Chapter :16 Change of Status.
By the time Tom and Daniel arrived back home it was early afternoon.
Daniel was exhausted from the morning's activities but another lesson was soon learnt. Tom informed Daniel that they would need to start immediately in preparing dinner, making up their masters bedrooms and tidying up the rest of the house.
Tom and Daniel had left soon after breakfast and the only work that had been achieved before leaving was washing up the breakfast dishes.
`I'm tired and sore Tom you can't be serious about me helping you. Besides I don't know what to do," said Daniel.
"Well there is only one way you will learn what to do and that is by doing these things. You're a slave for the next four months and your father expects you to perform all slave duties required of a permanent slave during that time. I'll start preparing the dinner, you go upstairs and make up the bedrooms. Start with the Master and Mistresses room then master Eric's and finally miss Melissa's room".
`Tom I can't do my brother and sisters room, no way" asserted Daniel.
"Why not?" Tom asked.
"Because, well ummm, well because I'm their brother and I don't do that kind of thing for them" Daniel informed Tom.
"Daniel, Daniel you're a slave, a slave does whatever is requested of him, I've told you that already. For the next four months they are not your brother and sister they are your master and mistress. If they ask you to do something you do it no questions asked provided it's legal, understand?" Tom asked.
Daniel blushed but made no reply.
"I asked do you understand" Tom asserted in a voice far more forceful than he had ever spoken to Daniel with before!
`Yes Tom, I understand" Daniel finally replied head bowed another strip of his pride and self esteem stripped away.
"Good then lets have no more of this uppity attitude. Free people do not like uppity slaves and it will lead you into more trouble than you want or deserve. Now upstairs and start on the rooms. I will be upstairs to check on your work as soon as I have dinner underway, so make it a perfect job, master likes it done right the first time, I don't want there to be a reason why I have to nominate punishment for you or me to Master because we house slaves have not done our job properly" Tom asserted.
His parent's room was empty as both his parents were still at work. Daniel pulled up the bedclothes and attempted to make the bed. He quickly realised how pathetic he was at this task. In all his years on earth he had been waited on by Tom. He had never once made his bed. He didn't really know what to do!
Daniel tried; he really did but after the first attempt the bed looked little better than it did before he started. The second attempt was little better but by the fifth attempt Daniel was so frustrated that he was close to crying and slumped onto the bed.
He was still there when Tom entered.
"Get off Masters bed you lazy boy" Tom yelled at Daniel when he first saw him lying there doing nothing, but he soon realised there was more to this than just laziness.
Daniel jumped up in fright at Tom's command and said, "Tom it's not what you think, I tried to make the bed, I really did, but I can't Tom, I am useless, I can't do it, look at the bed that's the fifth attempt".
Tom looked over to the bed. Of course Daniel had just been slumped across it and the ruffled sheets added to the unmade look. Still it was obvious that Daniel had tried and Tom knew that up until yesterday Daniel would never have been expected to do anything like this.
"It's ok Daniel, I should not have yelled at you before checking things out properly, here let me show you how it's done" Tom offered.
"Thanks Tom you're the greatest, but now I feel guilty, I'm making work for you" Daniel apologised.
"I'll show you once how it's done, I expect you to learn quickly, that's not wasting my time. It's only wasting my time if I have to keep showing you how it's done ok?
"Ok" Daniel replied a smile breaking out on his face for one of the few times that day and an audible sigh of relief could also be heard.
Together they made up his parents bed then Tom directed him around the bedroom instructing him on emptying the dirty clothes bin, what had to be cleaned in the ensuite and general tidying tips. They then moved to his brother Eric's room, which was in a much greater state of disorder than his parent's room.
Clean clothes had been flung out of the chest of drawers onto the floor and mixed with the dirty clothes Eric had worn yesterday. No attempt had been made to place the dirty clothes in the bin provided.
Tom could see the look on Daniels face and said, "It's always like this, so you better get used to it. Mind you it's not much worse than an adjoining room used to be like, which is not being used at the moment.
Daniel looked over at Tom and was about to bite at the bait thrown at him when he saw a huge smile on Toms face.
Daniel just smiled back.
"Ahhh Daniel it's so good to see that after everything you've been through today you can still smile. Keep smiling and you'll make it through this and just look at the domestic skills you are going to learn from this experience. When you get your own slaves they won't be able to pull the wool over your eyes" said Tom.
Daniel reached over and gave Tom a small gentle hug and said, "I'm glad you're here for me Tom".
That one little comment made Toms day, made his week, probably made his year. He loved Daniel, Eric and Melissa as if they were his own, but especially Daniel as he was the first born and Daniels birth into Tom's slave life had been the first shining ray of hope and pleasure that had bought him in the fullness of time to a special relationship with the whole family, especially his beloved Master.
Tom and Daniel were working in the kitchen when Daniels mother and father returned home.
Finally just before dinnertime Eric and Melissa arrived home.
Inside the house Eric and Melissa continued to discuss all the details of what they had witnessed at the Discipline Centre that day. Recalling over and over all the embarrassing details of Daniels spankings, paddling and caning.
They then had a detailed and animated discussion about the masturbating machine and Daniels screaming and begging reaction to its labours, as Daniel was tortured through his five successive orgasms.
In the kitchen Daniel was feeling totally embarrassed as he listened in to all the details of his discipline session being recounted, but his attention was aroused even further when Eric and Melissa moved on to vivid descriptions of Terri Wakers screaming tearful spankings and her torturous orgasmic reactions to the masturbating machine.
Daniel was not the only one who overheard Eric and Melissa's boasts about the Eastbrook Discipline Centre because in the middle of a detailed discussion of how the machine was masturbating Terri, Mr Green's voice rang out, "Eric, Melissa, in the study, NOW!"
Daniel heard his father talking in the study delivering stern words to his brother and sister about their lateness and Daniel hoped their attendance at the Discipline Centre today. He desperately wanted to hear more but Tom taped him on the shoulder and said, "No business of a slave, stop trying to listen in".
"Yes Tom" Daniel replied disappointment thick within his voice.
The voices faded away soon after that, not because his father was calming down, just the opposite, both Owen Green and Eric in particular were raising their voices as Eric attempted to justify his breaking of his parent's edict on attending the Discipline Centre. Melissa was more the passive observer though vitally interested in Eric's argument. No the voices faded away because someone closed the study door obviously aware the discussion was becoming heated.
That night Daniel had to stand next to Tom at the side of the dining room and watch his family eat their dinner. It was a further humiliating experience for Daniel but the initial look on Melissa's face when Daniel took his serving position said it all, she was enjoying this aspect of her brother's loss of status!
However both Eric and Melissa were very sullen through dinner following their session with their father, so little other family discussion took place.
When dinner was finished Daniel began clearing the table to the snickers of both Eric and Melissa who despite their own troubles were enjoying their brothers continued domestic humiliation caused by his change of status.
On Daniels second trip back to collect dirty dishes Melissa halted him and requested, "When your done with your cleaning duties, run me a bath and prepare my bed please slave"
Daniel glared at his sister, how dare she ask him to do this! Before he could say anything Tom's voice came from over his shoulder, "Of course Miss Melissa I will send him up to prepare these things for you as soon as he is finished. Please go relax and he will call you when your bath is prepared" Tom courteously replied on Daniels behalf.
Mr Green smiled at his daughter's use of her new position of power over her brother. It would do Daniel good to experience another dimension to his loss of status. He wasn't upset at this attitude being shown at home, the pity he thought was that the attitude shown by Eric and Melissa in total disregard of his strict ruling on attending the Discipline Centre had spoilt the effect some what for him.
When Daniel had finished the dishwashing, turned down his sister's bed and run her hot bath he returned to the rumpus room and found his mother and his brother and sister sitting watching the television. He informed his sister, "Mam your bath and bed are prepared, do you wish me to bathe you mam?"
Melissa glared at him, realising he was being sarcastic and getting one back at her, however Daniel had asked in such a totally correct and slave like manner that she was forced to answer his question.
Mrs Green was struggling to hold in her laughter at her son's cleverness but for her daughters sake she desperately contained her laughter to herself.
"No slave that will be all" Melissa replied and exited the room quickly hoping no one observed her blushing cheeks. She instantly determined at that moment to ensure that she made Daniel prepare her bath and bed every night from now on. His little joke at her expense would soon loose its effectiveness.
It was a very tired, sore and exhausted Daniel Green that late that night finally sat at the little table in the laundry with Tom and ate some dinner. Tom was allowed leftovers from the main dinner but the fact that it had been kept heated for a couple of hours spoilt the taste somewhat. Daniel didn't care he hadn't eaten since breakfast and though he was dead tired he needed sustenance.
Tom made him shower before bed and the water stung something savage on his bruised and still tender backside. When Daniel finally crawled into his makeshift bed he lay on his stomach to ease the pain in his throbbing behind but the pain didn't affect his sleep.
Tom checked on his charge no more than five minutes after he went to bed and by then Daniel was already sleeping like a baby.
It seemed like no time at all for poor Daniel and Tom was standing over him and rousing him from his sleep.
It was still basically dark outside but Tom was dressed and ready for another days toil. This was the life of a slave. You went to bed after your Masters and you rose before them. Time was not yours, you were there to serve and serve you did throughout the waking hours and beyond of your masters till all the chores had been done. Daniel was quickly learning a lot of respect for all the unseen labour that Tom put in that was never seen or as far as Daniel was concerned never appreciated until now.
Tom insisted Daniel make his bed after his morning ablutions and when it was not up to Tom's standard, Daniel stood there in shock as his bed was stripped by Tom and he was ordered to remake it properly this time around!
By the time the first of the Green family appeared on that Sunday morning Daniel had with the assistance of Tom packed his back pack and was about to depart for the bus stop to catch a bus to Downtown Eastbrook and then a second bus to Piney Hills.
Owen Green was by far the earliest of the Greens to appear but said little as he sat at the kitchen table sipping a coffee, watching Tom fuss over Daniel like a doting father. Tom was ensuring Daniel knew which bus to catch to Piney Hills and where and whom he had to report in to when he arrived.
Mr Green had great difficulty hiding his mirth from Tom and Daniel over the scene occurring before him in the kitchen.
Finally Mr Green spoke, "Daniel, you're sure you want to travel to Piney hills alone? I will send Tom with you if you wish for this first trip".
"Thanks dad ... um I mean Master but Tom is behind in his work from accompanying me yesterday. I don't want to cause him problems because of my needs".
"Ok fair enough but be careful. Remember being NEWDD does not give strangers the right to totally sexually molest you, only inspect you. If you get into trouble ask for help.
"Ok, will do dad ... Master" Daniel replied.
Daniel was nervous, very nervous still about appearing nude in public but already he was noticing his excessive modesty was beginning to disappear just slightly.
"Bye Tom" Daniel said as he went to leave, then not sure how to handle his father he said, "Bye Master"
"Bye Daniel" said both Tom and Owen Green almost simultaneously.
The cheeky side in Daniel reared its head at that moment and as he moved out the kitchen door he called back, "Love you dad" and closed the door quickly before his father could react.
He was not there to see it but a huge grin raced across his fathers face and Tom's too.
"He'll make it I'm sure of it Master, he's a good kid, a really good kid" Tom informed his Master.
"Tom I want Daniel to find his own way like he requested last night and confirmed just then. It's an important opportunity for him to gain some independence and I can't be driving him over there every Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday as I will be at work a lot of those times. Nor can I afford your time to go with him as your duties here would not be done. Still I worry about him being out alone in the community stark naked. There are still perverts around. I have decided that just for today I am going to drive over early to Piney Hills Fair so I am there to check out that the boy is ok when he arrives." Owen Green stated
"You know Master" Tom said "Daniel went up in my already high estimation the way he took his punishment and helped me till he was about to fall asleep standing up at the end of yesterday. I can't say the same about Eric and Melissa's behaviour yesterday. I gather Master from your conversation with master Eric and mistress Melissa that you know about their excursion into Eastbrook yesterday to watch Daniels discipline session?"
"Yes Tom that's what all the yelling was about when they came home. They couldn't see where the problem was! I decided to let things cool off. I was very heated and emotional over their actions last night, I decided for the benefit of all that I would consider my options in the cool light of a new day. As much as I want Daniel to feel the pain, suffering, embarrassment and humiliation of his enslavement, I get the feeling, Eric and Melissa are overdosing on lauding their new found status over him" said Mr Green.
"A wise decision Master to wait, I know you'll come to the right decision with clear unemotional reasoning once you have considered all the options for and against a disposition to the court based upon their persistent misbehaviour and disrespect towards you Master" Tom replied.
"Oh I wasn't thinking of anything quite as severe as a disposition ...... ohhhhhhhh Tom!"
"Really Tom your such a naughty slave, I think such suggestive thoughts may well deserve to be punished, what do you think Tom?" Mr Green said trying to suppress a laugh.
`I'm sure Master that you'll make a clear unemotional decision on that too Master" Tom said.
"Too right I will Tom. Downstairs now before the family get going, you're far too uppity this morning" Owen Green replied with a longing in his eyes and a smile on his face.
"Oh please Master I don't deserve this" Tom said tongue in cheek.
"No you don't deserve this or me! Your right, we won't do it!"
"You don't get out of it that easy Master" Tom said with a laugh and with that comment Tom gently grabbed his Masters hand, a totally forbidden taboo for a slave to do and pulled his Master up from his chair at the kitchen table.
Was Owen Green concerned at his slaves actions and behaviour, well if the tent in his trousers was any indication, no he wasn't!
Tom and Owen with lust and desire in their eyes quickly moved to the door of the basement, locking the door from the inside when they entered so they could not be disturbed. There was just enough time for a quickie before Owen Green would have to leave to check on his son's safe arrival.
