Imagine a mental hospital - not the realistic environment, more like what you see in movies like "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest." There was a large room where the inmates could gather. The nurse's station was next to it. There was a wire fence over the window, so the nurse was protected, but could see and hear what went on. Next to her station was a wire gate, locked.
It was night and the lights in the room were all out. A little light came in through the small windows high on the walls. The nurse - young, blond and wearing a short starched uniform - was brand new on the job and had been assigned the night shift. The ward room was filled with female patients, and the nurse sat at her desk filling out reports by the light of a desk lamp.
The place was deathly quiet. Occasionally, she would hear whispering voices and sounds from the room. She knew the room contained a dozen or so patients, all with hard core "addictive" disorders she was told. She had come on after "lights out" and had not yet seen any of them.
As she worked, she began to notice the whispering had stopped, replaced by a low, but steady moaning. She recognized it as one of pleasure, not pain. She glanced out through the wire. The disparity in light made it impossible for her to see into the room. She tried to concentrate on her work and ignore the sounds. If it got worse, she would call security and ask for assistance. She had been instructed not to enter the ward room without an escort. The instructions had offended her. She was well trained. She was a professional, but, she thought, she needed to prove herself to her employers and that was alright.
In the utter silence, her ears could not help but hone in more and more on the sound. It was rhythmic. She could tell by the sounds it was a woman and that her mouth was open at times, the moan was gaspy, and at other times almost a hum. She knew that sound. It was the sound of a woman masturbating. "Well of course they did that, didn't they?" she thought. A mental picture entered her mind of a woman's hand sliding under her hospital gown in the darkness. Instantly, she tried to put it out of her head.
She couldn't. The moaning increased in intensity. She tried to focus on the forms in front of her, but the sound now reverberated in her head. She stood and peered into the darkness. She noticed light coming out of the Treatment Room, but could not see inside. She could see women in cots all lined against the walls. They all seemed still and she couldn't pinpoint the sound. "Maybe she should call security" she thought, "but what would she tell them?" She decided not to.
She went back to her work. The moaning continued and even picked up in intensity. She began to feel it affect her. She thought back to the sight of a woman's one hand caressing her breast, the other stroking her pussy. She imagined the sight of the gown being pushed aside, its tie-strings slipping loose. "Work" she thought, "you're a professional. You can handle this."
She convinced herself to ignore the sound. She went back to her forms. She crossed her legs. She ignored the sensuous feeling of her white stockings sliding by each other as she did so.
The phone startled her. She picked it up, "Third Floor, Nurse Reynolds" she answered.
"Everything okay up there?" the security guard asked.
She hesitated. "Yes, everything's under control," she said wondering if she was lying.
"Okay, well call me if you need me. It's 2:00 o'clock, and we normally settle down about this time. We'll still be down here if you need us, but we don't make any more rounds until in the morning." The tone of his voice and the sound of a TV sports show in the background emphasized security's idea of "settling down."
"Okay, fine. I'll call if I need you," she said as professionally as she could and hung up.
The volume of the phone and the conversation temporarily adjusted her hearing and the moaning seemed to have stopped. "Maybe she's finished," she thought and she smiled.
She went back to her work. Now paying attention to the charts in front of her, she began to notice the background information on one of the charts: "Transfer from Garden State Correctional Facility." She looked at another: "S.C.C.I. Inmate." She flipped back in the chart to find more records. She went through several criminal histories. There were convictions for kidnapping, sodomy, rape. These were bad women, whose mental problems deprived them of their ability to control themselves. She hadn't known that when she took the job. Knowing it now made her feel slightly nervous. She looked at the picture of the inmate in an open file. Her hair was cropped short, military style. Her eyes were dark and penetrating. She glanced at the wire fence and wondered if it was enough to protect her. She reminded herself she was a professional.
Going back to her work, she heard it again, the moaning. No, this time it was slightly different. Another inmate? Again, she tried to put it out of her mind. The moans became more intense. Was this one closer to the window? She looked in again. She walked around to the gate and stared into the darkness. No movement. She sat back down.
The sound was continuous now. It filled her mind. She thought of an inmate stroking herself again, bunching her gown up between her legs and humping herself with it. Again, she crossed her legs. She wondered, without realizing it, what these women must think about while they masturbated. She imagined scenes involving blindfolds and leather and helpless, bound women. Her high heeled foot began to move back and forth slowly. The moaning had a hungry sound that captivated her. Her hand unconsciously moved down and brushed her uniform just over the lace of her stocking.
The thought of being that close to danger did excite her. Her mind drifted back to the images. The victim, bound and blindfolded, being forced to submit to the desires of her kidnapper. She closed her eyes and thought of it, played it out in her mind - the struggling, the vulnerability. Allowing herself, she saw herself as the victim, saw her uniform ripped open in front, her arms tied to the arms of her chair. She rubbed her thighs together and enjoyed the feeling. The sound of moaning seemed to react to her fantasy. She dismissed it as coincidence. She twirled a pencil in her hands. She imagined the woman inmate whose picture she had seen dressed in dark leather standing in front of her, unzip a vest and push a tit toward her mouth. She raised the pencil slowly and slid the eraser over her lips. She saw the face of the inmate. The moaning became even more urgent. She could hear only it, and the sound of her stockings rubbing together. The intensity of her own fantasy surprised her.
Her eyes closed, she moved her hand even lower under the desk. Even with her training, she couldn't deny the pleasure the sounds brought her. She also began to hear a faint cry of "noooo, noooo" mixed in with the moans. It played right into her fantasy. She "saw" the inmate unfasten black leather pants, grab the victim by the hair and pull her mouth toward her pussy. "Nooo. Nooo!" The urgency of the voice brought her back to reality. One of her patients might be in trouble and she was after all responsible.
Again, she stood and looked in. She strained her ears for any sound of distress. She heard only a faint whisper. "Maybe they were just talking" she thought. After all, she liked to speak out loud when she was alone in bed and enjoying her own body. These women would be no different, and, given their backgrounds, their fantasies might involve some protesting. She didn't want to appear frightened and decided against calling security. She settled back down in her chair.
Soon the familiar sound returned. She tried to concentrate, but she found her mind drifting constantly into the pleasure she was hearing. Then she heard another voice, faint at first, but unmistakably engaged in the same act. It made sense, didn't it? If it had an effect on her, a normal woman with normal self-control, wouldn't the sound of one stimulate another. Now slightly aroused, she couldn't distract herself from the sounds. Another voice joined in. She began to imagine them all lying in their beds rubbing themselves, squeezing their breasts to simulate the style of sex they all enjoyed. They were after all criminals, women who took what they wanted from other weaker women, who made their victims do unspeakable things, terrible things, lecherous things.
She closed her eyes again. The sounds took her back to her fantasy. She was there in her chair, her face being forced between a woman's legs. She imagined the feel of leather pants straddling her cheeks. She imagined how she would struggle, how she wouldn't cooperate. Her hand slipped under the desk again to the slit in her uniform just below the last button. She felt the silkiness of her stockings and thought of how sexy she looked in her white merriwidow, how it made her look innocent, even Victorian. She was barely conscious of her fingers unbuttoning the bottom button. The moaning was all so rhythmic now. They had infected each other with their pleasure, and all of them seemed to be doing it to themselves. It was "professional" for her to ignore it, wasn't it? Her fingers slid over her thigh. It was under the desk. No one could see. No one was there. No one would know, would they? And that moaning. It was driving her to it. No one could just ignore it, could they?
Her legs were crossed and she slid the top one up slightly, just enough to slide her fingers down the side of her thigh. She sat posed with the pencil. If someone saw her, they'd just think she was working? Those moans. She slid her hand deep up against her pussy. She felt its wetness. She began to move slowly and steadily in her seat, pressing her pussy against her fingers. Her foot was pumping back and forth under the desk now. She stifled all the sounds she wanted to make. "Oh, I shouldn't," she thought, but she knew it was too late.
She was breathing heavily now. She tried to maintain her posture, to maintain the illusion she was working, but . . . it . . . felt . . . so good. Women in the ward were moaning loudly now, all of them. She heard some of them saying "yesssss, yesssss."
They couldn't know how they were encouraging her, could they? "No," she though, "to them I'm just working and ignoring them."
She heard one voice, caught in a fantasy, say icily "yeah, that's right, bitch, lick it. Lick my pussy." The image caused her to slump back in her seat. The pencil rolled out of her hand as she gave in more to the pleasure.
"No one is watching me" she convinced herself. "No one will know." Her free hand came up slowly to her breast. She caressed the underside of it, and thought back to her kidnapper.
