Gorean Commands and Positions

Bound By Masters Will

She was the slave who, earlier, had been used by Yellow-Knives as, in effect, a lure girl, one used to distract or, say, entrap a warrior. Cotanka had been fortunate. He had not been killed. He now owned her. I did not think her lot would be an easy one. She wore the “bonds of the master’s will.” Grunt had put her in them. She lay on her stomach. Her wrists were crossed behind her. Her ankles, too, were crossed. She was “bound.” She could not rise to her feet. Yet there was not a rope or a strap on her body. She was “bound by the master’s will.” She could not move from this position unless, at the word of a free person, she was freed from it. To break the position otherwise is to be instantly slain.  BLOOD BROTHERS OF GOR; 18; Page 248

“Slave,” I said.
“Yes, Master,” she said.
“You do not seem to be sleepy,” I observed.
“No, Master,” she said.
“But it does not matter, whether you are or not,” I said.
“No, Master,” she said.
“For you are a slave,” I said.
“Yes, Master,” she said.
“Slave,” I said.
“Yes, Master,” she said.
“Crawl to me on your belly,” I said.
“Yes, Master,” she said, smiling.
“Now kneel before me,” I said, “with your knees wide, with your wrists crossed behind you, touching, as though bound.”
“Yes, Master,” she said. She was then before me, in a posture of my dictation, and, as it is said, bound by my will.
...
“I have finished it,” gasped the girl, shuddering.
“Open your mouth,” I said, “widely.”
I forced her mouth open, even more widely, with my thumbs and forefingers. I examined her mouth, closely. The sip root was gone.
She still held her wrists crossed, touching, behind her. She was still bound, as it is said, by the master’s will.
“You are unbound,” I told her. She removed her hands from behind her back.
She looked at me, knowing that I was her master.  BLOOD BROTHERS OF GOR; 18; Pages 318-320

“Stand,” he said. We both stood. “Belt,” he said.
I reached behind me and undo the double belt of coins, with its two loops, one high one low. The coins on the belt, as well as those on the necklace, would be counted by Mirus.
“You look well with your hands behind your back,” he said.
I looked up.
“Your hands are now bound behind your back,” he said.
“Yes, Master,” I said. I must now keep my hands or wrists in contact with one another, and behind my back. I was now “bound by the master’s will.” I could not separate my hands or wrists from one another now without permission. There are many ways, of course, of “binding by the master’s will.” The behind-the-back position is one of the simplest and loveliest. This exposes the girl, frames the beauty of her breasts and makes her helpless. That the bond is a “will bond,” too, makes clear to her the power of the master over her. Another common bond of this sort is when the girl must kneel, grasping her ankles. another is when she is forced to sit and reach forward between her legs, passing the right arm from inside the right thigh to outside and beneath the right calf, to grasp the right ankle between her legs, passing the right arm from inside the right ankle from the outside, the left arm from inside the left thigh to outside and beneath the left calf, to grasp the left ankle in the same way. In this position she is helpless and cannot rise. Too, after a time, it becomes apparent to her that she also cannot close her legs. A girl may be kept in such bonds for hours. Too, of course, she may be tied in such a position. There are also, of course, different ways of decreeing such bonds. For example, with the behind-the-back-hands-tied bond in which I had been placed I could have been informed, but had not been, that my shoulders were pulled tightly back, which, of course, forces the breasts forward for the pleasure, or attentions, of the master.
“I think I shall find it difficult to remove the belt,” I smiled, “bound as I am.”
He stood close to me, and put his arms about me. “I shall remove it,” he said.  DANCER OF GOR; 22; Page 227

I was about fifty yards behind the group of three fellows, who were sauntering east of Tarn Court. For a long time I did not detect the presence of Lavinia. Then, some seventy yards or so ahead, and to the right, near a wall, before the eastern termination of the trellised area where the morning market is held, from a patchwork of lights and shadows, I picked her out. She, after entering from the south, from a side street, had apparently hurried on ahead. In this fashion she could make certain that she would not miss the group when it passed. She would also have time to prepare herself, and regain her composure. She had positioned herself on her knees, at a wall, near a slave ring. This was fully appropriate. Too, it added to the effect which her appearance must have on all males who saw her, her beauty, her collar and a slave ring. The ring was about level with her neck. To such rings, of course, a master may fasten or chain a girl while he busies himself elsewhere. I was pleased that she had had the intelligence not to act as though she had been put at the ring “bound by the master’s will” because her leaving the ring might then have elicited astonishment or comment. There are many ways of putting a girl at the ring, “bound by the master’s will.” One typical way is to stand her at the ring and have her place her right hand behind her back through the ring and grasp her left wrist. Another typical way is to kneel her at the ring and have her put her right hand through the ring, grasping her left wrist. One of the simplest and perhaps the most typical way of “binding by the master’s will” is simply to have the girl grasp her left wrist with her right hand behind her back. Needless to say whatever amusement, pleasure or convenience this may afford a master it can be exquisitely frustrating to a slave to strive desperately and in terror to maintain this position while, say, being subjected to various attentions typical of the mastery. Most masters, in such a situation, would simply bind the girl, tying or braceleting her hands behind her back. In this fashion she knows her struggles will be unavailing, that she is helpless and cannot escape. She may then without fear or hesitation open herself completely to the joy of the subjugation, to the rapture of her conquest, to the bliss of her surrender.  MAGICIANS OF GOR; 25; Pages 388-389
