Alpha or Beta.. That is the question?


A new sub came to live with the Old Dom and his family. Almost instantly the new sub and her older counterpart began to bicker back and forth about their jobs, duties, status and positions within the family. After a few days of this the Old Dom gathered them both in a room and stripped them of their clothes and sent them outside in the rain. They both stood there wet, naked and cold as the rain fell from the sky. There bodies trembling there feet covered in mud; neither sub looked at the other as they bared their punishment.
After a few minutes the Old Dom came outside to join them. He stood there in the pouring rain; just as naked, just as cold, just as wet. The same mud that covered there feet covered his. The same cold wind chilling his bones as it did theirs. He took each subs hand and said, “Look at each other.” And they did… slowly… reluctantly. The Old Dom asked them both, “Are you both women?” “Yes Sire” they mumbled. He pulled them both close to him and said, “Are you both here to serve your purpose for the benefit of our relationship and our family?” “Yes Sire, we are.” they said again. The Old Dom pulled each of them into his chest. Each sub embraced him and then each other as he said “Do either of you truly see a difference between who you are, what you are or why you are here?” “No Sire” they replied. The Old Dom Said “Then I don’t either.”

The Old Dom led them in the house where there were two washbowls filled with warm soapy water, three chairs and dry towels laid across them. Both subs sat the Old Dom down in one of the chairs and they both began to tend to him. One washed his feet while the other dried his hair and body. After he was clean and dry the Old Dom got up and sat both of the subs down and dried their hair and body. Then he knelt down and washed their feet saying, “You call me your Master and so I am. I call you both my servants and so you are. If I am your Master and I have washed your feet as you have washed mine then it is only right that you should also wash one another’s feet with all the care and concern that I have shown you and you have shown me.” “Remember” he said as he carefully rinsed the mud from there feet, “just as the servant is not greater or lesser than their Master; neither is one servant greater or lesser than the other. In the eyes of true Mastery all are equal. So tend to each other as you would tend to me… as I tend to you. And care for each other as you would care for me… as I care for you.”

And from that point on they did.
