She was still naked, the blanket falling away from her breasts as she sat up and rubbed her eyes. At once she heard faint noises downstairs of muffled conversation and the rattle of silverware. Apparently Victor had decided to head off any more attempts by her to sneak out of the house. This was one time it did not matter to her, for she had largely what she needed right in her house. She simply needed one critical piece of information, and she hoped that some point in the day the opportunity would present itself for her to obtain it. Gina rose from the bed and immediately headed for the shower, her thighs and crotch still musky from the night before. She ran the shower as hot as she could stand it, feeling it invigorate her. She felt a mixture of excitement and fear over what she was planning to do. It was ridiculously simple, yet it would land her in a lot of trouble if Victor discovered her. But all she needed was one thing. All she needed was Victor's last name. Gina stepped out of the shower, feeling fairly confident. It was the first time she felt like she might be in control again. She even took the time to dry her hair more slowly with a lower setting on the dryer and brush it out nicely. She smiled slightly at herself in the mirror before turning and opening the door back to her bedroom. The moment she stepped across the threshold, she gasped loudly and her heart leapt into her throat. "Good morning, Gina," Victor said with a pleased smile. Gina took a moment to recover from the shock of seeing him sitting at the edge of her bed before she felt she could breathe normally again, and another moment to realize that she was standing before him completely naked. Her feet shuffled back, as if wanting to take her back into the bathroom and hide her nudity from him. Instead, she simply stood there, heart beating fast, her cheeks coloring. "And do I get no pleasant greeting in return?" Victor asked. Gina swallowed. "G-good morning, s-sir," she stammered. "I'm sorry, I-I didn't expect you there ... I ..." She trailed off. Her eyes had slid from Victor to the spot next to him on the bed, where her costume now lay neatly folded, the shoes laid next to them. Victor stood up and approached her. Gina's eyes widened and she swallowed nervously but held her ground. His eyes darted over her body, lingering around her crotch, then again at her breasts. Finally he lifted his gaze to her frightened eyes. "You know, I only just realized, Gina, that this is the first time I'm seeing you nude." Gina just looked back at him, his eyes lustful yet still cold. It sent a shiver up her spine. "I must say, Gina, I do indeed like what I see," Victor continued in a deeper voice. "Quite a striking young woman you are. Quite ripe. Quite ready." "Quite r-ready for what, sir?" Gina asked, a trace of huskiness to her voice. Victor smiled broadly. "Many things, Gina," he said softly. "A touch. A caress. A growing insistence. A cup of a hand around a soft breast. A flick of a finger across aroused flesh. A stroke in an intimate place. A surrender. A slow entry. A press of a body against another. A rising ecstasy." Gina bit her lip to suppress a moan, a flash of heat between her thighs, her body trembling. Victor paused, then backed away slowly. "Yes, Gina, a great many things," he said in a more natural voice. His gaze dropped to the bed and the costume. "Come down for breakfast when you are dressed. Oh, and wear your costume. You looked so wonderful in it last night, I would very much like to see it again." Gina did not move from where she stood until he had left the room. She let go with a heavy sigh. With just a few words he had managed to arouse her yet again and left her feeling unsatisfied. Gina descended the stairs slowly, trying to minimize the effects of the pants on her mound. Nevertheless, by the time she had reached the dining room table, her pussy was again wet and aching with her arousal, and her nipples tingled with just-denied pleasure. She had no idea how she was going to stand this at the dance. Her mother cast a forlorn and pleading look at her daughter as she served the meal, a look that begged Gina not to hate her for what was happening. Gina tried to convey with just her eyes that she did not blame Roberta for anything. Whatever was happening, it was Victor's fault, not her mother's. Gina spread her legs apart slightly under the table, just enough to relieve most of the pressure on her slot, and sat absolutely still. This managed to stop the touch against her cunt, but even just the act of breathing would let the very tips of her nipples be stroked by the inside material of the costume, keeping her in a heightened state of arousal. Silence reigned at the table as Roberta brought the last of the breakfast meal to the table, and promptly and carefully served up Victor's plate for him, putting only the precise amount that she knew he wanted. "Better, Roberta," Victor said mildly. "You are learning again." Roberta managed a small smile before sitting down. She actually looked pleased at his praise. Gina studiously remained quiet during the meal, intending to keep her eyes lowered and eat her breakfast without a word of complaint or a single look that could be considered defiance or disobedience. Yet not long into the meal, Victor himself broke the silence. "Once the meal is finished, Roberta," he said. "I will need you to straighten up the living room and the den. And you will need to be quick about it." Gina risked raising her eyes. Her mother looked a little nonplussed at this announcement, but recovered quickly and said, "Of course, sir." "I am serious, Roberta. There will be no tolerance of mistakes today on your part." Gina felt her stomach clench and lowered her fork. Her mother appeared to take a deep breath, as if needing to calm herself. "O-of course, sir," she repeated. "I will do my best." "Do better than your best." "Yes, sir." "After all," Victor said with a slow smile. "I do not wish you to make a bad impression on my guests." Gina blanched at the speed at which the color drained from her mother's face. "Y-your ... your guests, sir?" she asked in a shaky voice. "Yes, Roberta. I am having some friends over this morning," Victor explained, placing his elbows on the table and folding his hands. "We have important matters to discuss. And ... preparations to be made." Roberta glanced from Victor to her daughter and back, a quietly frantic look in her eyes. Gina felt a renewed icy chill of fear wrap around her. When her mother spoke again, Gina had never heard the woman sound so frightened in her life. "Victor, please," she said in a low voice. "P-please ... you can't ... not now, not after this many ..." "Roberta," Victor said in a voice as hard as granite. Roberta quieted, but swallowed hard, and gave him a pleading look. "There is nothing to discuss," Victor said. "And if there were, I would not be discussing it with /you/." Gina's mother opened her mouth again, but closed it at a single look of cold steel from Victor's eyes. Gina's own rising fear now was enough to make her forget about her costume and it's stimulating effects on her. It was not just her mother. She could feel an almost palpable tension in the air, like thick miasma. Yet as terrible as this felt, it was also her opportunity. If Victor was sufficient distracted entertaining his guests, perhaps it would give her time to ... "Gina." Gina flinched, startled out of her thoughts. Victor's lips curled into a smirk devoid of humor. "A bit skittish today, aren't we?" "S-sorry, sir," Gina said sheepishly. "Perhaps contemplating some of the things I said to you earlier, hmm?" Gina swallowed and did not reply, keeping absolutely still. "Two things, Gina," Victor said, his voice dropping into a much more serious tone of voice. "The first is, I need you to stay out of the way today while my guests are here. As much as I would like to show you off to them, our discussion will not be for children's ears. Do I make myself clear on this?" "Yes, sir, very clear," Gina replied. Not only was it clear, it was perfect. "Now, you may do this in one of two ways. You may leave, and take one of your ... walks ..." A taint of suspicion hung precariously over that one word, making a knot of tension tighten in her stomach. "Or you may stay in your room with the door closed." Gina nodded. "Yes, sir." "And the second thing, Gina," Victor said, and now the smile returned to his face. "Is your costume." Gina had a feeling she knew what he was going to say. "The more I see you in it, the more I like it. And I prefer to keep things as they are when I like them. So you'll stay dressed in that for the rest of today." Yes, that was exactly what Gina was expecting. "Of course, sir," she said resignedly. "Make sure you note this, Gina," Victor said in a lower voice. "Make sure you note this well. I do not wish you to remove your costume." A flash of heat. A tingling sensation. A ripple across her skin. Gina blinked, but it was gone as soon as she felt it. From across the table, Roberta wrung her hands. "Gina?" Victor said, one corner of his mouth tugging upwards. "Uh ... yes, sir," she said cautiously. "Repeat it back to me." Gina hesitated. "I'm not to remove my costume." "No. That is not what I said. I said: I do not wish you to remove your costume." "You ... you do not wish me to remove my costume." It happened a second time. She felt a sense of unease come over her. "Very good, Gina," Victor said. "Now, which will it be? A walk? Or quiet contemplation in your room?" "I'll stay in my room, sir," Gina said evenly. "Be sure that you do, Gina. Be sure that you do." Gina lay absolutely still on her bed, sprawled out with her legs spread apart, hoping for the slow lustful burn in her cunt to abate before she had to make her move. She wondered how Stephanie was doing. She wondered what he was going to do to her next, for it seemed he followed suit with Gina soon after. She almost wished she could go out, if just to find out what might be in store for her. But would Victor even see Stephanie today? Surely if he were, he would have to leave the house, even if Stephanie did live just down Shady Lane. If that were the case, perhaps she should wait until then, when it was absolutely safe, to ... She shook her head. No, if he was going to go out, he'd likely take the very thing with him that she needed. As the time passed, her anxiety rose and heart beat faster. She went over the plan in her head over and over. She already had the small bit of paper and pen clutched in one increasingly sweaty hand that she would use to write down his full name when she found it. It was a very simple plan: sneak into his room, open his wallet, find his last name on an ID or credit card, write it down, and then back to her room. Yet for all it's simplicity, it was fraught with difficulty. She had to reach his room without being seen from the living room. She had to do this on a hardwood floor wearing high-heels. She had to hope that they stayed downstairs and did not need to come up here for anything. All it took to completely spoil her plans was two people whose morning coffee ran through at the same time and one was sent to use the upstairs bathroom. Any of her remaining doubts became academic when the doorbell downstairs rang. Gina did not hesitate. She immediately climbed out of bed, applying as much of her will as possible to ignore what her pants were continuing to do to her pussy. She knew exactly what Victor was doing to her. He believed this would incapacitate her. She had to prove that wrong. She crept over to the door and placed her ear against the space between the door and the frame and listened intently. The front door of the house was just far enough back that anyone standing there would see the very top of her door over the second floor landing. She had to wait until everyone had moved from there further into the living room. Gina waited, straining to hear over her thundering heart. Finally the sounds of conversation appeared to move, growing more muffled as the second floor landing passed between them and her ear. She waited another minute and then dropped to her knees. She reached up and opened the door very slowly. She paused, waiting for the sound of Victor's voice that would tell her that it was all for naught. Instead, all she heard was murmured conversation that continued to move even further into the house. She gushed with relief. They were not even staying in the living room but heading into the dining room instead. This was her break. Gina got down on all fours, making sure to pick up her feet and keep them in the air. As soon as she had taken but a few "steps", she realized this would be harder than she thought. The way her hips wriggled as she moved, as close as her thighs were as they scissored back and forth, her pussy was being deeply stroked with each movement, far more than if she had been walking. Gina could not stop, she had to keep going. Halfway down the hall, and she was already quivering with the intolerable teasing of her cunt, driving her up to the edge of orgasm and never pushing her over. She even paused and clenched her thighs at one point, as if hoping to force her over and give her some relief, but it just made things worse. She bit her lip hard to stop herself from whimpering her distress. Gina panted despite her attempts not to. She moved more quickly, having to chance making a noise. Finally she reached the door to Victor's room. She raised herself up and lunged at the doorknob, let herself in, and then collapsed to the carpet. Gina swallowed and lay there for a few moments, trying to let the crest of her stimulation fall back to where she could think again. Slowly she rose to her knees, and then shakily to her feet. At least now she was in a carpeted room and could walk without making too much noise. Gina staggered over to the dresser and groped for the wallet that sat right where she had seen it the other day. She opened it, and it was fat with plastic cards. With a growing sense of accomplishment, she yanked out the first one she saw, a Visa card, and triumphantly read the name to herself on the card. Victor Grenana. Gina smiled weakly as she jotted the name down. But then when she went to return the card, she found that it had pulled another card halfway out, this one a MasterCard, and her smile faded as she read the name on it. Victor Merenko. With a sinking feeling, she plucked out other cards. The first had the Merenko name again. The next had a new one: Victor Hollerton. The next two were Grenana again, but then the third was a new one entirely: Victor Jeston. She went through another section of his wallet, this one containing ID cards from perhaps two dozen different countries, and about four different last names. "God /damn/," she cried softly. She had no choice. She had to write them all down. By the time she was done, she had twelve different names. She looked at the list and wondered which one of these names he was using now. A flash of insight made her open the top drawer of the dresser. She shuddered when her eyes fell on the wooden paddle, and as she rifled though his things, she found the leather cuffs and other related bondage items. It was with a sigh of relief that she came across what she was looking for: his passport. She opened it, and inside found the name Victor Teylix. She put a tick mark next to that name on the list. Quickly she put the passport back and placed the wallet where she had seen it. She crossed back over to the door and dropped down to the floor again, stifling a gasp as her pants renewed the relentless pressure on her slot. Yet now it was almost tolerable to her. Gripping the prize in her hand, she started crawling out the door, pausing to reach up and gently close the door. But just as she was about to start back towards her room, her breath caught as she heard Victor's voice ring out, "Now look what we have here." Gina's heart dropped into her stomach as she looked up, expecting to see Victor standing over her along with all his cohorts, her cheeks already flaring scarlet. Yet when her eyes had risen, they beheld only an empty hallway. "What we have here, my brethren, is a fine opportunity," Victor continued, and now she realized that the voice was coming from downstairs in the living room. "An opportunity to establish a chapter right here in Haven." "Do you really think we can, Victor?" asked a lilting, distinguished female voice. "Such a small town this is ..." "That is the beauty of it, my dear. Who will notice it in a sleepy little town like this? And I have found the energies here to be positively astounding. We would be fools not to tap that." Gina started to move very slowly and cautiously, knowing that her only goal should be getting back to the safety of her room, but she could not help but keep one ear on their conversation. "Not to be devil's advocate, old chap," said a man with a distinct English accent. "But didn't you try this before? I seem to recall it got a bit buggered up." "A mistake on my part, I will admit," came Victor's voice. "Attribute it to the foolishness of youth and to inexperience." "His record is very clear, Vance," said the distinguished woman. "Many successes since that time. I have the utmost faith in him." "And would this be one of those successes you speak of?" asked another male in an amused voice. By this time, Gina had stopped moving, riveted on what they were saying. She gazed at the railing, panting softly from both her fear and forced sexual arousal. "An early work, you understand," Victor said. "And she has been out of my direct tutelage for some time." "How much has she forgotten?" There was a lascivious edge to that voice that made Gina's skin crawl. "She has forgotten nothing in what really matters." "Might I have proof of that?" "Surely, you may," Victor said with a chuckle. "Be my guest. She is yours." There was a pause. Then a soft slide of clothing against skin. A light clinking of metal. And then an order: "Please me with your mouth only. Use nothing else. A brisk pace, but not too fast. And deep. If you don't please me, you'll be a bad little girl." "Yes, master." Gina realized she not have been surprised to hear her mother's voice at that point, but the impact was no less profound. She shuddered and trembled. She had to stop listening or it was just going to make her want to do something foolish to stop them. "You should re-indoctrinate her, you know," said another. "Only if she crosses me a third time, Sam," Victor said. "That is the rule." The response was an amused snicker. "Surely, if we're going to be conducting a ceremony anyway, wouldn't ..." "Only if she crosses me a third time," Victor repeated in a darker tone of voice. "We do not break that rule." "Sorry. I just know we're going to a lot of trouble for this." "Which is all the more reason not to act foolishly," Victor said. "Brethren, this Halloween night is going to be a rebirth for us. We have never had such a strong candidate in so many years. She is perfect. I cannot emphasize this enough." Suddenly there was the sound like a leash being yanked and a muffled yelp. "I /said/, not too fast." Gina whimpered softly at what her mother was going through as she crawled closer to her door. She had to find a way to get her out of this. And now it sounded like they had another one they were after. It had to be Stephanie. With the girl's parents out of town, she was vulnerable. They would never know that her daughter was being taken. She was the perfect target. And then another high, clear voice rang out : "I can tell you for a fact that Victor is right in this. I have seen her for myself. She is all but ours already." Gina covered her mouth to stifle a shocked cry. That was Terri Hollis' voice! Gina was beside herself. She looked towards the railing. It couldn't have been her! It just couldn't! She had to know. She knew she was risking it all, but she had to know. "And here is another example of why Haven is ideal for us," Victor said in a silky voice. "How often do we get one of our brethren into such a position where she can observe so many boys and girls approaching their sixteenth birthdays? So many possible future candidates, right at her fingertips?" "What rite will you be performing on her, Victor?" asked Sam again, anticipation in his voice at the reply. "The very one that I am sure you are so eager to see, Sam," Victor replied. "The Rite of Denial." Gina crept forward, forcing herself to breathe through her nose as she approached the railing. As she grew closer, she was jolted by her teacher's voice again. "And how far are you going to take it?" "As far as needed." "Isn't that what caused the little cock-up with ..." "That was because she was inappropriate as a candidate," Victor said sternly. "Again, it was my mistake. I have never made that mistake again." Gina swallowed as she reached the railing, scrunched herself down as low to the floor as she could, and slid forward until her eyes beheld the scene in the living room, and all she could do was stare in astonishment, all sense of reason flying out her mind. In the center of the sofa sat Victor, and some twelve other men and women were arranged in a rough semicircle around him, save for a few that had privileged spots next to him on the sofa. Most were seated, either on chairs or on the floor. All of them had changed out of their normal clothes into robes of flowing midnight black. It was very clear from the way some of them sat, with their robes only loosely sashed if at all, that they wore nothing else under these robes. And there roughly in the center of the room was Gina's mother. She was kneeling on the floor, her ankles encircled with thick leather shackles connected with a short chain. Her wrists were similarly restrained behind her. A thin chain was wrapped around each breast, joined by a third chain that led to the hand of a man standing in front of her. His robe was parted, Roberta's mouth sliding back and forth steadily on his cock. Each time she bobbed forward, she took him deep inside her mouth, her lips almost reaching the very base of his cock, before sliding back again. And then Gina's gaze was drawn to the lanky honey-haired woman sitting at one end of the sofa, her robe open and her thighs parted, brazenly exposing her completely bare pussy. It was very much indeed Terri Hollis, Gina's English lit teacher. "And what of this one?" drawled a black man off to the side, casually gesturing towards Gina's mother. "How close is she to her own Rite of Denial?" "She has crossed me twice, now." Roberta gave a very short whimper of protest. She clamped down on it very quickly, but not before earning another yank on her breast chains. "Yes, Roberta, twice," Victor said stonily. "I simply have not punished you for the second transgression yet. Or did you think I would not know of your clandestine visit to your daughter after I had retired?" Gina looked horrified. Her mother was going to be punished again, and she felt it was her fault somehow. And if she was understanding them correctly, one more time would earn her this Rite of Denial. What was it? It must be bad if they're using it as a punishment, or as coercion to make someone join them. If any of this was a concern to Roberta, she did not show it. She was concentrating too much on the penis in her mouth, as its owner began to make low, urgent sounds. She was obviously doing her best to be a "good little girl". Gina shivered. "Where will the ceremony be held, Victor?" asked the black man. "There is an abandoned church, just across the road from an old cemetery on Old Fairview Drive," Victor explained. "It is almost right on one of the energy lines that run through this town." "And why are you so confident about this new candidate? What is it about her that is so perfect?" Terri laughed, her eyes flicking towards Gina's mother. "Why, simply because she ..." Victor raised a hand, and Terri fell silent. "There are several reasons," Victor said. "For one, if things work out as I expect they will, she will no longer be virginal when she is ready for us." "Is that what you believe went wrong the last time?" "It was a factor, yes. And as for the other reason ..." He paused, and then his lips curled into a sly grin. "Let's keep that our little secret for now. Consider it ... a Halloween surprise." A loud groan was uttered by the man standing before Roberta, his head tilting back. Before him, Roberta had cradled his penis on the flat of her tongue, whipping it back and forth under his cock, alternating between this and tilting her head to one side to stroke at the length of his shaft with her tongue, sliding quickly back and forth a few times before returning to the head. It was quite obvious to Gina's growing eyes that her mother was very accomplished at this, that this was certainly not her first time. The man groaned once more, a shudder passing through him, becoming a low pant as his penis started to throb. Roberta let the first few streams of his cum splash over her lips and cheeks before taking him back inside and bobbing her head back and forth quickly, filling her mouth with more of his hot seed. When he was finally spent, Roberta took her time, drawing back slowly, licking him clean before tilting her head back and swallowing. Roberta looked up, and in a submissive voice that made Gina cringe, she said, "Was I a good little girl, master?" The man paused a moment and then smiled slightly. "Victor was right. You have not lost what really matters." Roberta looked pleased, yet there was still a pain behind her eyes that Gina could see even from up on the landing. "Bring her to me, if you would," Terri said. The man gave the chain a snap again and led her around like a dog towards Terri. She took the chain from him and pulled on it slowly until Roberta had crawled so close to the sofa that her breasts about touched it. Slowly,Terri moved herself on the sofa so that her legs were spread apart on either side of Gina's mother. A wicked smile came to her face. "Let's see if you do pussy as well as you do cock," Terri said huskily. /Oh my God!/ Gina cried in her mind. Without hesitation, Roberta leaned forward, tilting her head back slightly. Her eyes slid closed, her tongue sliding from her mouth and curling up to lightly tease Terri's already slick and excited clitoris. Terri smiled and placed her free hand on Roberta's head, gently ruffling the hair as if showing affection for a pet. She slid her hips forward eagerly and pressed Roberta's face into her now wet cunt, giving a small sigh of pleasure as Roberta's tongue went deeper, lips closing around the swollen clitoris, sucking gently and eagerly. Gina hurried backed up from the railing, very nearly hitting the wall behind her with one of her high heels. She barely even noticed now what her costume was doing to her as she quickly made it the rest of the way to her room and mercifully closed the door behind her, silencing their conversion, and her teacher's moans of pleasure. Gina had to pause to catch her breath. She staggered to her feet, her mind reeling at everything she had just seen and heard. She could scarcely believe it. The Cult of Se'xel'ta was real. Or Victor was trying to make it real. She wasn't sure which, but she had to find out. Gina looked down at the names on the piece of note paper. Twelve names that might give her a clue, some insight into what was going on and what she could do about it. She remembered when she was a kid, she loved to read. Her favorite books to read, of all things for a girl, were detective novels. Much of what she read were set in the 1950s or 1960s. She remembered marveling at how these gumshoes would pound the pavement in their quest for any scrap of personal information on a suspect. Their quests would sometimes last days or even weeks before they could acquire what they needed to build their case. As much as she enjoyed those stories and admired those characters, she was very much happy to be living in modern times. Gina sat down, turned on her computer, started her browser, and clicked on her bookmark to Google. Gina sat with her head propped up by her arm, looking quite exasperated. She had lost track of time, or the number of search results screens she had stared at until her eyes became bleary. So long had she been at this, she had almost grown used to the constant pressure against her cunt, even though just her slow occasional movements in the chair kept her arousal permanently up, until her pussy now ached badly from the constant, furtive stimulation it received. She could even smell the steamy wetness, having saturated the inside of her pants so much that it leaked out the sides, the odor wafting to her nose. It was not that Gina had found very little. Quite the opposite. It was the sheer wealth of information that she was forced to slog through that was the problem. Every name generated hits. Every last one. According to what she had found, if every one of those names was actually one under which he traveled, this man had been all over the globe and held many occupations. She found him in France as a an exporter of exotic and rare lingerie; in England, he spent time as a writer of erotic plays; he turned up in various countries in South America working as an assistant archaeologist, specializing in the sex lives of ancient Mesoamerican cultures; his travels took him to India, where he did unspecified research on the origins of the Kama Sutra; back to Europe again as an assistant biochemist in Germany, studying the physiology of human sexual arousal. The list went on and on. There was only one common link in all of them, and that was that each one had something to do with sex. He had researched, written, studied, bought, sold, analyzed, and investigated anything and everything to do with the sexual act. While this made sense to her, it did nothing to give her anything she could use to figure out what was happening right in her home town. In a final act of desperation, she returned to the query screen and put in each name again, one after the other, this time including the name of her town. At first, this turned out to be a dead end as well, as it picked up articles that simply had the word "haven" in it, until, while she was looking over the links for Victor Teylix, she came across a link pointing to a digitized archive of a local newspaper, the Haven Town Gazette. Gina clicked on the link. A newspaper article appeared on the screen before her: Mystery Death Stuns Haven Community November 5, 1985 On the morning after Halloween, local police received one last nasty trick-or-treat when they were directed to the dead, naked body of a teenage girl of 16 years of age. She was discovered by several joggers in the grasses along the side of Old Fairview Drive, on unincorporated land at the edge of the town. Her death became even more of a mystery when an initial examination by pathologists could not ascertain the cause of death. The body is unmarked, and there is no evidence of foul play. Despite her nudity when she was discovered, further tests found no evidence of sexual assault. A perplexed police forensics expert was quoted as saying "This is a perfectly healthy and hearty girl, except for the fact that she's dead." The name of the girl is being withheld until her parents are contacted, as they are, tragically, out of town dealing with another death in the family. An initial examination of the girl's medical history revealed no clues to her death. The police currently have no leads. On November 2, they briefly questioned a Victor Teylix, who witnesses had placed at the vicinity the night of October 31, shortly before midnight. Teylix, a foreign national in the United States on holiday, was questioned but released. He is not a suspect in the case. The police are asking anyone in the community with any information to please call the precinct house at 555-6724. Gina felt her blood run cold. Victor had done this before. He had tried to "recruit" someone for his cult, right here in Haven, 20 years ago, and (I seem to recall it got a bit buggered up ...) a girl died. The case was so similar to what was happening to Stephanie that it was chilling. But there was still a huge, unanswered question. How did the girl die? Did this "Rite of Denial" have something to do with it? Denial of what? Gina sighed and ran a hand over her hair. "More questions than when I started," she muttered. As she sat there contemplating what to do, trying to keep her mind focused her task and off her pussy, she was surprised when she heard a chime that indicated she had new mail. She almost had not recognized the sound at first, as she rarely got mail while she was sitting at the computer. She had so few correspondents and posted on so few places on the internet that she was spared even the bulk of the spam. She clicked on her mail reader and discovered to her surprise that the email was from the online erotica site. Her heart gave a little lurch as she saw that it was telling her that another part of the /Cult of Se'xel'ta/ series had been posted. Gina groaned. The last thing she needed was to read another of those now, with the way she was being tortured by this infernal costume. Her mouse hovered over the link for a few moments, and she shook her head. "You want your question answered, don't you, Gina?" Gina was so startled she let out a shriek. She had not even heard her door open or Victor step into the room, yet there he was right behind her chair. She bolted up, but had barely gotten to her feet when two hands landed heavily on her shoulders and shoved her back down hard into the chair. Gina sat in her chair, gasping, shaking with terror. Victor's hands lay on her shoulders, squeezing them firmly but not harshly. Her chest heaved, her nipples tingling unbearably. Victor knelt down behind her and when he spoke again, it was directly into her ear, making her shudder with fright. "I said, you want your question answered, don't you, Gina?" he asked, his voice soft, yet as scary as it would have been had he screamed at her. He nodded to the screen. "Go on, Gina. Click the link. The answer awaits you." Gina lifted her hand. It shook badly. "I-I don't ... d-don't want ..." "Yes, you do," Victor said firmly. "Because you can't turn away, can you? Ever since you started reading them. They pulled you in immediately, didn't they?" Gina could not get her throat to work, as much as she was quaking in her chair. "Click the link," he said, his voice sultry and hypnotic. Gina swallowed hard. She reached over and brought the quivering mouse pointed to the link. After a few seconds, a page of prose appeared in her browser window, and she felt fear clutch at her as she read the title at the top of the page: /The Rite of Denial./ Victor stood up. His hands loosened and slid down her arms. Gina shivered under his touch. "Read it," Victor said, his fingers lightly caressing her upper arms. Gina took a deep, rattling breath, and began to read. As with all of these works, despite how frightened she was, she was drawn into the flow of the story, her senses captivated by the raw emotion, her mind reeling at the darkness at the same time her body reveled in the lust. "The Rite of Denial, Gina," Victor said breathlessly. His fingers squeezed her arms. She sensed the growing excitement in him. "Try to imagine yourself in their place." Gina bit her lip and whimpered. Heat burned brightly in her loins. "Imagine being aroused, so intensely, unbearably, /intolerably/ aroused ... so aroused that you would go absolutely mad if you did not get relief." His hands slid down to her sides, touching the flesh above her waist. Gina started to pant. "And now, Gina," Victor said, his voice deeply husky, his fingers reaching down and grasping the top of her pants right above her delta. "Now imagine after all that, when you think you cannot possible grow more sexually excited, you cannot ache any further, your desire cannot burn any more brightly ... imagine after that that somehow, some way, you grow ever more aroused." He tugged at her pants, driving it even further against her slot, grinding it wetly against her already tormented clitoris. Gina uttered a piteous cry, her body shaking. "And finally, Gina," he said, his voice dropping to a tone that was so lustful as to be diabolic, "Finally ... imagine lying there ... begging ... pleading ... /screaming/ ... to be touched, to be stroked, to be fucked ... and being ... /denied/." Gina gripped the hand rests so hard that her nails bit into the leather. She shrunk into her chair, but he kept tugging at her pants, and her squirming only made it stimulate her all the more. His other hand reached up and snapped at one of the straps holding her top in place, and set off her nipples. She writhed in the chair in desperation, her pussy hanging at the edge of climax, boiling with her lust, straining, the flesh swollen and wet, the musky aroma thick in her nostrils. She panted so heavily that she felt dizzy. Victor let go of her, but her arousal was so elevated that it hardly mattered. "And now, one more thing, Gina," Victor said. "One more thing to make you understand. Try to remove your outfit." "Wh-what ...?" Gina stammered. "Try to remove it." Gina scrabbled at her waist, her fingers fumbling in her desperation, taking a few agonizing moments to find the belt buckle. Yet as her fingers prodded and poked at it, she could not get the strap to push back through the loop. Her breathing grew more ragged and more frightened the more she tried and the more she failed. Frantic, she grabbed at the straps of her top, but they would not loosen. Her garters would not unfasten. The straps on her shoes would not come undone. She could not even fit her fingers under the edge of the fishnets to pull them down. Tears were streaming down her face now as she straightened up in the chair. Victor dropped to his knee again. "The point of this, Gina," he said. "Is this: You are trying to get involved in forces beyond your comprehension. You cannot remove your outfit because I do not wish you to remove it. That is the kind of power you are dealing with. Stop before you get hurt." He reached down and tugged at her pants one last time. Gina's pussy exploded. Her orgasm was so intense that her hips jerked back in the chair with each throb, nearly tipping her over and spilling her to the floor. Yet there were no moans of relief nor cries of ecstasy. from her, no more than a hard, staccato "Uh! Uh! Uh!" as she throbbed. It was an orgasm that was merely a release, devoid of the normal pleasure that usually accompanied the act. As her vagina continued to convulse, Victor said softly, "Go to your little dance tomorrow. Go show Jes a good time. Go get yourself fucked. And don't concern yourself with matters of which you have no understanding." Her orgasm continued unabated through his whole speech to her, and for a full minute more after he quietly walked out the door, driving Gina almost as mad as her arousal had. When it finally faded, Gina felt drained, her pussy no longer aroused, but not quite satisfied, and she felt as if she had just been cheated. In a daze, Gina slowly stood up. As she staggered towards her bed, she noticed that the pants felt looser. She reached down and tugged at the waist, and discovered that it had some give. Finally, she tried the belt. It quickly came undone in her fingers. Gina shuddered. He had released her. But he had done it because he wanted to, not because she needed it. What seemed like a mercy at first was anything but, for it simply emphasized just how much control he appeared to have. Gina awoke in the middle of the night from a very fitful sleep, her body having tossed and turned until the sheets lay twisted around her and the blanket yanked from one corner of the mattress. She lay naked on her bed, staring up at the dark ceiling. She had been so tired when she finally went to bed that she collapsed into bed right after her shower and drifted off without bothering to change into her night clothes. Yet even as tired as she had been, her sleep had been anything but peaceful, as unsettling as her dreams had been. She could not get the Rite of Denial out of her head. She had gone back and read the story after Victor had gone, and it told her nothing more than it had before, even when she could look at it without getting as excited. It didn't make any sense to her. She understood how being denied orgasm could affect someone adversely, having just been tormented with that herself, but to go mad from simply being aroused? Gina remembered times she became sexually aroused when it was inappropriate, where she had to wait until she had a moment alone to satisfy it. She remembered being distracted by it. She remembered it making her tense. She remembered it making her find a sexual context in everything she looked at. But she could not remember it being something she would consider a torture. The more she thought about it, the more she wondered if she were making the wrong connection. The Rite of Denial, no matter how bad it might be, certainly could not kill someone, could it? Surely it was something else that killed that girl? Gina turned over and tried to get back to sleep, but before she could drift off again, muffled sounds of distress floated through the darkness to her ears. With a pang of guilt, she remembered that Victor said he had not yet punished her mother for her latest transgression. As the sounds of anguished yet subdued moaning steadily rose, she realized that he must be tending to it right that moment. She tried desperately to ignore it. She tried to stuff her pillow over her head, but still she heard them. The sounds were urgent and pleading, tormented and piteous, but from the way they continued unabated, they obviously had little effect in the way of finding mercy. Yet they were not accompanied by the soft smacking sounds of a hard paddle against tender flesh. Whatever he was doing, it was very different. Gina could not stand it anymore. Her own curiosity was getting the better of her. And as much as she was loathe to admit it, the sounds were making her tingle with renewed excitement. She slipped out of bed. She did not bother putting anything on, as there hardly seemed any point now that he had already seen her naked. Cautiously she opened the door, her mother's muffled cries coming to her more clearly. Just from the sound of her lament, it was obvious to Gina that she had been gagged. She looked towards her mother's bedroom, and again saw the flickering candlelight reflected on the wall. Was every punishment like this, she wondered? Was every disciplining a ritual, a ceremony, a sacred event? Gina did not feel quite as much fear as she did the first time she walked this hallway at night. It was as if she were resigning herself to the notion that there was little more Victor could do to her. She padded carefully to the doorway and very slowly peered inside. Gina had been right about her mother's voice, as she could easily see the large red ball gag lodged in her mouth. She was stretched out on the bed on her back this time, naked, her wrists tied tightly to the headboard. Her feet were also restrained, but in a rather curious manner. Two metal bars had been placed across the foot of the bed, one at the level of the mattress, and one about six inches above it and further forward. Roberta's ankles were held down to the bottom bar with thick metal loops. Her feet were anchored in front of the top bar by another metal loop, one around each big toe. A very thin chain had been wrapped around the littlest toe, and the other end secured to the bedpost on that side, the chain pulled very taut, forced her toes to be spread apart. Victor sat in a chair facing the bottoms of Roberta's helpless feet, sitting quite at ease, his hand holding a long feather, the tip of which he leisurely brushed against Roberta's toes. He dipped the feather between them, wriggling it in and out, just making the lightest contact with the skin. As simple as this was, as wholly non-painful as a punishment can get, it was quite obvious to Gina as she watched with wide and rapt eyes that it was just as effective. Roberta writhed constantly on the bed, her feet jerking against the cold metal that so cruelly held them locked in place, cries of agony emerging from behind her gag. Her leg muscles twitched and contracted, trying to pull herself away, straining uselessly against her restraints. Gina swallowed. She knew her mother was an extremely ticklish woman. This was worse than a paddling to her. Victor slid the feather towards one of her little toes and prodded the spot between the smallest and its neighbor. Roberta gasped and wriggled her toes madly to stop the sensation. It was in vain, for now that he had found a particularly sensitive spot, he lay the feather there and slid it back and forth in a gentle see-saw motion. Roberta uttered a strident groan, and tears trickled from the corners of her eyes. "Amazing, isn't it, Roberta?" Victor said softly. "You grow aroused even from this." Her mother made a noise that sounded like denial. Victor laughed. "You forget that I can see your pussy from her, Roberta. It is quite, quite moist. Yes, you know you are aroused. You crave the punishment even as much as your shun it." Gina felt her pulse quicken. She retreated partially back into the hall again when he shifted in his seat. Victor withdrew the feather from between Roberta's toes and played it along the arch of her foot. "That's really the mark of a true slave, isn't it?" he continued. "Everything your master does excites you. You live for the attention that you receive from him, whether good or bad." Gina's mother was panting, as if proving his words. Gina suddenly felt very warm. "And, Roberta," Victor said in a lower voice, thought edged with excitement. "/She/ is just like that as well." "Nnnuurgh!" Roberta cried shaking her head violently. "Stop denying it. You know this to be true." Victor stood up. Gina stifled a gasp and took a step back until she was sure he was not coming from her. When she returned her gaze to the inside of the bedroom, he was standing by the side of the bed, running the feather very slowly up the inside of Roberta's thighs. Roberta trembled, moaning deeply and desperately. "Stop interfering, Roberta," Victor whispered in a deadly voice. "You feel aroused now. You feel teased and tormented." He flicked the tip of the feather at her clitoris, making her shudder and her hips rise. "You feel a great need for my attentions on you. You don't care how I do it. My finger, my tongue, my cock, it matters not. Imagine not getting it. Imagine being /denied/." The way he spoke the word made Gina shiver despite how flushed she felt. Roberta turned her head to one side, breathing hard. "Once more, Roberta. Once more and it is the Rite. And /she/ will follow. And, hopefully ..." Victor flicked the feather at one of her nipples. Roberta whimpered mournfully. " ... Hopefully she will make better decisions that you have lately." Gina withdrew from the doorway and quickly headed back to her room. By the time she got back, her heart was pounding hard in her chest and she was trembling. She was starting to understand something. The cult was not just about physical slavery. It was a complete enslavement, mind and body. Something was done to them, something changed them, to make them crave their own enslavement, preventing them from even wanting to get out. They made them grow excited no matter what was done to them, no matter how cruelly they were treated. Yet her mother must not be completely converted. She can resist him. She still needed "correction". Gina swallowed and looked down. She gently slid a hand down and between her legs. Her folds were damp again. She took a deep breath and let it go, trying to stop herself from stroking herself, already knowing it was futile. For the first time, Gina realized she was in danger herself. Whatever he was doing to her mother and to Stephanie, it was spilling over to her. She couldn't worry about Stephanie anymore. She had to worry about her mother. Gina lay herself down on her bed. She let her hand continue plying her cunt, her wet heat enveloping her fingers in musky moisture. If she could just get herself through Halloween ... if Victor and his cohorts did their little ceremony ... if they were content with taking Stephanie ... maybe they would leave her mother alone. Or at least she would have some time to think of something to do. Yes, that's it. Just survive the next day. Get through it, and she could have room to breathe. Gina's moans joined those of her mother as she surrendered herself to her desire. Gina arose the next morning with the specific intent to avoid her mother. Her reasoning was this: if she did not interact with her mother, she would not tempt her mother to disobey Victor and earn the Rite of Denial. Fortunately, the fact that Roberta was still in bed when she headed out of her room with her books also helped, but it did not stop him from running into Victor at the bottom of the stairs. "I'm sure you're disappointed you cannot wear your lovely costume again until tonight," Victor said with a smile that held a trace of smugness to it. Gina said nothing, and simply looked impassively back at him, managing to hold her gaze level with his steel-blue eyes. A bit of Victor's smile faded, as if he were hoping for some other reaction. "Take care, Gina," he said, his eyes turning cold. "Remember what I told you yesterday." "I remember, sir," Gina said neutrally. She gripped her books more tightly to prevent herself from trembling, from showing even the least bit of weakness in front of him. "Perhaps, Gina, you'll get to read the final chapter of that story series that has had you so fascinated," Victor said silkily. "And perhaps, the ending will be a surprise to you." Gina blinked and gave him a nonplussed look. "Run along to school, now. And be sure you're home promptly, so you have time for dinner before your wonderful night out this All Hallow's Eve." Gina shuddered, quickly edging past him and out the door. She let the front door slam behind her, not caring if that perhaps violated yet another unspoken rule of Victor's. She fled down the steps and across the driveway, jogging quickly through the cold morning air. She kicked up dirt behind her as she pounded across the turnoff to Shady Lane and was just about to start up the hill and onto Fairview Drive. "Giiinnnaaa ...!" Gina skidded to a sudden stop. The call had been faint and ethereal, a hauntingly echoing voice riding on the icy morning breeze. Gina stood, petrified, her eyes wide, her breath fogging in front of her face. She swallowed and slowly turned her head. "Ginnnaaa ...!" Gina gasped loudly as the call came again, from somewhere down Shady Lane, stronger this time. It sounded like a girl's voice. "Y-yes?" Gina called out, her heart hammering. "Who-who's there?" "Giinnaa ...!" She swallowed and started towards the path, her eyes shifting back and forth quickly. She looked back towards the house for any sign that Victor had heard the voice as well, but everything was quiet and still, and there was no movement in any of the windows. "Gina!" came the cry again, and this time it was more distinct, and she recognized it at once. "S-stephanie??" "Gina, please!" And then Gina blinked in surprise, for all at once, Stephanie was simply there. She was standing off the side of the road, leaning up against a tree. She was still in her frilly french maid outfit, and despite the chill of the morning against her skin, she was not shivering. She was, however, panting, as if she had run a long way. She staggered, barely able to walk, her legs bending at the knees, her feet spread apart. Gina ran over to the girl, and as she got closer and could hear the noises that she was making, they sounded nothing like a girl who was winded from exertion. As soon as Gina came to a stop before her, Stephanie looked up with half-lidded eyes. "I c-can't get it to stop, Gina," she murmured huskily. "It ... M-my costume ... something in the bottom piece ... it keeps me wet a-all the time ..." Gina bit her lip and glanced worriedly towards the house. From this position, several thick trees blocked most of the side of her house from view, though not all of it. She took a step so that she was in a direct line between the house and Stephanie. She could at least give her that much protection. "I can't take it off!" Stephanie wailed. "Not even the garters! Not even ...!" "Shhh!" Gina hissed desperately. "Please, Stephanie, you have to be quiet! Victor is ..." "Why's he d-doing this to me, Gina?" Stephanie begged. "/How/ is he doing it?" Gina sighed despondently. "I don't know, Stephanie, but ..." "Victor w-wants me ... wants me t-to ..." Stephanie choked. She took a step towards Gina and moaned as her pussy squished against the crotch of her costume. "He wants me to ... t-to have sex with my b-boyfriend tonight. I ... " (she will no longer be virginal when she is ready for us) /Oh, dear God, that's it,/ Gina thought as the revelation came to her. That was the explanation for dressing Stephanie like this. The same things that he was doing to Gina to drive her mad with distraction were the same things he was using on Stephanie to "prepare" her for the cult. "Gina, I ... if I do that and my parents find out ...!" "Stephanie, listen to me!" Gina said. "Listen to me carefully. Whatever you do, do not have sex tonight. Do you hear me?" Stephanie moaned again. "But if I-I'm this horny, Gina ..." "No! Don't do it! Don't let him do it. Any night but tonight. Wait until tomorrow. Just not tonight. Not on Halloween. Do you hear me?" Stephanie gaped at Gina. "Yes, I hear you, but ..." "/Gina!/" Gina uttered a yelp and whirled around, backing up a step to better hide Stephanie from view. As she did, she just caught a glimpse of Victor leaning out of the dining room window. She swallowed. "Y-yes, sir?" she called back. "What are you doing over there, Gina?" Victor asked. "You will be late for your bus." "I ... I-I thought I saw ... s-saw something over here sir." A pause. "Saw what?" he asked, suspicion creeping into his voice. Gina's mind raced. "Just ... someone's cat," she said quickly. "But it ran off when I got here." Another pause. "You'll have time enough for that another day, Gina," he said in a lower voice. "Run along to school." "Yes, sir." She waited until he had closed the window before letting herself breathe again. "Stephanie, I can't stay any longer," she whispered. "If he catches me again, I'll really ... Stephanie? ... Steph ..." But when she turned around, the girl had again vanished without a trace. Gina had to hope that she had managed to help Stephanie in some way. She hoped she had interpreted correctly what she had overheard. She was not sure what it meant. She did not know why it mattered to them that she have sex before they took her in. Most mystic cults she had read about in fantasy or online fiction wanted their new initiates to be virginal. At least now she had eased her conscience a bit, and could focus on dealing with her mother and Victor. The day seemed to go by in a blur, time playing one of those funny tricks as it did with many, passing by quickly when all one wanted was for it to traverse slowly. She did not share the same excitement that everyone else at her school appeared to feel towards the dance that night. If anything, she was dreading it, for she was torn between wanting to leave early and spare her the embarrassment of a costume that would keep her constantly horny, and staying as late as possible and minimize the chance of getting her mother in trouble with Victor again. But the one thing she was dreading more than the dance that day was her English literature class. Gina had to stop herself from shuddering when Terri Hollis flashed a pleasant smile at her as Gina entered the room. Even though it was no different than her usual greeting, all Gina could think about was what the woman had made her mother do the day before, how she had pulled Roberta to her like a dog on a leash and made her lap at her cunt like a bitch in heat. Terri naturally conducted the class as if nothing had happened, which made Gina resent the woman even more. She would have almost preferred that her teacher drop her a wink or a knowing nod, at least acknowledging what she had did. It mattered not to her that Terri did not even know her student had witnessed the event in the first place. Gina was actually grateful when the bell rang and immediately bolted from her seat. "Gina, may I see you a moment?" She almost did not heed her teacher's request. She took a deep breath to calm herself as best as she could and turned back towards the teacher's desk. "Yes, Miss Hollis?" she asked in a quavering voice. Terri looked past Gina and waited until the rest of the students had left the room before speaking. She smiled at Gina. "Looking forward to this evening, Gina?" Gina swallowed. "Um ... I-I guess so," she said hesitantly. "Still wrestling with that little ... issue you mentioned last week?" Gina nodded silently. Terri paused a moment. "You know, Gina," she said in a soft voice. "You could do worse than Jes." "What?" "There are worse boys than him that could ask you to go that far." Gina felt flushed and did not reply. Why was she saying this to her? The corner of Terri's mouth flickered into a small smirk. "Jes is rather popular with the girls, Gina," she said. "I sincerely doubt this would be his first time with a girl, if you know what I mean." Gina felt the unwanted emotions threatening to wash over her again. "Miss H-hollis, I ... I don't think I'll do it." A pause. "Really, now," she said evenly. "It's my decision, isn't it?" Gina said defiantly. "Well, certainly it is, Gina. But ... is that what you want?" Gina sighed. That was not a fair question. It was not a matter of what she wanted, or she wouldn't be trying to ignore the heat in her loins. "I'm not ready," she said simply. Terri leaned back in her chair and folded her arms. Some of her calm veneer was cracking. "Be careful about making statements like that, Gina," she admonished. "Wouldn't I be the best judge of when I'm ready?" "That depends, now," she said, her voice a silky tone that Gina often heard from Victor. "Sometimes people don't realize they're ready for it until it's about to happen. You don't want to burn your bridges now, do you?" "Well ... no, but ..." "Then perhaps you should refrain from being hasty. Decide when the time comes, not now. So much can happen, Gina, in such a short time." Gina shivered. Terri smiled in satisfaction. "That's all, Gina," she said. "I'll see you at the dance tonight." Gina quickly fled from the classroom. No, she would not do it. She would not have sex with Jes, no matter how much her infernal custom tried to prime her for it, no matter how much Victor might want he to do it, no matter what Terri Hollis thought about it. Not tonight. Not (she will no longer be virginal) on Halloween. Just as a precaution. Not that she believed she was in as much trouble as Stephanie was, but ... it never hurt to play it safe. Gina went straight home, and she put extra effort into being properly obedient to Victor. She made sure she called him "sir" each time she spoke; she answered any question promptly; she did not give the smallest hint of disagreement; and most of all, she studiously avoided even so much as her mother's gaze. She even sat through the dinner meal without so much as a glance from her eyes that could be considered out of place. When dinner was over, and as her mother cleared the table, she dutifully turned to Victor and asked, "Shall I go get ready for the dance now, sir?" Roberta paused for just the briefest of moments after hearing this so graciously and politely -- and so obediently -- expressed from her daughter. She uttered a short, despondent sigh and continued with her task, carrying a load of dirty dishes into the kitchen with a brusque, frustrated step. Victor smiled at Gina. "Rather eager of you suddenly, isn't it?" he said. "Well, I don't want to hold up Jes when he arrives, sir," Gina said, which was partially true. "Or just perhaps, Gina, you are starting to look forward to the prospects of what the evening shall bring?" Shall bring. Not might bring. Shall bring. Gina felt a twinge of anxiety, but ignored it. She managed a smooth smile. "Yes, sir, I just might at that." Victor appeared pleased. "Splendid. Yes, Gina, you may go get ready. Certainly I would enjoy another look at you in your costume before I am forced to hand you over to Jes for the evening." Gina quickly rose from the table before the smile on her face could waver. Upstairs in her room, her heart started to thud in her chest as she slipped off her normal clothes and began to shimmy her body into the tight-fitting costume. So far, so good. She had managed to avoid causing anyone any grief whatsoever. Victor had not uttered a single whisper of complaint against her, or more importantly, her mother. Roberta had remained absolutely silent the entire evening, even when Victor gave her orders. Perhaps Victor had decided to require her silence as an added punishment. If this could last just a little longer ... She slipped the last part of her costume in place, pulling her breasts up as she secured the straps, feeling her nipples being rubbed as she did so. She took a deep breath and let it go, glancing over towards the bathroom. She realized that she had never actually looked at herself in this costume. Curious, she walked carefully towards it, watching herself so her heels did not snag the carpet. As she had expected, the pants clung unnaturally to her mound, stroking her pussy with each step. It was not going to be any easier that night than it had any other time she had worn this. Her shoes clacked loudly against the tile floor as she stepped into the bathroom. She turned towards the mirror, and her breath caught in her throat. Gina was astonished by what she saw. While she certainly never considered herself unattractive, and she knew the costume made her look good, she had not expected this. It was as if a whole different person was staring back at her. She looked incredibly sexy. She didn't think her breasts were this full and round, or her hips this gracefully rounded, or her waist this beautifully slim. She turned and closed the door so she could look at herself in the full length mirror. The effect on her legs was stunning. They looked long and slinky, her thighs wonderfully shaped. She smiled. The costume was not all that bad, actually. She opened the door and headed out of her room and slowly descended the stairs. She did not mind quite as much this time as Victor looked on with a rather pleased and not a little desirous look on his face. Even as she felt her cunt grow steamy again from her pants, she actually enjoyed the attention. Next to Victor, Roberta stood with an impassive look on her face as she watched her daughter. Gina risked a glance at her and could not tell what the woman was feeling at that point. Quickly Gina looked away. It was not going to be much longer, and then her mother would be safe. "Ah, you looked wonderful, Gina," Victor said. He chuckled and in a softer and conspiratorial tone of voice, he added, "And if you would pardon my crudeness for a moment, my dear, I would say that you look what the boys nowadays would refer to as ... very /fuckable/." Gina felt her cheeks burn at this comment, but it simply matched the similar feeling between her thighs. "Thank you, sir," she said in a weak voice. "And you are ready just in time, Gina, for I believe I heard a car drive ... ah." The doorbell rang. Victor turned to Roberta, snapped his fingers, and silently jammed a finger towards the stairs. Without a word, Gina's mother walked sedately up the stairs and into her bedroom, the door closing behind her. "Now, Gina," Victor said, taking her arm and leading her towards the door. "Stand over to the side of the entryway for a moment, just out of sight. Let's make this a bit if an entrance, hmm?" "Uh, yes, sir," Gina said. She momentarily glanced back towards the upstairs landing. Victor smiled at her, then stepped forward and opened the door. "Ah, you must be the young pirate named Jes." Gina heard Jes' poor imitation of a pirate come through the front door. "Aye, shiver me timbers, matey, but if it be the old sea dog himself, Mr. Caligano!" Victor laughed merrily. "Oh, quite a spot-on rendition, young man! But I am not Gina's father, merely a good friend of the family." "Oh, sorry about that," Jes said in his normal voice. "Is Gina ready, sir?" "Quite so, young man, and I daresay you will be quite pleased with her choice of costume." Gina swallowed. Her nervousness was starting to make her hands tremble. It was just hitting her now that she was going to be with this boy the whole evening. "She wouldn't tell me what it was, sir," Jes said. "Said she wanted it to be a surprise." "Then I do believe it will be a pleasant one." Victor stepped to the side and gave a dramatic flourish with his arm. Gina took a deep breath and stepped out from the side. Jes started greeting her as soon as he saw her coming into view. "Hey, Gina! Yo, ho, ho, and a bottle of ... /whoa!/" Jes' jaw would have fallen to the floor at that moment had it not been firmly attached to his skull. His eyes had opened as wide as saucers, staring in rapt amazement at Gina. Gina blushed anxiously again, though admittedly on some level she was rather flattered at his reaction. She even managed to smile a bit as she beheld his costume. It was indeed quite a good one, not quite as garish as some of them tend to be. At least this one did not have a dumb stuffed parrot on one shoulder. And she could not help but notice that the bottom part of his costume displayed the rounded bulge of his privates rather nicely. As her eyes lingered on it for another moment, a more distinct bulge grew slowly along the center of it, making her feel warm. "I would say that was a ringing endorsement, Gina, if you can make a boy like Jes speechless," Victor said with a sly grin. Now Jes' cheeks colored slightly at this comment. "Gina, you ... you look ... fabulous!" His eyes drifted down to her feet. "Wow, can you actually, you know, walk in those?" "Show him, Gina," Victor said. Gina should have known that was coming. She strolled slowly back and forth a few times before Jes, feeling vaguely like a prostitute strutting her body for a prospective customer. The pants churned against her already damp pussy. Jes swallowed and licked his lips, staring at her with barely disguised desire. "Wow," he whispered to himself, the ache in his crotch growing rather pronounced. "You two should run along to the dance now, kids," Victor said with a fatherly smile. "And Jes, no worries about curfew tonight." Jes blinked. "Say what?" "No curfew," he repeated. "This is a special night for Gina, being her first Halloween dance and all. Why spoil it with time limits?" Jes grinned broadly. "My thoughts exactly, sir!" he said brightly. He looked eagerly at Gina. Well, this was it, Gina thought. She started towards the door. She had just barely registered the sound of a door opening upstairs when she heard her mother's voice from the top of the stairs. "Gina, dear, wait." /Oh no!/ Gina thought in horror, and turned towards the stairs. At first she was relieved. Her mother was not naked. She was wearing a dress, even though from the way she now descended the stairs, and the way her breasts bounced under it and the fact that her feet were still bare, it was the only thing she was wearing. But then her relief turned to fear when she glanced at Victor, who was also looking up, and saw the rigid, rock-like expression on his face. "Roberta," he said in a low, even voice. "I thought you were not feeling well this evening." "Certainly you don't want me to miss seeing my daughter off to her first Halloween dance, do you?" she asked. Jes raised an eyebrow. He sensed something was odd here, but he felt it was really none of his business. He had heard that Gina's mother was a little strange anyway. All those rumors about what she /really/ did at the Li'l Missy Inn. He decided it was best just to be quiet. Besides, this way he could quietly enjoy the view of Gina's ass, and not do anything that would jeopardize his chances of seeing a whole lot more of that body before the evening was out. Gina could not read Victor's face. He was schooling his expression so carefully because of Jes that he could have been feeling anything at the moment. But she had the sinking feeling that her mother had just gotten into trouble again, and now Gina was going to have to leave the house! Gina stepped up to her mother quickly, meeting her halfway across the room. "Mother, why?" Gina whispered huskily. Roberta smiled as if she had not heard her daughter say a word. "Oh, you do look lovely, dear," she gushed. "Come give me a hug." Gina opened her mouth, totally nonplussed as her mother embraced her. Slowly she put her arms around her mother. "You're so lovely, Gina," her mother said. There was a pain in her voice. "You've grown up f-far too fast." "Mom, did you have permission to ..." Her mother broke off the embrace, smiling, holding each of her daughter's arms in her hands. Gina felt something in her mother's right hand scrape softly on her skin. "Now, Gina, I want you to have a nice time," Roberta said. Her hands slid down towards Gina's, and she felt it again. "A very nice time, Gina, I mean that." Their hands touched. Gina's eyes widened as her mother shoved something into her hand. Gina gave a short little gasp and very quickly curled her fingers tightly around it and dropped her hand to her side. "Now ... off to the dance with you, Gina, and remember ..." Roberta said, and this time there was a quaver in her voice. "Please remember ... I love you." Gina swallowed. "I l-love you, too," she said in a barely audible voice. She turned and headed towards the door, Jes smiling at her. She slid her eyes over to Victor's face with mounting dread ... ... and found a most satisfied smile upon his face. Gina hesitated in her confusion. "Get going, Gina," Victor said, eyes glittering. "You don't want to be late." Gina gripped the piece of note paper in her hand like a vise and headed out with Jes. The cool evening air nipped at her exposed skin, but she did not notice. Jes glanced behind him as the front door closed to the house. "Boy, Gina, that costume is ... wow!" he said. He laughed. "I just hope Miss Hollis lets you in the door with that one." Gina gave him a wan smile. "I have a feeling she'll have no problem with it, Jes." "Hope you're right." He grinned at her and added in a lower voice, "Though if she does, I'm sure we can find something else to do tonight." Gina nodded. The pants felt slick against her pussy, each clack of her heels against the driveway another gentle stroke against her tender flesh, each light bounce of her breasts a tingle on her hardened nipples. Jes kept looking at her as they headed to his car, which was an SUV parked in front of the driveway, his eyes darting to her jiggling bosom, her swinging hips, her lusciously smooth and silky legs. He was already starting to feel aroused by her, and now truly hoped Miss Hollis would send the both of them away directly. He had much better ideas of what he wanted to do with this girl that night. It was what he had intended from the start. The unpopular, shy girls were /always/ easy, he discovered, but he never thought in a million years that Gina was not only easy, but drop-dead sexy as well. Or, as Victor had put it, very /fuckable/. Until then, he played the part of the gentleman. He opened the passenger door for her and helped her in before dashing around to the driver's side and hopping in. With nary a pause between slamming the door and turning the key in the ignition, he pealed away from the curb, flipped a ragged U-turn, and sped up Fairview Drive. Gina still had the note in her hand. She unfolded it briefly and saw that it indeed had writing on it, but it was too dim in the car to read it, as there were no street lamps along this stretch of Fairview Drive. "You really do look nice in that outfit, Gina," Jes said with a grin, glancing over to her. "Where did you get it?" Gina quickly crushed the note back into her hand. "Uh ... my ... Victor got it for me." "Victor? Oh, is he the dude that answered the door?" Gina nodded. Jes chuckled. "Wish more girls had 'friends of the family' like that." Gina paused. A small smile played across her lips. "You really think I look good in this?" she asked. "Gina, you look more than okay in that. I'm going to have a hard time keeping the other guys away from you tonight." She blushed at the idea, but rather liked the compliment. "Just remember that you're my date, okay?" he said. Despite the smile on his face, there was an undertone of seriousness to his voice. "Yes, I'll remember." She managed a small chuckle. "I better remember, since you're the one that drove me to the dance in the first place. I wouldn't want to be stranded." "Oh, trust me, Gina," Jes said with a sly grin reminiscent of Victor. "That's one thing you won't have to worry about. You'll definitely be coming with me after the dance." Gina felt a small shudder at the way he phrased that, and a tingle of excitement as well. Even though she sat still in her seat, the small bumps and dips in the road made her pants rub against her mound, keeping her at a constant low level of sexual arousal. A small part of her was actually looking forward to the end of the dance and what might happen. The soon reached the intersection with Orchard Street, which headed west towards the High School. As he made the turn, pale light from street lamps shone through the windows. While Jes was preoccupied with traffic, Gina quickly unfolded the note and held it to the light. What it said was short and simple, but made her heart leap into her throat: /Please no sex!!!/ Gina quickly crumpled the note back up and squeezed it tightly in her hand. /No sex./ Her mother had told her not to have sex. Why? Why would she tell her such a thing? (she will no longer be virginal) She glanced back over to Jes. She could feel a growing longing, a desire to really experience what it was all about, yet here at the last minute she was being told no. But why give /her/ the warning? It was Stephanie they wanted, right? It shouldn't matter what Gina did. Should it? Gina felt her anxiety mounting again as Jes pulled into the parking lot of Haven High School. There were already a good number of cars present, and several small gaggles of students in costume hanging out nearby. The familiar nerves she had about being around a large crowd of people made her stomach flutter, and she suddenly felt very vulnerable, more so than if she had been stark naked. Gina hoped that Jes would park away from the others, but he instead pulled right up near the closest knot of students, grinning from ear to ear. He knew he was going to have the sexiest-looking date of any guy at that dance, and he damn well intended to show her off like a trophy. He had not expected to do that with her, but damned he be if he were not going to take advantage of it and score a few more points on the teenage popularity meter. Gina reached for the door handle after her turned the engine off, but he quickly tapped the master lock button and stopped her. "No, no," he said, waving an admonishing finger. "Allow me." Gina flashed a weak smile at him. She waited until he came around the passenger side and opened the door for her, taking her hand and escorting her from the car. As she looked up, she saw that none of the others had quite noticed them yet, laughing at some joke one of them made. She hoped to remain inconspicuous, but her heels made a distinct clacking noise against the asphalt, and it took only a few steps before one of the other boys glanced in her direction. He promptly did a double-take, and then let loose with a loud, long wolf-whistle that stopped conversation just about everywhere in the parking lot. Gina swallowed and felt her cheeks burned as she was now subjected to the burning, lustful stares of about a dozen male teenagers and the shocked and jealous stares of almost an equal number of females. As Jes escorted her towards the school, he made no attempt to hurry, letting everyone get an eyeful. As a result, Gina got an earful in return. From the boys, uttered exclamations of surprise mixed with comments that ranged from mildly appreciative to downright lewd and revolting. From the girls, she heard muttered grumblings over Jes having chosen a slut over them, or questioning just how much she had stuffed her top, or suggesting she was better off at a whorehouse rather than the school. Gina felt her heart beating fast, but in excitement rather than in fear or distress. What a stir she was causing! And all because she looked really sexy in this outfit. Moreover, she was starting to /feel/ that way. As she walked, her cunt grew hot and moist. She almost welcomed it. Up ahead of them on the school steps stood Terri Hollis, dressed as a witch. She was stopping each student that approached the doors, giving them a check over before letting them proceed. One boy she started to let through, then abruptly grabbed his arm and hauled him back. With a look of disdain on her face she plucked a very small bottle of Vodka from a pocket on the boy's wizard's robes. She confiscated it and sent the boy away. "Shit," Jes murmured. "I hope we can get in with that costume of yours." Gina felt a bit of trepidation as they walked up to her. Terri smiled pleasantly at the two of them. "Good evening, and Happy Halloween," she said. "Um, evening, Miss Hollis," Jes said with an impish though uneasy grin. "Now, before you go in, you have nothing on your person that is against the rules?" "Oh, no, not at all, Miss Hollis," Jes said. He snorted and jerked a thumb over his shoulder. "Can't believe how stupid that other guy was." Terri looked over to Gina and grinned. "It's obvious you're not carrying anything. Where would you put it?" Gina gave her a polite smile and Jes managed a chuckle. Feeling like he needed to make a save, he said, "Um, if her costume is too much, I have another jacket in the car that ..." "Oh, no, she's quite fine, Jes." Jes paused in surprise, and then slowly smiled. "Of course, Miss Hollis." "I would say she'll be quite the center of attention," Terri commented. "Now, go inside and have some fun." Jes grinned and quickly ushered Gina inside. Truer words had not been spoken by anyone else that night. Gina did indeed attract a crowd, a thick semi-circle of boys that before now had never noticed her, but suddenly found her to be utterly fascinating. Gina was actually grateful for it at first, for it shielded her from the much bigger crush of people in the center of the room. But as time went on, she grew increasingly uneasy. Their presence and the attention they lavished on her was making her excited in ways that her costume alone could not. She was distracted from this only when Jes was standing close by to her, and then her thoughts swung towards him instead. The more the boys crowded around her, the closer he stood, until he finally placed an arm around her waist, as if claiming her. This made Gina's skin flush hot to the point where she started to perspire. Jes finally had enough of the attention himself and started urging Gina away from the others, walking her over to the punch table. He gave her a smirk. "Boy, you're really causing a stir, huh?" he said with a short laugh. Gina smiled weakly. "I was sort of surprised myself." "I just never knew you ... you looked so nice." She felt her skin tingle at the praise. Her eyes darted over him, drifting downward briefly, alighting on the bulge between his legs. She looked up and swallowed, Jes gazing back at her with a desirous look in his eyes. "Let's not stay too late," Jes said. He took a step towards her. Gina took a half-step backwards, but her ass bumped against the table behind her. He placed his hands on the edge of the table, an arm on either side of her, trapping her where she was. She looked at him, his face inches from her own. "You don't like crowds anyway, right?" Gina swallowed and shook her head, too anxious to speak. "I think you're a really cool girl, Gina," Jes said, grinning. "I'd love to just spend some time with you alone." Gina's heart pounded. He wanted to be alone with her. He was actually attracted to her. It was a novel experience for her. Even though she had dated and had been asked on dates, she never had a guy that blatantly tell her he liked her. She glanced over to the clock, which had barely reached nine. It was way too early for her to leave if she did not want to risk getting her mother in trouble. And then there was her mother's written plea to her. No sex. She just wish she knew /why!/ "Maybe later, Jes," she finally said to him. "Not ... not right now." Jes gave her a smirk. "You do think I'm cool, too, don't you?" "Huh? Oh, yes, of course," Gina said quickly, smiling nervously. "Why wouldn't I?" "I don't know, I just wanted to make sure. You being the silent type and all that." "No, really, you're okay. You're ... you're very nice," she said in a softer voice. Gina could not deny that she was growing steadily more and more excited at his presence, feeling a heat beyond mere warmth at his closeness to her. "Well, good. Hey, how about this, Gina? We stay for a dance or two, and then maybe think about heading out." Gina blinked and felt trepidation creep over her. "D-dance?" she asked in a small voice. "Sure. That's what most everyone here came for anyway." She glanced over his shoulder at the frenzied movements of some of her peers. She sincerely doubted she could manage anything like that, even without high-heels on. She started to shake her head. "Jes, I don't know how to dance." "Oh, it's not that hard, really." "I ... I'd afraid of falling over in these things," Gina said desperately, looking down at her feet briefly. Jes gave a small sigh. When he spoke again, impatience was beginning to edge his voice. "You can't be a wallflower all the time, Gina. You have to live a little." "But ..." "Now, give me a minute for a bathroom break, and then we either dance or we leave, okay?" He turned and left her before she had a chance to reply. Gina gave a forlorn sigh. She was not going to have much choice in the matter. She was going to have to go home early and hope everything worked out. Gina had to move about the auditorium a bit as she waited to escape being crowded by the other boys, some of whom were waiting eagerly to jump at the chance of finding her alone now that there was a break in the music. She glanced anxiously towards the doors that led to the main corridor inside the school for Jes' return. When she finally spotted him, she was about to start towards him when Terri Hollis suddenly appeared and drew the boy's attention. Gina stopped where she was and edged over to the side so she was hidden from Terri's view behind a large skeleton hanging from the ceiling. She watched as some words were exchanged, until Jes gave Terri an inquisitive look, which was returned by a shrug. Terri then handed to him a small folded piece of paper and promptly turned away. Gina followed her teacher with her eyes briefly as Terri headed over to where the deejay was seated before returning her gaze to Jes. Jes took a few steps and opened the note. As he did, Gina could see that the name "Jessie" had been written on the outside, with a large heart as the dot over the "i". As his eyes scanned the note, a very wide and satisfied smile came to his face, along with a touch of smugness. Looking like the cat that just ate the canary, he folded the note back up and tucked it into a pocket on his costume, and started looking around. Gina felt a vague sense of unease at what she had just seen and shrunk further back behind the prop. What was that all about? About that moment, the music started up again, and a knot of students squeezed by her, forcing her to step out from behind the skeleton. Jes saw her and eagerly jogged over to her. Gina tried to take the initiative. "Jes, about what you said, I think we ..." And to her surprise, he reached over and placed a finger on her lips. "Shh," he said softly, grinning. "I understand completely, Gina." "Huh? You do? But ..." He took her hands and started leading her to the dance floor. She was about to object and remind him of her inability to dance until she saw that the deejay had switched to something with a slower tempo, and all the others were moving much more slowly and much more closely. Jes gave her a smile that made her heart pound. "Now just don't worry about it any more, Gina," he said. "Just follow my lead. For everything." Gina swallowed, her legs trembling as she walked with him into the middle of the dance. Before she could think to ask him what he meant by that, he was sliding an arm around her waist and drawing him close until she felt his warm body press against hers. /Oh my God,/ Gina thought desperately. Even the light touch of his body against hers was enough to send her desires to a fever pitch. As the dance progressed, his strong hand pressed into her back, caressing the bare skin lightly, pulling her closer to him. She felt the soft mounds of her breasts touch his chest, lightly at first, then harder, the flesh squeezed against him, her nipples tingling and rippling with pleasure. His hand slid downward a touch, fingers flirting with the waist of her pants. The gyrations of her hips and her legs as he led her in dance made her costume stroke her trapped cunt until it felt as if it were about to boil over with her lust. She clutched at him, panting softly as her body was coaxed into greater heights of arousal, an arousal with a whole new feeling to it. (Please no sex) Her mother's admonishment to her seemed so out of place to her now, so immaterial. It had made little sense to her before, and it was making even less now. Jes was sparking a burning need inside her that she was finding difficult to ignore. Never had she so badly wanted to take that last step before in her life. She barely noticed the music had stopped until Jes gently extricated himself from her. She looked at him with a sultry gaze, breathing quickly. She had to calm herself down! She could not make any decisions in a state of mind like this! Jes looked her over, his eyes sweeping her body quite obviously and shamelessly. "That got you a bit excited, didn't it?" he asked with a sly grin. Gina was too nonplussed to reply. "Just like you thought it would," he added. Gina gave him an odd look. "Like /I/ thought ... I don't ..." But he placed a finger against her lips again, and once again, she silenced herself immediately. She found the gesture to be very erotic, and it made her desire burn just that much more brightly inside her. "No need for talk," Jes said. "I said I understand. You don't have to talk." Gina was thoroughly confused, and barely able to think from the intense pressure in her loins. She swallowed again and tried to take a deep breath to calm herself, but it did little good. "This would be a good time to leave, don't you think?" Jes said with a wide grin. "Uh ... y-yes ... yes, we better," Gina said helplessly. What choice did she have? If she stayed any longer with him, she knew she might make a decision that she'd regret later. If she had any chance of abiding by her mother's warning, she had to get out now while she still had some of her wits about her. A smugly smiling Jes started to lead Gina away from the dance floor. They had barely gone a few steps when Terri Hollis suddenly appeared before them. "Gina," she said. "If you have a moment, I have a message for you." Gina looked askance at her. "A message? About what? From whom?" But Terri would not answer her. "If you just come this way?" she said. "It will only take a moment." Jes sighed through his nose, but did not dare say anything in protest. He could not see himself telling his teacher to bug off because he was about to get his chance to fuck a girl that had the hots for him and didn't want anything to spoil it. Anxiety rose in Gina as she followed Terri towards the main corridor. She felt like everything was about to collapse in on her. They emerged into the corridor, Terri carefully waiting until the door swung closed before speaking. "I have a phone message from your house." "From my ... " Gina began, trailing off, her heart sinking. "Mom?!" "Yes, it was about your mother," Terri said placidly. "Nothing the matter, Gina. She just had to leave the house unexpectedly and might not be home when you get there. She didn't want you to worry." Gina's mind raced in full-blown panic. Her mother /had/ disobeyed Victor! And now she had crossed him for the third time. And that meant ... Terri started over towards the door back to the auditorium, smiling. There was a faint bit of smugness to it. "Now, let's get back to ..." "What time is the ceremony, Miss Hollis?" Gina demanded. Terri paused. She turned her head and raised an eyebrow slightly. "Pardon?" "The ceremony, Miss Hollis!" Gina cried. "The one being held at the old church tonight!" Her smiled faded a touch. "Ceremony? Old church? I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about, Gina," she said in a patronizing voice. "Yes, you do, stop denying it. It's the Rite, isn't it? The Rite of Denial?" Terri remained silent. Gina had no choice. If she got in trouble for it later, so be it. "I overheard all of you," she said in a quavering voice. "You were at my house yesterday. You and eleven others. In black robes. Talking about ..." Terri stormed up to her and loomed over her, causing Gina to abruptly fall silent and to tremble silently, her teacher staring at her with eyes like ice. "That's quite enough, Gina," she said in an urgent, soft but angry voice. Her lips curled into a sneer. "So you heard it. So you know about it. Big deal. It makes no difference to us now. It's too late for you to do anything about it." Gina's lip trembled. "You ... you have my mother ..." she breathed. Terri smiled coldly. "Her own choice, Gina. You see, she was a /bad little girl/." Gina shuddered. "Gina, just don't concern yourself with her. There's nothing you can do." "I ... I know about S-Stephanie too!" Gina blurted. "I'll tell the police!" Terri gave Gina a confused look for a moment. "Stephanie?" she said absently. "Oh, yes, Stephanie Fowler. Lot's of luck getting the police to believe you about that one, considering how long it's been." Now it was Gina's turn to be confused. "But ..." "You should get back to your date now, Gina," Terri said with a sly grin. "I have a feeling he's very anxious to be with you again." Gina swallowed. Despite her worry and her fear for her mother, her body was still wracked with raw sexual desire. Now that her anger towards Terri was slipping into despair, the feelings she had temporarily ignored in her fury were flooding back to her. Terri smiled. "You do really look quite darling in that costume, Gina," she said with an evil chuckle. "And I'm sure Jes will just love what it has done to you." "I-I'm not going to ...!" "Try telling that to Jes." Terri placed a hand on Gina's shoulder. "Now, let's get you back to him before he thinks you've run off. After all ... I'm sure he'd prefer you to be a /good little girl,/ now, wouldn't he?" The words had an electric effect on her. Gina could not get herself to pull away from her teacher. She could not disobey her. She let herself be led back into the auditorium and to the waiting Jes. Yet as soon as Terri was out of earshot, Gina managed to shake off her influence with tremendous effort. When Jes put an arm around her, she clutched at him desperately. "Jes, take me out of here," she said in a voice that was almost a moan. "Take me over on Old Fairview Drive, where the old church ..." "Of course, Gina," Jes said, smiling widely. "I can't explain why, Jes, just ..." "I said before, Gina, you don't need to. You don't need to say anything. It will be fine, trust me." Gina looked at him and uttered a long sigh. She had no choice in the matter. She had to. "Okay," she said, and let him led her out the door. The drive down Orchard Street was quiet. Neither spoke a word to each other. Gina kept looking anxiously out the window, wondering what she was going to do. Jes kept making furtive glances at Gina, growing slowly more excited the further he drove. He passed the intersection with Fairview Drive and continued onward. Traffic vanished as he headed into a less-traveled part of town, the street lamps becoming fewer and further between, drowning the inside of the car in darkness. Finally the car slowed as Jes made the turn at Old Fairview, tires crunching as they rolled from asphalt to gravel and packed dirt, the car headlights the only available light on this dark and moonless Halloween night. Despite the clarity of the air and the straightness of the road, the beams did not seem to pierce the nighttime shroud very far, giving Gina a chill and making her feel as if she were wrapped up in a cocoon. So complete was the silence that she flinched when Jes spoke, even though his voice was low and soft. "I know you probably don't want me to mention it," Jes said. "But I have to tell you Gina. That was the coolest thing any girl's done for me." Gina looked over to him, though the only light that fell on her face were from the dashboard lights, and he did not register her surprise until she spoke. "I don't understand." "The note, of course." "The what?" Gina said, her voice faltering as she remembered what Terri Hollis had handed him earlier. "Oh ... the note," she breathed, her heart thumping. "I've gotten love notes from girls before, Gina, but, ah, never quite like that one." Gina felt her insides twist. Terri Hollis had forged a note from her. And she had no idea what it said. "And that took guts, having Miss Hollis deliver it. She could have just flipped it open right there and read it." "What ... what part did you like best?" Gina asked in a nervous voice. Jes grinned. "A girl gives a note tell me she has the hots for me, what's there not to like about it?" "O-of course," she said shakily. She brought a trembling hand to her breast, trying to steady her breathing so she could calm herself and think. It was little use. She felt fear over what Terri had written to him supposedly from her, and excitement over what Jes might expect of her because of it. The desires that had been awakened in her now stirred again, and her pussy grew excited and sensitive of its own accord. "I did everything you wanted, Gina," Jes said, his voice low and husky. The car began to slow down. "I danced with you. Close. You said it would drive you crazy. I made sure I didn't let you talk too much. Don't let me protest, you said." Gina started panting, heart racing as the car began to pull over. "Jes ..." she said in a tiny voice. "You wanted some place secluded," he continued, excitement rising. "Somewhere quiet. Somewhere /dark/." Gina swallowed as the car rolled to a stop. "J-jes, I d-didn't ..." And then the headlights and dashboard lights died as the car was turned off. "Quiet now, Gina," Jes said in a soft but insistent voice near her ear. "I want you to do everything. That's what you said. Everything." She heard a movement, saw his vague outline shift. There was a small click, and a tiny flashlight ignited. He dropped it to the floor of the car between their seats, where it provided only a feeble light, but more than enough for Jes to find her, and for it to begin, Victor's words haunting her mind as it happened. (A touch) She felt his hand alight on her thigh, just at the top of her fishnets. Gina trembled in her seat as she felt him as just a soft presence against her, barely visible in the dimness. (A caress) Gina opened her mouth to protest, but nothing would come out. She watched with eyes that were both scared and sultry as his fingers slid across her flesh, slipping down along the inside of her thigh. Her body flushed warm, then hot. Her loins ached, her legs quivering with the desire to part for him. She managed to resist him for only another few moments, for ... (A growing insistence) ... then his need grew more urgent. He turned in his seat, leaning over to her, the hand on her thigh tugging, softly at first, and then more insistent. She made a last feeble attempt to stop him, to stop herself and the cavalcade of lust and raw need that was threatening to bury her and wash away all her thoughts of her mother and the trouble she was in. She started to lean away from him, one hand groping for the door handle. (A cup of a hand around a soft breast) "Uhn ..." Gina moaned as Jes' fingers squeezed her breast, her voice a desperate, longing pant. Her hand fell away from the door handle, her head tilting back, a breathy sigh issuing from her throat. She felt a strap loosened behind her and come undone, the breast bouncing free, a moment before ... (A flick of a finger across aroused flesh) ... his finger flicked at her erect and already sensitized nipple, making her writhe in her seat, bending forward to press herself more firmly into his touch. He rubbed at it, squeezed it, tugged at it, mercilessly sending shock waves of pleasure through her body. She struggled to contain it, to will herself to lift her hands, to close her legs against him. Then his hand left her breast, but before she could seize the moment ... (A stroke in an intimate place) ... his hand slid under her pants, and his fingers pressed directly against aching, slick folds. The impact of his touch made her reel. She had never felt anything but her own fingers in her own pussy, and it held nothing to the touch of another. She panted heavily as he slid over her clitoris and probed the lips guarding her vagina. "Good Lord," Jes murmured in amazement. "I've never had a girl get wet /this/ fast ..." Her legs parted as wide as the could in the confined space of the car. Her hips rose to his touch, urging him to probe her more deeply, encouraging him to slide his finger inside her, where she moaned more insistently. Her want was growing as great as his, the need for it to be satisfied a powerful ache. Gina was barely aware of the move to the back of the car. She did remember seeing the blankets and the cushions laid our carefully in the back of the SUV, the back seats already folded down. He had prepared for this. This had been his intent all along even back when he first asked her to the dance. She was an easy mark for him, an easy lay. Gina didn't care. She gave into her intense need. (A surrender) Now her skirt slid from her hips and down her legs with a frantic urgency of a boy who himself was more intensely aroused than he thought possible. Already he had stripped himself, his hard, aching cock bobbing in the dimness under him, the object of Gina's longing gaze. Yet as frantic as he was, something told him to slow down. Do not get it over with too fast. Play it out. Gina gasped as he slid over her, her panting growing feverish with anticipation, her legs parting willingly for him, her cunt hot and swimming. She heard Jes' excited breathing above her as he positioned himself over her. Gina tilted her head back as something swollen and firm pressed against the lips of her pussy. The next moment ... (A slow entry) ... she uttered a long, soft moan as she felt him slide into her, igniting emotions she never felt before, paling in comparison to anything she felt from her own hand, or from a story, or from her own mind. "Oh, man, Gina, you're tight ..." Jes murmured softly as his hips started to rock against her. Gina felt her mind as well as her body surrender to him. She was his. Her pleasure was not simply the touch of him inside her but the fact that she was giving him pleasure, that her body was there for him. Her entryway was tight because it pleased him. (A press of a body against another) Gina felt his weight on her, his body pinning hers down, rendering her helpless to resist him even if she were of the mindset to do so. His hips pumped back and forth, steadily faster, his breathing growing short. Gina turned her head to one side, moaning deeply, their coupling enslaving her body to his, making her an extension of his own sexual pleasure. (A rising ecstasy) And as this thought sounded in her mind and her heart, her own body responded, her breathing growing ragged as she began to rise. She lifted her hips to his, making his entry easier and deeper, their bodies slapping together softly in the darkness. Jes groaned loudly, his own pressure building, his cock straining as he rose, his movements more and more urgent. Gina soared, gasping as she approached her peak, yet holding right at the edge, whimpering in desperation for final relief. But the relief would not yet come, for the one that was her master at that moment in time had not concluded his pleasure. Jes thrusted faster and faster until finally he uttered a loud, guttural groan and thrust his hips forward, burying himself as his cock throbbed hard inside her, pumping furiously. Gina threw her head back and cried out, the paroxysms of her orgasm reverberating through her body, a sheer ecstasy unmatched by anything else, driving all worry, all concern from her mind, leaving her with only the intense throbbing pleasure of her body coupled to his. "Oh, man, Gina, that was /awesome!/" A soft smile crossed Gina's face as they both returned to the front of the SUV. She had her costume back on, but now it was just a costume. Whatever magic had been imbued within it was gone, having been shattered by the intense pleasure of her first sexual intercourse, or simply because it had done the job it had set out to do. She barely even noticed she was still wearing it. The impact of her experience had left her a little dazed. Her mind drifted, replaying the moments of her orgasm in her head, of feeling his orgasm inside her. The full impact of what had happened to her, of her virginity irretrievably lost, had yet to strike her. Jes took his place behind the wheel, paused, then let another exclamation of delight. "Wow, Gina! I never knew you were so ... well ..." "So fuckable?" Gina said with a grin. Jes blinked, then laughed. "Yeah, I guess you could say that. I can't believe you don't have guys lined up to date you." The strange thing about it was, however, she did. Many boys had asked her. And asked her again when she had refused them. Did they somehow know? There was something ... troubling about that. "Anyway ... I guess I should take you home now," Jes said. "I know Victor said we could stay out late ..." Gina froze. " ... but the way your Mom gushed over you before we left ..." Finally, the thought of her mother, and the trouble she was in, impacted with her mind like a hurricane, blowing away the fog that had settled over her mind. "/Mom!!/" she screamed. Jes jumped and banged his knee against the steering column. "Ow! Shit! Gina, what the hell was that about?!" Gina's eyes blazed fear. What was she doing? What had she been thinking? Her mother was in trouble and she ... (Please no sex!!!) ... was having sex with ... Gina's blood became ice. Somewhere in the back of her mind, she was painfully aware that she had done something dreadfully wrong. Jes blinked in astonishment at the transformation. "Gina?" he asked tentatively. "Jes, s-start the car," Gina said. "We have to get going." Jes nodded quickly and cranked the ignition. "Right, I'll, uh, get you right home." "/No!/" Gina cried. "The old church! You have to get me to the old abandoned church!" "What?! Gina, what the fuck are you ..." "Jes, please, let's go!!" "Jesus ..." Jes muttered, flipping on the lights and peeling away from the curb, kicking up gravel behind him in a brief screech of spinning tire. "Any chance you'll tell me what the hell is up with you?" Gina swallowed. She doubted very much that anything she could tell him would be believed at this point. "P-please, Jes," she said in a low voice. "I can't explain it, I ... I just think my Mom is in trouble." Jes gave her an odd look. "How the hell do you figure that?" "Something ... something Miss Hollis told me." "And you didn't think about it until now?" Gina opened her mouth but closed it again without speaking. She had no answer for him. Everything leading up to her sexual encounter with him was a blur. Even the encounter itself seemed surreal to her, as if it were in a dream rather than real. It did not dawn on Gina until they had started down the road aways that she did not know quite exactly where the abandoned church was even by daylight, and now she was expected to find it in the dark of a moonless night. The church had burned several times since it was abandoned in the 1970s, mostly due to wild grass fires in drought seasons. There was little left of it, and what there was could be hidden by the tall grasses, grasses that only started to die back in November. Jes was no help in locating it either, as he was not what one would call a student of local history, and he lived on the other side of town. Gina had him stop the car so she could get out on foot with the flashlight, its tiny beam hardly illuminating anything more than a few feet from her. Walking in high-heels was impossible here, so she left them in the car, only to wince at the gravel and rocks scratching her stocking feet and tearing the fishnets. After the third time of this, Jes lost his patience with it. "All right, that's it," he declared, gunning the engine as he pulled back onto the road. "No more!" "Jes, please!" Gina cried. "Slow down, we may pass it." "No, Gina! I said no more of this shit! I'm taking you home and that's the end of it!" Gina's eyes glistened. "Please, Jes," she said in a husky voice. Jes sighed as he looked at her, his expression softening a bit, but his words no less firm. "Gina, you're a nice girl, okay? And you're freaking /great/ in the sack. But you're weirding out me now, see?" Gina's attention drifted out towards the road in front of them. Something appeared in the distance in the lights of the car. "Are you listening to me, Gina?" Jes demanded. Gina lifted a hand and pointed. The figure in the distance was growing closer as they sped towards it. "Jes ..." Jes glanced out the front of the car, sighed, and shook his head. "See, Gina? See what I mean? Look, are you playing a Halloween prank on me now? Is that it?" "Jes!" Gina said urgently. The figure was a girl, running. Her naked skin flashed in the headlamps. He glanced forward again, resumed talking to her. "Because those ain't cool. I hate 'em. So you might was well just let me in on ..." "/JES, LOOK OUT!!/" Gina shrieked as the girl loomed right in front of the speeding car. "What? Huh? There's nothing ... /WHAT THE FUCK ...?!!/" Gina had reached over and wrenched the steering wheel hard to the right. The SUV spun right, side wheels digging hard into the gravel, sending up a large spray of rock and dirt. For a heart-stopping second, the wheels caught, and the car tipped. Yet there was enough momentum to carry the car through a complete one-eighty, the wheels coming down hard. The SUV continued backwards, wheels still trying to spin forward, but not enough to stop the car before it came to a sudden halt in a crunch of metal and shattering of glass. Both Gina and Jes were slammed back hard into their seats, but neither was hurt, the car having lost much speed when Jes floored it at the last few seconds. Gina did not care about the car, she looked frantically out the window for any sign of the girl they had almost run over. "Oh my God," Jes cried. He craned his neck back, scrabbling for the flashlight and shining it shakily towards the back and illuminating the bashed-in tailgate door. "Oh my God!" He scrambled out of the car, Gina following shortly after. With a wild look on his face, Jes ran to the back of the SUV. It had slammed into the stone pillar at the corner of the old graveyard, demolishing much of it, leaving the tailgate of the car in ruins and the fender lying on the ground. "Oh my /GOD!/" Jes shouted. "/Shit!!/ My Dad's fucking gonna kill me!" "Jes!" Gina cried breathlessly. "Jes, did you see her? D-did we hit her? Oh God ..." Jes rounded on her. "What the /FUCK/ are you talking about?!" he screamed, his face livid. "There was a girl running right in front of the car!" "No there wasn't!" Jes yelled. "You stupid bitch! You fucking cunt! Why the fuck did you do that?!" Gina gave him a stricken look. But he had to have seen her! She was right in front of them! She ... At that moment, a sudden, icy blast of wind clutched at her, making her shiver. The next moment, a bloodcurdling, strident scream pierced the darkness, and a naked figure ran by them near the road. "Stephanie!" Gina shrieked. "Who?! Gina, what the ... hey!" Gina had grabbed the flashlight from his hand and went running after the girl. Jes was so surprised that he didn't move for a moment, then took off at a dead run after Gina, seeing her only by the small flashlight. "Stephanie!" Gina shouted, shining the flashlight ahead of her and catching the girl's very pale skin dimly in its impotent beam. The girl ran down the road a short away, then crossed halfway and fell to her knees, still screaming shrilly. Gina caught up with her, panting, only to have the girl throw her head back and screech to the heavens, "/Nooooo!!/" "Stephanie, what is it?!" Gina cried, falling to her knees beside the stricken girl. "What's wrong?!" Behind her, Jes had started to catch up, but when he saw Gina suddenly drop to the ground and begin talking, he skidded to a stop, blinking in confusion. "Make it stop! Make it stop!" "Stop what, Stephanie? What ...?" "They won't touch me!" she shrieked. "They won't touch me! Please, no more! /Nooo mooore!!/" Stephanie rose to her feet, her breathing so ragged she sounded like she was suffocating, her body shaking so badly she could barely stand up straight. When she tried to run off, Gina stood up and grabbed her wrist. The girl turned a tear-stained face towards her, face twisted in horrid torment. "Stephanie!" Gina shouted. "Tell me, please! What's going on?" Jes swallowed, ice creeping up his spine as one question lay heavily on his mind like a lead weight. /Who was Gina talking to?/ "They won't let me go! They won't stop teasing me! And then they won't touch me! /They won't touch me!!/" She tried to run again, and this time Gina had to grab both her wrists to stop her. "What are you talking about?!" Gina cried, her own mounting dread and fright almost as bad as Stephanie's anguish. "No one has you! No one is holding you! Is some chasing you, is that it?" But even as Stephanie shook her head violently and let out another heart-rending cry, Jes spoke behind her. "Oo-kay, this is where I leave now," he said, backing away. "Jes!" Gina cried. Stephanie squirmed one wrist out of her grip. "I need your help! This girl ..." "What girl, Gina?!" Jes shouted. "I only see you there!" Gina stared at him as if he had grown a third eye. "All right, that's it. Gina, I'm sorry, but you find your own way home. You're a fucking loon." "Jes, please, no! I need ...!" But Jes had already climbed into his car and slammed the door. Gina was still shouting at him for help when he gunned the accelerator, pulling away from the pillar in a wrench of metal that left the fender and the remains of the tailgate on the ground. He peeled away in a cloud of dirt and smoke. Stephanie uttered a scream so piercing and shrill that Gina shuddered, her grip on the girl slipping. Still screaming, Stephanie ran for the other side of the road. Gina bolted after her, shining her flashlight beam on her. She pounded across the road, ignoring the pain in her feet as the girl left the road and entered the grasses. Then, just as Gina was about to reach out and grasp the girl's wrist again, Stephanie vanished right before her eyes. Gina stopped. For a few seconds, the girl's last cry echoed eerily into the night sky, and then there was silence. Gina drew a rattling breath. Abject terror rose and clutched at her. Uttering her own scream, she turned and tore away from the grasses as fast as she could go. She ran for Shady Lane, but in her blind terror, she missed it and stumbled into the graveyard. She tried to correct, turning to the right, only to crash headlong into some overgrown brush right at the edge of the cemetery. She tripped on a raised patch of dirt, coming down hard and knocking the wind out of her. The flashlight flew out of her hand and struck the dirt, striking up against something hard before coming to a stop. Gina lay panting for a few moments, her body shaking. She forced herself to her knees and hands and crawled over to where the flashlight lay at the base of a stone. Picking up the flashlight, she checked it for damage, then turned it around, its beam falling upon the headstone of the grave on which she now lay. Gina looked down, and uttered another scream as she beheld the words on the marker: Stephanie Fowler 1969 - 1985 Gina stared at the words, reading them over and over, her eyes wide. "Oh God," she uttered softly. "Oh God oh God oh God ... S-Stephanie ... she's ... sh-she's the girl that was k-killed back in ... in ..." "So you finally figured it out, Gina?" Gina shrieked and whirled around. "S... S-stephanie ...?" Standing there, her body shimmering and translucent, was Stephanie Fowler, a wan smile on her face. "Yes, it's me," she said simply, her voice devoid of any fear or anguish. "Stephanie ..." Gina breathed. "I-I thought ... I thought you were ..." "Real?" she said. "In a way, I was. You saw an echo of me, Gina, an echo across time." "But you knew Victor!" Gina cried. "Yes, I knew him. In 1985." Gina swallowed. Her throat barely worked. Of course it was 1985. It all made sense to her now. Now she understood. Stephanie's smile widened and she nodded. "Yes, you have figured it out. Or at least ... with me, anyway." "What ... wh-what happened to you?" "Gina, you know the answer to that." Yes, she did. But she did not want to acknowledge it. "The Rite of Denial," she said in a shaking voice. "That's right," Stephanie said. "The Rite of Denial." "But why?!" Gina demanded. "It's part of the induction into their cult. They arouse you. They deny you. You accept the cult. They satisfy you." "But ... but you didn't accept it." Stephanie shook her head. "No, I didn't. So they didn't stop. And I died." Gina shivered. "How can someone die from that?" she demanded. "It's ridiculous!" "Gina, there is still much you don't understand," Stephanie said. "Even I don't understand it all. But what I do know is there are forces, energies, magicks, whatever you want to call them, that are very real to those who know where to find them. And Haven is rich with them. And, Gina ... Halloween night is when those forces are the strongest." Gina swallowed. "Stephanie ... th-they have my mother. They're going to do it to her!" Stephanie paused. She looked off towards the road. "Yes, I know," she said quietly. She pointed. "The old church is right across the road and back in the grasses a bit. I saw them take her there a few hours ago." "I have to stop them. I have to ...!" "/No/, Gina." "/But they have my mother!/" Gina shrieked. Stephanie sighed. "Gina ... they already /had/ your mother." Gina stared. "Gina, they only take new members into the cult after their sixteenth birthday, on the night of Halloween. That is the only time they can take a new member. No other time, no other age. Your mother has been in that cult since she was sixteen. Any girl they want who is able to stay out of their reach or delay the start of the Rite until twelve-oh-one on November first is free. She can't be touched." Gina gave Stephanie a stricken look. The spirit stepped towards her and looked her in the eye. "Go /home/, Gina," she said. "Another hour and you'll be safe." Gina's mouth dropped open. "Me? B-but it's you ... no, it's my M-mom ..." She trailed off. Stephanie shook her head. "No, Gina. All this time, it's been about you. It's you they want. They're using your mother to get to you. Go home." Tears brimmed in Gina's eyes. "But my mother will die," she said in a choked voice. "Then you have a decision to make, Gina," Stephanie said with a smile devoid of warmth. "Is you mother's life worth lifelong sexual slavery? Because, if you go to her, they just might stop the Rite on her, and take you into the cult. And then you will both be slaves. If you go home, she will die and you will miss the induction. And then you will both be free." "That's not a choice!" Gina shouted. "Yes, it is." "But ... I don't understand! It isn't! They can just come and take me anyway, no matter what happens to her, or where I run to, or ..." "No, they can't," Stephanie said in a lower voice. "Not if your mother dies." Gina gave the spirit a stricken look. "A sacrifice," Stephanie said. "A sacrifice of love. A mother's love. They can't touch you after that. That's too powerful a magic for them to overcome." Gina wanted to cry, but she felt far too emotionally drained. "I can't let my mother die," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "Then that will be your choice," Stephanie said. Her form began to fade. "Now, I can answer only one more question before I have to go." Gina breathed hard, her heart feeling torn in two. "Stephanie, you didn't accept the cult. How did you manage it?" She paused a moment. "I think ... I'm not sure ... but I think it was because I was still a virgin." Gina gulped hard. "Yes, I believe that's it. I managed to avoid having sex with my boyfriend that night. I think if you don't have sex before the Rite, you don't know what it's like, so the promise of it through your entire life is not strong enough to make you accept slavery in exchange for pleasure." /Oh no,/ Gina thought. /Oh no .../ "I must go," Stephanie said, her ghostly form dissolving. "Make the choice, Gina. But make it soon. Make it very soon ..." She vanished, her last word echoing into the cold night air. Gina emerged from the cemetery, and stood at the crossroad of Old Fairview Drive and Shady Lane, the road back to her house. Back to safety. She shined the flashlight around her. It's glow was starting to fade a bit. She looked for any evidence that she was not alone, that someone ... anyone ... was nearby and could tell her what to do. She didn't want to make any more decisions. Every choice she had made up until now had been wrong. She had let her passions and her foolish fantasies drive her, and this is where it left her, having to decide between two evils. How much of the online story was true? Was the cult as inescapable as the stories said? Was it really that hopeless? Did the slaves really experience such pleasure? And why didn't she see it before this? Why did it take a dead girl from twenty years ago to make her see it? Why did she not piece it all together before this? But most of all, the question that truly broke her heart: Did her mother know this was going to happen to Gina all along, every moment while she was growing up? (You've grown up far too fast) Gina took a deep breath and let it go, a sob escaping her lips. She turned away from the dirt road, and started towards the grasses where she had seen Stephanie disappear. Gina was only mildly surprised to discover that she had chosen the right direction in which to walk on the first shot. She had simply continued along the same line she would have gone had not Stephanie's spirit chosen that moment to disappear. As she passed the exact point where she had vanished, she felt a brief chill, and wondered if perhaps this was where they had found her body twenty years ago. It was not very far past this where her flashlight beam fell upon the broken remnants of a wrought iron fence. Picking her way carefully among the fragments of rusting metal that lay on the ground, she continued past this to a skeletal husk of a building. Very little remained of the structure, framing timbers jutting out at odd angles, scarred by fire and splintered by the elements. Inside the remnants of the walls, the only things that suggested the former purpose of this place were a few remaining, weather-warped pews, and a crumbling altar, and part of a stone wall with a slightly lighter colored patch in the shape a crucifix. Gina started to panic. Where was the ceremony? How could anyone hold a ritual in a mouldering place like this? And if they were, where were they? It was only when Gina came to a stop and remained still that she heard it. A low murmuring sound, soft but urgent, just barely audible. She swung her flashlight towards where she thought it was coming from, which was somewhere far in the back of the former church. She was not even sure she had actually heard it until she crossed the threshold and walked down the center aisle, the sounds growing closer and more distinct. She was about to place a foot on the cold marble of the steps leading up the altar when she stopped, trembling as she realized that the sound she was hearing was chanting. The sounds were nothing she could recognize in terms of language, but this may have been because she was still too far away. But there was no mistaking the lustful cadence to their voices, the tone of wicked anticipation in their refrains. She shivered as she climbed the steps, partially from the ice-cold stone against her feet and partially from what she might find. Louder still the chanting grew as she edged behind the altar, gasped as one foot momentarily touched only air where she expected to find more floor. She stumbled back and pointed the flashlight down. A slab of the marble floor had been lifted away and off to the side. Inside the gap left was a wooden trap-door with a large iron ring attached to one side. From around the edges of the door, she could see dim light, and the chanting thrummed steadily beyond it. Her heart pounding so hard in her chest that it ached, Gina put down the flashlight, grabbed the iron ring, and pulled the door open. Warm air flooded out of the opening, carrying with it aromas that were both sharp and cloying. She blinked at wave of heat that pass over and through her, flickering light making her face look ruddy and her eyes dark. With the door open, the chanting came to her ears more easily, and her spine tingled with an icy fear as she realized that whatever was being spoken, it was in no language that she knew. Below her, a ladder descended a long, stone-walled tunnel, lighted in ghostly luminance by small oil lamps mounted on the walls. Gina was never more frightened in her life than she was at this moment, yet she could not turn away, she could not run. Whatever her fate was, it was down there, where she was sure her mother now lay. There was simply no turning back now. As Gina climbed down the ladder, the chant came louder to hear ears. "/Tre'hass ru'un uxia'yo ron sex'ta'la. Tre'hass par'o soon'la ron Se'xel'ta!/" The syllables meant nothing to her, yet she felt as if they were trying to burrow into her mind, her body tensing and quivering in response. Her breath grew short as the chant repeated, each time waves of heat passing through her body like waves rising off hot sands. By the time she reached the bottom, her legs almost gave out, and she clutched at the ladder for support. "/Tre'hass ru'un uxia'yo ron sex'ta'la. Tre'hass par'o soon'la ron Se'xel'ta!/" Gina swallowed. Her head swam, her eyes threatening to unfocus. As she struggled to get her bearings, shes saw that she was standing at one end of a short passage, and at the other end was an opening with a closed iron gate across it. Inside, light and shadow flickered in a slow and sepulchral dance. "/Tre'hass ru'un uxia'yo ron sex'ta'la. Tre'hass par'o soon'la ron Se'xel'ta!/" And then, just over the chant, she heard a low, desperate moaning noise. Gina drew her breath in, and for a moment, her mind cleared of the miasma that threatened to envelope it. Quickly, she crossed the corridor and peered through the bars with mounting dread and creeping tendrils of fear slithering up her spine. Beyond the gate lay a second church. Built under the ruins of the old, it was fashioned as if in purposeful blasphemy of the one that once resided above it. The doorway at which Gina stood lie at one far, back corner. Across from her, along the opposite wall behind a line of columns, large paintings depicted scenes of intimate sexual union, the partners arranged in a subtle hint of one's dominance over the other, the faces of the other betraying a submission to command as much as a surrender to desire. Cut into the stone columns were small niches where large black candles flickered, casting an ethereal glow upon the center of the room. "/Tre'hass ru'un uxia'yo ron sex'ta'la. Tre'hass par'o soon'la ron Se'xel'ta!/" Gina felt the hairs on the back of her neck rise with the surge in the urgency of the chant. Grouped in the center of the room were figures in black robes, hoods pulled up over their heads. Each lay on one knee, their faces turned away from Gina and towards the front of the room, their arms raised before them as if in hail, their chanting growing steadily louder. Small urns surrounding them issued wisps of burning incense, making the air thick and overpowering. And when Gina stepped to the side so that she could see the front of the room better, she uttered a short gasp despite her attempts to remain quiet. Upon a set of raised, stone steps lay an altar. Several large oil lamps surrounded it, casting it in a brighter light than the rest of the room. The surface of the altar had been covered in thick furs, and upon the furs lay the naked form of Gina's mother. She was stretched out, her arms and legs splayed, held to the corners of the altar by chains attached to thick leather straps about her ankles and her wrists, laying her out in an "X". Every inch of her skin glistened, as if having been oiled. She moaned loudly, her body writhing despite the tightness of her restraints, her hips rising and falling, as if expecting a lover to mount her. And then, suddenly, the chanting stopped. Gina did not dare move, or even breathe. One of the figures broke away from the rest and approached the altar. Roberta's moans were piteous and anguished, as if she were in pain, yet there was not a mark on her body. The figure ascended the steps and came around the other side of the altar. Gina's hand clenched as a fall of honey-brown hair from under the hood revealed the figure as Terri Hollis. Terri held a small flask in her hand, filled with a clear oil. Roberta looked at it and made a heart-rending pleading noise, barely coherent. Coldly regardless of the woman's pleas, Terri held the flask over one of Roberta's breasts. Slowly, a drop of oil oozed from the neck and dripped onto the nipple. Gina's mother let out an even more desperate moan, her body trembling. Her moan became a cry as a drop was placed on her other nipple, both now very hard and erect. Roberta begged again for mercy when Terri then held the flask above her mound, and dribbled the oil over her already swollen clitoris and tender folds. "Uhhhnn!!" Roberta cried, her breathing becoming a hard pant. Terri extended a hand and hovered it a bare inch from Roberta's steaming, moist slot. Roberta strained at the chains, whimpering as she tried to thrust her cunt into the air desperately towards the hand, uttering another cry when she could not reach it. And then a new chant began. "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" "P-please, no!" Roberta cried. Terri flicked her fingers in the air, moving them as if to stroke Roberta's desperately needful pussy, but approaching only a finger's breadth to the swollen flesh, never touching it. "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" Gina gasped, feeling her skin suddenly grow hot, the words boring into her. "Please, mistress!" Roberta wailed. Terri paused, then pulled her hand away. Roberta moaned stridently, her body twisting and undulating on the altar, her breasts bouncing against her chest. "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" Gina was panting softly. Heat flared in her loins. Terri bent over Roberta's body, her face lowering over one of the glistening, round breasts. She hovered over the nipple, pursing her lips as she blew on it lightly, making Roberta shudder violently. Terri extended her tongue, and took a furtive teasing lick at nothing but air a scant quarter inch from the engorged, sensitized nipple. "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" Gina was breathing hard. Her legs felt weak. Her cunt was wet and hungry. Gasping as if for air, she backed away from the doorway, shaking her head, fear overcoming her. She turned to run back towards the ladder ... ... only to see a robed figured descending it. The figure stepped off the ladder, turned, and lowered his hood. "Hello, Gina," said Victor. Gina backed up until she was pressed against the bars of the doorway, her mother's moans becoming increasingly desperate, Terri continuing to tease the woman into further heights of uncontrollably rising arousal. Gina looked back behind her at her mother, shaking hard enough to rattle the bars. "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" "Stop it ..." Gina croaked. "P-please ... stop it ..." Victor smiled. "/Nox'lir sex'ta'la./" he intoned. And to Gina's surprise, the chanting stopped. Gina glanced behind her again. Terri Hollis had stepped back from the altar, remaining still. Her mother continued to writhe and moan upon the altar, her body still inflamed with intense need, but her anguish grew no worse. "There," Victor said softly. "It is stopped for the time being." Gina looked back at Victor, her lower lip trembling. Her hands clutched at the bars behind her. "Y-you ... you were g-going to kill her ..." she stammered, her voice a mix of fear and fury. "There is no need for that now, Gina," Victor said. "Not that you're here." Gina swallowed. "I ... I don't want this," she cried. "I don't want to be here!" "You came here of your own choice, Gina." "/You made me come here!/" Gina screamed, her voice reverberating through the gathering within in the room. "I ... I know the whole story, Victor! I know what you're doing. What you tried to do twenty years ago!" Victor gave her a wan smile. "Ah. So you've 'met' Stephanie, have you?" he said gently. He stepped back from her, as if trying to give her space. He leaned against the ladder and folded his arms. "I should not be surprised. As close as her grave is to the energy lines that run through here. Would it help if I told you I regret her death?" "And if m-my mother died?" Gina said, tears threatening to well up in her eyes. "Would you regret that too?" "Yes." Gina's mouth worked for a few moments, but no sound came out, nonplussed at his response. Behind her, Gina's mother still moaned, rising again, straining harder at her restraints. "The Rite is not completely stopped yet," Victor explained. "She will need to be satisfied for that to happen." "And I know what you want in return for it!" Gina spat. "Do you?" "Stephanie told me. She told me everything. You want ... " She paused. She took a deep breath. A fire burned in her nether regions. Her voice grew a touch husky when she spoke again. "You want me ... as ... as a s-sex slave." One corner of Victor's mouth twitched upwards. "Gina," he said. "Say the last part again." Gina blinked. "What??" "Say the last part again. Humor me for a moment." She hesitated. "You ... you want me as a sex slave," she said. Her eyelids dropped slightly. Her pussy and the nipples of her breasts tingled madly. "Once more." "You want me as a sex slave." Her gaze became sultry. Her mouth dropped open and she drew in her breath as a low, soft gasp of desire. Her legs shook and she staggered to one side, fighting the impulse to finger herself. "Wh-what ... what's wrong with me ...?" she breathed. "Nothing, Gina, nothing at all," Victor said with a smile. "You're ... you're doing something to me!" she cried, her anger rising again and helping fend off her arousal. "You've been doing it to me all along!" "I have done nothing to you this whole time. The only magic there has been was in your costume, and it did nothing more than physically stimulate you." "But ... but when ... when you s-spanked me ..." Gina said, swallowing hard. "I did nothing more than spank you," Victor said. "I don't believe you!" Gina wailed. "Stephanie said ...!" "Stephanie did not tell you the whole story, Gina. Not even most of it. Now, I want you to listen to me. Listen to me if you don't want your mother to continue suffering." Gina cast a stricken look back into the chamber. Despite the fact that they were no longer teasing her, or chanting at her, she was still in agony, tears trickling from her eyes, begging for someone to touch her, to relieve her. "Gina, think for a moment," Victor continued. "Think back to before I arrived. The stories you read." "You wrote them!" Gina said. "Your online name, Xy'til'ev, that's an anagram of 'V. Teylix', isn't it?" Victor chuckled. "Very clever, Gina. Yes, it was me. But I cannot impart magic into mere bits in a computer. The power does not work that way. I simply wrote the words. You read them and your were aroused by them, all on your own." "But ..." Gina said feebly. She could not protest, for he only spoke the truth. "Just like what happened when I disciplined you. You became wet of your own accord. And when I spoke to you of what your first sexual encounter would likely be like, you again grew excited. As you grew excited when you watched me discipline your mother." Gina's eyes widened. "You /knew ...?!/" "Of course I did, because I wanted you to see it. I wanted to make absolutely sure you were appropriate, Gina, that you were perfect. Or did you not stop to think that had I wanted to keep it a secret, that I would have waited until during the day when you were out of the house?" "A-and ... and the meeting at the house ..." Gina said breathlessly. Victor grinned and stepped towards her. "Now that you did on your own, and when I found out from Terri, I was very much amused. You are far more clever than I gave you credit for." "But then you warned me! You told me to stay out of it!" "Another test, Gina. To see how much you wanted it. You're here. You came here despite the warnings, despite what it meant. Because you're so headstrong, you'll need a little training, but regardless you will make a fine addition to the cult." Gina gasped and started to shake her head. Behind her, Roberta started crying in her anguish, now both physical and emotional. As Victor approached her, she cringed, trying to sink into the bars. Victor stopped looked past Gina and sighed, shaking his head sadly. "Roberta is going to need a lot more work to get her back to the good little girl I used to know. You do know by now that Roberta has been ours since she was sixteen?" "Y-you can't tell me she still wants this," Gina said, desperate for anything she could cling to in order to keep her from having to make a decision she did not want to make. "The way she's been defying you." "She made her choice. She is happy to be as she is. Or do you really think she would be simply a mere 'managerial assistant' at the Li'l Missy Inn?" "No!" Gina cried. "Like everyone we induct, she craves sex. And she craves a strong will to guide her. That has not changed. But ... a mother's instinct is very strong. That's something that runs rather deep. When she was allowed to raise a child, she was told that any child she had would likely be a candidate for induction into the cult. She knew and she agreed. Yet when it grew close to the time, she grew evasive and unresponsive. And protective. That's why I had to intervene personally." "D-did ... did you do something to m-my father?" Gina said, her voice quavering. "To make him leave her?" "Your father is a slave as well, Gina. He knew his duty and returned to it after fathering you. That's why you're such a wonderful candidate, why you are the way you are. You're the child of two slaves." Inside the room, her mother uttered a heart-breaking cry. Victor stepped up to her. Gina was panting softly. Her cunt still burned with desire, no matter how vehemently she tried to deny it in her mind. "Listen to me, Gina," Victor said gently, a near fatherly tone of voice. "I was right when I said you were like your mother in so many ways. You're just as highly sexed as she is. You want sex. You enjoy it. I'm offering it. Every day. Even a slave that is being punished, even one that is being a bad little girl or boy experiences at least one orgasm every day." Gina shuddered. She felt her resistance weakening. "Not small ones, Gina," he said in a lusty voice. "Strong ones. Powerful ones. Orgasms that make you feel alive. Pleasure so intense you'll never know any sadness." Gina gritted her teeth. She tried one last time to clutch at her sense of reason, at her desire to remain free, to remain her own person, her own self. It was like trying to hold a soap bubble. "All we ask in return is your loyalty. Your obedience. Your willingness to pleasure us in return. You saw your mother pleasuring us. Did she seem like she was revolted by it?" Gina slowly shook her head. Victor smiled. "You've had sex, Gina, I can see it." Gina blinked. "How can ...?" "You did the research on me yourself. You know how much knowledge I've collected about the sexual act. A young girl that has had sex for the first time has a glow about her that lasts days. So you know exactly what it is like. Unlike Stephanie, you know what true sexual pleasure is, what an all-consuming ecstasy. it can be." "S-stop it ..." she said weakly. "Even now you are aroused. That chant you heard being used in the Rite? It only affects people like you, someone who is very highly sexed to begin with." Gina was breathing hard, her eyes darting from Victor to her mother and back. Her mother was becoming increasingly desperate, babbling promises of pleasure to anyone that would touch her, her mind so soaked with her aching need that she no longer appeared to comprehend that her daughter was still outside contemplating both their fates. Gina looked one last time towards her mother, drawing her breath and letting it go as a soft sob. "Y-you'll let her go?" she asked in a small voice. "You'll ... you'll take her out of the Rite if I agree?" Victor's smile broadened. "You will need to undergo the Rite as well, Gina," he said. "But when the time comes, when the time is right, and we ask of you the Oath, if you join us, you will be satisfied." Gina looked back at him, her dark eyes subdued. "Well?" "I want to ask you one more question," she said. "Why?" "Why? Why what?" "Why all this? Why the cult? Why the ritual?" Victor smiled. "Power." Gina looked blankly at him. "Sexual energy has a magic of its own," Victor explained. "Magic is power. By controlling the sexual act, we control the power. Do you understand?" "Not completely." "You will. Someday. Now, I need you to stand aside a moment." Gina hesitated a moment, then stood off to the side of the gate. Victor flicked a hand at it. There was a click, and the gate creaked open. Gina gave him an astonished look. "Power," he repeated. He gestured. "And, now, Gina ..." Gina took a deep breath and walked into the chamber. Gina could no longer sense the flow of time around her. She could not conceive that her preparations could be completed in the scant time that had been remaining before midnight. Or perhaps they only had to start the ritual before midnight. Or perhaps time simply stood still while fully immersed in the energies he so claimed ran thick in this town of Haven. Every moment of her preparation seemed to her to be part of the Rite, for everything they did to her even before it was her time upon the altar excited her in some way. Gentle hands undid the straps and the fastenings of her costume, slowly slipping her clothes from her body, their hands sliding over her bare skin, making her quiver with anticipation. Before the steps to the altar was a circular depression in the floor. Into this she stepped, and they bathed her with warm water and scented soaps, all the while watching her mother as her ankles were freed by the man that then climbed upon the altar and slid himself into her. Her feverish cries and moans as she was finally sated, her legs willingly parted for him, made Gina remember her own moment of ecstasy with Jes. Then, as her mother's final strident cries of orgasm echoed loudly through the chamber, they began to apply oil to Gina's body. The oil was slick and smooth, and very warm. As it lay against her skin, it created a heat of its own. Her heart started to pound as she felt her body begin to tingle everywhere the oil clung to her, like countless fingers caressing her lightly, everywhere at once. By the time she was glistening from head to toe, she was panting lightly. And now, she was ready. No one led her. No one prompted her. They simply stood away from her as Terri Hollis took her position behind the altar. Victor himself was simply another cultist, having pulled his hood over his head and joined in the preparations, receiving no special place in the ceremony. It was as if she were being given a last chance to turn away. But she knew she could not. She glanced towards another of the gated doorways through which had mother had been taken after her paroxysms had faded, so that the exhausted woman might rest. She swallowed. /I love you, Mom/, Gina thought. /I'm sorry I wasn't stronger./ Without any further hesitation, she climbed up the steps to the altar. Terri stepped forward as she approached, but did nothing to assist Gina as she pulled herself up onto the top of the altar, her heart hammering. The furs were surprisingly plush and soft, and their gentle touch against her skin seemed magnified by the effects of the oil, making her body tremble and her pussy wet and aching. Only once she had positioned herself upon the altar did Terri act. Terri gently pulled Gina's wrists above her head, the touch making Gina's excitement mount. Her arm was drawn straight, leather wrapped about her wrist, a chain being pulled taut. In the silence she could hear her own heart, her own ragged breathing, as her other wrist was secured. Terri moved to the other end of the altar. Already, Gina longed for a touch further up as Terri's fingers pressed into her calves, holding her still while the ankle cuff was secured. Only when the last cuff was circled about her ankle did Gina realize the finality of what was happening, and she twitched, a brief pull at the restraint just as it closed around her. Gina lay as still as she could, the sensual longing in her body as strong as it had been not long ago when Jes began to touch her and she had been moments away from begging him for relief. Gina looked to the side, and her breath caught as Terri carried the flask towards her. Terri looked down at her, a slow, sly smile curling her lips. And then to Gina's surprise, she spoke to Gina in a deeply husky voice. "I have always wanted to do this to you, Gina. Ever since I first saw you. And if you join us tonight ...Victor promised you as /my/ slave." Before Gina could react to this, Terri let a drop of the oil splash against Gina's nipple. The intensity of the sensation was such that Gina could not make a sound except for a single ragged gasp. It was like being brought to the edge of pleasure and then left hanging, yet centered around the erect flesh of her nipple instead of her nether regions. Her nipple throbbed, waves of sensual, erotic feelings washing over her body. Even just the breeze of Terri leaning across her was enough to tease the now hyper-sensitized nipple and send her into a paroxysm of lust. Second later, another drop splashed onto her other nipple. "Uhhhh!!" Gina moaned, panting heavily, straining at her chains. She looked up at Terri with a longing, silently begging her with her eyes for Terri to touch her. Already, having only just started the Rite, Gina would gladly have done anything anyone asked of her at that very moment if it meant Gina could receive just a single touch from her. But as with her mother, Terri did not respond to her plea, and instead held the flask above Gina's helpless pussy. She paused, making Gina squirm madly under her in anticipation of what was going to happen. Then, when the oil did touch her, a thin stream of it dribbling gently over her swelling clitoris, trickling in between her moist labia, oozing into her vagina, Gina let out a cry of anguish. And from the center of the room, the chant rose into the air. "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" Waves of intense, searing desire drowned her senses, her cunt oozing hot, liquid lust, what little sense of reason she still clung to ripped from her mind. "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" Gina writhed and moaned, her body on fire, consumed by an inferno of molten need. "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" Terri lowered her hand and held her fingers over Gina's sopping cunt. "Try to reach it, Gina," Terri whispered wickedly. Gina whimpered and lifted her hips, straining hard against the chains. "A little more, Gina," Terri said, smiling evilly. "You're almost there." "Uhhhnn!!" Gina cried, falling back. "Oh God ..." "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" Terri lowered her face until it was hovering over Gina's boiling pussy. She drew in her breath slowly and deeply. "You smell so wonderful, Gina," she cooed. "I would just love to take a little taste of you." "P-please ..." Gina begged. "P-please ... I ..." "Mmmm." Terri flicked her tongue at the air just above Gina's swollen clitoris. Gina uttered a shrill, desperate cry. As much as her body screamed for relief, it kept growing more and more intense. "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" "P-please touch me!" Gina screamed. "Please! Oh God, please!! I'll do anything you want! I ..." "Close ..." Terri whispered. "Very close ..." And then, Gina finally understood. (when the time is right) (promised you as my slave) "/Ee'na org'as den'xan yuul ron sex'ta'la!/" "I'll be your slave," Gina said huskily, her voice shaky from the intense fire in her loins. "Please. Please let me be your slave. I'll ... I-I'll be your good little girl. Just ... touch me ...Miss Hollis ... Mistress ... /please! PLEASE!!/" /"Nox'lir sex'ta'la!/" rang Victor's voice, and the chant fell silent. Gina was panting so hard that she was seeing stars in front of her eyes. Her whole body trembled, aching with terrible need. With the chant no longer in her ears, the constant, maddening rise ceased, but her already inflamed desire did not abate, and she could not stand to remain in this state much longer. "The Oath," Victor said simply. Gina swallowed as Terri leaned over her. Terri spoke in a low, silky voice. "Gina, will you be silent unless I wish you to speak?" She knew those words! The same words that Victor gave to her mother when he was disciplining her. "Yes," she said quickly. "Gina, will you do as I say?" "Yes!" "Gina, will you learn my desires and satisfy them?" "/Yes!/" "So, Gina," Terri said with a sly smile. "What are you now?" "I'm your slave, Mistress," Gina said huskily. "And what do you want to be?" Gina breathed deeply. "Your good little girl." Terri looked up, a most pleased look on her face. "She is yours, Terri," Victor said. "What do you wish of her now?" Gina bit her lip to suppress a whimper, her pussy aching badly. "I wish her to be satisfied," Terri said. Gina's moans of anguish during the Rite of Denial were nothing compared to the shrill cries of intense pleasure that followed. Terri came to her first. Everything that she had done to her as pantomime she now did for real. They left her wrists chained to the altar, but freed her ankles, letting them part her legs wide. Terri drove Gina wild with furtive flicks of her tongue against her nipples while her finger toyed with her aroused clitoris. Gina moaned more and more loudly as she was driven upwards, her intensely aroused body wanting more, wanting it faster, but her place as a slave, as Terri's good little girl, kept her protests silent. She instead reveled in the attentions she received from her mistress, however slow and deliberate they were. But Terri did not torture her with withheld orgasm. The time for denial was truly over. Terri drove her up, bit by bit, stroking her slot, sucking at her nipples, until Gina was moaning constantly, her body writhing, her hips rising into her hand. At this point, Terri slipped herself between her legs, parting her sweet lips with her fingers, and plunging her tongue into her wet, musky cunt. She lapped at Gina's clitoris until she burst into orgasm, gasping as her pussy throbbed long and hard. Yet as strong as her climax was, she had been driven so far in the Rite that she needed more. Gina felt Victor slide over her, his long, thick cock spearing her still wet pussy and sliding into her, hot and slick. Gina surrendered to him willingly, his initial thrusts slow and gentle, making her pant for more. Again, she did not speak out of turn. She remained true to her Oath, and she let him decide how fast and how much. She again was not disappointed. She rose as he thrusted into her faster and harder, making her cry out over and over as she hovered close, waiting for him, just like it had happened with Jes. Her orgasm was no less intense than her first had been. Several more came to her after that, her moans and her cries continuing to echo through the chamber, her body enjoying a pleasure many times more than anything she had ever experienced before that night. When it was over, when the intense inferno that had been sparked inside her by the Rite was finally quenched, her exhausted body lay limp on the altar. She felt a hand lay gently on her shoulder as her eyes slid closed. "Yes, Gina," Terri said softly. "You'll be quite the good little girl." Gina gave a small, soft moan as she fell into a deep and dreamless sleep. Gina blinked, and awoke to sunshine streaming into her room. She turned over onto her back and stretched, yawning luxuriously, feeling more well-rested than she had in a very long time. She squinted a bit at the light, not having ever experienced it this bright in here before. She rubbed at her eyes, trying to cast the last bits of sleep out of them. What had happened to her last night, she wondered? Had all that been just a wild dream? Had ... Suddenly she remembered why she was so surprised at the light level in here. The forest behind her house always blocked the bulk of the morning sunlight. The Gina turned her head and discovered the further reason for this. She was not in her own room. She sat up quickly in bed, the sheet and blanket falling away from bare breasts. She glanced down at herself and saw that she was naked. Part of her was surprised at this, part of her was not. Puzzled, she climbed out of bed and looked around. It was about the same size as her room, but it was definitely not hers. None of her stuff was here. Her computer was missing, as was her books and her shoes. In fact, while the room was comfortably furnished, it was a bit spartan. The only thing she recognized of hers were her school supplies, piled neatly on a dresser. She started looking for something to wear, and found nothing. All the dresser drawers were empty, as was the closet. There was not even a robe to wear. Gina heard some noise from outside her room, from downstairs, or so she assumed, as she now assumed she was no longer in her own home. Having little choice in the matter, she ventured out of her room nude. Unlike the house she remembered, she had to walk down a short corridor to reach the landing at the top of the stairs, and the bottom of the stairs took her more into the dining room than the living room. "Well, good morning, Gina." Gina uttered a small gasp of surprise and looked towards the living room. Sitting an easy chair that now swung around to face her was Terri Hollis. Terri gave her a sly grin. She had on no more than a robe, but it was unsashed and fell away from her front, revealing her breasts and her bare sex. One of her arms lay draped leisurely over the armrest, and something dangled from her playful fingers. Gina blinked, her mind trying to piece together what was going on. Slowly it was coming back to her. Before she remembered herself, she opened her mouth to speak. "Ah!" Terri said, holding up an admonishing finger. Gina closed her mouth without uttering a sound. "Did I give you permission to speak, Gina?" Terri asked mildly. "No," Gina said. Terri looked at her expectantly. "No, mistress." "Come here, Gina." Gina approached her. Yes, it was all coming back to her now. It had not been a dream. But ... "You have a question?" Terri said. Gina paused as she noticed that the thing dangling from her mistress fingers was a set of leather restraints, very much like what Victor had used on her that time he disciplined her. Beside Terri on the end table was a thick collar and a chain. Gina felt a tingle in her nether regions. "Um ... yes, mistress," Gina said. Terri chuckled. "And ...?" Gina took a deep breath. She wondered if she would punished for asking. She felt excitement at the thought. "Where is my mother, mistress?" "I thought that might be it. Really, Gina, you should never mind about her anymore. She's not your concern." Gina swallowed. "I ... I have to know," she said in a soft voice. "Is she okay?" Terri stood up. She lifted the cuffs and swung them before Gina's face. "Turn around." Gina obeyed without hesitation. Terri jerked Gina's wrists up her back and wrapped the cuffs tightly around them. A few moments later, a strap was threaded through metal loops and knotted tightly, and her wrists were bound. "Your mother is fine," Terri said behind her. "Victor is taking her with him when he leaves town tomorrow." Gina felt something wrench inside her. She felt the ache of loss, and a sense of hopelessness. Yet the next moment, when her mistress slipped the collar around her neck and gave the chain a sharp tug, she breathed heavily with increasing desire. "Turn around," Terri ordered. Gina obeyed, her eyes glistening. Terri smirked. "It's for the best, Gina," she said, sitting back down in the chair. She parted her robe and spread her legs apart, sliding her hips forward. She gave the chain a yank. "Kneel." Gina dropped to her knees. "Remember what Victor told you. That mother-daughter thing. Very powerful stuff. It's better to separate the two of you, so neither of you gets distracted. Do you understand now, Gina? Do you finally understand?" "Yes, mistress, I do," she said with a small wistful sigh. "I understand now." Terri pulled the chain in, forcing Gina to crawl towards her. "Victor has left me in charge of forming a Haven chapter of the cult. Meanwhile, he will arrange a likely explanation for you staying with me. Tomorrow, for all intents and purposes to everyone else, you'll be a normal sixteen year old girl with a bit of family trouble. You get to miss a day of school, Gina." She flashed a shark-like smile. "But that doesn't mean you won't be learning anything today." "Yes, mistress," Gina said in a husky voice, her pussy already growing damp in anticipation of her reward, a reward for being her mistress' good little girl. "Eventually I'll have to teach you sundry things like how to cook some of the meals that I like and such," Terri said. "But today, Gina, you will learn one of the most important things you'll need to know in order to please me, and that's how to eat pussy. So, then ..." She snapped on the chain again and drew her slave closer. " ... as Victor is fond of saying, let's take it from the top."
