You didn’t hear the door open, or their footsteps. Your attention was completely focused on the spiral. Their words were the first thing that made you aware to their presence. “Here you are toy, clinging on to your mind still, huh?” You nodded, not looking at them.
They laughed. “So you are still here, hmm? Present? Good. But we need to ask why you’re still here.” Their hands began to gently rub your shoulders, their touch feeling so good as your mind began to sag into their words. Into their control. But you resisted.
You had promised them that no matter what, you wouldn’t drop, you wouldn’t fall under their spell tonight. You couldn’t think why right now, but you knew you had. They laughed. “Still fighting back, hmm? That’s good, although I think you might have not realised something.”
You couldn’t find the power to block out their words. “If you wanted to resist, really resist, you wouldn’t be here. If you wanted free will, and self control, you wouldn’t have knelt in front of that spiral for the last five minutes.” Their hands clasped around your shoulders.
“I mean, I told you to kneel there, and you obeyed. You did as you were told. You let me control you. That doesn’t sound like someone who is trying to resist, does it, toy? No, it doesn’t. It means that you were never resisting, not really. You just wanted permission.”
Their hands began to sway you, gently, back and forth, closer and further from the spiral. The soft motion made your head even fuzzier, your muscles losing their tension. “So I give you permission toy. I give you permission to drop.” They pulled you back, and your mind obeyed.
