Thank you all for your kind words! I am still developing parts of the story so I'll try to keep some of your suggestions in mind as I continue to write.
Part 4
Nate stared up at his step mother, now called "mommy", through the bars of his crib. It was no ordinary crib, clearly made for the body of an adult, even if Nate's body could barely be described as "adult like". Sat there dressed as he was in a diaper and sitting in a crib, it was having the exact psychological effect on him that his mommy had hoped, making him feel incredibly small and dependent. His mommy sat in a rocking chair opposite his crib and grabbed a notebook off the table. She opened it up and began to speak.
"Well babykins, now that I've got you exactly where I want you, I'm going to set some ground rules for your new future", Andrea said as she licked her fingers and began turning the pages of the notebook. "I think you'll recognize a lot of these, I had a lot of help piecing them together from your old journal. I must say, you have a very creative imagination. Some of these I never even would have thought of if it wasn't for your help." With that she pulled out a pair of reading glasses and fixed them onto her head. It was time to begin.
"Alright baby, these are going to be the rules around here for the forceable future. Failure to comply with them will lead to strict punishment as I see fit", Andrea began as her eyes darted across the page. "Rule Number 1: Anything mommy says goes. You are not to disobey mommy at any time, nor will you be making any decisions for yourself from now on. I will decide everything for you, from what clothes you wear down to when you receive your diaper changes. Which brings me to- Rule Number 2: Diapers. You will use your diapers for all of their intended purposes, just like a real baby. Yes, that means pee pee and poo poo. When you need changing you may get my attention, but only I can decide whether you will be changed or not. If you try to change yourself or use the big boy toilet you will be severely punished."
This rule sent a shiver down Nate's spine. He had often fantasized about using diapers, but to be forced to use them, let alone humiliatingly in front of a woman such as his step mother, gave Nate a very bad feeling about what was to come. Andrea continued. "Rule Number 3: Your new status as a little girl. Since you so clearly can't handle being a man like your father was, I have little choice but to treat you like the prissy little girl that you obviously want to be. That means you will no longer be dressing yourself: I will be providing all of your outfits for you, and it also means you will need a new name. In this matter I have chosen the name Lilly for you, because a pretty and delicate flower such as yourself deserves a name that is equally as pretty and delicate. Do you object to this name Lilly?"
Nate (who from now on shall be called Lilly) thought long and hard for a moment before deciding he should agree rather than face the wrath of his step mother. "Yes mommy, it's a very...pretty name. Thank you for picking it out for me.", he said with an obviously unenthused tone. It was a good enough response for now, Andrea thought. Once the need to be harsh was over he would eventually settle into his new rule.
Andrea continued to look down at the notebook as she read off the rest of the rules. "Rule Number 4: You will talk and act like a baby at all times. That includes lisping, crawling, playing with baby toys, and using the most childish words you can think of. I'd better not hear any words with more than three syllables come out of your mouth, got it? Rule Number 5: Anyone I leave in charge of you will have full authority to tell you what to do and punish you as they wish. Finally Rule Number 6: You are to stay in any place that I leave you, such as your crib, high chair, or especially your play pen. Do you accept these rules baby? This is the last time I will ask. If you decline you are free to pack your bags and go live on the streets. If you accept I will keep you here as my adorable little baby girl who I will nourish with love and affection, but I will expect you to completely act the part. What do you say?"
Lilly's head was racing as the full weight of what was happening began to sink in. He wanted to get up and run, but he knew she was right. Any attempt to escape his fate would leave him vulnerable and homeless, and furthermore, he had already let her get him in this position in the first place. Tears filled his eyes as he forced himself to do the unthinkable and agree to his new mommy's terms. "Yes mommy, I accept your offer. I'll be your baby girl from now on if you promise not to kick me out.", Nate cried out as tears began to fall down his cheeks.
Usually Andrea would find this display pathetic. However, dressed as he was in this incredibly vulnerable position, she felt nothing towards him in this moment but loving maternal warmth. She smiled as she walked over to the crib and slid the bars down, wrapping her arms around him and giving him a soft, motherly hug. "Thank you baby. I know I've been harsh to you in the past. Just remember that I'm not doing this to punish you. Not completely anyway. I really do want this to be a new chapter in our relationship, and I promise that if you listen to me and do what I say I'll be the best mommy you've ever had."
