A Room Comes with a Cost: Part 3

The clock on the microwave glowed 11:47 PM, casting a sickly green light over the kitchen table where Mike sat nursing his third whiskey. The house was quiet... too quiet after the storm of the evening. Sarah's door had clicked shut hours ago, her footsteps heavy with exhaustion as she'd muttered a goodnight and vanished into her room. He could still picture her in that tank top and panties, the faint red handprints blooming on her ass like accusations as she'd vacuumed the living room. The way her thighs had trembled, the subtle sheen between them... No. He shook his head, taking a swig that burned down his throat. Focus. Money's tight. Rules'll fix this.

"Boys, I want to speak with you about Sarah." 

Liam and Steven looked at each other.

"About Sarah? What's in your mind?"

"She's out cold now. The little cleaning had her totally exhausted. And I want to use the opportunity to speak with you about her. She's slacking a lot, lies to me and backtalks in every situation. I said I want to implement tomorrow some new rules for her."

"Dad," Steven started low, leaning forward, "we can't let her slack like today.She's fightin' it... needs real motivation. But we have an idea. We have made a video you have to watch."

Mike rubbed his temples, the whiskey not dulling the unease twisting in his gut.

"Video? What the hell are you..."

Liam cut in, snatching the phone from his brother and thumbing it open before Mike could protest. The screen lit up their faces in harsh blue: Sarah, flushed and tear-streaked, hands laced behind her head, her tank top bunched over her bra. Her black lace panties clung transparently, the damp spot glaring under the room's light. And there, stuffed in her mouth... her own crusty panties, the fabric bulging her cheeks as she mumbled around it.

"Mmm sorree... my pushy ish shoakin' weh... fank oo for motivatin' me."

Her voice cracked, garbled and pathetic, but the whimper at the end? Undeniable. A soft, involuntary buck of her hips against nothing.

Mike's breath hitched, his grip tightening on the glass. He leaned closer despite himself, the image searing: her C-cups heaving, nipples like diamonds through the bra, thighs pressed together in a futile hide. The boys had captured it all... the shame, the squirm, and yeah, that traitorous glisten. His cock twitched under the table, unbidden, and he shifted, heat crawling up his neck. She's my stepdaughter. Family. But the power... god, the control after years of scraping by, the ex's ghost still mocking him.

"Turn it off," he growled, voice rougher than intended. "Now. That's your sister."

Steven smirked, pocketing the phone.

"STEP-sister.", he corrected his father.

"But look. She's soaked from the slaps. We felt it when we grabbed her... pussy throbbed like a heartbeat. She's into it, Dad, even if she bitches. We could use that. Tease her during chores, edge till she begs to focus. No more half-assin'."

Liam nodded eagerly, leaning in.

"Yeah, and if she sasses? Make her earn it... slapping, finger her or whatever, get her close but no cum till she earns it. Builds discipline. Like trainin' a dog, but... hotter."

He grinned, all teeth, the childish glee from earlier twisted darker now.

Mike exhaled sharply, the whiskey sloshing as he set the glass down. Uncomfortable didn't cover it... his stomach knotted, a flicker of this is wrong battling the dark thrill pooling low. She's 18. Legal. And hell, the way she looked bent over... No. Slow. He was the adult here, the one holding the line.

"Boys, listen. That's... too much. She's family, not some porn stunt. We motivate... slaps if she slacks, supervision to keep her honest. But edging? Forced... whatever? Not yet. We build. Log it all, review evenings. If she's wet like that vid shows, fine... note it as 'progress.' Use it to push, but no breaking her. She's not a fucktoy. Yet." The word slipped out before Mike realized it.

"I… I mean… we shouldn't.", mike gave up.

Steven grined but said nothing.

"Fair. But inspections during uniform checks? Feel if she's 'motivated'? Keeps her honest."

Mike paused, the idea lodging like a hook. Brief feels. Just to gauge. His mind flashed to her over his knee, skirt hiked, fingers brushing that heat...

"OK, inspections, slaps to motivate her. Videos to document it. But no videos outside this house. Ever."

Liam and Steven nodded.

"We could make a log, too. Where we note her mistakes, slacks, backtalks anything.", Steven said.

"Oh, and we could note her arousal, too. Document her "progress", Liam added.

Mike listened to them and nodded then.

He grabbed a notepad from the counter, scribbling quick... the rules solidifying as he went, incorporating their poison but diluting it. Uniform standard. Duty schedule. The log. Job proof. Evaluation. By the time he finished, it was midnight, the list staring back like a contract from hell.

"I will give this Sarah tomorrow," he said, tearing off the page and folding it. "Breakfast meeting. She signs, or room-sharing starts Monday. And boys? This stays between us."

They nodded, smirks mirroring his own reluctant one, and filed out. Mike lingered, draining the glass, the vid's echo looping in his head. Slow. But yeah... it'll work.

I woke to the blare of my alarm, groggy and disoriented, my body a tangle of aches and sticky sheets. 7:05 AM. Sunlight sliced through the blinds, hitting my face like a slap. My tank top was twisted around my waist, one leg kicked free of the covers, and between my thighs... god, the dampness. I'd crashed hard after that story... Lea's bet turning into a full-on family free-for-all, her squirting over her stepdad's hand while the brothers pinned her. My fingers had flown, chasing that edge until I'd shattered, biting my pillow to muffle the cry. Hate how hot it was. Like me, but worse. I shifted, wincing at the tender throb on my ass... the handprints from yesterday still faint but insistent. A flush crept up my neck. They saw. Touched. And I... got wet?

"Sarah! Breakfast. Now."

Mike's voice boomed from the kitchen, sharper than usual. I groaned, peeling myself up and yanking on yesterday's jeans and a fresh tank... armor, even if it felt flimsy. No time for a shower; Liam was already banging on the bathroom door.

"Hurry up, princess! Some of us gotta piss."

"Fuck off," I muttered, slipping past him with a glare. His grin followed me, that same sharky one from the room. Creep.

The kitchen smelled of burnt toast and coffee. Mike at the head of the table, newspaper folded, a notepad page taped to the fridge like a death warrant. Steven and Liam flanked him, picking at cereal, eyes flicking to me with identical smirks. What now?

"Sit," Mike said, not looking up.

I dropped into my chair, grabbing a bowl, my stomach knotting.

"Slept like shit?"

"Exhausted," I said flatly, spooning cereal. Truth: The orgasm had wrecked me, dreams bleeding into reality... hands on my skin, that unwelcome pulse. "What's with the note?"

He slid the paper across... five rules, written by hand like a lease agreement. 
1: Chore uniform standard: Tank top and shorts only for easy access. 
2: Inspection checks for compliance.
3: Progress Log: Demerits for slack, sass, lies... Evening review with body language noted. 
4: Evaluation: Weekly audit... reactions factor in progress. 
5: Chores: Monday-Friday. Once hired in a job, the schedule can be modified, weekends free if clean log. 

"What the fuck is this?" I snatched it, voice pitching. "You... you made this without me? While I was asleep?"

Mike's jaw tightened, but his eyes held steady... darker, almost hungry.

"Family decision. Fair's fair, Sarah. You lied, slacked on chores, whined. This keeps you accountable. Sign it, or pack for the boys' room."

Steven chuckled low.

"We talked it over, sis. Saw how... motivated you got yesterday. This'll help."

Motivated? My pulse hammered, the vid flashing unbidden... me gagged, confessing on camera. They showed him. Oh god.

"You creeps. Plotting like pervs while I..."

"Language," Mike cut in, voice like gravel. "First demerit. Log it, Liam."

Liam pulled out a notebook... the log, already open on the counter... and scribbled: 8:12 AM: Sass at rules. Demerit 1. I stared, throat tight, the spoon clattering into my bowl. Rebellion burned... screw this, I'll run... but the rent, the room, the nowhere-else-to-go... it snuffed it cold.

"What is that now? A log for my mistakes?", I asked shocked.

"Yes, exactly. We will note every time you slack, backtalk, be rude to your supervisors and log your… motivation.", Mike explained.

"At the end of the day you will have to face the consequences."

"Consequences?", I repeated him in disbelief.

"What, spanking? Like a little kid? I'm 18 years old."

"Yes, could be spanking. If you received more than five entries you can expect at least a spanking.
On Friday we will evaluate your efficiency and your progress. If necessary we will adjust the rules. Could be loser. But could be also stricter."

"That's… Fine," I whispered in resignation and grabbed the pen. My signature shook, ink smudging. "But this is bullshit. I'm finding a job today. Diner called back... interview after school."

Mike nodded, almost approving.

"Good. Forward the email. And Sarah? Uniform starts after school. Lose the jeans for chores."

I fled to school, legs prickling in the cool air, the rules burning in my mind. They know. Planned it.

While lunch I went to the toilets. The cabins were how you would expect it for a public school.

The air was filled with a strong smell of urine and cleaning products.

I locked myself in a cubicle and pulled my jeans and panties down and realized with shame… my panties are soaked.

"Why? Only because I thought the whole day about the rules? I hate my body."

I pulled my phone out while peeing.

Anna texted class: Rules? Spill. 

I typed back: Nightmare. I have a uniform now for cleaning. Log for my duties and inspections… and motivations… 
At least I have a interview at the diner after school... save me? 

Her reply: Hot. Send uniform pic after.

I typed again: Hot? I would rather say disgusting.

Anna: Café again today?

Me: No sorry. Can't. After interview chores again. I text you when I have time.

I moaned slightly after I wiped my slit and pulled my pants and underwear back up and joined the class again.

The last hours dragged on. Finally, the last bell rang and released us from school. But the day was not very useful for me. I couldn't concentrate on nothing beside the rules and my chores. But for now I tried to clear my mind for the interview.

I walked to the diner. From our school the diner was only some minutes away.

The interview was a sleaze-fest wrapped in grease stains. Midnight Brew Diner squatted on the edge of town, neon sign flickering "Open 24/7" like a bad omen. Vic, the owner, was a paunchy 50-something with a cigar stub and eyes that undressed me on sight.

"Sarah, right? Legs for days... tips'll roll in."

He handed me the uniform: Pleated skirt short enough to flash on a sneeze, low-cut blouse that plunged to my navel, apron like a joke. No thigh-highs... bare legs all the way, skin prickling at the thought.

"Change in the back," he said, jerking a thumb at a cramped office door. 

"Gotta see the fit."

"In the back? Do you have a changing room? I'd like to have some privacy."

He chuckled, yellow teeth flashing.

"Door's got a lock, sweetheart. But hurry... shift starts in ten."

"Shift? I thought we have an interview?", I asked confused.

"Interview? Girl, you will serve drinks and have to smile and bend sometimes. Anything more we will see. Trial shift will show if you have what's important for the job. But when I look at you it seems you have anything what you need."

I shuddered and stepped in the back room.

The room stank of old fries and sweat, a full-length mirror propped against crates. I stripped quick, jeans off, standing only in my bra and panties... 
I slipped into the blouse first. It hugged my C-cups under the thin fabric. The skirt barely skimmed my ass, hem dancing on my thighs. Bare legs gleamed under the bulb, vulnerable, the breeze from the AC vent kissing higher than it should. I tugged it down, mortified, and stepped out.

Vic leaned on the counter, eyes widening.

"Turn for me, doll. Yeah... perfect. Bend over... grab that menu off the floor."

What? Heat flooded me. I bent slow, skirt riding up, cool air hitting my panties. His gaze burned... felt it on the curve of my cheeks, the lace outline. Suddenly I felt a slap at my butt. I jumped and straightened  my body up again.

"Good girl. Loosen up out there... smile, flirt a bit. The Dawn Patrol loves fresh meat."

I straightened, face flaming.

"I'm here to work, not... whatever."

He patted my hip... brief check echoing in my head.

"Attitude like that? Tips dry up. Trial shift now. Impress me."

The first shift blurred into hell. Table after table: Truckers leering at my legs as I poured coffee, hands "accidentally" brushing my thigh when I set plates. The Dawn Patrol... four grizzled fossils in the corner booth, flannel shirts and watery eyes... started mild.

"Hey, sunshine, legs like that in this skirt? Dangerous.

I iced them: "Coffee black?" No smile, no chit-chat. One reached for the menu, fingers grazing my bare knee.

"Sit a spell, cutie... buy ya a soda."

"Busy," I snapped, turning away, skirt swishing dangerously. Their laughs followed, low and knowing. 

After serving a drink I felt a hand at my thigh. I slapped the hand away.

"That's not on the menu.", I said cold.

"Ah… come on, baby. I have here 10$ saying otherwise.", an old guy held up a 10$ bill. 

"Screw you. Keep your money. Anything else you want."

"We will see, babydoll.", another old guy said.

After some hours my muscles screamed... I'd cleared $5 in tips. Some nickels and a crumpled one with a "Try harder, frosty" scribbled on a napkin.

Vic counted the drawer in the office, cigar smoke curling.

"Five bucks? With that ass? C'mon, Sarah... those boys wanted you at their table. Beers flow, tips too. Loosen up, or..."

He stepped close, hand on my waist, thumb circling.

"Show me how you'd 'warm' 'em. Hike it... twirl."

My stomach dropped, echoes of home rules screaming. Brief check. Rebellion flared... "Fuck you"... but rent. The vid. I spun quick, skirt flaring, panties flashing white in the mirror behind him. Damp? Fuck. His chuckle rumbled.

"Better. Practice that... If you ask me you are hired. Next shift on Thursday, sit with 'em. Earn it."

I fled into the night, skirt hiked under my jeans for the walk home, thighs chafing. Dawn crept up as I slipped in... Mike's light off, but the log sat open on the counter. No entry yet. But tonight...

At six p.m. I arrived at home.

"Sarah? That's you? You got the job?", Mike asked.

"Yeah, had a trial shift. This Thursday the first real shift begins."

"Good girl. Rest a little. Then chores."

I nodded, sighed and went to my room. 

In my room I leaned against my closed door and rubbed my temples.

I jumped on my bed and took my phone out.

Got the job. Skimpy uniform, touchy customers. Hate it.

"Fuck… already wet… Why?"

My hand wanders down my belly under the waistband of my jeans. My finger found my clit and it felt like an explosion.

The situation in the diner began to replay in my head. Me at in the short skirt and the tight blouse. The hands of the customers.

My finger began to move faster.

Knock, knock.

Fuuuuck.

"Sis, the house won't clean it my itself.", I heard Liams voice.

I jumped and pulled my hand out of my pants.

"Coming." Fuck that's closer at the truth than I want it.

"Can't wait for it."

Horny and desperate I went down and saw Mike, Liam and Steven waiting in the kitchen.

"Jeans? Hoodie?"Liam drawled, leaning back in his chair. 

"Sis, Rule 1: Uniform for chores. Tank and shorts only. Or did you forget how to read?"

Mike didn't look up, but his voice cut through.

"Boys, get her changed. Supervision starts now… no more shortcuts."

Heat flooded my cheeks, rebellion sparking hot in my chest. 

"I was just… fine, whatever." 

My feet dragged as Liam hopped up, grabbing my elbow with that boyish grin, Steven flanking my other side like twin wardens. 

The door creaked open, and I twisted free, shooting them a glare. 

"Out. I can change alone."

Steven chuckled, leaning against the frame, arms crossed. 

"Nah. Rule says supervised. Strip, sis. Let's see the show."

Liam nodded, eyes gleaming as he shut the door behind us—soft click, no lock, but enough to trap the space. My stomach knotted, pulse hammering, but I turned my back, fingers fumbling the hoodie's zipper. It peeled off slow, revealing the thin white tank clinging to my curves, the lacy edge of my black bra peeking at the straps. Cool air kissed my skin, nipples tightening traitor against the fabric despite the flush burning my neck.

"Keep going," Liam murmured, voice low and eager, both of them settling on the bed's edge like they owned the room… which, fuck, they kinda did now.

Jeans next. I unbuttoned them with shaking hands, shimmying the denim down my hips, until it pooled at my ankles. Underneath, the black lace panties hugged low, sheer enough to hint at the smooth mound beneath. Hoping they didn't catch the wet spot on it I stepped free quick, kicking my pants aside.

Steven whistled soft. 

"Lace today? Motivated already?"

"Shut up," I hissed, snatching the shorts from my drawer. Black loose shorts covering half my tigh.

"Those? Nah, sis. I'm sure you've got something better." Before I could snap back, Steven brushed past me and rifled through the drawer himself, fingers delving into the mess of folded clothes like it was his laundry day.

"Here we go." He pulled out the pair I'd hidden at the back: short, tight black spandex shorts, the kind that rode up like a second skin, barely covering the bottom curve of my ass. He dangled them from his fingers, smirking wider. 
"These. Uniform standard. Easy access, remember? Put 'em on."

My cheeks burned, pulse hammering as I snatched them, the lace panties shifting uncomfortably. Liam chuckled from the door, blocking any escape. Bastards. No choice. I turned my back.. half-assed privacy… and peeled off the longer shorts, stepping into the black ones instead. They hugged like a vice, the fabric stretching taut over my hips, digging into the lace beneath, the hem cutting high enough that every bend would flash cheek.

I spun back, arms crossed over my chest, thighs pressed tight against the unwelcome squeeze low in my belly. 

"Happy now?"

Steven's eyes raked down—slow, approving—lingering on the way the shorts cupped my ass.

"Much better. Now, chores. Log's waiting."

Liam opened me the door and waited for me.

"You are such gentleman, if you be more kind to me I will vomit right here at your feets."

I stormed angry and flushed out of the room when I felt his hand slapping my ass.

"Keep your hands by yourself."

Behind me I heard Liam giggle.

"I couldn't hold back with these shorts.", I snorted. 

In the kitchen I began to clean the mess. I bent for the lower cabinet... shorts riding up... and felt his hand again. Not a slap, a squeeze on my inner thigh, thumb brushing lace.

"Missed a spot, sis.", Liam chuckled.

"Just checking motivation."

Heat bloomed, unwanted, my breath hitching.

"Get off," I hissed, jerking up... but softer, the fight ebbing.

He grinned, pulling the notebook. 6:21 PM: Sass during inspection. Demerit 2.

"Evening review'll be fun."

I slammed the sponge into the sink, suds splashing up my arms.

"Fun? For who, you perv?"

The words slipped out before I could clamp my mouth shut... rebellion's last gasp, hot and futile. Steven's hand was still warm on my thigh, the ghost of his thumb lingering where it had brushed too close to my core. I could feel it: that traitorous slickness building, my body waking up to the wrong cues again. God, why? It's not fair. Not after the diner shift, the leers, Vic's hand on my waist like I was property.

Steven's grin widened, all teeth and triumph, as he uncapped the pen with a deliberate click. The log's pages rustled... already half-filled with their chicken-scratch from the morning: Demerit 1 for my rules sass.

"6:23 PM: Backtalk during motivation check. Demerit 3. Keep it up, sis... Dad's review tonight. Might hit the magic number."

The kitchen felt smaller, the air thicker, Mike's rules echoing in my head like a bad loop. Brief checks. Progress noted. My skin prickled under Steven's stare, nipples tightening against the fabric of my bra. Not from cold. From this. The exposure, the control. Anna's story had cracked something open last night... Lea's forced moans, the way her body bucked even as she sobbed. 

Is that me now? Wet from a squeeze and a threat?

"Fuck your log," I muttered, turning back to the counters, scrubbing harder than needed. The tile bit into my bare feet, grounding me. Chore day number one under the new regime, and already three demerits. At five, consequences kicked in... whatever hell that meant.

Steven and Liam didn't leave. They watched, legs spread casual on the stool.

"Kitchen's done. Boys' room next."

I exhaled sharp, tossing the sponge in the sink.

"Yeah, yeah. Lead the way, warden."

Sass again? Probably. But biting it back felt like surrender, and I wasn't there. Not yet.

Their room hit me like a wall... stale sweat, unwashed socks, the faint musky undercurrent that made my stomach twist. Clothes everywhere, energy drink cans toppled like casualties, and under the beds? I didn't want to know.

"Under my bed first... got some... inspiration to clean."

His voice dripped mock-innocence, eyes on my bare legs, tracing the hem of my shorts where they clung to my hips.

Steven shut the door... soft click, not locked, but enough to trap the air.

"One hour starts now. On your knees."

I dropped, knees hitting the carpet with a thud that jarred my bones. The space under Liam's bed was a war zone: Dust bunnies, a crumpled comic, and... fuck... more tissues. Crusty, yellowed, the smell hitting sharp and salty. My hand hovered, stomach lurching.

"You animals. Can't you use a trash can?"

Liam chuckled, sliding off the bed to kneel behind me.

"Motivation, remember? Rule 1... uniform's for ease. Shorts off if you whine."

His breath ghosted my neck, close enough I felt the heat.

I froze, ass up from the crawl, shorts riding high enough to expose the crease where thigh met cheek. Rebellion surged... screw this, stand up, slap him... but the log loomed. Demerits. Room-sharing. Rent. I swallowed, reaching for the nearest tissue, the sticky drag on my fingers making me gag.

"Fine. Happy?"

"Not yet."

Liam's hand landed... not hard, but firm... cupping my ass through the fabric, squeezing slow. Like he was testing fruit. His thumb dipped lower, brushing the edge of my shorts, perilously close to the damp seam of my panties.

"Just a check. Rule says brief. You wet again, sis? Like in the vid?"

The vid. My face burned, buried under the bed, but my body? Traitor. A fresh pulse throbbed between my legs, clit aching against the cotton. I jerked forward, tissue clutched like a shield.

"Get. Off."

Voice cracked, half-hiss, half-whimper. Steven laughed from the desk chair. He scribbled: 6:45 PM: Resistance to inspection. Demerit 4.

"Dad's gonna love this. Evening's lookin' spicy."

I crawled out, cheeks flaming, tissues balled in my fist. Liam's hand lingered a beat too long, sliding down my thigh... bare skin electric under his palm... before he pulled back.

"Trash 'em. Then Steven's side. And arch more next time... makes it easier to... reach."

The hour dragged. Steven's bed yielded worse: Not just tissues, but a pair of my missing panties from last week's laundry, stiff and stained.

"You stole these? Again?" I hissed, holding them at arm's length, the scent... mine mixed with their filth... making my head spin.

"Borrowed," Steven said, standing now, close enough his crotch brushed my shoulder as I knelt. "Smelled you on 'em. Hot. Now, check time."

No warning... his fingers hooked my shorts' waistband, tugging down an inch, exposing the top of my panties. Cool air hit, and his hand followed: Palm flat on my lower back, sliding south to cup between my legs under my shorts. Not inside my panties, but pressing, the heel of his hand grinding against my mound through the layer.

"Yeah... soaked. Progress, huh? Log it."

I bucked... instinct, shame-fueled... but it only pressed me harder into his touch, a gasp slipping free. Wet. Obvious now, the fabric clinging. Why does it do this? The pressure, the eyes, the wrongness... it's like my pussy's got a mind of its own, clenching around nothing, begging for what my brain screams no to.

"Stop," I whispered, voice breathy, defeated. Demerit 5 incoming, I knew it.

He released, smirking as I yanked the shorts up. Notebook scratch: 6:50 PM: Arousal confirmed during check. Positive progress, but sass resistance. Demerit 5. The "positive" stung worse than the rest... like they owned that too. And with that the hope to have at least the evening for me is over. Over five points I'd have to expect "consequences"… 

By the time the hour ticked over, the room was passable... floors swept, trash bagged, beds half-made. I stood on shaking legs, thighs sticky, tank damp under my arms from sweat and something hotter.

"I'm done," I said exhausted.

Steven leaned back in his chair, legs spread wide like he owned the space... which, fuck, he kinda did now.

"Done? Nah, sis. Rule 2... full hour means full. Living room next. Vacuum time."

My knees ached from the carpet, thighs rubbing slick with every step as I grabbed the vacuum from the hall closet. The cord tangled around my ankle... clumsy from the haze in my head, that unwanted throb refusing to quit. I yanked it free, harder than needed, and the plug whipped back, smacking the wall with a crack. Liam snorted.

"Careful, or that's slack... demerit 6."

"Shut up," I snapped, flipping the switch.

Steven and Liam followed, "supervising" me in the living room.

The roar drowned them out, but not the heat in my cheeks, the way my shorts wedged deeper with each push. Bare legs flexed under the tank, muscles taut, and I caught my reflection in the TV screen... flushed face, hair sticking to my neck, shorts tight around my curves. 

Stevens hand "guiding" the cord away from my feet. Fingers brushed my calf, then higher, lingering on the back of my knee.

"Steady there. Wouldn't want you trippin."

I jerked the vacuum forward, away from Liams touch, but the cord caught again... tangled in my haste. The machine tipped, buzzing wild against the couch leg, and I bent to untangle it, ass up, shorts riding high. Cool air kissed the crease of my cheeks, panties peeking. Liam's whistle cut through the hum.

"Spot check.", Liam said.

No time to straighten... his palm landed flat on my exposed skin, not a slap but a slow drag, thumb hooking the shorts' edge and tugging them aside just enough to bare half a cheek. The lace of my panties shifted, fabric pulling taut against my soaked core, and I felt it: the damp outline, visible, embarrassing.

"Stop... fuck!"

I twisted, vacuum clattering, but Steven was there, steadying me with hands on my hips. His grip tightened, thumbs circling the dimples above my ass, pressing me back into position.

"Demerit 6: Equipment mishandle. And 7: Sass. You're rackin' 'em up, Sarah.", noted Steven.

Seven. The number burned, evaluation threshold looming like a guillotine. I shoved them off, yanking the shorts straight, the fabric chafing my swollen lips. The vacuum whined back to life, and I finished in silence... strokes mechanical, body screaming. By the end, the living room gleamed, but I didn't. Sweat-slick, thighs glistening (not all from effort), I coiled the cord with shaking hands.

"There. Living room is clean. Happy now, assholes?"

Liam snatched the log, pen flying: 7:17 PM: Backtalk post-chore. Demerit 8.

"Over the top, sis. Evening's gonna sting."

I didn't argue. Couldn't. The fight curdled into something heavier... resignation laced with that sick spark low in my belly. I fled to my room, door slamming, collapsing onto the bed in a heap. The tank clung, shorts damp where it counted most. I peeled them off, staring at the crotch: Dark, obvious, the cotton molded to my shame. *Why? The squeezes, the checks, the eyes... it's like my body's rewriting the script, turning humiliation into heat.* Anna's words echoed: *The mix of hate and heat.* Fuck her for being right.

Fingers circled slow over my clit, slick and swollen, the memory replaying: Steven's heel grinding, that pressure building. A soft moan escaped... hate it, need it. But the door creaked.

"Sarah! Dinner. Then review."

Mike's voice, gruff through the wood.

No time. I yanked on fresh shorts... loose ones, rebellion's small win... and headed down. The table was set: Pasta steaming, but the air? Charged. Mike at the head, boys on sides, the log open like a bible between them. I sat, legs crossing tight. The dampness still a constant reminder from my body.

"Eat," Mike said, forking his plate.

Silence chewed louder than the food. My appetite? Gone. Every bite stuck, the demerits tallying in my head. Eight. What now? Spanks? More "checks"? The vid hung unspoken, their secret pact a ghost at the table.

Plates cleared, Mike wiped his mouth, pulling the log close.

"Evening review. Rule 3... accountability."

His voice was steady, but his eyes? They flicked to my tank, the way it hugged my chest, then lower to my crossed legs. Uncomfortable, yeah... like yesterday's vacuum stare... but edged with something new. Ownership.

"Eight demerits. Sass four times, slack twice, resistance to checks twice. And..."

He paused, pen tapping.

"Positive notes: Arousal confirmed during inspections. Progress on motivation."

My fork froze mid-air, face igniting. They logged that?

"You can't..."

"Demerit 9," Liam chirped, scribbling.

Steven smirked, phone face-down but tempting.

Mike held up a hand.

"Enough. Rule 5... evaluation starts at five. Nine means consequences. Tonight: Over my knee, two swats per demerit. Eighteen total. Shorts down after ten... bare for the rest. And during? Brief checks. To gauge."

The room spun. Over his knee. Bare. Checks. Rebellion roared... No, fuck this, I'm out... but my legs wouldn't move. The vid. Rent. Their eyes, hungry now, Mike's included. That dark flicker in him, the power they plotted. I stood slow, chair scraping, throat dry.

"Fine. But this is... wrong."

Mike pushed his chair back, patting his thigh... broad, denim-clad, waiting.

"Over. Now."

I draped across, belly on his lap, ass up, the position childlike and filthy all at once. My tank rode up, exposing midriff; shorts hugged my cheeks. His hand rested light on my back... steadying, but heavy.

"Count 'em. Thank you after each. Builds respect."

The first swat landed... Steven's turn, palm cracking sharp over my shorts. Sting bloomed, heat radiating.

"One," I gritted. "Thank you."

Liam next... lower, catching the crease.

"Two. Thank you."

Mike's was firmest, centered, jolting me forward into his thigh. The ridge there... hard, unmistakable... pressed against my hip. Oh god.

"Three. Thank you."

They rotated, hands alternating... Steven's playful, Liam's eager, Mike's measured but building. By ten, my ass throbbed, shorts damp at the seam, the friction of each strike grinding me against his leg.

"Shorts off," Mike grunted, fingers hooking the waistband.

I lifted hips... instinct, shame... and they slid down to my ankles, panties with them, baring me to the air. Pussy exposed, lips puffy and glistening under their stares.

Liam grabbed my shorts and my panties and removed them completely so Mike could spread my legs more, interlocking his with mine so I couldn't clench my legs anymore shut.

"Checks during," Mike murmured, like it was protocol.

His hand cupped first... not swatting, but parting my cheeks, thumb grazing my slit. Slick sound, audible.

"Stop, don't look."

I whimpered, the touch sending sparks up my spine. Liam followed, fingers tracing my folds... light, teasing the entrance without dipping in.

"Edging potential here, Dad. She's close."

Steven's turn next... his swat lighter but stingier, aimed at the undercurve where thigh met ass, the impact rippling straight to my core.

"Eleven. Thank you," I choked out, voice muffled against Mike's thigh, my breath hot and ragged.

His hand followed the swat, not a cup but a deliberate stroke: Two fingers parting my lips, sliding along the slick valley without mercy, circling my clit once... twice... before pulling away. The denial hit like a slap, my hips bucking involuntary into empty air, a whine escaping despite my clamped jaw. Close. So fucking close. The heat coiled tight, muscles trembling, but no release. Just the echo of his touch, the wet trail cooling on my skin.

"See? Edging works," Steven murmured, like we were lab rats in his twisted experiment.

Mike shifted under me, his erection grinding firmer against my side... unignorable now, thick and insistent through his jeans. He cleared his throat, hand returning to my back, steadying as Liam took the next swing. Harder, the boyish eagerness behind it making the sting sharper, my toes curling against the carpet.

"Twelve. Thank you."

Liam's "check" was bolder... finger dipping inside, shallow and teasing, curling against that spot that made stars burst behind my eyes. I clenched around him, desperate, the slick sounds obscene in the quiet room.

"Dad, she's clenchin'... beggin' without words. Let me push her over?"

Mike's grip tightened on my waist, a low grunt escaping him... conflict warring in his voice, that uncomfortable edge fraying.

"No. Not yet. Discipline, boys... not reward. Pull back."

Liam obeyed, but slow, dragging his finger free with a wet pop that echoed like shame. The emptiness ached, my pussy fluttering around nothing, the denied peak leaving me raw and throbbing. I hated it... their hands mapping me like territory, Mike's reluctant command the only thin line holding the flood back. But god, the power in his lap, the way his thigh flexed under my belly... it fed the wrong fire, my nipples scraping the tank with every heave.

The swats blurred into a rhythm of fire and denial, each crack pulling a count from my lips like a confession.

"Thirteen. Thank you."

Steven again, his palm cupping after... fingers splaying over my bare cheeks, one dipping to trace my asshole lightly, a new violation that made me clench and gasp. The touch was fleeting, teasing the rim without breaching, but it sent a jolt straight to my clit, the coil winding tighter. I hated how my body arched into it, subtle but there, chasing the friction like a junkie. Mike's hand on my back pressed firmer, anchoring me... his breath heavier now, ragged against my ear. He knew. Felt the tremor in my frame, the slick trail leaking down my thigh.

"Fourteen. Thank you."

Liam's turn, the swat landing off-center, stinging the sensitive spot where ass met thigh. His check was messier... two fingers plunging shallow, scissoring just enough to stretch me, the wet schlick echoing off the walls. I bit my lip to stifle the moan, but it bubbled out anyway, a pathetic mewl that had Steven chuckling.

"Hear that, Dad? She's humpin' air. One more push... let her pop. Earns better behavior tomorrow."

Mike's thigh tensed under me, his cock a steel rod against my hip, twitching with the plea. The air thickened, his conflict cracking... uncomfortable patriarch warring with the man who'd watched the vid, who'd scripted these rules in whiskey haze. My pussy a mess, lips swollen and slick, the denied ache pulsing like a second heartbeat. I could feel it dripping now, a warm trickle down my inner thigh, exposed and undeniable under the kitchen's harsh light. The boys' eyes devoured it... Steven's hungry, Liam's gleeful... while Mike's hand on my back trembled just a fraction, his control fraying at the edges. He wanted to stop, I could sense it in the hitch of his breath, the way his fingers dug into my side like an anchor. But the power? It glued him there, same as me. The vid had been the crack; this was the flood.

"Fifteen. Thank you."

Mike's turn... his swat the heaviest yet, palm broad and unyielding, landing dead center with a crack that echoed off the cabinets. The sting bloomed nuclear, radiating heat that licked straight to my core, my clit throbbing in response. I bucked forward, grinding unintentional against his thigh, the denim rough through my tank.

His "check" followed seamless, no pause for mercy: Rough fingers parting me wide, middle one sliding deep... knuckle-deep, curling against that spongy spot inside that made my vision white out. The stretch burned sweet, my walls clenching greedy around the invasion, chasing the friction as he pumped once, twice, thumb flicking my clit in lazy circles. Close. Fuck, so close... the coil snapped taut, orgasm hovering like a storm cloud, my breath shattering into sobs.

"Mike... please..."

"No," he rasped, voice gravel and guilt, yanking free with a wet schlick that left me hollow, spasming around air.

The denial crashed over me, tears pricking hot as I buried my face in the crook of his arm, humiliated whimpers muffled against his shirt. He smelled like whiskey and soap, familiar and wrong, his cock straining harder now, a blatant ridge that nudged my hip with every shift.

"Discipline," he repeated, more to himself than us, but the word cracked... laced with that dark thrill they'd planted last night. Boys' input, their poison seeping in. 

"Tease her. Edge till she begs."

The last three blurred into agony-ecstasy. Steven's swat stung high, near my tailbone, his fingers after teasing my rim again... circling, pressing just enough to make me clench and gasp, the dual violation (front and back) winding me tighter without mercy.

"Sixteen. Thank you."

Liam's was sloppy, eager... crack across both cheeks, then two fingers plunging sloppy, scissoring wide, his free hand pinning my thigh open wider. The exposure burned, cool air kissing my stretched hole, slick noises obscene as he worked me to the brink again, my hips rolling desperate despite the sobs.

"Seventeen. Thank you."

And Mike's finale... firm, paternal almost, but the check? Deliberate torment: Three fingers this time, filling me full, thumb on my clit rubbing firm circles while his other hand splayed my cheeks, holding me open for their view. The pressure built relentless, my body betraying me with a flood of fresh slick, walls fluttering wild.

"Eighteen. Thank you. Please... Mike... let me..."

"Let her dad. But let her first say how sorry she is, you know how," Liam said while grabbing my damp panties from the floor and let it dangle from his finger.

"Your choice Sarah. Nobody forces you. If you want, you can go to your room and do it on your own. But if you want it here and now... Take your wet panties, stuff them in your mouth and say sorry to us," Steven said while wiggling my cheek.

My mind fractured in that moment, Mike's fingers buried deep, thick and unyielding, stretching me around the intrusion while his thumb held still on my clit... circling lazy, torturous, keeping the fire banked but roaring. The edge was a knife's blade: One push, and I'd shatter; one pull, and I'd shatter anyway, just slower, meaner. Eighteen swats done, my ass a throbbing map of handprints, cheeks clenching around Mikes fingers. My exposed pussy right in their view, every drip of my arousal a spotlight on the slick mess coating 

Liam dangled my panties from his finger, the cotton sodden and limp, the dark crotch patch glaring like evidence in a trial. My scent wafted up, bitter and intimate, twisting my gut. Steven's hand on my cheek... wiggling it playful, demeaning... sent a fresh jolt through me, my nipple scraping the tank as I shifted, the friction a cruel echo of the denied peak. Nobody forces you.0 Bullshit. The rules did. The log did. But this? This is my body who forced me. Who left me with no choice.

And the choice dangled right infront of my face in form of my wet panties. 

In my room alone, fingers frantic under covers, chasing what they'd built. Or here... gagged on my shame, apologizing to their smirks, earning the release with fresh humiliation. My body voted first: A clench around Mike's fingers, hips twitching forward, chasing that curl inside me. Traitor. The heat hated me for it, but god, the ache... it begged.

Tears blurred the carpet fibers below, hot tracks down my cheeks, but my hand moved anyway... trembling, reaching for the panties Liam swung like a taunt.

"G-good… I… I will do it," I whispered, voice wrecked, the word tasting like defeat.

His grin split wide, boyish triumph.

I lunged... awkward over Mike's lap, ass still bared and throbbing, my fingers clawing air as Liam yanked the panties just out of reach. The damp fabric swung like a pendulum, mocking me. My stretch pulled me forward, Mike's fingers shifting inside me... unintentional curl that scraped my walls, drawing a gasp that bordered on a moan.

"G-give... them" I stammered, heat flooding my face, tears stinging fresh.

Liam's laugh was pure mischief, eyes sparkling as he danced the panties higher, out of my grasp.

"Try harder, sis. You want 'em that bad? Earn it."

He dangled them closer... close enough I felt the wet cotton brush my fingertips... then whipped them away again, the motion sending a droplet flying, splattering my wrist. Steven chuckled, his hand still on my cheek, thumb tracing the curve like he owned the flush.

"Look at her... desperate already. Bet that pussy's clenching for a taste of her own mess."

The second grab was frantic, my body twisting across Mike's thigh, hips grinding down in the shift... his cock a hot brand against my side, twitching through denim. Fingers grazed the lace this time, snagging the edge, but Liam twisted his wrist, pulling free with a wet snap.

"Nope. Beg nicer."

Mike's hand stilled inside me... thumb pausing on my clit, the denial a fresh torture, my walls fluttering helpless around his thickness. The edge sharpened, cruel and insistent, every denied pulse a scream in my veins. Desperation cracked me open: Not just for the release, but the gag... the humiliation to match the heat.

Third try... I arched up, belly lifting off his lap, free hand bracing on Mikes lap for leverage, ass clenching as I strained. Tears blurred, snot threatening, but my fingers closed... hooked the waistband, yanking hard. Liam let go with a feigned yelp, the panties slapping into my palm, sodden and heavy.

"There ya go. Good girl."

Triumph? No... shame, thick and choking, as I stared at the evidence: My arousal, dark and damning, the fabric molded to my shame like a second skin.

Nobody spoke. The room held its breath... Mike's fingers buried still. Boys' eyes locked on my trembling hand.

The weight of the panties in my palm felt like lead... sodden, intimate, a rag of my own undoing. The damp cotton molded to my fingers, the scent rising sharp and personal, a cocktail of sweat and arousal that made my stomach lurch even as my core clenched around Mike's unmoving fingers. His touch inside me was a frozen anchor: Thick, insistent, the knuckles pressing against my walls without mercy or motion, his thumb a ghost on my clit... resting, not rubbing, holding the spark but starving the flame. The boys' silence pressed in, thick and expectant, Steven's thumb still tracing lazy circles on my cheek, Liam's grin frozen mid-triumph like he'd won the lottery on my shame.

I brought the fabric to my lips, trembling, the first press of wet cotton against my mouth a salty shock... bitter, musky, tasting of my own desperation. Tears welled fresh, spilling hot down my cheeks as I parted my lips wider, stuffing the wad in deep. It bulged my cheek like before, the crusty edges scraping my tongue, flooding my mouth with that revolting tang: Me, from yesterday's laundry theft, mingled with today's fresh betrayal. A gag rose, reflexive, but I swallowed it down, the fabric muffling my sob into a pathetic hum.

"Mmmph... shorry," I mumbled around it, the words garbled and wet, slurring past the obstruction. "Shorry for shassin'... for shlackin'... for bein' a bad girl."

Each syllable burned, the apology twisting like a knife... rebellion's death rattle, my voice small and wrecked, hips twitching involuntary against Mike's hand as if begging punctuation.

Steven's chuckle broke the hush, low and satisfied, his fingers leaving my cheek to trail down my jaw... tilting my head up, forcing eye contact.

"Louder, sis. And look at Dad while you say it. Mean it."

His eyes gleamed, Liam leaned in closer, the interlocked legs with Mike's pinning me open... No hiding the drip now, a fresh bead trailing down to pool on Mike's jeans, darkening the denim where my belly pressed. His cock throbbed against my hip... hot, insistent, a betrayal of his own... and his free hand tightened on my waist, fingers digging bruises I'd feel tomorrow.

I met Mike's gaze, or tried... his eyes were stormy, conflicted, that uncomfortable flicker warring with the dark hunger they'd planted last night over whiskey and whispers. The vid's echo hung between us: My gagged confession, hips bucking, the same pathetic need.

"Shorry, Mike," I forced out, louder, the panties shifting wet against my teeth, saliva soaking through to dribble down my chin. "Shorry for lyin'... for fightin' the rulesh... pwease... forgive me."

The plea cracked, raw and ragged, my walls fluttering around his fingers... clenching, releasing, a silent scream for the friction he'd dangled. Rebellion? Shredded. Just heat, coiling vicious, my clit pulsed under his thumb's feather-light graze. 

One circle. Please, god... one more.

Mike's breath hitched, jaw clenching as he searched my face... tears, flushed cheeks, the bulge of fabric distorting my lips. His thumb moved then, deliberate: Slow circles on my clit, firm enough to spark but lazy, dragging the peak out like taffy.

"Good girl," he rasped, the words twisting something deep in me... praise laced with power, the same tone he'd used for "count 'em" earlier.

His fingers inside curled... shallow pumps now, scissoring just enough to stretch, the wet schlick obscene in the quiet. Liam's hand joined, not inside but teasing the rim of my ass again... light presses, circling without entry, the dual assault short-circuiting my brain. Steven's fingers tangled in my hair, guiding my head back down, muffling my building moans into the gag.

"That's it. Take it like you mean it."

The build was merciless... slow, edged, every stroke a tease that wound me tighter without mercy. Mike's thumb flicked faster, fingers plunging deeper, curling against that spot that made my toes curl and vision haze. Liam's presses at my back entrance synced, a rhythm of denial and promise, while Steven's grip in my hair pulled just enough to arch my back, ass clenching under their eyes. The coil snapped without warning... brutal, shattering, my body seizing as the orgasm ripped through.

"Mmmph!"

The gag swallowed my scream, but it tore free muffled and wild, walls spasming around Mike's fingers, clit pulsing under his thumb as I gushed... hot, slick, a flood that soaked his hand and jeans, dripping down his wrist. Waves crashed, relentless, my hips bucking helpless against his lap, thighs quivering in their spread lock. Shame burned hotter than the pleasure... cumming like this, gagged on my own panties, over my stepdad's knee with my brothers watching.

Mike's fingers didn't stop... didn't falter, didn't grant a breath of mercy. They plunged deeper through the spasms, curling relentless against that devastating spot inside, his thumb grinding my clit in firm, unyielding circles that dragged the waves out longer, harder. The orgasm stretched into agony-ecstasy, my body a live wire, clenching and fluttering around the invasion as fresh gushes soaked his hand, trickling warm down my thighs to pool on the floor.

"Mmmph... fuhhh!"

The gag turned it to garbled static, but the sound ripped from my chest anyway, raw and animal, tears streaming unchecked now. Liam's finger at my ass pressed firmer... still teasing the rim, not breaching, but syncing with Mike's thrusts, a filthy counterpoint that made my toes curl and vision splinter white. Steven's grip in my hair tightened for a beat, pulling my head back just enough to arch me further, exposing the flush crawling down my neck, the tank rucked up to bare my heaving sides.

I bucked against Mike's lap, helpless, the friction of his jeans... rough denim scraping my belly, his cock a throbbing steel bar against my hip... pushing the crest higher. It shouldn't feel this good, this shattering; the shame should drown it, not fuel it. But it did... every denied edge from the swats, every "brief check," every smirk in the log crashing together in a feedback loop of wrongness. My pussy owned me now, walls milking his fingers greedy, clit swollen and electric under his thumb, the flood easing to shudders but not stopping, not with him buried deep, pumping slow and deliberate through the aftershocks. A second peak built seamless on the ruins of the first... coiling vicious from the overstimulation, my nerves raw and screaming, every curl of his fingers a spark that licked higher.

"N-no... too much... mmmph!"

The plea muffled into the panties, tasting sharper now with my saliva and tears soaking through, but my hips rolled anyway, chasing, betraying.

Liam's free hand splayed my cheek wider, holding me open for the obscene view... pussy stretched around Mike's knuckles, lips puffy and glistening, the slick sheen coating everything from his wrist to my thighs.

"Look at her go, Dad... gushin' like a faucet. Told ya edging'd work."

His voice was breathy, edged with awe, his finger circling my rim faster, pressing just enough to make me clench and gasp around the gag. Steven leaned closer, breath hot on my ear, his tug in my hair gentling to a hold.

"That's our girl. Cum again... show Dad how sorry you are."

Mike's breath rumble in his chest vibrating through me. His fingers twisted inside, scissoring wide to stretch me fuller, thumb flicking my clit sharp and precise, the dual assault shattering the second wave without mercy. It hit harder, meaner... a brutal contraction that seized my core, ripping a wail muffled into the gag as I convulsed, gushing fiercer this time, hot spurts that splattered his jeans and the carpet below. My vision tunneled black at the edges, body arching bowstring-tight over his lap, thighs quaking in their locked spread, ass clenching futile against the exposure. The pleasure bordered pain, overstretched and overwhelming, every nerve firing at once... clit pulsing wild under his thumb, walls spasming greedy around his plunging fingers, the echo of Liam's tease at my ass sending aftershocks rippling deep. I sobbed into the gag, the fabric sodden and choking, my own taste flooding my senses as the peak crested and fractured, leaving me limp and twitching, a boneless heap across his thighs.

He slowed then... fingers easing to shallow strokes, milking the last flutters without pushing for more, his thumb circling lazy now, soothing the raw throb of my clit. The room spun back into focus: Their heavy breaths, the wet glisten on Mike's hand as he finally withdrew... slow, deliberate, a final curl that drew one last whimper from me. Slick trailed from his fingers, strings of my release catching the light, and he wiped them casual on my thigh... bare skin, still trembling... like it was nothing. Like I was. His cock strained insistent against me, a hot promise he didn't acknowledge, just shifted once under my weight, grunting low.

Steven's hand released my hair... no pull now, but a shift: Fingers threading gentle through the sweaty strands, stroking back from my forehead in a mockery of comfort. His other palm settled at my nape, massaging slow circles into the knotted muscles there, thumb digging just enough to ease the tension without erasing it.

"Good job, sis," he murmured, voice soft but laced with that smug edge, like he'd scripted the whole unraveling. "Now say thank you. Proper... like in the vid."

The gag muffled it, but I tried... lips working around the soaked wad, the words slurring thick and broken.

"Fank oo... for... motivatin' me."

Saliva dribbled down my chin, mixing with tears, the taste bitter and endless. *Thank you for breaking me open. For logging my shame. For making me cum like a slut over family dinner.* Steven's strokes continued... hair smoothed, neck kneaded gentle, a twisted aftercare that only deepened the humiliation, his touch almost tender if not for the context. Liam chuckled soft, releasing my thigh, his finger leaving my ass with a final ghosting trace that made me shiver. Mike's hand on my back lingered... patting once, paternal, before helping me up, steady as I wobbled to my feet.

Legs like jelly, ass a throbbing bonfire, pussy aching empty and overused, I stood there... panties clutched damp in one hand, shorts dangling from the other, the kitchen air cool and damning on my bare everything. Their eyes raked: Mike's conflicted but sated, boys' triumphant and hungry. Cum trickled slow down my inner thigh, a visible trail I couldn't hide, couldn't stop.

"Boys, bring her up. Let her rest and be gentle," Mike said to Liam and Steven.

Then he looked at me.

His eyes met mine... storm-gray and heavy, that flicker of unease still there, warring with the flush high on his cheekbones, the way his chest rose and fell like he'd run a mile. The kitchen light caught the sheen on his hand, my slick still glistening on his knuckles, a casual reminder of what he'd just wrung from me. Twice. Over his knee, like a punishment turned prize. His jeans were dark at the thigh, stained from my gush, and the bulge there... god, it hadn't flagged, straining thick against the denim like an accusation I couldn't unsee. Uncomfortable Mike, the one who'd shrugged off the slaps yesterday, who'd scripted these rules in the dead of night. But now? The power had shifted something in him... cracked the shell, let the dark seep through. He didn't apologize. Didn't look away. Just held my gaze, steady and owning, like he'd claimed more than my body in that lap.

"Sarah," he said, voice low and rough, but underlined with command. "You took it well. That's progress."

His hand lifted, almost reaching for my arm... steadying, like after a fall... but dropped back to the table, fingers curling into a fist. The withdrawal stung worse than the swats, a fresh layer of alone in the wreckage.

"Go on. Clean up. Bed."

I nodded... jerky, numb... the gag still half-stuffed in my mouth, a soggy lump I spat into my palm as Liam and Steven hauled me upright. Their hands were gentle now, per his order: Liam's under my elbow, Steven's at my waist, steering me like I might shatter if they pushed too hard. Twisted aftercare... Liam murmuring "Easy, sis" as he scooped my shorts and panties from the floor, dangling them from his pinky like lost laundry. Steven's arm looped loose around my back, palm flat and warm against my bare hip, guiding without groping. No victory laps, no fresh squeezes. Just enough support to keep my knees from bucking, my thighs from sealing shut against the trickle still leaking warm down my skin. Cum... mine, from them... cooling sticky in the air, a scent that clung to everything: My thighs, the carpet, Mike's jeans. I couldn't look down. Couldn't bear the evidence.

The stairs blurred under my feet, their breaths syncing with mine... ragged trio, the house creaking like it knew our secrets. In my room, they deposited me on the bed's edge, gentle as kittens. Liam tossed the clothes beside me, a soft "Night, motivated girl," with a wink that didn't land mean. Then he left the room. Steven lingered longer.

"Should I stay a bit longer or do you want me to leave?" he asked, while looking into my eyes.

Steven lingered in the doorway, his silhouette backlit by the hall's dim glow, casting long shadows across my rumpled bed. His eyes... those sharp, knowing ones that had watched me shatter downstairs... held mine without the usual smirk, just a quiet intensity that made my skin prickle all over again. The room smelled like me: Sweat, tears, and that sharp tang of release still clinging to my thighs, the air heavy with it. I sat there, bare from the waist down, shorts and panties a crumpled accusation beside me, the tank top twisted and damp against my ribs. My ass throbbed in time with my pulse, a deep, radiating burn that made shifting on the mattress send fresh sparks up my spine. And between my legs? Raw, swollen, an ache that bordered on bruise... overused, overstimulated, the ghost of Mike's fingers lingering like a brand inside.

Part of me wanted to scream at him... "Get out, you freak, you did this..." the rebellion flickering hot and familiar, a spark in the ashes. But my voice? Wrecked, throat raw from gagged pleas and muffled screams. And my body... god, it betrayed me even now, a lazy throb low in my belly at the memory of his hand in my hair, the shift from pull to stroke. Tender, almost. Like he cared. Bullshit.

"Leave," I whispered, half plea, half surrender, my eyes dropping to the floorboards scuffed from yesterday's vacuum drag. 

"Just... go."

He didn't move at first, just watched, the silence stretching thin and electric. Then a nod... slow, like he'd expected it... and he stepped closer, boots soft on the carpet. Not crowding, not groping, but close enough I felt the heat off him, the faint soap-and-sweat scent that twisted my gut.

"Alright," he said, voice low, no edge.

His hand lifted... not to my thigh, thank fuck, but to the nightstand, grabbing the box of tissues I'd ignored earlier. He pulled one free, kneeling slow in front of me, eyes still on mine.

"But you're a mess, sis. Let me... clean you up. Dad's orders... gentle, remember?"

I flinched when the tissue brushed my inner thigh... cool, rough against the sticky trail cooling there... but he was careful, dabbing light, wiping away the evidence without lingering. Up the crease, skirting my folds without touching, then a fresh one for the splatters on my knees from the carpet. No words, just that steady gaze, his free hand resting loose on my calf... not squeezing, just there, thumb tracing absent circles on my skin. It should've felt wrong... creepier than the swats, the checks... but in the haze, post-crash endorphins flooding my veins, it landed soft. Almost... nice? Fuck that. My breath hitched anyway, a traitorous shiver running up my leg, nipples tightening under the tank again. Stop it, body. He's not your boyfriend. He's the asshole who filmed you begging.

"Steven..." I started, voice cracking, hand half-reaching to push him away... but it fisted the sheet instead, knuckles white. Rebellion's echo, too tired to roar.

"Shh," he murmured, tossing the soiled tissues in the trash by my desk, grabbing another tissue and wiped away my tears.

"Breathe. You did good down there. Real good."

His words were quiet, laced with that smug undercurrent, but the massage on my calf deepened... thumbs working a knot I hadn't known was there, easing the post-chore ache. Twisted aftercare, yeah, but it worked: The burn faded to a hum, my pulse slowing, the overstretched ache in my core dulling to something bearable. Almost tender, if you ignored the context... the log, the rules, the way he'd dangled my own panties like a toy.

He pulled back after a minute, eyes flicking once to the damp spot on the bed where I'd leaked through the sheets. No comment. Just stood, grabbing my shorts from the pile... holding them open at the ankles, a silent step in. I did, wobbling as he tugged them up my legs, fingers ghosting my thighs without grabbing. The cotton settled loose, a small mercy, hiding the mess but not erasing it. 

"Night, Sarah," he said finally, at the door now, hand on the knob.

That look again... intense, searching, like he saw the crack in me, the way the hate-heat mix was settling deeper.

"Sleep it off. Door's open."

A beat, his smirk flickering back, soft at the edges.

The door clicked shut behind him... soft, final, leaving me alone in the dim glow of my bedside lamp, the house settling into that post-dinner hush that felt more like a held breath. I collapsed back against the pillows, the mattress creaking under me, my body a live bruise: Ass pulsing with every shift, thighs sticky despite his wipe-down, core a hollow throb that echoed the denied edges and the shattering releases like a bad hangover. Two orgasms. Forced, gagged, over Mike's knee with my stepbrothers' hands mapping every slick inch. And I'd thanked them. Begged for it, even... panties in my mouth, tears on my cheeks, hips bucking like some porn star.

"Fuck," I whispered to the ceiling, voice hoarse and cracked, the word tasting like ash.

My hand drifted down... instinct, habit... fingers brushing the waistband of the fresh shorts, the cotton still warm from his touch. Don't. But the ache pulled, insistent, a lazy circle over the damp seam reigniting the ghost of Mike's thumb, Steven's stroke, Liam's tease. Why does it linger like this? The shame should kill it, drown the spark in acid, but it fans it instead... heat blooming low, clit twitching under the pressure. I hated them. Hated the rules, the log, the way Mike's eyes had darkened with that reluctant power, his fingers curling inside me like he owned the fit. Hated how my body arched into it, gushing like a broken faucet, the flood soaking his jeans as if to mark him back. But god... the stretch, the fullness, the way they'd edged me to the brink and held me there, trembling and pleading. It was wrong. Filthy. And mine now, branded deep.

I pulled my hand away, fisting the sheets instead, breath coming in shaky bursts. No more tonight. Not after that. The clock on my nightstand blinked 9:17... late, but sleep? A joke. I grabbed my phone on the pillow.

Anna: Uniform pic? Spill the tea... did the bros "supervise"?

I laughed... bitter, watery, the sound cracking in the quiet. Yeah. If only she knew. 

Fingers hovered over the keys, rebellion flickering: Nightmare. Spanked bare, edged till I begged. Came twice. Kill me.* 

But I deleted it, thumbing a half-truth instead:

Rules suck. Diner uniform = slutty skirt, bare legs. Tips? $5. Creeps everywhere.

Her reply pinged instant: 

Oof, hot mess. Xoxo. Bare legs in that skirt? Bet the truckers creamed. Flirt next time... tips = freedom. Call tomorrow?

I stared at the screen, thumb hovering, the glow blurring through fresh tears. Freedom. Yeah, right. Tips wouldn't buy me out of the log, the rules, the way Mike's fingers had felt... thick, commanding, wringing me dry like I was his to fix. Call tomorrow? What would I even say? 

Hey, Anna, got spanked bare-assed over stepdad's knee tonight. Came gushing while gagged on my own soaked panties. Boys took turns fingering me to the edge, then over. Hot? Or hell? She'd laugh... or worse… would get horny in a twisted excitement, her ENF kink lighting up... but I'd shatter saying it aloud. The mix of hate and heat she loved? It's winning. Eating me alive.

Maybe

I typed back, fingers sluggish.

Diner shift today. Save me from creeps?

No details. Not yet. The phone slipped from my hand, clattering to the nightstand, screen dimming to black. The room spun slow, shadows pooling in the corners like spilled secrets. My body hummed... wrecked, sated in the worst way, every nerve raw from the overload. Ass a bonfire, pussy a tender bruise, thighs sticky where Steven's wipe hadn't reached. I peeled off the tank last, the cotton whispering against my skin like a lover's breath, leaving me bare under the sheets. Cool fabric kissed the handprints, the slick remnants, a small mercy in the chaos.

Sleep clawed in, heavy and inevitable, pulling me under before the guilt could settle full. Dreams fractured: Mike's lap, endless, his thumb circling eternal; the boys' hands, alternating swats and strokes; Vic's office twirl, skirt flaring to the Dawn Patrol's whistles. And woven through... the vid, looping silent: Me, gagged and glistening, begging. *Shorry... pwease...* My hips bucked in the dark, chasing ghosts, a soft whimper escaping as the first tendrils of unconsciousness dragged me down. Exhausted. Broken. But tomorrow? Another chore day. Another shift. Another edge.

The alarm shattered it all at 7:05 AM, blaring like an accusation. I jolted awake, sheets tangled around my legs, one hand fisted between my thighs... fingers damp, caught mid-circle from the dream's bleed.

"Shit," I gasped, yanking free, the throb reigniting sharp and shameful.

Sunlight stabbed through the blinds, harsh on my bare skin, the handprints on my ass a mottled purple in the mirror across the room. Eight demerits yesterday. Two orgasms earned. Progress? Mike's word echoed, twisted and owning.

Downstairs, the kitchen hummed normal... coffee brewing, toast popping, the log closed on the counter like it hadn't scripted my unraveling. Mike at the table, newspaper up, no eye contact as I shuffled in, loose sweats hiding the evidence.

"Morning," he grunted, voice gruff but neutral, like last night was a bad dream. Or a done deal.

Steven and Liam shoveled cereal, smirks buried under casual glances... Liam's foot nudging mine under the table, accidental-on-purpose, his socked toe tracing my ankle.

"Sleep good, sis?" Steven asked, milk dripping from his spoon, eyes flicking to my neck.

"Fine," I lied, grabbing a mug, scalding my tongue on the first sip to bite back the sass. Demerit 1 loomed, fresh and waiting.

Mike looked at me. Steady, appraising, that dark edge softened but there.

"Log's clean so far for today. Keep it that way... evaluation talk Friday. And Sarah? Good work last night. Means you're tryin'."

Praise. From him. It landed wrong... warm in my chest, heat low in my belly... twisting the rebellion into something quieter, hungrier. I nodded, throat tight, fleeing to the door with my bag.

"Yeah. Tryin'. Talk tomorrow, got it."

School dragged like wet cement, every shift in my seat a fresh reminder of last night's bonfire on my ass... the hard plastic chair digging into the tender spots, sending sparks up my spine that pooled low and unwelcome. I crossed my legs tight under the desk, the loose sweats chafing against my still-sensitive thighs, but it didn't help. The throb lingered, a dull echo of Mike's fingers stretching me, the way I'd clenched around them like they were salvation. Focus, Sarah. Trigonometrical equations blurred on the board, the teacher's drone fading to white noise as my mind replayed fragments: The wet schlick of Liam's scissoring, Steven's thumb at my rim, Mike's thumb... god, that final grind on my clit, dragging the second wave out until I blacked out in sobs. Two. I'd cum twice, gushing like a porn clip, tears and thanks slurring around my own filthy gag. And this morning? His praise, casual as coffee. Good work. Like I'd aced a test, not shattered over his lap.

Anna caught me at lunch, sliding onto the bench with her tray of mystery meat, red hair spilling wild over her sundress. Her eyes lit up... sharp, knowing, like she could smell the chaos on me.

"Spill. Diner creeps? Or home rules turning you into Cinderella-slut?"

She nudged my arm, grin wicked, but her gaze flicked to my neck... the faint mark from Steven's grip, blooming purple under my collar. Oops.

I stabbed my fork into the slop, appetite zilch.

"Both. Interview was Vic the Prick... paunchy sleaze, made me twirl in the skirt like a doll. Bare legs, ass barely covered. Tips? Five  bucks from fossils who wanted lap dances with their eggs."

Pictures flashed behind my eyes: Fingers grazing my knee, "Sit a spell, sunshine." I'd iced them hard... rebellion's armor... but Vic's "loosen up" pat on my hip? It echoed the "brief checks" too close, heat creeping up my neck even now.

Anna leaned in, eyes sparkling.

"Twirl? Pics or it didn't happen. And home? Bros supervising chores yet? Bet they 'helped' with the dusting."

Her foot hooked my ankle under the table... playful, but it jolted me, thighs clenching on memory alone. The log's demerits tallied in my head: Eight yesterday, wiped clean by "progress," but today? Fresh slate, or fresh trap.

I swallowed, glancing away... kids laughing at the next table, oblivious.

"Chores were... supervised. Bent over a lot. Inspections."

Vague, but her grin widened, that ENF glint firing. She knew... half from my texts, half from her twisted reads.

"They log it now. Sass = demerits. Hit five? Evening review. Last night..."

Trailed off, fork twisting pasta into knots. Say it? The spanking, the bare spread, the edging till I begged with my panties choking me? The flood, soaking Mike's jeans as I bucked and broke?

Anna's foot squeezed my ankle... gentle pressure, grounding.

"Hit the magic number, huh? Spill the punishment. Spanks? Corner time panty-down? Or..."

Her voice dropped, conspiratorial.

"Something hotter? Like that story I sent... stepdad's lap, fingers deep?"

Heat flooded my face, clit twitching traitor under the sweats.

"Lap. Spanks. Bare after ten. And... checks. During."

The words stuck, but they tumbled anyway... whispered, rushed, like lancing a wound.

"Edged me. All three. Fingers, thumbs... close, then nothing. Till I begged. Gagged myself freely... with my own panties. Came twice. Hard."

Anna's eyes went wide... saucer-big, that twisted sparkle igniting full as she leaned across the table, tray forgotten, her sundress slipping a strap to bare a freckled shoulder. The lunchroom buzzed around us... trays clattering, laughter spiking from the jocks' table... but it faded to static, her gaze pinning me like a butterfly to cork.

"Twice? Gagged on your own panties? Over stepdad's knee?"

She whispered it fierce, like gospel, her foot still hooked on my ankle, squeezing once... playful pressure that shot straight to my core, a fresh throb echoing last night's raw ache.

"Holy shit, Sarah. That's... peak ENF. The begging, the edging, the flood... did you squirt? Like Lea in the story?"

I nodded... jerky, cheeks scorching, fork abandoned in the congealing slop. Saying it aloud cracked something loose: The shame poured out, hot and unfiltered, words tumbling like vomit.

"Yeah. Gushed. Soaked his jeans, the floor... everything. They held my legs spread... Mike's interlocked with mine, couldn't close 'em. Liam teasing my ass, Steven in my hair... Mike's fingers inside, curling, thumb on my clit like he knew every button. Edged me through the swats, then... let it rip. They gave me the choice. Could have just gone to my room. But instead… I begged for the gag myself. 'Sorry for sassing, please forgive me.' Cried the whole time."

My voice cracked on the last, throat tight, but the confession burned clean... lighter, almost, like lancing the boil. Her excitement fed it, twisted mirror to my hate-heat war. Why tell her? Why not bolt, block her number, pretend? Because she got it. The thrill in the terror. The way my pussy clenched replaying it, dampening the sweats even now, thighs pressing together under the table.

Anna bit her lip... hard, eyes glazing with that freaky hunger... her free hand fisting her napkin like it was a lifeline.

"Fuck. That's not just hot, that's you owning it. Or they owning you… But the choice... room or right there, gagging for release? Genius. Your body's screaming what your mouth won't: More."

She scooted closer, voice dropping to a hush, her ankle rubbing mine now... slow circles, innocent if not for the context.

"Admit it: The denial? The build? You hated it... but came harder for the fight. That's the kink. The power flip... you choosing the humiliation. Bet if you leaned in..."

I pulled my ankle free... sharp, rebellion's spark flaring... but her words lodged deep, worming past the shame. Freedom in the flush? Bullshit. Or... was it? The log's clean start today hummed in my head: No demerits yet, Mike's "good work" praise a twisted carrot. Flirt for tips. Comply for weekends. Own the heat, not drown in it.

"Easy for you to say," I muttered, stabbing the pasta again, the tines scraping plastic. "You read this shit for fun. I live it. And the vid? They filmed the first time... gagged confession. I bet they showed Mike last night. Plotted the rules without me. It's a trap, Anna. Not a game."

Anna's laugh bubbled low... throaty, genuine, cutting through the lunchroom din like a secret shared in church. She leaned back, sundress strap slipping further, her eyes never leaving mine, that glint sharpening to something almost feral.

"Trap? Maybe. But traps have doors, Sarah. You built one last night... You chose the gag, the lap, the flood. That's not trapped; that's you opening a door that was closed for a long time."

Her foot found my ankle again... deliberate this time, toe tracing the bone with feather-light pressure that sent a unwelcome zing up my leg, straight to the raw ache between my thighs. I clamped down on the urge to shift, to press, hating how my body perked at the casual tease. 

Easy for her. Stories on a screen, fingers safe under covers. Me? Fingers... real ones, family ones... still ghosting inside, the stretch a phantom itch I couldn't scratch without fresh shame.

"You're twisted," I hissed, but there was no heat in it... more exhale than fire, the rebellion fizzling into tired smoke. Fork scraped plate, pasta cooling untouched.

Anna's words landed like a slap wrapped in silk... soft, stinging, impossible to ignore. She reached across, snagging my wrist... cool fingers on my pulse, which jumped traitor under her hold.

"Hey... lean in. Next shift, sit with those fossils. Let 'em buy the soda, brush your knee. Tips stack, rent clears, and boom: Power flip. You're the tease now."

Her thumb stroked once... deliberate, a mini-check of her own... before releasing, eyes locking mine with that ENF fire.

"And tonight? Touch yourself thinking about it. Own the heat before they do."

I yanked my hand back, heat crawling up my neck, but the spark? It lodged deep, twisting the rebellion into curiosity. 

"You're deranged. But... thanks? For listening. Not judging."

A half-smile, watery at the edges.

"Call after shift? Diner closes late."

"Deal. And Sarah?", she winked, standing fluid, sundress swishing like a dare.

"Send the pic. Skirt up, bare legs. For research."

Her laugh trailed me to the trash, light and filthy, burrowing under my skin like a promise.

The afternoon classes melted into a haze of half-heard lectures and fidgeting thighs, every shift in my seat reigniting the booth's ache, the lap's burn.

The walk to Midnight Brew felt longer in the fading light, September chill nipping at my bare legs under the jeans... armor I'd shed soon enough. The neon buzzed mocking as I pushed through the door, grease and stale coffee hitting like a wall. Vic was behind the counter, barking orders at a dishwasher, his paunch straining the grease-spotted apron.

"Sarah! Back room. Shake a leg."

The office was the same cramped hell: Mirror propped on crates, the uniform draped over a stool like a dare. Blouse low-cut and clingy, skirt a pleated joke that ended mid-thigh. I locked the door... habit from home, pointless here... and stripped quick, jeans pooling at my ankles, tank yanked over my head. I stood there a beat, mirror mocking: Flush-cheeked, thighs marked faint from the spread last night, a ghost bruise blooming where Liam's fingers had pinned. I reached for the blouse...

The door banged open. No knock, no warning... Vic, cigar stub clenched in his teeth, filling the frame like he'd owned the lock all along.

"Forgot to say..."

I yelped, spinning sharp, one arm snapping across my chest to cage my bra-clad breasts, the lace digging into soft flesh. The other hand flew down, palm slapping over my mound, fingers splaying desperate to shield the cotton panel from his stare. Heat exploded in my face, heart slamming ribs... exposed, half-naked in underwear, the mirror behind me throwing my ass into profile, cheeks still faintly pink from the handprints.

"Out! What the fuck...?"

Vic didn't budge, eyes raking slow... chest to crotch to thighs, lingering on the arm-cupped swell of my tits, the way my fingers tented the blue cotton below. Smoke curled from his cigar, the haze thickening the air like complicity. He chuckled low, stepping in full, door swinging shut behind him with a click that echoed too loud.

"You iced my best tippers last time, pocketed eight bucks like it was gold. Tonight? We fix that."

I backed up... ass bumping the desk, the edge biting into my cheeks... arm tightening over my bra, the other hand pressing harder, fingertips brushing my clit through the fabric in a jolt that made me flinch. Rebellion burned: Scream, knee him, bolt. But the job... rent, rules, Mike's grace on the line.

"This is harassment. Get out, or I..."

"Or what? Quit? Walk those pretty legs home empty-handed?"

He stubbed the cigar in a mug on the desk, ash flaking like dirty snow, and closed the gap... close enough his belly brushed my shielding arm, the heat of him suffocating. His hand shot out, palm up, fingers crooked. Expectant. Owning.

"Motivation time. Choose: No panties, or no bra. Keep both? Shift's over before it starts. And if it's the bra... unbutton two more on that blouse. Let the girls breathe... regulars tips double for a peek. You can have it back after the shift."

My breath hitched, the air between us electric and foul... cigar and sweat, his eyes boring into my covered crotch like he could see the damp spot blooming already, traitor body waking to the wrong cue again. No panties? Bare under the skirt, every bend a flash, breeze kissing slick lips. No bra? Tits free, nipples hard against the blouse, two extra buttons popped for cleavage that plunged to my navel. Unfair.

"Fine," I spat, voice cracking despite the steel I tried to lace in. "Bra. No bra."

Better the top... panties at least shielded the core ache, the raw throb from last night's flood. I dropped my shielding arm slow, the bra's straps digging into my shoulders as I reached back, fingers fumbling the clasp. It gave with a soft ping, lace loosening, and I yanked it free... white cotton crumpling in my fist, nipples peaking instant in the cool air, dark and traitorous against my pale skin. The mirror threw it back: C-cups bared, perky from the chill, the faint tan lines from summer a roadmap of vulnerability. Vic's gaze locked there, hungry, his free hand twitching like he itched to grab.

"Good choice, doll."

He held out his palm wider, expectant, and I slapped the bra into it. His fingers closed around it, pocketing it deep in his apron, the bulge obscene.

"Now the blouse... two buttons. Let the boys see what they're tippin' for."

My hands shook as I snatched the blouse from the stool, the thin fabric whispering against my bare back as I shrugged it on. It clung instant, silk-smooth but mocking, nipples shadowing the white like beacons. Button one... navel level, standard plunge. Button two... mid-rib, dipping the neckline lower. The third? I hesitated, fingers hovering, the gap widening to bare the inner curves of my breasts, the valley between shadowed but inviting. Vic's chuckle rumbled, his hand dropping from my chin to my hip... brief, squeezing once through the unbuttoned skirt's waistband.

"That's it. Deeper, Sarah. Earn those tips."

Click. The third button gave, the blouse gaping open to my sternum, tits half-exposed on every breath, the fabric framing them like a gift wrap begging to be torn. I tugged the skirt up next... pleats settling high on my thighs, hem dancing dangerous, panties the only thin barrier to full flash. Bare legs gleamed under the bulb, goosebumps prickling from ankle to hip, the chill kissing higher than it should. Mirror lie: I looked like bait. Slutty uniform, unbuttoned tease, Vic's eyes devouring the view like he'd already won.

"Happy?" I hissed, arms crossing loose over my chest, nipples scraping palms.

"For starters."

He stepped back, door creaking open, the diner's hum spilling in... clatter of plates, low laughs from early birds.

"Shift starts. Flirt. Sit. Or no bra back tonight."

His wink was oil-slick, gone as he barked over his shoulder: "Dawn Patrol's booth three... warm 'em up, doll."

The diner floor was a gauntlet: Tile cool under my sneakers, skirt swishing with every step, bare legs flexing exposed to the AC's bite. Truckers at the counter leered as I passed... eyes dipping to the blouse's plunge, the shadow of nipple peeking on my turn.

"Fresh meat," one muttered, coffee mug pausing mid-sip.

I iced them... order pads slapped down, voice clipped: "What'll it be?" No smile, no sway. Rebellion's armor, thin as the fabric hugging my tits. But Vic watched from the register, arms crossed, that apron-bulge a reminder. *Earn it.*

Booth three loomed like a trap: Four fossils in flannel and faded caps, the Dawn Patrol nursing coffees and eggs-over-easy, their watery eyes lighting up as I approached. The oldest... Hank, name tag pinned crooked on his shirt... grinned first, gaps in his teeth like missing puzzle pieces.

"Well, hello again, sunshine. Legs lookin' longer today. Skirt's a tease... bend over for the salt?"

I slapped the shaker down harder than needed, the clink echoing my pulse. Blouse gaping with every lean, the inner swell of my tits brushing the table's edge, nipples hard points under the thin white. No bra meant every shift pulled the fabric taut, a constant whisper of exposure.

"Salt's there. Coffee refills?" Voice flat, eyes on the notepad... rebellion's shield, thin as the cotton between my thighs. But Vic's stare burned from the counter, apron pocket bulging with my bra like a trophy.

The second one... Beau, beefy with a trucker's gut... chuckled, eyes dipping blatant to my cleavage, the unbuttoned plunge framing my C-cups like an invitation.

"Refills, sure. But sit a spell first, doll. Tell us 'bout yourself. Vic says you're new... fresh outta high school? Bet those legs turned heads."

His boot nudged my sneaker under the table... accidental? Bullshit... heel hooking my ankle, tugging light like a promise.

"Busy shift," I clipped, pouring black from the pot, steam curling up to fog my view of his leer. Steam kissed my exposed skin, the blouse clinging damp to my sternum, nipples shadowing darker.

"Order up?"

Hank's hand shot out... not grabbing, but close: Fingers brushing my wrist as he handed back the menu, rough calluses scraping like sandpaper.

"Pancakes for me. And a side of smile, sweetheart. Loosen up... buy ya a beer on break. Dawn's early, but we start strong."

The others murmured agreement, Beau's boot tugging firmer, pulling my foot half under the booth. Close enough his knee bumped my calf... warm, insistent, denim whispering against my bare skin.

I yanked free, notepad clutched like armor, the pencil digging into my palm.

"No booze on shift. Pancakes coming."

Turned sharp, skirt swishing dangerous, a faint updraft kissing my panty-covered ass. Their laughs chased me to the kitchen... low, rumbling, like thunder promising rain. Vic met me at the pass, eyes on the blush staining my chest above the blouse's gap.

"Iced 'em again? Eight bucks repeat. Sit next time... let 'em warm ya up. Or no bra back."

His thumb tapped the apron pocket, the lace bulge shifting like a threat.

The shift ground on: Plates ferried, refills poured, truckers at the counter slipping fives with winks and "Keep the change, tits." Ten bucks by eight PM... better, but scraps. The Patrol waved me back twice... more coffee, then pie... each time their booth a web tightening. By nine, the diner's thinned, neon buzzing lonely outside, and Hank's voice cut through:

"Break time, sunshine? Booth's open. Soda on us... or somethin' stronger. Loosen that blouse a button more, earn a real tip."

Vic nodded from afar... subtle jerk of his chin, eyes hard. *Earn it.* My feet ached in the sneakers, thighs chafing from the skirt's constant ride-up, panties damp from sweat and that low simmer Anna had named: Heat. I slid into the booth's end... perched, not settled... bare legs folding tight under the table, skirt hiking to mid-thigh.

"Soda. Quick break."

Beau grinned, sliding a foaming mug my way... amber liquid, not cola.

"Beer's quicker. On the house... Vic's nod."

The foam sloshed, heady and bitter as I sipped... rebellion whispering bolt, but thirst won, the cool fizz cutting the grease in my throat. One sip. Two. Their stories tumbled: Road hauls, bad wives, "girls like you" in every diner from here to Reno. Hank's hand landed on the seat beside my hip... not touching, but close, knuckles brushing the pleats.

"Legs for days, doll. Bet they wrap nice."

The beer hit fast... empty mug swapped for a second, Beau's pour generous, foam spilling sticky on the wood.

"Loosen up," he echoed Vic, knee pressing my thigh now... warm denim against bare skin, inching higher with every laugh.

Buzz hummed in my veins, edges softening, the booth's vinyl sticking to my ass through the skirt. Rebellion slurred: Push him off. But the tips? Fives folded on the table already, Hank's fingers "accidental" on my knee as he gestured a tale. Rough, circling slow, calluses scraping up my inner thigh... higher, skirting the hem, thumb dipping under to graze panty lace.

"Soft," he murmured, voice gravel, the others leaning in, eyes on the show under the tablecloth's drape.

"Stop," I mumbled, but it came breathy... beer's fault, or the heat pooling where his thumb pressed firmer, outlining my lips through the cotton.

The third mug appeared... half-gone before I clocked the burn, stronger than beer, something spiked sweet under the fizz. World tilted warm, giggles bubbling unbidden as Beau's hand joined... opposite thigh, spreading me subtle, knees parting inch by inch under their dual siege.

"That's it, sunshine. Good girl."

Hank's thumb circled my clit through the fabric... slow, deliberate, the pressure sparking white behind my eyes. I bucked... subtle, denied gasp swallowed by the diner's hum... but his free hand clamped my wrist under the table, pinning it to my lap.

"Shh. Tips for quiet."

The booth's vinyl creaked under me, sticky with spilled foam and sweat, the world tilting in a boozy haze that blurred the diner's edges into soft, forgiving smears. The third mug... spiked, I knew it now, the sweet burn lingering on my tongue like a lie... had hit like a freight train, turning my limbs heavy, my thoughts syrupy. Hank's thumb worked relentless circles over my clit through the damp cotton, pressure building in lazy loops that sparked and sizzled, my hips twitching subtle under the tablecloth's merciful drape. Beau's knee pinned my left thigh wide, his hand higher now... fingers tracing the crease where leg met hip, dipping under the skirt's hem to toy with the panty waistband, tugging light like a threat. The other two... Gramps and Tex, I'd dubbed them in my buzzed brain... leaned in casual, forking pie, but their eyes flicked down, hungry for the show they couldn't see but knew was playing.

"Easy, sunshine," Hank murmured, voice gravel and gin, his free hand sliding a crisp twenty across the table... tucked under my notepad like a bribe. "Quiet girls get the big tips. Show us somethin' pretty?"

His thumb flicked sharper... once, twice... against the swollen nub, the friction ripping a gasp from my throat, muffled quick behind my palm. God, the heat coiled fast, low and vicious, my pussy clenching around nothing, slick soaking the cotton further. Rebellion screamed faint... Push the hand away, bolt for the door... but the beer dulled it to a whine, drowned by the throb, the promise of cash stacking for rent grace.

"Like what?" I slurred, voice breathy and wrong, legs parting another inch under their dual siege, the skirt bunching high enough the cool booth air kissed my inner thighs.

Beau's chuckle rumbled, his fingers hooking the panty edge now... tugging aside just enough to bare a sliver of slick lips to his touch, the rough pad of his index grazing my entrance.

"Bra, doll. Flash those tits... bet they're perky under that blouse. Vic won't mind; we tip loyal."

His finger dipped shallow... teasing the rim, not plunging, but circling wet and insistent, syncing with Hank's clit torture. The dual assault short-circuited me: Sparks lancing up my spine, nipples diamond-hard against the blouse's cling, the unbuttoned plunge gaping wider with every heave. No bra. The lie burned my cheeks hotter than the building peak, but saying it? Admission meant more... worse.

I shook my head... weak, hips bucking subtle into their hands, chasing the friction despite the sob clawing my throat.

"C-can't... no bra."

The words tumbled, slurred confession, the booth spinning as Hank's thumb ground firmer, Beau's finger pressing deeper... half-knuckle now, curling against that spongy spot inside that made stars burst. Wet schlick echoed faint under the table, drowned by the diner's clatter, but I heard it... obscene, damning.

"Pwease... tips...", I slurred.

Their laughs blended low, a chorus of gravel and triumph, Gramps sliding another ten across... folded tight, like a secret.

"No bra? Even better. Pop another button, sunshine. Let us see what we're payin' for."

Hank's free hand joined under the cloth... palming my thigh full, spreading me wider for Beau's shallow thrusts, two fingers now scissoring light, stretching the slick heat without mercy. The stretch burned sweet, my walls fluttering greedy, the coil snapping taut as Tex's boot nudged my other calf... pinning, holding the spread. Exposed. Theirs. The blouse strained with my gasp, the third button straining, fourth hovering under my trembling fingers.

Click. The fourth gave, fabric parting to bare the full swell of my tits... nipples peeking free, dark and peaked in the booth's dim, the valley between them shadowed but open. Hank's eyes lit, thumb rewarding with a grind that bucked me forward, coffee mugs rattling.

"Fuck, look at those. Perky little sluts."

Beau's hand grabbed my tit and started to knead them like doe... No more tease... just build, brutal and fast, my pussy clenching around Hanks finger, slick flooding as the wave crested. Beau found my nipple and began to pinch and twist them. Rolled them between his thumb and index that let my back arche against it.

"Shh... cum quiet, doll. Earn it."

I bit my lip... hard... but the moan tore free anyway, muffled into my sleeve as the orgasm ripped through. Waves crashed, vicious and silent, walls spasming around Hank's plunging fingers, clit pulsing under their thumbs' grind. Gush hit... hot, slick, soaking their knuckles, trickling down to stain the booth seat. My thighs quaked, locked spread by boots and hands, tits heaving half-bared in the gaping blouse, nipples grazing the table's edge with every heave. Shame burned hotter than the pleasure... cumming in a booth for fossils' fingers, tips folded like payment for my flood. Tears pricked, hot and futile, but my hips rolled through it, chasing every curl, every grind, the peak dragging long and mean in the boozy haze.

Hank milked it slow... fingers easing to shallow strokes, thumbs circling lazy through the aftershocks, drawing whimpers I couldn't stifle. Beau let go of my tits.

"Sweet as pie, sunshine. Forty bucks says you sit again tomorrow."

Hank pulled free last, a wet pop swallowed by my gasp, his hand surfacing to slap another twenty on the stack... crumpled, earned.

I bolted upright... skirt bunching, blouse gaping... as the wave ebbed, thighs trembling, the sticky mess cooling between my legs.

"B-break's over," I slurred, snatching the bills with shaking hands, stuffing them deep in the apron pocket.

Their laughs chased me to the kitchen, low and sated, Vic's nod from the counter a silent approval. Forty bucks. Rent closer. But the ache? Deeper now, raw and wanting, panties sodden and clinging like a second shame.

The shift dragged to close... three AM, muscles screaming, thighs chafing slick under the skirt. Vic counted the drawer in the office, cigar relit, eyes on the blouse's disarray... buttons strained, tits still shadowed but marked by the booth's rub.

"Better haul... forty from them? Sat down this time, huh? Good girl."

He dangled my bra from his pinky... lace twisted, mocking.

"Earned it back. But next time? No panties and bra. Loosen full."

His hand brushed my hip... brief, echoing home... before shoving me out the door, the forty burning in my pocket like stolen fire.

The walk home blurred... September chill biting my bare legs, skirt swishing traitor with every step, the damp cotton wedging deeper, chafing the swollen lips. Cum... mine, from their fingers... trickled slow, cooling sticky down my thigh, a secret trail I couldn't wipe clean. House dark, Mike's light off, the log closed innocent on the counter. Work day... no chores, no review. Just bed, and the ghost hands replaying: Booth spread, fingers curling, the flood I'd earned. Forty bucks. Progress? I peeled off in the bathroom... skirt pooling, panties peeled like a skin, the mirror throwing back the evidence: Blouse gaping, tits marked faint red from table rub, thighs glistening slick to knee. No demerit for this... no log for Vic's "motivation," the fossils' tips. But the heat? It logged itself, coiling fresh in my belly as I rinsed the mess, fingers lingering too long on the ache.

Bed claimed me hard... sheets cool mercy on fevered skin, dreams fracturing into booth and lap, fingers blending: Beau's scissor, Mike's curl, Hank's grind. I woke damp-fingered again, alarm blaring 7:05, the forty crumpled under my pillow like a dirty promise. Friday... chore day, log clean so far. Rent talk tonight. But the mirror lied no more: I looked owned. And wanting.

The forty bucks burned a hole in my pocket all through school Friday... crumpled twenties and fives, sticky from the booth's spilled foam and god-knows-what-else, a filthy trophy I couldn't spend without remembering Hank's thumb grinding my clit to that silent, gushing shatter. Forty. Enough for half the rent if I stretched it, Mike's "grace talk" tonight a dangling maybe. But every crinkle in my jeans echoed the wet schlick of Hanks fingers scissoring inside me, the way I'd bucked into their hands like a bitch in heat, tits half-bared and heaving for their folded bribes. 

Slut.

Vic's word, casual as a coffee order, but it stuck... gouging deeper than the handprints still mottling my ass, a bruise I'd hidden under loose sweats all day. 

What am I becoming? The girl who iced creeps last shift? 

Or the one who spread her thighs for tips, cumming quiet while fossils laughed?

I hated her. Hated the throb that woke me damp-fingered again, clit aching for a touch I denied with gritted teeth. Hated how Anna's "own it" pep talk looped in my head, twisting survival into something dirtier, like I chose the flood. 

No. Fuck that.

Today... chore day, log clean so far... I'd fight. Sass the supervision, shove their hands away, starve the heat till it choked. Reclaim something. Anything.

The afternoon crawled... classes a blur of half-notes and clenched thighs, every shift in my seat reigniting the booth's ache, the lap's burn. By three, I was home, door slamming behind me like a declaration.

Mike was at the table when I shuffled in after the bell, newspaper folded, coffee steaming like yesterday's truce. 

"Hi Sarah," Mike grunted, not looking up, but his gaze snagged on my sweats... loose, hiding the evidence... before dropping back to his mug.

Steven's spoon paused mid-air, milk dripping.

"Attitude already? Log's callin'."

I shot him a glare... sharp, unfiltered... grabbing toast without butter, the dry bite sticking in my throat.

"Not attitude. Fact. I'm working the diner, scraping tips from creeps so I don't end up bunking with you two pervs. That's progress."

The words flew hot, rebellion uncoiling like a spring... hate for the booth, the lap, the way my body had betrayed me twice over, gushing for their control. Liam's eyes widened, pen twitching toward the log, but I leaned in, voice dropping venom.

"Log that. See if I care."

"Demerit 1," Liam scribbled, quick and smug: 14:45 PM: Sassy behavior.

Mike's mug hit the saucer... clink loud in the hush... his jaw tightening, that conflicted storm in his eyes flickering dark.

"Enough. Eat. Then uniform... tank and shorts. Clean log and you have nothing to fear."

No heat in his tone, just command... paternal steel laced with last night's gravel, the memory of his cock straining against my hip unspoken but there, heavy as the bulge in his sweats. I nodded... jerky, throat tight... and bolted, toast abandoned, the forty crinkling like accusation in my pocket.

Uniform first: Tank clinging to my chest... nipples shadowing faint from the chill... the tight shorts riding high on my bare legs, hem barely covering the crease of my ass. Mirror lied: I looked defiant. Ready to fight the heat, the hands, the want. Kitchen first... counters gleaming already, but I scrubbed anyway, sponge grinding tile like it owed me blood. Steven "supervised," lounging on the stool, legs spread casual, that bulge in his shorts not subtle.

"Missed the sink edge, sis. Bend over... get it proper."

I did... slow, deliberate, ass flexing under the shorts as I leaned, the fabric pulling taut across my cheeks.

Rebellion thrummed: Let him look. Stare all he wants.

But no reaction. No heat. His hand landed anyway... palm flat on my thigh, sliding up slow, thumb brushing the hem.

"Check time. Rule 1... compliance gauge."

The touch sparked... electric, unwanted... my skin prickling, clit twitching despite the clamp-down. 

No. Fight it. 

I jerked straight, sponge dripping suds down my arm, his hand falling free with a wet slap.

"Don't. I'm cleaning. Back off."

Voice sharp, laced with venom... the hate for the booth's fingers, the lap's curl, spilling over onto him. Him and his log, his vid, his gentle wipe-down that'd left me wanting more.

Steven's grin faltered... surprise flickering... before hardening, pen out.

"Demerit 2: Resistance to inspection. 3:15 PM."

He leaned closer, voice low.

"Pushin' hard today, huh? What crawled up your ass?"

"You. All of you."

I slammed the sponge down, suds splashing his shorts... accidental-on-purpose, rebellion's petty win. Water darkened the fabric, outlining him clearer, but I didn't look away... glared instead, heat coiling traitor low despite the fire in my chest.

"Logging my 'arousal' like some science project? Filming me gagged and begging? It's sick. I'm not your toy."

The words poured... raw, unchecked... the self-hate twisting out: For cumming in the booth, for shattering over Mike's knee, for waking slick and circling my clit to the memory. Hated her. The slut who'd spread for fossils' fingers, gushed over stepdad's knee, woken circling her clit to the memory.

"Touch me again, and I'll scream it to the neighbors."

Liam poked his head in then... drawn by the splash?... notebook in hand.

"Heard that. Demerit 3: Threat. 4: Sass overload."

His eyes dipped to my tank, nipples peaked from the chill and the rush, but I crossed my arms... shielding, defiant... thighs clenching against the throb building unbidden.

"Boys' room next. Hour's ticking."

The room was a relapse: Stale musk hitting like a slap, beds unmade, tissues lurking under like landmines. I dropped to knees without prompt... carpet biting through the shorts, ass up as I crawled for the dust under Liam's bed. *Fight the want. Ignore the exposure, the way the hem rode high, cool air kissing the panty crease.* Steven knelt behind... supervise, my ass... his hand "guiding" my hip, fingers digging bruises.

"Arch more. Easier reach."

I bucked back... sharp, shoving his hand off, the motion wedging my shorts deeper, clit grinding cotton in a spark I bit back.

"Reach yourself. I'm not bending for your show."

Voice cracked on the edge... hate for the heat, the way my pussy clenched at the shove, slick blooming fresh. Liam laughed from the bed.

"Demerit 4: Resistance during duty. 5: Backtalk."

Pen scratched furious, the tally climbing like a death march.

By Steven's bed... tissues again, crusty and mocking... I snapped full: Reaching for one, sticky drag on my fingers, the smell sharp and personal.

"You jerks can't even..."

Hand slipped... deliberate?... smearing the mess across the carpet, a gray streak of rebellion.

"Oops. Clean it yourself."

Steven's hand cracked down... not check, swat... sting blooming hot through the shorts.

"Demerit 6: Intentional slack. That's it... shorts off. Rule escalation for resistance."

He hooked the waistband, yanking down to mid-thigh, panties bared... blue cotton, damp seam glaring. Cool air hit, my ass clenching exposed, the faint handprint from last night shadowing pink. I twisted... fighting the pull, kicking out.

"Fuck you! Demerit me all you want... I'm done playing."

Liam's pen flew: 7: Assault on supervisor. 8: resistance to supervising.

Steven pinned my wrists... rough now, no gentle... ass up and spread as he "checked" hard: Palm cupping full, fingers pressing my slit through the lace, grinding once.

"Wet anyway. Log it... demerit 9: Arousal denial."

The pressure sparked... vicious, the coil winding despite my thrash... and I bucked wild, knee connecting his thigh.

"10: Continued resistance."

Ten. The magic number hit like a bomb, the hour barely half-gone. Living room vacuum blurred into fury: Cord tangled deliberate, vacuum tipped "accidental," sass spilling with every push...

"This is bullshit! Log your own pervy asses!" 

By end, the room gleamed through my rage, but the log? Bloated: Ten demerits, scrawled furious... 

sass x4, resistance x3, slack x2, arousal "progress" x1. 

I stormed to my room... shorts yanked up, door slamming... collapsing in a sob, fists pounding the mattress. Hated her. The fighter who'd racked the tally, the slut who'd dampened anyway, clit throbbing denied under the cotton. 

What now? Evening review. Worse than last night. And I'd earned it... fought the want, lost to the heat.

Dinner was a minefield: Pasta steaming innocent, but the air crackled... Mike's eyes on me heavy, boys' smirks buried under forks. I picked at my plate, thighs clenched under the table, the damp seam chafing a constant whisper. Ten. Evaluation threshold smashed.

What hell now? Topless chores? Their "edging" full-force? The vid's ghost hung... my gagged beg, Mike's fingers milking me dry... twisting my gut with fresh hate. For craving it again, despite the fight.

Plates cleared, Mike pulled the log close... pages rustled like judgment day. The kitchen light buzzed overhead, casting harsh shadows on the table, turning the notebook into some ancient tome of sins. My fork lay abandoned in the congealing pasta sauce, appetite long fled, replaced by a knot of dread twisting tighter with every flip of the page. Ten demerits. I'd fought like hell... shoved hands away, smeared their mess, kicked out at Steven's shin like a wild thing... but it hadn't mattered. The heat had bloomed anyway, slicking my panties under the shorts, my clit throbbing denied even as I'd spat venom. Now? The tally stared back, scrawled in their smug hands: Sass x4, resistance x3, slack x2, and that one twisted "Arousal confirmed: Progress despite fight." Like my body's betrayal was a win for them.

Mike's finger traced the lines slow, deliberate, his jaw working like he chewed on more than silence. The boys shifted... Steven's foot nudging Liam's under the table, a silent high-five in the tension. Finally, Mike exhaled, setting the pen down with a soft clack that echoed too loud.

"Ten. Double yesterday's haul."

His voice was gravel, edged with that reluctant steel from last night... the one that'd curled his fingers inside me, wringing sobs and floods like it was duty. His eyes lifted to mine, steady and appraising, flicking once to the faint flush creeping up my neck, the way my thighs pressed tight under the table. Uncomfortable Mike, yeah... jaw tight, a flicker of unease in the storm-gray depths... but the power? It simmered there now, owned the room like his lap had owned me.

"Boys say you were fire today. Rebellious as hell. Kicking, sassing, smearing shit on purpose. Why, Sarah? What's eating you?"

I froze, fork forgotten, heat crawling up my chest to stain the tank's collar. *Why?* The word hung, simple and slicing, peeling back the armor I'd scraped together all day. Rebellion's embers... fight the hands, starve the want... fizzled under his gaze, leaving me raw, exposed in a way the bare-ass swats hadn't touched. Steven leaned forward, elbows on the table, that smirk curling lazy.

"Yeah, sis. Bent over snarling like we were the enemy. But your pussy didn't lie... wet as the vid, even kicking me. What's the beef? Miss the motivation already?"

Liam snickered, pen tapping the log like a gavel, but Mike shot them a look... sharp, silencing... his hand flat on the page, holding the judgment.

My throat tightened, words jamming like dry toast. 

Say nothing. Stonewall.

Let them log the silence as demerit 11, face whatever hell came without giving them more. But his eyes... stormy, waiting, that paternal flicker warring with the dark... pulled anyway, like last night's "good girl" rasped over my pleas. I swallowed hard, thighs clenching tighter, the damp seam chafing a fresh reminder of the fight's failure.

"It's... nothing."

Lame, voice cracking on the lie, my fingers twisting the napkin into shreds under the table.

"Just tired. Diner shift was shit... creeps groping for tips, Vic making me... choose."

The booth flashed: Fingers plunging, gush soaking vinyl, forty bucks earned in shame. Heat licked low, traitor, but I clamped it, fists balling.

"Log it as 'tired.' End of story."

Mike didn't blink, just waited... patient, heavy, the air thickening with the unspoken: The vid, the lap, the way I'd chosen the gag and bucked into the flood. Steven opened his mouth... smirk widening... but Mike's hand shot up, palm out, silencing him cold.

"Not them. You. Talk, Sarah. Or we skip straight to consequences... Chores from now on naked, edging full through chores. Deny every orgasm. Also those when we aren't around. Your call."

The threat landed soft, but it stuck... topless, bare tits bouncing under their stares, fingers teasing to the brink without mercy. *

No. Fuck that.

The napkin shredded finer, my breath coming short, the confession clawing up unbidden: Not just the diner, the creeps, the tips. Me. The slut who'd spread for fossils' fingers, gushed over stepdad's knee, woken circling her clit to the memory. Afraid. Of her.

Tears pricked hot... stupid, stinging... and I blinked them back, throat working.

"Fine. You want why?"

Voice pitched low, raw, the words tumbling like vomit once the dam cracked.

"I'm scared, okay? Of this... of me. What I'm turning into."

My hands fisted the table's edge, knuckles white, the log blurring through the haze.

"The rules, the logs, the... checks. I fight it... hate it, kick and sass and scream inside... but my body? It... wants. Gets wet from the slaps, the hands, the way you all watch like I owe it. That night? I chose the gag. Begged for it. Came gushing like some... slut who loves it. And yesterday? Diner creeps fingering me under the table for tips, and I let it... spread, came quiet for the cash. Forty bucks, Mike. Earned it bucking into their hands."

The sob broke free then... choked, wet... tears spilling hot down my cheeks, splashing the table like accusations.

"I'm afraid of what I need now. The heat. The humiliation. It's winning, and I don't know how to stop it without losing everything... the room, the rent, me."

Silence crashed in, thick and suffocating, the boys frozen... Steven's smirk wiped clean, Liam's pen hovering mid-air like he'd forgotten how to write. Mike just... listened. No grunt, no shutdown, no "good girl" praise laced with power. His eyes held mine... storm-gray softening at the edges, that conflicted flicker deepening to something almost human, understanding. He nodded... slow, deliberate, the motion cracking the room's tension like ice underfoot. No judgment. No log scratch. Just a tilt of his head, jaw unclenching as he leaned back, the chair creaking under him.

"Scared, huh?"

Voice rough, but gentle at the frayed edges... like the aftercare pat on my back last night, paternal steel bending just enough.

"Fair. This... it's a lot. Rules to keep the house afloat, but yeah... stirs shit up. Inside."

His hand scrubbed his face, a rare crack in the armor, eyes flicking to the boys... warning, then back to me, heavy with the weight of last night's whiskey plot.

"Body's got a mind, Sarah. Mine too, sometimes. But fear? That's honest."

I blinked... stunned, tears slowing to a drip, the knot in my chest loosening a fraction under that nod. 

"Honest."

He'd logged my sass, my resistance, my slick "progress"... but this? The raw spill of fear, desires twisting like knives? It landed different. No demerit. No edge. Just... understanding. From him. The man whose fingers had wrung me dry, whose lap had branded me. Heat flickered low... not the traitor throb, but something warmer, tangled.

"Yeah," I whispered, voice small, wiping my cheeks with the back of my hand. "But I don't know if I like it or if I should hate it. But please, no naked chores, please no edging through the chores…"

I exhale sharp, my voice only a whisper.

"And please don't forbid me to cum… I need that."

Mike's nod deepened... once more, firm... and he pulled the log closer, pen tapping once, deliberate.

"Then we adjust. Ten demerits means escalation... Rule 5 kicks in. Stricter setup, to match the fight."

He flipped to a fresh page, scribbling quick, the scratch loud in the hush. The boys leaned in... eager, but hushed under his gaze... Steven's smirk muted, Liam's pen still.

"New uniform for chores: Thong and crop top, no bra underneath. Bare minimum... But not naked."

Heat flushed fresh... thong wedging deep, crop top baring midriff and underboob, tits free to bounce under their stares. Not naked at least. I swallowed, thighs clenching, but he wasn't done.

"And permissions: Cum or pee? You ask. Alone? Text the group. School, work... same. Keeps the discipline honest, no sneaking. But you still can have an orgasm if you want that. You just need now our approval before."

The words landed heavy... permission for basics, my body's functions logged and leashed.

A text mid-class: May I pee?

 Or worse, post-diner shift, buzzed and aching: Permission to cum?

My breath hitched, the rules sinking like lead... thong riding slick during chores, crop top teasing nipples hard, every release a begged favor. At least no naked chores or suffering for days or even weeks without release. But stil...

"Everywhere?" Voice cracked, small.

Mike's eyes held... steady, no flinch.

"Everywhere. Builds control. At home when we someone is around direct. Unless you will have to text us."

A beat, then softer: 

"But honesty like that? Earns grace. Understand what's stirrin' inside... desires, needs, the fear of 'em. So tonight? No standard punishment. You pick. Ten demerits' worth. Last time it was eighteen demerits' so... But it's your call. Make it count."

The room stilled... air thick, expectant... the boys' eyes widening, Steven's smirk flickering back tentative, Liam's pen forgotten. My call. Punishment on my terms? The lap's echo thrummed... bare, spread, fingers curling to the brink... but twisted now: Choose the edge, own the heat, fight the fear with a flood I scripted. Rebellion sparked... make it nothing, corner time clothed, starve the want. Or... lean in. Anna's echo: Power flip. Thong, crop top, permissions, but tonight? 

Me directing the denial, the build, the shatter. Scared of her. The slut. But maybe... face her.

The choice dangled like a live wire... my punishment, on my terms, ten demerits' worth of whatever hell I'd scripted. The kitchen clock ticked mocking in the hush, seconds stretching thin as the boys' eyes bored into me: Steven's intense and waiting, like he'd scripted a dozen options in his head; Liam's wide and gleaming, pen hovering over the log like it itched to tally my pick. 

Mike just... sat there, steady as the table under his elbows, that nod still echoing in my chest... understanding, raw and unearned, cracking the fear wide enough to breathe. 

Afraid of her.

The slut who'd begged the gag, spread for fossils' fingers, gushed over family laps like it was oxygen. 

But choosing now? Facing her head-on, scripting the edge myself? It felt like a flip... power in the plummet, Anna's twisted gospel made flesh. Or suicide. Either way, the heat coiled low, traitor pulse between my thighs, slick whispering against the cotton despite the day's failed fight.

I swallowed... throat dry as ash, tears drying sticky on my cheeks... and met Mike's gaze, holding it this time, no flinch. Rebellion's ember flickered: Make it nothing. Corner time clothed, hands off, starve the wall till it whimpered. 

But that? Cop-out. Surrender to the fear, not the her. No. Own it. Script the humiliation, direct the denial, let the flood come on my cue.

"Over your lap again," I rasped, voice cracking but steady, the words tumbling deliberate once the dam gave. "Like that night. Twenty swats... bare from the start. I say thank you after each swat to one of you. Also counting each one. And the checks? Fingers inside, thumb on my clit... edge me through each one, but no cumming till the last. Till I beg. And..."

I swallowed hard.

"I... I gag myself from the start with my panties."

The words hung in the air like a verdict I'd just pronounced on myself... raw, irrevocable, the kitchen's hum the only sound breaking the stunned hush. Twenty swats. Bare from the start. Thank you and counts to them, one by one. Fingers inside, edging merciless through each crack, no release till the end, till I shattered begging around my own gag. 

My choice. My script. The power flip Anna preached, twisted into a noose I tied myself. Mike's eyes held mine... storm-gray widening a fraction, that conflicted flicker deepening to something almost reverent, like I'd handed him the keys to a door he'd only cracked last night. 

The boys? Steven's smirk bloomed slow, triumphant but edged with awe, his fingers drumming the table once, twice, like he itched to start the tally. Liam's pen scratched frantic... not a demerit, but a note: 

"Self-punishment: 20 swats, edged, gagged voluntary. Progress x10." Voluntary. Like that made it less filthy. Less me.

My throat worked... dry, burning... as I stood, chair scraping back like a starting gun. Legs trembled under the table, thighs clenching against the fresh slick blooming traitor between them, the cotton seam wedging deeper with every shift. Fear clawed up my chest: Of her, the slut scripting her own unraveling, choosing the humiliation because fighting it left me wetter anyway. 

But rebellion? It lingered in the edges... the glare I shot Steven as I hooked my thumbs in the shorts' waistband, the slow peel down my legs, baring the blue cotton clinging damp to my mound. Panties next... cotton sodden at the crotch, the dark patch glaring like evidence as I stepped free. Bare now, from the waist down, the kitchen air cool and damning on my exposed pussy... lips puffy from the day's denied throb, a bead of slick already trailing down my inner thigh. Their eyes raked: Mike's heavy, owning; boys' hungry, waiting. I met none... stared at the floor instead, rebellion's last stand in the flush staining my chest above the tank's hem.

The panties dangled from my fingers... heavy, intimate, the scent wafting up sharp and personal as I brought them to my lips. No Liam taunting this time, no yank-away game. Just me, folding the wad deliberate, the damp cotton pressing cool against my mouth before I parted my lips and stuffed it deep. It bulged my cheek instant, the salty tang flooding my tongue... bitter, musky, a cocktail of sweat and arousal from the booth's echo, the lap's flood. Gag reflex hit, throat convulsing, but I swallowed it down, the fabric muffling my sob into a pathetic hum.

"Mmmph."

Sorry? No... defiant, eyes lifting to Mike's now, holding as I draped slow over his lap. Belly to thigh, the denim rough under me like last night, his cock already stirring thick against my hip... a hot promise I felt twitch as my bare ass settled high, cheeks clenching exposed under the light. Legs dangled, spread subtle by the chair's width, pussy splayed open to the air, lips parting slick and vulnerable. His hand settled on my back... steadying, heavy, fingers splaying wide to pin me in place.

"Shtart," I mumbled around the gag, the word garbled and wet, saliva dribbling down my chin to stain the tank. 

Mike's exhale was ragged... conflict warring in the hitch, but his hand lifted, palm broad and unyielding, cracking down first on the right cheek. Sting bloomed nuclear, radiating heat that licked straight to my core, my clit throbbing in response.

"Mmmph-wun," I slurred, hips bucking forward into his thigh, the friction grinding my mound against denim. "Fank oo."

Steven next... his swat lighter but stingier, aimed low at the crease, the impact rippling to part my lips further, cool air kissing the slick valley. His fingers followed seamless... no pause, no mercy... two plunging deep, curling against that spongy spot inside as his thumb found my clit, circling lazy but firm. The stretch burned sweet, walls clenching greedy around the invasion, the coil winding vicious from the first touch.

"Mmmph-too. Fank oo, Sheven."

Voice cracked muffled, tears pricking as the edge built fast... too fast... my hips rolling subtle, chasing the curl despite the sob bubbling around the gag.

Liam's turn... eager, boyish, the swat cracking high on the left, jolting me forward into Mike's stirring cock, the ridge nudging my hip like a brand. His "check" was messier... fingers scissoring wide inside, stretching me fuller, thumb flicking my clit sharp and erratic, syncing with the throb from the sting. Wet schlick echoed faint, obscene in the hush, my pussy fluttering helpless as the peak hovered cruel, just out of reach.

"Mmmph-free. Fank oo, Wiam."

The denial hit like a slap... his fingers dragging free slow, a final curl that left me spasming around air, clit pulsing denied under the ghost of his thumb. Whimper tore muffled from the gag, hips twitching empty, the fabric in my mouth soaking fuller with saliva and tears. Mike's hand on my back pressed firmer... anchoring, almost soothing... as Steven took four: Swat centered, palm cupping the heat after, fingers plunging knuckle-deep, thumb grinding circles that wound me tighter, the build a vicious loop of sting and stretch.

"Mmmph-for. Fank oo."

Edge sharpened... brutal, my thighs quaking, slick dripping now to stain his jeans anew, but no shatter. Not yet.

The rhythm blurred into torment: Swats alternating... crack, bloom, fingers plunging, thumbs circling, edging relentless through the count. Five: Liam again, his swat off-center, stinging the undercurve where thigh met ass, his fingers teasing my rim alongside the plunge... light presses at the tight ring, not breaching but syncing with the curl inside, dual violation that made my toes curl and vision haze.

"Mmmph-fife. Fank oo."

Six: Steven, swat high near my tailbone, fingers splaying my cheeks wider for the view, plunging deep while his thumb flicked my clit erratic, the denial dragging a muffled sob as he pulled free mid-build.

"Mmmph-shix. Fank oo."

Seven: Mike... heaviest yet, palm broad and paternal, cracking dead center with a thud that echoed off the cabinets, his fingers after filling me full... three thick digits scissoring slow, thumb rubbing firm circles that pushed me to the brink, the coil snapping taut, orgasm hovering vicious.

"Mmmph-shiven. Fank oo, Mike."

But he withdrew... wet pop, fingers trailing slick down my thigh... leaving me hollow, spasming, tears soaking the gag as I bucked into empty air.

Eight blurred into nine... Steven's swat playful but mean, fingers tracing my asshole full now, pressing the rim while plunging front, the double tease short-circuiting my nerves; Liam's eager crack followed by scissoring wide, thumb on clit grinding till I mewled muffled, hips rolling desperate.

"Mmmph-eight... fank oo. Mmmph-nine... fank oo."

The edge frayed me raw... each denial a fresh agony, my pussy a throbbing mess, lips swollen and dripping, the flood teasing but held back by their script. My script. Ten: Mike again, swat firm and owning, fingers curling deep against that spot, thumb flicking precise... building the wave higher, meaner, my body arching bowstring over his lap, tits heaving under the tank, nipples scraping cotton like fire.

"Mmmph-ten. Fank oo."

Denial crashed... fingers yanking free, thumb lifting... leaving me sobbing into the gag, walls clenching frantic around nothing, slick gushing untouched down his thigh.

The second ten dragged eternal... swats blending into a bonfire on my ass, cheeks throbbing mottled red under their palms, the stings radiating to feed the coil without mercy. Eleven: Liam, swat low and sloppy, fingers plunging with a twist that scraped my walls, thumb circling lazy through the slick; twelve: Steven, crack high and stingy, his plunge shallower but faster, thumb flicking erratic to spike the edge; thirteen: Mike, heavy thud that jolted me forward into his cock... now steel-hard, twitching against my hip... his fingers filling and curling deliberate, thumb grinding circles that had me thrashing, the peak cresting brutal, just shy.

"Mmmph... fank oo."

Each count slurred wetter, the gag sodden and choking, saliva dribbling down my chin to pool on his jeans, mixing with the slick from my untouched drip. Fourteen, fifteen... boys alternating, their teases bolder: Liam's rim press syncing with the plunge, Steven's free hand splaying my cheeks for the view, the exposure burning hotter than the swats. Sixteen: Mike's swat centered, fingers scissoring wide, thumb on clit rubbing firm... pushing me over the brink, but pulling at the last gasp, denial ripping a wail muffled into static.

"Mmmph-shixteen... pwease..."

Seventeen blurred eighteen... Steven's playful crack followed by a plunge that hooked deep, thumb grinding vicious; Liam's eager swat jolting my tits free from the tank's hem, nipples grazing his thigh as his fingers scissored, the exposure a fresh humiliation that coiled the heat tighter. Tears streamed unchecked now, soaking the gag, my voice a wrecked hum around the fabric:

"Mmmph... fank oo."

Nineteen: Mike, swat paternal but punishing, fingers filling full... three thick, curling relentless against the spot, thumb flicking precise circles that wound me to shattering, the wave crashing imminent, my hips bucking wild into his hand, pussy clenching greedy, slick flooding his palm. But denial... yank free, thumb lifting... left me convulsing empty, a sob tearing raw from the gag, body arching desperate over his lap.

"Twenty," I slurred... begging now, the word fracturing around the soaked wad, tears and saliva mingling on my chin.

Mike's swat landed final... heavy, owning, the crack echoing like absolution... his fingers plunging instant, no tease, filling deep and curling vicious, thumb grinding my clit in firm, unyielding circles.

"Mmmph-twennie! Fank oo... pwease, Mike, pwease! Wet me cum... shorry, sho shorry, need it!"

The plea hung garbled in the air, a wrecked hum around the sodden gag, my body a taut bowstring over Mike's lap... ass throbbing mottled fire from the twenty cracks, pussy splayed and dripping, walls fluttering desperate around the promise of his buried fingers. The coil was a live grenade now, pinned at the pin: Every denied edge from the swats, every curl and grind building the wave to tsunami heights, my hips rolling frantic into his palm, slick flooding hot down his wrist to stain the kitchen floor. Tears soaked the panties in my mouth, the fabric a choking wad of my own shame... salty, musky, tasting of booth floods and lap begs... dribbling saliva down my chin to pool sticky on his jeans.

"Mmmph... pwease, Mike! Wet me... need to cum... sho shorry!"

The words slurred pathetic, hips bucking wild, clit pulsing under his thumb's feather tease, the stretch of his three fingers inside a cruel anchor holding me from the shatter.

Mike's breath shattered ragged against my ear... conflict fraying in the hitch, his cock a steel throb against my hip, denim rough under my grinding belly... but his hand didn't falter. Fingers curled deeper, scissoring slow and deliberate against that spongy spot, thumb circling my clit lazy, dragging the peak out like taffy without granting the snap.

"Not yet," he rasped, voice gravel and guilt, edged with that dark command they'd plotted in whiskey whispers.

His free hand splayed my back wider, pinning me firmer, ass clenching exposed under the boys' stares... Steven's eyes hungry from the chair, Liam's gleaming with boyish awe, pens forgotten in the log's hush.

"Beg proper, Sarah. Mean it. Say what you are."

The words twisted paternal into power, his thumb flicking once... sharp, electric... sending sparks lancing up my spine, the wave cresting vicious, just shy.

I thrashed... helpless, tears streaming hot, the gag muffling my wail into static as my walls clenched greedy around his thickness, chasing the friction with rolls that smeared fresh slick down his thigh.

"Mmmph... pwease! I'm... I'm a shlut! Your shlut... bad girl who needsh it! Pwease, Mike, wet me cum... fuh me through it!"

The confession cracked raw, voluntary filth spilling from my gagged lips, rebellion shredded to confetti under the need. Steven's chuckle rumbled low... triumphant, his hand twitching like he itched to join... but Mike's gaze held mine in the mirror across the room, stormy and owning, that flicker of unease buried under the rush. His fingers twisted inside... deeper, a final scissor that scraped my walls electric... and his thumb ground firm, unyielding circles on my clit, the dual assault shattering the hold.

"Yes," he grunted... permission like absolution, voice cracking on the edge of his own restraint... and his fingers thrust hard, fast, no more tease: Plunging knuckle-deep in brutal rhythm, curling relentless against the spot with every drive, thumb grinding my clit vicious under the heel of his palm.

The wave crashed without mercy... brutal, shattering, my body seizing bowstring over his lap as the orgasm ripped through.

"Mmmph... fuhhh!"

The gag swallowed my scream, but it tore free muffled and wild, walls spasming greedy around his pounding fingers, clit pulsing electric under the grind as I gushed... hot, slick flood soaking his hand, wrist, jeans in a torrent that splattered the floor. Hips bucked frantic, thighs quaking spread and locked, ass clenching mottled fire under the exposure, tits heaving half-bared from the tank's hem, nipples scraping cotton like sparks. Shame burned nuclear... cumming gagged and scripted, voluntary slut over stepdad's knee... but the pleasure drowned it, waves crashing relentless, my pussy milking his thrusts like it owned them.

He didn't stop... didn't grant a breath, fucking me through it with hard, fast drives that dragged the peak longer, meaner, his fingers scissoring wide between plunges to stretch me raw, thumb never lifting from the clit, grinding circles that spiked the aftershocks into fresh builds. The overstimulation bordered agony... nerves raw and screaming, every curl a jolt that made me sob into the gag, tears flooding unchecked... but the second wave coiled seamless on the ruins, coiling vicious from the relentless pound.

"Mmmph... no... too mush... pwease!"

The plea slurred wrecked, hips thrashing now, chasing and fleeing the friction in equal measure, slick gushing fiercer with every thrust, the wet schlick obscene echoing off the cabinets. Steven leaned closer... breath hot on my shoulder, hand ghosting my hair without pulling... while Liam's eyes widened, log forgotten, his free hand palming himself subtle through his shorts. Mike's cock twitched hard against my hip... steel and straining, denim damp from my flood... his grunts low and ragged, syncing with the rhythm, that guilty rumble in his chest vibrating through me like approval.

The second orgasm hit harder... meaner, a brutal contraction that seized my core, ripping a wail muffled into the gag as I convulsed, gushing wild around his pounding fingers, clit throbbing under the grind. Waves fractured, overstretched and overwhelming, my body arching bowstring-tight, thighs quaking helpless in their spread, ass clenching futile against the boys' devouring stares. Slick flooded hot... splattering his arm, the chair, the floor in a puddle that shamed me deeper than the tears... but he fucked through it relentless, thrusts unyielding, fingers curling vicious against the spot, thumb flicking sharp to spike the crest higher.

"Good... girl," he rasped... praise laced with power, breath hot against my ear... his free hand splaying my cheek wider, holding me open for the obscene view: Pussy stretched around his knuckles, lips puffy and glistening, the flood easing to shudders but not stopping, not with him buried deep, pumping slow now through the spasms, milking every flutter.

The third built on the wreckage... coiling slow but inevitable from the overstimulation, nerves frayed to wire, every shallow stroke a spark that licked higher.

"Mmmph... can't... pwease, Mike..."

The beg slurred broken, voice wrecked beyond words, but my hips rolled anyway... subtle, greedy... chasing the curl inside, the thumb's lazy circles soothing the raw throb of my clit. He slowed further... thrusts deliberate, fingers scissoring gentle now, thumb rubbing firm but unhurried, drawing the peak out like honey from a comb. The wave crested soft at first... then shattered full, a deep, rolling contraction that pulled a sob from my chest, walls clenching fluttering around his fingers, clit pulsing warm under the grind as the last gush ebbed slow, soaking his hand one final time. No flood this round... just deep, shuddering release that left me limp, boneless over his lap, body twitching in aftershocks, the gag sodden and heavy in my mouth.

Exhausted. Wrecked. Limp as a rag doll, every nerve humming spent, ass a throbbing bonfire, pussy a tender void aching around his withdrawing fingers. The wet schlick of their exit echoed faint... final, damning... as he pulled free slow, a last curl drawing one whimper from the gag. Slick trailed from his hand, strings catching the light, coating his knuckles to wrist in my shame. No words. Just his exhale... ragged, sated, that conflicted rumble fading to quiet. His palm settled on my back... patting once, paternal almost, before sliding up to my nape, massaging loose circles into the knotted muscles there. Aftercare. Twisted, gentle, his thumb easing the tension without erasing the brand. The boys watched silent... Steven's hand leaving my hair with a final stroke, Liam's eyes wide but still, no victory lap. Just the hush, broken by Mike's low grunt as he shifted under me, cock still straining but untouched, denim dark and sticky from my floods.

He wiped his hand then... casual, owning... palm dragging slow across my ass cheek, smearing the slick in a cooling trail over the mottled handprints, the residue glistening under the light like a mark. Up my back next... fingers trailing vertebrae, leaving a damp path from tailbone to shoulder blades, the chill kissing my skin as he shook off the last drops. No flourish. Just done, like wiping a spill after dinner. The gag slipped from my lips as I gasped for air... sodden wad tumbling to the floor, a crumpled flag of surrender... saliva and tears stringing from my chin, tasting bitter on my tongue. Limp. Exhausted. The room spun back into focus: Their heavy breaths, the puddle on the floor, Mike's hand lingering warm on my back.

"Boys," Mike said... voice gruff, edged with that frayed command... his pat turning to a lift, helping me up slow, steady as I wobbled to my feet.

Legs like jelly, thighs quaking, slick trickling fresh down my inner leg in a visible trail I couldn't hide, couldn't stop.

"Bring her up. Let her rest. Gentle."

Steven and Liam moved in sync... hands under my elbows, at my waist, steering me like glass that might crack. No gropes, no smirks... just support, Liam scooping my discarded shorts and panties from the floor, dangling them loose from his pinky like lost laundry. Steven's arm looped my back... palm flat and warm against bare hip, guiding without squeezing... as we shuffled to the stairs, my bare feet silent on the cool tile. The house creaked around us, shadows pooling long in the hall, Mike's gaze following heavy from the table... stormy, sated, that flicker of unease buried deep now, under the power he'd claimed. No goodnight. Just the weight of it, hanging.

In my room, they eased me onto the bed's edge... mattress dipping soft under my boneless weight, sheets whispering cool against fevered skin. Liam tossed the clothes beside me... a soft "Night, firecracker," with a wink that landed almost fond, no edge. He slipped out first, door clicking soft behind him. Steven lingered... kneeling slow in front of me like last time, eyes searching mine in the lamp's dim.

"You okay?" Voice low, no smirk... just quiet, his hand hovering near my knee, not touching. Waiting.

Steven's question hung in the dim, his knees creaking soft on the carpet as he knelt there, close enough I felt the warmth rolling off him but not touching... not yet, his hand hovering like a question mark near my knee. His eyes searched mine, that usual smirk scrubbed clean, leaving something rawer underneath: Not triumph, not quite pity, but a flicker of... concern? Or was that the haze talking, the post-shatter fog wrapping my brain in cotton, every nerve still humming from the three waves Mike had fucked out of me? Limp. Exhausted. My body a puddle on the bed's edge... ass a mottled bonfire throbbing with every heartbeat, thighs slick and trembling from the floods, pussy a raw, empty ache clenching around ghosts of his fingers, the stretch lingering like a bruise I couldn't ignore. The tank clung damp to my ribs, nipples peaked traitor against the fabric, the air cool on my bare everything below. No shorts, no panties... just me, wrecked and open, the crumpled wad of them clutched in my fist like a lifeline I couldn't quite grab.

Part of me wanted to snap...Get out, you freak, you filmed this, you laughed, you stroked my hair like some fucked-up therapist after wringing me dry.

Rebellion's ember, banked but there, flickering hot in my chest. But my voice? Wrecked, a hoarse whisper scraping up my throat, raw from gagged begs and muffled wails.

"Stay," I mumbled, the word slipping unbidden, soft and small, my free hand twitching toward his hovering one... not grabbing, just brushing knuckles, the contact electric and grounding all at once.

Why? Hate him... the squeeze on my thigh in the kitchen, the vid's garbled confession, the way he'd scripted half the rules in that midnight powwow. But the wipe-down last night, the hair strokes through the aftershocks... it stuck, twisted comfort in the chaos.

"Just... a minute. Don't touch. Talk or something."

He nodded... slow, no push... and settled back on his heels, hand dropping to his thigh instead, fingers drumming once, twice, like he reined in the itch to reach. The lamp's glow caught the faint flush on his cheeks, the way his shorts tented subtle, unspoken evidence of the kitchen's show.

"Alright. Talk it is."

Voice low, edged with that gravel he shared with Mike, but softer... no command, just... there. A beat, his eyes flicking to the crumpled panties in my fist, then back up, holding mine without flinching.

"That was... intense. Your call, yeah? Scripting it like that... gag first, edge through all twenty. Ballsy. Or crazy."

A half-smirk tugged his lip, but it died quick, eyes searching deeper, like he saw the crack I'd spilled at dinner: The fear, the her, the slut scripting her own fall.

"You good? For real? 'Cause if it's too much..."

"Too much?" I laughed... bitter, watery, the sound cracking in the quiet, tears pricking fresh as I shifted on the mattress, the sheets whispering cool against my bare ass, a mercy on the throbbing heat. 

"It's always too much. The log, the checks, the way you all... know. And still... I'm scarred of this side of me. Scarred of her"

My fist clenched tighter around the panties, the damp cotton seeping through my fingers, that musky tang wafting up like accusation. Know my slick, my begs, the way I'd chosen the humiliation because fighting it left me wetter, needier.

"Scared of her," he echoed, voice low and rough, no smirk... just quiet, like he was turning the words over, tasting them.

He shifted on his knees, the carpet creaking faint under him, close enough now that his knee brushed the bed's edge, the heat of him seeping through.

"The girl who... wins the heat. Yeah. I get that."

A pause, his gaze dropping to the panties clutched in my fist, then back up, holding mine, waiting.

"You don't have to hate her, Sarah. She's you. The fighter who scripts her own edges, chooses the gag 'cause it's honest. That's not losing. That's... owning the storm."

I flinched at the brush of his knuckles... light, feather-soft against my outer thigh, tracing the faint bruise blooming where Liam had pinned me spread. Not groping. Not checking. Just... tracing, like mapping a scar to understand it. The contact sparked... electric, unwelcome but not, sending a lazy throb low in my belly, clit twitching raw against the cool air.

"Stop," I whispered, but my hand didn't shove... fisted the sheets instead, knuckles white, the rebellion warring with the ache for more of that touch, that twisted care. After the swats, the floods, the begged permissions. 

Why him? Why now?

"You don't get it. You... you all made her. The rules, the logs, the way you watch and log my... wetness like it's a score. I fight it... kicked you today, smeared your mess... and she still wins. Cums gushing for the humiliation. What does that make me?"

Steven's thumb stilled... circling once, soft, on the bruise's edge... before pulling back a fraction, giving space but not leaving. His eyes lifted, holding mine steady, that intensity sharpening to something almost tender, the flush on his cheeks deepening under the lamp's glow.

"Makes you human, sis. Messy. Hot as fuck."

A half-smirk tugged, but it softened quick, his free hand scrubbing his jaw, stubble rasping.

His voice dropped lower, rougher, the tent in his shorts twitching visible as his knee nudged the bed again... closer, heat bleeding through.

"When's the last time someone was gentle with you? For real. Not aftercare bullshit, not a pat on the back after the storm. Just... gentle. No strings, no log."

The question landed soft, slicing deeper than any swat... 

Gentle…

A word foreign as mercy in this house, this life. Mom's ghost flickered: Hugs before she bolted, leaving me with Mike's rules and the boys' stares. Anna's teases, foot hooks under lunch tables, but that's heat, not gentle. Dad? Never knew him.

"I... don't know," I admitted, voice cracking small, tears pricking fresh as his thumb resumed... feather circles on my thigh now, inching higher but slow, asking with every pass.

The touch soothed the raw ache, easing the throb without feeding it, a balm on the bruise of her... the slut, the fighter, the me.

"Maybe never. Or... kid stuff. Before everything went to shit."

My fist unclenched around the panties, dropping them to the sheets like surrender, the damp wad rolling toward him. He didn't grab. Just let it lie, eyes on mine, waiting.

"Then let me," he murmured, thumb pausing at the crease of my thigh... high now, skirting the edge of my bare mound without dipping, the heat of his skin a whisper against my slick lips.

Not pushing. Offering.

"Be gentle. No log, no checks. Just... this."

His hand slid higher... palm flat now, cupping my outer hip, fingers splaying warm and still, holding without squeezing, the contact grounding the storm in my chest. Gentle. His other hand lifted... slow, telegraphing... to my face, thumb brushing a tear track from my cheek, rough pad soft against the flush.

"If you want. Say stop, I go. But if you want gentle now... let me show you what it's like. No edges. No begs. Just you, breathing."

The offer hung... tender trap or truce?... his thumb on my cheek circling lazy, mirroring the one on my hip, both touches light as breath, soothing the raw without igniting. Heat simmered low, yes... clit twitching at the proximity, pussy clenching empty for more... but it didn't roar. Didn't flood. Just... warmed, like sunlight after rain, his eyes holding mine without owning, without logging the flush. 

Rebellion whispered bolt... push him, sass him, reclaim the fight.

But the fear? Of her, of the heat winning? It quieted under that touch, the gentle cracking something open: Not shame. Not want. Just... need. For this. For him, twisted as it was.

"Yeah," I whispered, voice small but sure, my hand lifting... trembling... to his wrist, not shoving, holding.

"Gentle. Please."

The "please" cracked soft, voluntary again, but no gag this time... no script, no storm. Just me, leaning into the warmth of his palm on my hip, the thumb on my cheek easing another tear. He nodded... slow, no triumph... and shifted closer, knee nudging the bed's edge, his free hand sliding to my nape, fingers threading gentle through my hair, massaging the knots without pulling. Gentle. His palm on my hip warmed higher... cupping the curve of my ass now, not squeezing the throb but cradling, thumb tracing the handprint's edge like a scar he mapped to heal.

"Breathe," he murmured, breath ghosting my ear as he leaned in, forehead resting light against my temple, the stubble on his jaw scraping soft.

No plunge. No grind. Just hold... his body a warm line against my side, cock straining untouched in his shorts, but ignored, the focus on me: Fingers kneading my nape, palm soothing my ass, the other hand cupping my face, thumb stroking my lip now, gentle as a kiss not given.

The dam cracked slow... not shattering, but easing, tears spilling freer now, soaking his thumb as I leaned into him, bare skin pressing his clothed chest, the tank's damp cling the only barrier.

"When was the last time..." he whispered again, voice rough but soft, his palm sliding up my back... under the tank now, fingers splaying wide over my spine, tracing vertebrae like a roadmap home.

Gentle. No edge. No beg.

"...someone held you like this? See you, scared and all, and not push?"

"Never," I breathed, the word hitching on a sob, my hand fisting his shirt now... cotton soft under my fingers, anchoring as the warmth spread, easing the ache in my core without feeding it, clit softening to a hum, pussy relaxing empty for the first time all night.

His forehead stayed against mine, breath syncing slow... inhale, exhale... his thumb on my lip parting it gentle, tracing the inner edge without entering, a tease that soothed more than sparked.

"You... why now? After everything... the vid, the rules, the way you... watched me break."

"'Cause I wanted you to know how it feels." he said simple, no bullshit, his hand on my back circling lazy, palm flat and warm over the knobs of my spine, easing the tension knot by knot.

His thumb left my lip... brushing my collarbone now, light as air over the tank's neckline, dipping to trace the swell of my breast without cupping, the contact feather-soft, soothing the peaked nipple to a relaxed peak. Gentle. His cock twitched against my thigh... hot, insistent through the shorts... but he shifted away, giving space, the focus on me, not him.

"Want me to stop? Or... more? Gentle's what you say."

"More," I whispered, the word slipping easy now, my hand unclenching his shirt to slide up his chest... fingers splaying over his heart, feeling the thud sync with mine, steady and real.

No sass. No fight. Just lean... into him, into the hold, his palm on my ass kneading soft now, easing the throb without slapping, the other hand tracing my collarbone to my shoulder, massaging the knot there with thumbs that dug just enough to melt, not bruise.

Gentle.

His lips brushed my temple... not a kiss, a graze... warm breath whispering as I melted further, body unwinding under the touches, the fear ebbing to a hum, the heat a warm glow, not a blaze. 

Then I felt it. The orgasm came gently, like a wave on the beach. Like water gently washing over your feet. My fist clenched his shirt and I moaned deep from my chore.

We stayed like that... minutes blurring, his hands mapping gentle: Back, shoulders, thighs. Just soothing the wreckage, his forehead to mine, breaths mingling slow. No edge. No beg. Just held... seen, scared and all.

The clock on my nightstand ticked past ten when he pulled back... slow, reluctant, hands lingering a beat on my shoulders before dropping.

"Rest," he murmured, standing fluid, eyes holding mine one last time... no smirk, just that quiet intensity.

"Door's open. For real."

The door clicked soft behind him, leaving me bare and breathed, the warmth lingering like a promise. Gentle. His word, his touch. The slut? She quieted, for now.

And me? I'd script it. Fight it. Own it.
