Wonder Woman - Savage Manipulations (End Crisis pt1)

As this story evolved and changed while writing it I realized it was an opportunity to do something I have never done. A continuing series that might be four or five stories but all with a definite ending.

Wonder Woman takes on the responsibility of caring for some displaced people. She finds she has to make a deal with the devil to make sure the entire world doesn't fall into chaos.

I hope you all enjoy.

Wonder Woman - Savage Manipulations

“I know you have closed your borders for what you believe are good reasons. I will not dispute your intentions or your reasoning. All I ask is that you hear me out” The speaker calmly stated walking into a throne room. It was clearly a woman. Dressed in a long flowing cape and hood it was difficult to make out any feature of her except for the long uncovered legs that strode out in front of her as she walked.

She addressed a man on a throne. An old stone throne that had sat in a castle for a millennium. Bare and never used until barely a year ago. The man who now sat atop of that throne had revealed himself to be the last man to have ever sat atop of that throne.

“I hear your voice Princess but I do not see your face” The man on the throne grinned widely. While everything around him spoke to old and even medieval tastes, the decor and dress he wore were a modern suit with his tie undone and a glass of wine in his hand.

The woman striding towards the throne stopped a few feet away and bowed ever so slightly. When her head came back up her hood was tossed back. Raven black hair spilling from it down to her shoulders and piercing blue eyes looking him in the face with respect but a show of strength the man in the throne admired.

“Forgive me King Savage” The woman addressed him.

“I think we have known each other long enough to be on a first name basis, haven’t we Diana?” The man stood from the throne with his glass of wine in his hand and stared down at the woman.

“If that is what you wish, Vandal” Diana responded. Meeting his gaze with a smile and no less strength in her eyes.

“Are you here as Wonder Woman, or as Princess Diana?” Vandal Savage addressed the heroine. Contemptuously swirling his wine in his glass.

“Both” Diana replied.

“I will hear you out then” The King sat back on his throne with a reengaged look.

“Thank you. As you know your neighbors to the south are in the grips of a heated civil war”

“Yes I am quite aware thank you” Savage remarked dryly.

“I represent a large group of displaced peoples who need safe harbor. Your kingdom is the best and logical choice to bring them.” Diana asked.

“I am of course aware of these people but you must be aware Princess when I came back to my country to led it. It was because of their own hardships. They could barely feed themselves and now you ask me to feed twenty thousand more”

“Thirty actually” Diana corrected trying to be honest with the once villain who she and the rest of the worlds heroes still harbored doubts about. She had to be honest in her own mind though. Since he had come back to his kingdom he had done well. His people were fed and his economy was booming. He had been a stabilizing force for a people that desperately needed it.

“Thirty?? my dear Princess I would gladly help if I could but we are not in a position to feed them” Vandal seemed genuinely disappointed he felt he could not help.

“Just shelter them. I can arrange for food and provisions to be brought in” Diana asked.

“I can see to it that I can provide shelter and I will give so much as I can but my people must and always well come first” Savage warned.

“That is all I could have asked for. Thank you” Diana was pleased. Perhaps he had genuinely changed and thought of nothing more then to help.

“I do ask one thing” Savage continued a leer appearing on his face.

Not entirely sure she liked the look of that leer Diana hesitated for a moment.

“Which is?” She asked.

“I find ruling to be ever so tiresome and boring. I was king here long ago as you know and left when I tired. I find myself tiring of the tedious acts of ruling once more. I require stimulation” Savage’s leer became even more troublesome.

“What kind of stimulation?” Diana asked not entirely sure she was going to like the answer.

“I find my tastes are rather more primal and sexual at the moment” Savage’s leer became a sneer and a grin.

“Spit it out then” Diana lost all patience.

“I will grant all of these refuges citizenship and get them to work here if you agree to be mine” Savage’s sneer smiled. Around her Diana could see all of his advisers and people in the court were men in long flowing dark purple robes with their own hoods but she could see quite clearly the grins on all of their faces.

“That is a ludicrous request” Diana stated with all of her patience back in place and a diplomatic veil over her face.

“As you wish then. I will house them for thirty days. You have until then to find more permanent accommodations” Savage sat back in his chair and proclaimed.

“Thirty days is not near long enough and you know it” Diana said.

“It is all I am willing to give. My patience wears thin Princess. Unless you take my offer”

“Never!” Diana stated.

“Then thirty days it is” Vandal waved her away in dismissal. Diana found herself being guided by two of his purple cloak wearing advisers away from the throne room and out into the castle courtyard.

Diana had to admit it was a wonderful land. The castle sat nestled into a mountain side. The largest spire firmly framed by the large mountain dwarfing it. The courtyard itself was in beautiful bloom full of flowers that reminded her of home. The stone of the castle and the walls surrounding it were ancient and so weathered and placed that they seemed to blend into the mountain. The far end of the courtyard a gate opened into a larger palace that then opened up into a large garden that surrounded the rest of the castle. It had been left untouched for centuries before Savage had reclaimed his throne. He had set about to restore it but in his efforts he had directed more resources towards the city below. His capital city that was beginning to see tall buildings built among the old stone terraces. It was quite a scene of old and new. If it wasn’t for the meeting she had just had she would have found the whole country charming. Vandal had always been an evil man she thought but he had never been so perverse. He was either truly bored or playing another angle. Probably both she thought. Frustration gnawed at her until she realized she had at least found her charges some safety if only for thirty days. Her cloak and hood pushed away she jumped out of the courtyard into the air. Taking flight back to the refugees that were gathering at the border.

The scene at the border was chaos for another few hours while the orders trickled down from Savage. Finally the orders were given and the refugees were allowed in. Diana accompanied them. Picking up possessions and exuding a voice and sense of calm to them all. They were lead for a long walk towards a tent city that was coming into view. There were rows upon rows of large well staked out tents with what seemed to be power lines and generators as well as vast rows of portable toilets. Diana led them towards the camp. Surprised to see the King himself at the entrance to greet them. He smiled wide and gestured for them to come into the camp. There were no fences just the edge of were they had excavated for solid flt ground. Diana walked up to Savage with a nod and a gesture around the entire camp.

“Set up pretty quickly?” She asked.

“Truth be told I was anticipating a request for help. I set orders for this to be constructed a couple of weeks ago. Though honestly I was not expecting thirty thousand. The camp will accommodate about that but I am afraid if it goes beyond that I may have to expand or close our window prematurely” Vandal explained.

“So why the dog and pony show as some would put it?” She asked

He shrugged his shoulders.

“I told you I am bored”

“Well I thank you on behalf of all here. I know you have not given us much time but safety is paramount at the moment” Diana nodded and went back to helping.

“My offer still stands. You have thirty days to agree” Vandal called after her.

“Pig!” Diana sneered.

Vandal laughed. Turned to his men and issued some instructions. Food and water was immediately brought out to all in the camp.

A week later and the camp was just about overflowing. Diana had managed to get a couple thousand people out of the camp into other countries but not very much more and there was more coming in then she was getting out. Worse, the civil war fighting was getting dangerously close to the border. Every day she could hear and even see flashes of fire in the distance. It was upsetting the entire camp. Savage had allowed any refugee who could get to the border over and had increased his own military strength in the region to help safeguard and to make sure the war didn’t spill over into his own country. Diana found herself more and more turned to basic needs like finding cots enough for all and making sure the water was clean and the sanitation was well. A few times she had changed into her Wonder Woman costume and taken to the air to fight the armies clashing to prevent them from getting closer but she was only one woman. A goddess she may be but the fates seemed to be conspiring to draw that war closer and closer still. Today she found herself working to find some new sources of food. With a phone in her hand, wearing a simple track suit with a hood to guard against the heat she blended in to the masses of people around her.

“The Wondrous Wonder Woman on the phone. It seems odd” The voice of Vandal Savage came from behind.

He walked towards her. Flanked by two of his hooded advisers slash guards.

“King Savage. What can I do for you while I am on hold with the sixth different person”

He looked to his left to one of his advisers who produced a briefcase from behind his cloak. He placed it on his palm and let Savage open it. There was a stack of papers there.

“This is a contract for you. Read at your leisure. It relates to my offer” He handed it to her. She took in her free hand. Her first impulse was to throw the stack of papers into the air and destroy them with her sword but she knew that would be an insult to a man who up until now had been very accommodating not withstanding the deadline. Not to mention she currently didn’t carry her sword.

“I will when I have time” Diana said as calmly as she could.

“What may I ask are you trying to do?” Savage inquired.

“Trying to find a new source of food provisions. Our current supplier is having problems with constant delivery”

“How are your stores?”

“We have enough stored for a couple more days but after that we will have to start rationing”

“Perhaps I can be of assistance?” Savage offered.

“I would appreciate that but you made it clear that you could barely feed your own people”

“That is correct, however I have found these organizations react quite differently when talking to a head of state……. May I?” Savage gestured for the phone.

“Be my guest” Diana shrugged and handed her the phone.

Savage took the phone from her and they smiled at each other as he waited for the person on the other end to answer. It was another few minutes until he was connected.

“No this is not Wonder Woman….. this is King Savage…….. Yes that King Savage……. These people are hungry and I have assurances from your organizations and the world councils of their help…… I will expect deliveries every day starting tomorrow…… Thank you” Savage smiled with a bit of a leer and handed her the phone.

“Thank you” Diana took the papers she had been given and folded them up and placed them against her body wedged behind her belt.

“Not a problem. Perhaps you can join me tonight for a dinner?”

“I would be honored” Diana felt she had no choice but to agree to that small request.

“Wonderful…. Shall I have a car come and pick you up or can you make your own way?” Savage smiled.

“I think I know my way”

“As you wish, shall we say eight then?”

“Eight is fine” Diana gave a slight nod out of courtesy and then turned. She went to find some other volunteers to start work on other projects.

Eight came quickly when you work in a refugee camp. Diana found herself still working within minutes of having to be there. She wasn’t worried about being on time it would only take a moment for her to travel the distance but she was beginning to worry about her state of dress. Still in her fatigues as it were she knew she didn’t have time to change. Hoping to avoid a diplomatic incident she decided it best to take her more regal robes that she would wear at home with her and request some time to change and freshen up. Flying in these more common clothes always felt odd but she made it with a minute to spare and asked for a quick audience with the King and was granted it.

Diana walked into the throne room where Savage once more sat on his throne. There were a couple advisers about but nearly the same amount as before. Walking towards him he nodded and smiled at his advisers.

“I know you are far to well versed in diplomacy to attend a dinner with a King in such attire. Should I assume the day was long?” Savage smiled.

“Excuse the appearance but you are correct. Can I request some time and access to some facilities to freshen up?” Diana half bowed at the foot of the throne.

“Of course. I anticipated such a problem. If you follow my adviser here….” He pointed to a cloaked man to his right. “…...He will show you to an area and also show you to the dining room where I will be waiting. Take your time Princess” Savage was magnanimous in his gesture. Diana bowed once more in respect of his position.

“Thank you”

Diana followed the adviser through a small passageway door that opened into an old stone hallway. Old oak doors on each side and one at the end of the hallway that was about thirty feet long and about seven feet tall. She was led to the end of the hallway and through the door into a large courtyard. It was a different one then what she arrived through. She could see some old stables that still housed some horses across from her. She was led to the right and along high stone walls to another oak door on the right. Opening it and stepping through into another hallway of the same dimensions she was shown to the first door on her left. Opening it to be shown a large bedroom that was clearly for guests. A large four poster wooden bed and a sitting area with a fireplace. The decorations were modern with a touch of the classical resemblance of the stone walls and medieval architecture. There was a door to the left of the bed that seemed to be to a washroom. The adviser pointed to it and said as much. Diana nodded her thanks and closed the door to the room and went to the shower and sink to freshen up.

Longer then she would have liked to keep royalty waiting, even one of the nature and history of Savage Diana emerged from the room. Freshened up and wearing her toga she was escorted to a large dining area that seemed to be behind the throne room. The room was large with a large ceiling. Heavy dark brown wood and old gray stone dominated the space. Over on the far side of a large dark brown dining table was Savage. Sat with a glass of wine in his hand. He smiled and raised himself and his glass of wine to her.

“Welcome. I trust you are now feeling better?”

“Yes thank you” Diana was shown to a seat on the side of the table close to him. Sitting down in the surprisingly comfortable wooden chairs a cloak wearing adviser arrived with a glass of wine and a glass of water. She took the water and waived away the wine. With a look to Savage the adviser shrugged his shoulders and departed. Another arrived with a place mat and cutlery. Diana allowed it all to be placed in front of her and laughed at their seeming wonder and indifference towards their King.

“You have them well trained” Diana half teased.

“They wish to serve but these are just servants and advisers. I have more devoted people elsewhere” Savage leered and winked.

“I am sure you do” Diana shuddered at the thought of what he used those particular people for.

Savage chuckled to himself and looked over the Amazon. He found that she filled out her toga in all the right areas

“Have you had a chance to go through that contract I gave you?” He asked earnestly.

“No I have not. You have quite the audacity to even attempt to do what you are offering”

“Opportunity and modern diplomacy grant me a certain clemency. You would be extremely curious if I offered aid without any strings” Save replied.

Diana had to admit, that much was true. If she had come asking for help and he had granted it without any reservations or demands she would have been wary from the beginning.

“That much is true” Diana admitted.

“Good, then hopefully this wont disturb you too much” Savage smiled and motioned with his hands towards one of the advisers on the outer edges of the room. Diana saw that the adviser spoke something into his sleeve. Presumably a com link of some sort. A large wooden door opened on the other side of the dining room. In stepped a woman. She was nude except for a collar around her neck. It was a deep black and looked metallic from Diana’s viewpoint. Her first instinct was to rush over there and make sure all was well with her but she could see from the woman’s expression and body language that she was perfectly fine. She carried a silver tray across both hands. She headed first to Savage who smiled and nodded at the girl. This close now Diana could see she was no more then twenty years old. Beautiful, about five foot seven inches tall with long flowing brunette hair and piercing blue eyes. They turned to her and smiled as she made her way with the tray towards her. The woman was stacked with an endowment that would please any one out there. Her pubic area was shaved with a tattoo in it’s place. It seemed to be of a simple bar-code. Her smiling face brought Diana’s attention back to her face as she approached.

“Oh my god it’s Wonder Woman!” The woman exclaimed.

“Yes sister. Is all well?” Diana said calmly and under her breath so that Savage could not hear.

The woman came closer carrying the tray.

“Oh yes of course…… why?” the woman asked with a raised eyebrow.

“You are naked and collared serving in a castle sister….. I have to ask if you are well” Diana again said under her breath.

The woman arrived with the tray. On it Diana could see a selection of cheeses and deli meats. As well as some fruit.

“Oh….. HAHAHA….. Yeah I kind of tend to forget now. It’s just the uniform or lack of. I thought it really weird at first and even exploitative but everyone is so good” the woman explained.

“It’s very exploitative” Diana confirmed with a frown.

“No… not if I have agreed to it and I am fine with it. There are dozens of us around the castle Wonder Woman. All happy in our service” The woman confirmed.

“Are you being coerced in any way?” Diana asked.

“Coerced??… hahaha… no not at all. The king pays well and I am in law school….. I need the money” the woman said.

“So you are fine with it all?” Diana asked.

“I mean it was weird to begin with but it’s nothing to think about now. I guess you have to get used to being naked in front of people but it seems like a bigger deal then it actually is” the woman said.

“If you are being held here I can take you away now” Diana prodded.

“Held??… it’s the best job I have ever had” the woman frowned.

“Would you like something from the tray” the woman asked continuing to talk to Diana.

“No thank you….. but thanks for the information” Diana replied.

The woman gave a slight bow and returned through the door that she ad come through.

“You handled that remarkably better then I thought you would” Savage said.

“I thought to use my lasso but I could see the conviction in her eyes. I trust you heard our conversation” Diana asked.

“Not all but I could imagine what was said” Savage said.

“That was a test” Diana stated.

“Of course” Savage smiled as he showed his empty glass to an adviser who immediately signaled for a refill.

“Not very smart Vandal. You know I could bring this whole castle down in moments if I wanted to” Diana warned.

“Yes but then what would happen to all those displaced people you are caring for?” Vandal teased.

“Are you threatening them?” Diana’s voice rose in anger.

“Oh heavens no. The international repercussions alone would be far too much of a headache let alone displeasing you”

“Then why mention them”

“Simply to see where you can be pushed” Vandal signaled again to the same adviser with a wave of his hand. Diana was confused for a moment until another beautiful young woman, nude and collared entered the dining room. This one was a little taller. Maybe five foot nine with beautiful long flowing red hair that shined against her white pale skin. Coming closer Diana could make out freckles all over the girl and once more the tattoo of a bar code where her pubic hair should be. This one did not carry a tray but instead in one hand she carried a briefcase. Oddly Diana thought her other hand was positioned horizontally across her back as if she were forbidden from using it.

“Another test?” Diana queried.

“In a way, more like show and tell” Vandal answered. He took the briefcase from the young woman. Once her hand was free she immediately placed her now free hand behind her back in the same position as the other one. Diana also noticed that she took two steps back from Vandals chair to his right and slightly parted her feet. Clearly Diana thought, some sort of conditioning and protocol training.

Vandal turned the briefcase in his hands making sure not to knock over his glass of wine on the table he placed it in front of him. Diana off to the side could only make out the side of the case as he touched a few things on the front that looked like a numbered lock. With a pop the lock sprang open and he opened the briefcase. Again from her vantage point she could not see much but she did notice the briefcase was pretty much all cushion except for an object in the middle. From the looks of it, it appeared to be metal, old and crude. Savage reached in and grabbed the item and pulled it out.

It was a collar. He placed it in the space between the two of them. Diana examined it closely with her eyes. This was no ordinary collar. She had seen the like before.

“Where did you get this?” Diana demanded.

“I found it on my travels hundreds of years ago and have kept it safe. Originally I loved the workmanship and the tiny etchings on the side were so very….. interesting” Savage smiled. There was something sinister about the smile.

Diana didn’t have to look at the collar to know there were etchings on it. On each of these types of collars were usually very different etching done by the same person thousands of years ago now. There were a couple home on paradise island and she had spent years since her arrival in man’s world buying up and destroying any that had survived from antiquity. The collar in front of her was what her people referred to as the Hercules collar. Though he had never used one on an Amazon or anyone that she was aware of. It was a collar that was forged in the very flames of the underworld itself by the master forger Hephaestus. They had been made by him on a whim. Spurned by an Amazon, who was rumored to have been Diana’s own mother Hippolyta. In a rage he made thousands of these collars that when placed around an Amazon’s throat would deprive them of their enhanced speed and strength. He had meant to deliver them to a warlord with instructions on how to invade paradise island but the Goddess Athena had stopped him. In the battle many of the collars fell to earth. Some were discovered while others remained hidden. When Hercules came to the island and briefly enslaved her people the Amazon’s began to call these collars of ancient times the Hercules collar. Diana had seen close to fifty of them in the world. Most often they were in a museum or someone’s private collection. She had found them all. Being forged by a god they were almost unbreakable and extremely hard to destroy but Diana was not without resources and had destroyed many. The one currently in front of her seemed to have originally been black in color but a form of rust had taken root in many places. Even over the beautifully carved etchings. She had seen many different depictions within the etchings. Some were stories of beautiful woman presumably Amazon’s in the throws of passion with males, others had ancient Greek words that loosely translated into such things as slave, whore, slut, toy and the like. In her travels and her prior experiences with the collars she knew that as soon as she touched it. She would get a jolt of sexual energy and if there was any imperfect features about the collar brought on by wear or age it would instantly heal itself back to the time it had just come out of the forge. Knowing this she kept her hands away from the collar. She knew Savage eyed her closely. He obviously knew or suspected what it was. Her eyes drifted to the etchings and found there were some words that had been rusted out but she could make out the beginnings of her mothers name. There were intricately carved pictures as well that showed an Amazon in chains being brought to kneel before someone, probably meant to depict Hephaestus Diana thought. Her interest peeked she looked up into the smiling and very interested King.

“Do you know what it is?” Diana asked.

“I know the myth of Greek God collar as it was known. I would suspect you Amazon’s have a different name”

“We call it the Hercules collar” Diana confirmed.

“Interesting, was it he who crafted them?”

“No, far from it. His name in our legend has just become apart of the collar….. for obvious reasons” Diana stated. Knowing full well that Vandal Savage would know the story of how Hercules had enslaved the Amazons.

“I could see that. My ancient Greek is a little rusty and there is quite a lot of rust on it but I could swear I see your mothers name there” Savage offered as he leaned in closer and ran his fingers around the sides of the collar.

“Yes I noticed that as well” Diana confirmed.

“Was it hers I wonder?” Savage mused.

“I don’t believe so. There is no recorded event of her ever being collared by one or any Amazon wearing one…… but history has been omitted from our lore before” Diana conceded.

“Judging by the pictures I would say it is meant as a story. Perhaps it was meant for her but never reached her. Suggested by the fact I found it on a mountain top in India hundreds of years ago. I would say this collar never left man’s world as you put it”

“I would agree” Diana was intrigued and more then happy to talk history and artifacts with the man.

“Only a few of them ever made it to Themyscira and even then it was more of an oddity then them being used. I still can’t think of a recorded time of one of these ever actually being put on an Amazon” Diana thought aloud.

“Again your history could have simply omitted the fact…. I would trust your people would not want such a history to be widely known” Savage offered as way of explanation.

“I would agree but we are generally very open and honest…. At least about our servile past” Diana stated.

Savage accepted this reasoning with a nod and sat back in his chair.

“Why show this to me Vandal?”

“Mainly to confirm my suspicions of it’s past and nature. Also to see the look on your face….. which was truly amazing. A mixture of fear, interest, strength and calm”

“Glad I could put a show on for you” Diana stated dryly.

“A better show would be if you put it on” Savage smiled in a joking matter but Diana knew of course there was a genuine wish for him to see that.

Diana looked at it again and she had to admit her curiosity about what the writing said in full and the full depiction of the images was eating at her. Loath to give him any more of a show in her mind but her heart wanted to see the piece as it was meant to be seen. She reached out towards it. Aware it was not her artifact.

“May I?” Diana asked.

“By all means” Savage gestured with both hands in front of him. He picked up his glass of wine as he watched.

Diana reached down and took a hold of the collar. Immediately there was a slight flash of white light. Savage saw it and became instantly far more interested then he already was. Diana felt the rush of adrenaline and sexual energy go through her. Hephaestus was truly a mad genius and had designed a perfect trap for an Amazon ensnared in one of these. They would continually keep the wearer on edge and aroused. In her many battles and trips she had met Hephaestus many times, even called him friend. He was much more calmer now a days and repentant for these very devices. It was he that she would bring them to and watch as he would melt them away in the same fires that had given birth to them. The white light reseeded around the collar. Diana saw that it had transformed into it’s whole state. It shined a deep black. The etchings and the words were in a thin gold. Made it perfectly easy for her to read. Diana eyed the words and a shock went through her system. The words translated would have been ‘Queen Hippolyta no more. Princess Diana enslaved toy’ Diana’s mind reeled. She was not even alive when the collars were made. This was either prophetic or new. She needed a moment. In that moment Savage read the words and chuckled.

“I just assumed you were not around yet. This was designed for you” Savage didn’t seem completely surprised but amused beyond all measure.

“I wasn’t alive yet. Not for another few hundred years” Diana confirmed.

“How….. interesting”

“Where did you find this again and when?” Diana demanded.

“In the Himalayas roughly five hundred years ago. Time as you know when you are immortal kind of blends together” Savage explained but Diana could feel there was something else to the story. Perhaps it didn’t pertain to the collar itself but she trusted her instincts and knew that he wasn’t being completely honest.

“Not possible. It was forged after everything” Diana mused.

“A mystery to be sure. One I think you would be most uniquely suited to and driven to uncover” Savage confirmed.

“Is it for sale?” Diana asked

“I am sorry no. I could imagine you are quite motivated to make sure these are not available out there but I assure you I will not sell it to anyone who had bad intentions”

“Haha I would imagine you are thinking of this collar around my throat right now, speaking of bad intentions” Diana stated.

“I would be lying if the thought is not without a certain amount of intrigue. Thus the contract” Savage laid back once more in his chair.

“I could just take it” Diana warned.

“You could” Savage confirmed.

Diana stared at him. The collar still in her hands. She looked deeply into his eyes. He was smiling with his hand holding his wine glass. He brought it to his lips and took a sip and continued to smile. Diana handed him back the collar.

“You may keep it for now” Diana warned again.

“You can try it on if you like” Savage taunted.

Diana’s eyes bore through him. Quite certain if she did have heat vision she would have incinerated him. He obviously didn’t know what the legends said would happen when the collar is placed around an Amazon and she was not interested in educating him. It was said that when the collars are placed around an Amazon not only do they lose their strength and speed. Matching cuffs and chains are said to magically appear. They are apparently under the direct mental control of the person who placed the collar on her.

“Maybe another time” Diana warned him again with her eyes. He smiled and placed it back in the brief case. With a wave of his hand the woman who had been standing there the entire time came forward and collected the case. She was sent off back through the door she had come through.

Soon the meal arrived and they chatted about the current state of the camp. Diana was surprised to find that he seemed quite concerned about the well being of those under her care. He never wavered from his deadline of thirty days though. The meal itself was fantastic. Some sort of duck she surmised with some beautifully well done veggies. It was the best meal she had had in quite sometime.

“Thank you for the meal” Diana said honestly.

“A Princess deserves such delicacies every day but I understand your want to eat the same as the people under your care” Savage offered again another glass of wine to which she declined.

“Speaking of which I would like to get back” Diana said.

“I understand but I must insist that we at least talk about the contract”

“I don’t understand your fascination with it. I will not sign it, whatever it states. Even if I haven’t been able to find room elsewhere for all my people by the end of your deadline”

“As you wish. I suppose it’s just my own fantasies and I would like for you to at least entertain it”

“I have no idea what you have in mind, but you made it quite clear that it would be sexual and primal whatever that is supposed to mean so that’s enough. Especially when I see what some of your other servants wear”

“That is why I exposed you to them so that you can get a better idea” Savage confirmed.

“Yes well that is enough” Diana said.

Savage stood from the table. A cloaked adviser was immediately next to him. A set of papers in his hand. The King took them from him and handed them again to Diana. It was the same contract. Diana hadn’t even looked at them before when she had been giving them. Now with the stack directly in front of her she made out the first couple of lines. It read ‘Slavery contract’. That alone was enough for her to pull her nose up at the thing but the next line really angered her. ‘Wonder Woman, Princess Diana now and forever more to be named slave, slut, whore, cunt or whatever else her Master desires’

“YOU ARE TRYING MY PATIENCE!!” Diana roared. The advisers all stepped back. Vandal Savage to his credit did not seem disturbed but the chair just moved backwards.

“Truly I am sorry. I want this and it will make me stick around longer here. I think you would agree I am a calming influence in the region” Savage said as calmly as he could. Diana could detect a tremor in his voice.

“You think I would allow myself to be debased simply to bring peace to this region?” Diana exclaimed.

“Yes” Savage replied simply.

“You are crazy”

“If that collar was made after the whole problem with Hephaestus then I wonder why your name is there?” Savage teased.

“You know?” Diana asked.

“I have suspicions”

“Such as?” Diana asked.

“Someone else who decided that the collars or at least one needed to be forged again” There was a hint of truth in his eyes. Like again he knew more then he was saying which was quite possibly true.

“Hephaestus would never forged another” Diana answered.

“Would he not?” Savage asked with a sneer and smile restored to his face.

Diana stared at the man and felt like taring down the entire structure around them all. She took a deep breath and refocused herself.

“We are done here” Diana turned from the table.

“Don’t forget this” Savage said. Diana turned to look at him once more and found him holding the contract in his hands. Despite herself and for some unknown reason she walked back to the table. Snatched the contract out of his hands and turned away.

Making her way to the room she had changed in she grabbed her other clothes and without another word she took to the skies back towards the camp.

Her sleep was restless that night. Tossing and turning in her sleeping bag within her tent. Images of the collar running through her mind. Anger at the contract and Savage’s smug smile. Knowing full well if he wasn’t the leader of a sovereign nation she would have thrashed him within an inch of his immortal life. Throwing the sleeping bag open Diana clad in only a white nightie and shorts raised herself from the floor and changed into her more familiar garb of her Wonder Woman costume.

“I need answers” She mused to herself. The camp was still and peaceful at this late time but where she was going she was going to need her wits about her. A trip to the forges of Hephaestus.

The fires of the forges were so hot that the Gods themselves sweated in their presence. Diana a Goddess onto herself felt no less uncomfortable but unlike her other kin she was fine with being uncomfortable. She had spent more time with Hephaestus just talking about the affairs of their fellow Gods and Goddess and the workmanship of his craft then actually requesting things of him. Like all others did. They only came to the forge to have him construct something for them. Diana regarded him as a friend and though her rage was fierce at the moment she knew it would not suit her to go see her friend to simply let the rage out. So Diana arrived in Hephaestus’s domain with a smile. As always she found her cousin at work with a poker in one of his great forges. A determined and concentrated look on his face. He was accustomed to the fires of his workshop and thus he unlike all other gods did not sweat in this place. But the fires over the course of time had scorched his skin and he had became a little hairier then the rest of the Olympians in an effort to avoid the embers of his flames. Hephaestus was a smaller in stature god. Standing a foot or so less then Diana herself but still like all Olympians he could be a formidable presence. Diana waited patiently for him to finish. Knowing full well from years of interactions with him not to bother him while he had something in the fire. It took a few minutes but when he brought the poker out of the fire it held a sort of egg shaped object. About the size of her head it glowed super hot from the flames but was cooling quickly. It seemed to be golden as it’s color emerged and carved around it all were beautiful etching of Elysium.

“Beautiful” Diana said honestly. Her words caught his attention. He smiled and placed the egg down on a nearby table.

“Just something Apollo asked to be made up” Hephaestus smiled and opened his arms to give her a big hug.

“What brings you here?” he asked.

“I will be honest and forthright with you my cousin. I am angered by something you might have possibly done” Diana smiled but let a bit of her rage pour through.

Hephaestus looked at her and nodded. He gestured to a pair of simple looking wooden chairs that they moved to sit in. Diana had sat in them before and knew them to be comfortable and sturdy as only she would expect from the forger of the gods.

“What is it?” he asked.

“We have talked many times before about the collars….” Diana stopped to gauge his reaction. She saw in his face an earnest expression and his nod was full of understanding and still unaware of what she might be here about.

“…. I have discovered another one in man’s world” Diana continued.

“Where is it? Bring it here so that I may destroy it as I have done the others” Hephaestus said earnestly.

“It is not in my possession. It is currently owned by a vile and despicable human but their politics would not allow me to remove the item from his ownership without serious and deadly consequences” Diana said.

“I will never understand why you feel the need to abide by their rules” Hephaestus shook his head but Diana knew from previous conversations that he understood her reasoning just did not accept it.

“This does not sound much different from the many others you have brought back here to be destroyed” Hephaestus continued.

“This is much different…… it has my name on it” Diana looked into his eyes as she told him. She saw at first confusion and then awareness dawn on his face.

“Ah” Was all he could say.

“Care to enlighten me cousin? We have discussed these foul things many times and I was under the impression you had long since atoned and regretted even making them by the time I was even born” Diana stepped closer in a slightly aggressive stance.

He moved slightly back. No stranger to combat Hephaestus was not going to let Diana close enough for her to grab him. Though he as still a God he knew that she could best him in any combat.

“I didn’t have a choice” His eyes were full of regret.

“You? Did not have a choice but to forge something you detest in your own forges?” Diana asked with no small amount of sarcasm in her voice and accusation.

“Yes” he stated firmly with pleading eyes that wished for her to ask no more but knowing full well she would. Diana looked at him closely and thought about it for a moment.

“There are only two entities I can think of that would have you make something you had no wish to. My father and the fates. Zeus would not want such a foul thing to be made out there for his daughter and the only entity that would force him to even consider it to be allowed would be the Fates” Diana reasoned aloud. She could see by the look on his face that Hephaestus was glad that she had figured it out without him saying to much. Diana couldn’t blame him. The Fates were fearsome and the Gods stayed clear of them for they worried that they had the power to even destroy them. In many times before Diana had dealt with them and found them to be confusing, duplicitous and self serving. All for beings that supposedly guided the fate of all.

“They had you cast it?”

“Yes….. they said it may never be needed but all roads must have ends or some other such nonsense. You know how they are” Hephaestus’s eyes pleaded again but his stance was far more sturdy and sure of himself now that he thought she wouldn’t attack. He was probably right about that but her rage boiled underneath her.

“Why?”

“I don’t know…. Honestly I don’t know” He said and she was inclined to believe him.

“Then I must ask them” Diana turned from her friend and cousin.

“Be careful Diana…. This was so secret I believe only they, I and your father know about it” Hephaestus called from behind.

That much she believed to be true. If such a device had been widely known to be out there she had many such enemies both among her fellow Olympians and wider still in man’s world that it would have been discovered years ago. Not to mention the genuine reaction Savage had had when she brought the collar back to pristine order.

“I will” Diana called as she walked away.

“Oh...” Diana turned as a thought occurred to her.

“Anything more special about that collar?” She asked.

Hephaestus walked up to speak with her once more.

“It has all the same properties. Unbreakable, the shadow chains, the… emotional changes...” Hephaestus stopped for a moment. Inwardly Diana smiled knowing that he could not bring himself to say that the collar makes the wearer aroused.

“….. they had me make one change. It will fall off of the wearer every one hundred years” He finished.

What an odd thing to have built into the collar she thought.

“That’s odd” She said aloud.

“I thought so too” He confirmed.

“We are immortals. All the others could not be broken or removed once put on. Why the change on this one? Any guesses?” Diana mused.

“I could only think that the Fates could see a circumstance that would require the wearer to wear it but would not have to wear it for all time. However if the wearer places it back on themselves after the initial one hundred years it does become permanent”

“Odd” Diana thought.

“Thank you though. I was angry my friend but I know you could not disobey the Fates” Diana placed a hand on his shoulder and squeezed in a gesture of friendship. Hephaestus smiled and took that hand into his.

“Be careful Diana. Clearly something bigger is at work” His eyes showed nothing but concern.

“Isn’t there always” Diana smiled and kissed the back of his hand and was on her way.

Diana hated the climb to where the Fates resided. It wasn’t that it was a tough climb, or that the air around was dry and thin. It was the constant storms around the mountain which they had claimed. She had grown up literally in paradise, storms were never a nice thing for her. There was no stairs and barely footholds for her to climb. Getting to the Fates was not supposed to be easy she reminded herself with each effort.

After sometime she managed to climb into the area the Fates liked to be. It was a large old Greek temple with toppled columns. Strands of string woven in between marble and rock all leading further into the larger temple that was embedded in the mountain. Following the strands deeper into the temple Diana knew what to expect. The lighting became darker and the air became thicker.

“Hello?” She hailed from the front as she walked in.

“Princess Diana” A cold voice said from inside.

“Clotho?” Diana called, trying to place the voice.

“Yes” The Goddess came into view. Wearing a torn and filthy toga. Diana knew it was for show, like most other Goddesses the Fates could be among the most beautiful people in existence if they so choose. Long brunette hair down to her shoulders and green eyes Clotho could be as beautiful as herself. If she so wanted.

“Were are your sisters?” Diana was always wary of the Fates. They had been known to have what they considered fun at visitors expenses which often resulted in people dying.

“They are not here at the moment”

“I have questions I would like to be answered please” Diana asked.

“Ask, I make no guarantees that I answer” Clotho responded.

“Why did you have Hephaestus make a collar for me and have it lost to mans world?” Diana decided it best to just ask without having to go around the subject.

“Ah the collar was found by that interesting human immortal was it?” Clotho asked right back.

“Yes, why allow it to be in his hands?”

“For the greater good. Your father agreed that it may be needed” Clotho answered if cryptically.

“My father believed a need may arise that I may have to forfeit my freedom?” Diana asked astounded.

“Yes” A voice from behind answered. It was another one of the Fates. Atropos strode into the view. Long blonde hair and in equally despairing clothing. Diana half turned to see her.

“Why?”

“To avoid a great suffering. One your father knew you would want to do all in your power to stop” The third and last Fate Lachesis said as she came from behind Clotho from the darkness.

“My father knows I would do all within my power to safeguard innocents”

“It is for that reason we had the collar made” Clotho confirmed.

“Was it supposed to be in Vandal Savage’s hands?” Diana asked.

“It is not out of place” Lachesis refused to confirm or deny.

“Come look at your adopted world” Atropos gestured her back out into the crumbling yard of the temple. She waved her hand and a map of the lands around Savage’s homeland. Diana could see the conflict raging in the border country. Strings emerged from that country. Dozens upon dozens of strings reaching out across the world connecting with other countries. Some even going into the underworld. Most stressful was seeing some even into her homeland of Themyscria.

“Are you saying all of these countries are engaged in this war in some form or another?” Diana asked, trying to not sound anxious.

“Yes, but look” Clotho brought her attention back to the map. The strings were spreading back out from all the connected countries. Coming together they raced across the map to other countries, almost all of them in the world and then finally all the strings combined into two and ended back in Savage’s homeland.

“It all leads back to him?” Diana asked more rhetorically then anything but the lack of an answer confirmed her musing.

“If he pulls on one string” Clotho called. Diana watched as the strings tightened and broke. She saw the conflict in the neighboring country explode across the globe.

“He can cause a world war!” Diana exclaimed.

“If he tugs on the other” Atropos called and the battles raging stopped and the countries including the one currently fighting stopped and peace reigned.

“He can cause it or stop it. What kind of web as he woven? And how to influence” Diana mused.

“The immortal holds all answers” The Fates all agreed.

“If I pull?” Diana asked.

In front of her the map which was peaceful erupted in flames.

“I see” She said deadpan.

“The immortal must be confronted” The Fates all said.

“Oh I will be confronting him. His ideas of relieving his boredom will have to be readjusted” Diana snarled.

“Careful, the immortal is clouded in darkness. A Darkness that even we can not see the fate of”

“I will be. Thank you for your help” Diana bowed slightly to all three. Making her way back to the edges of the mountain that she would have to now climb down.

Wonder Woman dressed in all her garb as the heroine known throughout the world walked through the camp. This was not the refugee camp she had lived in the past couple of weeks. This was a camp of war. All around her were the soldiers of one of the sides in this stupid civil war. She had landed in the middle of the two forces. Preventing them from fighting against each other she had demanded and granted a meeting with the respective sides. She was being escorted for lack of a better word by both forces on each side to a hastily constructed tent. Inside the tent she found a long conference table with two sets of peoples on either end. Some glaring at each other and others whispering in hushed tones to the two individuals sat on either end of the table. Diana knew who each of them were from the moment she spotted them. On her left sat General Curis, the self appointed leader of the peoples army and to her right the supposed duly elected President of the country President Montgomery. Each she knew from her intelligence and monitoring believed had the will of the populace behind them and were righteously fighting an unjust civil war. In reality as Diana always knew and so did most when they thought about it. It was about two sets of peoples vying for more power with no regard for the so called little people who get trampled in their wake. Both leaders were large men. Heavily muscled with firm sets of jaws on them. So similar in size and scope Diana would believe them to be brothers if she didn’t know any better.

“Gentlemen” Diana greeted them.

“It is time to end this war before it gets out of hand” She continued.

“It ends when the weasel over there accepts the will of the people” That was General Curis from her left. His outburst caused the entirety of the right side of the tent to start angrily shouting at the left which caused the remaining people on the left to shout back.

“GENTLEMEN!!!!” Diana roared and clashed her gauntlets together generating a sizable filed of force that got their attention.

“You will remain in this tent until you have negotiated a compromise” Diana warned.

“Go to hell whore” One of the advisers for the General screamed.

“For once I agree. Go to hell” an adviser from the President.

“I have been….. I can tell you one thing. I will make sure that what you experience will pale in comparison if you don’t behave”

She noted with some satisfaction that some of the people on both sides paled at her threat. Unfortunately it didn’t seem to affect the two leaders much. They glared daggers at each other from across the table.

“My offer is simple. Stop the war, have elections that will be overseen by an international force. You both may run if you wish but I would suggest otherwise. If you do not agree to this I will make sure that every single time you take up arms against each other I will be there and I will not be happy” Diana warned.

Her ultimatum was barely out of her mouth when the tent flap behind her flapped open and in strode Savage with four of his cloaked advisers and two of his nude and collared servants. They must be paid very well Diana thought to willingly come into a war camp like that. Diana looked at the two of them and noticed that they did indeed seemed to be afraid but kept up their pace and they were surrounded now by an advancing unit of Savage’s personal guard.

“Good fellows” Savage greeted them.

“King Savage” They both echoed in unison and then stared at each other.

“I felt it time to meet all together” Savage said. Walking past Diana he gave her a slight smile and continued towards the middle of the table. When arrived an adviser appeared with a chair. He sat and regarded the two opposing sides.

“You are getting far to close to my borders and taxing my patience gentlemen” Savage said calmly but there was an undertone of chiding.

“We have no wish to anger our neighbor” General Curis immediately said.

“Nor do I” the President chimed in right away.

“Excellent. Then I purpose this. A ceasefire while negotiations are being done” Savage offered.

“Sounds reasonable” The President nodded.

“I agree” The General confirmed.

Diana fumed. It was no different then what she had been suggesting but clearly they both felt beholden to Savage or merely afraid.

“Excellent. Then I invite you both to my castle for a banquet and some more talk” Savage rose from the table and turned to head out. Walking back towards her he stopped.

“That was free Princess. I will require some entertainment to make sure that they remain on the straight and narrow” Savage smiled at her. Diana wanted to wipe the smile from his face but the thought of the strings on the map and how it all went back to him stopped her. Fate and indeed the Fates themselves seemed to be conspiring against her.

“What form of entertainment?” Diana asked through gritted teeth.

“Come to the castle tonight. I will explain what I want” Savage moved away before she could talk.

“I’ll be there” Diana said through her teeth again.

The castle was a hive of activity as she approached from on high tonight. There were cars and limos and all sorts of people at the front. Diana did not care for any of that. She eyed the courtyard next to the bedroom were she had changed before and landed. She had no change of clothing tonight. Wonder Woman landed in her full costume and opened.

“I don’t blame you for avoiding all that nonsense outside” the voice was Savage’s. He emerged from a doorway as always carrying a glass of wine.

“I’m not here for your banquet anyways Savage”

“I could say if I wanted to that that would make me entertained to see you there” Savage smiled and Diana inwardly wondered if that was what he had meant all along.

“But perhaps another time. No tonight will be boorish and tedious enough and somehow I think if I tried to interject my own brand of entertainment in the area you would follow through with your threat to level the mountain”

“Smart” Diana crossed her arms in front of her and eyed the man.

“No, what I have planned is simple and can be done quickly enough between us two” Savage smiled and took a sip of wine.

“Be careful what you say next Savage” Diana warned not liking the intimacy between the two and something in between his words.

“I will of course my dear Princess. I simply want to hear you recite this” Savage reached into his suit jacket and pulled out a familiar stack of papers.

“How many of those do you have Savage?” Diana asked

“As many as needed my dear”

“So all you want is for me to read some of this to you?” Diana asked.

“I would prefer the whole thing but I am a King and my time is not unlimited” Savage smiled. He reached forward with the stack of papers and gave them to her.

She took them in her hand and eyed the man. Every part of her wanted to punch him to the moon but she had to be cautious and diplomatic.

“Fine” She steadied herself and looked at the page.

“Slavery Contract. Wonder Woman, Princess Diana now and forever more to be named slave, slut, whore, cunt or whatever else her Master desires. To be referred to as slave on this contract agrees to become the owned property of King Vandal Savage…..” Diana started through gritted teeth.

“Music to my ears. Please continue” Savage prodded.

“….. Provisions of Contract. Number one. Slave agrees to obey to the best of her ability, and to devote herself entirely to the pleasure and desires of Master. Slave also renounces all rights to her own pleasure, comfort, or gratification except insofar as permitted bu Master….. you realize this is not legally binding” Diana stopped.

“Legal in a monarchy is what the monarch decrees my dear” It was a simple answer and all to true Diana knew being a Princess herself. She gave that point a nod in agreement and turned back tot he papers.

“Number two. Slave agrees at all times to make her body readily available to Master for his use. Slave will have hair washed and brushed in the style Master prefers at all times. Slave agrees to wear any and all clothing Master picks….” Diana looked up from the paper with pleading eyes asking to not read anymore.

“I like the next one” Savage gave his answer to her unspoken question. Diana heaved a sigh and looked back down.

“Number three. Slave agrees to address Master as Sir or Master unless otherwise directed. Slave agrees to speak respectfully to Master at all times. Master may address slave in any way he chooses” Diana finished.

“Kind of the same as the heading statement” Diana couldn’t resist a dig.

“Yes, speaks to how important it is” Savage replied.

Savage was nodding that she should continue when an adviser in a cloak appeared nearby.

“My lord there is a problem”

“Ah yes. Forever needed. This has been lovely my dear. Consider myself momentarily entertained” Savage laughed and was ushered away.

Diana was once again left with a copy of the contract in her hand. She threw it down tot he ground and took to the sky. She couldn’t help but notice that the front of the castle had become even more congested. Thankful she did not have to make an appearance Diana took off towards the camp. Flying through the air was always a perfect solution to just think and she found herself thinking about the manipulations at play all around her. She knew it would be wiser for her to wash her hands of the situation and allow it all to just play out but she could not and would not leave all those people in the camp that she was rapidly approaching be left to the care of such evil people. The map of strings played through her mind and the Fates telling her that even her father had thought the collar might be needed. Resolving to see this through to whatever end Diana descended into the camp. After a quick check around to make sure all was well she retired to her own tent.

Sitting in her tent with a reading light she grabbed one of the copies of the contract that she had been given. Turning it in her hands she was annoyed that she had even read a little bit of the vile thing and to have done so out loud to that man was somehow even worse. Clearly he wanted her as his slave and that was something that he seemed to be engineering a world war to obtain. She was sure that he would know that Hephaestus had forged into that collar the hundred year break off time. Savage was quite sure that when she put it on that she would be his forever. To her though and he even she had to admit probably to him. One hundred years was nothing in the lifespan of an immortal. A lot can happen but it is no more then an eye blink. She fell asleep with the contract in her hands.

The next day Diana decided to go back to the castle to see if there had been any breakthroughs at the banquet. She noticed as she flew in that there were still slightly more activity around the castle then previously. Presumably she thought the party had lasted well into the night. The main courtyard was still relatively quiet so she landed there and entered the main castle. She was greeted by a number of cloaked advisers who seemed more then happy to usher her into the main throne room. The heavy wooden doors opened into the room. In front of Diana as she made her way into the room was Savage as always on his throne with a glass of wine. To her left was General Curis and the President and their respective entourage around a small table. Arguing and blustering but generally in good behavior. Continuing past them she approached Savage on his throne.

“Good Morning King Savage” Diana said as pleasantly as she could manage.

“Morning Princess. What can I do for you today?”

“I was wondering if any progress had been made last night but I see at least they are still talking into the morning” Diana nodded towards the group of fierce enemies.

“Yes well as boring as it may be I must help them settle their differences so that my own people do not become embroiled in their conflict” Savage waved at them dismissively with his wine glass.

“Your good work here will not be forgotten” Diana half bowed and began to turn to leave.

“I find myself bored Princess and poorly entertained” Savage warned from the throne.

Diana stopped mid turn. Gritted her teeth and turned back towards him.

“How may I help?” Diana offered. She cringed inside.

“I can read more of that contract if you wish” Diana continued.

He smiled and looked her up and down.

“Perhaps another time. I think I can think of something else for now”

Diana didn’t like the unknown in that equation. Looking at the man his smugness seemed to be a little more then usual. Over her shoulder she could tell that the two groups had stopped bickering and were paying attention to their little exchange. Savage had like all things in this region manipulated it to his amusement. He motioned for her to come closer. Clearly aware that the two groups eavesdropping as well. Diana approached the throne. Ascended the two stairs and stood directly before him so that they could not be heard.

“They worry about your presence in the area. Your show of force did nothing to dissuade them. If anything it entrenched them more” Savage said. Diana had seen such things before but had never let it deter her.

“So?” She stated simply.

“I feel we can negate that and I can have some fun at the same time” Savage said in an almost conspiratorial tone.

“What do you purpose?” Diana was wary but she was done the rabbit hole so to speak.

“Two things. One of which I know you will do anyways. The first and the one I know you would help out on anyways is. In the northeast region of my country we have a lot of land that would make for great farmland if we could just get some more water to it. My engineers and I have plans to damn a local river and use the reservoir for irrigation. It occurs to me that you could with all your talents significantly speed up the project in just a day” Savage explained.

It wasn’t something she wasn’t used to doing. Diana had in her role as Wonder Woman completed the task very often and successfully multiple times. This indeed in her mind was a no brainier and not something she would have said no to anyways which made her think what the second thing could possibly be.

“You know I will do that. What is the second?” Diana answered.

“The second is a little more uncomfortable I am afraid but it will ease their minds. It occurs to me that they would be put at ease if you told them that you were not actively supporting anyone including either of them to be the leader of their nation”

“I have done so previously” Diana eyed Savage.

“Yes but under the power of your own lasso?” Savage spoke plainly and with a degree of nimbleness to empathize his point.

Diana fingered her lasso of truth on her hip and thought about it. Putting the lasso around herself was not unheard of, she had done it multiple times before to confront awful truths. The experience was painful and personal. Not one she would tend to show to others but the question was not one to illicit those types of emotions. It would be humiliating she thought to be ensnared by her lasso in front of them but it would be for the best.

“Only if I hold the lasso” Diana said.

“I am afraid they will think you have someway to override it’s power. They are familiar enough with it but all too accustomed to cheats as that is what they would do”

“And you” Diana countered.

“Hahaha quite right but I fear a degree of trust is needed. I will hold the lasso and ask one question”

He was right she thought. Trust was needed and they would indeed think she knew a way to lie to her own lasso.

“Agreed” She finished.

Savage rose from the throne and without anymore speech he walked down the stairs with Diana following towards the two groups gathered around a table. They had resumed their own conversations and bickering among the two groups. They hushed as the pair approached.

“My friends. I have heard your concerns regarding our resident Amazon here and have come up with an answer to at least set those fears aside” Savage gestured behind her to where Diana was now just joining him to stand side by side in front of them all. She picked the lasso from her hip which caused most of them to stir and tense even the two leaders she noticed. Of course she mused they would stand most to lose by being forced to tell the truth as so often men who vied for power did. Placing it in her hand she handed it to Savage. The groups actually gasped at that and Diana smiled.

“We are all familiar with the power of this lasso. I myself have been ensnared by it many times. It is quite an experience let me tell you….” Savaged smiled as he began to unfurl it.

“…. it forces the person so ensnared to tell the truth and since you wont accept hers or my own statements that she does not have a dog in this fight except for the people. Wonder Woman has agreed to let me so encircle her in her lasso so that I may ask her one time if she supports anyone for the leadership of your great nation” Savage explained. Taking the lasso and gently with almost a reverence placing it around Diana’s wrist.

“Who cares about that, use it to enslave the bitch” The General called.

Diana with her free hand quickly removed her sword and aimed it at the table.

“You will find that not a great idea” She warned.

“Yes quite so” Savage interposed himself between the table and the sword.

“Are we agreed that this will ease your minds” He eyed the rest of the table lingering on the two leaders.

“Yes” The President said.

“Agreed” The General said shortly after.

“Excellent. Then Wonder Woman I ask you. Do you have a vested interest in who wins this war and leads their nation?”

“No” Diana answered truthfully and honestly. Before she could take the lasso from Savage’s hands though he asked one more question.

“Will you directly involve yourself in their leadership race if there was to be a democratic election?”

It was beyond the scope of what they had agreed to but Diana could see the reason for asking it. Asking if she would tip the scales any to either of their favor.

“No” She answered and then angrily eyed the King.

“You see gentlemen. She is here as she has always said to simply help your people caught up in your struggles” Savage quickly unloosed the lasso from Diana’s wrist and handed the lasso back to her.

“Satisfied?” Wonder Woman asked.

Both parties nodded their heads.

“Fantastic. Now my dear Princess I think you have something else to help me with” Savage turned and regarded her. Diana nodded and walked out of the throne room and into the courtyard.

Diana spent a day and more at the dam. By the end of it they were probably about a week or so away from getting it fully operational. Flying back into the refugee camp she did a quick check around to make sure all was well again and then retired to her tent. When she opened the flap to her tent there stood Savage.

“What are you doing here?” She asked.

“I came to give you news and found that you were still helping up north. I appreciate that so I decided to stick around until you were home”

“What kind of news?”

“They agreed that they will submit to an election but only if it’s administered by me….. well my nation with of course the help of the international community” Savage spread his arms wide.

“That’s great” Diana exclaimed.

“Yes but I have not yet accepted” Savage smiled. From somewhere he produced a glass of wine.

“Why not?” As if she had to ask Diana thought.

“It promises to be quite a bore”

“What do you want?” Diana decided to get through all the preamble.

“Well I want you to wear the collar for me in the end. One thing at a time though” Savage sneered at her. Diana’s cheeks flared red and once more she had to fight to stop herself from tearing him to pieces.

“Can’t help you there” Diana managed to say as politely as possible.

“No, but perhaps today we can just have you make one of those provisions possible”

“Provisions?” Diana asked.

Savage reached down to the floor. He picked up a stack of papers that they both knew what they were. The slavery contract.

“Not signing that either” Diana declared.

“No but choose a provision and make that true” Savage answered.

“One?” Diana asked skeptically.

“Yes and I choose”

“No”

“Ha I had to try. Random then between the three you sweetly read to me before” Savage offered.

Diana looked at him and imagined what would happen if she literally did punch him out of the atmosphere. The map of strings played over in her mind. He controlled all and she was sure he was coming around to the conclusion that she knew that as well. He was pushing more and more and she had no choice to give him more while trying to avoid that collar and get everything untangled so she could leave him be.

Picking up three blank pieces of paper Savage wrote a one, two and three on the separate pages. Handing them to her he stepped back.

“I’ll close my eyes. You shuffle them and lay them out before you. With my eyes closed I’ll pick one. I trust that you wont pull a switch on me”

“Use your tie as a blindfold” Diana said.

“Agreed?”

Diana heaved a sigh. All three were repulsive but there was no other way at the moment. Here in her tent in the refugee camp something very bad was about to happen to an Amazonian Princess.

“Agreed”

“Excellent” Savage exclaimed. He took his tie off and wrapped it around his eyes and sat down on the ground. Diana shuffled the papers and laid them out before him.

“Ready when you are”

Savage reached out and hovered his hands over the three pages. Like a blind man trying to find a drink he reached down and thumbed the edges of the paper.

“Just making sure I know where they are” Savage smiled.

“It’s not exactly the hardest decision you’ll make Savage. Get it over with” Diana declared.

“Just enjoying the moment my dear” Savage responded. Little did she know that he could see right through the blindfold and say the opportunity he and all his friends had been waiting for. He took a hold of the paper on the left most side of the three and took off his blindfold. Diana took it in her hands and looked at the number and then down to the slavery contract. It was provision number one.

“Oh how excellent. Read that back to me”

Diana glared daggers at him but looked at the contract and read out the clause.

“Slave agrees to obey to the best of her ability, and to devote herself entirely to the pleasure and desires of Master. Slave also renounces all rights to her own pleasure, comfort, or gratification except insofar as permitted by Master” For the first time in front of someone of his ilk Diana felt like she could cry.

“Oh I think I would have been happy with any of them but that is quite a good one and leaves for a lot of room for interpretation” Savage smiled.

“Yes it does” Diana managed to say without breaking down in tears.

“You know what would please me and give me pleasure. Not to mention quench an amazing desire?” Savage asked.

“What?”

“My desire and my pleasure would be endless if you wore that collar” Savage got to the point that Diana knew was coming. She knew it was a chance and should have done a slight of hand to change the provisions but she was far to honest for her own good in this regard.

“I know you have manipulated the entire area into war Savage” Diana accused.

“I know. I also know that you are aware that I have all angles covered. I can initiate a large war or I can have it calmed down. I’ll admit before you arrived in the area I was going to be more content with the wider war but I think we both would agree. You as my slave for eternity will give me much more entertainment and save so many lives. Not to mention make some our our more mutual friends happy.” Savage had his glass of wine in his hand again somehow and swirled it around before taking a drink.

That confirmed at least that Savage was unaware that the collar had a one hundred year unlocking mechanism. She allowed a partial smile to show. At least that was some sort of gift. This was the moment, the Fates and her own father had seen this possibility. The map stuck out in her mind. One hundred years. All her friends would be gone. The many debasements and humiliations that this man would have her do will forever leave a mark on her soul.

“I am not signing a contract” Diana stated.

“I am sure with the collar on the contract become less important. As long as you give your word to be mine” Savage smiled.

“Fine” Diana stated quickly and took her eyes away from him.

“Fine what?” Savage clearly knew what she meant but wanted to hear her say it.

“I’ll allow you to collar me” Diana confirmed.

“Which would make you what?” Savage continued to prod.

“It would make me your slave” Diana brought her eyes back to him and once more if she had heat vision she would have eviscerated him.

“I suppose you have it on you?” Diana asked.

Savage for once seemed disappointed at that.

“No I don’t. Such a rare and valuable artifact it was not going to be removed from the castle. I think I can give you a day or so here to wrap up and leave people in charge. I am sure you have fine associates here that you know can do the job. Once that is done you can join me at the castle”

“You will allow them to remain?”

“The refugees? Of course but you will find within a week they can return home. I give you my promise as well they well be looked after beyond that as well Princess. After all I owe them quite a lot now” Savage seemed to be leering more over her body now and more openly which was upsetting but she had agreed.

“I thank you for that at least” Diana responded.

“I think you should start calling me Master” Savage ventured while he took another sip.

The rage boiled over her but she let it wash away.

“Yes Master”

“Sounds so beautiful from your lips” Savage took another sip.

“I would like a demonstration of your obedience” Savage continued.

“I will tell you right now I will serve you but I will not fight for you no matter the consequences”

“I would never have you fight for me my dear. Perhaps protect me but I will not have you as my personal hit man. I have far more fun uses in store for you. A demonstration of your obedience can be anything you desire” Savage spoke.

Diana thought about it for a moment. Savage was clearly enjoying himself and taking great pleasure in her own discomfort. She could think of nothing more discomforting to her then one thing that he would absolutely love. In her own tent she began to strip herself out of her Wonder Woman armor. First the breastplate that exposed her chest to him for the first of probably many times she thought. Then her skirt and undergarments. Standing before him in just her tiara, gauntlets and boots she exposed herself to him.

Savage was transfixed by the image in front of him. Diana, Wonder Woman Princess of the Amazons stood naked before him. Truly the personification of beauty her body was spectacular. In order to hide his own shame he had to subtly adjust himself. Her breasts were as large as he would have expected but were firm and somehow proportional to her body. Her body which obviously continued great strength was womanly and toned. The perfect specimen he thought. Looking at the greatest prize. Her pussy was tight and invitingly close to her body. A trim pubic mound drew his attention.

Diana looked at the speechless King before her. Glad that she seemed to have satisfied him she stood looking at him until he regained a sense of composure.

“Quite speechless my dear” Savage managed to say.

“Nudity among my people is not uncommon but as I am sure you are aware like many nudity to our enemies is a humiliation many of my sisters would rather die by their own spear then to willingly allow this” Diana explained.

“I am not your enemy. I am your Master” Savage declared. Finally more of himself he took a sip of wine and advanced on her.

“Yes Master. Sorry I was just trying to explain” Diana felt like she had to apologize.

“That is quite fine” Savage was so close now Diana could smell the wine both on his breath and in the glass. He reached out, his free hand inches from her breast.

“You are mine now” He confirmed this statement with his hand firmly gripping a hold of her right breast. He began to play with her breast with all the subtlety of a teenager. He looked into her eyes. She saw nothing but lust and the face of a supremely happy man. His lips still had wine on them from his last sip when he brought them to hers. Diana had to force herself from throwing him away. She knew what he was doing. Claiming his new possession and she had no right not interfere now. Tasting the wine she thought how terrible it was in comparison to the wines of her homeland. Wine she will not taste for quite sometime now she realized. His tongue dug deep into her mouth and explored. She couldn’t help but return his attention with his tongue with her own. Diana would never be accused of being without love and though this was far from it. To him it was the ultimate act of his love for conquering. He broke his kiss with her and stepped back but never taking his hand away from her chest. Now skillfully playing with a nipple.

“Just because I have agreed does not mean I will willingly do everything….. Master” Diana warned.

Savage took the opportunity to twist her nipple in his fingers causing a slight ripple of pain to go through her. Diana didn’t think she had ever experienced pain quite like that before. It came in a flash and left a heat in her body that she knew to be arousal but immediately discounted.

“I think when the collar is on you will feel differently” Savage warned but pulled his hand from her nipple with almost a reverence in his eyes.

“No matter your beauty though and your new station I will not have our first time enjoying our new relationship in a tent. Patience is the friend of the immortal. I will give you that time to get your affairs here in order. Then I will expect you to present yourself at the palace. I trust you can work out the repercussions if you do not” Savage took a final sip of his wine and walked out of the tent.

“What have I done?” Diana muttered to herself. When her hearing caught that Savage was long gone she allowed herself to feel. Placing her head in her hands she cried.

“I hope I have made the right choice” Diana mused. Wiping tears from her cheeks and eyes she set her jaw. Placed a robe on and went to bed.

Over the next couple days the contact between her and Savage was minimal and mostly done in the camp. She was happy to see that the fighting had stopped and already around the camp there was an optimism that the people will soon be able to go home. Diana had let it be known that she was leaving shortly now that she was certain that the problems would be solved humanely and swiftly. Course she only had Savage’s word on that but the signs were positive and she was also sure he would not risk upsetting her at this moment. If he were to double cross her at any point with regards their agreement they both knew she would not honor the deal and would soon with great relish bring her wrath down on all involved. The time came and it was time for her to make her way to Savage and her new life.

She flew there in her full Wonder Woman costume. She noticed once more that the main courtyard was not deserted nor was it a blaze with activity. Opting to land in the main courtyard she as greeted by some of the cloaked advisers. If they knew what she was there for and that she would be staying they did not let on. Diana as always was a master of body language and discovering truths. The advisers seemed to be ill informed or very well trained. Escorted into the throne room she noticed that as always Savage sat impeccably dressed on his throne. In the throne room proper before her were the companies of the General and President. Diana didn’t think much of it. Thinking mainly they were still there negotiating the peace process. She approached a smiling and gleeful Savage.

“The beautiful and Wondrous Wonder Woman. Princess Diana” Savage declared rising from his throne with a booming voice meant to capture the entire attention of the assemblage. Diana could see from the behind the throne a door opened with one of his nude and collared servants emerging from it and walking towards the throne with a familiar brief case. Realizing that he wanted a show, Diana would walk into this farce with dignity. She raised her head high and walked to the bottom of the throne.

“That will be the last time you hear that. How does that feel?” Savage mocked.

“Humbling” Diana admitted.

Savage walked down the steps to her. He took her all in.

“Lovely as ever slave” He whispered.

“Thank you Master” Diana equally whispered back.

“Lets give them a bit of a taste shall we? Put them at ease” Savage remarked under his breath.

Just as he finished the servant with the brief case arrived. This again was a completely different woman. No less beautiful then the others. She was shorter then rest but with long brunette hair that fell almost to her ass. Beautiful green eyes and a fantastic body. Diana had to admit she was a gorgeous woman. The servant handed Savage the brief case. He ascended the stairs back to his throne and once more called for everyone in the room to look. Though none had taken their eyes away from whatever was going on. He opened the brief case on the side arm of his throne. Careful not to show the contents to anyone he turned it away from the majority of the room. The servant girl was already on her way out. He reached in and pulled out the collar. Diana was sure she was the only who could see what was in there. He placed it behind the throne and threw some sort of blanket over it. Clearly it wanted it to be a surprise.

“As one artifact is about to get used I need to replace it in my collection” Savage announced.

Diana could think of a few things where this could go and none of them was great.

“Give me your lasso” Savage commanded. The whole room gasped and a silence took over the area. Diana could feel their glares even more on her back. Diana was determined to do this with dignity but there was a limit. Handing over such a treasured object and symbol was humiliating. She took her lasso from her girdle and with gasps and awes she handed it to Savage who placed it in the brief case still resting on the throne arm. He kept it open and turned towards her again.

“Your sword” Savage placed his hand in front like he was asking for the candy from a little kid.

Diana seethed but reached behind her and unsheathed her sword. Pulling it out and in front of her she gripped it in both hands. She was so close right there she could cleave him in two. Immortal or not he would need sometime to recover from such a strike. The rest of the people in the throne room knew this to. Savage only smiled knowing quite clearly the only reaction he was going to get from her. Diana held it in her hands in a classic grip. Remembering the feel of it in her hands before turning it around and placing it across her palms. She offered it to him with a slight bow to more gasps in the room. Savage took the sword from her and placed it by the side of the throne. Now without her arms save her bracers she knew what was coming next and began to almost take them off before he even asked for it. He did in fact order her to remove them and to more gasps and astonished noises she handed them to her. They had the whole room in their hands now. Both sides of that horrible war bonded by the view of the most powerful woman in the world handing over her most prized possessions to a man she viewed as an enemy.

“Remove your clothes slave” Savage announced so that all could hear it. Diana cringed but she knew in the back of her mind this was where it was going. She looked at him still standing by the throne with the brief case open. He had just placed her bracers into it as he made his declaration.

Slave, she thought. She had agreed to it but the thought of being called that or worse was unbearable to her. Bristling at the name she hesitated for a moment before he eyed her with more determination then she had yet seen from him. Taking in a huge breath of air she relented to his command and stare. Reaching behind she removed her breastplate. Making sure she was facing forward so that all anyone else besides a couple of cloaked advisers behind the throne could see was her bare back. Savage was easily within reach and she knew what he wanted. He was going to add her entire costume and weapons to his collection. She had no choice now. She handed the breast plate to her new Master. Next she removed her skirt and underwear. Conscious that she was now clad in only her boots and tiara in front of a host of vile people she took a little solace in the fact that she had yet to truly face them. Behind her though the room took in her shapely behind. Among the two parties of bitter enemies there were more then a few of them that had to adjust themselves to make sure their erections were not shown. Diana could see that Savage was clearly excited, not just emotionally but she could see that he was not making any effort now to hide his own arousal. Being nude again in front of Savage was enough to revolt her but seeing his hard cock bulging through his pants was enough to make her vomit. Especially when she considered the other acts that were surely to come.

“Kneel slave” Savage commanded. Diana hesitated for a brief second before she lowered herself to her knees before him. He reached behind the throne and picked up the collar. Making a scene he showed it to all in the room.

“Wonder Woman is no more” Savage opened the collar and walked towards her. Diana could see only him and only the lower half of him which was still visibly hard. The victorious King held the collar in one hand and took a hold of her hair in the other. Brushing it to the side to get a better view and angle on her neck he leaned over her. With the open collar he slipped it over her neck. This was the moment Diana thought. There was no turning back and she had no idea how the collar would effect her. She knew how Hephaestus wanted the collars to work originally but this one was forged later. The collar was opned from the back with a hinge. Being close to it again Diana could see a small ring at the front for a leash and chains. Savage held the pin for the hinge in the same hand as the collar. Which was causing him a slight concern as he found hold her hair, the collar and the pin a little cumbersome. He took the collar briefly away and raised himself back up to his full height. Placing the pin in his pocket he then brought the collar back down to her neck. This close again to it Diana could feel the energy coursing through it and braced herself for anything that might happen once it touched her and inevitably once it was locked around her throat. With a reverence Savage made sure that the front was clearly at the front and then placed it. The moment her skin contacted the godly metal she felt a surge of arousal go through that caused her breathing to go up and her heart rate to spike.

“Gods” She murmured. Only Savage could hear it. Diana wasn’t sure if he knew if that was a silent prayer for help or a reaction to the collar touching her skin. He made sure all strands of her hair were out of the way and then reached into his pocket and produced the pin for the hinge at the back to close it. It seemed like they were the ony two people in the world at the moment. Diana struggled with her breathing as she tried to adjust to whatever the collar was doing to her. She could feel herself getting hotter and horny by the moment and wondered if there was a plateau to it or would she always be doomed now to just be overly sexed. The pin slid into the hinge closing it behind. There was a flash of white light around the two of them. Diana could see nothing in the room except for herself and him. Enveloped by the light she could feel the collar changing. Molding itself to her neck, tightening in areas and loosening in others for the perfect fit. She felt it might have even grown a little in size as well. Inside that white light she felt her strength drained away. Weak and horny was all that she could use to describe about herself. Kneeling before Savage he took in the light around them as well. Noticing how the collar shifted and changed to form a more perfect seal with it’s wearer. Once the collar was done changing Savage could feel a tingle in his right palm. It itched like a furious bite of some kind. He thought how in earth in this almost heavenly light could such a thing be happening as for him to just start itching. The thought was barely formed in his head when from his palm chains shot forth. He noticed from the ring on Diana’s collar more chains shot forward. One chain shot towards the chain emanating from his palm. They met in a soft clash and melted together to form one chain. His eyes temporarily focused on that he did not notice that a chain now appeared running down from her collar between her breasts to just above her naval into a ring that had three chains running out from there. One to each side and one continuing downwards. The chains to the sides went along her arms to her wrists were black restraints were forming around them. Similar to her new collar they had gold etched framing about a half inch wide all around the restraint. Appearing to be made of the same material. The downward chain from her navel traveled to her kneeling knees and then as if she was floating in air the chain was seen running down her legs that should have been hidden by the floor. It ended in another ring at her feet that had two chains going from each side to her ankles. So close together there seemed to be a gathering of chains there before ankle restraints in black and gold appeared and connected to the chain. The chains under her legs seemed to disappear as they no longer seemed to be floating. Still in the white light Diana took notice of what her people called the shadow chains attaching themselves to her body. No less indestructible then the collar itself these chains were at the direct and only control of her Master. He could do virtually anything with them. There was no locks to be picked. Everything was sealed on her but with a mental note he could have them disappear along with the restraints. Just as quickly though he could have them reappear. This was why the Amazons called them shadow chains, because they could hide in the shadow but your restraint was always on. Vaguely happy that the collaring should have been over Diana couldn't help but notice that the light of the gods was not receding. She felt an itch in her nipples. Looking down she knew they were hard from the arousal but this was something more then that. A sudden intake of pain and breath as well as a flash of light around both of her nipples. When those flashes disappeared she discovered she now had a black ring with gold accents in each nipple. With each movement they seemed to bring even more sexual thrill through her body. Hephaestus you mad evil fool, Diana screamed in her thoughts. The appearance of the rings in her nipples brought an even wider smile to Savage as he noticed them and the look on her face when she even slightly moved told him that they were causing a great deal amount of pleasure.

The white light around them began to fade and soon they were back in the throne room. It felt like hours had passed but the looks from everyone around led them both now it was more like moments had passed. Still facing away from the rest of the room Diana could only see the faces of a couple of cloaked advisers. Even there hard fought mastery of their expressions was betraying them as they eyed her with lust, wonder and gleeful victory at her current state. Savage regained his compusre and reached down to cup her chin.

“What an exhilarating experience” He conceded. Just the mere touch of his hand on her chin sent waves of pleasure through her body. So enchanted by the collar she would always feel this way from his touch now she knew. The movement of bringing her chin up caused her breasts to wing which caused the new rings to move and cause more ripples of pleasure through herself. Diana didn’t have a chance to fully take it all in as he reached down and kissed her. In front of everyone though they could not see the front it was clear that he was kissing her. Diana tried to fight back the waves of pleasure from his lips and his hand on her chin but found all her strength and determination was failing her. She knew right there and then she was going to cum from a simple kiss in front of all of these wicked people. Her body staggered under his lips and when she thought she was about to cum it just held there. Diana was thankful that she was not cumming but wondered why and desperately more and more each moment why she could not cum. He would not be dissuaded though and continued to linger on her lips just bringing her closer and closer. More then she would have ever thought possible. Far more then she had needed to cum in the past and yet she could not. It was the collar she thought. He did not or had not expressed his order on whether she could or not and thus the collar was keeping her from it. It was a revolting development. Finally after mauling her mouth for an eternity he broke the kiss. With chain in hand he rose to his full height. Diana still kneeling noted the length of the leash was probably about six feet or so. Close but not to close, she knew that the chains could lengthen or shorten as desired by the leash holder. Savage had complete mastery of her body. She resolved to not give him her mind.

“Up” He ordered and tugged on her leash. Diana rose to her feet. The sound of the ringing chains echoing in the throne room. The chains were all black she saw now she had paid attention to them but hadn’t really noticed the collar. Savage tugged on the leash bringing her closer to him.

“We have quite an audience here slave”

“Yes we do….Master” Diana agreed.

“I think we should really put them at ease as to your new station in life”

Diana eyed him warily. Aware that she couldn’t really refuse a command at the moment in front of them all but not entirely liking the possibilities. Savage took her look in and smiled. He tugged on her leash prompting her to follow him. He walked past her forcing her to turn around and look at the entire room. All of the people had spread out over the entire throne room to get their own personal views of the spectacle that had just unfolded before them. Diana couldn’t help but blush as her own excitement waas still on edge and now being shown to all of these people in such a state. It was humiliating and shameful and she felt like she could cry. Savage tugged her over towards the table were they had sat at before and allowed all the others to come back into groups around the table.

“As you can see. She’s dealt with. My own personal slut now. Aren’t you slave?” Savage asked while tugging her beyond him so that she stood only a couple of feet from the congregated mass of men.

“Yes I am forever collared and chained to you now Master” Diana reminded herself he wanted a show and though they had delivered quite well so far she knew he wanted it to continue.

“How much for her??!!!” the General roared.

“For what General?” Savage smiled and asked.

“To own” The General confirmed. Diana squirmed a little. She was being discussed like she was a piece of property directly in front of. Something again she would have to get used to she thought.

“I am not even sure if the process is transferable…..” Savage mused. Inwardly Diana cringed at even the thought. To be willingly enslaved to such a creature was one thing to be sold off was another no matter how accepting she got of being thought of as a piece of property.

“Slave? Is it transferable” Savage asked tugging on her leash and forcing her to turn her head to regard him.

“According to legend the Hercules collar loses it’s power if the owner dies or gives up the ownership. Knowing the gods they would consider a sale, giving it up” Diana responded truthfully.

‘Ha… well there you have it gentlemen. She is well and truly bound to me. I am immortal as is she and I will not be giving up ownership” Savage declared. Amused at the answer.

“Then for a night” The President chimed in. Diana didn’t think she could shutter and shutter that hard but her entire body quivered in disgust. Visibly so that Savage tugged on her leash to gain her attention.

“I don’t think she likes that President” Savage sneered.

“I don’t care” The president stated.

Savage looked at his new property. Diana stood with her head half turned to regard him and the president. Garbed now in nothing but her chains she was the perfect picture of submission and he wanted to use that submission to it’s full effect.

“We can discuss that later” Savage offered and Diana shuttered again but knowing better then to speak up at the moment.

“You can’t just leave her here without giving us anything” One of the advisers for the General spoke up. Savage eyed him with a glare that made him shrink back a but but it seemed their lusts were beyond the ability for even Savage’s intimations to back them down. Others joined in.

“We have work to do here gentlemen and my new slave has not even been shown her new quarters yet. However if you wish….”

Savage took the leash jerking her back towards him. He started off towards the throne. He had her climb the stris to the throne.

“Kneel next to the throne” He ordered.

Diana did as instructed. Still feeling every eye on here as her chains crackled about it.

“Spread your legs” Diana looked up at him but his expression made it sure that he would not tolerate a rebuke at the moment. Clearly agitated from the group in the room he wanted to showcase his power. Diana nodded and spread her legs. Allowing all a look at her pussy. Still neatly trimmed but glistening in heat because of the collar. She didn’t quite know what to do with her hands. For a moment she wondered if she should assume the position that the servant had doen that day she had been introduced to the collar. Her thoughts and answer was given to her though.

“Play with yourself” Savage commanded. Again another look that would not tolerate any disobedience. Diana gasped though despite herself. He tugged on the leash to bring her head back up and eyes back into his.

“Now slave!” Savage roared.

Diana was allowed to lower her head and sighed.

“Yes Master”

Diana was not unaccustomed to self pleasure. It was not as taboo on her home island as it was in the wider world. What was taboo about it was doing it front of a crowd of warlords who she had only days before been chastising. The chains were a new variable to it but they allowed enough room. Taking her right hand she strted to just trace around her clit with her fingers. Trying to get an idea of the collars’ control over her. She was already so close to cumming but somehow was being prevented. Her fingers traced around her clit sending shivers of pleasure through her so much so that in her current state it would have erupted her into multiple orgasms but now all it did was keep her on edge. Helpless to it she moaned in displeasure. The crowd and Savage though took it as pleasure and all smiled. Her left hand went to her breasts and started to manipulate her nipples. Diana closed her eyes trying to get into a rhythm and trying her best to cum and override the collars’ hold on her.

Savage watched as the former Princess pleasured herself. A sight to behold her fingers were beginning to work their way into her pussy. Just a fingernails length or so at first but the moans coming from her he knew she would cum quickly. A thought then occurred to him that she wouldn’t unless he ordered it. He suspected that was his connection to the collar telling him that. How deliciously evil he thought and his smile broadened.

“Eyes open slave. I want you to look everyone in the eye” Savage ordered.

“Yes Master” Diana cringed at having to open her eyes. Thankfully she as little distance from where everyone was still gathered around the table. There was something deeply unsettling and even erotic about playing with herself while being watched. Meeting their stares made it even worse and hotter. Still she could not cum. Her eyes pleaded with Savage who simply smiled and sat next to her in his throne. The chain leash dangling over the arm of the throne. Savage held the leash in his hand. His other reached to the other side of the throne for a glass of wine. He picked it up and frowned.

“I am out of wine” He declared.

“That’s a shame” Diana managed to say while her fingers entered her pussy and others tweaked a nipple.

“Indeed” Savage choose to ignore it. He waved the glass in the air. Behind them a door was heard opening. Within moments a nude servant girl was on the side of the throne with a refill for her King. She locked eyes with Wonder Woman and she gasped.

“Is that?” the servant asked.

“Manners…. Yes the great Wonder Woman is now my personal whore” Savage shewed away the servant. Inwardly Diana cried. To be humiliated in front of men was becoming bearable until that point. Now she had been humiliated in front of a sister woman.

“Would you like to cum slave?” Savage asked

Diana didn’t want to give him the satisfaction of her voicing anything like that but she did nod.

“Say it” He demanded.

“No” She refused.

“You are mine now slave. You know as well as I that you cannot cum without my permission”

“Then I don’t” Diana answered petulantly.

Savage looked down at the kneeling Amazon. A thought occurred to him. If he could keep her from cumming could he not also make her cum.

“I command you to cum” Savage sneered. Diana had her finger in her pussy and thought how outlandish that sounded but the collar was warm and she was excited. The thought barely registered when she felt the orgasm overcome her.

“No…...” She screamed. Completely outraged that he had that kind of control. She felt it going through her body, the uncontrollable eruption that will be her first orgasm under his control.

“Please no...” She pleaded trying everything in her power to stop herself.

“Now slave” Savage commanded.

Diana looked at the smiling tyrant and heaved an emotional sigh. While she dealt with that her body was responding to the command. The orgasm fast came through her.

“OHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!” She screamed. So loud she was sure her own Gods would have heard it. The throne room fell quiet under her moaning and recovery. The true evil of the collar soon presented itself. Although she had orgasmed she had so much built up energy she could cum again but she had only been giving permission for the one. Savage pulled on the leash forcing her to raise herself somewhat from her knees but her hands still continued to play with her herself. She looked directly into his victorious and lust filled eyes.

“Again slave” His command was easily carried out and much quicker this time.

“OHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!” Diana screamed once more with no less passion or power then the last one.

“Yes my slut. You are mine” Savage loosened his hold on her leash. Allowing her to fall back tot eh floor on her knees. Still her hands continued to work on her body.

From across the room the other occupants continued to watch with amazed stares.

“That’s enough of the show today Gentlemen. You have some work to do” Savage declared from his throne.

Diana was glad that hopefully the command to stop debasing herself in front of all of these men woul dbe forthcoming. Savage tugged on her leash and Diana expected the order. She turned her head to look at him once more.

“These shadow chains. Seems more then just the chains”

“Yes...” Diana didn’t want to tell him everything. Feeling that she as going to be with him for quite sometime the least he could do was to learn on his own and not allow her to continue to contribute to her own humiliation.

“Seems to be a sort of telepathic bound between me and the chains. Quite fascinating. Tell me slave do you experience quite like it?” Savage asked.

Diana still playing with her own body and now without permission to cum couldn’t help but laugh at the scenario. Savage raised an eyebrow to her laugh but did not question. Trusting it was more to the absurdity of the situation then to his question.

“No Master…. I don’t have a link like that but I can feel the collars power on me. Like how I can not cum and have a general need to follow direction… not that I will always do it” Diana quickly said.

“Indeed, I think it’s more then chains and collars……. I can feel it in my mind you see slave. I think I can do many things with these chains” Savage said.

“I honestly wouldn’t know. They have never been used as I said before. So there is no history on them and Hephaestus is known to take artistic liberty” Diana pushed a finger into her pussy that would have caused her to scream in orgasm before but now simply did nothing more then cause her to feel closer and closer to the edge without any hop of the pleasurable release.

“Artisitic liberty….. truly?” Savage laughed while clearly looking at the finger that had just been pushed into her pussy.

“Yes Master” Diana would have begged for permission to cum at that moment but only through a sheer act of will she managed to sop herself from saying anything more.

“Such as what?” Savage asked.

“The nipple rings…. There is no history or recording that said the collar and chains would come with the rings” Diana breathlessly said.

“That explains your reaction. This forger is he friend or foe to you?” Savage questioned.

“Friend” Diana stated.

“Indeed? Even now being in the clutches of his workings?”

“Yes”

“Your loyalty is commendable. I am still convinced I can do more with them” Savage mused.

“We have time for you to figure it all out…. Master” Diana managed to say. While tweaking a nipple.

“HAHA yes I do” Savage pulled on her leash.

“Would you like to cum again my pet?”

“Yes” Diana answered once more honestly.

“Then ask for it” Savage dared her with his eyes to either humiliate herself or to deny him once more.

“I will not” Diana refused to play his game.

“Then you will not cum” Savage confused her for a moment before slackening the leash and turning away from her in his throne and taking a sip of wine. To her horror and debasement he then refused to look her in the eyes while she continued to play with herself. Across the hall the two warring parties began arguing with each other about something or somewhat. Savage placed the leash on the throne arm. The chain melted into the arm of the stone throne. Diana wasn’t aware of that trick either but clearly Savage was in congress with the collar as he had said and was learning things. He rose from the throne and walked towards the table leaving Diana on her knees continuously playing with herself. The King walked towards the table and hammered down with a fist. Diana couldn’t hear much but she got the tone. He was angry and was not having any thing to do with their antics. At least for this she was thankful but her entire body didn’t care about such matters now. All it cared for was pleasure and why it was being denied.

Four hours. Four hours she had spent knelt next to the stone throne while Savage would alternate between sitting on his throne, drinking wine and going to the table and beating some sense into the warring factions. Diana had not been able to cum once. She was tired and sore from her exertions but she could not stop. The power of the collar would have her going until the end of time if Savage so desired it. Worse was he had not said one more word or even looked her in the eyes for more then a moment to just confirm that she was still playing with herself and in desperate need of cumming. She knew how to stop it, but she refused to ask for permission to cum. Currently Savage sat in his throne with a freshly refilled glass of wine in his glass. Diana had lost track of the times the servants had come out to fill his glass and the amount of times she felt humiliated at having been viewed by a sister. From the corner of her eye she caught Savage looking down at her. For a longer stare then he had done in hours.

“You must need release pet” Savage teased.

“I am fine”

“Pride is an interesting thing is it not. I was under the impression that pride in an Amazon warrior is discouraged. I would expect more so in a Princess” Savage mused.

“It is true” Diana confirmed.

“So why not simply say what you want”

“It’s not pride….. Master….. it’s about control” Diana truthfully said.

“Ahhhh I see. You like fighting losing battles” Savage laughed.

Diana didn’t feel that needed to be dignified with a response but she knew that he was right. There was no way she was going to win this battle unless Zeus himself came crashing through the castle walls and released her from the collar.

“An eternal battle of wills….. I knew you would be entertaining slave” Savage rose from the throne. Once more the leash molding to the arm of the throne. He walked towards the still arguing party. Though less so in the past couple of hours Diana had to admit. Savage stood before the table as they spoke. Diana couldn’t make out anything that was being said but they all were nodding and answering questions with more nods and some shakes of the head. Finally with a nod he gestured with his hands. Cloaked advisers appeared from behind and began to usher the two parties out. Savage walked back to the throne. Taking the leash back in his hand he jerked her up from her position. Still with her hands roaming her body Diana was tired and sore from the constant pleasure with no release.

“Looks like we have an agreement in place slave. Happy?”

“mmmm yes Master’ Diana was not happy about her lack of release but beyond happy for an agreement. At least what she had come here for and sacrificed for was complete. All else now is just the payment.

“Good…. You may stop” Savage ordered.

Diana thankfully stopped playing with her body and heaved a sigh of relief.

“Thank you” It was an honest exclamation. He tugged once more on her leash and she got the hint she was allowed up from her knees for the first time in hours. Diana was glad to straighten her bones and muscles but was sure she could have done that for weeks if needed. Not that she wanted to test it.

“You have been very good so far my new slave. I bet you are eagerly awaiting our first coupling” Savage taunted. Diana was repulsed at the thought.

“It will come soon enough my dear. You are perfect and beautiful and even during all your action today you have barely broken a sweat but I will have my property pristine for when we mate” Savage pulled on her leash and brought her closer to him. Diana shivered at the thought. Savage caught it and smiled more broadly.

“You knew it was going to be a major part of your enslavement my dear…. If not the major part” Savage confirmed.

“I know” was all Diana could muster to say.

He pushed her away from him. With the leash firmly gripped in his hand he pulled her along with him as he walked. Behind the throne towards the doors the servants and advisers seemed to dock in and out of. There were three doors about ten feet apart from each other directly behind the throne. To the left she could see the door to the hallway she had used before. To her right was a single solid oak door that was the same as all the others but this had a large keyhole in it where the others didn’t. Savage turned towards this door.

He placed a giant almost over sized key that he produced from his pants pocket into the keyhole. The door swung open heavily into a dark stone hallway. This was much more dark then any of the other places Diana had thus far seen in the castle. The corridor was long and arched. The ceiling height was barely an inch above the door. They walked through the door into the corridor. There was nothing on the sides of the walls except the old gray stone that lined the castle. At the end was another large oak door. Diana walked behind Savage as the width was only enough for single file. They way he walked with her on leash though made it apparent that, that was the intended desire for anytime she was being led. ON her bare feet she noticed the cold was not cold like she would have thought of ad as she noted as it as in the throne room. Got a little warmer with each step they took towards the end of the hall. At the end door Diana noted that there was no key but some sort of interface pad on the wall next tot he door. It looked completely out of place, something so modern in an old fashioned castle stone corridor. It was at about chest level. Savage turned to it and tapped on the pad. It sprung to life and showed an image of a hand. He placed his hand on the pad, there was a tiny little sensor that seemed to be reading his palm print and then the pad went green. There was a click from the door and it slid open about an inch. With his free hand he closed the door keeping them in the hallway. He kept his hand on the pad until it started flashing green and red.

“Place your hand on the pad” He ordered.

Diana did as instructed and placed her hand there. The pad stopped alternatiing between green and red lights and now shined blue beneath her hand. She could feel some warmth on her palm as it read hers. After a time the pad turned green.

“Good” Savage had her remove her hand from the pad and he stood there for a moment.

“Just make sure it took” he explained and waited another moment before gesturing for her to place her hand back on the pad. The sensation of her palm being read began to happen and the pad turned green. The door clicked and opened slightly.

“Excellent. You now have access to your home” Savage gestured with both hands for her to pass him and open the door. Diana wasn’t sure what to expect but considering she was wearing chains and and collar she have expected to see cages, whips and other forms of torture devices in some sort of dungeon.

When she opened the door and stepped through the firs thing she noticed was the light. It was not natural but as close to a natural booming heavenly light as she had seen on earth. So beautiful it was it brought her eyes immediately up before she took anything else in. The room was large. Easily larger then the throne room and taller but the way the light beat off of certain things let her know it was not a natural area. Like it had been carved out of something. She remembered the castle was embedded into the surrounding mountain. When she took her eyes down wards she saw a large steaming hot spring flowing through the room from the left. Starting as a waterfall about six feet tall coming straight out of the mountain the water flowed in a small creek throughout the area with forming a pool in the back right corner. The creek steamed from the water, rocks that were naturally slopped along each side and green grass almost everywhere. There was a path that she now stood on that twisted and turned and bridged over the creek. If Diana didn’t know any better she would have thought she was at home. There were three structures. Well to call them structures would be a stretch she thought but they were clearly meant to house things. White stone Greek columns framed all four corners of the buildings. Framed in by small dry stoned brick walls. One of them was off by the end of the area by the pool and another by the waterfall, both about the same dimensions. The third one was in front of her just off to the right along the path that she could see took her to all buildings. This one was bigger and not because she was closest to it. The path bowed along the side of it before venturing off further into the… well grotto. Savage pushed passed her as she took it all in and with the lead he drew her forward into the chamber. The door closed behind them. They walked up a slight incline. The path under her feet was some sort of stone and rubber combination that was not warm but cool to her bare feet and comfortable. Walking up to the first structure Diana noticed that the stone and the coloumns seemed to have just had a fresh painting done. Come to think of it Diana thought while the creek and the greenary were clearly well situated and been there for a long time everythign else including the path seemed to have recently had an overhaul.

“Been preparing for me?” Diana asked.

“Not specifically for you but I knew what would fix my boredom” Savage said as he looked over his shoulder back to her.

They came to the bow in the path that seemed to stretch out and connect with the structure. It led to the enterence. It was a wide enternce with an archway. Savage tugged her in. The entrence led into a small hallway with arched walkways on either side and another archway at the end that seemed to go into a large marble and tiled area. Savage had her explore so she choose the archway on her right to walk through. She found inside a bed that looked like it was made entirely out of pillows and silk. Only about a foot or so off the ground Diana looked at it and found herself washed over by the need for something so comfortable and rest. Savage was right behind her and whipped the chain slightly in his hand in an effort to get her to go further in. She noticed that there wasn’t just one bed but three and room enough for more.

“What’s the meaning of this? I will not allow you to enslave anyone else” Diana warned.

Savage jerked the chain roughly. Causing her to turn around and tumble down before him.

“You will not allow?” Savage goaded.

“Yes” Diana would not back down from watching other woman being enslaved. She had chosen this, been manipulated into this and would not stand to see another taken.

“Interesting” Savage seemed to retreat into himself for a moment. As if he were talking to someone else. Diana didn’t get a chance to ponder this any further. An arch of white lightening stretched out from Savage’s hand that was holding the leash. It traveled fast down the leash towards her collar. Once it hit her collar it exploded along all the chains she now wore. Pain burst through her body in agonizing wave after wave until the lightening stopped from his hand. Diana convulsed on the ground feeling as if she had just been punched by Doomsday. Her breathing was ragged and her sight came in and out from the pain. Her mind, barely was able to focus. She knew that he did not have anything like that kind of power. He must have been talking to the collar in his mind again. Hephaestus you could be a cruel God she thought to herself. Such pain would render any of her sisters with grave injuries. Only by her own divinity did she survive past it. She coughed on the floor at Savage’s feet.

“I trust you will not be so unwavering in your tone next time” Savage’s gloating tone came from above. Diana coughed and tried to raise herself at least to her knees but found she lacked sufficient strength to do so at the moment.

“Quite an interesting piece of information imparted to me from the collar just now. I wager you were not aware of that particular feature either”

Diana still trying to recover. All she could do was shake her nod in acknowledgment of his statement.

“If I am gathering it correctly that was not the highest it can go either. Would you like to experience that?” Savage openly mocked her as she rolled onto her back gasping from breath. Diana shook her head no again.

“Good” Savage marveled at the sight of the chained woman on her back before him. He allowed her a few moments of recovery time and then jerked her up to her feet with the leash.

“As I was saying before your outburst. It was not originally planned for you. I think you may be enough to sate my needs but who knows. You don’t have a problem with that do you?” Savage teased her to see her reaction. Diana had to swallow her pride and knew another jolt like that and she would be dead. Her eyes pierced his but she shook her head.

“Fantastic. Now the beds may be removed but you may claim one now” Savage dropped the leash and it just kinda of melted into the air and disappeared from her collar. She was still chained in all other ways but the leash had vanished. It was the first time since she had been collared that it had faded away. She knew it could do that of course it was in the name shadow chains but to see it. It felt like she had lost something of herself. She didn’t want to dwell on that thought and turned towards the beds.

“I will leave you to it. I will summon you when I want you. Rest and recuperate my lovely pet. Explore, I will give you plenty of time. So that you may fully adjust to your new role before we….. take things up a notch as they say” Savage laughed and walked out of the room. Diana followed him out and saw that he was returning down the path towards the door. There was a pad there as well that scanned his palm and let him out. When he was gone and Diana had sure she had given him time enough to clear the corridor she ran down to the door and tried to open it with her palm. It declined three times and then on the fourth time a message appeared on the pad ‘You have not been asked for’. Frustrated, normally she would have been able to tear the door off or even through the mountain itself. Now with the collar on she was powerless.

The bed did seem really comfortable and she was tired from all of the events of the day. She walked back up to the structure and fell into the closest bed. Within seconds she was fast asleep.

Diana wasn’t sure if ti was the sound of her chains or the babbling water nearby that woke her up. She preferred to think it was the water. That was a happier thought. She pushed herself up on her new bed and looked around. The two other beds lay to her right. Behind her she could see some sort of dressing station complete with a walk in wardrobe and make up station. Not that she ever wore any. Raising from the bed she stretched out her muscles and felt the need for a nice hot bath. Exiting the bedroom fro lack of a better term she looked across the hall to the other door. She opened that and took a look around. Just seemed to be some sort of storage place were there were towels, creams and soaps. Not very large but when she thought about it. It couldn’t be. Because the entryway into the structure was not in the middle it was towards the end. She eyed the other archway at the end of the hallway. She saw tiles and marble and knew it to be a spa of some sort. Walking in she was rewarded to be right. There were pools of hot spring water. Steam coming off of them of them she dipped her toes into one of the pools. It was warm and so very pleasant to the touch. Her chains clattered along the marble steps before they submerged into the pool. The warmth of the water soothed her. She sat in the pool for close to an hour just letting it ease every single muscle and bone in her body. Her mind kept flashing to the future and what Savage clearly wanted to do with her. Mentally steeling herself for the inevitable she relaxed into the water. When she finally brought herself out of the water her body was relaxed and refreashed. The sleep and the water had rejuvenated her mind and spirit as well as her body. Even the sound of her chains on the marble did not deter her. She knew she had been forced and manipulated into this and knew it was fate for her to be here in these chains. Diana had never shrunk from fate and never yielded to battle. This was just another sort of battle. Grabbing a towel from that storage closet she dried herself off. Noticing that the chains were instantly dry the moment they were out of the water.

Deciding to explore her new home she walked out of the structure and headed towards the waterfall. There she went into the smaller structure that was there. It was full of more towels and empty selves. She sat by the waterfall for a time and just lost herself to the sound and smells. It was almost enough for her to forget she was collared, chained and the toy of a villain. She walked over a bridge and went to the other side of the cavern. There she noticed a small beach around the pool. In the far corner of the grotto there was one more door with a pad. She tried to exit again but was unable to. Sitting on the beach idly playing with her chains she found herself a little bored. The last structure had yet to be investigated. Diana went to the structure. Inside she found that it was full of excerise equipment. Everything she could possibly need to work up a sweat worthy of a Goddess. For the first tiem a smile came to her lips. Looking at a bike she had to avoid that because of her chains but some weight lifting could be done. Spending the next couple of hours in the gym she felt tried but refreshed, becomign more and more like herself even with the chains on her as a constant reminder. When she was done sweat poured from her. She exited the gym and jumped straight into the pool. Refreshing colol water somehow washed over her. She noticed then for the firs time there as no steam around the pool. It was being cooled somehow and she also wondered were the water ran off to. Swimming around the pool she discovered a grate that the water was going through. Looking through she could see that it just seemed to go back into the mountain proper. No escape that way she thought. Not that she could anyways with the chains on her. The swim after the workout was just what she wanted and needed. She found herself sunning herself as much as she could under these very close to real sunlight lights on the beach. Drifting in and out of sleep she found that she was actually relaxing and somewhat content.

“Hello slave” Diana’s eyes opened and found Savage hovering over her on the beach. She must have dosed off she thought. He wore an open white robe and looked very much as relaxed as she had felt until she laid eyes on him.

“Hello Master” Diana reluctantly said.

“Feeling relaxed and refreshed?” he asked.

“As much as I am able to at the moment……. Thank you” Diana replied.

“Good. When I originally built this castle I had this room made to grow all sorts of flowers and other things. When my mind began drifting towards more sexual conquests a few months ago I started to have this turned into a good approximation of a harem… or at least ones described wrongfully in western literature”

“It is very much out of a dream……. Feels almost like home…..” Diana wistfully said. Then she looked up at the ceiling and shook her chains in front of him.

“…. except for that and these” She laughed sarcastically at first and then wistfully towards the end.

“You’ll see your fair share of the sun my dear and as for your chains….. I think we can do without them for a moment” Savage stared at her. Diana felt a tingle aroudn her wrists and ankles and suddenly the restraints and the chains vanished, leaving only the collar. Something she was keenly aware they could do but he was proving to be quite a quick learner with the chains. In this regard she was happy. The chains had limited her movements enough that she felt the need to stretch out all her body below him on the sand. Spread eacgle on the sand she tensed and released every muscle and nerve in her body. Unaware that her display had made sure the robe the King wore had now come undone to the sight of his erect cock. Her eyes were closed as she took in the bliss. Finally when she opned them and brought herself to her feet before him she looked down at his uncovered state.

“So it’s time then” Diana asked.

“I have the patience as only an immortal can my dear but I find myself quickly losing it. I will have you” Savage declared.

Diana looked down, trying to avoid looking at his cock and sighed.

“I ask but one thing”

“I guarantee nothing but ask”

“Not here” Diana gracefully waved her hands about the entire cavern.

“If this place is to be a sanctuary I ask for it to be from that as well” Diana pleaded.

Savage looked into the eyes of the beautiful enslaved Amazon Princess and nodded.

“I can grant that” He snapped his fingers and the leash reappeared from her collar into his hand. With a jerk on the leash she fell in behind him as they walked to the other door that Diana had discovered earlier. It was closer and probably explained where he had come from. They were through the door and Diana noticed that there were two immediate choices in a very small stone hallway. A Door to the left and a door to the right. Both with palm imprint readers next tot them. Savage turned left, opened that door and they were soon ascended a narrow well lit spiral stone staircase. They climbed for a few minutes Diana wasn’t sure how far up but she was sure pretty close tot he tops of the castle. The door at the top was opened and they walked into a large residence. Immediately next to the door they had just come out of was a larger staircase and archway that was presumably for normal people Diana thought. The place was large. It looked to be Savage’s personal chambers. It had a large sitting area with multiple couches and tables. A fully stocked bar and an open terrace That he was guiding her towards now. Savage brought her out on the terrace and Diana was right to think they were at the top of the castle. The castle was built in to the mountain and they were at the top of the castle. Above her was still literally mountains of the mountain. The terrace itself was a crescent shaped and peered out seemingly over the entire country not just the castle and yards below and even the city below. It was a magnificent view she had to admit to herself. Still and calm the winds were a the moment she could take in a little mountain air and she felt serene once more in her sacrifice. Her body ached with the sexual need to please Savage because of that damned collar she thought but she was getting a better handle on how to control it. There was a railing about four feet high all around the end of the terrace. Savage walked to the middle and right to the railing. With the leash and Diana trailing behind he tugged them closer and she came to stand next to him on the terrace overlooking the country.

“Beautiful is it not?” Savage asked.

“It is” Diana agreed.

“I love to come out here and just take it all in. I have traveled everywhere in this world. Sometimes there truly is nothing like the first place you called home”

“I understand” Diana could certainly understand. Now thinking that she would no longer see her home for quite some time. She could not help but feel a little sad and let it sink on to her face. Savage looked and saw the slight flicker.

“Fear not my dear. You have been cut off from your home before and returned stronger” Savage said. Diana was grateful for the words but she couldn’t help but think this time it may not be quite so simply explained. His robe in the slight wind around the mountain seemed to part just a little to reveal his erect cock. He turned his entire body towards her and she saw more of it.

“Is this where my debasement begins?” Diana asked more theoretically then anything but there was a genuine question in it as well.

“I think you would agree your debasement started the moment you came to my castle”

Left unsaid was which time she had come to the castle Diana noted.

“That much is true” She agreed.

“On the floor slave” Savage ordered.

Diana knelt on the ground, with the leash still in his hand she felt very uncomfortable being this close to him but knew she was about to get closer.

“No, on the floor. On your stomach slave” Savage commanded once she was settled. Diana looked up at him and saw nothing but a smile and motivation on his face.

“Yes Master” Diana slid her feet from under her and assumed a push up position before laying down. Her face now an inch or less away from his feet.

“Kiss my feet” Savage commanded.

Diana groaned inwardly but she was sure it must have shown on her face and even though it was turned away from him he either knew or guessed what her face would be.

“Obey slave” He jerked the chain slightly. Not enough to jerk her back upright but enough to tell her he would not tolerate any disobedience.

“Yes Master” Diana could see his right foot was merely an inch or so away from her. She raised herself to her forearms and started to reach down to the top of his foot with her lips. When they touched she tasted a salty flesh. Planting one kiss on his foot she attempt to moved towards the other but he tugged on her chain.

“I will tell you when you are done” Savage commanded. Diana looked up and could barely see his grinning face but nodded anyways. Another kiss was placed on the top of his foot and then another. Another and another, Diana kept kissing the top of his feet until he started to wiggle his toes. Inwardly cringing she moved down and started to kiss his toes and then finally he raised his foot and had her kiss the underside of his feet a couple of times before he had her move on to the other. It felt like hours but it was probably mintues spent kissing his feet before he jerked the leash with enough force to tell her to rise again but she was only allowed back onto her knees. Where she saw that his member had somehow grown in size. She thought he had been erect before but not like now.

“Meet your true Master slave. Kiss it” Savage laughed and pulled the leash towards him forcing her face to go into his crotch. Her face brushed against his cock before she regained her balance and leaned in. The sudden movements also caused a reaction in her nipple rings. Again she cursed Hephaestus for his creativity and craft. Leaning in she placed a tentative kiss on the head of his penis. To her dismay and some what pride it seemed to cause his member to engorge even more.

“Enough teasing. Take it in your mouth. Have you sucked a cock before Princess?” Savage teased.

Diana nodded but she had never done it quite like this though. Kneeling in an open space that clearly no one would be ever to see but still a public type area she took his cock in one hand and guided the head into her mouth. Thankful that he seemed to have bathed at least she licked the tip of his cock and began to suck.

Savage was in heaven.

Diana’s mouth worked the head of his cock but he wanted more. He took her head in his hands and began to guide her down his shaft. Diana had never done this and began to choke. Before he relented and allowed her to come back and get some air. Not for long though until he had his cock in her mouth again and was starting to push it down her throat. This time when she started choking he kept her there a little longer before allowing her to take her mouth away. Even less time to recover he had her mouth wrapped around his cock one more time. They continued this for a few minutes before Savage pulled the leash away from his body causing Diana to take his cock out of her mouth and fall to the floor by the side of him on all fours. Savage quickly moved behind her and without anything more being said he thrust his member into her exposed pussy. He thrust long and hard on the first time. Diana on the terrace couldn’t help but moan in response and she was sure it echoed in the mountains. He popped his cock out of her and thrust back in again and again. With the collar around her and the way he was pounding her Diana was hot and bothered and knew she would be cumming like a whore even in regular circumstances but because of it’s power she could not. He continued, relentlessly thrusting in and out like the savage that he was. Diana was no expert in the field of sexual conquests but she had had her fair share of experience. Savage was unlike anything she had ever experienced. As soon as he got close he would stop for a moment and caress her behind before without warning again he would thrust right back in. After doing that about four times and leaving Diana on the edge every single time for her own release, he flipped her on her back and began to thrust into her. His face inches from her own as he moved his hips and his cock in and out of her. Diana’s moaned continued to echo through the country or at least in her own mind as the King took her. Again teasing her and teasing her until she would no longer be able to stand it. Time and again he would stop. His tongue would invade her mouth and so aroused with passion she would return his exertions in kind. When he would start up again he would tease her more and more and then stop and go back to her lips or switch to her breasts. With the nipple rings any action he did around them was an exercise in pain and pleasure. Tired of having her on her back he picked her up and threw her over a chair that overlooked the view. Diana grabbed the back of the chair and he took her from behind once more. He reached around and grabbed her breasts. Diana moaned in pleasure and finally, thankfully Savage came. Diana was exhausted from the ordeal and slumped into the chair she had been mounted over just moments before. Savage with a grin as wide as the hemisphere scooped up his robe and went back to the bar. He returned with a bottle of water for her and glass of wine for himself. Diana panted over the chair looking out over the country. Panting and so in need of release but unwilling to even voice it. She could tell by Savaage’s posture that he knew her need and he was not even going to suggest anything until she broke down and asked for it. He gave her a few minutes to either recover or to grapple with having to ask him to cum but she would not say those words. She did however recover and turned herself around and sat in the chair. A towel was given to her for her to wipe away the sweat from her body and other fluids. He laughed as she did so and took her up from the chair. The leash always in his hand he led her back into the residence away from the terrace.

“I trust it was good for you” Savage half asked.

All Diana could do was stare at the man but he just grinned back at her. Leash in hand he led her towards a couch and virtually threw her into a seat on one. It was comfortable but a little disorientating to be treated that way.

“I’ll let you cum if you ask for it” Savage mocked her. He knew full well she would not do such a thing and she found his mockery somehow even more degrading. Diana just continued to stare at the man.

“Have it your way then” Savage heaved a heavy sigh and jerked the chain forcing her off of the couch. HE walked back to the door they had come in through, Diana following directly behind. They descended the staircase and Diana was thankful to be going back to that little piece of heaven. When they got to the door though Savage opened the other door they had not gone through instead of the one that she knew led back to the grotto. His palm imprint opened the door into a similar staircase but this one was going down a long narrow area. The two of them with Diana tucked in behind began to make their way done. Not a single word being uttered between them. As they descended deeper and deeper Diana became away the lighting was dimming and the stones were becoming a more moldy and stained version. Finally they exited through a door into a large barely lit area. There were no windows and the walls made of the same stone were moldy with some moss and some water stains around them. The smell was dank and stale. Savage drew her in with the leash. It was an open area except for iron bars blocked out most of the area from view. She could see through them but it was too dark to make out much of anything. He led her to the central part of the bars with another pad and opened up a gate. It wrenched open with a giant thud. Telling her just how heavy it was. He brought her inside what was a huge cell. A tug on her leash brought her behind him once more as he walked into the area. Diana began to make out objects but only barely in the low light. A cross, spanking bench, cages, a standing stockage and a hanging stockade. There was plenty of other things that Diana didn’t even know the names of including one that looked like a latex blanket on the floor, framed by iron rods and connected to some sort of pump. Savage led her towards one device she wasn’t familiar with but she had seen it before but couldn’t place the name. It was on the ground with ring holes in the floor at the back and at the front just behind it. The device was rectangular about five feet long and about three feet high with a round crescent shaped mound. On the peak of the mound was a latex like pad that looked like things could be added to. Savage brought her to it and had her spread her legs over the device and then kneel on it. She was told to place her pussy on the latex pad. All of her weight was somehow on the clit that was directly in contact with the pad. Diana didn’t like this as the collar and the actions with Savage had already left her libido in overdrive, dying for any sort of release. With a wave of his hand the restraints around her ankles and wrists came back but the chains did not. He made a face and she could see even in the dim light he was concentrating. As he did the chains from her restraints did come back but they connected to the four ringlets in the floor in front and behind the device not to each other. Her ankle restraints and the chains connecting kept her solidly in place but the chains for her wrists to the ringlets in the floor before her was loose and allowed her to sit upright on the device without much discomfort.

“Last chance to beg for what we both know you want” Savage sneered at her.

Diana just looked at him. Not really trusting what she would say if she did open her mouth.

“As you wish” Savage waved a hand at her dismissively. He walked behind her but she could still sense him very close to her. His breath was so close to her neck as he seemed to be reaching down behind her. Diana felt his hand on the outside of the bottom of the device and heard a click. The click seemed to activate whatever was inside the device and the latex pad sprung to life. The vibrations emitting from it immediately sent shivers upon shivers of pleasure through her clit and then through her body.

“OHHHHHH GOOODDDDEEEESSSS!!” She screamed and thrashed in the chains but she could not move from the pad. The bliss of pleasure was intense and still she could not cum.

“One mro chance my charming slave. Ask me to cum and I will allow it” Savage tried to tempt her with the promise of the reward. She looked up at him. Pleading with her eyes and a firm lock to her jaw.

“NOOOOOOOOOO!!! OHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!” Diana managed to say.

“Stubborn creature” Savage reached down and gripped her chin. He pushed her away.

“Reap what you sow then” Savage turned and walked away. Soon he was out of site. Diana over her own moaning and screams and the vibe from the machine could still hear it when he closed the iron gate to the cell.

“OHHHH!!!!” Diana tried to move herself away from the device but the chains just would not allow her. Every time she thought she had the chains would tighten or just move in a way to bring her clit back into contact with it.

“MMMMMMMM!!!!!!!” Diana moaned into the darkness.

Diana woke with a sound. It echoed throughout the area. Her eyes opened and she realized the sound was her own. Coming from her own mouth. Her moans continued unabated. The pleasure must have been so much and no release that she had somehow been oversexed and she had entered some sort of trance or just outright passed out.

“MMMMMMMMM!!!!!!” she moaned and moaned into the silence.

The machine shut off and Diana still under the influence of the collar felt the need to cum for what felt like hours after it had been turned off. When she felt she was getting herself under control and slipping into a sleep state the machine turned on again and pushed her further and further. Longer and longer she would be on the edge and then the machine would turn off. Never long enough for her to fully recover. It would turn back on and leave her dying for release.

Diana wasn’t sure how long she had been on it but her body was covered in sweat. She ached from the position which she found odd but she was tired and with all the sweat, she was sure she was dehydrated. Her throat was dry from her moaning. Still though she moaned into the Darkness and felt herself drift away.

Savage gripped her chin and she opened her eyes. When had he arrived she thought. Her body was drenched in sweat and he looked down with glee in his eyes.

“Are you ready yet to ask?”

Diana’s stare was no less severe then before but inside she felt a little wall fall. Still she would not beg and she would not give him the satisfaction.

“HAHA perhaps another six hours or so” Savage pushed her chin away.

Six hours??? she thought. It had felt like days on this infernal machine.

“Have it your way then” Savage walked off once more and she felt herself moaning loudly into the darkness as he disappeared.

“MMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!” Diana wasn’t even sure how she still had the ability to vocalize anything. She felt so drained and she hadn’t even cum. Her eyes flickered in and out but she managed to catch the shape of Savage approaching her once more.

“Good morning my pet” Savage had a glass of wine in his hand. He bent down to one knee and took a sip. He placed the glass against her lips.

“Would you like a taste?” he offered.

Diana did not like the idea but for any water or anything to go down her throat right now would be heavenly. She nodded enthusiastically. He placed the glass on her lips and tiled her head back and allowed a good amount to go down her throat.

“Thank you” Diana managed to say.

Savage nodded and rose back to his full height.

“Now do you have something to ask of me?”

Diana looked up at the man. She knew there was less determination in her stare now because she felt it in her soul but she still refused to verbalize anything. Just gave him the eyes. He looked down with amusement in his eyes and determination as well.

“As you wish” Savage mockingly shrugged his soldiers. Drank from his glass and then departed. Diana moaned on the machine and looked after him wondering if she could call out and tell him she would beg to cum. Would he come back. Would he give her another sip of that wine to sate her dry throat. He was gone before she could come to any answer. She was lost in her own need before to long. Drifting in and out of her own lusts she had no idea how long it would be until she saw him again.

Diana felt a hand on her head. She opened her eyes and looked up at the smiling image of Savage. As always with a cup of wine in his spare hand. He reached down and cupped her chin. Drool escaped from the side of her mouth. Still unable to cum her body and mind teetered on exhaustion.

“How is my pet?” He asked with all the sincerity she had ever seen him muster.

“p……….” Diana chocked on a dry throat. Coughing and spluttering all over herself. Mixing in with her sweat drenched body.

Savage tilted her head back and allowed her to drink. He poured ever so slowly the wine into her mouth. Allowed her to swallow and then poured more into her mouth. He allowed her to take the entire glass in her mouth and then finally she was able to look up with him with more then dreary exhausted eyes.

“Th….an...k you” She managed.

“Can’t have you begging if you can’t talk my dear” Savage smiled and squatted down beside her. He reached out and took a sweat covered breast in his hand. He played with it causing more ripples of pleasure to spread through her body.

“Wo….nt beg” Diana meekly said.

“Even after two days here?” Savage mused.

“no” two days? Diana thought. It couldn’t have been only that long it had felt like a century already.

“Hmmmmmm perhaps then two weeks” Savage pushed her breast away and lightly slapped her chin.

“Well die” Diana managed to say with almost a hint of defiance.

“We shall see” Savage rose to his full height and walked away.

Diana’s body was that of a Goddess but even she had her limits. She had thought them thoroughly tested through the years with her Amazon sisters and then with her various struggles in mans world. Two weeks constantly on edge with the stimulation she would either find a way to adapt and not find pleasure in the device and the vibrations anymore or surely her body and heart would give up long before that. In the back of her mind she knew this and as he walked away her pride crumbled at the knowledge that her heart would give out before any hop of her adapting herself to live with the pleasure.

“Please!” She managed to say just as Savage was fading into the darkness. She watched as his form slowed and then stopped.

“Please what?” Came his voice from the darkness.

“Please can I cum?” Diana said as tears began to flow down her face. Amazed that her body had anything left to give.

The form of Savage turned and walked back out of the darkness towards her. Taking her chin in his hand and turned her head up to look at him.

“Again” He commanded.

Diana swallowed on a very dry throat and looked at him. She saw nothing more then menace and triumph in his face.

“Please can I cum?” She repeated.

“Again and you are missing something” Savage warned.

Diana thought about it for a moment and then swallowed once more when the answer dawned in her mind.

“Please can I cum… Master” She stared into his face her chin still gripped in his hand.

“Do you agree it is pointless to try and resist slave” Savage gripped her chin a little tighter.

Diana cringed but had to admit he was right.

“Yes Master”

“From now on you will obey and when you need to cum like the slut you are you will beg for it like a good slave. Do you agree?” Savage squatted down with his hand still gripping her chin.

“Yes Master” Diana tried to look away but she was exhausted and his grip was to tight.

“Say it then. Tell me you will cum like the slut you are and beg for it like the slave you are” Savage demanded.

“I will beg to cum like the slut and slave I am Master” Diana said while a tear escaped from her eye.

Savage with his free hand brushed it away and then brushed away her stringy sweat filled hair.

“Good slave” He rose back up to his full height and let go of her chin. Diana could see he was thinking a bit and as he did so the chains that had kept her pinned on top of the machine were released from the ringlets on the floor and connected with each other. Leaving her chained again but able to stand from the machine which she desperately wanted to do but there was one other thing she needed more.

“Please can I cum Master?” Diana repeated once more allowing the vibrations from the machine to continue to play out over her by now very sensitive and possibly damaged clit she had to admit.

“Not yet slave. You will stand another hour on the machine on your own free will. I will watch and then when I am satisfied you have truly learned to be obedient you will cum” Savage decreed. She watched as he slipped into the darkness around them. There was a faint rustling sound and then he was back into it with a chair that he placed directly in front of her and sat down. Diana swallowed hard and nodded.

“May I at least have some water?” Diana requested.

Savage thought for a moment and nodded. He got up from the chair and disappeared once more. When he returned he had a small plastic cup containing some water. He handed it to her. With her hands now unchained from the floor she was able to drink it herself without him having to pour it down her throat. The chains now back to their standard setup of chained wrists and ankles clattered about as her pussy was driven insanely wild beneath her from the machine. They clattered more so with each time she felt herself needing and possibly able to cum but it was never allowed. Once she was done with the water she settled her pussy over the pad even more so and more comfortably. Savage sat on the chair.

“Now slut your hour begins”

“Yes Master”

Sitting on the machine Diana could feel every single vibrations through her body. In her exhausted and defeated self she didn’t even try to resist it anymore. She just allowed it to wash over her body and she found a certain pleasure in that. Not as much as she would have felt if she was allowed to cum but it was enough to drain her mind in. Before too long Savage was up of the chair and he was pressing his hands through her hair and pinching a nipple or reaching behind and lightly smacking her ass. Diana closed her eyes at those moments and again the waves of pleasure just washed over her and she felt blissful. This was the true nature and evil of the collar she began to understand. The acceptance of the ownership. The need and the pleasure derived from obeying. Diana wanted to fight but she didn’t have the strength and she knew better to resist now anyways.

Lost in her thoughts Diana didn’t notice that Savage had turned the machine off. He had the leash back in his hands and squatted before her. She opened her eyes and looked at him.

“Beg for me again slut?” He ordered.

“May I please cum Master” Diana said with no hint of sarcasm or disobedience.

“MMM so sweet to hear it. Say it again”

“May I please cum Master” She repeated.

Savage pulled hard on the leash. So much so that she had to strain against him to remain on top of the machine as she had been ordered and he hadn’t given an order to get up from it. He smiled with her effort and winked.

“Good girl” He laughed.

“Master please!” Diana begged with not sense of restraint or pride left in her voice.

“You may cum” Savage’s simply stated words were all she needed and with the power of the collar and her built up frustration Diana exploded. Days of pent up need came in waves over her. Cumming as quickly as the words were out of his mouth Diana screamed into the void of the cell. Savage smiled from ear to ear. Her body jerked and shuddered with each second. So powerful was the experience Diana felt her head lighten and her vision fade. She blacked out in a fit of pleasure and exhaustion. Savage took a hold of her as she tumbled from the machine and fell tot he side. He made sure to check that she as breathing and when he noted that his prize was still alive he smiled once more. Taking her into his arms he lifted her up over his shoulder.

Diana woke with a headache. She lay nude on a sandy beach, her eyes not yet open. Just knew the feel of sand on her body and luxuriated in it’s familiar presence. Her whole body ached. There was a need within her to reach down and touch herself but she did not. The feeling was there as always, the sexual tension and need for release within her but as she opened her eyes and took in where she was she knew that even if she did reach down nothing would change.

She was in the grotto and next to her sitting up with his knees under his chin was Savage. No leash in his hand and Diana noticed that there were no chains clattering about and not even the feeling of the collar around her throat. Her hands immediately went to her throat to confirm that she she also raised herself to a sitting position.

“It’s still there slave. I am just getting better with it’s functions” Savage said from beside her.

“It can be hidden?” Diana was not aware of that ability.

“Yes” Savage looked at her for a moment and the collar reappeared around her throat for a moment and then disappeared.

“I did not know about that” Diana confessed.

Savage nodded at her and looked away for a moment.

“There are many things you don’t know about but that will all be revealed in time. How do you feel my pet?”

“Like I just went a round with Doomsday” Diana admitted.

“You do look a little ragged” Savage confirmed.

“Nothing a little rest would not solve” Diana said cheerfully enough that she was a little angry at herself.

“That will have to wait” Savage said ominously enough.

“Why?” Diana asked worried he was already going to abandon their agreement that this place become a sanctuary for her.

“You were out of it longer then I would have thought. It seemed I was harsh in trying to get my point across” Savage said as he looked back at her.

“Point made” Diana said simply.

“I have some vistors that I will require your attendence with” Savage looked at her for any sign of disobdience.

“I understand” Diana said, not truly knwoing what he meant but knowing she had no choice but to obey.

“The two warring parties have negotiated an end to the war and the establishment of free elections. They only ask one more thing of you before they depart back to their country”

Diana looked at him and then away. Knowing full well what might have been asked and knowing as well that Savage would have agreed in knowing the humiliations it would bring to her.

“They want to have…… some alone time with me” Diana stated.

“To put it mildly yes” Savage confirmed.

“Not unexpected considering the spectacle you gave them on my enslavement and the harm I gave to both of them” Diana mused.

“I will admit that I did not try to dissuade them from their notion” Savage leered over her nude body.

“No I would think you didn’t” Diana took her face in her hands and liked the fact that there were no restraints on her.

“You have given the appearance of no chains to further empathize your control over me. If I were to show up to them in chains is one thing but to be doing so willingly without them is another” Diana asserted.

“That is correct my dear slave” Savage nodded.

“I can see how advantageous that would be for you. I will obey…. Master” Diana closed her eyes and took her face once more in her hands and tried to hold back the tears. She was now agreeing to be a whore for the man. The thought caused her to want to cry for hours but she bottled it up. A single tear escaped from her eye but she wiped it away as she took her hands away from her face.

“I am ready when you need me Master” Diana said with a conviction that surprised them both.

Savage nodded at the former heroine and rose from his place on the sand. He offered her his hand which she took and he helped her up to her feet.

“Slave you are still the most wondrous woman in the world” Savage took her hand and led her out of the grotto through the first door that led back into the throne room. Diana was a little scared of the public implications of being brought into the throne room where no doubt the General and the President waited. It was one thing to agree to be a whore it was another to do the actual acts in a public place.

They emerged into a fairly deserted throne room Diana had to admit. There were far less advisers and thankfully for her own sanity there was no servants walking around. Her debasement would at least only be seen by the men of the room. She followed behind him as he walked up to his throne from behind. Diana had yet to learn any procedure or protocol for what to do in these situations but judging on what she had been doing the previous time she was here she went tot eh side of the throne and knelt. Savage nodded his approval at her. Diana wanted to desperately to lower her head and not meet anyone's gaze in the room but she knew her Master would not like that and her own pride still burned in her heart demanded that she face these tests as openly and confidently as possible. So she turned her eyes outward into the room and saw two figures standign before the throne. The President and the General. They looked unhappy to be so close together but their leering eyes and lustful faces seemed to have created a common purpose for them to bond over.

“Gentlemen” Savage greeted.

“Your dog is off leash Savage. Aren’t you afraid of it biting back at you” The President never took his eyes off of Diana. The look was one that Diana had seen many times before on villains and just evil men the world over. Only this time she would not be able to slap any sense into him. This time she knew she was going to endure whatever they had going on their sick minds.

Savage smiled at the two men before him.

“My dogs are well trained. This is my slave….” Savage reached out from his throne and took a hold of the nearest breast and stroked it almost tenderly and lovingly. Diana with the collars help couldn’t help but almost close her eyes and lean into his touch.

“…. and she knows to obey. Is that not right slave?” Savage asked as he tweaked a nipple.

“MM yes Master” Diana confirmed for him. She leaned even more heavily into the groping just to empathize her new Master’s control over her that much more.

“I want her ass…. NOW!!” The General demanded. Diana cringed inwardly. Even in their session together her and Savage had not spoken like that and if he was referring to literally taking her ass she was not happy about that either.

“You WANT?!” Savage half rose from his throne. His voice booming through the room, causing some of the people in the area to outwardly cringe. The General to his credit did not seem to perturbed but Diana could sense a slight change in his demeanor.

“I only mean to say that I want what was promised” The General tried to repharse but Diana could sense that the brief exchange had made Savage angry.

“And you President?” Savage asked with a snarl to his voice.

The President did not back down and even looked to his side where the General stood. His most hated enemy but once more their own lusts formed common ground.

“I agree with my fellow countrymen. I want her, NOW!”

It was perhaps the worst possible thing to say to Savage. He rose from the chair and with the grace of a fighter trained for years and the strength of someone double his size he took a hold of the President’s wrist and turned it. Applying pressure he spun it and threw him to the ground in a heap. In a fluid motion that Diana was even impressed with he turned towards the General and did a similar grip and throw. Their assembled parties instantly rushed to their leaders sides. By the time they got there Savage was back standing just in front of his throne, his snarl replaced by one of pure contempt.

“I offer you my home and access to my property and then you demand it?” Savage roared. His hand reaching down. Diana was still kneeling by the throne just a little to the side and behind him. His hand reached out searching for her. With a subtle shift of her weight she shuffled forward and placed a breast within reach. His fingers sought out her nipple and he begin to tease. The two leader before him didn’t seem at all bothered by his actions but their growing arousal at her debasement was clear for Diana to see. Not knowing where Savage was going with it she new her main duty as it would be for a long time now was to anticipate and serve him to the best of her ability. So with that in mind she shuffled a little further so that his fingers could then gran her breast. He took this offering readily and happily. Taking her nearest breast in his hand and rubbing it and cupping it. This only served to further inflame the two leaders desires.

“I want what was promised Savage” The General demanded.

“Indeed?” Savage questioned. From behidn the two leaders Diana could see two people detach from the advisers the two warring leaders had come with. She had seen these two before with the leaders. These two were the ones who actually seemed to be getting along and talking together towards some sort of common goal. They each joined their respective leader on either side of them. Diana tensed for a confrontation. Though Savage as Immortal if he is dealt a mortal blow it would take sometime for him to reemerge and that time would leave her in a moral quandary as to what to do. One she was not willing to go through. Without her bracers she could not deflect bullets but she as close enough to take Savage down and away from an attack. After that she was a Goddess and an Amazon after all even without the added strength and stamina that the collar had taken from her she was sure she could still handle anything that was currently in the room. Savage felt her body stiffen in response to the two new arrivals. He simply gave her a pat on the nipple as if to say do not worry. She relaxed a little and remembered that she was after all in this position because of his masterful manipulations and was it not feasible to think he had maneuvered these two leaders and their parties into the position he wanted them.

“Then you shall have what was promised” Savage responded. The sentence was barely finished when the two new arrivals on either side of the two leaders produced a knife each and slit their leaders throats from ear to ear. Diana was stunned but she appeared to be the only one in the room who was so. Suddenly whatever tension that was in the room was gone and the two parties embraced each other. Laughing and smiling they clapped each other on the backs and relayed stories with their hands. The gurgling of the two leaders throats as they died was interuped by Savage.

“I did originally promise the both of you that you would be rid of each other and your country would be the better for it. I think even my slave will not shed a tear for either of you” Savage gloated and Diana admitted to herself he was right. She would not shed a tear at all for the deaths of those two who had caused so much damage.

The two still with the knifes bloody in their hands bowed to Savage.

“We thank you King Savage for your help in finally ridding our country if these two power hungry vermin. As agreed we will hold free elections for our people. Once our leader is chosen we would be honored to have you as a guest in our country and of course your beautiful pet” One of the advisers who had been on the President’s side said.

“Huratio Neilson and Gabrielle Fyre have already entered the race and are expected to form the next government” The other adviser said.

Diana knew them both. Had worked with both in the refugee camps. She knew instantly that those two names wither true or not would be extremely suitable leaders and she had even tried to get Gabrielle to try and run when the time came herself. Savage tightened his grip on her breast, the increased pressure causing her to wince just a little.

“Do you shed a tear for these fools slave” Savage gestured towards the two now dead leaders on the floor while half turning to address her.

“No Master”

“I would imagine you know both of those people this man just said. How do you feel about them?”

“If true I think either of them would be more then capable of being excellent rulers for the country Master”

Savage laughed. Knowing that she would know that they maybe dropping the names to just satisfy her.

“We will have a visit with both before long for you to believe it for yourself slave. Your happiness while not my main concern is of concern to me” The admission of that at least was somewhat of a victory in her mind. Diana knew now that she had at least a measure of control. Before that through could fully form a nipple was pinched and tweaked quite brutally. To empathize it wasn’t truly that high on his list of concerns.

“Thank you Master” Diana said through gritted teeth not willing to show the pain he inflicted from the nipple.

As they had a slight exchange the two fallen leaders had been dragged out. A cleaning crew surprisingly getting the blood out of the stone easily and quickly. Soon there was not even a hint of what had happened. Wine was opened and the advisers from the other countries began to celebrate even more so. Savage sat back down in his throne with a smile and of course a cup of wine in his hand. Food was being brought out. Diana wanted to hide but the servants could all see her. Some snickered at her sight even though they were really no better off in their so called uniforms. Fuming with the indiginity Savage seemed quite content and happy after having two people killed and a fresh glass of wine placed in his hand. His hand never really left her breast. Continuing to grope her and twist her nipple as he sat on the throne.

“Who would like to see my slave perform for us?” Savage roared through the room.

There was a roar of approval. Diana tensed under his proclamation. Unsure of what he had in mind. Savage leaned over, with the added leverage he gripped her breast even tighter and whispered so that only they could hear.

“How can you best entertain us slave?” Savage asked.

“I will do as asked. Name what you wish” Diana answered.

“Surprise me” Savage whispered. Again she was being asked to find her own means of degradation.

Diana looked at the man with the wide grin and smiled back at him. Clearly a test of her obedience and she really didn’t feel like being punished again.

“Yes Master”

Thinking for a moment, an idea formed in her head. She took a moment more to consider it and then with her mind made up she leaned over to him.

“Can I have some music?”

Savage turned to her and raised an eyebrow.

“Of course my dear. What would you like?”

“Something with a slow beat” Diana asked.

Savage smiled and nodded. With a flick of his wrist an adviser came over and he relied the command. Very quickly somewhere music started to play throughout the throne room. It was a slow beat with a drum and a guitar.

“Perfect” Diana said. She looked up at Savage who regarded her with passion and curiosity. Diana tilted her head as if to ask if she could move from her position. He responded with a simple gesture of waving his hands out in front of him. Rising from her kneeling position Diana began to sway with the music.

Her hands free of chains rolled up the sides of her body and then up over her head. Her hips swayed and rocked to the beat of the music. Walking down the throne steps her body became one with the music as she moved as only a graceful fighter could. Reaching the bottom of the steps her ass shook with her hips moving to the music. Savage sat in his throne and immediately felt himself getting excited. Around the entire hall everyone was transfixed at the sight of the slow moving erotic dancing of the Amazon. In front of her the entire assemblage of former enemies now basking in the glory of their winnings all sat with drinks in their hands or stood watching and not uttering a single thing. Her breasts swayed with her movements. Diana closed her eyes, not so that she could not see what everyone else was doing but to better concentrate. This wasn’t exactly something she had practiced so she settled into a more known dance. At home her and her sisters would often dance but not erotically. So she slipped into a known dance that they would do and made sure to waggle her butt and hips more. To slow down at certain points and to exaggerate her moves much more so. Judging by how the room had become quiet around her except for the music she knew something must have been happening and as long as she continued she was sure she was pleasing Savage because if she wasn’t she was sure she would have heard about it by now. Her eyes would occasionally open and look around and be gratified by the looks on the faces of those now openly staring at her. Some she could tell were more then happy with her performance and when she turned towards her Master she could see not only his grin but his own excitement. Knowing that her dance was coming to an end she seductively climbed the stairs back to his throne and made it a more personal affair. Stopping inches from him she moved her hips around and stared into his eyes. He was clearly happy and for that Diana was happy because she would not be punished. Turning herself around so that her ass was facing him she shuffled a little closer to him and then finally as the music came to a close she sat on his lap right there on the throne. He nearly spilled his wine but managed to place it down and with her body leaning into him she could feel his erection under her. Savage smiled and brushed away her hair now sweaty from her face and from her neck. He took her entire body into his mind and she felt him stiffen further under him. Diana was hot and horny herself and couldn’t help but rob her crotch into him over and over again as the music finally died. Suddenly very tired she sat on Savage who simply smiled and she slumped into him.

“Bravo” Savage declared just loud enough for all to hear. That shattered the silence and the rest of the room erupted into hoots, hollering and applause. He picked up his glass of wine and with her slumped over him he delicately brought it to his lips and then to hers. She drank thurstaly and couldn’t help but nustle into him as her strength began to return.

“Not how I thought the evening would be but certainly much more fun” Savage gently carressed her before subtly pushing her off of him.

“Can’t have everyone thinking you are an equal” Savage said as she fell to the floor directly in frotn of the throne avoiding the fall down the steps.

“Of course not Master” Diana said.

“I think though you might need me before to long” Diana continued as she nodded towards his crotch was barely containing his erection through his pants.

“Haha quite right slave” Savage reached down and tried to adjust himself but Diana noticed nothing he could do would get rid of that. Her own libido still on edge, permanently from the collar she couldn’t help but lick her lips. Thinking this might be a chance to earn a semblance of relief an idea occurred to her.

“Perhaps I can help?” Diana asked as she got to her knees directly in front of him. Her face close to his crotch.

“Ha perhaps you can” Savage wasted no time and reached under and took his cock out of his pants. Diana had not intended to do it here but she knew she could not stop now. She was expecting to be taken away to perform this in private but now she could sense that people had noticed what was transpiring and Savage would turn angry if she did not follow through. With her hands she took a hold of his cock and guided it to her mouth. Licking the top of his penis she cradled the shaft with one hand and moved her other to play with his balls that he had just removed from his pants as well. A coldness was felt around her neck and she knew that the collar had reappeared and was given more evidence a moment later when the leash was extended into Savage’s hands in her side view. Just as it hit his palm Diana took the head of the cock into her mouth and then remembered what he liked. Before he could pull on the leash she took the shaft into her mouth. Still a novice at this she was far better then before. Her tongue swirling but more importantly her mouth sucking. All she could hear was her own noises and the grunts of Savage but she could make out that the others in the audience were still laughing and cheering. Rightly or wrongly Diana assumed they were all watching.

Which they were. The entire place was watching. Even the servants and advisers from Savage’s own staff. They off course knew what Diana was there for but this was the first time such an action was taking place in full view.

With his cock still fully in her mouth Diana used her now free hand to reach down and play with herself. An effort that she was given permission for but gambled that Savage knowing she can’t cum anyways without permission would find amusing because it would show the entire audience her own lusts. Though she could not see his face at the moment she would have seen that the smile on his lips as he saw her reach down confirmed her assumption. His cock began to have the tell tale signs of him about to cum. Diana knew he was an expert in self control and knew that if he as going to cum she would have to continue on anyways. Not sure how long he would want to have the show go on Diana continued to suck and lick. Only coming up for air every once and awhile. After about the fourth time of coming up for air her lips slid down the cock to the very base of his balls for the first time. His cock engorged through her throat she felt it all along her throat and in her mouth when he finally allowed himself to cum. Erupting into her like a powerful geyser she had no choice but to accept every last drop. His cock finally softened enough that she withdrew it from her mouth and gave a good lick of the top of the head. It was salty and creamy but Diana didn’t think it was as bad as before.

Around them was cheers as if she had just defeated a Hydra. Savage smiled and patted her head like a pet. Diana’s hand still played with her pussy and she looked up at Savage with need. He smiled and shook his head. Clearly he had worked out her little plan for some self release and was not having any of it. A slight tug on her leash let her know that it was time to remover herself from him. She crawled the couple of steps to the side of the throne and knelt with her knees spread and her hands clasped behind her back. Head held high she saw all the smiles on the men in the room and their lustful stares and allowed it all to just wash over her.

“To think those two fools couldn’t wait” Savage laughed. The others in the room burst to life laughing and hollering once more. Fresh wine was poured and more food was brought out. This was going to be a long night Diana thought.

Diana hadn’t fallen asleep. She remained in the same position she had taken up hours ago with her kneeling by the side of the throne with her held high and her arms clasped behind her back. She had barely moved and only had done so when Savage had pulled on her leash for something. So she wasn’t jolted awake but she was brought out of a meditative like trance she had put herself into to give her time to process what was happening and to recover her strength, when the tug came on her leash. She noted as her eyes actually took in the hall around her. There were only a few left standing and even they were staggering around and slurring their words. The rest it appeared had opted for rest often at the foot of the cheers, some on tables and some in the corners fo the hall. There was half eaten food everywhere and empty wine glasses and some half empty. It was every bit the picture of a drunken medieval time. Turning to look at Savage she could see a haze in her eyes. He was immortal and certainly had a body unlike any other mortal out there but even he it seemed had his limits when it came to drink. His words weren’t slurring but he was feeling the effects. Diana had to admit she herself was thirsty and hungry. She couldn’t remember the last time she had eaten.

“Time to go slave” Savage said.

“Yes Master” Diana rose as he did from the throne and fell in behind as he descended the step s and turned from the throne and walked behind. He was perfectly fine walking she saw and only really seemed to be tired. He led her towards a wide open archway with wide steps. Never used these ones before Diana wondered where they were going as they climbed the steps until she saw his residence appearing at the top.

“I did not want any of those fools done there to know just how close your home is tot he throne room and they know not to use these stairs. They will assume you stay with me at all times” Savage reasoned even in his inebriated state.

“Thank you Master” Diana replied as they reached the top of the stairs into the familiar area of his apartment.

“Good now you know the way back to your bed. Go there and leave me be for now” Savage ordered and gestured towards the door that led back down to her sanctuary.

“Master may I ask for some food and drink” Diana said meekly trying not to anger him

The haze over his eyes cleared for a moment and his smile became one of anguish.

“Oh I am so sorry my pet. Of course you may. In your living area there is a hidden command console that will allow you to order whatever it is you desire including food and drink. It will be delivered to you. The console is in the main hallway between the rooms and spa. There is an irregular shaped and colored stone. Depress it and a touch pad will be revealed. I am truly sorry for not having shown you this”

Diana knew him to be sincere and could see that though he had appeared calm he was more then likely very happy at her slavery and had forgotten to show her things. She knew of the stone he was referring to so she didn’t think it would be a problem.

“Thank you Master”

Savage nodded and started off towards his bed as Diana made her way tot he staircase door.

“I will summon you when needed”

“How Master?” Diana thoughts

“Don’t worry slave. You wont miss it” Savage said ominously enough but for the moment Diana was more concerned about eating and getting something to drink. Watching as he fell into his bed she opened the door and made the journey back to her sanctuary. Walking down the last couple of steps Diana nearly fell over herself when the chains suddenly appeared and reconnected with her restraints which had also reappeared.

“Thanks…. Master for that” Diana muttered, regained her balance and getting a hold of herself. The last couple of stairs were easy enough and then she was back into the relative beauty of the sanctuary. Wasn’t long before she had found the panel and had discovered she could literally order anything and if there was no option for what she wanted she could request it. She ordered some food and some drink and within five minutes the door that would lead out to the throne room opened and in walked nude servant. Carrying a plate of food and some water. She took a look around as if she had been in here before but still found the whole place to be fascinating. Diana went to greet her. Feeling a little foolish to be waited on and to be in her chains and collar but she would not let her anxiety show through especially to another woman.

“I always love it in here but I didn’t think anyone was living in here” The woman said. She was small but a beauty with a body that seemed to be athletic and toned for battle. Diana took the items from her and smiled.

“I am new here” Diana stated.

“Everyone knows you are Wonder Woman. You are my idol” The servant said. Diana blushed a little at that. To meet ones idol in these circumstances could be devastating.

“I hope you don’t think less of me for this?” Diana said.

“How could I?…. I mean look at me. I am doing this for a paycheck. You sacrificed yourself for peace. I can think of nothing more that you embody then that”

Diana had to blink away a tear.

“Thank you. I can’t express just how much that means to me” Diana had to wipe away another.

“You are the reason why I started MMA. I wanted to feel strong like I could take care of myself if anything were to happen…. Again” The servant said. Diana could feel that there was a story there but she didn’t want to push the young woman.

“So you are happy with this then? Serving in such a way” Diana asked.

“I don’t think any of us are truly comfortable with it but we are okay with it. The pay is really good so it means I can afford a good trainer and help put my brother through school. He’s in Boston right now at law school. Family is proud” The woman’s face lit up at the mention of her family.

“Here let me grab that” Diana took everythign and placed it down on the ground.

“Would you like some?” Diana asked. Suddenly aware that her social interactions for a few days had all been with Savage and now talking to this sweet beautiful woman had made her lonely.

“I would love to but I don’t think I can stay”

“I understand. It was a pleasure to meet you”

“Oh it was an honor for me Wonder Woman” The servant grabbed her hand and shook it forcefully and playfully like so many others had before. It was a welcome gesture and one so familiar she felt normal for a moment.

“Please it’s just Diana. Will you always be the one delivering to me?”

“Wow, okay Diana. Sounds weird… hahaha. I probably will be or maybe during my off hours it’ll be Sara or Rachel”

“What’s your name?”

“Georgia”

“Fabulous name. If it’s allowed I would love to spar with you. Perhaps teach you something or you me and it will allow me another source of physical activity” Diana blushed realizing that another form of physical activity could be all the interactions with Savage.

“Oh wow. I’ll ask. I don’t think they will allow it but I would love too”

“I do not wish to get you in trouble” Diana said as she stifled a yawn and lowered herself to the floor to have a look at the food.

“I’ll leave you alone Wonder….. I mean Diana, so you can eat” Georgia said.

“Thank you. Be safe sister” Diana stated as the young woman turned and made her way out of the grotto.

Looking at her food Diana was reminded just how hungry she was and dug in.

Six Months Later.

Savage tugged on her leash as she made her way through his apartment. In the last six months Diana had been used in every possible way she could have imagined and some she had never dreamed of in her nightmares. Currently her collar and chains were showing and she was nude being tugged out to the terrace. After everything she still loved the view. A gradual acceptance of what she as doing had taken place. Her disobedience had all but been taken out by the days on the vibrator months ago but since then she had been treated fairly well and as such had grown accustomed to her slavery. Boring as it maybe she spent most of her time in the grotto. Alone and bored. So used to a life of action and responsibility the change had been unnerving at first. She would be brought out into the throne room or elsewhere for Savage to show her off. Show tot he world and to his friends that she was indeed under his control. Her contact with the outside world limited to the times she was able to convince any of the servants to talk to her. None of the advisers would and the servants did so very hesitantly. Even Georgia who had been so nice and welcoming when they had met had maintained a distance. Sure that they had been told not to interact with her. The isolation was driving her mad and when she woke up in the mornings and looked over at the two spare beds that had never been removed she had begun to wonder would it be so bad to have a sister in slavery with her. She knew in time her isolation would have her begging Savage for someone to share the time with and she suspected that was exactly what he wanted. The view below was no less spectacular this evening as it always was. There was a slight spring chill in the air but it was more invigorating then anything.

“Glorious is it not?” Savage asked.

“I always enjoy this view Master”

Savage was in a very expensive suit and was looking as suave as he had ever looked.

“We have some guests tonight slave” Savage announced.

“I noticed something was up Master”

“Yes in your former life you will have met many of them and heard of many of the others. You are as always expected to be on your best behavior and treat them all with respect” Savage warned. Diana didn’t like that. The types of people that would be needed for him to give her such a command could be among the worst people in the world.

“I will obey you as always Master” Diana tried her best to hide her reservations.

“I would expect nothing less”

Over the past couple of months Savage had become more and familiar with the collar and the restraints. A month ago he showed the ability to change her restraints and actually make clothes out of them. Now as he looked at her on the terrace the chains that linked her restraints disappeared as did the leash. From her collar the material seemed to melt but expand as it did so as it flowed down her neck. The restraints on her wrists melted away completely as did the ones on her ankles. The material that was metal Diana knew all to well, it flowed down from her neck. As it reached her neck it separated into two different and equal parts. Spreading to her shoulders they formed two separate straps that were enough to cover her shoulder. They melted and expanded down from there coming together again just under her breasts forming a very deep v that showed much of her breast and so tight that the rings in her nipples were clearly visible through it. Once combined again it spread down over her stomach and to her hips before separating into three different strands again. One directly center that flowed completely down over her crotch in a barely wide drape that would only slightly cover her pussy. It flowed right down to her ankles. From the back as well a similar in size strand did not cover her entire ass, leaving portions of the outside of her ass cheeks visible. The two other strands that separated made their way to the sides of her hips and separated into strands barely three inches in width and then flowed right down to her ankles again. The effect was she was in a metallic yet flowing black dress that barely covered her most womanly parts but could be used all be it with no degree of sensationalism in a formal setting. Her collar remained seamlessly integrated into the outfit but no less prominent then it was. She was still going to be wearing a collar among people who more then likely had tried to kill her multiple times.

Savage stopped his concentrating and heaved a sigh of relief. This was a new thing he was experimenting with but one he was getting much better with. Diana looked at herself and twirled in the dress and noticed that with each movement something from her lower half would defiantly be glimpsed. Savage had ordered her months ago to keep her pussy shaven and now she was sure some most vile people were going to see. Savage seemed to be struggling a bit and she took a hold of him in her arms. Making sure he was given a moment or two to recover from the effort it took.

“Master are you okay?” She asked with real concern.

“Yes slave…. Thank you…. Still getting used to that but the results are worth it” Savage leered and stood on his own two feet.

“I wish I could agree but from you described there are a lot of old enemies down there and you are going to showcase me” Diana mused but was polite about it.

“I could led you down there as normal. In such a formal setting I am sure that would cause a stir” Savage warned.

“No No…. Please no Master. This is a lovely dress” Diana pleaded and twirled in her new dress just to show that she liked it.

“Good…… I hope that is all the disobedience you have in you tonight slave or I will be most displeased” Savage threateningly grabbed the ring on her collar and pulled her close to him.

“Yes Master. I will be a good girl” Diana pleaded.

“I know you will” Savage released his grip on her collar.

Diana breathed a sigh of relief. In the past few months she had largely avoided any punishments like her first weeks in service to him but there had been times he had used the shock feature of the collar to devastating effect on her. As much as she hated to admit it. The pain was so severe she was afraid of it and it did keep her in line.

He clicked his fingers and Diana fell in line behind him as they made their way to the large wide staircase. Diana followed him from behind. Getting closer tot eh throne room Diana could hear the tell tale signs of a party. Voices from every corner of the castle. Music and food overwhelmed the senses. About ten steps up from the bottom a cloaked adviser was waiting for Savage. When Savage was on the same step he waited the cloaked adviser reached inside his robe and said something to a transmitter of some sort. Immediately the music below stopped and the voices grew quieter until there was barely a whisper.

“Ladies and Gentlemen. Your host for the evening and the Conqueror of Wonder Woman” A booming voice said over some speakers. Diana cringed at the comment but there was laughter in the room below and she wanted to know who would laugh at that. Though in the back of her mind she could instantly name a few names. Diana came to a rest just a step behind Savage and the adviser and watched as Savage turned to her.

“Stay here until you are called for slave”

“Yes Master”

Diana could see right at the bottom there was another adviser who held a microphone. Savage stepped forth and took the microphone from him. Diana from her standpoint and the way of the arch and the staircase could only really make out feet at the bottom. With the microphone in hand Savage stepped forth just steps from the bottom of the staircase so that Diana could only now see his feet.

“Ladies and Gentlemen…. Friends….. Enemies...” Savage started. There was laughter at the enemies comment.

“…. Thank you for coming tonight. As you all know we have much to celebrate and we will be celebrating well into the night but for now let me present to you the main attraction for the evening….” Savage stopped to take a deep breath.

“…. Princess Diana, Wonder Woman is no longer a threat. No longer an asset to the world around us. Now she is nothing more then property and a horny slut. My property and slut. My friends…. I give to you my slave….”

Diana took that break to be her instruction to make her appearance. She descended the final stairs into the throne room. Her first look was on Savage who had turned to look at her with his smile on his face and somehow a glass of wine in his other hand. When she turned to look at the assembled peoples she gasped. It was a who’s who of villains in the world. She saw Lex Luthor with a sneer on his face. The Joker as always with an insane smile on his face. Dr. Sinvala with a leering and observant look on his face. There were others as well. Dignitaries from countries she had argued long and hard with. Senators and statesmen from her adopted home who she knew to have ties to criminal enterprise. She tried her best to smile but she couldn’t help but reflect some of the sneers on their faces on her own. Savage beckoned her next to him.

“Kneel” He commanded.

“Yes Master” With those words the entire company of people erupted in laughter and like months before wine began to be drunk and food eaten.

On the floor Diana could only see knees, legs and shoes but she did notice something else. Behind The Joker and Dr. Sinvala were the kneeling nude figures of Batgirl and Mary Marvel. Both collared and both with looks of horror on their faces as they all saw each other. It was then that her dress disappeared and her chains reappeared. She looked up for a moment and saw the smiling figure of Savage.

“Welcome to the year we make all of these sluts ours!!!” Savage roared to the wide spread laughter and roar of the others in the room.

Diana looked out towards. Diana horrified; looked out over towards Batgirl. She wore a collar and chains and the look on her face was one that mixed horror and bliss. As a mortal her physical ability to ignore the collars attentions would not be nearly as strong as hers even Mary. With that thought she turned towards Mary and found her too as well in the chains and collar of the Greek collar.

“Goddess what has happened?!” Diana exclaimed. Which caused Savage from above to jerk her collar. Next to her a man came to stand next to Savage. He reached down and patted her head. Diana looked up and stared into a man she knew very well and one she would never have expected to be in such a crowd.

“Hephaestus?” Diana asked confused.

“That’s right Princess. It’s time all the woman of the world especially you so called heroines learn you should all serve your betters” The hate on his face was unlike anything she had ever seen on her friend.

“We were friends” Diana claimed.

When he looked down at her the visible image of the god that she had known for centuries slightly shifted into the face of someone she had seen many times before.

“Granny is never friends with whores” The shape of the Apokolips villain remained for only a moment and Diana was sure she was the only one who could see.

“You are property now. Property of Darkseid. There is no hundred year expiry on those chains deary” Granny gloated.

“What have you done?” Diana demanded. Suddenly for the first time in months she had a sense of a larger duty and purpose.

“You will see….. slave” The image of Granny transposed over her friend snickered and Diana felt her chains stiffen and the shocks came through them. The lightening pain racing across her body raking her in pain. She noticed out of the corner of her eye Batgirl and Mary all being similarly shocked to the delight of their Master’s.

“We all serve Darkseid” Savage chimed from above. The image of the hated mad god appeared throughout the castle and on the faces of the villains his Omega symbol appeared.

Diana looked out towards her friends who were also enslaved and just barely breathing from the shocks to their systems.

“Loneliness plus alienation plus fear plus despair plus self-worth…….” the Anti life equation filled the hall.

“What have we done?!!!!” Diana screamed. Her Master and the Earths most vile villains under the control of the Lord of Apokolips chanted into the night. She thrashed in her chains as more and more shocks were delivered to her and her friends.

The End?
