Alicia walked into work and went directly into her boss' office.
"Good morning Alicia!" Mark called out from behind his desk "Welcome back! Did you and Mitch have a good vacation?"
Alicia dropped her purse and lunch bag on the table they used for meetings and turned to face Mark. She had tears in her eyes.
"Alicia? What's wrong? Did something happen? Mitch?"
Mark had gotten up and came around his desk to grab her hands. She was shaking.
"Let's sit down."
"That bad?"
"Yeah. But it's not what you think. It's a long story."
They sat down at the table and Alicia wiped her eyes. Then, she started the story.
"Day before we came back, that would be Friday, we went to visit one last site. It was this beautiful lake. The guide was explaining that it was a very special lake. Before he could explain why, these three young guys came up to our group and grabbed me, pulled me away from the group, took off my panties and threw me in the lake!"
"Did they rape you?"
"No, they just threw me in. But here's the problem. The lake is full of parasites that attack only women. Sure enough as soon as I was in there, I felt something get inside me. It was really weird and I was freaked out. The guide and Mitch pulled me out and took me to the clinic really close to the lake. That's when I found out what this parasite does. It won't kill me unless we try to get it out before it's gone through its life cycle. It will die by itself and I won't have any aftermath or consequences when it's done."
"What does it do in the meantime?"
"That's the problem. It's a sex-craved parasite. It needs semen. In fact, it's like it's addicted to it and that's what will eventually kill it, it will overdose on it and then die and leave me alone. In the meantime, it will want more and more and more and it makes me absolutely, totally crazy horny. And if we don't give it what it wants and needs, it gets aggressive inside and that's when I'm at risk."
"What's the risk?"
"It can kill me."
"What?"
"Doctors at the clinic have been studying this parasite for years. They can't seem to destroy it once it invades a vagina but they have found, through trial and error, what works and what doesn't. They said that I should just get as much sex as this thing wants and let it get to its own end. They said it would only take 5 to 7 days and I'll be free of it."
"So what do you need? You need time off for you and Mitch to take care of this at home? You've got it."
Alicia hesitated. "Well, it's not that simple."
She hesitated a bit more and then said "See the parasite will want more and more. It started with morning and night and then increased to morning, noon and night and soon, it will want more. I'll need sex and semen more frequently until it's like almost non-stop and it overdoses. Poor Mitch won't be able to keep up. We need help."
She paused and then continued "Mitch and I talked about it and figured that with the bunch of young single unattached guys we have down in the shop, we could deal with it here. He's actually talking to them about it right now."
"You want to have sex here?"
Her response was barely a whisper. This was so embarrassing!
"What other choice do I have?"
"Couldn't you use sperm from a sperm bank?"
She had asked that question herself!
"I wish! Doctors at that clinic said that the beast needs me to have sex. They said that it needs the real thing and that it can tell the difference between fresh and bank semen. They showed me their studies and videos of women who had not given the parasites what they need..... Trust me, I don't want to go there. So Mark, we'll be as discreet as possible and use the downstairs washroom. It's only a few days. It should be over by the end of the week."
Mark ran his fingers through his hair and shook his head. Then, he looked around and asked "Am I being punked here or something?"
"No! Mark, this is serious. Here, read these documents that the doctor at the clinic gave us. It's not the best English but it's understandable."
Mark looked at the documents and then asked "If they've known about this parasite lake for ages and know the risks, why haven't they exterminated the lake? Why not fill it with something like concrete and prevent any other woman from going through this?"
"Well, this parasite is too interesting for research for them to exterminate. See, when the women have sex to feed this parasite, they seem to be immune to everything. They don't get pregnant, they don't catch any diseases, nothing. And their immune systems are much better after it's over! So scientists need to study it and figure out if they can use any part of it to help humanity."
"And the three guys who threw you in? What happened to them?"
"They've been arrested and are in a work camp, atoning for their sins. And trust me, that work camp is going to cure them of any thought of doing this again. And that's all we need to know according to the doctors at that clinic."
