On Sundays, I share tidbits of my works in progress as part of Weekend Warrior’s 8-Sentence Sunday. This week, I continue with my latest project, a bondage fantasy titled Bound to Her Master.
Last week, Ti-Hana was preoccupied by the sight of her Master being primped by servants during a break at the slave games. Let's move straight ahead now, where intermission is over and it is at last time for Lord Stepanyan to reveal his beautiful slave to the waiting crowd.
The door
to the dressing area opened, and Lord Stepanyan paused at the threshold. The
din of thousands of conversations heightened briefly, and then stopped when he
stepped forward. Ti-Hana kept behind him, pressed to his back as close as she could considering her girth and his forward momentum. Silence swelled in the
air around her, and she knew all eyes were again focused on the arising
lordship and his entourage--including the pregnant slave who was again hidden
from view.
With a
flourish, Lord Stepanyan stepped aside, a cue for the guards behind her to
retreat into subtle obscurity. Then there she was, exposed to the scrutiny of
the crowd while wearing nothing but strands of gold chain threaded through her
hair and draped strategically over her body. The feel of eyes on her from every
direction brought the prickle of goose bumps, and when she caught sight of the
arena below, she gasped in shock. There she was, a fifty-foot specter looming
midair on some kind of supernatural Jumbotron, staring back
at herself with wide eyes and flushed cheeks. Apparently, she’d been deemed
enough of a curiosity to win fifteen seconds of big-screen fame. For the
first time since her arrival in this strange land, Ti-Hana saw the sensual beauty in her
pregnant form the way the gods saw it, and she stroked a hand slowly,
deliberately over the round of her abdomen.
So, what do you think?

Wow, great, vivid scene. Maybe she'll start getting an inkling of her own inherent power.
ReplyDeleteHm...she may indeed. Thanks for the feedback!
DeleteYou've put your heroine in a highly unusual situation. I have no clue what's likely to happen next.
ReplyDeleteI do so like putting characters in weird situations, LOL. Thank you for stopping by!
DeleteVery visual scene, I can feel her uncertainty followed, almost, by awe. Great job!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the feedback! Glad the imagery comes across.
DeleteAn unusual story and I was also very taken by the way she - and the crowd - reacted to her gigantic image. I have all kinds of questions, can't wait to read more.
ReplyDeleteOoh cool, questions are good LOL! Thanks for stopping by to check it out!
DeleteWow, very sensual! I liked this passage a lot, it seems like this could definitely be an important moment in Ti-Hana's character arc.
