I was walking home alone on the 14th of November, the night I was taken. The wind was high, and it carried squalls of rain. I had been at the opening of an art exhibit, which was tedious, but there were a few people that I knew in attendance and there was an open bar. The street was deserted, as you'd expect on a residential street at 1 a.m.
I had no fear of walking alone in my neighbourhood, even at night. The park was on my left hand side, and brownstones crowded the opposite side of the street, their windows mostly dark. As usual, both sides of the street were lined with cars: it was impossible to find parking in the city. I heard a dog bark in the distance, and a gust of wind blew a few dried leaves across my path with the rain, remnants of autumn.
I thought I heard footsteps in the park, but I assumed it was just a tramp, or some desperate teenagers enjoying themselves in the bushes. The trees danced in the wind, their shadows seeming to suggest the forms of evil night creatures in my fanciful, slightly drunk mind. I quickened my pace, my high-heeled boots tapping out a quick rhythm on the damp pavement.
Off to my left a shadow seemed to detach from a tree and become a separate form. Suddenly, before I had time to react, I felt arms wrap around me from behind, pinning my arms to my body and rendering me helpless. My mind went blank: all of my self-defense training seemed to evaporate. I tried to struggle, kicking uselessly, but his grip remained tight.
Pressed up against him, I could tell that he was much larger than me, the back of my head hitting only his chest and shoulder as I tried to fight back with any body part available. I opened my mouth to scream, but as I did so I felt his hand cover my mouth with a damp rag, smothering my voice. I smelled something medicinal and sweet, then my legs seemed to give way under me. My last memory before I felt the darkness envelop me was of being laid in the back of a vehicle, a coarse moving blanket beneath me and a softer blanket being placed over me like a shroud.

My palms were sweaty against the wheel of my SUV as I drove away from the quiet residential street, taking back streets to make sure I wasn't being followed. The girl in the back was my prize, hard won after many weeks of careful observation and waiting for the right moment. I made my way to the highway, making for my place in the country. I had a room prepared for her, all ready for my Princess.
Once, I pulled off the highway and into the deserted parking lot of an industrial complex. I went to the back of the truck and lifted the blanket, checking to make sure that the girl was still under and breathing easily. Her skin was pale as a moonbeam in the dark, and for a moment, I ran my hand tenderly over her hair and face, feeling the incredible softness.
No, not yet,
I told myself, shutting the rear hatch and climbing back into the driver's seat.
I drove the rest of the way carefully, never exceeding the speed limit, being cautious so as not to arouse any suspicion. After an hour's drive, I pulled off the main highway for good, taking turns down increasingly narrow dirt roads. Finally, I pulled into the long, winding drive of my house. Pulling into the garage, I unlocked the side door, then went back to the rear of the truck. Being careful not to grab or pull too hard, I picked up the girl's sleeping form, and slung her over my shoulder.
I carried her up the stairs, all the way up to the attic room I had prepared for her. I had removed the windows and boarded them up on the outside so they blended with the existing siding, then drywalled the inside. The door was fitted with an expensive and complex electronic locking mechanism. There was no means of escape, even if she was conscious. The room was also fitted with a bathroom en suite, a bed, a gas fireplace, and a small table to eat meals at. I laid her on the high four-poster bed and set to work.
She was still deeply sedated, so I had no trouble removing her high boots, jacket, sweater, and skirt. I carefully cut off her bra, panties and stockings with EMS scissors, casting aside the tattered remnants. She still had not stirred. I looked down at my captive, admiring her pale skin in the dim light. Her curves were beautiful and sensual, inviting me to touch; but I had so much time to enjoy her, so there was no point in rushing.
I picked up a piece of rope from the table and bound her hands together behind her back, so that she wouldn't be able to do anything silly if she did wake up before I returned to her. I covered her up with the sheet and then the duvet, making sure she was well protected. I had no wish to harm her or cause her discomfort. I gathered up the clothing and left her alone, fastening the door securely behind me.
