Odd Job (First Draft)

I was making and selling custom made souvenir  Pan Handling signs to make spare money.
She asked if i could make one that said" I am not worthy" I did it in taste with her air of presence in mind she intoxicated me.Then she told me she would return she went across the street to Anna Copernicus's (sic)an alternative shop/head shop in Berkley Anubis Warpus is part of the same chain. When she returned I showed her the finished product and she invited me to coffee. We went to the Mediterranean and she told me why I was on the streets (I say told me because she knew and said so that I was there by my own course.)I told here I quite three jobs, and a reserve obligation after losing the ability to enjoy the spoils of my wealth.She had me over her place to do some general landscaping that same day and I stayed the night in the same place I stayed for the seven months I was there in an enclosed porch/room. Her residents (in the Berkley Hills)A three split level house. The first week I was there I attended her tea garden and poted gardens. It was after a week that she showed me her hobby rooms. She had an exam room, a dungeon convertible rubber room,a principles office convertible to a class room and every month she would hold a swing party in the back room of the right wing of the three level house her master room being located in the rear of the center structure,with an immaculate green outside her doors .I learned through her Valet she never had and never would have sex with her clients thus the parties.She was a strict Dominatrix.Her great uncle bought screen plays during the depression so she had no financial burdens,she was everything I expected a Dominatrix to be.
 I noticed the manner about her and those rare glimpses I saw into her world.She had her car,yet seldom drove it.The cars she drove i learned where loners from car dealers that where her clients.Her Valet her sister-in-law who was never more then fifteen feet from her was rescued from a pimp in The Tenderloin after her husband (Mistress Jacqueline's brother)
died of MS she was addicted to his pain meds and switched to heroin shortly after his death.She swore her life to her Sister -in-law.

   For the parties I would be dropped at a hotel in town with a list of supplies among which where  Xtc pills,marijuana,and occasionally LSD or mushrooms.My duties at her residents where to clean and condition leather,maintain Latex apparel,as well as various other customs and accessories.I found the time I spent in her exam room to be the most interesting (I am am a medical certified custodian).

   One client she shared with me about was a Cuban Man in his sixties, an affiliated man very wealthy(I learned that her clients payed in 401 k's to be regulars)he would cut the "putting green"outside her bed room door with small craft scissors .every once in a while she would come out in a teachers outfit and stand over him...this I was told had to do with the fact that in Cuba it was not uncommon for pupils to be punished in this manner and it was also custom for the student to fantasize about looking up the teachers dress.
 A client that did her party dishes....
a client that washed her cars...

  It was Mistress J.That taught me the difference between a fetish queen and a Dominatrix,as a present she set me up with a submissive...I still feel I was less then satisfactory to her...I have never been a dominate personality...fetish yes dom. no.

  After six months I got wander lust back in my blood, when I told her i was moving on I was shocked by her reply.
 "You are the first Lackey I have had that I did not have to chase off."I asked her if I was to use a different name and shade some info...if i could write about her in the future.I was told I could,I write with shade about this Remarkable person.Last I heard she is involved in the Power Exchange,as well as the Other World Kingdom.

This is probably a typo:

This is probably a typo: "I was there in a enclosed porch/room." "a" should be "an." Watch your spacing between punctuation, as it tends to disrupt the reading ease. I was intrigued by this unusal short story and found myself wanting more. Good job. Always, Cat

I don't see a redraft of this on the site.

It really badly needs an edit, mate. Would you like me to edit it for you and email it to you? Then we can look at the ending. That really needs work. When your collected works get published this would need a footnote explaining which site you are referring to and why and what Power Exchange and Other World Kingdom are. Otherwise intriguing, not being into dom/sub myself it is a world I seldom encounter, cheers, Jess

This fits in with the Toy Makers Apprentice (something I told as in story narrative so much that when it came time to write it I lost something in the translation.I am journaling from now on because of this.What I would give to go back and keep a pen and pad handy.
