<br/>Elated, Mark stood. It was done. He had his two willing slaves. Their lives and his would be forever changed (forever so long as nothing forced a change). Part of Mark wondered if he could really adjust to having two additional people in the house. He had been used to being a bachelor for so many years; the only people on his property or in his house were the maids and yard keepers he hired to come in a few times a month to service his property.<br/><br/>Now he would not be alone for several days and nights out of the week. He reasoned it wouldn't be to much different than many of his one night stands. It wasn't as if the female creature was new to him. He had been in a few steady relationships. It would just take some slight adjustments. He really didn't have much to worry about. They were his slaves. That solved many issues right there.<br/><br/>Extending his hand, Mark offered her a tour of where she would be staying while with him. The second floor tour went much the same as it had with Amber, with even less speaking thanks to Vivianna's shyness. For now, he would save the tour of the third floor. That was his “dungeon” so too speak. Vivianna would definitely have to be worked up to that, slowly.<br/><br/>Instead of doing what he had done with Amber, Mark instead took Vivianna outside and past his lush garden and too a very large pond, bordering on being a very tiny lake. He owned a massive swath of land. It had been bought long before he had built his mansion. He had gradually saved up money, buying things in increments.<br/><br/>The pond was semi-clear, with small patches of lillies. The water pump kept the water filtered, for the most part, and kept the water from being overrun by scum. It made for a nice swimming hole, free of annoying chlorine and other chemicals. Several trees grew nearby, providing some shade from the sun. Mark stopped just outside one of the tree's shade and looked at Vivianna.<br/><br/>“Take off your clothing,” he said softly. “I wish to see you in your natural state.”
