Last Saturday night, I attended an exclusive and very private party. A dominant Lady friend of mine had decided to invite a select few lifestyle couples to witness the branding of her 24/7 slave. Champagne was served to the ladies by another guest’s full-time TV maid as our hostess explained that before she burned her mark into her slave, each of the 5 mistresses present would have the opportunity to abuse each of the 5 slaves. This was done in a circle, the mistresses seated in beautiful ornate chairs. Each slave had to crawl from one mistress to the next on the signal of our hostess who had procured a delicate antique silver bell for the purpose. I felt it was quite symbolic that the inner wheel of tormented slaves slowly turned until it had returned to its original position like a clock ticking down. At this point, the lady of the house led her slave into the centre of the circle where a low, sturdy table stood. On the table were the branding shapes, pliers and a blow torch. All those present had immediately noticed these stark and simple instruments as we had sat down to form the circle. We were now to see them used.
The slave was placed on the table face down and the other 4 slaves were ordered to hold him steady. There was utter silence as the torch roared. The erotic tension built as the metal began to glow. A last steely look from the Mistress and then the kiss of hot metal was performed. There was a surprisingly long pause before the inevitable scream from the now permanently owned slave. This was repeated 3 – times in order for the branded pattern to be completed.
We all applauded and the atmosphere changed to one of joy and we all congratulated her on her work. The brand, a personal and symbolic design had been placed on his left buttock, and it looked so lovely and simple yet so cruel – anyone who saw it would immediately know it for what it was – a mark of permanent ownership.
