The real me
Chapter 12 – The Red Room
Important announcement at the end of this chapter.
No One's POV.
Having spun around, Jade desperately looked to the face of her mistress for approval of her rather unorthodox responses during her Q&A session.
Much to her disappointment, Tori's expression while somewhat intense, was in fact rather, business like. All the Latina did, was tilt her head, indicating Jade was to retake her positon on the stage, behind her and to the left.
Now very nervous and unsure where she stood, Jade took her position and listened to Marla as she began to speak.
"Well fellow members of the Diamond Club, now you've had a chance to formally meet three of our newest applicants and their subs, let's give them a round of applause and wish them luck."
After a short and polite round of applause Marla then smiled and directed the group off the stage as the DJ began to play more techno dance music.
Taking up the chain attached to Jade's collar, Tori wordlessly took Jade off the stage.
The Goth, while playing the part of quite submissive slave, nervously debated if Tori's business like demeanor was simply for the judge's benefits or was she really disappointed in her. The latter of the two possibilities, began to truly terrify Jade. Her fears quickly started to run amuck.
So Jade was led off the stage and back into the crowd. Out of the corner of her eye, she could see Kyra quickly glare at her sub Amy and with a hard yank of her leash, led the sub away.
Tori at this point stepped up to Marla and said in a calm tone. "Mistress Marla, I've very much like to have a word in private with Jade is there anywhere I can do that please."
"Why yes, there is. Follow me."
Marla then led Tori off to the side and through a door. Past that was a long corridor with a number of doors. At the end was a door made of red leather. Marla then pulled out a key and unlocked it.
"We have at our disposal, here on the premises, 3 playrooms. This one in front of us is called, The Red Room. The playrooms are available on a first come first serve basis for our members and each room can reserved for 2 hour time blocks. They are fully soundproofed and are equipped with everything a proper dominatrix could think of..." Marla then smiled deviously. "Plus a few things you may not have thought of. Our rules are simple. Do not exceed your time block and you clean up after yourselves. You will be afforded complete and uninterrupted privacy, which can only be interrupted under extreme circumstances, such as the building being on fire or some other, life threatening emergency. We must tell you, we are not responsible for anything that happens in the room. My sub and I have had many sessions here. If you become a member you will be given full use of this room and our other facilities here. I'd guessed you'd want a word with Jade in private after her very interesting response so you can use this one to have your talk."
Tori narrowed her eyes and looked to Jade for a moment. "Thank you, this will be perfect for our little, discussion. "
Marla nodded and opened the door. "You're welcome. When you're finished, just pull the door closed. I'll have it locked back up later."
"Inside." Commanded Tori, with a swift yank of the leash.
Jade followed Tori inside only to have the Latina very quickly shut and lock the door behind them. Jade couldn't see much at first as the only light in the room came from one small light just over the doorway.
A second later Tori flipped on the lights.
What was revealed to them was a large room, about 20 yards wide and at least 30 yards long. The walls were covered with red leather with floor length mirrors space about every few feet. Immediately in front of them was a fully equipped dungeon with three types of rack, shackles hanging from the ceiling and ultra-vast assortment of devices of both pleasure and pain, that made Tori's eye bulge out.
Beyond the racks, was a large four poster bed with what looked like silk sheets. Near the bed was a full entertainment center with 70" flat screen TV.
After surveying the playground and quickly imagining some of the things she could do to Jade with she commanded.
"On your knees! Now!"
Not even having to think twice, the Goth quickly kneeled at Tori's feet.
"I displeased her. Curse me for my arrogance." Thought the now heartbroken Goth.
"I'm sorry mistress!" Jade promptly blurted out, with a tear running down her face.
Immediately she was the recipient of a very painful slap. She wanted to rub it, but doing so would only invite more punishment.
Tori then picked up a whip from a rack nearby that had at least 30 different ones of varying lengths and thicknesses.
"Did I tell you to speak, slave?" Tori said coldly as she examined the whip she was now holding.
Lowering her head, Jade said a soft. "No mistress you did not!"
Tori then put her hand under Jade's chin and lifted her head so she could see the Goth's eyes. They were full of shame, fear and sadness.
"Tell me, what does that tattoo on your thigh say?"
"It says Tori's slut."
Tori then smiled, "Yes it does. It means you belong to me and I tell you when you can and can't speak. I do love you very much, but I need to install the discipline in you that you so desperately need. Now tell me, why did you apologize when I didn't ask for one?"
Jade began to cry. "I displeased you, on stage, with my response during the question and answer session. I failed you. Now you're angry at me."
"You assumed because I decided to be cool about it and not show my real feelings that I was displeased with you. YOU ASSUMED WRONG!"
Tori then took the whip and lashed it once on Jade's leg. It took Jade everything she had not to yelp in pain as it stung badly.
Tori leaned in and whispered in Jade's ear. "Don't assume you know what I'm thinking, especially in places like this. Ever! Do that again and I will whip you again and not just once, is that clear?"
"Yes mistress."
Tori then softened her tone and ran her fingers through Jade's hair. "You've been so good up to now. I was going to tell you I was actually quite pleased with your answer. But you jumped to conclusions and I had to punish you."
Tori then motioned for Jade to stand. "Stand up and until we leave this room, feel free to speak your mind. I'll let you off the proverbial leash for a bit."
Jade cautiously stood up and after a moment where she rubbed the spot on her leg that Tori had whipped, spoke. "So you approved of what I said."
"Look Jade, You know perfectly well, I can be an utter bitch sometimes and sometimes I very much like to, but I'm not unreasonable. You and the others were thrust into a situation you really weren't prepared for. I didn't even think they would interview you at all let alone ask you complex questions."
Jade breathed a quick sigh of relief. "Tori I watched Amy and Hayley and I simply was not impressed. I felt the best way to serve you, to make you look good was to stand out. Besides, not looking at the audience, it just looks bad. Despite the fact that I'm your sub Tori and I'll die for you, I am who I am. So I stood out in my own particular way."
Tori then pulled Jade into a hug. "You're not just any sub, your so much more than that Jade and I love your for it. I fully expected something different out of you and had you just looked at the floor, mumbled and acted like a wet rag, I would have been displeased. Then I really would have punished you. You acted in my best interests, in an unusual situation, where you could get no guidance from me, in your own way and I simply can't fault you for that. My mother always told me, be very firm, but fair and reasonable. You did it for me and I love you for it."
Hearing Tori's praise made Jade feel a 1000% better. "I love you too."
After the hug broke, Jade asked. "What do you think will be next?"
Tori took a deep breath, exhaled and looked over one of the racks. "I'm not exactly sure, but I have been thinking about one possibility and I'm starting to think they will do it."
"What's that?"
"I think they will pit you against the other subs in some sort of competition."
Jade thought for a moment. "What do you think it would entail?"
"Well if I were running the show, I'd want to see who was the best trained sub. I'd take the three subs, cram vibrators in them and see who can hold out orgasming the longest or inflict pain on them and see who doesn't show it."
Jade nodded, in agreement. "Sounds quite logical. I think you're right."
Tori then pulled Jade close with a rather cruel smile. "You should already be well prepared for that sort of thing, but just in case, we're going to have to start, training, tomorrow. My beautiful Jade is going to win."
"I won't fail you Tori."
With a laugh, Tori playfully slapped Jade on the ass. "You'd better not, because anything short of first place will make your mistress very unhappy and you know what happens when I'm unhappy, right dear?"
"I won't. But let me ask you something. Tonight, with the Q&A session, you're pleased and that's all that really matters to me, but I do want you to get in, what do you think the judges thought?"
Tori shook her head. "I don't know. It was certainly different. But you're wrong about something, it's not just me getting in, it's us. I can't do this without you."
Jade then leaned her forehead against Tori's "I can't do this without you either. I won't fail you."
"Nor will I you."
After a tender moment the couple separated.
"Tori, what do you think is happening to Amy and Hayley now?"
"Well, I'm not sure what Cat thinks, but I'm fairly certain Amy is going to be severely punished. I wasn't impressed by her and I could tell Kyra wasn't either. Ready to head back?"
Jade quietly nodded her head and handed her leash to Tori.
Without another word, Tori led Jade out of the Red Room and back into the main bar area. They had just started to wander into the crowd, when a blonde dominatrix in green leather with a red haired female sub in tow came up and offered her hand.
"You must be Mistress Tori. I'm mistress Gloria pleased to meet you."
Tori shook the woman's and and smiled. "Thank you. You've all be so nice and welcoming. I do hope my sub and I pass muster."
"I hope so. You're sub is very different. In fact she looks downright dangerous, which will certainly liven things up a bit. To enslave your bully, well just knowing that, you've passed muster with me. I am amazed."
Tori and Gloria chatted a bit longer before, the pair found Cat and Hayley.
"Hello Tori. May I say both you and Jade did very well."
"Thank you, you both did too."
Cat eyed Hayley who was busy glaring at Jade. "Hayley, stop glaring at Jade."
Then Cat turned to Tori. "Her and I had a little discussion about her performance. Right Hayley."
Cat then slapped Hayley on the rear, causing the girl to yelp in pain. It was obvious that her rear was still quite sore from their, discussion.
"Right mistress Cat."
They chatted a bit more and as before mingled and met the various people at the bar. Like Gloria, a few of them complemented Tori on enslaving such a wild girl. Jade was quiet, reserved and respectful, doing her best to make Tori happy. She was the perfect sub.
At 1 AM, Tori met up with her mother and after saying they were both rather tired, decided to say their goodbyes and leave.
Once in the car, Holly looked to Jade.
"Jade?"
"Yes Mistress Holly?"
"I'd like to compliment you on your rather honest and brave appearance on stage. We've never had one quite like it. I could tell you were doing your very best not only to stand out but make Tori look very good. I can't speak for the judges but you impressed me and I think a few others as well. Your love and devotion to Tori shows and I greatly appreciate that. Thank you."
Jade smiled. "Thank you Mistress Holly."
Holly then looked to Tori. "This was only the first night. There will be more tests and I have seen people do very well initially and later fall flat on their face. You've both done, well, but do not think for one second you can rest on your laurels. People have failed."
"I'll keep that in mind. Thank you mother."
Tired from the long evening, Tori took Jade's hand, snuggled up next to the Goth and closed her eyes.
Jade tenderly kissed Tori on the head and contentedly looked out the window as the nighttime city lights whizzed by.
She knew she belonged to Tori, heart, mind, body and soul and she relished that role. But at the same time, she knew that in a different sense Tori belonged to her. There was a bond between them than went deeper than that of dominatrix and submissive and each day Jade felt that bond deepen.
And that made her happy indeed.

SUPER IMPORTANT ANNOUNCMENT
Those you who follow Elizabeth Gillies, on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram probably saw the two sets of pictures she put out recently. The first was her in a black dress, where she joked she looked like an Upper East Side widow on her way to the funeral of her husband, whom she killed. The second was her in a pink dress, joking how this was the same widow posing for reporters on the day she's acquitted of murder.
Well I saw those pictures and decided to turn her idea into a full blown and original story. It has original characters and I think it's quite good. Since it's an original story and not fan fiction I have published on fan fictions sister site fictionpress dot com
If you enjoy my reading I think you'll really like this dark and sometimes humorous tale of a murderess.
I have the same pen name there "Quitting Time." and the story is called "Upper East Side."
Here is the link. I had to put spaces in it.
fictionpress DOT com / s /3259089 /1 /Upper-East-Side
As I said this is not a Jori or even an Victorious story, but an original story based on Liz Gillie's original concept.
SO please head over, give the story a read, review and if you like, even pass the word on, via facebook, twitter or instagram as I'm sure other Liz Gillies fans would like to read it as well. Tell me do you think I did her concept justice? I'm really eager to know.
