Chapter 1 - Andrew's POV
The room is dark and I can't see. My head is foggy and I can't think straight. It's cold, very cold. I try to recall how I got here but I can't remember. I recall having drinks, laughing, being an ass and then, nothing. I'm lying on the cold hard floor; I think that I'm naked. Where the fuck are my clothes? Where the hell am I? I try to rub my eyes but I realize that my hands are bound and I can't move them. What the fuck is going on? I can hear voices coming from what sounds like upstairs but I can't make out what they are saying. I hear laughter and then I hear nothing at all. My heart races and a sense of foreboding washes over me as I hear the sound of stiletto heels walking across the floor above me. I am genuinely scared for my life!
Have I been kidnapped? Does someone think that I'm worth a ransom? Did I piss off someone at the bar? Is this some sort of gag and any second the boys are going to come out laughing at how drunk I am? Oh my God, where the fuck is my girlfriend Kim? I try to call out to her but I realize that I'm gagged so only a crazy mumbling sound comes out. A thousand thoughts race through my mind at the same time and I pray that she is ok! Seconds feel like minutes, minutes like hours. I sit and wait for what feels like days. I am drunk, very drunk, I pass out.
I wake with a start as someone prods my side with a shoe. I hear no voices, but I feel the presence of someone in the room. I try to call out but all I get is the crazy mumbling again. Instantly my heart rate soars and I start to sweat. I need to stay calm and keep cool but my body betrays me and my basic human survival instincts take over.
She starts circling me, a lion in stilettos, stalking her prey. I hear the clatter of chains. I feel pressure on my ankle as something surrounds it and tightens. The circling begins again. The ritual is repeated for the remaining ankle. I feel the constraints that are binding my wrists loosen and hope builds that I'm being released. My hopes are dashed as I hear a mechanical cranking that sounds like a winch. Slowly, with each crank, the play on my limbs disappears and my fear heightens until I'm spread eagle and can't move a single muscle.
Once again, the sadistic circling ritual begins. I can sense exactly where she is in the room. I smell her faint musky odor that seems vaguely familiar, but I can't place it. I flinch as a hand is placed on my chest and then fingernails are drawn ever so slowly down my torso and stop at my belt line. Then, again, but this time with enough pressure that I cry out, "Fuck that hurt," I think to myself.
I hear a sound that is almost primal coming from her very core; the sound of possession, of power, of authority. Slowly, her hands make their way to my mouth and go to work. I feel the gag loosen as it is removed. I gasp some air and lick my chapped lips. I'm about to cry out when a finger is placed over my lips and I hear a faint "Shhhhhh" emanate from my captor. I think twice and then hold my words as the pressure against my lips increases to stress the point. I feel breathing in my ear as I hear the words "Tonight, I own you!" The blindfold is removed to reveal Kim standing at my side!
I'm startled and somewhat relieved and start to smile at the game that she has started. God, I love this woman! But, my smile quickly vanishes as I look at the steely resolve in her eyes. Tonight, this isn't Kim, I'm not sure who she is but this is not the Kim that I know. Her eyes are dark and forbidding, she wears no smile, her hair is tied tight in a strict bun, she wears a form fitting, black leather outfit that clings to her amazing athletic body, thigh high boots, her breasts are exposed, she carries a long whip in one hand and an unlit cigar in the other. She doesn't speak a word but her intentions are clear.
She circles and starts touching me with her whip, running it's cool, leather surface gently over my body. I get goose bumps. Suddenly, the whip cries out and lands on my chest, literally taking my breath away. She pounces again and again, reigning down her punishment, but doesn't speak a word. I try to be strong but I'm on the verge of tears. She stops and puzzles and then moves out of my periphery. I hear more mechanical sounds as my body starts to move involuntarily leaving me on my knees but face down.
She moves back into my field of vision clearly happy with her decision. Her hands rub my ass, I turn to look at her and catch a wicked smile spreading across her face, the first emotion that I've seen her show. The whip reigns out again landing on my ass, shot after shot. I must be bleeding at this point and I'm not sure how much of this I can take. Then, she gently caresses my wounds with an almost loving, soothing touch.
