Ch 73: Curiosity killed the cat.

Alice was at the end of her rope.

A week. For a whole week now, she had been forced to wear that damned chastity belt most of the time and been mercilessly teased by it.

The belt got quiet for seven hours every night, but despite her fatigue, Alice couldn’t just start sleeping right away. It took at least an hour or two for her body to cool down and for her to be able to fall asleep.

At school, she was able to not think of it too much. She could somehow manage to focus when in class, but during breaks, the desire to cum, and the frustration of not being able to, came back. And when she returned home… She could not stop herself from securing the belt on herself, and her torment started again.

She wanted to cum. Heavens, she wanted to cum!

And there was something even worse. Something she found out after a few days of this torment, but fought hard to not admit to herself.

She liked this.

She actually liked wanting to cum, and being unable to. Alice wasn’t previously aware she had some masochistic tendencies, but her ordeal had brought them to light. Being denied was now starting to thrill her. Several times, she had been tempted to insert her fingers between the black metal of the belt and her skin. She knew she would only receive a shock and five more days, and yet, she was still tempted to do it.

To distract herself, she participated in the house cleaning even if she barely could do anything. Claire, Rui and Hisui were doing most of the work, but they didn’t mind and advised her to rest. But Alice wasn’t going to just let them do the work as she wallowed in self-pity. She had cleaned her room, two others that were yet unoccupied, and as she finished the last one, she found herself in front of Noah’s bedroom.

She hesitated for an instant, as he had mentioned that he would clean his room himself, so there was no need for her to enter. But, maybe there was something inside? Something that he didn’t want discovered?

Since Noah had not actually forbidden any of his maids from entering, Alice decided to take a chance. At worst, she would distract herself a few minutes from her torment. The bedroom was nicely furnished, with the giant bed dominating the room.

Alice sat on the bed, finding it to have a nice balance of firmness and softness, then started her investigation. It only took her a few moments to find a wooden box at the bottom of the closet.

Alice took the box to the bed and opened it. Inside were a number of items that she couldn’t make much sense of at first, but then she realized that the box contained bondage gear.

She sighed as she started rifling through, examining the items one by one and guessing how they were supposed to be used. She should not have been surprised. Of course a pervert putting chastity belts on his maids would also want to tie them up.

One item from the box, in particular, attracted her attention. One part of it was a black rubber penis. It seemed very thick to Alice’s amateurish eyes, and that phallus was connected to a wide panel of black leather, from which several straps hung out.

For a moment, Alice thought it to be some kind of small, weird chastity belt, but it seemed far too small.

As she manipulated the item, she suddenly understood that the penis was supposed to fill her mouth, and the straps would surround her head.

The realization made her blush intensely. She started to imagine herself wearing it. Her mouth filled by the obscene rubber cock, the black leather pressed against her lower face, depriving her of speech...

The thought made her pussy clench.

Would Noah put it on her one day? That was likely.

Alice looked at the door for a few seconds. The odds that Hisui, Claire or Rui would barge in were very low, as they were busy with housecleaning, and they would assume she was in her room.

Alice was curious about how wearing this gag would feel, and she opened her mouth, bringing the gag closer to her face. She struck her tongue out and made a tentative lick. It tasted like rubber, which was hardly surprising, but it wasn’t really unpleasant. She slowly pushed the gag in, until the leather panel was pressed against her lips and cheeks. The rubber penis stopped just short of triggering her gag reflex, but felt huge in her mouth, depressing her tongue.

“Mmph.” softly moaned Alice in the gag. Alice imagined herself gagged and bound, at the mercy of her Mas… Kensei. Why had she first thought about Noah, when her heart belonged to Kensei? Still, the thought excited her, and she decided not to think about it for now.

Alice dimly realized that she should stop now, take the gag out of her mouth, put the box back on the closet and forget about it, as it only made her more aroused and her torment harder to endure… But she didn’t. Her newfound masochistic tendencies were in full swing now, and instead of getting the rubber phallus out of her mouth, she reached for the straps to fasten them around her head.

It took her a bit of fumbling, but she secured the gag. The smooth black leather of the gag covered her lips, cupped her chin, and adhered to her cheeks like a second skin, kept in place by a wide strap tightly fastened behind her head, while two thinner straps on each side of her nose merged into one, forming an inverted Y, and joined with the other straps on the back.

“Mphph” moaned Alice again. She was thrilled by her powerlessness, and fondled her breasts for a moment before she decided to take another of the items inside the box.

It was a black leather collar with four D-rings in front, back and the sides, easily three times as wide as the choker Noah made his maids wear. It looked like it could cover her whole throat, maybe even restrict her ability to turn her head.

Alice quickly removed her choker and started fastening the collar in its place. The leather, snug against her throat and restricting her ability to look down or turn her head, gave her a strong oppressive feeling, and it made her even more excited.

Alice walked to the attached bathroom and took a good look at herself in the mirror. The leather bondage made a pleasant contrast against her pale skin and golden hairs.

Entranced by her reflection, she started fondling herself, one needy hand pressing on her belt through the skirt of her maid outfit.

As she did, she thought about the long black latex gloves and the leather cuffs in the box, and decided to try them on as well.

Putting on the gloves took some work, but she had to admit that they looked just as good on her as they did on Claire. She spent some time rubbing the creases out, and it felt good. Claire had previously admitted to her in private that she had grown to like wearing latex gloves, and Alice felt like they were already growing on her, too.

She took the two wide, black leather cuffs, linked together by a short chain, and was just done fastening the first around her left wrist, when three people suddenly appeared in the room.

Alice flinched and turned toward them, her eyes widening in absolute horror. She instantly recognized Suzu and Noah, and the third one could only be Suzu’s twin sister.

“Oh my.” said Noah, noticing her.

“Alice is being naughty.” said Suzu. She made a thumbs up at her.

“Ah, Alice, is this Kaede, Suzu’s sister. Kaede, this is Alice, one of my new maids.” said Noah.

“Hi, nice to meet you.” grinned Kaede.

All Alice could manage was a weak nod, as the humiliation froze her thought processes.

“Were you perhaps trying to give a nice surprise to Master? If so, I’m sorry for spoiling it.” said Kaede.

“That's doubtful. Alice's relationship with me isn't that far along yet. But it is still a nice surprise indeed. Suzu, Kaede, would you mind giving me some alone time with Alice?” asked Noah.

“Yes, Master. Come, Sis. I'll introduce you to the others. Then we'll go to my room." Suzu glanced one last time at Alice as she took her sister's hand and left the room.

Noah followed them to the door, closed it, and engaged the lock.

Alice made a step back when Noah walked to her, her face flushed in humiliation.

"Mphpht." she protested as he raised his hands to her face.

"Calm down, I'm removing it."

Noah quickly undid the straps and gently removed the gag.

"Do you need water?"

"No... Can you, just forget about this, please?" pleaded Alice.

Noah smiled as he shook his head.

"No can do. I'm a bad guy after all, and this opportunity is just too good to pass up. Why were you rifling through this stuff?"

Alie groaned and looked at him with fiery eyes.

"It's all your fault, you bastardo pervertito! You made me this way! You and that maledetto belt!"

The belt informed her she had earned three more days, but she didn't care and kept her attention on Noah.

Noah smiled and hugged her, caressing her left cheek.

"My naughty maid needs to be punished for going through her Master's stuff. But before that… Alice, do you want to cum?"

As if by reflex, Alice opened her mouth to tell him no, but the word couldn't get out of her throat.

Eventually, she made a small nod.

"If you want it, I will let you cum, but are you sure?" said Noah, still smiling. "You must be aware that if you ask me even once, you will have established a precedent, making it harder to endure as long as you did the first time. You will have made an irrevocable step toward submitting to me completely."

"…I know." muttered Alice, staring at him with a mix of resignation and lust.

"…But I need it… I can't take this any longer."

"Then I'll give you what you need."

Noah started removing Alice's maid outfit and she didn't try to stop him. He then removed the belt, and Alice would have started touching herself immediately if not for Noah seizing her arms and fastening the other cuff around her right wrist, pinning her arms behind her back.

She was half-naked, wearing only the collar, the latex gloves, the white cotton stockings and the low-heeled black leather pumps.

He hugged her from behind, one hand on her breasts while the other snaked down between her thighs.

"I have seen your expression when you earned three more days for yourself, Alice. You like this, don't you? You like being in my control. Am I wrong?" he breathed in her ear, making her shiver with pleasure.

"…Are you really going to make me say it? How far are you going to torment me before you're satisfied?" complained Alice. But even she heard the lust in her voice.

"You're so cute, Alice. Cum for me. Cum for your Master."

Noah plunged two fingers into her needy pussy, and rubbed both and clit and G-spot simultaneously, and she came, hard.

"Awww!!!" groaned Alice, her mind going white as she finally experienced the orgasm she had been denied the whole week. The pleasure she felt was far more intense than anything she ever felt using her own hands. Noah kept moving his finger to extend her orgasm as she convulsed in his arms.

When she came down from it, gasping for air, she was barely conscious.

Noah carefully laid her on the bed, removed the leather cuffs, and sat beside her as she recovered.

Blushing and refusing to look at him, she removed the collar and the gloves, stood and headed for the bathroom.

"Alice, once you're done showering, come back naked, and we'll discuss your punishment." said Noah.

"Urgh." she groaned as she closed the door behind her.

Nearly twenty minutes later, she came back from the bathroom, hiding her crotch and breast with her hands, and stared at him defiantly.

"W-What are you going to do?" she asked with trepidation.

Noah picked up the chastity belt he had cleaned up and stood, approaching her. Alice sighed as she slightly parted her legs and let him put the belt on her again.

"Your punishment will be in two parts, my naughty maid. First, we're going to add latex gloves to your everyday uniform, and you will join Claire for the occasional lap pillow and ASMR duty… As for the second half…"

Alice watched his hands warily as mana appeared and coalesced into a solid shape above his palms.

A bra, made of smooth black metal. Immediately recognizing the purpose of that bra, Alice shook her head in fear, while her body reacted with a shiver of pleasure and anticipation.

"I am going to give you this, Alice. As you have surely guessed, this is a chastity bra, to complete the set. It will tease you like the belt does. But, I am not making you wear it. That will be your decision." he said with a sly grin.

Alice blinked, wondering why he had created this bra if he gave her the option not have it locked on her.

It took her a few seconds to understand. He wanted to make her admit she actually liked his bullying and ask for more!

"Do you really believe that I am going to use it?" she finally asked, doing her best to hide the anticipation she felt.

"I do, actually. You have tasted the pleasure I could give you, my cute Alice. And you like being under my control. Once you submit to me and truly accept me as your Master, you will be free to experience that pleasure a lot more."

He stood and hugged her gently.

"I'll leave you alone, get dressed and put the bra in your closet, until you choose to use it. Keep in mind, that if you put the bra on even once, it will become part of your uniform, to be removed only when you have to go outside, until you submit to me, or your time is over. We both know which of those outcomes will come first."

Alice looked away, unwilling to admit it.

When Noah left the room, Alice sighed, and quickly got dressed in her maid uniform, and put on the latex gloves. She took the belt and, after checking no one was in the hallway, quickly got into her room.

She sat on the bed and stared at the bra in her hands, thinking about the words Suzu had said to her last week.

'You will grow to love how screwed you are.'

She had discounted that outrageous claim as being insulting, back then. But now, she realized Suzu had simply been honest, as they had asked her to be. Maybe this was a normal reaction, or maybe Suzu had noticed something in her that Alice herself wasn't aware of, but Suzu had been honest. Alice would have to apologize to her for not taking her seriously.

Alice shook herself, opened her closet and quickly shoved the chastity bra in a corner. She needed to stop thinking about it, before the masochistic temptation to put it on overwhelmed her reason, like it had done with the penis gag earlier.

And as she remembered the gag, and the feelings of powerlessness and humiliation it gave her, and the overwhelming pleasure Noah's fingers had given her, her arousal grew again.
