This story is entirely a work of fiction and all characters depicted are over the age of 18.
I chose the theme as a complete alternative to my more usual Loving Wives stories and would like to emphasise that I do not condone rape in any shape or form whatsoever.
If stories of non-consensual sex offend you, I suggest you do not continue reading.

Lisa Gerdner looked at herself in the mirror and sighed before running the brush though her long blonde hair for what seemed like the one hundredth time. Pausing from her task, she took a moment to look in the mirror to check her make-up, tonight was important and she wanted look her best for her husband.
Her false eyelashes were nicely coated in mascara while her eye shadow was just the right shade of a light grey. Foundation and lip gloss gave her the look she wanted and, she thought, it suited her pretty 23-year-old face.
At 5' 8" she was a little above average height especially when compared to the local women who tended to be shorter and rounder. Her slender, willowy 34B-23-34 figure was also very much in contrast to the heavier, bustier indigenous female population.
Finally, and probably most obviously, she was a natural blonde as opposed to having the natural dark-hair of the residents of the country.
"Are you ready to go yet? We need to leave in a bit." Her husband Justin called from downstairs.
Going to the bedroom doorway she shouted back, "Nearly done. How long have I got?"
"Fifteen minutes at most. We want to be there before the guest of honour arrives." He yelled up at her.
She went back into the bedroom and smoothed down her new cocktail dress. The cream knee length gown hugged her slim figure, the neckline hinting at, rather than exposing, her cleavage. Beneath it she just a wore matching lacey white bra and thong while her 3" white strappy sandals completed the elegant outfit.
Sitting down at the mirror again, she continued to brush out her hair and reflected on the roller-coaster of the last half-year.

Just six months ago Lisa had been planning a big white wedding with her fiancé Justin. They were in no rush to get married and the big day was more than a year away but there were so many things to put in place and to pay deposits for. The whole affair seemed to take up all of their spare time.
Then without any warning everything had come to a shuddering stop when the company Justin worked for had, literally, stopped trading overnight. The whole workforce, from management to cleaners and catering staff, had lost their jobs and everyone suddenly found themselves unemployed and seeking work.
Given the current downturn in the economy and the fact that several hundreds of people had been abruptly thrust into the local employment market meant that the chances of Justin finding another job, especially locally, were quite remote.
Although Lisa was still working the income from her occupation as a beautician was in no way enough to fund their wedding plans. So, with little hope of Justin finding another post quickly Lisa decided to talk to her fiancé about postponing the wedding, and cancelling all the arrangements they had made so far.
They weren't living together so she had to wait until her fiancé came round to her parent's house that evening to actually broach the subject with him.
Sitting quietly watching nothing in particular on the television Lisa took a deep breath and got up the courage to speak.
"I think we should postpone the wedding." She blurted out without warning.
It was almost with a sense of reprieve that her fiancé responded.
"Really. Thank god for that. I was getting so worried about how we were going to pay for it." he replied.
Lisa breathed a sigh of relief, "You don't mind? I was so worried about mentioning it. Are you sure you're ok about it?"
"Absolutely, I need to find a job first and, who knows, I might even have to move away for a bit." He stated calmly.
With the matter settled they spent the rest of the evening relaxing and discussing more mundane matters, especially how Justin might find another job.
However, over the next couple of months, Lisa's fiancé slowly became more and more despondent. Despite sending off dozens of job applications, many for positions he was over qualified for, he remained unemployed. Apart from the occasional letter informing him he had been unsuccessful he didn't even receive a response to his enquiries most of the time.
It was quite by chance that he saw an advertisement for a role as an engineering consultant for a company based in London. Taking a chance, he decided to apply. It wasn't local but even if it meant moving away it was work and it would mean that the wedding could be rescheduled.
Justin didn't mention the application to his fiancé, he had sent off so many applications previously and saw no point in raising her hopes yet again. He wasn't even expecting a rejection letter, so he was completely astounded when he received an invitation to go down to London and attend a meeting with the head of the engineering department.
He decided to keep the interview a secret, not wanting to get into any unnecessary arguments with his fiancé about moving or working away before he had even got the job. Far better, he thought, to cross that bridge if and when he came to it.
The interview went very well for him but he still kept the application a secret thinking there was no need to create unnecessary problems when he probably wouldn't even get the job. So, when the offer letter came, he knew he was going to have a difficult conversation with Lisa.
"I applied for a consultancy job the other week." Justin told Lisa when he saw her that evening, "They invited me down to London to meet me."
She looked up in surprise, "You didn't tell me you went to the city. Did you hear back from them?"
He nodded and looked almost miserable, "Yeah. They wrote to me the other day. I got the job."
"You did!" Lisa jumped up and hugged her fiancé, "That's brilliant. Tell me all about it?"
Justin looked at the floor, "The... err... the job... it... umm... it isn't... well it isn't here."
"Oh, is it in London or somewhere like that?" she asked.
"Umm... no, not exactly." Justin replied quietly.
Slightly exasperated Lisa looked at him questioningly, "So where is it silly?"
He paused, "It's a two-year contract in... err... in... umm... in Central America."
"WHAT!" Lisa exclaimed loudly, "Two years in where?"
Slowly Justin explained the job to his fiancé; the contract was for 2 years as an engineering consultant working on major infrastructure projects for a small central American republic. He would get a house with the job, along with an excellent salary, where he would live and could take his wife and family but not a girlfriend.
Lisa was totally distraught "But... but you mean that I won't see you for two years?"
"No, I get a return flight home every six months."
