Continuing the theme of trying something new, this is a completely different idea and approach to that of 'Vegas', but one that has fascinated me for some time. And in writing this, I have taken on board feedback on my first posting, which suggested a tinge of disappointment with the balance between poker and erotica... there is none of the former and the focus in this storyline is most definitely the latter.
And as always, a number of the situations have been inspired by some of the small band of authors whose work I immensely admire, and to whose high standards I aspire. I have attempted to occasionally incorporate a flavour of their imagination in this story, in tribute to them. Without their inspiration, this story would not have been told.
DAY SEVEN: THE PLAN COMES TOGETHER
Raven and her three close conspirators were eating together in the main dining room, discussing the success of their plan to date.
Over the previous forty-eight hours, each of their targets had been brought to the complex and their 'guests' were now safely ensconced in their rooms. The drug they had been administered would ensure that each would remain asleep for some time yet, and that they would wake up in what was now a constant aroused state, their bodies desperate for relief.
Huntergirl had first brought Phenomenon, under the pretence of carrying out a mission together, and then Lucas had enticed Louisa Layne on the pretext that her sex cravings would be satisfied by Wonderman when they arrived. Raven had delivered a powerless StunMan after ravishing him in his own home and Huntergirl had easily enticed Myra Jean by promising the highly aroused young wife that she would shortly be meeting StunMan there. Feline Woman had been delivered by Lucas shortly before Melissa arrived with both BlackCat Girl and Holly, whilst Amazonian Woman completed the arrivals.
It was only six short days ago that they had held a toast in anticipation of the success of their plan, and now all but one of the pieces were in place. The single missing component was Wonderman, who had been involved in his complicated peace mission across the far side of the world for much longer than anyone had anticipated. But despite the frustrating failure to involve him, Raven knew that it would have been too risky and prejudicial to her objectives to allow any of the other Superheroes to remain in their normal environments.
Because of the carefully thought through timings, they had no option other than to continue with the plan and that meant that all Super heroes and heroines, together with Louisa Layne, Myra Jean and Holly, were currently 'guests' in the Raven Towers bedrooms. And that also meant that tonight's arrangements would go ahead as planned.
The first part of those arrangements would again involve Raven and her team, and after that the Super heroes and heroines would be paired with one another. Every single act of sexual gratification and pleasure would be recorded for posterity before release to the world and that, combined with their loss of Super powers, would make her revenge complete.
"This has been our finest achievement," Lucas gloated, raising his glass to the others. "It has all worked so perfectly."
"Except for Wonderman," interrupted Raven.
"Well, perhaps," Lucas conceded. "But how were we to know he would be gone for such a long period?"
"We could not have known," Raven agreed, taking a long drink from her own, sparkling glass. "But it is a piece of unfinished business that we must attend to at the earliest opportunity."
"And we will," murmured Melissa with a dreamy look. "I'd certainly like the opportunity to work on that one."
Lucas and Huntergirl laughed, whereas Raven's face remained passive.
"Please don't underestimate that man," she rasped. "Once tonight is over, and we release the videos of their sexual orgy, Wonderman will come looking for us, bent on revenge. What we have done to his fellow Superheroes will be bad enough, but ensnaring his girlfriend will be the pièce de résistance. Expect all hell to break loose!"
The four of them fell silent. Raven's words were true and perhaps their biggest challenge still lay ahead.
"Perhaps it is too early to release the videos to the world," Melissa suggested, her soulful, black eyes displaying her concern.
"Perhaps," agreed Raven. "But then, even if we withhold the videos for a time, don't forget it will be obvious that the other Super heroes and heroines are missing. And that Louisa Lane will be too. He will be well aware that there has been foul play and will be on his guard more than ever."
The four of them fell silent for a second time. This certainly needed thinking through before they could contemplate success.
"If we do hold back the videos, what then?" Lucas asked.
"From what Venus Flytrap told you," Huntergirl interrupted, looking at Raven with a steely determination in her eyes. "Amazonian Woman could be our biggest weapon in ensnaring him?"
"Perhaps," acknowledged Raven. "Perhaps not."
Huntergirl raised a brown eyebrow.
"You may hold the key," Raven coldly stated, taking another drink.
"Me," the young Superheroine replied, her light brown coloured eyes widening slightly. "How?"
