Content Warning:
The following chapter is part of a novel-length murder mystery with graphic violence and gratuitous non-consensual sex. Since I am writing for Literotica, the story contains more sex than mystery. Sensitive readers should look elsewhere for entertainment.
This story took place in 1977. There were no cell phones, no internet and computers were scarce.
Chapter 9: Sacrifice
When I woke up, everything was black, a mask covering my eyes. My mouth was dry and stuffed with a foul-tasting cloth. My head throbbed with a nasty hangover from a bad combination of too much wine and whatever drug Youssef had injected into my butt. My arms and legs were stretched tight away from my naked body, causing my wrists and ankles to burn with pain. I tugged against my restraints, and I heard metal squeaking. I was lying on something hard with a large pillow under my ass forcing my hips up. The only sound I could make was a desperate moan. I panicked when I realized David must have turned me over to Jamel and Youssef for their next victim. I tried to scream. I hyperventilated and passed out.
I faded in and out over the next few hours. My terror increased as the effects of the drug diminished. I felt the room get warmer and warmer. My mouth got even drier as sweat rolled off my naked body. I fell asleep again. It was cooler when I woke. My headache was replaced by excruciating pain in my arms and legs. I needed to pee something wicked. I heard a door being forced open against rusty hinges and the footsteps of a single person approach. They dropped a heavy bag onto the floor. I whimpered in pain as they sat on the bed stretching my bindings.
The cloth tore at my mouth and lips as they dragged it out of my parched mouth. I wanted to scream for help, but my mouth was so dry I was incapable of speech. I felt a bottle press against my lips, and warm water poured into my mouth. I sputtered and gagged as I tried to drink. Most of the water spilled out of my mouth and soaked the sagging bed under my body. I cried when my captor forced the disgusting cloth back into my mouth. I identified the taste of cum on the cloth and gagged.
I was shocked when I heard David's voice. "Millie is moving out today. As soon as my aunt is gone, we can begin the ritual. We'll have at least a week before the wreckers dynamite the building, so I'll be able to complete the ritual the way Jamel and Youssef always wanted. I took good notes while I watched them with Inesa and the women before her. I made sure I wrote down all the details. Unfortunately, they always got interrupted and had to skip several critical steps. I'm going to do it right. I want them to be proud of me. Don't worry; I'll do my best to keep you alive for the whole ritual. I wouldn't want you to miss any of the incisions."
David laughed and said, "It's too bad my dumb cousins got arrested this morning for killing Inesa because I'm sure they would rather be here. Still, that means I get to perform the ritual instead of watching from the corner of the room. I can hardly wait until I get a chance to visit them in Graterford and tell them all about it. I'm going to take my time and make lots of drawings for them. If I do this right, the prophecy will come true, and I won't have to repeat it ever again."
I made a muffled protest.
David patted my cheek and said, "Don't worry Jean, no one will ever suspect I had anything to do with your disappearance. I moved your car back to the university parking lot. When they go looking for you, the police will assume you were abducted from campus. Your body will be pulverized when they blow up the building, so I don't have to worry about the police thinking the box cutter murderer is still free."
I struggled against my bindings and cried into my gag.
David said, "You need to calm down and accept your role in the ritual. You'll just hurt yourself if you struggle. I don't want you to suffer more than necessary."
I whimpered. The mask was wet with my tears.
David said, "While we're waiting for Millie to move out, I'm going to prepare you for the ritual. First, I must shave all that nasty hair around your pussy. It will get in the way when I make the final cut."
I heard David shake a can of shaving cream. The sound of foam spraying was followed by a minty smell. I jerked and cried out when David rubbed the cool foam on my body. I hadn't been shaved since the last time Julie did it. Now, I had stubble covering most of my crotch. I whimpered when he pinched and pulled my labia as he shaved the sensitive skin. After he finished, he wiped me down with a wet cloth. He ran his fingertips over my smooth skin.
David was pleased with himself. "I've never shaved a woman before. It was a bit tricky, but you should be happy I didn't nick you once."
I couldn't escape if he had me tied up; I had to get him to untie me. I whimpered and shook my head from side to side. David pulled out the gag again. I started to speak, but David held a water bottle to my open mouth and poured. I had to swallow to avoid drowning.
Before he could gag me again, I whined, "Please, I'm desperate to pee. I can't hold it any longer. I'll wet the bed if I don't get to a bathroom soon. Your ritual will be a disgusting mess."
"Thanks for reminding me. I have just the thing for you."
David shoved the filthy gag back into my mouth. I hear David unzip something.
Was it his jeans?
A second later I heard plastic tearing.
