The two women before me didn't lick when they were told to. They're screaming their heads off now while they're being whipped.
Not me.
I lick.
My husband and I had just gotten off our flight into the Bahamas. We were going to vacation at a fetish-BDSM themed resort to spice up our marriage. The last thing I remember was leaving the airport in the shuttle.
Next thing I know, I wake up from a dreamless sleep into pitch blackness. I'm naked, on my knees, bent over so that my breasts rest on the floor. My wrists are tightly bound behind me. My arms just above the elbows are restrained as well. My thumbs are locked together. A small chain between my ankles restricts them. My head and face are totally sealed in a leather hood, with only nose-holes for breathing. A short chain attached to my neck keeps me tethered to a bolt-hole on the floor. The only other thing I know is that we're on a ship. I can feel the lurch of being on water.
I'm third in a line of women here. I wonder how many of us there are? Only three? Maybe more? Are we all trussed up identically? A woman with boots on warned us not to scream when our dildo gags were removed from our mouths. We were to be silent, and follow commands, or we'd be punished. The first two women screamed. Who can blame them, right? That's certainly my first instinct. But they're really screaming now. Whip, scream, whip, scream, whip, scream...
So I suppress the urge to scream when my dildo gag is removed. My head is raised as far as the chain allows it. And when I hear the word lick, I start licking. Turns out there's a boot below my face. Leather, from the taste of it. So I've just been licking it. The alternative sounds much worse.
"That's enough."
My head is yanked up off her boot. The chain on my neck goes taut. The dildo gag is shoved back in my mouth, and fastened around my head.
"You get to move on to your training. Don't worry, there will be pain. But..."
Whip! Scream!
"It won't be anything like that."
She lets go of the ring on the back of my hood that's holding me up. My face slumps to the floor. I let it rest there. Holding it up in this position while licking fatigued me. The hood dulls the sound of her heels clacking away from me on the wooden floor. I listen as she repeats the same speech a few feet away. That means there are at least four of us. More heels clacking, more of that speech. Each sounding duller and farther away than the last. I lose count of how many of us must be chained up in here. Some still scream. Some begin to catch on, and lick.
After an interminable amount of time, my head is lifted up by the ring. The chain is unclasped from my neck. Strong hands slowly lift me up onto my feet. Must be two men. I am left there for a few minutes, with one of them holding me steady. The feeling is coming back to my legs. Then something is fastened to my neck. It's pulled. Must be a leash. I struggle to follow without falling down. My ankles are still chained together, and I can only take very short steps. Being blind with the hood, and having my hands and arms restrained behind me does nothing for my balance. But I walk, as best I can.
I have no idea where I'm led. It seems to take forever. We must be turning down corridors. No stairs, so it's on the same floor. I am stopped at some point. Whoever was leading me puts her arms around me, draws me in, holds me from the front. Then I feel the crack of a whip on my naked behind. I flinch into the person holding me, and scream into my gag.
"That's what the whip feels like", I hear her say. It's the same woman who commanded me to lick earlier. She's the one holding me, keeping me from falling as a reaction to the whip strike. Her mouth is right by my ear, even though her voice is muffled through the hood.
"Here it is again."
Another blow from the whip. This one's harder than the first one. Hurts even more. I cry out into my gag again.
