The stolen Buick came to a stop outside the cabin and the four bank robbers climbed out and stretched their legs. It had been a long drive out from the city but Nate, the leader and brains of the group, was pretty confident they were safe now. The old cabin was several miles up a trail from the main road, and it was unlikely anybody would come past. If they did, the boys would just have to deal with them.
"Okay let's get inside," Nate said. "Buddy and Luke bring the cash, and Errol--" He gave his grinning brother a dubious look. "Go get the hostage out of the trunk."
He threw the keys at Errol and went to the cabin with the other two. Now Errol smiled broadly as he unlocked the trunk and gazed at the lady bank teller they had taken. Nate had reluctantly allowed Errol to select their hostage because he knew what his unpredictable little brother was like--if he didn't get his way, Errol would silently sulk before exploding without notice. The results could be deadly. Nate didn't share Errol's weird perversions, but he was blood so Nate was prepared to put up with it--to a degree. His only rule here was that Errol didn't kill the hostage.
Errol had somberly promised not to, and then chosen the teller at the end of the counter. She was tall and pale skinned, around forty, but in excellent shape, and she had shaken like a leaf when Errol had pointed his knife at her and forced her to follow them out to the getaway car. After taping her mouth, wrists and ankles, she had been unceremoniously dumped into the trunk where she had remained for the past three hours.
Now she blinked up into the sunlight, and Errol saw that she was covered in sweat.
"Poor dear," he said. "You must be thirsty."
He grabbed her by the wrists and hauled her out of the trunk where she collapsed onto the dry dirt. Errol produced his hunting knife and the woman squealed through her gag.
"Don't worry ma'am," Errol smiled. "I'm not going to hurt you."
Errol cut her ankles free and pulled her upright. He stood back to get a good look at her. Indeed she was a fine looking woman, long legs, an ample ass, and oh yes, a huge rack! She had long black hair and a finely chiseled face, high cheek bones, and dark, oval eyes. Maybe some oriental in the bloodline? He looked at her bound hands and noted the wedding ring on her finger.
Errol fetched his bag from the trunk and then gestured with the knife. "Okay honey. Let's get you inside."
The woman's pretty eyes followed the glinting blade and she walked ahead of him onto the porch. She hesitated at the door, so Errol gave her a little shove.
"Here she is, guys!" he said. "A bit sweaty, and I think she pissed herself, but otherwise in good condition."
He nudged her again and she took a few more hesitant steps into the big living area.
Nate looked up from the kitchenette. "Okay, the refrigerator is working, but we'll need to get some supplies. Errol and Luke, you stay here with the hostage. Buddy will come with me."
In the doorway, Nate hesitated. "Luke, keep an eye on Errol for me--and make sure nothing happens to the hostage."
"Christine," Errol said.
"What?"
"Her badge says her name is Christine."
Errol reached across and pulled on the name tag just above her left breast, and the woman flinched.
"Yeah, whatever," Nate said. "Tie her up so she doesn't get away, and remember--we need her alive. That's why she's called a hostage."
Errol narrowed his eyes. "I already said I won't waste her."
Nate gave his brother a look, and went out front with Buddy. A moment later, they heard the Buick crunching along the trail. Then it was silent. Luke pulled a half pint of bourbon out of his jacket pocket and went into the kitchenette, looking for ice.
Errol stood in front of Christine and looked into her eyes. She was actually about two inches taller than he was, even in her bare feet. Fine woman. Christine didn't want to maintain eye contact and her dark eyes flitted left and right. She was shaking again.
Errol ripped the tape off her mouth and she gasped. Nice full lips. Then he cut the tape around her wrists and waited to see if she would try anything. She just stood in front of him, her legs trembling. Either too smart or too scared to run. Good. He liked them submissive by nature.
"I bet you'd like a drink, wouldn't you?" he said.
Christine hesitated, then nodded.
"Wait here, I'll be right back. Don't do anything silly."
He held up the knife and she stared at the pointed tip.
Errol joined Luke in the kitchenette and filled a dusty china cup from the faucet. The water ran brown first and then clear. Luke had found ice and was pouring bourbon into a glass.
"You want one?"
Errol looked at the bottle and licked his lips. "I shouldn't. Nate doesn't like me to drink alcohol."
Luke shrugged and looked at the woman they had kidnapped. She was standing with her back to them and her whole body was shaking. "Nice ass."
"Yep," Errol smiled. "You want a better look?"
Luke narrowed his eyes. "You heard what Nate said. Don't touch the hostage."
"No," Errol said carefully enunciating his words. "He said don't kill the hostage. I'm just gonna take a peek, okay?"
Luke took a drink and shrugged again. "Just don't hurt her, okay? You know Nate will be pissed if you do."
Errol smiled and returned to the living room with the cup of water. Christine looked at it and gulped involuntarily. Errol held it toward her but when she went to take it, he pulled it away.
"Uh-uh. No hands. Open up."
He held the cup by her mouth. Christine hesitated, and then looking very uncomfortable about it, opened her mouth. Errol looked at her pink tongue and white teeth and then tilted the cup. Christine gulped the water down as he tilted the cup further and the water ran down her chin and onto her dress. She coughed and spluttered and pulled her head away.
Errol looked at the shape of the woman's large breasts under her damp dress. He wondered if they sagged without a bra. He wanted to know what the rest of her body looked like. Luke was watching from the sofa now, and Errol sat down next to him. He watched Christine standing uncertainly before them and then said, "I want you to do me a favor. I want you to take the dress off."
This must have been something Christine had been half expecting because she whimpered, "P-Please don't."
Errol said, "You heard me promise my brother that I wouldn't kill you, right? But he didn't say I can't play with you."
