The night of the slave's delivery, dinner ends and Guillermo Mendoza stands up; Vergara and his son Saulo do the same, the three men converse while walking towards the living room of the residence.

Stefano picks up the plates and cleans the crumbs from the tablecloth - Come here, 710! - he hears his father calling him and the slave immediately stops what he's doing and walks quickly to the living room.

-Serve us whiskey- Mendoza orders the slave, who diligently walks to where the liquor cabinet is and serves three glasses, places them on a silver tray, and walks towards where the men in suits are seated, kneels while holding out his arms in an uncomfortable position.

Saulo studies him from head to toe without giving him much importance, Stefano feels his gaze and feels sunk, this 18-year-old will soon be his owner "I'll have to change his diapers" he says to himself while keeping his arms extended.

Guillermo intentionally makes him wait in that position - you kept your word - Vergara says to Mendoza - you really trained him well.

Stefano learned the protocol the hard way, his father had to fulfill his responsibilities as a senator. He ordered the servants to leave the house for two months, warning them that he would pay them for that time without working.

Before going to the senate, he left Stefano a list of tasks to do. When he returned, he ordered Stefano to kneel.

-Lick the floor- he ordered, Stefano raised his supplicant gaze, he still had many humiliations to learn to obey without complaining.

-Do it, if it's clean you don't have to feel disgusted- Guillermo knew Stefano better than he knew himself, he knew that in the part where he ordered him to lick, Stefano had hardly passed the broom.

Stefano licked the floor until his father told him to stop - follow me on all fours- he ordered and Stefano obeyed.

-There's dust, lick- he ordered, pointing to the corner of a room, then he made him lick a whole piece of furniture that he had forgotten to dust... room by room Stefano licked the areas where he had not dedicated enough attention.

-It hasn't been bad for the first time- he said when he finished reviewing the last room, he looked satisfied - I think you're going to be a good slave after all.

-Can I go to sleep, father?- Stefano asked - I'm tired.

Guillermo lifted Stefano's arms and gave him a very affectionate hug - you can't call me father, you've already lost that right- he said somewhat sadly.

Stefano nodded, letting himself be hugged, the feeling of being naked in his father's arms, who was dressed in an elegant suit, made him feel particularly pampered and loved.

-We're alone- Stefano said, seeking affection, Guillermo held him tighter.

-You can't do things to be seen or heard- Guillermo said - I only have these months to make sure you'll be a good slave and that they won't end up selling you to ...
