Monty Kingsford forced his bleary eyes open, shook his mop of black hair and looked around. There wasn't much to see, just the inside of a cage and the walls beyond.
What in the Hell am I doing in a cage? And where are my clothes and since I'm already caged up, why am I shackled?
He'd been walking home from a late study night at the library. The late December day had started cold and blustery and by evening had turned bitter so he pulled his watch cap farther down over his ears and turned up his collar. He'd just stuffed his hands into the pockets of his puffy coat when a pair of arms pinned his to his sides and a hand had shoved a wet handkerchief under his nose. As he struggled, he was aware of a sweet, cloying odor and then everything went black.
How long had he been unconscious? Long enough for someone to strip off all his clothes and tie him up, obviously, and to take him somewhere and stuff him in a cage. He looked around some more. The warm room appeared to be a basement. The windows next to the ceiling let in enough light to make him think it was morning, maybe even past morning. Oh crap. By now his mother would be frantic. With her husband dead ten years, her only son was the center of her life. He had to get out and away but even if he broke his bonds and somehow opened the cage, getting out through those high windows would be a problem. Besides, the weather was near freezing.
While he stewed and concentrated on his predicament, the door opened and a slim young redhead in a cheerleader's outfit sauntered in, a black leather medical bag in her hand. She shut the door behind her.
"Hi, Monty, been awake long?"
"Lisa? What . . .? Lisa, get me out of here, Mom will be frantic not knowing where I am."
"No and wrong. I'm not about to let you out and your mother is perfectly aware where you are. In fact, she's upstairs having a drink with mine."
Monty's jaw dropped. He tried to start a sentence three times but gave up and just sat there stupefied.
"Monty, my mom and dad like to celebrate each Winter Solstice with an orgy for their closest friends and now that I'm eighteen they decided it would be cute to have me in a sex show to start things off. I said it was only okay if the guy wasn't some doofus who would spread it all over school and your mom suggested you. She thinks it will be good for you."
"My—my mother? Good for me? But with a bunch of people our parents' age watching? I—I could never . . . ."
"Now you're over-thinking again, just like your father always did. Your mom says he'd still be alive if he hadn't stewed and worried himself into hypertensive heart disease and a premature death. She's afraid you're going to be just like him. So we all decided that what you really need to do is learn to be more spontaneous. Now I'm not sure what all of tonight's details are but the end result will be letting you out of this cage so you can throw yourself on me and fuck my brains out. And that means you need to drop a shitload of inhibitions so that's why I'm here."
With a toss of her pony tail and a leer on her freckled face, Lisa opened the black bag and took out a sterile syringe and a small bottle with something indecipherable written on the label. Her tongue tip stuck out in concentration, she moistened a cotton ball with alcohol and reached through the bars to swab Monty's hip. Then she carefully filled the syringe and squeezed out a droplet.
Lisa cocked her head to one side and looked down at her neighbor sternly. "Mister, I've had my eye on you for a while and should I finally decide that being Mrs. Kingsford is what I want, I have no plans for early widowhood. If too much thinking killed your dad then you, sir, are going to learn to let things go and operate by instinct sometimes. Fortunately, modern science has come to the rescue with this bag full of delicious chemicals. They'll make you into one lusty animal in time for the party."
She unlocked the door to the cage and leaned in. "Don't move!" she ordered and jabbed the needle into Monty's butt and squeezed out the contents.
"Ow! What was that?" The injection site burned and the heat started to expand outward from the center.
"I'm not sure of the exact formula but Mom says it's a combination of androgens, male hormones. Testosterone is a major component, of course, but there are some others. Anyway, it will have several effects tonight and for the next few days. It will make you a little more aggressive, hornier and your beard will get thicker. It will grow faster, too, but don't worry about that part. I'll give you a shave before the party starts. I'll leave the bag here and come back a couple of times more to dose you up. Now, I'm going to give you a choice. If you promise to not try and escape, which would mortify your mother, I'll let you out of the bonds. However, you have to be tethered back up again before the show starts and given what Mom said about what I just gave you, I probably ought to do it now."
"I—I guess so. Can I at least be more comfortable? Lying like this is giving me a cramp in the neck."
"Sure. I'll go get some more pillows to put behind your back and head and then I'll spread eagle you. That way when they drop the front of the cage and release you, you can come snarling out at me all rampant and rutting. Gawd, I'm getting excited just thinking about it."
With that said, she left.
Monty had heard the phrase "too much information" before, usually as a joke. Today it wasn't funny. His neighbors threw orgies and his mother attended? The pretty next door cheerleader, who he usually thought of as a pal, had marriage designs on him as and was using tonight to try him out? And all their family friends were going to watch? And he was being charged up to perform—maybe this was some bad dream and he would wake up, but he didn't think it was.
After long minutes of solitary misery, Monty heard the door open and Lisa came back carrying pillows—followed by her mother. Molly Leupold carried a set of keys and while Lisa fluffed up the pillows and placed them around Monty's back and neck she reached through the bars to first unlock the leather cuffs that held him and then to attach them to the upper corners of his confinement. Afterwards she tethered his ankles wide apart leaving him exposed and blushing furiously.
"Oh come now, Monty," she murmured through a grin, "don't act like no woman has ever seen you naked before. Myra Bakewell says me you've gotten into her Darla's pants at least twice. It isn't like you're a virgin or anything like that, any more than Lisa here is." She unlocked the cage front and squatted down to bounce his 'package' gently. "I expect to see this put to good use this evening, don't you Lisa?"
"I thought you said I was going to be blindfolded. How will I be able to see?"
Molly rolled her eyes in exasperation. "Such a literal child! Very well, then, we'll see and you'll feel it put to good use. Is that better? You
are
looking forward to this, of course?"
Lisa pursed her lips and looked thoughtful. "Well, I'd have preferred my first time with him to be a little more private. But if putting on a show to get the rest of you in a rutting mood is what I have to do to try out my proposed fiancé, I can handle it."
"P—proposed fiancé? I'm not ready to get married, yet, and don't I get to date other girls first?"
"Nonsense!" The voice came from the door.
Monty looked up and saw his mother wearing a tight knit cocktail dress with plunging cleavage. She starred down at him.
"While your father and I were very happy together, half the marriages in this country end in divorce due, in my opinion, to bad choices on young peoples' parts. Molly and I know you two far better than you know yourselves and we are quite sure you belong together. So—consider tonight an announcement of your engagement. The sooner you two hitch up the more sex you can start having. I recommend every night."
Molly Leupold held a squeeze bottle to Monty's lips. "This is just water and some nutrients, Monty. We don't want you getting dehydrated while you wait to go on." Then she gave him a couple of big swallows and closed the cage.
The three women turned to go. "Molly and I will be seeing to the canapés and cocktails, dear," Gwendolyn Kingsford advised her son, "but Lisa will be back to dose you up with some more exciting potions as soon as she's all made up—and to give you a shave. Promise mother you won't let her down?"
