“The position comes with responsibilities,” Prince Hendren continued, his eyes searching my face. “You would represent the Federation’s ideals in the most intimate way possible. Your body, your submission, your very existence would be a symbol of what we offer to the galaxy. Can you accept that burden?”
I considered his words carefully, feeling the weight of what he was proposing. To become not just his personal property, but a living embodiment of Magisterian principles—it would mean surrendering any remaining privacy, any last vestige of an outward self that existed apart from his authority.
“Viola,” he said, his voice taking on the formal cadence of a legal proceeding, “do you consent to become my consort? To accept the elevation and the responsibilities that come with it?”
I looked into his eyes, seeing the man who had broken me down and rebuilt me, and I looked inside me, too, and saw that even if my outward being always reflected my submission, the world inside me would remain complicated; truly, I would never have to choose between performance and reality. My power lay untouched within me, all the greater for my belonging to the prince.
“Yes, Master,” I said. “Oh, yes.”
