~~~~~~~~~~~~



He often goes to the tea houses, and brings with him a few friends to enjoy the company of Geisha. He was a well-known business man who dealt with business in the states every once in a while. He had enough money, he knew, to support a Geisha well, should he find one. He was very selective, however, for his unique intrerests are not just for any Geisha. He seeked one who was submissive in nature, not just because she was trained. He seeked one who he knew would enjoy the intricite pleasure of pain.

It was in an older tea house in which he found this girl. She was a young Geisha indeed, one who probably just got out of being a maiko. Her face held calm and gentleness, her lips a small smile. She wore a simple kimono, for she was doing a tea ceremony, for his friends and he, being the main guest, was the person she first drew her attention too.

He watched her elegant movements, her precise actions, her perfect balance. He watched her expression behind her mask; of which she hid well. Her eyes, like glass tiger's eyes themselves, shined brightly off the soft glow of the light in the room.

When she had made the tea, he took her offer and drank of it, after turning the bowl to admire the beauty. He then decided at that moment, that she was the Geisha he wanted. She had the discipline, the submission, the heart, the mind, the soul for being his. He thought then, of the western's view on Geisha, that they were prostitues. It was not true, but he could not help but think of Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel series of a courtesan, so beautiful, so intelligent, she was the best well known augestiutte and courtesan, as well as a spy for her own Master.

He always wanted a Geisha that had such a mind as Phedre's, as well as the ability to feel pain and pleasure as one. Just like with Phedre, it would be a curse and blessing.

A Geisha is known to keep secrets of business, this is why they were always so welcome to meetings. Their own trained minds are good for discussion. This girl, in particular, was his Phedre, without the sexual intentions. She could still seduce any she wished, of that he was sure. She would still have the mind of intelligence, the fiery heart beneath her gentleness, the determined soul to please her Patron.



It did not take long for him to send her a gift of a kimono, a blue furisode kimono for formal places, like important nights in tea houses. He visited her once a week, gave her a place, and gave her more kimono. She seemed pleased enough with his gifts to her. In this, in the time spent with her, he could see the submission burning deep within her. He knew soon, she would be ready to be told the truth, be told of what he would wish of her.

It was after a few more meetings with his friends, when he took her to his place for tea, and there, he told her of this desire.

As he told her, he saw her sense of intrigue strong, her submissive self rising to the idea. He did not explain that like Phedre, she would be experiencing pain and find it pleasurable.

A few weeks later, again, after a meeting in a tea house amongst his friends, who all also became regular clients of hers, he took her to a small unmarked building. His wife knew what was going on, and she was happy that he had found a Geisha whom he liked well. She had helped set up the room in the building so all would be prepared, for he hadn't the time earlier today. He was planning for a trip to the states that would take a few weeks to plan, which, was what time he had.

When he lead her into the room, she was quite surprised to see what was laying there. He mostly would use the cane on her, he figured, at least at first.

The next few weeks, he saw her grow more and more into her submission, and stronger in her strength of mind, her new aura shining seductively and mysteriously, the sweetness still there in her eyes. Her movements were even more refined, though they were perfect even when he met her. Her dances were more alluring and made all go into trance at her mesmerizing sway. He became proud of her abilities, and saw other men desired her so much, more than any other Geisha he has laid his eyes on. He knew back then that he chose well; he knew now that he chose perfectly.

It was the next day in which he called off the meeting with his friends and she, for a surprise. His deal went well with the americans and their business.

He went to a tea house that a Geisha was selling, and asked her to speak with him. She smiled as they walked down the street to another tea house. She needed it off her hands, for she decided to go live in the states with an american. The price for it was reasonable. Out of the corner of his eye, he thought he saw her across the street, fans in hand, but once he looked again, the Geisha had disappeared.

A few days later, he went to the home he bought for her, a note on the door, saying that his special Geisha was now back at the Okiya. Worried that she over-reacted, or felt bad for the missed meeting, for he never missed or was late to one before, he wrote her a note explaining what he had done, and found one of her Onesans to give it to her Okasan of the Okiya, so that way she would get it.

It was not too long, when the girl met him again, a soft and loving smile on her lips. It was the first time he saw such a smile from her, and he was very pleased that she was happy. He felt the feeling of being such a proud Danna of his submissive girl, his now very successful girl that he patroned. That night, he gave her a beating for having a slight doubt despite the note, then lovingly caressed her face, the closest to a sexual encounter as they would have, and in her eyes saw again her submission grow bright within her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~ NOT FINISHED!



She sits in the tea house, her role both Geisha and teishu, at ths hour. Two guests enter the room from following her. She smiles gently, for no words were to be spoken. Everything was brought in, and everything set. The main guest tonight, there was word that he would be this Geisha's Danna from her okiya.

She gracefully takes the chaki out of the chawan...



It was so long ago, when she had met her Danna, it seemed. It was at that tea ceremony, after it was finished, and talk of the ceremony was concluded, when he spoke to her of his proposal.

He had stayed after the others left that day, and he allowed her change into another kimono, not the Iromuji kimono from earlier, but now a furisode kimono, of french ultramarine blue, with the design of flowers and clouds, the obi red and white. It was so far her best kimono.

He looked at her in it, as she sat in seizan, before bowing low to him, her fingers a triangle on the floor, her nose just barely touching the floor.



But now? Now he was here, and he taught her more than one could suspect a Geisha to know. She has been a strong-minded, conversational Geisha enough, a submissive to her Okiya. But he taught her, a way of submissiveness that she was lucky to ever know, for now though she was still independant, she would not wish to ever see him go. She would be needing him in her life. She would be lost without him. She had her sisters in the Okiya to keep her company, but this man who became her Danna, fulfilled her like no other. He took care of her, sponsored her with beautiful kimono of red, blue, white, silver, peach, green, orange, black, and gold. He paid off her debt of schooling to the Okiya, where she is always welcomed back should she need a home, and gave her a seperate home from his, though close by. His authority as not just her Danna, but her love drew her to be submissive in a different way.

Though being a Geisha owned her life, he owned her heart and he amused himself with her mind, her talents. He need not even ask to have these things, though, others paid dearly for her company to a party.

Love brought on this submission, not just training. The girl wanted to serve him, to the point that she would have left her life as a Geisha, just for him. Though, he had a wife, whom he revered, he always sought her company, for although wives were wives, they were mostly a breeding toy, and Geisha were the very definitions of beauty, grace, wit, and love.

He taught her of a story of the Kushiel series, in which beauty, intelligence and talent was most prized in the land of Terre D'Ange. He spoke of her of this girl, Phedre, who was not only a courtesan, but a spy, who had to fulfill her debt and finish her marque, a symbol put on the backs of the servant of Namah. Phedre was what was called an augestiutte, a person who felt pain and pleasure as one. It reminded me, that Geisha, in order to please others, and to live the way they did, pain and their lives went hand in hand. He explained to her, that maybe, he would teach her to be more like Phedre, not in the sexual sense, for that was not the way of a Geisha, but in all other ways; more rounded in anything than before. There was also a gift he wanted to give her; the ability to feel pain and pleasure as one, to submit to the torture he gave, though sweet it was. The Geisha accepted with an interest; pain has been her life, but it would be nice to learn to take pleasure from it.

He would see her at least once a week, in which he would take her to a small little unmarked building in a back, and there, that was where he would teach her what he wanted of her. Soon, her submission became not just from her art, but from her very soul, heart, and mind, the things he owned of hers.

She could remember the lashes she got from the cane, but no marks laid upon her skin to remind her. Her heart pleaded for both the pain and the pleasure, her body relished the feel, her soul feeling whole as he Dominated her with his wishes. Though, he never gave any sexual demand for any price.



A few months has passed, and the girl was so needing to submit, submitted more to her work, submitted more to her Danna, submitted more to her determination to be the best she could be. She studied even harder every day, to please and honor her Okiya and her Danna.



One day in which she was scheduled to meet her Danna with a group of his friends, she recieved a message from Okasan, saying that he had cancelled the meeting for today. She sighed in sadness, wondering at the situation, for her Danna never missed or was even late for a meeting with her.

She decided to spend the day shopping for a new set of fans, needing new ones for a special event that was scheduled but a few weeks hence of now. Her kimono would be the blue furisode that she had first obtained from her Danna, for he was to be there that night, after his trip to the states for business.

It was then, that she saw her Danna with another Geisha, the elegant lady smiling a smile of happiness. She turned away, knowing that her Danna would not decide to no longer sponsor her; she had enough trust in him for that.

So, she ended up back to her house, to find a note, this time from one of her Onesans of her Okiya. In reading it, her thought that she just doubted in her head made a liar out of her. She sighed in more sadness, and went inside to pack her things. It didn't take long to do so.



Back at the Okiya, she spoke with Okasan, a sweet lady who was concerned for her daughters. Okasan smiled gently, in her beautiful nature, and handed another note, this one came from her Danna himself. In reading this note, she saw that he had not stopped sponsoring her, but that he simply made a good deal in business, and would like to make her a patron-gift of her own tea house and another place to live, closer to it.

The young woman smiled with happiness for she had not lost faith in her Danna. She trusted him with her heart, mind and soul; her submission. She knew always that she was right in doing so.
