Author's Note:
Some have requested that I do a character overview since the cast is getting pretty big. The major players are as a follows:
Ellie Thomas: Freshman and friend to Bethany Eastwood. She was kidnapped by the sisters and her ex-boyfriend Jon last chapter.
Leah Bardot: Patient Zero of the worm infection and the defacto leader of the sisters.
Jon: Ellie's ex and current helper to the sisters.
Emily Bloom and Lindsay Maycomb:
Two girls turned early on in the series. Lindsay has the power to send supercharged arousal through other people and Emily can rewrite others thoughts and nerves.
Megan Jensen: The second girl turned by the worms and the chaos to Leah's order.
Felicia Owens: A former RA who was turned into an Amazonian hive queen by a superworm.
Bethany Eastwood, Jessie Vitelli, and Melissa Takizawa:
Three unturned girls helping to form a resistance against the worms. Jessie is Leah's former roommate and the first to start fighting the sisters. Bethany and Melissa are roommates and come to fight the worms later. Melissa shares a psychic connection with Emily Bloom in secret.
Ellie glanced around the small storage room and felt herself swoon from the unreality of the situation. She was tied up and gagged in a corner with no hope of escape. This was the kind of thing that happened in movies, not real life.
Suddenly, the door opened and in walked Jon. Behind him walked a trio of girls that Ellie didn't recognize. The girls were simply gorgeous, sporting voluptuous curves and pretty faces unmarked by blemishes. As Ellie stared at the girls, she began to burn with jealousy and embarrassment. If this was the type of girl Jon spent his time with, no wonder he had left her. What could she offer by comparison?
One of the girls, a brunette with a pretty, round face pointed at Ellie and turned to Jon.
"So, this is the one?" she asked.
Jon nodded.
The girl shrugged.
"She's cute. I can understand why you chose her."
"So, what now?" Jon asked.
With a smile, the brunette took Jon by the hand and drew him towards Ellie. Just seeing the two make contact like that made Ellie wince. The logical part of her knew Jon was a jerk, that everything Bethany had said was true, but the logical part of her wasn't in control now. Instead, Ellie felt all her fears and worries and insecurities fluttering around her like angry bats.
The pretty brunette knelt beside Ellie on her left. Jon was on her right.
"Take off her gag," the girl instructed Jon.
"What if she screams?"
"Do it."
Jon obeyed, pulling the piece of cloth off Ellie's face. Ellie thought about screaming, just as Jon had warned about. She felt like spitting in the eyes of these people who captured her. What right did they have to humiliate her like this?
Before Ellie could do anything, however, the brunette's face was inches from her own. Ellie watched as the girl's deep brown eyes shifted, taking on a ghastly emerald light that pierced her soul. Suddenly, Ellie's entire body relaxed.
"What?" Was all Ellie could manage to say.
The brunette just smiled, never blinking or averting her gaze. There was something deeply mesmerizing about her green eyes - something that made Ellie lose all her fight.
Then came another in a long series of unfortunate and strange surprises. Before Ellie had a chance to react, the brunette swooped in and kissed her on the lips. She gasped as she felt a sudden, sweet softness on her lips.
She's kissing me! Why is she kissing me?
To Ellie's shock, the kiss was not unpleasant. The brunette's full lips caressed her own with a gentleness that Jon never managed. Before Ellie knew it, the girl was on her. The feeling of her body was strangely exhilarating with its full curves and vital heat. After another few seconds, Ellie closed her eyes and sank into the kiss, allowing herself to feel the little details.
Did she like girls? She liked this, for sure. Never in her life had Ellie questioned her sexuality - not seriously at least. She was always just normal Ellie, straight as an arrow and nothing else.
There was a sweet taste to the brunette's saliva that made Ellie's brain reel. She felt a little like she did when her parents would let her have a glass of wine at family dinners. Her head was spinning a little and she felt so heavy, like she was underwater. Somewhere in the distance, something soft yet firm pressed against Ellie's chest in a peculiar, yet delicious way. Thinking about it for a moment, Ellie reasoned it must be the girl's breasts.
Were breasts something Ellie liked? Her own pair had always been so small and unremarkable. The few times Jon had tried to touch there had been very uncomfortable. He was rough and sloppy, clearly in it for his own pleasure and not for Ellie's.
Now Ellie was feeling the touch of another girl's breasts and liking it a lot. If she hadn't been bound, she might have even reached out and cupped them, just to see what it would be like to hold another girl like that. The thought made her tingle between her legs.
Suddenly, the brunette pulled away, leaving Ellie gasping on the floor in shock.
"What a good choice, Jon," the brunette said. "And the best part is that we get to kill two birds with one stone."
"What do you mean?" Jon answered.
The brunette smiled and turned to the other two girls behind her. It was only now that Ellie truly noticed them. Like the brunette, these two girls were stunning. One was a blonde with shortcut hair and a leather jacket. Like her companions, she was buxom, but also seemed to have an athletic, somewhat muscular build to her. She radiated power.
The other was a redhead and even more beautiful and voluptuous than either the brunette or the blonde. Both girls stared at Ellie with careful hunger and anticipation.
The brunette motioned for the redhead to speak.
The girl spoke in a soft, musical voice that tickled at Ellie's ears. It was mesmerizing to listen to. Ellie knew in the logical, grounded part of her mind that she was in real danger. Whatever was going on with Jon and these girls was no good. Hell, she was bound and, until recently, gagged! If that didn't scream mortal peril, Ellie didn't know what did. Still, the sweet beauty of these girls kept distracting her. It didn't help that her body was burning up after kissing the brunette. It was like a switch had been flipped and now Ellie could not contain the lustful thoughts that were the result.
"This one is friends with one of the girls that's been giving us so much trouble. A portion of their group is on their way to free our little catch right now."
Jon's eyes nearly bugged out of his skull.
"What? Do others know about this? And they're coming here? What if they bring the police?"
The redhead and the brunette giggled to each other.
"Don't worry, they aren't," the redhead said.
