I was just wondering how Marge and Delores were doing! Wait ... did I do this? Whoops!

But their deaths were so intriguing to me, not for the actual dying (although the ho-hum way Donnica stomped them was super fucking hot!), but rather why the were killed. And there were two reasons for it, actually.

First we have broken Annabel getting upset and distracted at the "poor job" the two tinies were doing on Donnica's heels. Now Annabel was always a perfectionist, but this was something else entirely. She was holding them to an impossible standard, absolute perfection, not because of her pride as a breaker (which would have been her reason for this pre-Lisa's emergence) but because they weren't "completely devoted" to serving Donnica. Annabel sees this as a privilege (one they can't refuse!), and she sees their inability to do better as sacrilege. That's why they bothered her so much here; they weren't giving Donnica what she deserved. They weren't fulfilling their purpose!

And then there's Donnica. She saw that Annabel was distracted by them, that they're existence was stressing Annabel out. So she stood up and casually stepped on them, ending their lives for Annabel's sake. Of course, Annabel's so focused on serving her master that she at first misinterprets this as Donnica being upset with her for failing to properly train the tinies.

So then we get that wholesome moment sprouting out of those two cold-blooded murders. Donnica tells Annabel to not stress out about things like that, to try and not be a perfectionist. Then she tells Annabel that she's the best (aw!). And the reaching out to put her hands on Annabel's shoulders, grounding her in a figurative sense was such a nice touch!

So those murders were born from Annabel's unyielding devotion to Donnica and new understanding of life and Donnica wanting to make things easier for Annabel. It really is amazing how such a terrible (and damned sexy) thing can come from such raw and touching emotions on the part of the giants here.

Of course, Annabel's devotion has been taken to another level now that she's broken herself. And yeah, this first segment, in particular, proved me right about that, I think. Her worry and anger over the tinies was a sign of it, but if there was any doubt, Annabel offering to clean off Donnica's foot and the foot rub that came after removed it. The pleasure Annabel took in serving Donnica is exactly what she expected out of Marge and Delores (and all tinies not named Trevor).

Oh, and slipping up and calling Donnica mistress. That was a sign, too. Although, I'm not sure which was more surprising: the casual way in which that slipped out or how unsurprised and imediately accepting Donnica was that Annabel viewed her that way.

Annabel's purpose in life is to serve Donnica and Trevor. I love how the narrative makes clear that Annabel could thrive without her job at the firm, making a killing at her breaking side job. But she stays because the only two people she really cares about are there, and she wouldn't even dream of leaving their side.

I also found it interesting how that devotion and servitude take different forms when she applies them to Donnica and Trevor. With Donnica, it's literal servitude, as in every word Donnica says is a command to be treasured and obeyed. Annabel gets pleasure out of doing whatever Donnica wants her to do. Annabel never showed an interest in feet before this chapter, but rubbing Donnica's was such a gratifying experience for her here, all because it was Donnica. She is to Donnica what she expects a tiny to be to a regular-sized person, only Donnica appreciates her devotion and actually really likes her, so it's a mutually beneficial form of servitude.

With Trevor, Annabel aims to serve through protection and helping him via an "I know best" approach. The way she found the courage to stand up to both Helena and Julianna, her two biggest bullies in the office, without the least bit of hesitation (more on that in a minute) was truly inspiring, and it was solely due to her feeling that Trevor was in real danger and in need of her protection. She was also talking over Trevor and explaining the situation with Helena to Donnica despite him not wanting her to because she thought, as a tiny, he didn't truly understand the danger he was in in that moment. She loves him, but she had to do that to him for his own good, at least in her mind.

And later, when she's spying on Donnica and Trevor's "disciplinary session," she was quite literally plotting ways in which she could help Trevor improve his technique. She knows he enjoys serving just as much as she does (that might not be exactly true, but she's not totally wrong, either), and she saw an opportunity to help him improve in that regard, something I think she would appreciate herself in equal measure, honestly.

That second segment was intense and incredibly erotic! From Julianna grabbing him and making sure he had to sit to keep from falling over from her steps and those slight movements with her shoe when he was on the ground to Helena knocking him on all fours with her casual steps, this is exactly the kind of writing that drew me into this story early on! I can't say enough about how much I loved this! Oh, and the way Helena's voice rattled his bones from so close? Very choice!

But Trevor being able to overcome all that was inspiring! And the fact that it was the thought of Annabel being bullied by these people that not only motivated the original effort but gave him the strength to intimidate a tiny-hating giant like that was ... intriguing, to say the least. He's really grown fond of Annabel, hasn't he? Could he be growing a little too fond of her? Was I right to jump ship to Team Annabel when I did? Or was this him just standing up for a treasured friend?

Or maybe this isn't a love triangle at all. Maybe our power couple will find ways to "incorporate" Annabel into some of their fun. I have no doubt Annabel would be down for that!

But man, the way Trevor took charge against Helena was impressive. He called out her performance. He basically said she's a cancer to the office. Shit, he even pointed out a loophole in her contract that could lead to her getting fired, and his semi-bluff, not being sure if he had the authority to fire her but saying he did, was gutsy as fuck! I respected all of that! And he even included telling them to leave Annabel alone in his list of demands to her.

Then he had to twist the knife. "You will obey."

I'm really starting to think something more is going on with Trevor. Maybe it's a Napoleon complex on steroids or just a need to see how far he can push things. Maybe he's a daredevil and gets a sort of high off of living on the edge by taking things too far with giants. He could even just be so high off his own success that he's trying to relive his "big" days or something. I'm not sure, but, at this point, I think this is something beyond him just trying to establish himself in the office or fend off his girlfriend's attempts to literally own him.

But again, Annabel coming in and being fearless for Trevor's sake was such a wonderful moment for her. These were people she was terrified of just a few chapters ago. Now she's telling them to shut the fuck up and ordering them around when it comes to Trevor's safety. I'm falling for this girl more and more each time we see her, at least when she isn't killing tinies (okay, okay, even then sometimes, too; what? That I Wanna Know What Love Is scene was fucking adorable!).

But you know what struck me the most about this whole thing, the one question that was in my head throughout this whole scene?

Why won't Helena use LegalSync and follow office policies?

That's really shady to me. She gave me the same vibes the first time we met her, too. I think she's up to something. Donnica's office coup may not be the last one we see in this story ...

Seeing Trevor fight Donnica hard for what he knows is best for the office was so frustrating to read! Annabel's heart was in the right place trying to defuse the situation, but fuck if she wasn't blocking him from getting through to Donnica. That's the difference between a devoted servant and someone who truly has your best interests at heart: Annabel is too obsessed with Donnica to even try to help Trevor make his point, even though I think she knows that he's probably right here. Because doing that would technically put her at odds with her master, and she can't do that. If she approached Donnica in the way she did Trevor, wanting to do what's best for him even if he might not be thrilled about it, she'd have been right there arguing alongside Trevor and probably getting their point across to her.

So that's the difference between her love for Trevor and her devotion to Donnica: She'll always protect Trevor, but she'll always let Donnica walk into whatever minefield she's about to step into, too convinced of her master's divinity to see the truth.

But Donnica being so dismissive of him, even after everything he's done to improve the office, kind of proves Trevor's point from the last chapter, doesn't it? He was pushing it when he said it, but Donnica really isn't as smart as she thinks she is. She's so convinced that everything is under her control that she won't even listen when the man she loves, the one who fixed her failing firm, the guy who saved her when no one else could. And given my thoughts on Helena in general right now, I'm pretty sure this is going to come back to bite her later on.

But, I've gotta admit, she knows Trevor so much better now than she did pre-island. She's learned that the stick does nothing to him, but the carrot is his big weakness. When she decided to finally say fuck it and just take him, she didn't force him or threaten him; she just took her clothes off and he was done! She could do whatever she wanted with him, and he would be thrilled for the privilege of having it done to him. This has been the case for a little while now, but this may be the most blatant example of it to date.

And Donnica revealing (to us, not Trevor) that this was the whole reason he's in the office, to be there for her whenever she wanted, to serve her and assume his "true place" as her sex slave was a very her thing to plan. I know, she also truly believed that he could help once he showed that he had the knowhow to fix the firm, but yeah, her just not wanting to wait for that release anymore makes a lot of sense, given her character.

But what I loved most about this third segment was how Trevor defying Donnica was such a turn on for both Donnica and Annabel. Annabel desperately wanted Trevor to stop fighting their master (this made me feel like she put Trevor on the same level as her, which makes sense but is still a big thing given his size), but after a while she found their fight to be "intoxicating." She wants Trevor to understand and obey like she does, but that fight in him still does it for her.

And even though Donnica has been trying to stamp out that resistance within him, it really got her going here, too! His defiance went from an agitation to an aphrodisiac on a fucking dime! Like I've said several times at this point (but is still no less true), Donnica both hates and loves this part of Trevor!

The smut itself was fucking incredible, too! I feel like you went into a little more detail than you usually do with things on the "front end," and that effort was definitely noticeable and appreciated! Excellent work here!

Annabel spying on them was both hilarious and a little heartbreaking. I felt for her, being on the outside looking in, being so close to everything she wants but not knowing how to actually reach out and grab it. It was kind of sad, but also kind of hot (you know, if you're into the whole voyeur thing).

And her telling that polite assistant to "GO AWAY!" made me laugh so hard! I loved that! I get her frustration, though. But I also think that was a big thing for her, too. A few chapters ago, Annabel was struggling to get respect in the office, sucking hard at dealing with her fellow giants. Now, instead of being a doormat for them, she's taking charge and not afraid of them anymore. Unlike in the previous segment, she wasn't even protecting Trevor this time. She was just annoyed and Donnica didn't want to be disturbed, so this lady could just fuck off!

This was a great chapter! As always, I feel like there was so much here! I'm actually glad you decided to break the chapter up, because I think it would have been a bit of an overload to have had much more here!

Well Donnica is something. I will give her that. I have to admit. I lost respect here for her. I didn't think she was a cheater. I haven't fully decided if that constituted adulatory yet or not. But the simple fact that I am even considering if that was cheating on her part. Well that says all I think needs to be said. Donnica is an uber bitch. She is also way to arrogant. She really needs to be brought down some how. I assume by Trevor, cause Amber is a not in the poistion to fight her own mother, b not strong enough, and c not exactly having the moral high ground to fight her. 

So this chapter revealed a side of Annebel that while I am not suprised is there, I wasnt expecting it. She is a natural tiny at heart. If she has the right master/owner. I think I get it now, her desire for tinys to obey. Cause she would be the perfect tiny. She wants all tinys to be as obedient as she is or rather would be. I doubt any of this is concious. Its purely subconscious. She wants a strong dominating master. She might not want to be an actual tiny, but she is one tiny regardless. 

Trevor, wew that took guts. To be willing to walk into the lions den, and even further into its open paw while its licking its chops. Then to basically tell said lion to stop trying to being a loner, and get with the program (sorry lost the analogy)Wow, that was either very brave or very stupid, or maybe very smart. A tiny being so strong does seem to through these giant ladies for a loop. They dont seem to know how to react. 

Also Donnica killing those two tinies. I am not suprised, but man it just goes to show the massive dissonance she has went it comes to Trevor. LIke I honestly think if she was ever forced to really confront herself, she would lose her ever freaking mind. It is such a contradiction, that there is no way to justify the thinking that makes Trevor special, and yet be ok to kill other tinies, just becasue they needed a break. Now I could bring up how that is completely accurate statement to how a lot of bosses treat there employs in the real world. But that is a topic that is both beyond me to have, and probably not appropriate for this site.

While I LIked this chapter, I am interested in what happened to cause this chapter to become two. I am not complaning, I will always want more chapters. But I am really curious to see what the next chapter brings on thursday.
