It has been nearly two weeks since sweet-faced Oliver came to my house. He shocked me with a gift of sexy high heels, and, during his rape, he made it clear that I am to be his "girlfriend". He would be back to rape me again, and I am to have no other men in my life. Did that happen?
Even now it seems like something in a dream, hazy and far away. But there are the shiny black shoes by the door, untouched since I placed them there that night, after he left. I remember he instructed me to have them on before I open the door for him, next time he arrived. The demand makes me feel trapped with the certainty of his return. But I have not seen him, nor has he called. I'm beginning to feel a little more relaxed. Maybe he won't be back.
I've been curious to see if he is even home anymore, but there is something too odd about purposefully visiting my personal rapist. I just can't do it! The idea is ludicrous I tell myself as I drive by on my way to work, my eyes forward, aching to slip off a sidelong glance at his driveway. My cheeks flush as I allow myself a furtive peek. Have his shades been drawn? Are there any noticeable signs of life in the few seconds I glance at the front of his house? It looks still, as if no one is home.
I haven't considered calling the police. I'm still not sure if this is rape. After all, I kept his gift, and I didn't actually say no to him. Too much time has passed now anyway and it's doubtful anyone would believe my story.
Could it be he's been caught for some other rape and he's sitting in jail? I can just see him, caged and frustrated in his cell as I drive down the boulevard. I grip the wheel to keep my hands from shaking and jump, startled as my cellphone rings. I exhale, long and slow, letting my tensed shoulders drop. It's my best friend, Jaqui.
"Hey, Jacks, what's up?" I consciously force a normal, light tone in my voice, cradling the small, slim phone to my ear, smoothly navigating the s-curve onto the freeway.
"Marlaaaaaa! I was getting worried....no one has really heard from you for what? Like, two weeks! Well, except that message you left. Are you still sick? We're getting together tonight and guess who's gonna be there? Daniel!!" She doesn't breathe when she talks, I swear.
Daniel. Daniel will be there. He's the man I met the very evening Oliver came over. I was very interested in seeing him again. He is the sort of man I could see myself with long term. He's smart, funny, charming, and just rough enough around the edges to inspire trust. I felt an instant connection with Daniel the moment we met.
"Where?" Oliver's threats faded and I made my plans.
"It's called My Wife's Place, you know, that new bar and grill near the-"
"Yes, what time?"
"Oh, around seven? Gotta run, glad you're better babydoll, bye." Click. I love the way her office phone ends the call with that old fashioned land-line sound.
What am I going to wear? Something hot, but not too hot. Something modest yet curve-hugging. I swing into my parking spot at work happy and brimming with excitement about the get together tonight. It feels like years since I had a bounce in my step. I know I'm going to be alright. I stride toward the elevators with confidence, flashing a bright good morning smile at everyone passing. I am myself again.
My day passes quickly and I can do no wrong. Its been one of those charmed days where everything goes my way. I've have the golden touch it and it lasts through lunch and my afternoon duties. I have not run a stocking, broken a nail, spilled anything on any part of my snug gray suit. Every file was in it's place today. Clients were pleasant, and the receptionist actually worked! Good grief, could life get any better? I hope that Daniel will be glad to see me.
Even rush hour traffic seemed to part just for me, like paparazzi to a star. I know the dress I'll be wearing. It's been in the back of my mind all day, of course, with my subconscious working it out. The jewelry, the stockings, the thong and bra set, and...the perfect shoes. Oh yes, I'm going to, and why not? They are gorgeous shoes. Sexy, sizzling, alluring. I'd feel guilty had I purchased them myself. They are an indulgence I cannot afford.
I shimmy into my fitted red satin dress with the innocent white piping, straining to zip it up in that hard-to-reach mid back area. Thanks to my yoga classes, I'm just flexible enough to get the job done. A quick transfer of items to a beaded clutch, more lipstick, grab keys, yes. For Pete's sake I'm trembling with excitement! Did I retro to high school?
Okay. Breathe. Steady. Slipping on the shoes. I feel so incredible in them. This will be fine. Don't think about Oliver. I need this night like I needed my perfect day. I feel great. I look stunning in the hallway mirror. I take the plunge outdoors, locking up behind me and tossing my long silky hair over my shoulder as I head to my car. I turn the key in the ignition. My dependable ride hums. So far, so good.
I don't look as I pass his house. Noway. Nothing is stopping me now. The valet takes my key with a smile and nod and I breeze into the bustling restaurant. I feel eyes on me, gliding up and down my tall, elegant form, perhaps sliding from my beautiful face, down the graceful line of my neck to rest discreetly, perhaps not so discreetly, on the velvety valley between my plump breasts. Maybe eyes are lingering at the firm curve of my taut ass, or the delicate shape of my long legs as I pass, led to a table full of laughter and wine and friends.
I nod a greeting all around the table as the host seats me, right between Daniel and Jaqui. I can feel my eyes brimming and I blink back inappropriate tears of relief. I couldn't be happier right now, seated between my best friend, leaning to answer her hug, and the man I hope to be dating. I turn to him and press my hand over his with a quick squeeze and a warm smile. His eyes are the color of the sea and they sparkle with delight at me. Oh good! He is as happy to see me as I am to see him.
There are two other couples here besides Jaqui and her date. Everyone is chatting about the latest buzz in politics, the slew of celebrity deaths, and how delicious the wine Daniel chose is. The food arrives without delay, and more wine is poured. I decide to try a small amount. I don't normally drink but I feel so celebratory. Daniel obliges and as he pours the dark red liquid into my wineglass. I suddenly feel a hot breath on my neck.
My heart drops, I freeze, and time itself stops. I am dizzy as I turn to look and yes, it is Oliver, smiling into my face, with fury hidden there, in his eyes.
"Hello lover, sorry I'm late, and I really can't stay anyway. I was in the area and wanted to pop in to meet everyone anyway." He kissed my neck again and stood up, with his hand clamped tightly over my shoulder. He looked around at the startled faces of the party, and gave them all his most disarming grin.
"Hi folks, I apologize for the interruption, I'm Oliver." Another disarming smile, and a raise of brow as most look surprised at his sudden, unannounced appearance.
"I guess Marla hasn't broken the news yet, ooops." He pretends awkwardness, but I can feel his true nature. He looks down at me, cuing me to step in and smooth things over. My stammering and embarrassment however, are real. A glance tells me that Daniel's eyes are on his plate. I can feel Jaqui staring at me.
"News, Marla?" She puffs a disapproving breath at me and bores a hole with her gaze. I know she's upset at having fixed me up with Daniel to find that I'm already dating someone. I wish I could tell her the truth.
"Well, it's not really news, yet. I mean I..." His grip tightens on my shoulder. I just blurt out an answer.
"Oliver is my neighbor and he........we.....um, we are dating." There. Its out. My heart is racing, though his grip eases up. My eyes fall to my own plate as Oliver leans again to kiss my neck.
"Nice to meet everyone, sort of meet, everyone. But I have to run." He turns to me with a communicative look. I know it's not going to be good later. My company gives smiles and warm, polite words of parting as Oliver steps away, blowing me a kiss.
The rest of dinner is a bit strained with Jaqui and Daniel silent on my flanks. I excuse myself and head to the ladies room. Jaqui is too mad to follow. That's damned angry. As I push into a stall, I am shoved roughly in, catching myself from falling on the back wall, arms outstretched. It's Oliver. His hands grip my breasts as he presses his hard cock against my ass.
"You dirty girl. You want to be treated like a whore, I'll treat You that way." He roughly squeezes my full tits, and jerks my dress up and over my ass. His finger is inside me, raping, merciless, easily tugging orgasms out of me, making me give up my pleasure to him from the depths of my tightness. His voice sounds sinister as he pulls me back against his angry hard-on and pistons my dripping pussy. I fight to stay silent as he humps hard into me, making me stumble like a fresh foal.
"This is mine, Marla. Mine. Mine. Mine. You. Fucking. Whore." He punctuates each calm statement, each raspy whisper, with a vicious, claiming thrust, rewarded with my juices, running down his shaft. A ripe little peach speared, giving up her nectar to the blade.
