The Wager

All the next day at school Miley was a nervous wreck and had to admit she was glad but also worried Mikayla was not there today. Glad because she had thoughts of cornering Mikayla and getting on her hands and knees and begging her not to have this party or to take back Lilly's invitation. Miley was so scared about Lilly seeing one of Mikayla's play parties she even had thoughts of begging Mikayla not to let Lilly come and she would come and submit to anything Mikayla would require of her and "entertain" the dark haired beauty's guests as she had so many times in the past. Miley was that frightened and knew Lilly was going to be completely out of her league. That was why she was glad Mikayla was not in school today…because she may have done just what she was thinking. The worry was with Mikayla out she knew her former mistress was preparing for the party and Miley knew what that meant.

Mikayla was getting her house ready to entertain a select group of dominants and their pets. Miley's mind flashed back to those parties. The domination sessions, the serving naked or scantly clad, being used as a table to set food and drinks on, being used as a foot stool, and when the night was coming to an end being selected as a play toy for one or more dominants. Parties she used to enjoy she had to admit to herself. Parties where she pleased Mikayla so well and how proud her mistress would be of her as she showed Miley off as the perfect little pet. But Miley did not want Lilly to see that…she did not want Lilly to see her humiliated and degraded…at least not yet. Lilly was not ready for this yet. Miley would gladly do all of the things she did for Mikayla for Lilly but in time…not now it was just too soon. But with all her fears she kept her mouth shut…she knew her place and would not dare try and stop Lilly from going.

Lilly on the other hand thought it would be nice. She had no clue about Miley's fears since her brown haired girlfriend was being very quiet today but she saw this as nice chance to talk to Mikayla…to clear the air and put all of this behind them so they all could be friends once more. Lilly was looking forward to the dinner party with just the four of them.

Lilly arrived at Miley's house wearing a simple white skirt that did show her butt very well and came down about two inches above her knees and a simple red blouse. She styled her hair in curls and wore it loose and wore just the right amount of makeup to enhance her looks but not too much to appear she was trying to hard. And she was going to try. She was going to try and compete with Mikayla tonight and not let the other girl win at whatever game she was playing at and then they were going to talk...maybe yell if required, but tonight before Lilly left Mikayla's house they were either going to get past this and be friends or they were not and never talk again. Lilly was not going to lose Miley…not after all they had been through. She did have one thing Mikayla didn't…she had Miley's love and that was her trump card. Lilly walked in the house and called Miley's name and the other girl told her she would be down in a minute and please wait for her. When she did come down, Lilly's eyes grew wide and she was speechless at the site of her girlfriend.

Miley walked down the stairs biting her lower lip in nervousness hoping Lilly would be pleased with her outfit. First her hair was down and she curled it to perfection as it flowed past her shoulders. She thought about wearing it up but she knew Mikayla liked it down and that made her wear it down and she could not figure out why she cared what Mikayla liked. She was angry at the other girl for what she was about to reveal to Lilly. Her top was a simple red front laced corset with small shoulder straps and black laces and the bottom of her corset was cut in a V to bare her stomach. Her skirt was a black leather pleated mini so short Lilly knew if Miley bent over she would know what type of panties the girl had on. Around the waist of the skirt were silver studs. Lilly noticed Miley wore more makeup than usual. She thought Miley looked…well…fucking hot and sexy, but was worried about her being dressed that way. As soon a as Miley got to the bottom of the stairs she walked to the middle of the room and very graciously knelt on the floor with her head down. Lilly knew she must have had long periods of practicing that movement because there was no way she could have kneeled in that skirt and not flash something without practice, and Miley did just that with perfection.

"My pleasure to see you, Mistress." Miley said.

"Ummm…Miley…you…you don't have to do that tonight. I want you to be my girlfriend ok." Lilly said still shocked by Miley's dress.

"M'am, may I speak if it pleases you." Miley responded in a said tone. Ohhh my poor Lilly…why did you agree to this, she thought, you are not ready…you will never be ready for this…oh God what am I doing…why did I drag her into all this? Why did I fall in love with her…this wonderfully sweet caring girl…why does she have to be so damn perfect! She is much too good for me…I…I don't deserve her…I will never deserve her and after tonight she is going to see that.

"Umm…yes, but…umm first…why are you dressed like that?" Lilly asked softly.

"Does Mistress not approve of my dress? Miley will be happy to change for Mistress if she desires it. Maybe Mistress would like to choose Miley's outfit." Lilly noticed that Miley was not using her innocent childlike voice she normally did when she addressed her self in the third person but sounded…formal almost.

"Umm…no…I mean yes…I mean…hell, Miley, I just asked a question. Why are you dressed like this?" Lilly stammered out as she was getting a little angry.

"M'am, please forgive Miley for her misunderstanding. The invitation said for Mistress's pet to dress appropriately, m'am, and this is appropriate attire for Mistress Mikayla's party."

"Mistress Mikayla? Why did you call her that?" Lilly shouted as her anger got the best of her.

"Mistress, I beg you…please let me speak…please, m'am." Miley whined and her eyes got watery.

"Fine!" Lilly said as she plopped down on the couch.

"May…may I look at you, Mistress?" Miley asked.

"Damn…of course you can look at me, Miley…for Gods sake you can look at me anytime you want." Lilly said in an exasperated voice.

Miley stood, walked in front of the couch, and kneeled perfectly once more and looked at Lilly. "You gave me permission to speak but may I do so freely and may I please touch you, Mistress."

Lilly's anger was starting to be replaced with confusion. Yes she and Miley played this game of Mistress/slave but tonight Miley was going overboard and she did not know why. "Yes you may speak freely and you can touch me…you can always touch me."

Miley crawled to Lilly, got up, and straddled the blondes lap and kissed her hard for several seconds and pulled back. "Lilly I love you, God I love you so much it hurts me when I am not with you and it fills me with such joy like I never felt when I am with you…you believe me right?"

Lilly nodded and gave Miley a confused look, "I know, Miles, I feel the same way."

Miley nodded, "Tonight I am not your girlfriend…you cannot treat me like your girlfriend. No matter how much you want to you can't. Tonight I am your slave, I am your play toy, I am your arm candy, and I am your pet. Do you understand?" Lilly nodded again. "Once we get to Mikayla's I will not do anything you do not want me to do and I will do anything you tell me to do…anything Lilly. Please understand that."

"Miley, what kind of party is she having?" Lilly asked.

"I…I don't know. I suspect she is having a dinner party with people in the lifestyle. This is not a game to Mikayla, Lilly…this is not a game to me…this is not a game to us. This is how we chose to live. I told you and she told you this, baby. I addressed Mikayla as mistress because that is what she is…I will address all dominants with such respect. It was nothing personal, Lilly. It is just my place. Again…this is not a game or fun little role play to me baby, but…but I don't think you understand that." Miley said sadly.

"Well fuck her…we are not going then." Lilly said as she pushed Miley off of her and Miley landed on the couch sitting next to her.

"We have to now…we told her we would." Miley said.

Lilly looked at her, "She doesn't control me, Miley, and I will not let her control you anymore."

Miley smiled at that, "I know…she could never control you. But if we don't go now it would be rude. Lilly, it is not that I want to go. I will do what ever you tell me to without complaint, but you and her need to fix this, baby. You…we…you and I…need to know what she is playing at. I don't know if she is jealous or not. She loves you, Lilly…hell she adores you. She is our friend and we need to know if she is going to continue to be our friend. I love her, Lilly, I really do and I miss us not all being together…you, me, her, and Ashley. These last few weeks have been terrible for us all." Miley leaned up and kissed Lilly gently on the lips, "We may love her but you and I are in love with you each other. If she is going to try and humiliate you in any way let me know and we walk…we will leave anytime you want to. If we go there and stay five minutes and you don't like it we leave if you want to. You…you have never seen Mistress Mikayla, Lilly. All you have seen of her is the kind and wonderful friend who would do anything for you but you have not seen her as I have, Lilly. If she…if…if she wants to end the friendship with you and thinks she can have me back then her and I are…are no longer friends. I love you that much, Lilly."

Lilly was touched by Miley's words and she found courage in what Miley told her. "Ok…we go but if I don't like what I see or her friends we walk out." Lilly said flatly.

Miley got off the couch and knelt back on the floor. "Would you prefer to drive, Mistress, or shall I?"

"You can drive us, Miley. Let's just go and get this over with."

They arrived at Mikayla's about ten minutes after seven and when Miley pulled her car into the driveway she let out a huge sigh of relief and smiled at Lilly. "Well…guess I was wrong, huh?" There were no other cars in the driveway.

Lilly gave her a half smile, "Maybe they just haven't got here yet and we are the first to arrive."

Miley shook her head, "No…when Mikayla say's seven she means seven. When she had her parties she would not let anyone in who was even a minute late…and we are about ten minutes late so we had better get going." Miley got out and walked around and opened Lilly's door for her.

They walked hand and hand to Mikayla's door. Normally they would just walk in like they always have but Lilly felt that was no longer the case since her and Mikayla had this feud of silence going on so Lilly rang the doorbell. She was surprised Mikayla answered the door herself and not Brittany. Lilly stared at Mikayla and thought she looked absolutely stunning. She was not overly dressed or anything and just had on a pair of skin tight black leather pants, a silver silk top that was just low cut enough to show just the right amount of cleavage to be sexy but subtle as well and she wore what Lilly would guess to be at least black four inch stiletto heels. Her make up was done to perfection and her hair was down gave the look of just having a brush ran through it but Lilly knew it was styled.

Mikayla ginned and hugged Lilly tight and kissed her cheek, "Oh I am so happy you accepted my invitation." She then gave Lilly a pouty face, "You have not been here in weeks and I missed you so much." She hugged Lilly again and Lilly could have sworn it was sincere but she was not taking any chances.

She hugged the girl back, "Well thanks for inviting me…us…I really had not choice, Brittany would not give me time to think about it…she was going to stay all night if she had to."

Mikayla laughed and it was that charming musical laugh that Lilly knew melted hearts. "Yes she told me…she did mention your mother was very sweet even if shocked. I agreed…I adore you mother, Lilly."

"Yeah she is great…so can we come in?" Lilly asked.

"Of course and you look lovely as always." Mikayla stepped aside and as Lilly walked in the brunette blocked Miley's path. "You seem to have forgotten your place, Miley. You are not allowed through the front door."

Miley bowed her head, "Please forgive me, m'am." She turned to walk to the back of the house to the kitchen door when she stopped at Lilly's voice.

"Miley, stop…you don't have to go through the back." Lilly turned to Mikayla, "I don't know what game you are playing, Mikayla, but she is with me and she goes in with me."

Mikayla gave Lilly a sweet smile, "I am not playing a game here, my precious flower. I do not allow pets through my front door. I don't care who thinksthey own them. My house my rules." Mikayla's smile vanished as quickly as it appeared, "Around back, pet." She shouted at Miley.

"Yes, ma'm." Miley said and walked around the back.

Before Lilly had time to even argue Mikayla looped her arm in hers and led her to house. "Ohhh…I have been cooking a wonderful dinner. We are having boneless chicken breasts with Marsalis sauce, pasta with alfredo sauce, a wonderful red wine...I know that is improper dining etiquette to have red wine with chicken but I just love a good red, don't you dear." Mikayla said cheerfully as she walked with Lilly.

"Yeah…sounds great…umm…where is Brittany?" She asked suspiciously.

"Oh she is cooking hers and Miley's dinner. I am going to let them have a nice red meat sauce with angel hair pasta."

"They…they are not going to eat what we are having?" Lilly asked as Mikayla led her into the formal dinning room. Lilly had seen the spacious room many times of course but they never ate in here. Mikayla always said that between friends she much preferred the coziness of eating from the smaller table in the kitchen. Something Lilly now took note of…among friends flashed in her mind.

"Don't be silly, my dear, we cannot let the pets eat as we do. They may begin to think they are our equals. That would just cause them to think they could control us. Miley does not control you surely? I trained her better than that."

Lilly picked up the note of humor in Mikayla voice when she mentioned about Miley controlling her. "No…of course not…I…I am her Mistress."

Mikayla cocked and eyebrow and gave Lilly a strange look that seemed to mock her, "Why of course you are. No let's sit and enjoy a glass of wine while we wait for dinner."

The table was set to perfection with candles and China dishes, Lilly knew nothing of fine China but she knew these had to be expensive Mikayla would not have anything but the best in her formal dinning service. The silverware looked just like that…silver. Mikayla picked up a small gold bell and rang it once and quickly Brittany came into the room. When Lilly saw her she did not feel as bad at Miley's choice of clothes for the evening.

Brittany had her long blonde hair styled on top of her head with curls coming down to frame her lovely face. She wore a simple blue leather skirt that was even shorter than Miley's, white thigh highs, blue two inch heels, and her top all she was wearing was what Lilly thought of as just blue leather straps. Two wide straps came down off her shoulders and over her front to barley cover her breasts and a thinner strap came across her rib cage just under her breasts and the last one at the bottom across her stomach below her belly button. Brittany kneeled at Mikayla's side.

"What is my pre…oh excuse me, Lilly, I am sorry…I almost called her my precious pet, but she is not longer that is she?" Mikayla smiled at Lilly and Lilly nodded, "What is, Miley, doing, sweet Brittany?"

"She is stirring the sauce, Mistress."

"Oh for heavens sake, have her come poor our wine. That girl can do many things." Mikayla looked at Lilly with a smirking grin, "many wonderful pleasing things but she cannot cook worth a damn."

"As you wish, Mistress." Brittany got up and quickly walked back to the kitchen.

"What are you doing, Mikayla? I…I thought we were friends?" Lilly asked.

"We are, Lilly, best of friends. That was why I invited you over for dinner. I do so enjoy your company and it has been sorely missed."

"Act like it then…why are you treating Miley like this?" Lilly snapped and Miley entered the room. She walked to Mikayla and was about to drop to her knees at the girl's side when she blushed in embarrassment and then adjusted herself to be at Lilly's side. Mikayla laughed and Lilly fumed.

"How am I treating her, Lilly?" Mikayla asked.

"Like…like…I don't know…like she is…is not a person but…but." Lilly stammered.

"A pet? A slave? A toy to be used and put back in the box when you are done with it?" Mikayla finished for her.

"Damn it…yes!" Lilly yelled and she could see Miley flinch.

Mikayla laughed, "Well that is what she is…is she not?"

"She is your friend, Mikayla!" Lilly started to get mad.

"Ohhh is she now. Let's just ask her shall we? Miley, what are you?" Mikayla asked.

Miley glanced at Lilly with a pleading look and did not answer. "Do not look at her…answer my question, Miley!" Mikayla demanded.

"I…I…I am what ever pleases my Mistress for me to be, m'am." Miley answered softly.

Mikayla looked at Lilly. "What do you want her to be tonight, my precious flower?"

"Get up, Miley, and sit at the table." Lilly said.

Miley started to get up. "Down, Miley! I do not allow pets at my table!" Mikayla snapped and Miley whimpered as she got back on her knees. Mikayla looked at Lilly, "My house my rules, Lillian."

"Don't call me Lillian." Lilly said through clinched teeth. "She said she would be what I wanted her to be and I want her to be my girlfriend and your friend, Mikayla. I…I want to be your friend again." Lilly felt her eyes water. "What happened to us, Mikayla…why…why aren't we friends anymore?"

Mikayla gave Lilly a stern look. "Get up, Miley and go back to the kitchen…now!" Mikayla yelled still staring at Lilly.

"Yes, m'am." Miley said and quickly got up and almost ran to the kitchen. "Never show weakness like that again in front her, Lilly." Mikayla said harshly.

"Weakness? Just because I…I want us all to be friends it is weakness? I am sorry I am not some cold hearted bitch like you, Mikayla, but I love her and she loves me. That was something you never had from her was it, Mikayla? That was something she never gave you and you never gave her because…because you don't know how to love!" Lilly wiped her eyes and was no longer crying.

Mikayla laughed, "That is so true, Lilly. Do you think your words hurt me? The truth never hurts me, my dear beautiful flower. She loves you and you love her…that is true. Hell even the blind poet Homer could see that. And true I never gave her love and she never gave me love." Mikayla's voice changed from one of amusement to coldness. "But I gave her so much more, Lillian. I gave her who she was and who she is and who she wants to be. Never forget that! You have had you fun these past weeks with her playing your little game of Mistress and slave girl and I am sure the both of you enjoyed it…but it stops tonight, Lillian. You cannot give her what she wants regardless of how much the two of you love one another. I have told you several times this is not a game to her, Lillian, this is her life! Well your little game ends now…tonight!"

"Who the hell are you to decide who I can or can't be with…who the hell are you to decide who she can or can't be with? And don't call me, Lillian!" Lilly stood up and clinched her fist as she glared at Mikayla.

Mikayla laughed, "I told you before, Lillian, your physical threats do not frighten me. Yes I am sure you can…what do you bullies say…beat me up. Well I have had worse beatings than one a seventeen year old school girl can give me. Plus it will not change the fact that you do not deserve her, Lillian."

Lilly sat down, "What do you mean I don't deserve her? That is a bunch of shit!"

"No…you don't deserve her. As a matter of fact you have ruined her and she has humiliated you." Mikayla frowned, "You are not her mistress, Lilly, you may be her girlfriend but not her mistress and Miley needs the Mistress. She wants both that is true but she needs the mistress more. That is who she is, Lilly, she is a life style twenty four seven submissive. That is who she wants to be…what she craves to be. All you have done with you little role play game of slave girl and her mistress is ruin her. She loves you…I know that and you know that…but that is not enough. She will leave you, Lilly, she will love you still…make no mistake…but she will leave you. She will seek what she desires elsewhere. She has done it before. You have seen that, Lillian. If my control over her could not prevent those desires what makes you think you pathetic love can? It can't and she will go find someone to take care of her need."

"N…no she won't. She promised me just before we came she would never leave me and promised at the homecoming dance she would never do that again." Lilly said with a little doubt in her voice.

"Oh, Lillian, my sweet flower, an addict will promise anything and promise to quit until they need that fix again. Your little novelty of love will wear off soon and she will crave what she needs…what you cannot give her or refuse to give her. Care to make a little wager then, Lillian?" Mikayla smirked.

"What…what kind?"

"I will wager you that within five minutes I can take her away form you…tonight…right now. If I win I get her for the night to do with as I please. And trust me, Lilly; I can do such wonderful delightful things to her lovely body. I can give her what you can't…what you have failed to give her and she will scream and beg for more…such wonderful pain and pleasure until she pleads no more…until both pain and pleasure become to much and she can't take it anymore. I have taken her there, Lillian, I have given that to her more than once…can you say the same? Oh I am sure you do a delightful job of fucking her but can you say you have given her what she truly desires? What she truly craves? I have put marks on her lovely body, Lillian, as she begged for me to never stop." Mikayla was smirking again.

Lilly knew Mikayla was taunting her into taking the bet. She had seen it many times before in different arenas. She had seen and even taken part in this type of taunting to force a bet at the skate board park or on the waves while surfing. But those bets were for pride and the occasional bets for money now…now the stakes were a person…a person she loved so much.

"And…and if I win…God I cannot believe I am asking that…what do I get if I win?" Lilly asked.

"Simple, you get Miley for you happily ever after love story and I…I will walk away. I will never interfere in your lives again. I will quit that silly school and the two of you…and Ashley…will never see me again. And when Miley does leave you because you cannot give her what she wants I promise I will not even consider taking her back. So do we have a deal?"

Lilly shook her head, "No…you leave Ashley out of this, Mikayla. This does not concern her and she loves you…hell we all do even if I don't like you right now I cannot say I don't love you…but Ashley she…she needs this more than I do. You stay her friend regardless. She adores you and looks up to you. She is not part of this."

Mikayla smiled, "That is fine with me. I also adore our precious eastern beauty. So do we have a wager?"

Lilly chewed her bottom lip. This is so wrong…she can't do this. It is not right. She looked at Mikayla's smirking confident smile and thought of what Miley told her. She loved Lilly, she would never leave Lilly, she would chose Lilly over Mikayla. Lilly nodded, "Deal" She said.

Mikayla grinned, "Good." She stood up, "Shall we go join our pets in the kitchen then?"

"What…right now…we are going to do this now?" Lilly asked in a worried tone. She wanted to talk to Miley first…to let her know what was going on.

"No better time than the present." Mikayla picked up the bottle of wine and poured some in her glass and held the bottle to Lilly, "Care for some wine to steal your nerves?"

Lilly stood and shook her head, "No…I don't need it but it looks like you do." She smirked back.

Mikayla laughed, "Oh this is not for me…I thought I would offer some to Miley. She may need it before the night is done." Mikayla held out her arm. "Come, my precious flower, let us get this over with. I am going to need a lot of time with her tonight to satisfy her needs that have been so lacking these few weeks."

Lilly ignored Mikayla's arm and walked to the kitchen and heard Mikayla chuckling behind her as the beautiful girl followed her.

Uhhh…so cold…she is just so cold and so cruel! I love Mikayla! Talk about dreaming up a perfect mistress? Wow I just did…well for me…everyone else please keep your hands off!
