It was like I was in my own little world up there. Away from the family and on my own. I often masturbated using Maggie as the woman in my thoughts. I... wondered what if, maybe she just might do me. I had graduated and started school at an area college. It was before Christmas when mom asked me to go up in the attic and bring down the Christmas decorations.

Master and Mistress sat at opposite ends of the table with the rest of us scattered down the sides. Candles on the table and along the walls gave the room a darkly.
