From the corridors of Cyberia.
Seven women, seven stories.
Dzjinna.
I met Jenn in a chatroom. She told me she was in her thirties, blond and tall. Of course, many women in chatrooms are blond and tall and in their thirties; some of them are even women. I've always thought, however, that it was beside the point to doubt any information at all in chatrooms. Cyberia has its own reality. That is why you should never meet your chat partner in so called real life, send videos or even get pictures. (By the way, my name is Angique, short for Angélique. I was a girl in her twenties back then, black hair, green eyes and a skin of Gothic paleness. All of it true, of course.)
So, back to Jenn. Inside the 'Net she was real to me. I grew fond of her, calling her Dzjinna. Of course, as you should know, words were the only thing that counted in chatrooms, as words were the only thing we had in there. Words were the paint of the chatrooms; talented people could picture an entire world with them. Jenn was a great painter; I wasn't bad either. Let's say, these stories are our galleries of paintings.

Does she remember? Does she remember what remembering is? Is there, anywhere in her candy cotton mind, even the slightest shred of memory left? Ah yes... at night... or is it night? In her dreams she sees floating memories. Sh sees images, colors, sounds. A blond woman she sees, tall, well dressed. Heels clicking on marble. Mirrors, elevators. High glass walls looking out on sky scraping horizons. Are they her memories or just shapes and colors? Is there even a past, a tomorrow?
It is hard enough to grasp the present; hard enough to handle these feelings and emotions, this constant arousal. Electric currents jab at her, making her skin ripple, her spine arch. There always is the hunger, the need to taste the white slimy cream. To swallow it and paint her face with it. To feel it spurt over her tits and belly. The scent of it, the substance.
Her weak hand claws to reach the edge, the eternal edge, oh god get me there... there. She is a shivering mass of jelly, begging for release. She aches for a volcanic explosion into the eternal bliss of oblivion. But the eyes say no. Noooo, sweet slut, the eyes say, the emerald jewels, guardians of denial. Nooooo...

The huge door creaks open; a black silhouette stands out against the gray, cool afternoon light. Inside the stables warm air curls around the motionless figure that has come in from the cold. Tiny wisps of breath escape the slit in a tight black leather mask. Only red shining lips are visible as they whisper "Dzjinnaaah..."
A shard of gray autumn light spreads as the door opens wider, reaching the iron cage and streaming inside, where it engulfs a milk white, curled up body in the middle of the cage. A naked woman lies in a web of chains that run from iron bracelets to large rings pegged into the gray concrete floor. There's a bowl beside her, empty but for a few crumbs; another bowl has been licked clean. There still is no movement from the tied woman, even when the masked woman's whisper insists...
"Dzjinnaaaahh..."
Is she fast asleep, locked in a dreamless void, exhausted from the horrible ordeals that seem to visit her so relentlessly lately? Is she spent from the strange and alien orgasms that wreck her body, induced by such surprising agents as pain and humiliation? Or is she still in shocked stupor because her proud golden hair has been taken? She has been left here naked and exposed, totally defenseless and open to whomever or whatever fancies her body...and her soul.
"Dzjinnaaaahhh... why don't you give in?"
The leather clad woman takes soundless steps towards the cage. She bends like a cat, her covered eyes hungrily taking in the vulnerable form. She crouches towards the pale fetus in the bluish splash of light.
"Why do you hold back from me what is mine, Dzjinna? I know all about the eager way you masturbate to no avail when I am away. Your fingers pull at your nipples until they stand out aching. You spread your shaven cunt. You hump your swollen clit against your impatient hand. Why, Dzjinna? It's useless. I told you not to. I instructed you not to. I trusted you..."
(October 24th, 07.18 a.m.)
Well-heeled and highly polished patent leather mules disturb the dust and straw on the floor, making them swirl in golden clouds as the black dressed girl slips into the barn. The soft sigh of her silk gown mixes with the click of heels. Until they stop.
The lock's chain rattles; the iron-bar door whines open. The girl in black silk walks to the sobbing woman who's kneeling naked on the floor. She sinks to her heels, her gloved hand cupping the bald skull to turn the face towards her. Long lashes cast their shadow over tearstained cheeks. Softly, a satin thumb wipes away the spilt moisture.
"You'll be punished, my love. Oh certainly, again and again. But not now. Not now. Right now, you must be thirsty... let me get your bowl."
The girl rises holding the empty bowl. She stands immobile for a while more, contemplating the silent form beneath her before turning on her heels and walking to one of the horses' stables. A soft whinnying welcomes her as she opens the half door. She calms the black stallion inside by patting its back, her voice sweet when she talks to him. She holds his face, murmuring into his ear. Then she bends down and reaches under his belly
***
Thanking the horse with a kiss on its soft nose, she takes the bowl back to the chained woman in her cage. The woman rocks slowly on her knees, bald head down, eyes closed, hands into pathetic fists. The black dressed girl crouches beside her, showing her the bowl and its steaming content; the woman doesn't seem to react. A soft hand is propped under her chin to make her watch how the girl pours drops of a bluish liquid from a tiny bottle into the fragrant slime, stirring it with a finger.
"Slake your thirst, sweet Dzjinna. Drink this heavenly broth so it may sooth your parched throat, and your aching soul." She presses the bowl's rim against the girl's closed lips. "You refuse this nectar I give you, love?" The naked woman sulks in silence. She looks down, big tears running down her cheeks.
Then the girl in the evening gown takes a bare nipple between her finger and thumb. She pinches it hard and turns it to the right sharply, making the woman scream. Quickly she pours half of the bowl's content into the open mouth and closes it immediately. Stroking the arched neck, she makes her swallow. A deep and miserable moan rises from the naked woman's throat. It bobs and gulps as the warm cream slides down into her stomach.
The black clad girl almost pushes her face into the woman's, looking hard into the misted eyes of her pupil.
"Say 'thank you, Master'. Say thank you very much to the lovely stallion...Say it now... I want to hear it." But the silence is only broken by a soft, rising sob. A sharp slap sounds as a hand strikes the bald woman's face, leaving a red blotch on a cheek.
"Say it!!"
Almost inaudible and on a breath of sperm the girl mumbles her thanks. Then she slumps back to the dirty floor and once more cries her heart out.
(November 9th, 01.05 a.m.)
A swift shadow weaves in and out of even darker shadows. Like a puff of smoke, it slides out of black corners into even blacker niches until it reaches tall gray doors. They open just a few inches to suck the ghost in, and in the dark canyon between ancient walls the deep silence is undisturbed again, except for the mournful cry of a distant night bird.
