7. Sarah.
I slept in until just after nine and even though I had showered and washed out my mouth, there was the lingering taste of them with me. I sat at my desk in the corner of my bedroom feeling tired, sipping coffee, eating a banana.
My email inbox showed a list of over eighty un-read messages and as I watched, the number of unread messages was going up.
I scanned the list. Apart from the obvious spam emails there were several dozen with the subject 'Welcome to The Code'. Bleary eyed looked at the sender names for each one. Catherine was on the list of senders.
Quickly I clicked the email from her and, feeling somewhat proud, read:
Welcome to The Code. I look forward to using you for my pleasure.
Catherine F.
Feeling a little proud, I closed the email and opened another with the same subject.
Welcome to The Code. I look forward to using you for my pleasure.
Jared K.
Another.
Welcome to The Code. I look forward to using you for my pleasure.
Samuel W.
Each email was exactly the same.
Ah. Standard email, I thought. It would be nice to have seen the video.
"Or would it?" I said frowning to the laptop.
I sipped my coffee and contemplated my feelings about being shown having sex with them. I wondered how far it had gone. Was it when it started? Was it in the cage with the wheel and crop stinging me? That would be embarrassing.
No, I thought. More likely they filmed the sex with Christopher and Catherine.
"What about the bathroom?" I said to the laptop. Remembering how I had knelt on the tiles to let each of them discharge their bladders into me. Catherine had been quite easy to take but Christopher was a deluge and, even though I could accommodate him in my throat, I couldn't help but spill some of his nectar into the cubicle; which they then made me lick clean.
I was getting hard just thinking about it.
Four more emails.
I went for more coffee and a bowl of cereal and came back to my desk.
The email list was growing, all the same subject. I scanned the names.
Then I saw it. Buried in amongst the thirteen was one from Sarah.
'Welcome to The Code.'
My sister.
I scanned the list again, hoping I'd made a mistake, that the subject wasn't the same but there it was.
"Oh fuck." I said to my coffee. "Oh fuck." I said to the laptop.
I clicked on the email and read:
Welcome to The Code. I look forward to using you for my pleasure.
Sarah R.
I read it out loud to myself. "Fuck!"
I stared at the screen. So many names, so many I knew nothing about and one which certainly had my sister's email address.
"How have they done this?" Again, I was talking to the laptop.
An unread email appeared. It was from Catherine.
Welcome messages.
Click.
slave R
You likely have some welcome messages from masters and mistresses of The Code. Make sure you thank them promptly and respectfully.
FYI Code members do not use surnames. You are now slave R.
Catherine F.
"This is some sort of joke." I shook my head at the laptop. "She can't possibly be involved in this."
I opened the email from Sarah once more and re-read it. I examined the email address looking in detail, confirming that it was exactly the same as hers.
"Fuck."
I went back to the list and read all the messages, confirming they were the same. Then came back to Sarah's and read it again.
"This can't be happening." I said to the empty room. My hands shaking. "How the hell...She's a gay doctor for fuck's sake. How the hell..."
I slumped in my chair and gazed at the screen.
In a daze, I re-read Catherine's email.
Make sure you thank them promptly and respectfully.
Promptly. I thought. This is them having fun.
"They know I can't answer Sarah! This is them playing games. But how the hell did they get her email address?"
"Breath Peter," I said. "Deal with this. You're a computer professional." Tapping the desk with fingernails, again I read Catherine's message.
"Ok, lets get replies to the ones I've never heard of." I swung into action.
I opened an editor and typed:
Thank you
I look forward to you using me.
slave R.
Then replaced it with:
Thank you
I look forward to being of service.
slave R.
I underlined
'being of service'
then constructed a mass email to send to all the addresses except for Sarah's.
"Well, if they can spam me, I can spam them." I sighed to the laptop. "More coffee."
Returning to my desk I was about to click on Sarah's email and noticed another from Catherine.
slave R
You must reply to all members.
Catherine F.
"How the fuck are they doing this?" I swore at the laptop. "It's only been five minutes. How the hell do they know what's going on?"
More emails had arrived.
"How many are in The Code?" I asked the laptop as I built another email group to send to.
Eventually, I clicked on Sarah's email and clicked the reply button.
"How to reply, Peter. Think."
I started typing, brain in a fog. Gulping coffee I remembered how we had arranged to spend Christmas, which was fast approaching. Our parents and my brother would go to the beach house up the coast. A yearly event that I always looked forward to.
"Fuck."
It took me the best part of an hour to come up with such a simple message.
Hi Sarah
I was a bit surprised to get an email from you about The Code. I hope this doesn't embarrass you at all and that we can keep it to ourselves, especially at Christmas.
Much love.
