and went to miss precious princess, anything more painful than that was all I was feed for years, its all I am. All I know! Or at least it was until you split me and Aly, but I was already addicted to it. Love by way of lash. I need it and you will give it to me, no matter how I have to provoke you to get it. Unless you want to give me Kris for the night or maybe Sarah? I could live vicariously though them as I make them feel perfect."

"No, you will be good, you will be on your best behavior, you will earn what you want. I will give you what you need, evem if that's a refresher on aftercare. Its ok to be scared, but I've got you." I wish I had the range to bite her, she had the audacity to hug me after that.

How dare she hold me after rejecting me, telling me I need all that soft BS other me lives off of.

I'm not her, I'm not weak.

"I'-I'm stronger th-an this."

"Than why are you crying in relief?" Why was I crying, why does it feel some bad and good at the same time.

'I've never cried before, that was always Aly. What?'

"Its ok to be weak sometimes. My Cute. Precious. Trouble. Maker."

I broke in a completely different way at that.

From love untainted.

By the pain or myself.

Eventually she let go and cleaned me up from breaking, she was about to unlock me for what ever thing she was going to do to me, when the door opened to Sarah, followed by Seb holding a sleeping and recently crying Kris.

I may not have sorted through what just happened, but this, this I knew how to handle.

"What the fuck did you two reprobates do to MY KRIS! IF THERE's ONE HURT HAIR ON HER HEAD I'LL MOUNT YOU WHAT'S LEFT OF YOU WHEN I'M DONE ON THE CAMPUS ENTRANCE AS A WARNING TO ANYONE ELSE THAT GETS THE SMART IDEA TO-"

"Alice, Silence, now." Oh she there's the anger and frustration I've been trying to work on this last session.

Go get 'em Mistress.

Or not, wtf.

Wait was that anger directed at me?

She just let them leave and she was still giving me a dirty look.

Oh shit, Kris was awake now and shaking like a leaf.

Looking at me with fear.

Fear I'd normally savor if I caused it.

Now I just felt like shit.

I broke through the command, I needed to. I wasn't fully locked down into Slave, yet. "Sorry, Kris, di-didn't mea-n to sc-are you. Mistress Elizabeth, is sh-she ok?" Fuck that was hard, Aly was actually putting in work on that one, guess she thought I'd want to say something worse and hurt 'Risa.

"Yes she is, they are good tears, I'm sure she will give you both the details later. I'm proud of you, that couldn't have been easy for you..." She was right but why did that make her proud? "Now I think its time we all got ready for bed, you both have had hard days."

That feeling again, that warmth with out the cold...

I guess this was something I could learn to like, if I had to.

What was Liz doing? My triggers and inner lock down wasn't in place yet, does she not care if I hurt Kris?!

Strangely Aly stops me from asking or reminding Liz. WTH is going on.

'Aly you want to take over? I-I don't know if I can behave with out the lockdown and triggers.'

'No other, you earned this, no, neither of us believe that, you need it and I trust Liz and Kris.'

'oh'
