Master of Two: Nascent Love
headache), or dessert after dinner. I
would forbid her from wearing her pretty clothes, or makeup, which
made her feel drab. There was no point in rewarding bad behavior
with enjoyable sex. I saved our sadomasochistic sexual encounters
for the times she was well-behaved. Those times came more and more
and our sex life was full and agreeable.
    It took some time, but to this day, Renee
rarely acts foolishly. She's learned her lessons well and I respect
that about her. I care deeply for Renee. It's not in my nature to
say the words she might like to hear, but I let her know of my
affection in the ways I'm able.
    We've been together for six years. Last
year, I told her of my interest in taking the contract of another
submissive masochist, Amiko. Renee had admitted that she was
bisexual early on in our relationship. She accepted—no,
relished—the times we brought another woman home to explore
together. I told her about Amiko and I think she was a little
concerned for her place in our world, but as I've mentioned, she's
well-trained. She also trusts me, perhaps the most valuable gift
she could ever bestow upon me. That trust saw her through that
night. I wouldn't turn away from my Renee. She's a part of my life,
my world, and, unless she betrays me in some way, I expect us to be
together for a very long time. Of course, I tease her by
“officially” keeping our relationship on a week-to-week basis. So,
I tell her that I'll keep her for another week after she does
something particularly satisfying. Sometimes she earns two weeks,
but I don’t award those too often. The weeks have consistently been
renewed, and they will continue to be so long as she accepts the
terms we set out.
    They went something like this: she will obey
me in all things; she will submit to my will and my judgment in all
things; she will act as my independent agent—my representative—if
it's appropriate; and she will accept my sexual sadism without
hesitation. She agreed to all these stipulations before I took her
on as my…what's the right word? I suppose she's my servant, or
perhaps vassal is a better term. At Boys With Toys, some people
call her my "slave." That's fairly absurd, however. Slavery is
illegal. Servitude is not. To most of the vanilla world, she's my
girlfriend and Amiko is my girlfriend, too. Having two girls with
me when I go out socially might raise a few eyebrows, but at this
point in my life, I don't give a shit. I don't have to explain my
personal life to anyone, so long as I'm not doing anything illegal.
That's how I see it.
    Amiko has been with us a year and, although
having two women in the house took a little getting used to—for all
of us—it is working out quite well. Amiko was tentative at first,
and perhaps I spent too much time with her and made Renee
uncomfortable. At the time, my thought was to let Renee deal with
the changes her own way. She did.
    My little Japanese cutie needed a little
more TLC. Her previous sadomasochistic experiences left her
foundering a bit. I think she moved from Dominant to Dominant
rather too rapidly. But I don't see that happening with our
relationship.
    I should probably say something about the
non-sexual terms of our contract. Both Renee and Amiko live with me
and have their own space, sharing whatever is part of our
household. I give them a stipend every month to spend on what they
like, and their part-time jobs pay them as well. Their money is
theirs to keep. I don't need it and I wouldn't take it if it was
offered. I've also put quite a bit of money into trust funds for
them. If something happens to me or we break up by my choice, the
trust fund money goes to them. I can't say enough that they are not
slaves. They know they're safe and protected in my household, and
their behavior suggests that they're happy with the way things are
going.
    Amiko has a mischievous sense of humor and
adorable way about her. Renee is charming and witty in her own
manner, but Amiko has more playfulness about
