Manipulation

Control Tightens

Natalie had already passed the running of the house and trust fund to Erin and had now signed over Power of Attorney it was not clear if it was Natalie's idea or Erin's, either way Erin now had complete legal power over her Mother. Erin now had control of everything including her Mother's bank accounts. Further to that Julia was seriously considering asking Erin to do the same thing for her. Natalie now got an allowance in a newly opened account that Erin could peruse at her leisure. Julia knew that should she ask for she would have to agree to the same. But Julia reasoned that she had nobody to inherit what she had and Erin was totally trustworthy. Charlotte had already  done all this and although she could not now do anything with her account without Erin's permission she could keep track. Her finances had always been ramshackle but now the account was in rude health, without Erin's control she would have spent most it. Erin had pointed out that future financial security was essential since nobody knew what could happen in the future.

When Erin agreed to Charles being Charlotte, full time, a legally drawn up contract gave Erin absolute control in all matters, it was on the face of it a life contract but there was a clause to allow either side to end it with a months notice. It meant that Charlotte could revert to Charles if she wished to. Her bank account would be returned to her and the Trust would would pay for accommodation since it would no longer be practical for Charlotte or Charles to remain in the home. Erin pondered the thought of presenting Natalie and Julia with something similar, the final piece of the control puzzle. Erin would be a liar if she said it did not give her a buzz, being in control for her was an aphrodisiac, Charlotte may well be on duty later. The difference between Emma/Natalie and Erin was that Emma spent all her adult life pretending to be strong as a survival instinct whereas Erin was genuinely strong and enjoyed being in control, even as a child Erin could manipulate her Mother and had found it easy to influence others.

A few days later Erin summoned Natalie and Julia to the office and said they should dress in their little girl outfits. They were both excited to be dressing that way when it was not Sunday and worried that there might be some sort of punishment coming their way. In the office they sat on a couple of lower chairs that had been found in one of the out buildings. This put them at an immediate psychological disadvantage. Erin decided that she would talk to them in character 'girls you love your regression days be they like now or school don't you?' they readily agreed that they did, 'and have I ever said you cannot do it?' they agreed that she hadn't 'you also like your maid days?' indeed they do, Erin lowered her voice to a conspiratorial tone 'and you like a little spanking don't you' they giggled getting into the role. 'but it gives me a problem', the girls looked concerned, afraid that Erin would close it all down 'for more than half the week now I have to make all decisions and take all responsibilities', their faces fell, she was going to shut it all down 'I thought it would make more sense to have total control for all days, at the moment none of us know who exactly controls things everyday', she let that all sink in and could tell they had no idea where this was going. 'So I am going to offer you both the same contract that Charlotte has' and read out the terms. Two relieved girls signed, nothing will change as far as they could see. Erin added 'Julia, I will grant your request about Power of Attorney, a solicitor will be here tomorrow to get it moving', Julia beamed and they both curtseyed on leaving.

After the girls had skipped out of the office Erin took a deep breath, that was easier than she though it would be. Erin paged Charlotte a code which meant Mistress needs her bitch.
