When Yuki got up in the morning, she felt like crap. Yes, her asshole was sore from the pounding it took the previous day, but it was evident that her period was starting. She woke Eddie and told him and quickly dressed and went home. A few minutes later, Eddie called her and told her she could wear whatever she felt like for the day and to let him know if she needs anything. She was also to report on her health before they walked to school, during lunch and as soon as school ended.

What made things worse for the two men in the Yamanori household was that all the girls in the house, including Noriko, began to menstruate that day. Keiko phoned Dalton to inform him of her affliction and, like Eddie, he told her to issue reports on her health and to wear whatever she would deem comfortable or necessary. Mr. Yamanori called such days when the women of the house had synched up their periods, "aka no hi," or "red day.s" It didn't happen a lot, but it wasn't uncommon, either. Ethan babied Aya all day long and thanked God that Daniel had told him what to do on such occasions after big brother had begun dealing with Aoi's flows and Dante with Cheryl's. 

After they walked home from school, both Eddie and Dalton dismissed their slaves from their duties for the day and said that they would be left to their own devices so that they will be able to concentrate on themselves and not worry about their masters.

Eddie also saw this as an opportunity to deal with something he had been mulling over. He went to see Alan Perlis to discuss his idea after dinner. They retired to his bedroom. "So what's on your mind Master Eddie?" "Master Alan, as you know, my slave breedinghole will be turning 18 in November. I won't even be 17 until February. The thing is that I would like to collar breedinghole once she is a legal adult and I may even decide to ask her to marry me. I recognize, though, that I would need a waiver from the board to do this. I'm one of the few masters with a slave older than they and I am hoping that special consideration can be made given the circumstances."

"Son, you haven't been going out that long with Yuki and you guys are still in that honeymoon phase of your relationship. But here is what I'll do: wait until you turn 17 and then I will bring it up with the board and see what they say. Is Yuki going away to college next fall?" "Thank you for your kind consideration Master Alan. Breedinghole told me she wants to stay close to home because she feels really comfortable in her community and wants to be near her parents." "Ah, so there is no real urgency to  this then," Alan observed. "Yeah, I guess you could say that." "Master Eddie, come back to me after your birthday and we will take this matter up again. Until then, it will be incumbent upon you to show that you should be permitted to collar Yuki and to demonstrate that your relationship has some legs," Alan ruled. "Yes Master Alan. Thank you Master Alan. I will work hard on my relationship with her and then look forward to another discussion of this matter. Sorry to interrupt your busy schedule." "Not a problem Master Eddie. Yuki is a sweetheart so take good care of her." Yes Master Alan. Thank you Master Alan."

When Eddie left Alan's house, he didn't necessarily like what his elder had to say, but also realized where he was coming from. Eddie would only have to wait three or four months after Yuki's birthday to perhaps get permission to collar her and that wasn't THAT long a time. It would also give him time to plan her collaring ceremony.

He went over to her house to check on her. Noriko let him in and he went to Yuki's bedroom, where she was reading. "So how is my wife?" he asked her. "Dear husband, your wife is still cramping and feels gross," she revealed. "Poor baby. Your husband so hates to see his beloved wife suffering. Is there anything I can do for you?" "Nothing can be done Master. Your breedinghole will just have to let it take its course." Eddie took her righthand and kissed it. Then he leaned over her and planted a soft kiss on her lips. "Yuki, you are excused from your duties until further notice and you are ordered to take whatever rest you need to be your usual self again." "Thank you my darling husband. I love you," she smiled. "I love you, too, my sweet wife."

Prentice Oldfield was also making his plans for collaring Tomiko. He had just turned 17 and was planning on going away to college and would ask for permission to claim her for eternity a couple  of months early as a result. He and Tomiko had been Master and slave for a couple of years and were pretty much inseparable. Most wondered if they would wait until after college before tying the knot, especially since she was sleeping over at his house three to four nights a week.

Dalton, though, hadn't read Keiko as she thought he should have. Dalton left her alone when she got her period because he believed that the last thing she needed was the pressure of dealing with him when she wasn't feeling well. He heard about it the next morning. Keiko couldn't go off on him because that would be considered defiance and thus would be subject to immediate punishment. So when he had her report on her health, she added this aside: "Master, when your wetpoon gets her period, she feels insecure, ugly and moody. So her Master's presence is very reassuring to her and she takes comfort in his embrace." Dalton recognized this for what it was. "So did I blow it last night Kei-chan?" "Master, your wetpoon realizes that we are still getting to know each other. She knows what you were trying to do and is grateful for Master's kindness, but she is always desiring her Master's love, even when she is visited by Aunt Flow every month." "Wetpoon, you are always living in your Master's heart and it is my greatest happiness to comfort you in  times when you are feeling down," he told her. "Thank you Master," she smiled. He put his arm around her waist and held her closely as he could while they walked to school.

There is a park next to the middle school that Ethan and Aya attend and the fence that separates the two properties has a break in it, so a lot of the students go over there during lunch to hang out even though they aren't supposed to. Ethan took Aya there and had her lay down on the cool, dry grass with her head in his lap while he fed her her lunch piece by piece. "How you feelin' babe?" he asked her. "Ugh, don't ask," she shot back. "That sucks A-chan (that was her nickname in her family). Just chill and get better," he advocated. "Thanks baby," she smiled, giving him a quick peck on the lips. "Hey babe, can I come over to your house after school?" he wondered. "I would really like that, Ethan," she stated. "I feel crappy, but having you there makes me feel supported," she told him. "I'll try to be mellow for you babe," he offered. "Ethan, I so want to submit to you. You're just the greatest guy," she disclosed. "Really?" He grinned, somewhat, though not totally, surprised. "Yeah. I know you're not allowed to yet, but please study hard when you begin learning about restraints so that we can be bound together as soon as we can." "Holy shit Aya, thanks! I will babe. You're totally the best," he burbled. He kissed her and then continually hugged her on the walk home.

After leaving Mrs. Westfield's house, Ethan and Aya went to the Yamanoris home and up to her bedroom, where they both stripped, except for her period panties, and laid in bed with him cuddling her. Noriko brought some tea up for her and Ethan as well as Keiko and Yuki and their masters. The boys noted that even at 48, Noriko was still quite fetching and so they were reassured about how their future wives would age. Aya had Ethan promise that when they got married he would buy a house in their current neighborhood because her and her family really feel like this is where they belong.

Speaking of which, with Mandy now away at college and thus out of the house, Paul and Summer Perlis were updating their interior getting it ready to be sold. They would pocket list it to members of the alumni association before thinking about putting it on the general market. They were headed to a gated community next to a golf course, since Paul was nuts about the sport, about an hour down the road from South Marlin Circle. It would also be somewhat closer to his job.

The block board was also making plans for an alumni party the following May. It would be held the first week of that month because of the neighborhood's strong ties to Japan. It would be Golden Week, a time when a number of holidays converge in the Land of the Rising Sun, which would allow onetime expats from that country that had lived on the block to take time off of work and visit. Notifications were sent out to everyone in the association so that they could arrange their schedules accordingly. Also, Ai Hamamoto had been added to the inspection committee along with Mrs. Westfield and her daughter because of the increasing number of Japanese families on the block and her familiarity with the cleanup requirements of homes designed in that culture's style. However, because Ai was a submissive, she would not be allowed to carry out any punishments for substandard neatness. Instead, she would notify Mrs. Westfield, who would then employ her cane of correction  on the miscreant party.

By the end of September, Yuki, Yumi, Keiko, Eddie, Dalton, Akihiro and Aya were totally comfortable with their new schools. The renovations on the Paul Perlis home were finished and the word put out among the alumni that there was a house for sale on South Marlin Circle. During the second week of October, a full price offer was made by Barry and Gina "cockmilker" Rosedahl and it was accepted, especially since Paul remembered Barry from when he was living on the block as a kid. After Barry had gone away to college and then settled down out of state, where he met his wife Gina at a BDSM munch, and his vanilla sister Rhonda had been married off, Barry's parents moved their real estate business to Florida. Barry transfered his family to California just after his son Donny, who was now 20 and a college sophomore, was born, where they lived in a ranch style home in a town north of the one South Marlin Circle was located in. Because the Rosedahls thought it would be better to let their other three kids finish the current school semester before finally moving in, they allowed this branch of the Perlis clan to take their time choosing a new residence in the city of their choice and at a price they thought was reasonable before they moved out.

The three children still living at the Rosedahl residence were Alissa, 17, who was 5'7" and 135 pounds with D cups, softly defined hips and proportionate legs, big, expressive green eyes with dark  brown hair down to the small of her back and a shaved pussy; Tina, 15, was 5'4" and 115 pounds with C cups, a tapered torso, shapely legs, dark brown hair that she wore in a pixie cut and she was shaved, too; Anita, 11, was 5'0" and 95 pounds, green eyes that almost seemed translucent, brown hair down to her ass and she still hadn't gone through puberty yet. The two older girls were already on the pill.

Akihiro was excited when he was told by Jeff that a girl his age was moving into the neighborhood. However, he was still two and a half years away from even being able to receive restraint training, so he wasn't going to be able to do much with her if they hooked up for another three years at the soonest. He was becoming more and more interested in girls and more popular at Sunny Heights Elementary School, but he wasn't interested in vanilla girls because of the necessity of keeping secrets. Also, because of his youth and immaturity, he wasn't even sure of how he was going to be able to broach the subject of BDSM anyway. Hell, he really wasn't even that sure how to talk to girls for that matter.

When the sale on Alan's new home closed in early November and they could move in, a going away party was thrown for him and his wife. The Rosedahls began moving their furniture into the South Marlin Circle abode on December 1st but didn't move themselves in until mid-January just as the fall semester of their daughters' respective schools was ending. Once they were now permanently ensconced on the block, there was a welcoming party thrown for them. At that party, Akihiro met Anita and they went off to a corner of the backyard of the Stevenson residence, which is where the party was, and he filled her in on the school she would be going to. He also offered to teach her guitar, an offer which she took him up on. He was transfixed by her eyes and was thus in love with her right from the outset. Anita was glad to have a friend already in her new school to make the transition to it easier.

She was enrolled in Sunny Heights Elementary the first day of the spring semester. By the end of that week, her and Akihiro were a couple. Some of the other girls who had designs on him became jealous and Anita caught some shit for being a kind of interloper since she snagged him after just transferring in. Fortunately, kids that age being what they are, the resentment was soon forgotten. Their school was in front of that  pocket park that was adjacent to Ethan and Aya's middle school, so the four of them walked together each morning and Anita was taught the ins and outs of her new neighborhood.

But the most liked new addition to the neighborhood, at least in terms of sheer lust, was Alissa, who facially resembled a younger Tawny Kitaen. As soon as she walked into the Westfield residence for their homework session and stripped, all the boys eyes popped out at her mouth watering tits, which wear teardrop shaped and had large light brown aureolae, and an equally inviting bare snatch. They all immediately got hard ons and all the owned female subbies soon found themselves being commanded to relieve their masters' sperm heavy balls with their mouths. This went on for weeks and most of the girls were giving bjs every day of the week as Alissa crossed their masters' minds.

They all thought that Yuki was amazing, but there was something just a little more confrontational about Alissa's looks. They seemed to DEMAND that you peep her whereas Yuki's aura was more mild. The consensus was that if Alissa was a professional domina she would clean up. However, she was a subbie, though an unowned one.

The entrance of the Rosedahls had one other effect: during a block Christmas party the previous December, Yoriko was home for the holidays. She noticed Donny rightaway and thought he looked like Dave Grohl. He was 5'11" and 170 pounds and in his second year of college with a goatee and dark brown hair that extended to his shoulders. She had someone introduce them and they spent the rest of the night talking to each other and doing some making out. Things escalated from there and her virginity became past tense before she had to leave for school again. They kept in touch after that and were more or less having a long distance relationship. What he liked about her was that under that cute, prim mask of hers was a girl who really liked having it taken to her. She had considered getting off the pill since she didn't have anyone at school, but was glad she stayed on it when she met Donny so that she didn't have to experience her first time having sex with a condom on his cock. He fucked her repeatedly and made her swallow many loads of his cum before she had to fly back east. She had given blowjobs before that and, at the insistence of her father, could deep throat. But she would never let boys get into her pussy until Donny did.

In February, Anita had her first period and with it entered puberty. Her breasts began to bud and wispy bits of hair appeared on her crotch. When Anita showed up at Mrs. Westfield's wearing period panties after the initial menstruation of her life, all the girls hugged her and said, "welcome to the club!" She was also hugged by all the boys and told she will be as beautiful as her two sisters. Akihiro asked around about how to handle this new development and got shitloads of advice, including a firm talking to from Mrs. Westfield.

Eddie's 17th birthday was a few days later and he went to Alan Perlis again to seek permission to collar the now 18 year old Yuki. Alan had been collecting information on how Eddie had handled Yuki to date and what kind of maturity he was displaying. Yuki herself said that Eddie was super tender with her even as he used her for his own pleasure and he was doing well in school (but then again, all the neighborhood children did). "While I'm not crazy about doing this, I'll take it before the board and see how they vote," Alan stated. Eddie thanked him profusely.

The linchpin of Eddie's argument was that Yuki was 18 and therefore legally capable of making decisions as to who would permanently own her. Also, he was only a year short of becoming a legal adult himself. Everyone in the association really liked her and felt protective of her, but no news had ever arisen indicating that Eddie didn't deserve her. So after some wrangling, the board approved the collaring of Yuki by Eddie, but with the proviso that he would be warned that he would be watched closely and would be penalized by denial of his right to lead if he did anything that was emblematic of abuse, incompetence or stupidity. On February 20th, he got the phone call telling him to proceed. He was overjoyed. Yuki had no idea he was about to collar her.

That next weekend, he took her to Ms. McMullen's beauty shop and had her hair and nails done. From there, they went back to his house,  where they chilled out in his room for a few hours watching tv. What she didn't notice was that everybody had snuck out of the house and they were alone. Then he suddenly got up around 6 p.m. and pulled a red cheongsam out of the closet along with a pair of red open toed four inch heels. "Breedinghole, put this on," he directed. She did as she was told. He had her turn around and he brushed her hair as she stood silently. She was excited to see where this would lead. No doubt, it would be something totally unpredictable, she thought to herself and her heart was racing a bit. He took out a long length of red silk rope and pulled her hair into a pony tail and encased her locks, which were now at the middle of her back, in a hair corset. "Breedinghole will stand here in inspection position until further notice," he intoned. She stood at attention as he went into the backyard and called Alan Perlis. "Okay Master Alan, I'm going to bring her over now. Please have everyone remain quiet until we arrive. "Boy Master Eddie, she's going to get the biggest surprise of her life," he said while he warned everyone to be still and not make any noises.

Eddie ended the call and came back inside the house. He changed into a dark blue suit. He walked into the bedroom and told Yuki to take his hand. She tried to raise her hand, but Eddie ordered her to remain quiet for now. She was concerned that she was going out in public and didn't  have any underwear on at all even while wearing a slit skirt. They went into the darkness of the night, slowly walking over to her house. He opened the door, which should have been her first clue something was up because he never went into anyone's house without knocking. He told her to stand for inspection once more. He looked her over and then placed a blindfold that had been left on a nearby table for him on her head. Now she knew something was up, but what?

He leisurely walked her up the stairs and guided her through the open doorway of her dad's playroom. He stood behind her and grabbed her arms and pushed her up the aisle that was surrounded on either side by the block's residents who were siting in folding chairs. The room was illuminated in candlelight. "Stop right here breedinghole," he ordered. "Yes Master." "Breedinghole will keep her eyes looking forward when I remove the blindfold and she will also remain silent," he advocated. 'Yes Master. Thank you Master." She could hear her voice echoing around the room. He slowly slid the blindfhold off and she immediately noticed the candlelight Then she recognized Alan Perlis standing right in front of her on a makeshift altar. Yuki had never been to a collaring ceremony before and wondered what the hell was going on.

Eddie unzipped both parts of the cheongsam and they slipped to the floor, leaving Yuki naked. He had her step out of the heels and the clothing, which he neatly folded and placed on the floor next to her. Then he stood by her side.

"All will rise," Alan Perlis announced. "Yuki Karen Yamanori, you have been summoned before the board and general membership of the South Marlin Circle Bondage Club tonight not only to mark your entrance into adulthood, but your lifetime enslavement to your Master, Edward Ian Johannson. Master Edward, you will inform the membership of your rationale for honoring Yuki with your collar."

"President Perlis and ladies and gentlemen of the South Marlin Circle Bondage Club and esteemed guests: last August, this humble soul was blessed by the submission of Yuki Karen Yamanori to him and, as time has passed, my love for her beauty, intelligence, sweetness and obedience has only grown. Yuki has become indispensable to my life and has served me with all her heart and made me look good to the community. Even when I used her for my pleasure it was always with a deep abiding love and care in my heart. Therefore, should the board so indulge me, I bestow unto you Yuki Karen Yamanori this collar as a sign of your permanent servitude to me. I also pledge to care for and protect you. Do you accept my collar  and submit yourself under my hand for as long as you shall live?" "Yes Master. Thank you Master," Yuki agreed, while stammering through her tears. "Master Alan, does the board and the membership approve of my taking forever this slave?"

"All those who approve say yes," Alan pronounced. About 75% of those assembled were copacetic with the motion. "All those who object say no." About a fourth gave a negative indication,  mostly due to Eddie's age. "Master Edward, on behalf of all of our great membership your motion is carried by majority vote and Yuki Karen Yamanori is now your bonded and collared slave. The board sincerely hopes that she will carry her duties out with dignity and a glad heart and warns her Master that he will also display the necessary dignity and self control as well as judiciously care for his property lest he lose his right to leadership. Do you understand Yuki?" "Yes Master Alan. Thank you Master Alan." "Master Edward, do you understand your responsibilities in having this life so granted to you?" "Yes Master Alan. Thank you Master Alan. Thank you everyone."

Eddie buckled the collar on to her neck and stood her up and had her turn to face the audience. He smiled widely and she felt embarrassed being the center of attention like that, but she was jumping for joy inside that she was now officially owned for all  time. He took her hand and they went downstairs into the living room. Eddie hugged Yuki and kissed her passionately. "I love you Yuki. I hope tonight's ceremony made you very happy," he stated. "Master, I don't know what to say. This is such a shock. But thank you! I am honored and will always serve you with a grateful heart." "I know you will. Now the others would like to greet you, so please...." he said, pointing into the middle of the living room. As she walked into the center of the room, she was surrounded by well wishers and hugged and kissed dozens of times. Eddie got high fived by all the other Masters. "Dude, nice job landing Yuki! She rocks!" Jeff told him. "Please take care of my daughter," Noriko and Koji pleaded. Eddie said he would treat her like gold. "That was a beautiful ceremony Eddie and having her come in wearing that dress, nice touch," Alissa evaluated. "She looked stunning in it." Aya was thrilled for Yuki. "I hope Ethan does that for me someday, " she bubbled. Keiko hugged Eddie and expressed hope that he and Yuki would watch over her and Dalton. Dalton was insulted by that and Keiko had to explain that in the culture she comes from, it is a common request from juniors to have their seniors help them keep from doing stupid things by handing down some timely advice. Dalton still wasn't sure he was mollified but it wasn't worth antagonizing Keiko over. Her intention was to be nice and take a humble position, which is a good attitude for a subbie.

The living room emptied out while everybody went for the food,  some of which was prepared by Yuki's parents and sisters. Eddie's folks took him aside and told him how much they love Yuki and are thrilled he is bringing her into the family. However,  they also cautioned him that he was still young and to try to think before he speaks or acts because merely being collared isn't going to keep her from leaving if he fucks up. He thanked them for the advice, but was privately thinking, "well, duh."

By midnight, Eddie was mentally worn out due to the stress of hiding his plans from Yuki, stressing over the ceremony going as he hoped it would and then just dealing with everybody at the party. Yuki was emotionally exhausted. The collaring was indeed a surprise and then she, as women are wont to do, was overthinking about pretty much everything surrounding their relationship. Then she was trying to accommodate everyone, including her Master, to keep them happy. Eddie came and got her, took her upstairs and had her get dressed and then walked her to his house. They showered and went to bed too knackered to cap the festivities with a good old fashioned fuck.
