Unknown - Captured by Ann

"By the way" Ronald explained, " the fee for a six week schedule… and I would venture that for someone in your position they would charge $25,000 or so. The only problem would be if you wanted to watch Ann's traini ng, for which you would have to pay an additional $5,000 so that things could be set up so that you could observe her training without being a source of distraction."

"In many ways, it is the re-education of one partner to find new and different ways to please the other party to the relationship. It operates by stripping away barriers to communication and other inhibiting qualities.

The graduates of Davenport are taught that their gift is the ability to listen to and to obey their partners with enthusiasm and inspiration. I'll show you what I mean."

At that Richard took a banana that was in a bowl of fruit that was on the dining room table and told Gloria to "use it." Without further direction or prodding, Gloria took the banana and insinuated it between her legs.

She then bunched up her dress to show that the banana, to the extent of at least a third, was now impaled within her.

That bit of show and tell was the end of our discussion that evening concerning Davenport. As Ann and I bade Gloria and Ronald farewell, we both knew, without ever giving voice to the thought, that Ann would be going to

Davenport.

Davenport – December 1988 – January 1989

"I want to go to Davenport" Ann acknowledged without being asked as we returned to our apartment from Ronald and Gloria's.

"I know. I'll pursue it." I answered.

After checking with Ronald by telephone the next day, I found out that the next step was to arrange for an interview with the Administrator of Davenport. Ronald expedited the arrangements for that interview which were to be conducted at Davenport's New York City office the following week. The Administrator called and gave me a brief set of instructions.

The interview was to be conducted at 4:00 p.m. on a Thursday. The preceding Tuesday Ann was to present herself for a physical examination at a Park Avenue internist. If there were a health problem detected, I was told,

Ann would not be accepted.

Ann and I arrived at the designated office for the interview at the appointed hour. Ann had taken care in selecting her dress for the interview. She wore a short black skirt which, as she strode, revealed the tops of h er stockings and the garters holding them in place. Ann's blouse was made of white satin and, quite naturally, she was braless. As I helped her on with her fur, I complimented her on how beautiful she looked.

Davenport's New York offices were in the ground floor of an east- side townhouse. The door was answered by a severe looking woman who promptly ushered us in to an interior room. There a man of about fifty rose to greet me and, ignoring Ann, motioned for me to sit in a small couch. He had introduced himself saying that he was the Administrator of Davenport. Ann sat next to me.

The Administrator took a seat in a wingback chair near the couch. At that point a stunning young woman entered the room and asked me, but not Ann, if I wanted any refreshments. I declined. The woman then nodded and kn elt on the floor next to the Administrator. I studied her appearance. She had long, lustrous blonde hair that seemed to be her natural color. She was wearing a one piece black knit legging-type outfit under which there was no hint of underwear. The Administrator seemed to absent-mindedly run right hand through her hair, as if he were petting a cat, while he reviewed a file.

The Administrator looked up and spoke: "Well everything seems to be in order, you are well recommended, her health is excellent, she may well be a good candidate for Davenport."

"What exactly will happen at Davenport?" I asked.

"I prefer to speak generally and that for several reasons. First, the regime is flexible, we look to acheive our goals through measures and exercises that are suited for each candidate. Second, there is an element of s urprise, or confronting the unexpected, that is important, so I don't think it wise to provide advance notice to our candidates as to what they will experience. Suffice it to say that over the years we have developed pro grams which are designed to instil and reinforce in our graduates the skills, techniques and perceptions which will render them highly able to be of complete and satisfying service to their sponsors."

The Administrator continued. "There are some standards that are individualized which I will discuss with you outside of the candidate's presence so that I can have your preferences respected and incorporated into the can didate's training."

As the Administrator went on to describe some of the logistical and timing issues I looked down at the blonde kneeling at the Administrator's feet. She seemed to be staring directly accross towards Ann who was next to m e. As I followed the direction of her gaze it was clear that she was focussed directly between Ann's legs. Ann, I am sure, noticed this too, as she sat with her legs spread apart just enough to provide an unobstructed v iew.

The Administrator undertook to speak with me about some of the issues which we needed to resolve in private. "Chloe, take the candidate out to the hallway as I wish to confer in private" he instructed the blonde. Chloe rose as did Ann and the two women exited the room in silence.

"What are the areas in which improvement is needed?" he asked.

"Actually, I am not sure there are any that I can identify" I replied.

"Well let me inquire as to certain issues which come up which will bear on her training and our arrangements. Do you want to join us at Davenport and observe her instruction?"

"I hope to."

"That can be accomodated, of course you will have no contact with the candidate during her stay. You will find our accomodations quite comfortable for you and we can attend to your needs, but we have special training ro oms and observation positions so that you can see what we do, but the candidate will not be aware of your presence."

"How do you feel about the candidate relating to other people?"

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"Part of our training requires that the candidate better learn how to service you and your designees. Do you object to her being used by our staff and trainers-everyone is quite carefully screened medically."

"Other women have never been an issue for me, but it is only rarely that I have shared her with other men."

"I think you will find that it is wise to give us latitude in that respect, and in that regard it will probably be most constructive that you are in attendance so that if you wish to emphasize or de- emphasize an aspect of her training, you can advise us accordingly."

The Administrator turned to a new subject. "Do you have any grooming preferences, do you want her to be shaved, do you want any adornments, body art, jewelry or piercings effected?"

"She already shaves, but actually I am glad you raised that subject because I would have if you hadn't. I saw that you pierced the nipple of one of the people who attended Davenport. I don't want her pierced there, or anywhere else for that matter."

"That's certainly your prerogative."

"Now, as to schedule and fees. We can pick up the candidate as early as tomorrow and we will return her in about six weeks. It is desirable that she not be menstruating during the first week to ten days of the training period."

"Tomorrow maybe too soon. I think we should wait another twenty-four hours. She finished her period last week so I know that is not an issue."

"Our fee will be $5,000 a week for the candidate and an additional $500 a day for each day that you spend with us. If the candidate completes her course satisfactorily, you will be given the opportunity to join our soci ety for an annual fee of $10,000. We'll explain what that entails if it becomes appropriate."
