*DOES THE HAPPY DANCE* Kids are back to schoooool! Kids are back to schoooooool! Uh-huh! Uh-huh! Can't touch this!
Ok, lol. Sorry, I'm just SO HAPPY! NO MORE TURDS IN DA HOUSE!
So, this story is totally rated M for starting out with hints of smut but no actual smut taking place, and for mention of rape. Don't worry yall, this is NOT Sacrifice… though the beginning set-up has similar tones. The girls have been defeated on Earth and Serenity has been taken as the Saiyan prince's mate. But we're focusing on the Inners in this story and not much else. Mostly Rei. So, they've been there now for three years, and NOPE, they are NOT going home. They're just gonna have to go along to get along or die. Those are the choices, so don't hold out false hope for going back to Earth!
But feel free to have hope for smut (because with me, there's ALWAYS smut) while our ladies try to come to better terms with their um… bondage. MWUHUHAHA… mwuhuhahaha… MWUHUHAHAHAHAHAHA… mmm~yes…
Oh, and break out the Saiyan dictionary (which I am trying to figure out how to reorder), you're gonna need it later on, yall.
Rei trembled visibly as her master approached the bed slowly, shaking his head mournfully down at her. "I warned you about running away, Rei. But you just couldn't listen to me, could you? You had to push my buttons, had to risk getting executed by the first guard that caught you out…" He sighed heavily as he slowly ripped the long skirt and the tunic from her body, leaving her fully exposed.
It was then that she began to struggle in earnest against the bonds that held her in place, tied spread-eagle to the large bed in her master's chambers. "Please," she whimpered softly. "I—I'm sorry, Master. I swear that I won't run again. Just please don't hurt me."
He lifted a single obsidian brow at that statement and snorted. "Rei, have you ever seen a mark on one of my slaves?" When she shook her head slightly, he retrieved a tiny ampule from the top of his dresser and held it up. "I don't punish my slaves with pain. But like I warned you in the very beginning, it will be pretty unpleasant. So just suck it up and don't squirm."
"Open up," he ordered, and when she wouldn't obey, he knelt beside her on the bed. "You have a choice, Rei. Open your mouth…" He looked down between her legs and made an obvious gesture. "…or I take your virginity. Your choice."
That only made her shake harder and she finally conceded defeat. "Yes, Master Raditz." Rei swallowed without being told to when the tiny flask was emptied into her mouth; it tasted like honeyed mead and strawberries, so at least it wasn't unpleasant. "What was in it?" She whispered fearfully.
"You'll find out soon enough, woman." Clearly unhappy about what he was doing, Raditz went back to the dresser and brought back a tube of cream and liberally applied it to her nipples and between her legs before she could make a single protest. "There we go. That's it."
It couldn't be that simple. There was no way in hell that it could be that damned easy. "What was in all of that, Master?" She asked suspiciously.
"Like I said, you'll find out soon enough. I'll be back in an hour." With that, he exited the room and closed the door, the lock clicking audibly.
One week prior
Her sandals scuffed against the wooden riser as she stepped down and was handed over to the man that had just purchased her, and Rei couldn't help but look up at him, meet his eyes, and give him just a hint of a glare. Just short of insolent enough to get slapped, but just enough to show him that she wouldn't be bossed like a common house slave, wouldn't be forced into doing anything beyond cooking, cleaning, and laundry.
The last warrior that had owned her had found that out the hard way, and was currently in a med tank for trying to force himself on her. Rei hadn't been the one to kick his ass, though… it had been his betrothed when she'd heard Rei screaming her head off, summoning her powers over fire.
"Master," she grunted, raising her chin just a bit to show that she couldn't—wouldn't—be broken. Not by him, not by any Saiyan warrior that thought that they could take her. They'd conquered her planet and her entire solar system, but they would never, ever conquer her.
"Your name?" He asked, his lips twitching up in amusement at her little display of defiance. Obviously her last owner hadn't even bothered to ask, judging by the way she instantly shifted from insubordinate to surprised. "My name is Raditz," he offered when he met only silence. "And you'll find that I'm pretty easy to work for so long as you behave. Come on, I live a short ways from here; we'll walk while I explain the rules."
"Rei," she finally said, still staring at him curiously. Her eyes only widened when he studied the cuffs on her wrists and the collar around her neck. "Because I fought," she said flatly, determined to remind him that she wasn't one to be trifled with.
"Naw, really?" He chuckled. Raditz pulled a key out of his pocket, one that the auctioneer had handed him, and he instantly freed her hands. "There. Better?" He frowned when he examined her wrists; they were red and clearly irritated and scratched up in places. "I've got something for those bruises and abrasions at the house, Rei. Now… this thing around your neck… what in the hell is it for? I've never seen one of these."
"It's to suppress my powers," she snapped. "I tried to light my last owner on fire."
"May I ask why?" Raditz asked slowly, taking a step back to study her carefully.
"Because he tried to fucking rape me. Any other questions?"
"Oh. Hell, then he deserved it." Raditz snorted and rolled his eyes as he pulled her close to him and looked the collar over. "Any warrior should know how to seduce a woman if he wants some pussy. It's not exactly difficult. Ah… here we go. Same key, lucky you."
"Not that I'm complaining, but…"
Raditz tossed the collar in a trash barrel and shrugged. "You said he tried to rape you. I'm not going to do the same, so I don't think I'm in any danger of being turned into a pile of ashes. Am I?"
Suspicious that this was simply some ploy to get close enough to take advantage of her, Rei decided to be cautious, despite the fact that this was the very first warrior in over a year to show her any hint of true kindness. And she'd been through quite the list of previous masters, too. It was why she'd sold for so little, even though she'd been confirmed a virgin by a physician. Virgins typically sold for a premium and were eventually taken as mates, but she'd been such a royal pain in the ass that no one would touch her with a ten-foot pole. Until the last master, anyway.
"We'll see," she finally responded.
"Come on, little pyro. Let's walk and talk." Raditz pointed the way and tugged her up to walk beside him when she immediately took the position of a slave, five feet behind him. "I don't like talking over my shoulder. So… how many masters have you alienated? I figure it's at least five since I got you for such a good price."
"Nineteen."
"Damn. I'm amazed they haven't executed you by now or stuck you in the salt mines," he chuckled.
"I'm royalty, and I'm still a virgin," she explained. "Did you even listen to the auctioneer?" Rei huffed.
"Nope. Honestly, I was far too busy staring at your tits," he snickered. "Hey! I can look all I want, woman! You're mine, remember?" He asked seriously when she glared up at her, baring her teeth in a challenge. "While we're on the subject, let's get something straight. I'm extremely easy-going, but you are my slave. I own you. You'll do what you're told, when you're told, or I'll have to punish you."
"No stranger to that," she whispered under her breath, looking away from him.
Raditz caught the hint of sadness in her eyes and actually gave her a little pat on the back. "Don't worry. I don't punish my slaves with pain. I've found much more… creative means of getting my point across. That aside, I also like to reward my slaves for doing as they're told." The way she swiftly looked back up at him, her eyebrows raised, told him that she wasn't used to such a thing at all. "Shame that I didn't listen, though… I'd bought you as a pleasure slave. Oh well. I have a few others that don't mind sharing my bed, at least. And I'm sure Minako will appreciate some help around the house with the laundry."
Rei blinked at that and actually grabbed his arm to stop him, catching herself only a moment later and quickly removing her hand, cringing as she expected to be punished for the transgression of touching him.
"Woman, I'm not going to punish you for something that stupid," Raditz snorted. "You stopped when I said Minako's name. You know her?"
Rei nodded emphatically, her fear forgotten as she felt a surge of hope. "The princess of Venus! She's my sister!"
"Oh… heh, that's funny! You're that Rei! Shit, woman. I feel like I already know you; Mina's told me all about you and the Outers." He was glad to see her brighten a bit and decided to add to her lightening mood. "Makoto and Ami are with me as well, you know. Though honestly, I think my father's about to steal Mako from me and claim her for his mate," he snickered. "She seems to like him, so I don't mind."
They started walking again for a little while, with Rei deep in thought until what could only be the home of a very well-to-do general came in sight. No wonder he'd managed to snag four captive princesses as slaves; Raditz was apparently loaded!
"It's a working farm," Raditz explained. "And totally self-sustaining. One of very few on Vegeta-sai, in fact, since most of the planet is desert. Do you have any experience with farming, Pyro?"
"I'm good with animals, that's about it," Rei offered. "Mars is mostly desert as well and we don't grow much there." She eyed the horses and cattle with interest and nodded; slave or not, this was much better than the last place she'd been at. And she was with her fellow princesses, so she'd try to be on good behavior—well, at least as good as she was capable. "Any other rules I should be aware of?" She asked absently as she continued to eye the horses in particular.
"I'm sure it goes without saying, but you'll treat my brothers and my father with the utmost respect whenever they're here. And especially in front of them, you'll only address me as 'Master.' If it's your night to serve supper, you'll serve me first, but since you cooked, you may eat from my plate if you'd like. And if you're in my bed, you may freely address me by my name."
Rei froze at that and glared at him for the third time. "That won't be happening, Master."
"Did I mention sex? I don't think so, woman. I merely have trouble sleeping alone and all of the house slaves rotate sharing my bed. Which is extremely comfortable, I might add. Sex is optional; if you're not interested in that, I'm sure that Minako or another woman will take care of my needs beforehand. Mako would, but I've labeled her off-limits since Father's taken a shine to her." He followed her line of sight when she looked towards the corral again and he smiled. "You like horses?"
"Yeah. I helped my mother break them back on Mars. We trained war horses, mainly. Some for pleasure riding, but mostly for battle." Rei pointed at one and smirked. "That one needs to either be taken in hand or cut. If you don't geld him, he's going to be damned near unrideable for most." The glint in her eye told him that she clearly wasn't most.
"You think you can break that stud? Be my guest," Raditz snorted. "He's put me on my ass a few times."
"Watch and learn, fluffy boy," Rei replied nonchalantly, approaching the corral and vaulting it effortlessly, even in the split skirt she was wearing. She immediately calmed as she slowly approached the snorting stallion, and she whispered softly to him in Martian when he stomped and laid his ears back all the way. "Shh… it's ok, big guy. See? No leather on me at all. I'm not going to bridle you or anything, I'm just introducing myself."
Sniffing and stamping, the stud calmed a little when he didn't scent any leather on her, just as she'd said. Leather equaled bridles and saddles, and he sure as hell wasn't going to submit to being mounted. Much like the princess standing before him.
"Ah, that's it. Such a good, big gentleman, aren't you?" Rei cooed as she gently held her hand out for him to sniff, keeping her palm flat in case he decided to try and bite. She pulled an apple from her subspace and chuckled the moment his ears snapped forward in interest. "Yes, it's for you, you big baby. Go ahead and eat it." With that, she began to run her free hand other his face and neck, gently stroking and easing him into her touch. "Yes, you're such a good big boy. I don't suppose you'd let me hop on, would you? There just might be another apple in it for you if you let me ride you a little."
The horse only understood 'apple' and 'ride,' and his ears immediately went back once more until she produced another treat for him to munch on. Finished with the second offering, he licked at her palm, but when she produced a third and withheld it, he stamped impatiently.
"Ah, ah, ah… hang on, big guy." Rei backed up to the edge of the fenceline and snagged a bridle, nodding in approval at the snaffle bit attached to it. It's what she would have used on such a willful stallion back home. "You want this, baby boy? I want to bridle you. Sound fair?" Holding out the third apple, she waited for him to take it and cooed and whispered softly to him about what a good boy he was. "Ok," she added when he was through, "are you going to keep being my good boy and take this bit? It's a split bit and it won't hurt your mouth, you know. And I'm a light rider and keep a good seat."
Rei smiled as he took the bit with very little complaint and adjusted the headstall to fit him right. "There we go, all done. And I won't even bother you with a nasty old saddle, either. Come on, to the railing, since I'm so short."
Raditz gawked in amazement as his new slave fearlessly lined the stallion up with the fence and climbed up on him… and proceeded to just sit there without getting thrown on her head while she petted the black coat and kept giving the horse gentle praise for behaving. He could hear her as he approached the fenceline and she just continued to sit on the massive destrier's bare back, cooing and petting and praising him for behaving so well for her.
"I don't suppose we could ride a little, could we, big guy?" She asked gently, giving the reins the lightest tug to the right and a brush of her sandled feet on his sides. He laid his ears back again and reared just a little, but Rei clucked her tongue at him disapprovingly. "Don't get snippy with me, Mister. Tell you what. What do you want to do?" She looked to Raditz then and then to the gate. "Would you mind opening it, Master? I think he doesn't like being cooped up, and the best way to get this done quickly is let him run himself silly."
"Woman… you're either the bravest soul I've ever met… or the most foolish. That stud has dumped me on my ass several times out in the pasture."
"Watch and learn," she replied smugly, gesturing towards the gate.
Raditz sighed and opened it as requested, and the black stallion was off like a shot through the gate. And instead of falling on her ass as expected, Rei was bent low over his neck, the reins down as she gave him his head, her knees holding tightly to him as she kept her balance like a total pro.
The Saiyan couldn't keep the stupid little grin off of his face as he heard his newest little slave give a whoop and a holler, goading the horse on to go faster, harder—"come on, big boy! You run like a fucking filly!"—and as the horse whuffed loudly and made a tight, hairpin turn, Rei merely moved with him. Horse and woman were one being as she continued to run him silly all around the pasture, yelling with the pleasure of having the wind in her face and a thousand pounds of wild stud between her legs.
That thought made Raditz a little hard and he chuckled to himself at all of the nasty jokes he could make on the matter, but he continued to lean against the fence, arms folded over his chest as he took in the sight of Rei wearing the stallion out.
Eventually they returned, the horse with his head down, breathing heavily, ears forward, walking slowly like a well-broken mare. His rider was an utter vision; her cheeks were flushed, her unbound raven hair wild, her violet eyes as bright as the grin she was flashing as she smoothly dismounted. "Good boy," she cooed, petting his neck and giving it a kiss. "Come on, I got sugar cubes hiding in my subspace somewhere, and a nice, thick brush to groom you with."
"Wow, woman. I think you just made him your bitch," Raditz snickered, only to sidestep when the stud seemingly understood him and nipped at him. "Come in and clean up for supper when you're finished with him."
Rei was assaulted with hugs and kisses from her sisters in arms the moment she entered the house, still disheveled, sweaty, and covered in horsehair from where she'd groomed the stud, whom she'd named Deimos while she'd been caring for him.
"Master Raditz said he had a surprise for us, but I didn't think he meant something this awesome!" Makoto squealed, picking up the princess of Mars and swinging her around, only to put her down and have the same thing happen with Minako and then Ami.
"We're all here!?" Rei exclaimed in disbelief.
Ami was the one to break the mood. "All except Usagi," she whispered sadly. "Word has it that she's at the capitol, and the prince claimed her almost immediately."
"Well then let's go break her the fuck out!" Rei yelled, only to freeze the moment a soft growl rumbled through the room, then a second… then a third.
Raditz was at her side the moment three other males rose from their seats, and he grabbed Rei by the hair at the base of her neck and tugged her from the room immediately. She fought and kicked and yelled until she was shoved into a room and Raditz locked the door behind him, and when he approached, her hands instantly erupted into flames. "You going to beat me now?" She snarled up at him fearlessly, her eyes boring into his.
It was the first genuine eye contact they'd made, and Raditz jumped a little at a tug in his stomach just as she did the same. "Fuck," he snapped out. "No, I'm not. I don't punish my slaves that way, as I told you. And I won't punish you for this. But you are going to watch your fucking mouth, especially around my father and brothers… and if I hear another word about running away… much less trying to 'rescue' the princess of Vegeta-sai from her mate, your punishment will be more severe than anything I've ever doled out. Pull or no pull."
"Pull?" Rei snorted. "The fuck is that?"
"Never mind. Now get your ass back out there, apologize to my family—respectfully—and then sit down for supper and keep your goddamn mouth shut for the entire meal unless you're directly addressed."
"Yes, Master," she ground through her teeth.
"Be as insolent as you want, woman, but don't you dare do that in front of my family. My father alone won't hesitate to beat the shit out of you for disrespecting me."
"Sounds like a real gem. I'll skip dinner," she said as she insulted him by turning her back on him and walked out the door. "I'll be in the stable if there's any work to be done." Back in the living room, however, Rei made a slow, respectful bow to the rest of the House of Bardock. "I apologize for my disrespect. Please forgive me; it won't happen again."
Since he had Mako in his lap and she was paying more attention to him than she ever had before—mostly for Rei's benefit—Bardock merely grunted and waved her off before murmuring something in Mako's ear that had her blushing.
"Rei-chan, aren't you going to eat something?" Ami asked worriedly, ignoring Kakarot as she usually did whenever he came over, despite the way he always tried to get her attention with compliments and offers to take her into the capitol. "You've lost a lot of weight," she added with a frown. "And I cooked a ton of fish that Kakarot caught this afternoon… they're really tasty. I even made rice with them and everything, just like back home."
Seeing the hope in Ami's eyes that she would join them at the table, Rei sighed and relented. "I'll go change clothes."
"Your room is the one right next to mine," Raditz offered, relieved that she was going to sit with them and eat. Refusing food from her master's table was an immense affront to him, and he would have been forced to punish her somehow if she hadn't stayed. Being her first day on his estate, he'd hoped to reward her instead, especially after she'd broken that douchebag of a stallion for him.
Rei was downright surprised by the size of her room when she walked in; her last master had supplied her with what equaled to a closet, but this room was spacious, and with all the windows open, it was fresh-smelling and airy. Her pleasure was dampened by the sight of a door to her right, though, right beside her queen-sized bed, and she sighed. Well, he'd been straight with her at least. Raditz had said she'd been purchased solely as a pleasure slave.
She shed the skirt she was wearing, both sides split up to her hips to reveal her long, creamy legs, and threw that and the very low-cut top she'd been given by her last master in the hamper before taking a quick shower, working the tangles out of her hair, and dressing in something a little less revealing, but no less flattering.
The time alone also gave her a chance to reflect on her position in this new household. She was with her cousins, she would be well-fed—judging on the size of the farm—and so far Raditz hadn't harmed her. In fact, he'd even kept her from getting her ass beaten by his father. "I guess it would be best to behave… I'd hate to get sold again," she sighed heavily. "Especially when everyone else seems so happy." The fact that Makoto seemed content was the deciding factor; if anyone would have fought a cruel master tooth a nail, it would have been the princess of Jupiter. So Raditz couldn't be a bad guy if Mako was willingly serving him.
Ami was sitting next to Raditz when she entered the dining room, sharing his massive plate with him while Mako shared from Bardock's and Minako from Turles's. "Come on," Kakarot said cheerfully, waving her over. "I don't mind sharing."
"Though he'd rather be sharing with Blue," Turles snickered, and was immediately joined by a little giggle from Minako when Kakarot sighed and glanced at Ami longingly.
With a mischievous little grin, Raditz elbowed Ami lightly and pointed at the empty seat beside his brother. "Go on, Ami. Go sit with Kakarot. You can share with me on Rei's night to cook, instead. It's her first night here, after all." When she blushed and squirmed in her seat a bit, Raditz laughed and massaged her neck in what was only a brotherly fashion. "Oh, go on. Kakarot won't bite."
The Saiyan in question licked his lips at the word 'bite' and his chest rattled for a full five seconds in a seductive purr.
"Ok, fine. He might. But not at the dinner table," Raditz allowed.
"Come on, Ami, throw the poor guy a bone," Mina whispered in her ear. "You know he likes you."
"Fine," she sighed, sliding out of her chair and walking around the table to plop down next to the tall, muscular Saiyan warrior, who immediately beamed happily and held a bite of his food to her lips. Ami sighed yet again before taking the offering, but gave him a little look that said she'd only tolerate so much of him feeding her when he held his cup of wine to her lips.
"Damn, boy. Give the poor girl a break," Bardock rumbled. "Even I don't force feed Koto."
"It's because you don't want me to kick your ass," Makoto teased, tipping him a wink.
Raditz waved Rei over and fought down the urge to purr when she slipped a pair of chopsticks from her subspace and slowly took a bite of his food. "This is some sort of household tradition?" She inquired quietly.
"Saiyan tradition," Turles offered. "Sharing food with a female you're interested in courting. Or already courting. Or mated to. Raditz shares with all of you because… well…" He shrugged, unable to hide a touch of jealousy as he popped a bite of food in Minako's mouth.
Well, if you'd make a fucking move on the woman, I wouldn't share with her anymore, Raditz told him with his ki. Though I really would miss that little mouth of hers. Mina is a fucking champ at sucking my cock.
"Shut up, Raddy," Turles grumbled, while Bardock and Kakarot snickered under their breaths. "Your last masters didn't share with you?"
"No. I was given scraps after they'd finished," she replied bluntly, raising a suspicious brow when Raditz held a bite of fish to her lips. She only took it when Mina and Mako nodded at her with a look of surprise on both of their faces, and decided to ask them why it was so surprising later on. "Then I cleaned up and was forced to sleep in rooms no bigger than closets with only cast-offs for clothing and blankets." Rei blatantly ignored the looks of mixed sympathy and horror that every single person at the table was giving her, took one more bite from Raditz's plate, then rose from her seat. "Forgive me, but I'm not hungry. I'll be out in the corral if I'm needed. I mean no disrespect," she added with a little bow to Raditz.
"It's alright, woman. Go on and work with the crazy bastard for a while if it makes you happy."
"His name's Deimos," she offered before leaving the house.
"Master Raditz?"
Surprised to hear Ami speaking up on the matter, Raditz turned his head and lifted a brow. "Hm?"
"I think it would be best to show Rei some understanding and a lot of patience. She's stubborn to a fault, and she's never taken kindly to men. At all. She doesn't trust people easily, either."
"I felt the pull for her when I took her to the back to discipline her," Raditz confessed softly. "I won't harm her, you can be sure of that."
So, that's the intro! Review and I'll hop on updating this if there's a lot of interest in it. Remember, if you don't review, I won't know that you want me to update! Got it? REVIEWS=FASTER UPDATES. Especially now that my kids are back in school! WOO!
