Hank took Sybil's chin in one hand and the ball gag from Keely in the other. "Open," he told her. When Sybil was slow to react, his eyes narrowed as he pressed his fingers into her jaw. "Do not make me repeat myself, Sybil," he warned. Seeing the steel in his eyes, she obeyed, albeit reluctantly. "Better," he said, placing the gag in her mouth and snapping it closed behind her head.
He looked at Willow and snapped his fingers. She held out the hood for him, unzipped and ready to be placed over Sybil's head. Sybil's eyes got very large and she shook her head, emitting a series of muffled grunts. Willow looked at the struggling woman before her master. She stepped behind Sybil and placed her hands over the woman's cheeks, pressing the gag's bindings into her skin as she held her head still. She bent down and put her lips to Sybil's ear.
"It will be easier for you if you submit and accept that you are a part of our family," she said quietly. Sybil's eyes widened, and then narrowed mutinously at her. Willow darted a glance at Master's face; he had not missed the look Sybil had given her. She sighed sadly, and moved back as Master slid the hood over Sybil's head.
"You will learn, Sybil," he said as he zipped it shut. Sybil began to struggle in earnest then, trying to free herself from the hood. "Willow," he said to her.
"Yes, my Master?"
"I will need your help." His voice sounded cold and flat, sending a chill down Willow's spine.
"Yes, Master," she said, as Hank took a hold of Sybil and raised her legs, his fingers digging into Sybil's flesh as he fought against her violent struggles. He pressed close against her, using his weight to pin her bodily against the frame of the cross and forced her legs apart.
Willow took Sybil’s left ankle and swiftly buckled it into the waiting cuff, then moved around to the other side. Hank moved her right leg into place and Willow buckled the cuff around the delicate ankle, then stepped back.
"Very good, Pet," he said, letting go of Sybil's now-restrained body. "Now let's see if we can teach this one some manners."
