Lady Lita always caused a ripple effect when she went out in public. With her luxurious, blazing red hair, stunning, hypnotic violet eyes, perfect alabaster skin, classically sculptured features, and her heart-stopping hourglass figure, all eyes were drawn to her in utter fascination. She reveled in that power and she often chose an onlooker for enslavement, just to keep her skills fresh and keep herself entertained. But tonight she had a more specific goal in mind. She had a special visitor arriving soon and she wanted to find a new necklace that her visitor would find thoroughly enchanting. She knew she didn’t need such things, but she enjoyed  using different methods and tactics and tools. Besides, she had been so busy with The LLE that she was craving some pure fun.

 

She caught sight of a small antique shop that had some lovely jewelry displayed in it’s window and decided to get a closer look. As she stepped inside, hearing the delicate bell over the door announcing her entrance, she stopped and looked around as her eyes adjusted to the darker interior. She saw a small, balding, shy looking man wearing glasses working behind the counter. He seemed distracted as he did not raise his head at her entrance, so she decided to just browse the store a bit.

 

Almost immediately she was drawn to a display of lovely crystal necklaces hanging in front of a light, causing them to reflect colorful splashes of light in a very delightful way. Yes, one of these would be perfect, and she saw the right one very quickly. It was round with hundreds of tiny, perfectly cut facets that worked in concert to draw the eye toward the center. She took the necklace off the display for a closer look and saw there was no price attached. Not that the price mattered to her, she could no doubt afford it, but the lack of a price tag gave her an inspiration. She loved getting gifts and she loved teaching others that only the good of The LLE truly mattered, so why not combine two things she loved and have a little fun with the shopkeeper. She smiled and walked seductively toward the counter with the crystal dangling from one hand.

 

Lady Lita smoothed her dress over her body, leaned in halfway over the counter, then held the crystal up before the shopkeeper’s eyes before speaking. “You have a lovely shop here sweetie, truly some wonderful items for sale. How much is this beautiful crystal I wonder?”

 

The man looked up in surprise, looking from the crystal to Lita, then blushing, quickly looked back to the crystal. “Oh, uh, I don’t know offhand. There’s no tag? No, no, of course not, or you wouldn’t have asked, silly of me to ask that. Let me just look it up in my system here, I’m sure it’s there.” Then he quickly stuck his nose into his computer screen to begin the search.

 

Lita smiled wickedly, clearly seeing how shy and nervous her beauty made him. “No need to rush sweetie, you seem in such a hurry, that can’t be healthy, always on the go, always rushing about, working so very hard. Why don’t you just take a moment to slow down with me? I wanted to ask a few questions about the crystal anyway, so we can have a nice, quiet chat, before you go rushing off to do more work, all right?”

 

He looked up from the screen and was charmed by her lovely violet eyes and sweet smile. He realized that he was tired and he could use a break. He could think of no better way to spend his time than chatting with this gorgeous woman before him. “Oh, well, I guess I can… There are no other customers at the moment, and it does get very wearing, running the shop alone.”

 

Lita nodded her head in sympathy and smiled even brighter, then began to swing the crystal gently from side to side. “Yes, I’m sure it does sweetie. Have you ever looked closely at this lovely crystal? Have you ever held it up to the light, letting it gently swing, back and forth, back and forth, before your eyes. If not, you’ve missed seeing it in it’s full glory, so why not see it now, as I hold it up to the light. See the way the light shines off the crystal, all the different surfaces causing the light to flash away in so many colors, as it slowly swings back and forth in my dainty hand. Isn’t it just so very relaxing, so very soothing, so completely fascinating, watching it swing from side to side, flashing so many colors. See as a bit of red flashes from it, then a bit of blue, there’s a yellow flash… So many lovely, relaxing colors, as it flashes in your eyes, swinging side to side before your heavy, tired eyes.” She lowered her voice to a more intimate level as she watched his eyes following the crystal’s every move. “You said it yourself… how very hard it is… running this shop alone… leaving you so very tired… your mind and body… feeling so heavy, so slow… needing and wanting so much to relax with me now, just for a bit. Wouldn’t that be nice sweetie?”

 

His eyes were glazed over, the lids half-closed already, his shoulders slumping heavily. As he answered, his speech was heavy and slow, clearly a difficult task for him. “Yessss… nice to relax with you…”

 

Lita’s face lit up with a serene smile of pleasure as she saw him fall prey to her skills. She so enjoyed watching them fall fully under her spell. “That’s right, it feels so very nice, so wonderful, to relax for me now, allowing your mind to slow, your thoughts to quiet, as your body feels so very heavy. And there’s nothing else you need to do right now, only listen to my sweet, soft voice, watching the beautiful, flashing crystal, as it swings back and forth. Every flash of color relaxing your mind even more, every word I speak pushing your thoughts further and further away. You don’t need to think now, you’re too busy relaxing, enjoying the wonderful way that I make you feel. Enjoying the wonderful, heavy way your body feels, enjoying how very sleepy your mind has become, so empty of thoughts, and worries, and stress. You don’t need any of that now, you have me, and my beautiful crystal to look after you dear, and that’s really all you need. You will find that only I can relieve the terrible stress your shop places upon you, and you’re only too happy to give me presents, like this lovely crystal, to show your gratitude to me for taking care of your mind for you. You will feel the stress, building in you, day after day, and you will know that you must contact me for the relief you seek. Now, when you wake, you will remember my offer to relieve the awful stress you’re under, and presenting me with the crystal as a sign of gratitude. I am leaving  my business card right here on your counter sweetie. You will know that you must come by to see me at the address on my card when you close the shop this evening, as we have so much more to discuss about how I can make you feel better, and what you can do in return for me.” She then moved toward the door, stopping briefly halfway there and snapping her fingers as she gave him a command. “Wake, wake and feel refreshed.” Then she left the shop, smiling happily and admiring her new crystal. Yes, she definitely needed to get out to do such things more often. She missed this sort of fun.
