THE ATTENDANT
Chapter 7: The punishment (Part 1)
I was drenched in spit, in beer, a few hairs from Mark’s asshole were actually stuck on my left cheek, red spots were covering my body where I had been hit by my brother and his friends. I was grabbing my brother’s stiff dick in my right hand and Mark Johnson was filling my mouth with his big balls when I heard my step-father storming behind me:
“WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?”
Mark seemed to shrunken at the view of the imposing Stephan Clarck, he frantically looked for his shorts to cover himself. My brother was livid, his dick still in my hand, he pulled it away when he realized. Sam stood as far as possible from us.
“Dad, we…” Started my brother.
“What were you doing with MY Attendant?” Enquired my father, visibly struggling to maintain his composure.
“Sorry Mister Clarck, we were just asking the Attendant to do stuff and we got a bit carried away.” Mark’s voice had totally morphed, he sounded so weak, even innocent now.
What a pathetic jerk!
The Commander’s nephew hurried to put his sneakers back on his bare feet as if he were preparing to run away, he did not even try to find his socks.
“Sorry, dad. Mark and Sam do not have an Attendant and they wanted…”
“I don’t care about the Attendant, but the carpet is dirty and I thought you three were studying.”
His words felt like a dagger going through my body, I was so relieved he had stopped the madness, but still, he was acting as my Owner, not my father.
“Sorry." Said Sam: “We will take care of the carpet…”
“Non-sense, the Attendant will do but, should not you all go back to your studying?”
“Yes, Mister Clarck, we will go back right at it.” Said Mark.
“Yeah, let’s go back upstairs guys.” Settled my brother.
A few seconds later, they were hastily climbing up the stairs. I was slowly catching my breath.
“Dad, they humiliated me…”
“Shut up Attendant!” He slapped me but he took a step back when his hand touched my filthy covered in spit face. “In case you have not noticed, we are not alone in this house!” He gave a disgusted look at his now dirty hand.
My whole body was shaking. I could get used to so much, but this violence coming from the father figure I had admired all my life. That was the hardest to take.
“Go wash your face in the kitchen! It’s sickening. I can smell those guys’ dicks on you.”
I went without a word. What was there to say? As I was putting water on my face trying to get rid of the precum, the saliva and the beer, I heard my father calling for my brother.
“Martin, come down, we need to have a quick talk.”
When the three of us got back in the living room, dad checked to make sure that Mark and Sam were not in the staircase, he then closed the door and whispered angrily at my brother.
“Now, Martin, what the hell was that?”
“I'm sorry Dad, but you said I should let Sam and Mark order Peter, (noticing my dad’s angry face, my brother corrected himself), the Attendant, around. I had to let them do what they wanted!”
“Of course, you had to! But how… How did it degenerate into this non-sense? People could think that you are a fag!”
“They were just playing around, giving it crazy dares. But at some point, the Attendant refused to do one of them, and then, Mark said we should punish it!”
“WHAT?” My father turned back towards me, furious. “You refused to obey an order? In public?”
This was so unfair!
“What the fuck, Martin? You know that’s not what happened!” I stared at my brother with so much resentment, I could have killed him with my eyes. “Dad, Owner." I corrected myself. "They were asking me to do crazy shit! And despite it was messed-up, I did them all!” I started crying. “I did all the gross things they asked! All of them! They made me bark like a fucking dog! They made me… No… I did not do anything wrong this time! I obeyed!”
“Would you please lower your voice, damn it, they are still here!”
After all it had taken from me to abide with the crazy requests, even this was taken away from me. I was livid.
But my brother was not done. Probably upset that I had contradicted him, he said:
“The Attendant was checking on Mark’s dick, that’s why he got mad! That’s why it all degenerated!”
My father sighed, seemingly exasperated by my behaviour.
“I did not! I swear I did not check him out!” I shouted.
My father grabbed me by the throat and put his big hand all over my mouth. He had never looked this mad.
“WOULD - YOU – SHUT – THE - FUCK – UP - ATTENDANT!?”
Even my brother was shocked by our father’s reaction. I was turning red and suffocating under his grip. My Owner finally released me, I lost my balance and fell on the floor.
When the man I once considered as my father talked again, I was sobbing like a child.
“If I understand this correctly, in the end, you have acted as you were told, Attendant. Maybe it’s not that bad.”
He paced around the living room, trying to gather his thoughts.
“Those are just a couple of teenagers and maybe they won’t be too proud to say they were flaunting their dicks off while they were supposed to be studying. I just need to ensure that when Mark Johnson goes home, he does tell to his dad and favourite uncle that the Clarck’s Attendant was really obedient. Do you think that after this afternoon, he could say otherwise? Martin, I’m talking to you.”
My younger brother looked terrified.
“I don’t know what they could tell… I mean, yeah, maybe they’ll say that it was not super obedient at first but overall, I think that they were impressed with what it was willing to do! The Attendant did end-up doing everything it was told.”
“Hmmm… That does not sound too good. The Attendant should not be persuaded to do what it is told, it just should do it, right away.” My step-father looked severely at me, he sat in his armchair. “OK, I have a plan. We can still repair that mistake and make sure that they got the right message. Now, Martin, I want you to stay with them upstairs for, let’s say, the next 30 minutes, then you can tell them that they need to go home. At that time, I will be taking care of the Attendant…”
“But dad… Owner…” I don’t know why I kept trying. I am not even sure of what I wanted to say.
“Shut up Attendant! Martin is this clear? Do not tell them I was mad or that we discussed the Attendant’s matter. Just say that I wanted to check if everything was ok. Then, you’ll come downstairs with your two friends in about thirty minutes and we’ll give them something to talk about to their families.”
“Ok, Dad. Thank you.”
Martin ran up the stairs again.
The plan of my father was not very clear but, as always, it did not seem very good for me. I looked at him apprehensively.
“Listen to me Attendant. Listen to me carefully. The next half-hour is going to be painful for you but it is imperative that you take it, and take it without flinching. If one of these fuckers babble out that we were too lax with our disobedient and pervert Attendant, this is the end of it! The end of your comfort, the end of your afternoon jack-off sessions in my bed (so, he knew), the end of your time in this house! And I’m telling you, before the guards or inspectors show off at our door to take you away from me, to give you back to the State, I will sell you out, to the best offer, there are a lot of families interested in getting you. I heard that your dick and ass are getting quite some recognition in the state of Ohio thanks to General Thompson.”
My mind was a blur, I was still trying to comprehend how this whole thing could have turned against me when I had pushed all of my limits to make sure my brother’s sick mates, and then my father, would be satisfied.
“Attendant. Am I clear?”
“I…” I tried but could not formulate a sentence. I was too stunned to talk.
“Attendant!”
My step-father lost his patience, and his temper, once again.
“Look, I’ll make this simple. You have a choice: accepting your punishment now, or being sold to a way less compassionate household.”
This helped me coming back to my senses. No. I refused this ultimatum. That was too unfair. I was not in the wrong here. Not this time.
“But Owner, I have not done anything wrong, I…”
“Attendant!” He stood up, he was very intimidating.
“Please… Owner… Do not punish me, I promise you, I did not do anything wrong… I obeyed… I tried to obey…”
He seemed about to explode.
“FUCK ATTENDANT! YOU WANT ME TO SELL YOU OUT LIKE A VULGAR PIECE OF TRASH? IS THIS WHAT YOU WANT? WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO IF MY ATTENDANT CANNOT EVEN CONTROL ITSELF AND CHECK TEENAGE BOYS OUT!”
“I did not… I swear…”
“TELL ME, ATTENDANT. DO YOU WANT ME TO SELL YOU OUT TO GENERAL THOMPSON?”
“No… no… please…”
“WILL YOU TAKE YOUR PUNISHMENT?”
Terrified, I nodded.
“I WANT TO HEAR IT!”
“Yes, Owner, I will take the punishment.” I whispered.
Once again, my father had won. I should have known it by then, he would always win.
“Lie down on the dinner table, on your front.” He ordered drily.
Shakingly and without another word, I positioned my naked and already sore body on the marble table.
Lying there, I was no longer afraid. I was no longer ashamed. I was just numb. Because I could not comprehend or accept what was happening, my brain shut down completely and it decided not to think at all.I barely heard my dad coming back in the room, holding the metal box from the garage.
He started by tying up my hands and feet to the table with tight ropes so I could no longer move. My legs were spread. My ass had never been this exposed. I closed my eyes, my nose hurt against the luxurious table.
I heard my father open the door of the living room to make sure everyone could enjoy the show and then, the punishment began.
First, it was the paddle, right on my bare ass. The first hit was painful, the other ten were unbearable.
“Attendant, you will learn how to respect the Men in this house!”
“Yes, Owner.” I cried out. “Please, stop.”
He did not stop. He moved on to the swift, the thongs were slashing me. The paddle made me regret the slaps with just the hands, and the swift made me regret the paddle.
“If this is what I have to do for you to understand your place in this household, I will do it! Until the lesson is well anchored within you!”
It was anchored. There was no need for this.
“I understand Owner, I understand I have to obey. Please stop. I will behave.”
But he moved on to the whip. He was not too good with it, half of the time, he missed my ass and he hurt my thighs or my back instead. But maybe those were not mistakes.
“That might help you understand the consequences of your actions!”
The torture continued but I could not say what he did next or how long it lasted, I mostly blacked out. I still can hear him though. I will never forget this. It was almost as if he became weirdly turned on by this.
“THIS IS FOR THE DICKS YOU COULD NOT HELP YOURSELF FROM STARING AT!”
“THIS IS FOR GRABING YOUR BROTHER’S COCK, YOU DISGUSTING FAG!”
“THIS IS FOR PUTTING ALL OF US IN THIS MESS IN THE FIRST PLACE!”
This was not only a show. The frustration that my dad had felt for weeks was pouring uncontrollably out of him. At some point, my brother’s friends must have had left the house but I do not remember that. I do remember my brother trying to stop my father.
“Dad, they’re gone! Dad! You can stop now!”
“THIS IS FOR YOUR MOTHER! IF ONLY SHE COULD SEE YOU LIKE THIS, ALWAYS NAKED, ALWAYS CHECKING ON OTHER MEN, SUCKING THEIR BALLS! SHE WOULD BE HORRIFIED!”
“Dad! Please stop! He had enough!” Martin was pleading, I heard the panic in his voice.
“THIS IS FOR THE SHAME YOU BROUGHT TO MY NAME! THE NAME I ACCEPTED TO GIVE TO YOU WHILE YOU WERE NOT EVEN MY SON!”
“DAD! STOP! YOU ARE GOING TO KILL HIM!”
Finally, those words made him stop, my father left his tools there and left without a word. Something died in me that night.
Martin untied me.
I did not want to accept his help, but I did not manage to get down the table without his assistance. My back, ass and thighs were covered in bruises. At least, he did not hit my face or break my teeth, I thought sombrely, remembering the Attendant who had burnt down the house of his masters. I understood him now. I wanted to burn everything down.
My brother whispered things to me but I could not hear him. I painfully climbed up the stairs and lied down in my mattress. I passed out seconds after I hit the mattress but woke up later, in the middle of the night. My entire body was sore.
The next day was my lowest point thus far. Everything hurt, but again, the pain I was feeling inside was much worse than the rest. For the first time, I seriously considered leaving. Sure, I would be treated the same way, maybe worse elsewhere, but at least, it would not be my father beating me up.
I did not go downstairs to prepare the breakfast and they did not call for me. I spent the day without eating or even drinking anything, alone in “my” room. I thought a lot about my mother.
I was seeing her beside me.
After coming back from school, Martin came to check on me. He looked exhausted as well. He was concerned.
“Pete. Are you ok?” He whispered softly, caressing my hair, he was so gentle now.
“Mark and Sam were telling everyone at school what happened. It worked Pete. Everyone believes you are treated like an actual Attendant. I know it has been tough, I talked to dad, I told him he had gone too far. He will calm down now. If this is of any help, know that it worked!”
I did not reply. How could my brother not realize that he, himself, had gone too far? Making me eat his friend’s asshole, making me touch his dick. And how could he say that everyone believed I was treated like an Attendant? Did he not see that I WAS actually treated as an Attendant? It was not “play-pretend”, it was just a fact at this point.
Only later that night, when I was sure they were both asleep, I went to grab something to eat in the kitchen. Again, I foolishly thought about running away. I was naked but I could go to my brother’s room, take some of his clothes. He would probably wake up but I would just run for it. I knew where the car keys were.
But where would I go? I would certainly be happier as a homeless man wandering in the streets rather than staying in this house, as a less-than-a-man, but nowadays, homeless people were chased down by the State. They were much more useful on the battlefields. I would be caught right away. I was registered as an Attendant and my escape would be a serious crime punishable by death.
There was another thing too: despite everything, what retained me was not the fear of my own death but the fear of the consequences for my family. What would happen to them if I ran away? My father would be considered as responsible for my loss.
I hated myself for it but I could not bring myself to betray my brother and step-father. Despite all they did to me, I still managed to find excuses for them: it was a crazy moment; my step-father had lost his mind, just got carried away.
Truth is: they were all that I had left and I desperately wanted them to love me, or at least, acknowledge me.
The next day, I waited for them in the kitchen, kneeling down. They seemed surprise to see me there. I was surprised to see me there too. To this day, I cannot explain what got me back in my servant's role. In the morning, not knowing what to do, I just took back the role assigned to me by the Law.
“Good morning, Attendant” said my step-father entering the kitchen in his robe. That was uncommon to greet an Attendant.
I did not respond. I turned around to grab some orange juices that I could propose to him. My real intent was for him to see my back and my ass, bruised. This had the effect I wanted, he seemed uncomfortable.
“Look Attendant, about the other night…”
He could not end his sentence.
“Yes, Owner, what about the other night?”
“I…” He took a bite of the pancakes I had prepared. “I think we need to capitalize on this.”
That must be a new way of forming an apology, I thought.
“Capitalize on… my punishment?”
“Yes, Attendant.”
What did he have in mind? I came to hate every new plan my step-father was coming up with.
“Tonight, Martin and I are invited at General Thompson’s house.”
“I WON’T GO THERE!” I shouted immediately. “No, not this perv again!”
“This is not what I had in mind, Attendant. People in town have heard about what happened… hum… here. We thought we needed to convince Mark but actually, the young Sam was way more helpful, he was very shocked, or rather impressed, by the way we were punishing our Attendant and he talked about it, a lot. Someone came to me at work after hearing the rumours.”
I listened to him but did not react. What was he expecting? A thank you?
