Naughty Stella

As I was lost in thought, Margaret returned, dressed in the new clothes I had bought for her. She looked refreshed and ready to serve, her eyes shining with devotion and eagerness.

"Margaret, please call everyone in," I said, my voice firm and commanding. "I need to discuss something with them."

Margaret nodded and quickly exited the office to gather the others. While she was gone, I considered the power I held – the ability of Absolute Hypnosis.

I could use my power to change people's perspectives, to make them my slaves, but that held no appeal for me. It was too easy, too boring. I craved the challenge, the thrill of the hunt, and the satisfaction of making someone submit to me through my own prowess and dominance, not through some supernatural ability. There was no triumph in victory without effort, no pleasure in conquest without resistance.
