Chapter Ten - Slave to pleasure
Annie woke up with a cry. Sweat dripped of her forehead and she shivered uncontrollably. She felt worn out and exhausted, as if she had experienced something thrilling, demanding the utmost of her mental and physical capability. A burning sensation crawled all over her skin, leaving her body in a state of sensory overload. All of her erotic spots felt agitated as if she had indulged ceaselessly in carnal desires. Both of her nipples throbbed on top of her quivering breasts while her whole nether region was soaked wet and dripping from a mind-blowing orgasm beyond all description.
Her eyes wide open she vainly tried to penetrate the oppressive darkness surrounding her. Wrought up by her turbulent emotions, her body still in the grip of pervy excitement, she didn't know where she was at all. While her vision adapted to the murky light, the memory of her whereabouts came back as she realized that her predicament hadn't changed much. The stony walls of the cistern surrounded her with oppressive silence, burying her chained and shackled body deep below the terrific fortress. Left utterly alone, it looked like she had been cast away to be forgotten by every human being. The guard woman hadn't turned up once since her wrongful confinement, not giving a fig about her prisoner.
What had happened in the recent hours that had shocked her so badly, she asked herself anxiously? She couldn't recall anything since coming to the cistern and left shackled and all alone in the darkness. All off the previous events from this moment on had faded away completely, left a blind spot that occupied her memory. If she hadn't woke up in a state of absolute mess she would have thought that all that was possible in this forgotten place were some hours of fitful sleep, dozing off out of boredom and loneliness. Considering her conditions and whereabouts something else shouldn't be possible at all, she wondered.
No matter what had happened, there was no obvious evidence of some unusual event in her immediate vicinity. Nobody had set her loose. The heavy manacles enclosing her neck, arms and wrists were securely locked as before, connected to chains that left her no space to move or shift her body much around. Small poodles of water were scattered over the floor, but she didn't mind about them. It was only to be expected, the cistern was a cold and damp place with water dripping down from the ceiling and all along the walls.
If her first night of sleep had caused such dire confusion, what would have happened the next times, she wondered. She feared the bleak atmosphere of this dreaded place, that it would turn her mad.
As the residues of her inner turmoil faded away, Annie focused her attention to her body. As her eyes started to wander over her chest down towards her breasts she wondered what story her private parts would tell. Whatever had caused such an agitation should have some imprints left or marks that could explain what had happened recently.
Upon first sight of her nipples, a bewildered gasp escaped her lips. She had already felt something had tempered with them, but still couldn't conceal her astonishment once she recognized their current state. Hard and erect, they stuck out over her areolas, as if something had caused utmost arousal in them. Engorged like ripe plums, the blood pulsated through them, a thrumming sensation coinciding with her agitated heartbeat. Only their skin looked shriveled, as if an icy hand had fondled them, leaving them as opposed to the rest of her body cool and frigid. She would have loved to touch and rub them, to bring some warmth and soothe the tingling sensation on their skin. An insatiable desire, for they were out of the reach of her chained hands. It was an inconvenience that fuelled her rising frustration about her current predicament. Peeved and upset she pulled at the chains holding her arms, producing a rattling sound, that mocked her inefficacious efforts for releasing them.
Giving up, she continued with her search. Her vision went further down, over her chest towards her stomach and then beyond. Examining her private parts wasn't that easy, shackled and fettered in the current way. The chain running down between her breasts towards her feet obscured her vision and her arms bound behind her back prevented that she could lean her body forward for a better look between her thighs.
Although her nether lips felt puffed up and wet from her juices, she thought there was a recognizable presence of irritation between them as if something put pressure to the flesh around her clitoris. How she desperately wished she had her hands free, to spread them apart, to touch and feel her most intimate spot bit by bit.
Deeply troubled, but still unable to make sense about what had happened to her, she started to fidget around. Lifting her buttocks and spreading her thighs as wide as possible, she bent her upper body forward to get a look at her private parts.
"Damned chains! Why they had to be that short!" she cursed, as the exertion of her contortions made her muscles quiver.
She had to strain her eyes to gain a good look at the spot between her thighs. Annie exhaled sharply as there was really something unusual to behold. A grey and metallic looking cap was visible wedged inside her nether lips, right at the base of her pubic mound. It looked like the topmost part of a sphere which had been stuck deep inside the folds. It had replaced the flesh of her clitoral hood with a metallic cover that enclosed her most sensible spot completely.
A choking bile of disgust and aversion rose up her throat, as she realized a rigid shell had completely taken hold off her clitoris, perfectly fitting and encasing it. She strained all of her muscles in her nether region to get rid of the intruding object between her thighs. After a few tense and straining movements she slumped down, unable to achieve anything to expel the intruder from her pussy. The sphere had locked itself completely around the fleshy knob, an unnatural force holding it immovable in place between her labial lips. Suctioned to her clitoris she would at least need her fingers to pry it out of the folds between her thighs, if this was indeed possible. She feared tearing at this intrusive encasement would painfully bruise her delicate flesh.
During the next few hours she was occupied with the peculiar object locked between her nether lips. Frustration about her restrained conditions, which barred every one of her attempts to get rid of it alternated with frantic movements and contortions of her hip and limps. The whole lot of her efforts left her out of breath and her skin covered with sweat. Exhausted she gave up for the time being. As horrible, as the idea of becoming the unwilling victim of some vile and dark deeds was, the pod wedged in her private parts hadn't give her any cause of trouble so far. Even during her frantic attempts to get rid of it, it had stayed dormant and unreactive. Whatever its purpose was, it hadn't revealed it to her.
"Maybe it was only an ordinary piece of metal, which had come to rest at her intimate spot. A broken bead of jewelry or some long forgotten trash, lost down in this dungeon." she tried to convince herself of its inoffensiveness, "Surely it will fall loose on its own."
She sighed resignedly, unable to provide any reasonable explanation for her present state. The hours dragged on as before, silent and uneventful without anything happening. Her mind drifted along a leaden wariness, unable to stay fully awake or finding sufficient rest in the recurring periods of light sleep. Bangs of hunger snapped her out of her d, but even these troublesome onsets eventually faded away.
When she heard the gurgling sound of water from the passage below, it was like a déjà vu to her. It didn't trouble her badly, as if this event had happened before and lost its scariness. Although she didn't remember much about it, she felt it was something natural. As the water filled the cistern during the next hours, she calmly watched the rippling surface, sending small sparks of light throughout the cavern. Somewhere deep inside her, she knew that it wouldn't harm her, that she had become connected to it, although she didn't know how that had come. Like before, the glistening surface stopped beneath her chin, submerging her whole body under the cool liquid.
