The happy banter and cheerful betting seemed completely incongruous with the events of the day before. Emilia shivered. Sometimes she wondered about the people of Earth. Everyone was nice to her even though they enjoyed watching Ella and Ander's debasement, they seemed to see some difference between her and them and she wasn't sure if it was because she was with Jackson and not Fox or if it was because it was well known that she was an orphan. Not part of the privileged classes that lived on the Lunar Station.They were all derisive of the Lunar Station families, contemptuous even. Ander had garnered some small amount of respect and fascination, although she doubted that he would be overjoyed to hear that, since the reaction was a group desire to see more of his debasement, to try and predict his reactions. She'd seen more than one bet being settled over
Secret passageways?" Ella repeated, her mind whirling around the possibilities.Emilia nodded, nervously glancing over her shoulder at Jackson, standing and talking to a small group of soldiers, a mix of Ciera and Fox's men. The little blonde wasn't a very good actress, she was obviously agitated as she passed the information on to Ella, quickly whispering the way to open the panels as Ella tried to memorize it.As usual, Ander was swimming his laps, frustration and anger written in every line of his body. Ella was pretty sure he was still feeling the effects of Ciera's torment, both physically and mentally. Last night they had slept wrapped around each other, but it seemed like neither of them had known what to say to each other.Carefully committing everything Emilia said to memory, Ella tried to damp down her excitement. This was definitely something Ander would want to know. She knew that he would hope the passageways could find them a way out of the compound. Personally, she wond
That got his attention, even as Ella sucked his earlobe into her mouth and nibbled on it. The suction went straight to his cock, which he pressed harder against her hip, bringing his thigh up more, finding the wet heat between her legs. She gasped and rubbed herself against his leg, as if she was riding his thigh, her fingers tightening around his neck."Tell me."And she did. It was hard to concentrate while they caressed and moved against each other, her whispering words filling his ears even as erotic need filled the rest of his body. Ella was so soft, so willing beneath him... it was an incredible gift that she was so willing, considering their situation, as well as being hot as hell. Not being able to move away from kissing her neck and shoulders, so t
Ella wriggled her way out from underneath Ander's arm. He groaned and made a sleepy, protesting noise, but allowed her to go. Since he'd pretty much exhausted himself in the pool, and then inside of her, she wasn't surprised that he was tired. But she was feeling energized. Strangely hopeful.There were four of the sigils in the room that denoted where a secret passageway was. She doubted that the one next to the main door opened since that would be pointless. But that still left three walls that could contain passageways. The only question was: was anyone watching?Since the night they'd had their sexual exploits while she'd been under the influence of the aphrodisiac spread across a screen for Fox's soldiers' entertainment, she and Ander had been operating under the assumption that someone could be watching at any time. But there had been no indication that anyone had been watching since then. Maybe the cameras had only been activated because they'd wanted to see what Ander would do
Warmth receded as his sheets were yanked back and Ander came slamming back into consciousness with a yell, lashing out and automatically trying to fight as hard hands grasped his wrists. Even though the sleep hadn't cleared from his eyes yet, he managed to land at least one good punch before pain shuddered through his body, fizzing along his nerves and he went crashing back down onto the bed.At least it was a soft landing.He groaned, a strangled sound, which was the only noise his vocal cords seemed capable of while the electricity moved through him.It stopped as suddenly as it had started, leaving him shaking. Dazed, this time he didn't resist as he was dragged from the bed. His feet stumbled on the ground before he found footing, soldiers on either side of him gripping his arms to keep him from falling completely. Their rough grips hurt his sensitive skin, which still felt like it was tingling from the electric shock. Not that he said anything."So who put money on him getting on
Thawck!A second blow across Emilia's bottom had the young blonde shrieking into her gag and Ella wincing in sympathy. She had the urge to speak up, to beg Jackson to stop because Emilia couldn't, but a craven voice in her head whispered to be silent lest his attention turns to her. Right now she was almost forgotten... but she doubted she would remain that way for long if she tried to interfere.Thawck! Thawck!The sound of leather slapping against tender skin made Ella jerk with every blow, just as Emilia did. Ella's hands clenched into fists, almost as if she was physically restraining herself from crying out along with the other woman, her body trembling in reaction to what she was watching.After five hefty smacks against Emilia’s ass, which had to be bright red by now since Jackson didn't seem like he was holding back at all, he stopped. Holding the paddle at his side, he stepped up closer behind Emilia again, winding his hand in her hair, looping it around his fingers under his
When the door finally opened again, Ander was practically bouncing on his feet with anxious energy. He'd tried to sit and read, and that had worked for a while, but it also let him figure out an approximation of how much time was passing. A lot of it. Not knowing what was happening, what Ella had done or what was happening to her.Two soldiers entered and flanked the door as Nurse Mendel walked in. The older woman smirked at him as he automatically tensed, nearly flinching at her appearance. She'd been a lot less rough with him than either Fox or Ciera had been, but he still didn't want her anywhere near him, to be perfectly truthful."Hello again, my little Toy," she said, winking at him.
Blackness gave way slowly to light. Not bright light, at first. Just enough to rouse the senses. Sounds began to trickle in, voices talking. Not softly, but not overly loud either.Ander groaned as he tried to move his limbs. They didn't seem to want to work. The darkness obscuring his vision went away slowly as he blinked. He was disoriented. That much he realized, but he wasn't sure what he should have been expecting. Everything felt confusing.Fuzzy shapes slowly came into focus, soldiers in khaki, activity swirling around a dark-haired man at a desk. A large blonde man stood next to him, a small young woman with matching pale blonde hair and wearing a light blue dress tucked under his arm.And then he remembered.Fox.Jackson.Emilia.Ella.He was supposed to protect Ella and she was... she was... where?Looking around, he couldn't see her and a measure of panic welled up in his chest. Danger... there was danger... she'd had something she'd wanted to tell him and then they'd gone
