A beam of light falling through a gap in the curtains disturbed further her restless sleep. Jane gingerly opened one eyelid, wincing as the early morning light struck her full in the face. She blinked, closed her eyes again and breathed heavily.
She tried hard to think. She was lying face down on a bed in a hotel room. The bed was familiar. The room was familiar. She was naked. She felt bad. Jane opened both eyes slowly and raised her head from the rumpled, stained sheet. Her mouth was dry – very dry - and there was a vaguely familiar taste in her throat. Jane raised herself on her elbows and felt the churning in her stomach increase. She turned onto her side, and suddenly leapt to her feet, her hands to her mouth as she rushed across the room to the bathroom. Flinging herself onto her knees, she hung her head over the toilet bowl and was violently sick. Her body contorted with powerful spasms as she held onto the rim of the bowl, the smell of vomit in her nose. The spasm passed, came again, and eventually subsided. She held on firmly to the bowl to steady her trembling body, and tried to breathe her way back to sanity.
Her head stopped spinning and at length she managed to flush the toilet, the slight spray of cold water reviving her a little more. Slowly her body came back under her control. She closed the toilet lid and, remaining on her knees, she breathed in deeply again and felt her stomach settle a little more. Nervously raising her head, she stared blindly at the ceiling. What had happened to her? She raised one arm to the sink, and with a hand on the edge of the bath, lifted her body and swung around to sit on the toilet seat.
The pain hit her.
As the cold surface of the seat touched her naked bottom, pain like pins of steel shot through her, a fierce, sharp pain that burned the cheeks and lips between her legs and seared the angry ring of her anus. She cried out loud, tears bursting from her eyes, and stood up, her knees weak. Dizzy, she held onto the sink for support and looked around. With great care she slowly slid her right hand down and between her legs. Her body screamed back at her; the pain intense, a fierce soreness. She couldn’t bear to touch herself more, but had to know the cause of her agony. Reaching into her sponge bag, she withdrew a hand mirror and opening her legs, held it between her thighs.
What she saw amazed her.
Instead of the base of a neatly trimmed triangle of light brown hair, she saw angry, swollen red lips. She saw bare skin where once her pubic hair had curled; she saw streaks of body fluids, some dry, some still wet and sticky and…....‘Oh God, What’s that?’ She stared in disbelief at the single gold ring that now hung from her angry vulva. ‘No!’ she cried, and made a grab at the ring to sweep it away. Pain shot through her like an arrow and she cried out loud. The ring was firmly attached, piercing her skin, just above her swollen and abused clitoris. She tried again to dislodge it, her brain not yet registering the futility of this action, and the pain hit her even more strongly, causing her to gag. Beyond speech and totally confused, Jane burst into uncontrollable sobs, her body convulsing as she dropped to her knees and wept.
But her despair was short-lived. Jane had not risen to where she was through weakness. Turning on the bath taps, she stood unsteadily at first, then with more confidence walked back to the bedroom, her newly discovered soreness forcing her into a strange, cowboy-like gait. She looked around the room for clues to what had happened. Her clothes – the suit and blouse in which she had made last night’s speech – were in a pile on the floor. The bedclothes were swept aside. The remaining, rumpled sheet was creased and stained, she could guess what with, and was that a patch of blood?
Jane did not understand how all this had come about, but she did understand that whatever it was must not be allowed to interfere with this most important day. It was to be her first speech to the Shareholders at the AGM. Women in industry all over the country were looking to her to do things right. There were few women on the boards of large companies – still fewer in male-dominated industries like hers – and this was perhaps the most important day of her professional life. It must not be ruined.
Picking up her clothes she looked at the bedside clock. 6.15 am. There was still time. She turned off the bath taps and called the night porter. ‘Urgent pressing needed – there’s a large tip in it for you’. She put on her bath robe and began to tidy the room. There was a knock on the door. The porter smiled and took the rumpled suit without speaking. ‘I need it in 30 minutes’ she said, pressing a crisp $20 note into his hand.
Closing the door, she returned to the bathroom and let the gown fall to the floor. She looked at herself in the large over-sink mirror. She saw as expected, a slim, attractive woman in her early 40s, dark haired, tanned and usually confident. She turned from left to right. She saw bruises on her upper thighs and buttocks. She saw tooth marks on her breasts. She saw the edge of the angry soreness between her legs and whimpered. Realising she was about to cry again, she shook her head angrily and forced herself to step gingerly into the bath. Warm, deep water wrapped itself around her legs, and she lowered more of herself into it. As it reached her vulva she winced and paused, letting her mind get accustomed to the pain, then lowered herself all the way in.
