It was not supposed to have turned out the way it did. It was supposed to be a simple trip across the Sahara desert to visit some pyramids. Lorie was an ancient Egyptian history buff and the opportunity to actually visit an ancient pyramid was too good to pass. She was in Cairo on business and was supposed to go back to New York today. But her plane had developed some technical problems and the airline had canceled the flight. The next flight was two days from now, so she thought that she would squeeze in some sight seeing. But what started as a sight seeing trip ended up being the most erotic time Lorie could have ever imagined.
The trip started in the wee hours of the morning. Lorie, being a loner by nature, had decided that she would be going on this expedition alone. It was just going to be her and her pyramids. She had reassured herself that with her map of the area and her GPS equipped jeep there was no chance of getting lost. What she did not know was that the desert has a mind and soul of its own.
Having packed everything that she thought that she would need, Lorie set off for what would turn out to be the strangest trip of her life. With her map and the GPS guiding her, Lorie had no problem in reaching the pyramid site.
She had seen pictures of these pyramids in books and had seen movies and documentaries on them but nothing prepared her for the grandeur of this ancient structure. There was something romantic about the pyramid but at the same time there was also something mystifying and scary, which Lorie could not quite put her finger on.
Lorie parked her jeep, got out and walked around the pyramid, taking photographs of it from every angle. On one corner, there was a rusted old sign put there by the Egyptian Tourist Board that spoke a bit about the history of the site and the pharaoh that was buried inside. The pharaoh was supposed to have had a thousand wives and was eventually murdered by one of his wives because she could not tolerate sharing him with nine hundred and ninety nine other women. But according to the legend, the pharaoh's ghost would come back on every full moon and make love to a young virgin woman.
Reading this made Lorie a bit nervous. Tonight there was going to be a full moon and even though Lorie had had many boy friends, she was still a virgin and was saving herself for that special man that she would marry and spend the rest of her life with.
The pyramid had such an impact on Lorie that she had lost all track of time and suddenly she realized that the sun was starting to set. Quickly gathering all her camera equipment, she started back for her hotel.
Suddenly she realized that her map was missing and the GPS had stopped working. This was serious. She was in the middle of nowhere and had nothing to guide her. All around her was just miles and miles of sand and it was starting to get dark.
Lorie did not want to hang around the pyramid and the text of Tourist Board sign kept running through her mind. She had heard people say that the desert has a soul of its own and it was no different from that of the devil. "I must be going mad." Lorie said to herself, trying to re-assure herself that there was no devil in the desert and soon she would back in her hotel room.
She heard what sounded to her like someone whispering her name from the back seat to her jeep. Startled, Lorie turned around to see whom it was but there was no one there. She told herself that she was hallucinating and turned around and kept on driving. Suddenly there was that voice again.
There was no mistaking it. It was a deep, masculine voice that was saying "Lorie... Lorie...Lorie". Scared out of her wits, Lorie turned around again to see where the voice was coming from and in doing so did not see the huge sand dune coming up ahead and to the right. Lorie was driving too fast to have negotiated around the sand dune safely and her jeep turned over of its side. Lorie was thrown on one side and her head hit the door pillar. The blow to the head had knocked her unconscious. There she was, unconscious, trapped in a jeep turned on its side and some mystical voice calling out "Lorie...Lorie...Lorie"!
The jeep turning over and her hitting her head was all she could remember.
