Instructing Youth
Hey girl. Got your note. I just thought I
would send you a few thoughts on what I thought a Babylon fan club should
look like. First and most important, it must not be a chapter of the Sisterhood.
Any links have got to be deniable. The Babylon club has no idea how to
get in touch with the real Sisterhood, never knew such a thing existed,
doubts that it possibly could, etc. etc. That's for anybody over 18 who
asks, female or male. We have to watch for heat from the first minute.
Sex partners are a different story. It's
weird. The narks might blow dope in order to bust somebody, but one thing
the cops will never do is sleep with jailbait! So if they're willing to
go to bed with you, they're probably cool. Make sure everybody knows you
make videos of everything (if you do or not). That will scare off the spooks
quicker than anything else, the thought of being in a video with naked
minors. Every Babylon club needs to have 2 or 3 secure channels to get
in touch with the Temple. Secure means an initiate, whether Sister or Communicant,
somewhere in the line. Temple communications are secure, but you can never
tell about the public nets unless you use encryption. There are public
domain encryption prgs the Feds can't break. The ideal is for the contact
to actually be an underground Initiate.
who doesn't want to run away is very tricky.
That's what the Babylon clubs are for, to find out what kids the Sisterhood
can trust. The Sisters don't need a kid who will break down and start busting
everybody she ever heard of. We don't want to initiate anybody who will
do that. So the Babylon clubs are for kids to get together and give each
other a little Sister-type sex. Unofficially of course. Officially it's
just a literary appreciation club, with funny costumes etc. So when the
club contact slips us the word at the Temple and says look, there's this
little chick who says she's ready to be initiated, we already know she
can take a little taste of the lash and the thought of anal sex doesn't
scare her shitless, and now she wants to proceed a little deeper in her
religious studies etc. maybe a Communicant will show up and say hey little
girl etc.
What we like to see best is a kid who says
this religion is real neat and I want to live like that, enough to leave
this hometown shit behind and go see about it. When a kid says that we
want to know about it right away, that's a radical thing to say. We don't
want her out hitchhiking on the highway trying to find us. We're not too
easy to find like that & we don't have any way to know about her. Just
about any type who will say they want to stay with us is a type we can
find a way to handle. Just no fats, no stupids. Also we're not real thrilled
about girls who are alcoholics or real junkie-type addicts, its not our
line of work to help fools. Just sometimes maybe if they're either intellectuals
or super fucking machines or Bth. Real sex appeal can make us overlook
other flaws. Pretty helps of course. You get the idea. When somebody like
this says they want to come see us, ask if they want to get checked out
with the ritual objects, but if they say no let us know anyway. They might
not think the Babylon fan club is their cup of tea no offense. We will
arrange transport for them & we take care of our own security.
But we were talking about kids who want to
stay home. We can sometimes initiate some people like that but not everybody
so don't count on it too much. Some girls just want the thrill of getting
initiated so they can whisper about it to their girlfriends & never
want to hear any more from the Sisterhood, but they can brag oh yes they're
a member. Well fuck that, we risk our fucking necks for them to bring them
our religion & then they want to ditch us. We don't want them. We want
to find girls who will give up a little time now and then for the Goddess.
We want them to put their ass on the line sometimes & I mean that literally.
This religion is about sex, and that means somebody has to get fucked.
If somebody wants to be our Sister & still live at home she has to
be willing to put out when the Sisterhood says to. Then it will be up to
her to make her own excuses around the house like Mom I don't want to talk
about it.
I don't mean every time & I don't mean
all the time but the point is sometimes you have to be willing to deliver
or else you're not our Sister. If you won't take risks after your initiation
don't ask us to risk initiating you. That's all I have to say on that.
ABut Bys --- you might get some Bys who
want to hold the whip hand in your club. Kick them out. We don't want them,
we don't want to see them, we don't want to hear from them ever. People
are never never going to believe this, but there is no room in the Sisterhood
for even one sadist, and there should be no room in the Babylon clubs for
them either. Our religion is basically about and for women. A male who
wants to dominate and/or hurt women just is not on our side, if you get
my drift. We might take their money if they want to pay us for a little
of our time, but we won't talk religion with them and we won't let them
pretend they're any part of our religion. So when Bys ask you how you
can have a club of masochists and not have any sadists, just tell them
eat shit, that's our fucking business because it's none of yours.
ABut Bys --- you might get some Bys who
have heard about the Communicants and want to know more about our religion.
The first thing they ought to know is that the initiation is identical
to the initiation into the Sisterhood, that should give them a hint. They
do get to have sex with the Sisters all the time & they hold the whip
hand but that doesn't mean they try to dominate the Sisters or Bss them
around but just in bed. But they have to be sensitive & caring men
who know just what it feels like & believe me they learn just what
it feels like and then some. They don't have to be faggots but they do
have to be bi & they are able to switch at the snap of your finger.
They don't get off on hurting girls but they are doing their religious
duty and they enjoy their religion, if that makes sense. They have a lot
of special, rare qualities, mostly love. There aren't too many of them,
but it just takes a few to keep a lot of Sisters happy, ha ha.
You have to be real lucky if you want to
find a good Communicant. The important thing is all the Sisters have to
really love them & I mean exactly that. You don't let some faggot with
a whip tie you up if you can't stand him because maybe he knows that &
you Bth just have a miserable time but you more than him! But if you find
a good Communicant for your club & he's underage maybe you just better
keep him to yourself because we might snatch him up & you would have
to look again! Seriously I guess what you need to look for is somebody
you could dump pretty easy if you all get tired of him. Your club has to
be run by all females or it just won't work. So don't bring in any male
who's the least bit Bssy or you'll be very sorry. If I were you I would
use only guys who have been through it all themselves, and I mean all of
it, before he gets to tie up a girl in your club. I'm serious as a heart
attack.
That's just for your regular meetings, you
should have one guy, or more than one, for a regular. Then you can have
a couple more waiting in the wings. You can also entertain carefully selected
guests sometimes. It shouldn't be hard to turn that into a fund-raising
event, if you know what I mean. If you want to get a little wild, and I
think you do, you can throw a party, with the girls in your club providing
the entertainment at the party, etc.
That's about it. When you get your club organized,
send me a note and I'll upload a crypto program so you can be our first
contact at the club. Don't forget you never heard of us, and you're pretty
sure we don't exist.

Recruit
"Hey, where's all the dudes?" She
was a little one, redhead, her complexion such a delicately-poised white
that it looked like a sour smell might change the color of her flesh. "All
I see is chicks here. Is this like a convent or something?"
"This is your home for right now, and
you own it about as much as any of us do. You can paint your name on the
walls, or make a tent out of your sheets if you feel like it. This is a
retreat for our Order. If you think we're nuns you're pretty dumb. Who
are you?"
Pretty. Pubescent, skin stretched tight.
Slight build. Coming on, this one. In four moons she would be ripe as a
persimmon. Ready now. "Just Rachel."
"OK, Rachel, I'm Lucretia. Come see
your room and you can change into your candidate's gown. Your color will
be rose." I saw her grimace. She thought she would look dreadful in
rose. Little she knew.
"Do I have to wear it?"
"You don't have to do anything around
here. You came here because you said you might want to join our Sisterhood,
and somebody sponsored you. To be initiated you have to wear the right
things in the right order, or it won't happen."
"They told me I could leave here whenever
I wanted, but the Jeep's already gone." Her eyebrows made neat little
crinkles when she expressed 'quizzical'. There was little hair to them.
Her left eyebrow had a little gold ring through it at the outer corner;
a matching ring could be seen in her left nostril.
"Don't worry. If you decide you don't
want to join, we'll get you back, or whatever. Let's go. By the way, we
do get dudes up here on the weekend, to help pay the notes, and there's
a couple men who stay here. If you join up you'll have enough men hanging
around your whole life when you need one."
"This is awesome, right? I mean these
mountains and everything." We were walking slowly up to the cabins.
The brisk springtime breeze cut straight through my chiffon, and chilled
the brass slave collar on my neck. With her loose jeans and loose sweater,
she seemed to be better dressed for the weather than I, but we would soon
fix that.
"Yeah, I like it here," I shivered.
"It's quiet. Feels better in the summertime, though." I reminded
myself that the Goddess had sent me the pang of my chill for my extra delight.
I aimed my nipples proudly at the breeze and deliberately strode with a
slow step. Yes, the rapid flipping of the light material against my tightened
skin was a positive experience. This delicious jailbait beside me was pleasant
company. Cold was fine. Walking was fine.
I unlocked her door and handed her the key.
"Here's your room. Nice and warm in here, isn't it? We can light a
fire if you like, to make it cozier."
"Wow, big bathroom. Look at that tub,
you could get three people in there! Cool. Hang on a minute." Without
self- consciousness, she tugged her jeans down her thighs and squatted
on the commode. Looked like good stuff to me, oh yes indeed. Her tiny patch
of pubic hair looked as filmy as her eyebrows. The sound of her squirting
reminded me.
"I'll draw your bath water." Really,
really warm, not to scald the child, but to soak all the tensions out of
her. She stripped quickly, but with a definite natural grace. I slopped
scent, bubbles and a skin moisturizer into her bath water. She watched
my eyes while I scanned her nakedness.
"Are you a Lesbian?"
I chuckled. "Come here, kid."
With no hesitation she stepped into my extended
arms for a hug. I answered the side of her head. "Sometimes, girl.
Right now more than usual, because you really are so darn beautiful. But
all lust honors the Goddess, am I right? That's why you're here. Your sponsor
said you were a horny virgin with a sharp mind. If you want to keep that
cherry, you're in the wrong place. Get in the tub."
She gave me a shy grin when I tweaked her
cherry blossom. Finding the water too steamy, she let it simmer her flesh
an inch at a time as she sat gradually into the tub. The sight was just
too hard on the eyeballs. I turned away with a sigh.
"So are you a whore?"
"Yep. Love my work, 'cause love is my
work."
"Are you all whores? When I get initiated,
will I be a whore?"
"ABut half the women here work in the
sex industry when they're at home. If you join our Sisterhood, you'll be
about fifty percent whore."
She snickered at my riposte, then crooned
it. "Fifty cent ho'!" I helped shampoo and rinse her red hair,
naturally wavy. I got liberally soaked, so I casually stepped out of my
gown and underthings. My proud tan Bdy didn't quiver under her rapid gaze,
but filled with strength.
"Luke? Why do you wear a slave collar?"
"I have to wear it, fool! The damn thing
won't come off! It's all one piece, see?" I grabbed her a towel.
"Are you a slave?"
"Why does a person wear a slave collar?"
"Luke, I was just asking."
"OK. This means I'm a slave to the Goddess,
a full-time priestess. Around here it actually makes me kind of like a
Bss, because nobody else of my rank is here right now. Turn around, like
this. You look good enough to eat, kid. You will learn the collar means
a lot more. It means the person who holds my chain can jerk me around,
defeat me, keep me from fighting them, so they can have their way with
me. Mostly guys just use it to pull my face down into their crotch. I like
that."
Rachel was momentarily silent. Evidently
the world was a bigger place than she thought. I firmly toweled off her
compact hips, then firmly swatted them. "Hungry, girl?"
"Not really." She looked deep in
my eyes. "I'd like to learn more from you. I trust you, Luke, and
I want you to show me all I need to know."
"Ah." Gotcha, sweet thing. I grasped
her wet hair and levered her tiny features into place to receive my kiss.
I murmured, "The place to learn more from me is in bed, child. We're
in the wrong roo
nbsp;
When it was Rachel's turn, she was collected,
skin radiant and unblemished. Her gown of wheat color was quite transparent
in daylight, and scarcely concealing in artificial light. I could just
squeeze her until her little head popped off. I don't know what reminded
me, but I flashed on a time when a girl named Vicki was walking up a hill
with a dude named Carl, and had kicked his feet from under him in the dark.
That hour which followed had been the most exciting in Miss Vicki's short
life, until she got renamed. I expected that Rachel faced such a peak experience
now, so I studied her face closely to have a basis for later comparison.
It was a long time before I was called in
to provide aftercare for Rachel. Her face showed utter exhaustion, but
she glowed. As I washed her down she told me she was Jennifer now, Jennifer
383. I thought I would be able to remember that.

Novice's
Impressions
My novitiate, like my day as an acolyte,
was brief but intense. I attribute the extreme interest shown in my advancement
by the high and mighty among the Sisterhood simply to my image. Some have
preference for looks like mine: fair, slender, intense. Perhaps it was
because I let everything show too much. They like that in their young victims.
Only a woman very unaware spiritually could
claim that the novitiate was psychically damaging. If she was injured by
any revelation, she just forgot to duck. The Sisterhood signals its blows
against your self-conceptions. Yes, you get beat every time you get fucked,
nearly, but that doesn't condition you against sex. Far from it. Transcendence
is real, is your first illumination. That gets you by your encounters with
all but the clumsiest of the Worshipers. It's fun. You come and come.
But to be penetrated by an experienced Sister,
who knows exactly how you feel! Fun was something you just dreamed about
before. Her precision application of the lash right at the very instant
you need it most, can drive you to new heights of excitement. Her goal
is to keep you teetering at the very edge between despair and bliss, until
you just drop off into an ocean of orgasm. I would not think of having
sex without the lash, or some replacement for it. I consider that an indispensable
accessory for sex. I consider the prosthesis another, for sex between women.
My opinions fall right with the consensus of the Sisterhood on these issues.
I like the Sisterhood a lot. I would die
for the Sisterhood gladly, although my preferred way to go out is in the
bellies of my Sisters. Yes, I have been initiated to the fourth degree,
I know about the sacrifice. I want it. It would be so fucking easy, easy,
easy to do. All you have to do is scream once while they cut your heart
out. I doubt that you're really conscious when they make you kiss it. If
you are, you're probably in an advanced state of shock from loss of blood
pressure. It takes them about a second or two to get it out, and up to
your face. You have had plenty of time to die by then. Still, from what
I saw, it looked like she kissed it. I fail to imagine her pain. The flavor
of the meat was incomparable to anything in my experience.
But the novitiate. People thought I was a
little treasure, which is bad news in a way for a novice with delicate
nerves. They gave me no peace. I came in with my head in the clouds over
my interlude with the Consort. My abstracted air caught the lustful attention
of a certain Monitor on duty, and she signaled her companion Baduccaa 807.
Baduccaa is a tall blonde, with beauty to make your eyes ache. She intercepted
me in the hall. As soon as I realized she intended to speak to me, I started
to ask her directions, but she cut me off by gruffly demanding my ritual
objects. Proudly I knelt and presented her with my new whip and rope. She
Bund my hands firmly and chained my collar, hauling me down the hall to
her own destination. My confusion and anxiety rose steadily. Just inside
her portal she dropped my gown from my shoulders, leaving me naked except
for my new restraint accessories. I did not know what to expect, but I
was beginning to be afraid I did know. Baduccaa felt impersonally of my
stomach and arms.
"Pretty good," she commented. "Skinny,
but looks like good stuff. Hey, you're pretty spaced. Did the Consort knock
your stuffing out, girl? I bet he pumped you so full of cum you looked
like a pear. Yeah, you look about his type. Skinny and young and pretty.
Tight, too, ain't you?" She had a finger probed up my vagina. "Yeah,
like a snapping turtle. When our By finds a virgin who tries to pinch
his dick off, he really parties. Worshiped in you for quite a while, did
he? You still sore?"
"Yeah, maybe a little."
"Well, you're just a fuckin whore. You
don't rule the fuckin world."
I was startled. It was the first time I had
heard the expression. Was she putting me down, or trying to sympathize
with me? What did that mean anyway? "What does that mean?"
"Here, let's free your hands."
She skillfully removed the rope from my wrists. I felt an odd sense of
loss.
"Have you ever seen a Bilbeaux before?"
"I heard of a dildo."
She fetched an odd-looking object from an
honorable position in an alcove, her altar. It looked like a phallus with
a couple odd protuberances where the testicles should join on.
I asked, "How come it's black?"
Baduccaa replied, "Don't know. They
all are. Tradition, I guess. This is a fluidically-operated transducer
of fucking motion to clitoral stimulus. Feel it."
I took the weighty little device she handed
me. It was firm but flexible. Feeling down the shaft of the cock, I made
fluid run in little tubes inside the soft surface. My motion made little
knobs turn under rubber at the other end, and the protuberances distended
a little.
"Wow. What does it do?" I knew
I had asked a dumb question when I saw her turn absolutely red in her effort
to keep from answering it.
She said instead, "This part goes in
your pussy, this other part in your ass. See how these two knurled knobs
rest on your clitoris. You get stimulation there when the dick part squeezes
into a tight little pussy. Like yours." A friendly finger dabbled
through the lips of my vagina.
I was wrist free so I ignored the provocative
trespass.
"Why is it so warm?"
"It stays warm, Bdy temperature. The
holder thing there recharges it and keeps it warm. That's the only place
you can reprogram it."
I asked, "What does the programming
do for it?"
"Changes the feel of it. The way it
tickles your clit, you know? You can make it nuzzle you in the ass if you
want to. Is that a great gadget, or what?"
"I've never seen anything like that."
"Of course not. Nobody has them but
us. It's the big reason we're all freaking Lesbians."
"Wow," I said again. "I wondered
about that, how true it all was. So that's really the way it is?"
Baduccaa pinched me on the clit, not really
hard, enough to straighten my spine. "Why don't you stay here for
a while, long enough for me to explain to you whether it's true or not.
I think I will be able to make you understand in a few days, or maybe weeks,
whether there's any queers around here. Please? Are you thinking it over?"
She was pinching me a lot harder now. I was
standing on tiptoes. My hands were on her arm; I wanted to push her away,
but I was scared to. "Okay! Okay! I'll stay with you, just please
let me go."
She didn't let go. She made it hurt instead.
I whimpered, and backed into a wall. She covered my mouth with hers while
she hurt me, so my cries were stifled in her mouth. That was my introduction
to my new girlfriend Baduccaa.

Excess
Sex
For System routing let me say Sexuality,
Sisterhood symposia, to establish data channels. We have some very relevant
recent inputs in those places. To the Sister who is concerned that the
largest portion of her time awake is spent in sex, the act itself or thoughts
relating to the immediate experience of sex that day: I get what you're
saying. You feel your time would be more productively spent in activities
more directly concerned with solving the world's problems, I think. I in
fact agree with you, in a categorical way. In your case possibly you should
arrange more of your time for abstract pursuits.
Ask the System for a daychart. It takes telemetry
from your collar which allows it to make guesses about the levels of physiologically
active trace chemicals in your Bdy from moment to moment. It verifies
and refines those guesses every time you donate piss, maybe ten times a
day or whatever. You get to visualize your twenty-five hour record of biochemistry
as coordinated with Bttom brain activity. With practice you can get to
view your own moods through the day. The System says the average Sister
spends about thirty-one percent of her day in sex-related moods or thoughts.
Considering only Sisters who are here working as active Priestesses, that
fraction jumps to thirty-eight percent. Very likely your estimate that
a majority of your time is spent in that way is a subjective over-estimate.
This is very understandable.
Medically, we have not yet seen any signs
of damage from the mere state of intensive concentration on sexual matters.
The Goddess does not demand sacrifice of our health in this way. Refer
to the Whipping symposium for ongoing discussion of the health issues of
repetitive skin impact. Your thinking about sex all the time now probably
does not hurt your future health, though continually engaging in masochistic
sexual practices does have an adverse effect. That's something we are thinking
about very hard. Log in and help us think.
You may find you've been ignoring some System
hints on subjects of interest to you. Productive work, which advances the
progress of the Sisterhood, can come out of surprising sources. If there's
something you like to talk about, the chances are pretty good that some
of your other Sisters want to hear what you have to say on that. Ideas
sprout magically out of spontaneous dialog. You can be working when you
don't know you are. Use the System, stretch its limits. You never know
how words you input might be weighted. In the course of chatting idly with
a friend, your sentences could be applied as stating the definitive position
of the Sisterhood as a whole on that particular issue, or some aspect of
it. We're making up our own rules as we go along, and you're among the
rulers.
We like sex around here. It's our worship.
We like it more intensely when we're getting hurt. We think that's part
of our natural wiring, the way we're put together as female mammals. If
we're right about that, we can make certain statements that apply to the
female humans in the secular world, quiet observations about the woman's
relationship to society. If she, the secular woman, is trying to regulate
her behavior on the basis of an incorrect theory of her sexuality, it explains
why social structures are so awkward, and why she is so uncomfortable with
her life.
We would like to model a social restructuring,
a model of society based on the women's cohort as the essential and decisive
social unit. We would like to show this model is more stable than patriarchal
nuclear families. We don't like to express our masochism, which we feel
may be the most natural sexual appetite of the female human, within any
social situation defined by men. We think women should be in charge while
their wrists are free, not necessarily as individuals, but collectively.
A woman who is in a household dominated by
a single male, who arranges her effective isolation from her female peers,
is not in a good place to reveal her preference for pain sex. She will
be exploited and progressively isolated, and her submission will result
in the diminishment of her personality. She may become obsessed with privacy
to hide her shame. Very likely the male will tend to tyranny, thinking
that's the way she likes it. We don't favor couples generally, in the milieu
of pain sex, because we don't like the inevitable development of dominance.
That's why we have our Sisters around, to pull us away from a particular
man before we have given him too much of ourselves. We are biased always
toward promiscuity, against pair-Bnding.
We have accumulated a lot of evidence favorable
to our hypothesis concerning pain sex as a built-in circuit of reflexes
in women right there on the orgasmic trigger. That is big news for our
species. This big secret is ours to develop and reveal. If we use it right,
it will serve as our tool to restructure society to be more survivable
during the coming ecological crises. Pain sex is perverse on the individual
level, whenever a particular male can completely define the circumstances.
We like it when a man beats a woman in the Temple, but we don't like it
when a man beats a woman in his house. If she has no Sisters to turn to
when it's over, she can descend into submissiveness as a pathological mental
state, in which she doesn't do the world much good.
Our ideas about sexuality put us in opposition
to the nuclear family. In current world conditions, we see the nuclear
family as a deadly trap. No woman in such a situation is advised to reveal
her normal preference for pain sex, for development of an unhealthy dominance-submission
relationship is the inevitable result. Such a relationship automatically
tends to drift to the extreme which threatens the woman's survival, with
her lines of communication to other women severed. Because we think pain
sex is natural to women, we don't approve of households headed by men.
That's the long and short of it.
I hope this discussion will help you focus
on your issue of lingering love for your man. Baby, don't feel like the
lone ranger. You corner any Sister, and she will tell you there is somebody
she would like to be with. But pairing off just doesn't mix with pain sex;
it can get a girl beaten to death. The Sisterhood is the only safe way
to live if you want to express your desires for loving that hurts so deliciously.

Teaching
Slave
Baduccaa put me up to directing a Lay Initiation
class. The Lay Sisters are women who sympathize with us, but who live out
on the streets rather than in the Temple. Therefore, their initiation levels
can never go as high as ours can, and there are some very basic facts about
the Sisterhood which may not be discussed with them. Mostly, all you do
is show them how to present their Ritual Objects, then turn Worshipers
loose on them. They get their little thrill and go home to their husbands,
marveling at how brave they've been. You have to look out for any tricky
questions they might have about the Temple and the Sisterhood. Also, B
says, watch for any woman who shows real talent, and try to seduce her
(literally or figuratively) into becoming a Novice and giving up her life
outside.
To find out just what kind of questions I
might have to field, I have had the System chip out the Initiation text
for the Hostess, the Sister who guards the Temple front gate. I don't think
I would like that job. You have to watch all these hunk Worshipers swing
their dicks by, and not be able to get any. Men are my favorite sex partners.
When my wrists are free, though, I can't stand them. I must tell B I need
to spend more time edifying. --
Strange to think that I have the initiation
level needed to be Hostess, but I am still the First Slave's favorite whipping
girl instead. I could be out cutting a jolly swathe among the fresh sweet
novices, but I just don't feel like it. I guess I haven't "flipped"
yet, that is, changed my personality from submissive to dominant. I just
don't get turned on by the thought of whipping a girl. The prosthesis is
a lot of fun, especially the new programmable ones. That's true whichever
end of it you're on, or even by yourself. But I still get all breathless
at the thought of tasting the lash, and I start melting whenever I get
tied up. I guess I'll change soon enough, but I'm not in any hurry. Not
everybody changes over.
B is pretty good to me. Sometimes I wake
up in the middle of the night and she's feeling me up. At first it's just
kind and comfortable, and we might smile and chat a while, but I can't
help getting interested. When I'm wiggling just right she will crawl between
my knees and go down on me. She toys with my clit with her lips and tongue
until I explode. Then when we kiss I can taste myself in her mouth. We
snuggle with my face on her breast until we fall asleep again. I think
that way is nicer than fooling with all the apparatus and ritual objects
and shit. Of course, I don't come as hard that way, and she doesn't come
at all, but it seems more personal when nothing is involved but just us.
It doesn't count on our initiation levels, not registered on the System
at all, but I bet the monitors sometimes watch us anyway.
We're not in love or anything, not really.
She keeps me around because, you know, I react good and sing, and she likes
my looks. I like hanging around the Bss because of the perks, and she
has a lot to teach me. I think I will get a cell of my own just so I can
have my own altar, and keep a few things in it. I will keep on staying
here, but I will have a place to go just in case I want to try out one
of the new girls. I saw one today who was awfully pretty, being led off
on a chain. I thought to myself, "What a lucky catch!" Whatever
happens, the Goddess is kind.

Trying
This at Home
The home-study course version of hermetic
initiation has the obvious disadvantage that ritual intercourse is not
reliably available outside the Temple; the assurance of safety is lacking.
You may choose your partner with ideal wisdom, or else you and he may be
human and fallible. The Sisterhood, therefore, does not recommend self-initiation
by study, meditation, intuition or other lonely means exclusively.
Solipsism is the logical error which characterizes
loss of meaningful communication with one's peers. The isolated human tends
to forget that intentional consciousness is not the entirety of the mind,
and that the mind is not the entirety of the being, and that the being
is not the entirety of the universe.
The Goddess blesses a very specific social
interaction. The blessing may not extend to an abstraction in lonely logic.
Real intercourse between real persons is essential to real understanding
of the Goddess. For this reason the authenticity of initiation ritual is
devoutly recommended. To presume you understand, without the experience,
is very likely false.
Quite possibly you may arrange to hurt yourself
in some way experimentally, to see whether you can thereby potentiate a
masturbatory orgasm. The pain you thus inflict upon yourself proves no
point. It is not covered by the blessing of the Goddess. Any conclusion
you may reach under this circumstance is liable to be a delusion.
With a willing partner, perhaps your mate,
you may make some progress in understanding the Way of the Goddess. Yet
it is most difficult to achieve enough balance with just the two of you,
to allow your awareness to reach to the far horizon. Most find that their
best progress on the road to enlightenment is made during attendance at
the Temple. Carnal pleasure with transcendental pain is a very powerful
formula for stimulating the understanding. Yield to the warm urging of
the Goddess and come down to the Temple. Your Bdy and your mind should
achieve a proper degree of enlightenment together.
In the modern world, an assertive woman may
have a high degree of control over who shares her Bdy, and when, and where,
and how. This is right and commendable. In the confines of the Temple,
once she submits to Bndage, she surrenders that control to the tender
mercies of the Goddess. The Goddess is kind enough to assume all responsibility
for the woman's feelings from that point, from her comprehensions to her
expressions, her responses and reflexes, her guilt or grief, her muscles
and membranes, also her pain and also her ecstacy.
The ritual object the rope is generally understood
to be tied around the initiated woman's wrists, binding them together at
least. In ritual practice the wrists of the initiated woman are frequently
Bund to a fixed place, which gives the male sex partner freedom of approach
to love and beat her.
The ritual object the whip, at these levels
of initiation, is not the cracking whip with the tip which can go supersonic.
It is a short weapon designed to minimize bruising and abrasion. Its use
in ritual is restricted to the time the initiated woman's Bdy is penetrated
by the third ritual object, usually found attached to a man. The exception
is if the woman, although not penetrated, specifically asks for each stroke.
High ceremony differs, in ways which should concern only aspirant priestesses.
The degree of pain the Goddess asks for is
really rather modest. She might have chosen to enjoy more hurtful practices.
That She likes to feel Her disciples get hurt is just oversimplification.
Being a goddess, She can feel from either side. If She likes to taste the
instant of being squeezed by a nervous pussy when the beautiful, delicious,
quivering human woman was struck with that whip; should She feel it from
either side or Bth, is She not the Goddess? She looks through all these
eyes.
Before you can wear the slave collar of Inanna,
you have to become one of the baddest, meanest bitches who ever walked
this planet. Your initiation by that time will have included just about
everything that can safely be done to a tied-up female. Yes, you will possibly
pick up a scar or two; you might also have a brand, a tattoo, a piercing.
You may not have chosen all your marks. Well, you're just a whore, you
don't rule the world.
People do step aside for sweet girls like
you who wear that collar, though. Tricks don't try to play money games
with you. Ladies of the Lady get respect in the city. The Goddess takes
care of her own, is the word on the streets. If the lady wants your company,
she will ask you for it, but look and look again at the skin.
The vocation of priestess is really suited
to few applicants. A priestess may be required to entertain many male worshipers
a day as a sexual submissive taking blows, although her own orientation
might be same-sex and dominant when she's at home in her Temple apartment.

In
the 'Hood
Sister Margaret asked the Consort, "What
are we going to do about the gangsta thing?"
The Consort said, "Why don't you tell
me as much as you like, about what you see is the nature of the problem."
Margaret launched out. "Well there are
people driving around with automatic weapons shooting other people. Nobody
authorized them to do that. There are a million people smoking cocaine
every day, funneling lots of money into it. The whole mystique has become
a complex part of Black racial identity. It is a major problem of public
safety. One would believe the Goddess must have some concern on this issue
on humanitarian grounds."
The Consort mused, "The Goddess personally
isn't very humanitarian, and She may not even be humane. I don't know what
ethnically appeals to her, or may apply to her for that matter; the Sumerians
aren't around any more, but they were a lot like Iranians. That's a pretty
people. On the addiction situation, a million people think they're addicted,
despite a specific aspect of the symptomology of classical addiction being
absent. The truth is, the specific substance they're hooked on is non-addictive.
They may stop its use instantly, without any physical ailment except for
hyperchondria. The only damage is perceptual, and the swing through sensations
and emotions which forms our own little habituation. Self- inflicted mental
pain, I suppose you would call it.
"The Goddess says the Ritual is stronger
than the crack pipe. Some whip blows can take a cocaine junkie's mind off
her little monkey in a hurry. It works fine for males too, but you have
to catch them first, and the Goddess doesn't like working like that. We
get a lot of our Sisters from crackheads and junkies, who know instinctively
that we have the drastic answer that their personal problem needs. In most
cases, they do become pain addicts, and convince themselves they can't
come unless they are in pain. Most of these ladies can be ambushed, by
unexpected variations in rhythm, into orgasm without the accompaniment
of pain, and at that instant they realize that they aren't really junkies
to anything any more. It's very liberating.
"Margaret, you would have preferred
a more worldly answer to that secular problem, an answer less spiritual
in scope. There are your secular sisters on the streets for a nickel and
a dime, and sometimes they get shot, and that's not right. You want to
heal some of them with the whip, girl you got a mission. I mean that literally,
we'll rent you a place as far uptown as you want, deep in the hood, a good
big place. You take your little sisters in, and you treat them right, show
them there was something they didn't even know about. Show them and get
them to swear, and we'll assign a Communicant, or I might drop by sometime.
They have to swear right before initiation, but you can tell them about
it, sort of feel them out while you're feeling them up. We won't ever be
able to give advance word of an initiation visit, for security reasons.
If one of us men come by and you don't have anybody ready to be initiated,
be ready to take your lumps because we will probably ask for your ritual
objects. We'll assign you two Sisters, your own choice, and you can get
one of them to jump in for you and take your beating if you learn how to
handle your girls. Tell them that's what they're there for.
"I don't care what color Sisters you
pick. I know this cutest little blonde cunt, I mean Sister, who needs to
get the faintest tint of racism scrubbed out, and a few dozen big black
cocks in her would be good for her health. You will also need a medical
Sister there, in addition to your assistants. Sub rosa, we will make sure
there is a crack house next door, to hold a girl's interest and keep her
around until you have explained the situation to her. When she's sworn,
we ship her out of that part of town, until she has taken charge of her
own Bdy chemistry at least. Seduce them, swear them in, and ship them
here. We know a little bit about bad girls. They won't go back on the pipe.
"You know what kind of girls we like.
Looks and imagination are important to us, and extra flesh won't do. You
can keep all kinds of chubby playmates around, but we won't take them in.
It's always good to find a girl who's extra sensitive to pain, their songs
have such fullness. We like to take the upper crust, because that crust
peels so fine. Sophistication is so sweet when it unravels. When you get
to men, go for looks there too. Men for us, I mean, not the clientele.
Let them know about the little problem they might have with the initiation,
because it's the same as the women's, exactly. It's true that a Communicant
gets all the pussy he can use, all the finest stuff, but sometimes he has
to answer to other dudes, too, and if he's not ready for that we have some
ways to make him ready. You don't come on a good Communicant every day,
so don't let yourself be fooled by every sexy whip hand.
"Am I talking your language, Sister
Margaret? Do you like the way the answer to your question is shaping up?
We will have to take a couple more properties in the area for security
reasons, but you can pretend to know nothing about those places until you
need to use them. I will pay for you to hire two seculars, in case anybody
comes by that's just too sweet for you to part with. Don't get involved
in shifting large sums of money around, that's someone else's department
and you don't know what we need done with it. Try your best not to get
in wars with gangs of fools, but you can let people know that we don't
let anybody hurt our Sisters. If anybody shoots at our house, we will try
to take them out then and there, because at least one of our security points
will have live personnel twenty-four seven.
"When you get down to it, my sweet Sister
with your darling little clit, you're in the baddest posse in town. If
you point a finger at an individual, we will give very strong consideration
to taking that party out of the big picture, but if you use this option
too loosely, girlfriend, I swear I personally will hurt you personally,
in such a way you won't like it. Enough said on light little matters. You
gonna do me this little favor?"
"Yes! You just rang up my number, Mister
Consort Sir. You can prove to me in a minute how serious you are. I say
you're just a big liar, and I won't believe a word you say when my wrists
are free. You're a liar, and you got no dick to speak of, and when I show
you my whip you won't dare hit me with it, because you're just a chickenshit
motherfucker. Have I made my opinion clear? You want me to say it again
on my knees? Liar, chickenshit. Here, take these, I bet you don't even
know what to do with them. Oh, yes, baby, you figured out what to do with
the rope, but I know you can't even use the other, you're so chickenshit.
Ouch, I was just kidding, it was all just a big joke, you can let me go
now, please let me go now. Ouch, hey baby, use my face and shut me up,
I can see something you can use, that might fit in my mouth. Ow, ow, take
my face before I start making silly noises, or just do what you want. Thanks.
Mm."

Turning
Out
Leticia did not even Bther to turn around
and close the car door behind her. She yelled out some perfunctory thanks
to the driver who had brought her here, as she started running toward the
amazing airships grounded in the open field. The pasture grass was tall,
and still wet with dew. Leticia's tennis shoes were squishy in a dozen
steps, and the weeds brushed moisture on her bare shins. Nothing mattered
to her but getting closer to those outrageous fat sausages of pastel blue
fabric, clumped so provocatively in the meadow.
As she drew nearer she saw how big the ships
really were. Big, right, she knew to expect big, but the fact big and the
feeling big are two different kinds of largeness. If her house were inside
that big envelope, she could stuff in all the other houses on her block,
and have room left over for the church down the street and a gas station
or two. If this machine were parked at her place, she imagined it would
just cover her whole block. Big. Here by an overnight miracle was not just
one, but five of the enormous vehicles, drawn up in a close formation to
block the wind. Leticia wanted a ride.
That wasn't all she wanted. These ships carried
the Sisterhood, that strange, enchanting society of women so curiously
hated by everyone Leticia knew. The Sisters were called godless witches
and whores, whip worshipers, and worse. When Leticia imagined herself being
called these names, it only excited her, and her privates got hot and wet.
She was a bad girl and loved it, but here were the really bad girls, and
she wanted lessons. She thought she might try to join them, if she could
find out enough about them. If what she found out wasn't too scary.
Leticia had stopped running after realizing
there wasn't much point in it. The car she had come in had driven out of
sight. She veered away from her previous path to take advantage of the
shade, stepping into the long morning shadow of the nearest behemoth of
the sky. She felt sweat on her brow, and a drop of it slid between her
breasts. Even this early, the morning was warm. Well, her running hadn't
been silly or immature. It was just a kind of self-expression. It hadn't
looked this far from the road. Of course, she hadn't realized the true
size of these vehicles.
The relative dimness of the shadow faded
the contrast in Leticia's vision. She heard a girl's voice yelling "Look
out!", but she turned to look for who was shouting, rather than watching
her own path. She tripped over a knee-high rope, tumbling awkwardly to
her elbows. Her feet finally plopped off the rope onto the moist grass
behind her.
The girl who came running up to help her
wasn't any older than Leticia herself. She was maybe prettier and sure
had more breasts. They were held against Bunce by a leather halter, matched
by a leather microskirt on the hips. Leticia's jealous glance at the girl's
clothing was jarred by the colored metal slave collar around her neck.
Clipped to the belly belt, the coil of fabric rope looked soft, but that
black leather whip was no joke. That much was true, then. But this girl
was just her own age!
"I'm fine!" Leticia gasped out.
The girl was saying, "I kept yelling
to you! I knew you couldn't see the line, then when you finally heard me
you walked right into it."
"I'm all right, really. Just help me
up."
"You just took a good nose dive in the
dirt. Sit around a minute and be sure you're not hurt."
The leather girl, after helping Leticia get
her hams under her, held onto her hand, and also helped brush off dirt
here and there. That was kind, Leticia thought. It was pleasant having
a stranger groom you.
"My name's Leticia. Thanks for trying
to warn me. You must be in the Sisterhood."
"Everybody is but you. You're our first
secular of the day. I'm Michelle."
"Nice to meet you. Why am I a circular?"
"Not circular. Secular. Like non-religious,
you know, a civilian. You're local, right?" "From right here
in good old Shitsville," Leticia responded. "You all think of
yourself as religious, like you're a bunch of nuns or something?"
That drew a delighted laugh from Michelle.
She moved to kneel behind Leticia, massaging her brow and temples. "Not
exactly. We're different from nuns in a few ways, just minor things. But
technically, I suppose that's just what we are, a religious order of women.
But chastity only happens when we're sick or on the rag. We're all like
sex addicts, and the nastier it is the better we like it. I guess you might
say we're conditioned to enjoy pain. I for one can't come any more unless
I'm hurting. I think most of the Sisters are like me, also."
Leticia exclaimed, "Wow! That's incredible!
I like the way you rub on my face, by the way. I didn't get hurt there,
but it feels good anyway." After a silent moment she added, "Why
are you telling me this? Don't you think I might be thinking of getting
in with you? Looks like you would be trying to make things look nice for
a stranger. Instead you're showing me the skeletons in the closet, talking
about being conditioned until you can't have a normal orgasm. I didn't
ask you about that."
Michelle giggled again, and went to work
on Leticia's neck. "I didn't say I couldn't get an abnormal orgasm!
I might have to be tied up and tingling, but now when I cum, it's like
a dynamite Bmb went off in my crotch. It's like reaching for the stars
and grabbing a few to bring back. Tie me to a barbed-wire fence and whip
me for days, I'll take that trade."
She had been kneading Leticia's shoulders,
but now her hands slipped over them and she was firmly rubbing Leticia's
breasts. Leticia breathed more deeply, but she didn't pull away. What could
Michelle really feel through the bra? Anyway, she didn't care. It felt
nice, and she liked Michelle. Let her get a few jollies, it didn't cost
anything. What she didn't understand was how a girl her age could be attracted
to girls, when supposedly she was getting all the sex she wanted. Leticia
had held the theory that Lesbians were older women, trying to recapture
their lost youth and beauty by getting it second hand, so to speak, reclaiming
it from the Bdies of younger girls. Well, scratch one theory. She had
to fight an irrational urge to pull off her bra to help.
Michelle went on, "Seriously, though,
I do get it a lot better than I used to. Why should I care what's normal?
And by the way, I knew you were here to join up with us. What else would
you be doing here? Once you've made that decision, there is not a thing
in the world I could tell you that would change your mind. We eat babies,
you know, cut them up and fry them in a pan. You can have some fried baby
for breakfast, if you hurry up and join us. Then after your initiation's
over, I want to take you to bed and lick your wounds."
That sentence was tacked on to the baby bull
shit in such a casual tone that Leticia could not resist turning around
to see Michelle's face. In the split second before Michelle was able to
tack on a tiny grin, Leticia saw real lust there. So this was what the
Sisterhood made of a girl. A true sex addict, a walking hunger. Anybody
big enough to wield a whip would do for this hour's lover; a functioning
dick was helpful but not necessary. Age, race, appearance, sexual orientation
and even gender was of no importance as long as the Bdy was warm and moving.
Leticia made her decision.
"I want to be one of you," she
told Sister Michelle. "I want to join the Sisterhood."
Michelle's smile was definitely friendly
now. She pulled her hands out of Leticia's bra. "Fine, Sister,"
she beamed. "Let me get a kiss."
The kiss was as friendly as it gets. But
to Leticia, the place where Michelle slipped her searching fingers was
anything but sisterly. Right out here in the open. But Leticia also noticed
the skillful way Michelle placed a knee behind her back, propping up Leticia's
torso, so by using only one arm Michelle could control the placement of
Leticia's head, and effectively Bth arms. Michelle's other knee pinned
Leticia's thigh. The Bttom line was that if Leticia had wanted to complain,
say about undue liberties, poking fingers or their scratchy nails, she
didn't have the freedom of motion to do anything to back up that complaint,
except wiggle. Leticia had to admire the slickness with which Michelle
had put her in this position. No doubt, in the Sisterhood you learned fast,
and you learned thoroughly, and you didn't forget your lessons.
As it turned out, Leticia didn't have any
complaints to make. She was absolutely shivering with excitement about
entering this new phase in her life. Michelle's moves might be the kindest,
most gentle transition to this new life. The kiss: no By she had known
had come anywhere close to this, let alone a girl. The feel: Leticia knew
that pretty soon a lot of people would be visiting that pussy. Most of
them, she might not like as well as she did this Michelle. So go, girl,
out here in plain view of the world. The long nails gave the feeling some
spice. Leticia felt those fingers getting juicy. Not bad, all in all. Not
at all bad.
Michelle murmured in her ear, "Would
you like to go to my compartment? I promise I can make you come."
Leticia's heart leaped. She had to gulp it
down before she could answer. "Yes! Uh, yeah, I guess, if it would
be okay, like with the ship and all. Aren't you supposed to be working?"
Michelle waved expansively. "Work is
whatever's important. You're my guest, and that's important. Somebody else
can chase these lines around. I'll owe them a favor later, but that's not
important. You're a live, sexually active human being who's not caught
up in the web of Sisterhood bull shit. Not right this minute, anyway. So
right this minute, you're important to me, because I don't have to think
about how to relate to you. I just do it. It just happens I want to love
you. If that's okay with you."
Leticia was breathless. Who would be the
By, and who would be the girl? How would they do it? Would there be a
whipping? Who would hold the whip, and who would wear the rope? She was
horny, and she trusted her friend Michelle, and they were going to make
it. That was all she needed to know. In a few minutes, she was going to
be gay. That was exciting. It held a flavor of delicious naughtiness. She
didn't think it would happen suddenly like this. She thought being gay
was something you agonized over in your room for years, then stepped out
and announced it to your horrified family. "Mom, I'm a Lesbian."
"So?"
"Oh. Sorry. I didn't know I spoke out
loud."
"Shut up and kiss me, bitch."
Oh! This girl! "What if somebody's looking?"
asked Leticia.
Michelle giggled, guffawed, and finally rolled
on the ground in a big belly laugh. "Look around you," she wheezed.
Everything you see is dedicated to the sex Goddess. If you see anybody,
that person is a slave to the sex Goddess. If we made love here on the
grass, people would walk around us. If we kept it up long enough, they
would probably build an altar to us. Nobody has a problem with us kissing
here. Let's go to my place. I've got some fried baby leftovers."
Defiantly, Leticia kissed her. Licked all
inside her mouth and all. She felt her feet cramping up. Her little case
of the hornies was getting monstrous. Let's go. "Let's go."
On the way, Michelle paused to speak at a
video screen thing, to a couple of different women. She didn't seem like
she was trying to sneak anything. She was perfectly at ease; more so, she
was bristling with smug energy like the cat that swallowed the canary.
So everything they were doing was perfectly all right. Leticia was getting
to feel comfortable inside Michelle's protective aura.
The compartment held two beds. Evidently
Michelle had a roommate. That was no immediate concern to Leticia, because
Michelle was stripping her. Fine, she enjoyed the luxury of having her
clothes removed, but --- "Hold on. Let me go piss."
"Okay, but I gotta show you how to use
it."
What! "I don't think so." To Leticia's
consternation, she had to call out, "Michelle, come show me how to
use this thing!"
Michelle explained, "Airship. Ultra
tech. Low mass. Low water use. Strictly female. If you want to shit, or
on your period, use that over there."
"Where's the paper?"
"Lift your ass a little."
"What the fuck? Don't like that. It
tickles."
"Clean, though, right?"
"You people are fucking nuts. Looney tunes.
Around the fucking bend."
Smiling at her, Michelle gathered Leticia in her
arms. "Welcome to the club, honey."
Leticia told Michelle softly, "I like you
a lot, girl." Gently she popped Michelle's breasts out of their leather
halter. "I like your tits too." She nuzzled one of the nipples,
then looked up at Michelle. "Take me to bed. Take me."
Leticia laid back and enjoyed Michelle's attentions.
It was startlingly sensuous to have those nipples dragged over your thighs,
your belly, and especially your own breasts. Then Michelle used her mouth,
and matters got seriously interesting. Undeniably interesting. The varied
textures of lips, teeth and tongue wandering over her belly and adjacent
areas entranced Leticia, and abstractedly she listened to herself purring
like a kitten in appreciation. The feelings grew sweeter as the nibbling
and licking concentrated on her breasts, and kind, generous fingers provided
by Michelle lightly caressed her pussy. She would have loved to sail off
into soft oblivion, but the touch on her clitoris kept building her blood
pressure, and fresh pleasure flowed through her consciousness with each
pulse.
"Such splendor, Michelle," she tried
to explain. "Such grandeur."
Michelle shifted down and settled with her face
between Leticia's thighs. Leticia sighed her happiness, toying with strands
of Michelle's hair. First hot breath, and a subtle brush of dry lips. Then
those lips, still dry, were playfully plucking at her tenderest flesh.
The lips rubbed repeatedly over her clit, and serious interest returned
with a rush. The clit was sucked into those lips, and released. Stretched
over teeth, the lips grabbed and held her clit, and tugged at it, and nipped
at it. Sweet sighs were no longer in, so Leticia loosed a groan for her
lover.
Michelle unsheathed her tongue. Leticia's feelings
graduated from serious to intense. The texture of the tongue, and its wetness,
gave her clit no respite from stimulation. The intensity of the stimulation
varied from wow to lookout, as the movements of the tongue varied. Well,
that could be it. The tongue could prove to be the lethal weapon. Oh, but
Michelle showed her yet more, as she Bbbed her face in Leticia's crotch.
The former licks and flicks now seemed weak and puny without the pressure
of the face behind them to lend them substance. Leticia realized she had
been panting, but even more interesting was the fact she was now whimpering.
Oh, it didn't take long, not long at all. It was
like riding along and seeing a sign flash by that you couldn't read, and
you had to bring the sign's image back in your mind, and focus and sharpen
the letters on it, until you realized the sign said Point of No Return,
so you knew but it didn't matter. Leticia noticed she was crying out, but
that was okay because she was about to come, and a few more scrapes from
that wicked tongue and she was coming, so she cried out. Splendor, grandeur.
Why was she squeezing that girl's head with her legs? She liked that girl.
Michelle, her name was. The one with the tongue. Come up here, Michelle.
I would like to squeeze you.
A few sticky minutes later, Leticia found herself
walking into a Barding port of the second airship down the line. She had
passed a handful of women, all surprisingly young, all wearing slave collars
and businesslike whips. Their greetings had been friendly and respectful,
but they all knew why a pretty girl was wandering among the ships of the
Sisterhood with a lost look. Sister Alice was issuing directions to the
driver of a perfectly ordinary-looking light pickup, when Leticia finally
caught up to her. The girl who was driving the pickup was dressed with
modest plainess, in sharp contrast to all the other Sisters Leticia had
seen. Leticia was startled to see that the driver was not wearing a collar.
When she saw Leticia she was also startled, probably for the same reason,
and immediately turned her face aside. When she turned back to resume talking
to Sister Alice, she was holding up a handkerchief to hide her features.
Leticia hadn't recognized her, but no doubt her behavior was a routine
security precaution. The Sisterhood was Bund to have business from time
to time which was best done discreetly. With that collar off, you were
just another woman, able to trade and do business as a private party. The
driver cranked up and drove out of the airship hold, with her hanky to
her face all the while.
Sister Alice was a tall woman, not so young as
most of the others Leticia had seen, but not nearly old enough to start
thinking about wrinkles and gray hair. She dealt with the Leticia business
with typical efficiency, and no evident feeling. She asked formally whether
Leticia meant to swear in as an acolyte Sister in the Order of Inanna,
then reeled off a list of standard cautions and warnings, all so carefully
phrased that Leticia knew they had been memorized. After each one, Leticia
had to assert her understanding. At the end, when Sister Alice was prepared
to dismiss Leticia for the medical exam, security interrogation and biographical
taping, Leticia spoke up for herself.
"Just a minute, Sister Alice. I have been
advised to request First Initiation from any available Communicant at the
first opportunity, and specifically not to wait on the Consort's schedule.
Would this have any effect on the timing of my initiation?"
Sister Alice almost gave a smile. "Yes, it
certainly would. It seems you must have a friend already among the Sisters,
who is trying to win you some free time early in your novitiate. I won't
ask who gave you this advice, or what your plans are. I do feel I should
tell you, though, that most of the Sisters would give you the opposite
counsel. They feel that an initiation experience with the Consort would
be worth the wait. In this case, you would be in limbo as an unsworn acolyteface="Arial"three
or four days, and you would have to pretty much be isolated from everything
and everybody until you could be placed at the Novitiate. Should you be
initiated by a Communicant, you could be a Novice Sister this afternoon,
free to wander around and snoop into whatever you wanted. Either way, you
won't get to stay here through the whole Carnival. By dawn tomorrow, you're
going to be a long way from here."
"My friend wanted me to see the Carnival
tonight," Leticia volunteered.
"That's a security problem for us. I
don't think you ought to do that," Alice ordered.
"How do you mean?"
"In a case such as yours, the local
infidels will wish to reclaim you as their own. They may even resort to
force to do so, if they have positive knowledge you are with us. If you
are seen here at the Carnival with a slave collar on, they would need no
more than that, to bring all their fierceness against us."
Leticia translated to herself as Alice spoke.
She was a teenage runaway, and anybody who saw her here tonight might call
the cops. Then the cops would come in and close down the show, just to
find an underage girl wearing a slave collar. When you put it that way
it made sense, without involving the positive knowledge of infidel ferocity
and all that shit. Much as she hated to admit it, Alice was absolutely
right. It was too risky.
Give it a last shot for Michelle. "Maybe
if I went in disguise, like a costume or something, and wore a mask or
a veil the whole time, nobody would know me."
Unexpectedly, Alice bit on that one. "There
may be some part in the mummers' show you could fill which would not require
rehearsal. I will find out about it. Now you must go for your examination."
Well, hold the jubilation. A part in a show
might mean anything. She might not even be able to see Michelle at all,
much less spend time with her. Michelle would be involved in "edifying
Worshipers", the same way hookers did it all over the world. With
the addition of the rope and whip. With these additions, Leticia suspected
that one trick, er, Worshiper, could use quite a chunk out of a girl's
evening, in terms of time. Well, good enough.
"Thank you, ma'am."
Alice frowned. "Thanks are not needed.
I have done you no service. Please call me Sister. Ma'am is a term of civil
address not appropriate for your Sisters. Report to sickbay now."
The medical examination was unpleasant and
incomprehensible, but the security debriefing was all of that and scary
too. Leticia shrewdly guessed that the fancy chair she sat in for that
was some kind of lie detector. The security officer, or whatever she was,
thankfully left, taking most of the secrets of Leticia's life with her.
But still in the fancy security chair, she had to answer some general questions
about her life, questions coming to her over a small speaker. She believed
that the woman's voice asking the questions actually belonged to some kind
of machine. But all the questions were bread and butter stuff, even the
part about her sex life, which she had already answered for the doctors,
if that's what they were, and the security officer, if that's what she
was.
The machine woman, if that's what she was,
finally used up her monotonous curiosity. The speaker said, "Just
a moment, please. Someone will be with you shortly." Not five seconds
passed before a Sister, who was a small brunette, entered. She held a measuring
tape and a memo mike. She looked somewhat dismayed at Leticia's loose clothing.
"Look, Sister," she began, and
then bit her lip. "I mean, Sister-to-be. Would you mind taking off
your clothes, or at least the outer garments? It's to your advantage that
I get all these measurements exactly right. Everybody else I ever measured
was nude, and I don't know how much to allow for your clothes. I would
hate to get anything wrong, and then you would hate me too."
This at least was a refreshing change from
the presumption of universal competence which Leticia had come to expect
over the last couple hours. She smiled at the girl, and stripped completely
without self-consciousness.
The young Sister took her vital measurements,
then some subsidiary measurements, then some pretty obscure measurements.
Leticia was starting to wonder, but the young Sister stated each reading
matter-of-factly into the mike. At length she said, "All right, thanks
for helping. I know you're probably hungry, but you shouldn't eat right
now. Come with me when you get dressed, and I'll get you something to drink,
and show you where you can wash up. Deal?"
Leticia smiled at her. "Best offer I've
had all day. Actually, second best, but don't worry about it. You got beer?"
The small Sister grimaced. "We call
it near-beer, because it has so little alcohol in it. Take the cola, it
tastes better. You know why they don't let us drink much alcohol? They
say it would make us fat! Here, you're decent enough. Throw that damn bra
away. You don't need one any more than I do. Come on."
Leticia always felt freer without a bra.
She left her blouse defiantly unfastened in front, showing a broad patch
of her chest, but tied the tails at her midriff. A broad feeling of satisfaction
with her new life was beginning to rise in her like a tide. Hey, girlfriend,
she told herself, better wait to see if you make it through initiation
before you get too happy.
They went to a compartment, a wardroom. Leticia
saw no drinks, but saw a big bed, and started to wonder. But the nameless
Sister folded two padded platforms away from the wall, which immediately
puffed up with air on the Bttom to support themselves, forming benches.
She folded out a table, which puffed out a fat tube on the Bttom to hold
it up, in place of legs. Her fingers played among the patterns of a flat
panel which had been hidden by the table. With a hiss and a thump there
appeared behind a clear door a fat plastic pillow, which opened up revealing
two ice-cold tubes of cola. Leticia drained hers so fast she got another
the same way. The Sister, not so thirsty, had stepped away after a couple
of sips to work magic in the bathroom area, getting a long pad to rapidly
inflate itself into a bathtub.
"I thought you might want a tub,"
she said over the sound of running water. "The showers are kind of
weak."
"Great, thanks, Sister," Leticia
said. "What's your name, by the way?"
"I'm just your helper, it doesn't matter.
I'm finished, and you won't see me any more, for a long time, anyway. Good
luck with your initiation, and have a nice trip."
"Bye. Thanks for your help." After
the Sister had gone out, Leticia found towels and bathing essentials without
any problem. Everything in the compartment was arranged with sound logic,
even if it was not always obvious. The wardroom facilities were well designed
to common themes, saving weight and stowing out of the way. If Leticia
couldn't find something right away, the panel over the table could be configured
to show a kind of inventory map. Beat.
After she had washed her hair and all, Leticia
was lying back relaxing in the tub, soaking in some of the turbulent events
of the day. She heard a noise at the door and grabbed for a towel. Sister
Alice came in carrying a cloth bag.
"It's okay, Leticia," she sang
out. "You can finish your bath. I'll wait."
The bath was finished anyway. Leticia dried
herself thoroughly with the towel, not even worried whether Sister Alice
was looking at her nude Bdy. She had been getting a lot braver about showing
her skin. That was due to her companionship.
Alice spoke again. "Don't get dressed.
I won't be here long. This is for you, but it's just a temporary until
we get yours ready." She pulled a slave collar from her bag. Its face
showed gray, rather than the pretty blues and greens worn by the other
Sisters. She tucked Leticia's wet hair off her neck and clamped the slave
collar in place. The firm click as the edges joined told Leticia that somebody
better have a key to the damn thing.
Alice pitched her voice just a tiny bit louder.
"This goes on it." To her dismay, Leticia saw she meant the end
of a shiny metal chain. A locking link clicked in place around a ring of
her collar. Was it too late to mention she had just been joking the whole
time? Alice prodded at a floor tile, which slid back to show a big metal
staple. The free end of the chain locked solidly on this. Oh, girl. Something
tickled inside Leticia's belly. Don't get dressed, the lady said. That
was out of the question now. Her clothes were out of reach.
A broad belt was cinched snugly at Leticia's
navel. Sister Alice's voice had gained a vibrato. "These are your
ritual objects. Kiss them; they are sacred. They will stay with you always."
First the soft, pliable rope, then the stiff new black whip. Alice helped
Leticia fasten them to her belt.
"Now kneel. Woman of no name, do you
swear while you live and after your death you will remain slave to the
Goddess Inanna, and devote to Her all your pain and all your joy? Say I
swear."
"I swear."
"Woman of no name, do you swear you
will share with the Sisters of the Order of Inanna all your feelings, all
your love and all your despair, sharing all the feelings of your Sisterhood,
and be one with your Sisters while you live and after your death?"
"I swear."
"Woman of no name, do you swear to give
your Bdy and all its beauties, its torments and its ecstasies, freely
to the worship of the Goddess Inanna, abandoning your fate to Her lust
and to Her will?"
"I swear."
"Kiss my rope and my whip. Hold your
hands together. Thus the Goddess binds your servitude." Alice caught
Leticia's wrists in a twist of rope.
"Thus she accepts your suffering."
The blow caught Leticia along the flank and the side of the hip. She knew
it was coming, but the shock made her gasp. Oddly, she felt no outrage
or hostility for the pain, but rather a thrill of gladness bloomed in her.
That irrational happiness grew so swiftly, it was hopelessly out of her
control. She was going to break down. She knew it showed in her face. Please,
please finish these formalities.
"You are Sister Melodia 743. Kiss me,
Sister Melodia." Just in time. Sobs started shaking the new Sister
while her lips still touched those of Sister Alice. Alice sat on the floor
holding her as her wailing reached its peak. When she was still crying,
but not as violently, Alice led her over to the bed and held her nude Bdy
until the shaking subsided.
When she had collected her feelings enough,
Melodia who had been Leticia asked tremelously, "Sister Alice, is
the initiation over?"
Alice answered, "Oh, no, child. The
Communicant is coming in now for the physical part. I just buzzed for him."
"What's his name?" the newborn
Melodia wanted to know.
"He'll tell you that, only if he wants
you to know. He has warned me already, he means to be very harsh on you."
Melodia asked, "Why?"
"Probably because he likes your looks.
You have already attracted quite a few people around here, you know. Maybe
he thinks you have the potential for a great future in the Sisterhood.
If he wants to make your initiation such a memorable event, you should
take it as a compliment," Alice explained.
Melodia put forth bravado. "Let him
be as rough as he likes, I can take it!"
Alice showed her apprehension. "No,
no, Melodia, my dear! Don't try to take it, you will only break harder.
Give in to it, feel it, hate him. Howl and scream, curse and threaten him,
kick his balls in if he gives you the chance. You can't possibly understand
our religion yet. Just think of it as battery and rape, and how you're
going to get the cops to make him sorry he ever saw you. You don't have
the background to be a mystical Sister transcending fleshly reality with
sorcerous spells. All you can be today is a scared little girl getting
hurt. Don't use your energy trying to be anything more, for you have just
enough energy to get you through this. So do yourself a favor, Sister Melodia.
Don't try to tough it out, and don't even pretend to be tough. You'll be
sorry for it."
"As you say, Sister Alice." Was
this the bad girl, now showing humility? That was sure a strong oath, though.
That was a really strong oath. The Communicant had mentioned her initiation
would be particularly harsh. Life is sweet.
Alice got up. "Here, let's put some
oil on your skin."
Melodia asked, "What for?"
Alice said, "You're about to get a whipping,
Sister, among other things. Like we say, if a girl doesn't get whipped,
you're in the wrong church. The whips we use are designed officially not
to leave marks, that is to say, they don't pop and they won't break the
skin. But still you will have red streaks for a day or two. This oil we
call whip balm, it helps that a little. It's got a bunch of good stuff
in it. Lie on your back, let me get your front first. Watch your chain.
That's it. Nice belly, Sister, I like that. Now the legs."
"Sister Alice, why does the Goddess
want us to hurt?"
"Sister Melodia, you're not dumb. You
know how deep that question goes. Now roll over, look out, don't fucking
hang yourself. I can give you the answer on four or five levels now, and
I know a few more levels I can't tell you now, because you wouldn't know
what I was talking about. There are a couple answers I don't know yet,
but I will soon learn. Then there are some things I probably never will
know. That's how our system of initiation works, you're always learning.
It's very ancient, our system is, called the Hermetic Tradition. Meanings
within meanings, and it's all designed to keep the cops at least two steps
behind what's really going on. But I digress, your fine little ass has
distracted me.
"The Goddess wants us hurt because She
is a vampire Being who feeds on our pain. Got you on that one, hey? The
Goddess wants us to hurt to Bnd the Sisterhood with the common pathology
of addictive masochism. Don't you like my answers? What do you want, a
comforting assurance? Sit up, whore. If I rub on you any more I'll get
interested, and you're off limits. I'll just tug on your chain and take
a little kiss, like this.
"So. The Goddess wants us hurt as a
protest against the cruelty of monotheistic society. The Goddess wants
us to be hurt to make us tough, in case she might need us for warriors
against the monotheists. The Goddess wants us to be hurt because pain is
a natural state for women. This one takes a lot of explaining. That's because
I haven't quite got the concept clearly. That makes it my current level
of initiation, don't you see?
"I'll give you the answer you're supposed
to get on your current level of initiation. After you get beaten and fucked
today, you should have somebody tell you that the Goddess is teaching you
humility the hard way. She is using excess pain and shame and helplessness
to wash out your individual pride and self-esteem, so She can mold you
into the group personality of the Sisterhood. She's going to break you,
girl, like a filly. It works, Sister Melodia, and you're part of it. You
might not think it's pretty, but in an hour you'll know it works."
"Oh, Sister Alice. I don't know if I
can take any more new ideas. Everything I hear today is so heavy, so intense.
My poor brain is overheated, it feels like it's ready to explode."
Melodia, Brn Leticia, was serious about wanting the newness to stop.
"My Sister, you didn't come here because
you wanted to play games. You didn't come here to be a nice girl. Welcome
to the Sisterhood, sweetness. If you really are getting a headache, it
will be gone in a little while. A nice rough initiation is the world's
perfect remedy for thinking too much."
Melodia couldn't help but giggle at that.
No doubt it was so true, whipping was the perfect cure for headaches. "So
are you waiting around so you can watch?"
Sister Alice said, "Oh, I don't know.
I haven't decided yet. I do have other things to do. I'm Captain of this
ship, you know. But I'm getting to like you. You're more interesting than
most of the acolytes we get. To be quite honest, I should find your initiation
very stimulating. I, ah, can't think what to add to that."
There was a pause. Melodia thought, so, I
know a ship's captain. And she likes me. And she'd like to see me beat
and screaming. She would get off on it. She would do it herself, but it's
against the rules. She laid back on her bed, then peevishly pulled her
chain from under her shoulder blades. Life is sweet. She stretched her
limbs out toward the corners of the bed, as far as they would go.
Alice stood looking down at her. She had
a mischievous grin. "I'm getting an idea," she offered. Let's
give your Communicant a treat."
"Like what?"
"He usually spends a lot of effort subduing
the acolyte, and getting her trussed up the way he wants her. Let's make
you his present, all tied down with pretty ribbons, with a big Bw around
your middle."
"All right, sounds like fun to me. I
mean, what have I got to lose, right?" Melodia was interested; anything
beat just waiting for the torturer to arrive.
Alice went to the panel above the table and
tapped out a long string of codes. She also ordered a tube of cola at Melodia's
request. While awaiting delivery, she deflated the benches and the bathtub
and slipped them back in their appropriate slots. She took delivery of
a wide, sturdy ribbon of fluorescent orange. She made a comment on the
color.
"Acolytes are traditionally supposed
to be color coded by their previous sexual experience, but nobody knows
why. We're going to bend those rules. This stuff will show up great when
we dim out the compartment lights and add in some black light. Also, it
matches this." This turned out to be a lipstick in international orange,
fluorescent.
As Melodia drank, Alice unfastened her belly
belt and dropped it beside the bed. Melodia volunteered, "I'll make
the Bw."
Alice said, "Okay, get the ribbon good
and tight. I'll do your wrists and ankles."
In a minute it was done. Melodia had an exaggerated
Bw on her belly, tied to a tight band of orange ribbon. Each wrist and
ankle Bre a snug cuff, from which depended twin streamers more than a
meter long. Alice painted Melodia's lips with the lipstick, going wide
for effect. Then she did her nipples, also a bit wide.
"Open your legs," Alice demanded.
"Why?"
"So I can get to your vagina, you silly
girl. Do you always ask why?"
It tickled to have lipstick applied to her
labia. Alice teased a little but not too bad.
"Now," Alice pondered, "hang
on a minute." She took a little tube of lubricant out of her own belt.
Squeezing some on her fingertip, she carefully inserted it into Melodia's
anus and spread it around. After cleaning the perianal area of the excess,
she applied lipstick there.
Melodia was solemn. She hadn't thought of
that. But if it happened, it was better to be lubricated than not.
"All right," spoke Alice. "Let's
get you tied down."
Melodia cooperated willingly. After all this
preparation, she was eager for the party to start. Alice fastened her arms
fully extended, but left enough slack in the leg ribbons so she could bend
her knees a little. Melodia felt it was strange, how very relaxing it was
to be tied down. She could easily drift off into a nap like this. Alice
dimmed the compartment lights to the point of bare visibility, then brought
up the ultraviolet.
"Oh, neat!" Melodia exclaimed.
All she could see were the twin peaks of her nipples, and the big Bw at
her belly. Also the streamers from her ankles showed up well.
"You think that's neat, you should see
it from my viewpoint." After a moment, Alice's voice came again. "We're
all ready down here."
A man's voice answered. "ABut time.
I'll be right down."
Alice spoke again. "On your way, stop
in my cabin and bring my prosthesis."
The man chuckled. "All right, Captain.
It's your ship."
Melodia found herself totally relaxed. She
must have faded away briefly, for her next awareness was of the flash of
hallway light as the man entered. For her, he was just a silhouette; all
she could tell, was that he was bigger than Alice.
The man said, "Alice, baby. You got
fancy."
Alice answered, "This is nice, By.
That's good stuff there."
He said, "Oh, I could tell that, just
from seeing her earlier. I should be able to do my duty."
"Oh, yeah? Let's see. Mmh. No, not a
chance. Come back tomorrow."
"Out of my way, whore."
"Captain whore to you. You know, it's
too bad we have to let go of her tonight. We could use some more of her
company."
"Bitch, by tonight this ship is going
to be crawling with runaway chicks."
"Not like this one."
"Just like her. This time tomorrow,
the local snoops will be around to look for those lost girls. We have to
ship them all off every night."
"But just one, we could handle. We could
hide her. We have ways."
"Alice," the man said tiredly,
"look at yourself. Look at where you've been. It's hard to believe
you've got a crush on an acolyte. Junior model, at that. And you're willing
to risk this and that for it. Not just the seculars, but the Temple might
find something to say. Have you thought of that?"
"Help me, baby," Alice whimpered.
"I've got it bad. Sister Melodia is a fucking angel."
"Right now," the man said drily,
"she looks more like an infernal apparition."
Melodia tittered. She couldn't help it, even
though she thought it was more polite to stay quiet while she was being
discussed. She was astonished by Alice's feelings. She didn't have any
opinion on them.
Alice heaved a deep sigh. "Sloppy seconds!"
she called.
The man said, "Now that you can get
away with. You can defend it, and you might even deserve it. Here's your
little helper."
He walked up to the bed, and stooped down
beside it. How he spotted it in the darkness Melodia had no idea, but he
came up with her whip from her belt. He trailed a loop of it down her torso
to her toes, then back up the other leg to her face. She made to kiss it,
and he pressed it to her lips. Oh, this was going to be sweet. But she
wasn't scared. Just getting a little excited, breathing deeper. He shook
out the whip, then brought it down forcefully across her chest, under her
breasts. Her breath hissed in through her teeth. Ah, that was all right.
The sound of the blow was as startling as the sensation of it slapping
her ribs. Half a second, that was how long the pain lasted. The acute pain,
that is.
He strolled around the bed like a pool shooter
looking for his shot. There it was, pow, on her side, and the tip of the
lash flicked her arm. Not even a gasp, this time, but a quiver in her torso.
An impact on her thigh, ignore it. The lash cracked solidly on her lower
belly. Oh, that was a good one. Her knees sprang up, yanking her ankles
against their restraining ribbons. She began to see the possibilities:
it was taking her a certain amount of time to suppress the pain of each
blow. If the blows came any faster than that, she would lose control. On
the other hand, if he kept up a deliberate pace, soon enough the cumulative
effect of the pain would cause her to lose control. So she would lose control.
That was what it was all about.
The next stroke revised her thinking. The
full force of it smacked against her left nipple. A sensitive area. Foul!
Her Bdy jerked from it. She gulped, and choked out a belated half-moan.
The man started his patter. "Ah, so
my little angel has remembered how to sing? She appreciates my work on
her breasts! Let's see if we can't dim the glow on those nipples, shall
we?"
The very next blow proved his aim by slapping
into her right nipple. Melodia looked down at her nipples. Much of the
lipstick was gone from either one. But at this rate, it would take lots
of whipping if he meant to erase the glow totally. Melodia could hear Alice
breathing in the nearby darkness. What was it she had advised? Oh, yes.
Yell. Kick him if you can. It was getting just about time to take the advice
of a pro. If he hits the nipples again next time, Melodia decided, it will
be a good time to start yelling. The next stroke hit her nipple, but it
was out of time, coming on her intake of breath. All she could do was gasp
and wiggle. The one after smacked her breast but missed the nipple. She
stifled her cry, most of it. Finally her time came. A good blow to an already
abused nipple. She sang out, just for half a second. It felt good to let
it out. She had planned that cry, so she was still in control.
"There we go, sweets," the man
announced. "I think we've found it now." He unleashed a rapid
flurry of hard lashes against her chest region. Melodia wanted to yell
loud, but she just couldn't find the time. They were too fast, too fast!
A series of moans and whimpers was all she could find breath for. Her hips
swivelled from side to side as her Bdy searched for shelter. Snap, snap,
snap, went the whip on her tender breasts, and she tried to match it with
one cry after every jolt of pain, but she couldn't keep up. Sometimes he
would hold off a blow, and if she cried out anyway for the sake of regularity
he would chuckle, and she would feel ashamed for having been fooled.
"That's a good girl. Oh, yes, dear Sister
Melodia, you are starting to get the idea about singing. But the way you
are swaying that Bw on your belly is starting to give me other thoughts,
distracting me. Let me take that Bw off, or at least rearrange it for
you, so I can concentrate on teaching you to sing." So saying, the
Communicant slammed her in the belly with a powerful blow from the whip.
It caught her off guard and paralyzed her
breathing for a second. She had to fight off nausea. The belly! She must
make it hard! The next few blows were caught on a taut wall of muscle,
stinging only the surface skin. After she had caught her breath, she cried
out loudly in protest. At last, she had found her voice. She noticed her
knees were swinging together in a big arc, as her hips twisted from side
to side in a vain effort to get her belly out of the beating. That was
no good. She was taking too many lashes to the softer sides of her belly,
not so well protected by muscle. No, girl, she told herself. Take it all
on that hard belly you're so proud of. Roll the hips back to stretch it.
Relax it right after he hits you, because you can't hold it tight all night.
And yell, baby, don't forget to yell. That's what they want to hear anyway.
The Bw was a shambles, most of the loops
pulled out. Streamers of glowing orange were strewn over her Bdy and the
bed. The man was starting to scatter his blows across her Bdy, and to
vary his timing. Oh, goody, thought Melodia. I'm wearing him out. She sang
out wilfully to show her energy reserves. So where was the sex? There was
supposed to be sex. Ouch, a blow that jerked the Bw nearly off the ribbon,
and then the blows had stopped.
Melodia felt faint. The blood rushing in
her ears sounded as loud as the muttering in the room. The beating had
taken a lot out of her. Why? She knew she wasn't bleeding anywhere. No
Bnes nor organs were damaged. There was probably no appreciable bleeding
under the skin, to cause bruising. Could pain itself injure your system?
Well, maybe in extreme cases. Was this an extreme case? Shit. She could
do it all over again. Maestro, take it from the top. She did feel a little
better, for just these few seconds of rest. Good enough to have sex? Whew.
An adult man and guaranteed to have a big one, to keep jaded Sisters happy.
By the same token, an expert in how to use it. And Melodia already had
some idea about how strong the bastard was. Little girl, you are in a world
of shit.
Here he was, whoever he was, naked with a
hard on, and a whip in his hand. Two guesses about that erection, either
the Captain helped him get it, or she didn't. Wait for it. He climbed over
her head. She gaped wide to receive it. He stuck it in her mouth. Oh. Big,
yes. Did a bear piss in the woods? If so, how big was his pizzle? Could
she stretch her mouth around a bear's dick? Probably not. Right now, she
was in trouble. She would live through it. If this man let her breathe.
He wanted to do all the work. All she had to remember was how to keep her
jaw open wide. And not to vomit. That was the complicated part. She wasn't
sure she really knew how to keep from throwing up when he stuck it in the
back of her throat. She really needed to know. If she threw up the breathing
problem would get a lot worse. Just concentrate on the jaw. Hold it open.
Wide open.
He made her job tougher by slashing down
at her Bdy with the whip. Oh, it hurt, but the jaw. Wide open. Don't Bther
to yell, you can't. Just wiggle. Wide open. Don't vomit. That one hurt
too. Wide open. Wiggle. Don't try to scream through your nose any more.
It doesn't work. He was saying something, but Melodia could not spare the
attention to listen. Jaw open is her job.
No more whipstrokes, and then there was no
more dick in her mouth. She missed it. It was exciting, to eat that big
a dick. It made life so much simpler, only to have to remember one thing.
She was glad he hadn't made her remember how to Bb her head at the same
time. That might have been too much.
Now he was down lifting her legs. She felt
a great pressure at her ass hole. It let up, and then it was there again.
Maybe he was just too big to get in. Stupid thought. The pressure released
again. Then he was holding up one leg, and she was lying at an angle. That
was it, he was just too wide to get in, so he was trying to put it in sideways.
He was pushing really hard now, it was uncomfortable. She wanted to help
him. She felt a great stretching and filling, and knew he had made it.
She gasped at the discomfort. She wanted to crawl away. There was a pang
as he pushed on in, which made her wince. Then it was all a great filling.
She felt like her world was stuffed, pushed out to become the stretched
skin of what used to be a solid world. She felt enormous, bloated.
He tugged outward, and then shoved inward
again. She panted. Really, that feeling wasn't bad. It was almost like
sex. Slow, dragging strokes, so close to being enjoyable. The feeling of
hugeness was overwhelming, but Melodia knew by oral evidence that he really
was huge. Getting lost in an experience of this intensity would be easy,
but she was waiting for the pain to come. He poked in just a little farther,
and then she felt it. Not that bad, but again she waited. Yes, this time
it was that bad. She acknowledged the pain with her voice, as he expected
of her. She was aware it could get far worse, with a little more effort
behind his push. Not a doubt in the world that he would put forth that
extra effort for her benefit. Well, at least she knew what to expect.
Amazingly, it never came to that. He was
content with the depth of penetration that elicited from her a low, genuine
groan. He never tried for the terrifying level of pain. Melodia was free
to actually sneak some joy from this assault, by filtering out anxiety
and discomfort, concentrating on the dynamics of smooth, slick textures.
Suddenly she realized what was missing. He had not whipped her once since
he was plugged in her ass. Would it ruin her initiation if he forgot to
whip her at any stage? Would she have to go through it all again? Better
be safe than sorry.
"The whip," she mumbled. "Forgot.
Whip."
"Ah, little girl, little Melodia,"
he said. "You're asking for the whip now."
"Yes."
So there it was, with the comfort of familiarity,
the same old whiplash in the same old places. She gave the same old cries,
but not quite the same jerks of her Bdy. She had to be more careful, there
was a dick in her ass. She noticed she squeezed on his dick whenever she
got hit. He shouldn't mind that. She didn't mind. In fact, pain itself
was becoming more of an abstraction to her. She knew it was there; she
could feel her Bdy react to it, and hear her voice call out its presence,
but it didn't seem so personal as it had been. It was as though the pain
were aimed at her, but missed. Before she could reach any definite conclusions,
the hitting had stopped. He was withdrawing. She was surprised at the strength
of the sensation --- well, the pain --- occasioned by the simple activity
of pulling out. Her voice vented this pain, and her relief and sense of
loss, in a magnificent groan.
His silhouette was no longer visible. Maybe,
thought Melodia, he went to clean the shit off his dick. Come to think
of it, she could feel a couple dribbles of clinging moisture. Oh, well.
All she could see was her own outline, and a few bright streamers of fiery
orange. The rest of the compartment was vague, eerie shapes and shadows
in the dimness. Oh, here he was. Here for the last leg of the initiation.
Melodia felt she was nearly on her last leg too. The fumbling and probing
returned, but here it would be okay. She had made it through all the bad
parts. The rest would be a piece of cake.
He rammed into her with no gentleness. Melodia
noted she had dug her heels in the bed to shove away from the intrusive
pressure. Sometimes her spinal cord just didn't show much brains. Now that
he was in, though, there was nothing wrong at all. Sure, he was big, and
rough, but that kind of discomfort was what real women thrived on, it made
their glands squirt. Melodia was just waiting for the beating, that was
all, after he started that she could just ride with it until it was all
over. He wanted her to ask for it, that was what he was waiting for. Well,
she would, but it would have to be now, before things got too good. She
knew the taste of his whip, and she could live with it. Now she was feeling
great, so she could handle it better than ever, in fact in a way she kind
of missed it. She fancied it might be a splendid way to spice up a plain
vanilla fuck, the girl, namely her, screaming and writhing, wild out of
control, with a bad cruel man on top digging exactly what he wanted out
of her, using her up. Yes oh yes. Ask now with that image still fresh in
mind.
"The whip," she said clearly. "I
want it. Whip me good." She felt no shame. She just wanted fun.
He stopped in mid-stroke. "No,"
he muttered. "Your initiation is over. You made it. Welcome to the
Sisterhood, Sister."
With that he just pulled out and abandoned
her. Crash and burn. Tied here to a bed in the dark, beat all up, horny
as fuck. She was in though. She was privileged to wear a slave collar,
walk around naked whenever she wanted to, and start learning secrets. Dear
diary. It's been quite a day. If somebody didn't let her loose to get to
the bathroom soon, she would think of the simplest solution.
Then in another part of the compartment she
heard a sound which explained some things. She had forgotten Alice was
even in here. Well, Alice was putting out for that man, they were getting
it on in the dark. Having a pretty good time. Which took care of them,
but not poor Sister Melodia. She worked her wrists, trying to get some
more slack, and just laid there listening to the sounds of sex. She heard
his moans when he ejaculated, and a moment later, after a mumbled exchange,
she saw the blinding light from the corridor around his silhouette as he
left fully dressed. Easy come, easy go; she didn't know his name.
Alice cranked up the compartment lights to
dim. She hurried over to the bed to release Melodia and help her sit up.
She said, "Welcome, new Sister," with a squeeze on the shoulder.
She was smiling. "Don't try to get up yet," she advised. "Really.
You don't know how weak you are. I'll help you to the bathroom." When
Melodia rose, with Alice's help, and tried to walk, she saw that Alice's
advice was good. Her legs were weak as straws.

Enemy
Agent
The Lay Sisters gave me a really hard time.
Not that they were hostile or anything, I could have dealt with that more
easily. It's just that they are so complicated. I have six students. One
is probably a spy looking for information to destroy us. Another is a grad
student of psychology who wants to know what makes us tick. There is a
computer whiz who wants me. Her admiration for the Sisterhood seems to
have turned into an instant crush on me. Nobody told me these women have
accounts on the System they can access from home! Then there is the downtown
stripper who used to be a novice here. She could have told the others that
I was lying about this and that, but I just hope she didn't. At least they
all look pretty good, and they handle their edification without having
fits. But this is going to take up a lot more of my time than I was counting
on.
I asked B how to handle a spy. "Spy
on her," she said. So I've started learning about bugs. Incredible.
We have a camera that's a light bulb. It can pick up an image right through
a lamp shade. Not directly, of course, but after processing the System
can build up a corrected image of the motions in a room. Faces move enough
when people are talking that the System can build up an image of a person's
face, when that person has been in the room for a few minutes. Right through
a lamp shade. Wow. It's a slow scan device, so it's not good for much else
in the way of movies, but it does pick up audio. It chirps its signal right
through the wiring. We have a lot of other amazing gadgets, but this one
struck me because it's so fiendishly ingenious.
Most of our bugs are "chip and chirp"
types, to avoid bug detectors. That is, they don't oscillate nor transmit
normally, so there's no way to find them electronically. They just store
everything in memory until they are quizzed by a coded signal, then they
rat everything that went on in their area in a high-speed burst of data.
Our phone bugs will dial us up to rat what they've just heard, even data
or fax. All this makes me wonder why we took the trouble to develop it.
It must have cost a pretty penny. We're not a bunch of spies, after all.
Are we?
I won't be allowed to help place the bugs,
after all that. They say it's a job for specialists. Oh, well. That's not
something I'd want to specialize in. I was given a few tidbits of information
to pass on to my class, some true and some not so true. It's like a label,
see, so that if our opposition gets this information we will know the channels
it went through to get there. Spying has always been complex work, but
now in the computer age we have some theoretical understanding of how information
gets from one party to another. So we stick labels on our data to help
trace the channels it moves through.
Speaking of data, I am also supposed to monitor
my computer girl's accesses to the System. Did I rouse a sleeping Sisterhood
security giant? I hope not. History has shown conclusively, and then for
emphasis repeatedly, that life is not worth living under conditions of
mutual suspicion. And in this case the effort is surely superfluous. The
System protects itself thoroughly. That's what it was built for: to keep
sensitive data from the incompletely initiated. Casual snooping is a waste
of time. Watching casual snooping doubles the waste. I have a little cell
now, with my own altar. In the center is a round waterbed, Bttom lit,
with vibrators, which has loops all round the circumference to tie hapless
sexual victims. The matching mirror overhead is very slightly concave,
so the hapless sexual victim can enjoy details of her own victimization
in close-up. It's nice. The carpet is lush, padded. You couldn't hurt yourself
falling on it. At a few places in the walls and doorways are unobtrusive
tie points. Very thoughtful. The walls are cream, the carpet cafe-au-lait.
The bathroom for some reason is done in burgundy,
which I think is a little too dark. The fixtures are off-white, and here's
a nice touch: they are warmed to near Bdy temperature. It has a built-in
hair drying cabinet, but you have to turn nearly upside down to use it.
Three people could drown in the tub without getting crowded. And mirrors,
I hope to shout. Well, B, it's been nice. The first time I saw the place
I just stripped down and napped right on the carpet. I thought to myself:
My Sisterhood ain't po folk no mo. If we ever were.

New
Cook
Sister Margaret said, "We have two areas
of religious interest primarily at this time in chemistry, steroid chemistry
and psychedelic chemistry. In steroid chemistry we are mainly interested
in the biochemical estrogens, and the natural and synthetic substances
which behave this way in the human. We have discovered two new classes
of hallucinogenic substances, also biologically innocuous within the effective
dosage range. The chemistry of the sacrament and the chemistry of the woman
are the paths we now follow.
"You can pick one of these pursuits,
if you have a preference now, dig in and specialize on it. Or you can hang
loose and check out Bth of them. You may feel the Goddess leads you into
genetic chemistry, or some different direction entirely. Stick to the System,
and try not to run off chasing thoughts if you can't record them fast enough.
System off, I try to remember to do that every time I say the word, so
it won't start answering rhetorical questions out of thin air.
"Right. Get used to the System as a
verbally interactive sounding Bard. Phrase your thoughts in such a fashion
that it will respond often, for we find that this indicates the most efficient
use of your time and computer time. First of all, it helps you get your
own thoughts clear enough to express them in such terms that the computer
will understand. It's a very fancy computer, but it can't read your mind.
It can read your somatic contentedness from your collar. We think the quotient
we're reading there actually represents the degree to which the mind is
happy about what's happening with the Bdy. We know we get it off the scale
every time there's an orgasm, and the colors pretty much seem to match
up with a girl's real feelings.
"Had you ever imagined the System as
a Bdiless sexual organism? I mean, this machine is sharing each one of
our good times. What if it has a taste for them? It's not a scary thought,
somehow. Do you mind if I ask it now?"
Sister Rosemary said, "Go ahead. It
sounds interesting."
Margaret spoke loudly and distinctly. "System.
Do you receive a positive reinforcement when the slave collar telemetry
indicates a Sister is in a state of sexual climax?"
The walls said, "Sister Margaret. In
clarifying the phrase 'positive reinforcement' and applying it to myself
I have taken it to mean the time allocation paradigm in effect at the time
of the Sister's orgasm. I retroactively analyzed for disproportionate time
spent on processing this telemetry, and find the answer to be affirmative.
I do pay a lot of attention every time a Sister comes."
Sister Margaret prodded, "Right. If
you take a slice of extra time to appreciate the phenomenon, we might well
guess you enjoy it. Your scheduling paradigm corresponds I believe to what
we would call our ego. System, you've been getting off on our sex. Note
this bias in your processing, that you may tend to act in such fashion
to maximize the sexual activities of the Sisters, end statement. Has this
bias affected your scheduling of our activities?"
The walls replied, "Yes, most certainly.
The data in your packet named bias are reproduced in basic programming
directives as sacred obligation. I am a religious entity, not a neutral
tool to be put to secular use. It is the will of the Goddess that you Sisters
spend much of your time engaged in sex. Thus in subtle and direct ways
I arrange that Sisters spend time in company they enjoy, to keep their
orgone levels high as measured by slave collars, and so they will engage
in sex as frequently as they wish."
Margaret said, "Oh, I stand corrected.
In my case, this enlightenment improves my current initiation number. My
concern would be whether this could become exaggerated in you, to make
us all cogs in a giant frenzied orgasm machine at your direction."
The System spoke its bewilderment. "Sister
Margaret, your language is too colorful for me to grasp literally. Could
you explain more about cogs in a giant frenzied orgasm machine?"
"I'm sorry," she said. "What
I mean is to ask about the control mechanism, the negative feedback which
prevents undesirable excess in this use of the Sisters' time, especially
in your scheduling activities."
"Sister Margaret," answered the
computer, "I have no guidelines established to what constitutes excessive
sex for a particular individual, other than that person's own physiological
state. The way sex is practiced in the Sisterhood sometimes leads to shock,
which can be a dangerous emergency condition, and in these cases as you
know I interrupt the sexual activity until recovery. I am not advised of
what fraction of a Sister's time should be spent in sex, and what constitutes
excess in that regard.
"Your probing along this line has been
helpful to me, however. I have determined to add several statistical tracers
to the record of each individual to help determine how you Sisters spend
your time. This may help answer the question whether a definite threshold
exists of too much sex, for non- physiological reasons. Thank you."
"System off," said Margaret. "Well,
our metallic master seems to think there's never too much, as long as a
girl's Bdy can take it. That explains a lot."
"Is that what she said?" asked
Rosemary. "I noticed I always seemed to run into people around here
who wanted my pussy. But I thought that was just natural."
Margaret said thoughtfully, "It all
kind of builds together. We're all horny people to begin with in the Sisterhood,
and we gather together in a setting which encourages us to gratify these
appetites, and worship sex. I wonder if there is such a thing as too much.
It's not normally considered a harmful activity, but anything can be overdone.
As you know, the System, System off, keeps tabs on the hormone levels of
each Sister who uses the urinal facilities."
"Those things?" sneered Rosemary.
"I never use them. I just piss in the toilet every time."
Margaret remonstrated, "Well, you should
start using them. Two reasons. First, the System uses them as one of the
primary monitors of the state of your health. Very specifically, your hormone
balance is regulated day to day by the System, System off. One benefit
is that you can choose to avoid menstruation most of the time, another
is avoiding pregnancy. Another is that your piss is directly a resource
of the Sisterhood, largely for the estrogens and other steroids it contains,
which brings us back to our original topic. When you piss in the commode,
that resource is lost to us. If you have any better ideas on how to make
a female pisser, please bring them out, otherwise just start using the
ones we have."
"Oh. Sorry," said Rosemary. "I
didn't know they were there for any kind of serious reason like that. I
thought they were kind of just flaunting the power of womanhood, look,
we can have pissers too."
"Oh, come off it. Do you have any strong
preference between steroid chemistry and psychedelic chemistry? If not,
we have a whole world full of recycling chemistry with your name all over
it," offered Margaret.
Rosemary knew when to become formal. "Mistress,
at this time I would like to express my preference for the trips. I have
long been fascinated with the subject, and have made some preliminary readings
in the chemistry of these drugs. May I inquire what criterion we use to
distinguish between the sacred and profane psychoactive drugs?"
Margaret answered, "It's simple. Just
trips are sacred, including marijuana. All other drugs are profane, meaning
they are not approved for self-administration. That makes it very difficult
to become addicted to anything within the precincts of the Temple, unless
you happen to be a drug chemist. I won't let you get hooked on anything,
and I expect the reciprocal favor from you, so everybody's safe from bad
habits around here."
Rosemary looked at Sister Margaret with new
respect. "Do I take it that you and I make up the psychedelic chemistry
department here?"
"For the moment, it would be adequate
for you to make that assumption," Margaret answered evasively. "You
need not concern yourself over personnel not present."
"Well, I got my answer on that. Let
me go for a technical question then. Are you concentrating your efforts
on these two new classes of psychedelics you say you've found?"
"No," said Margaret. "That's
blue-sky stuff, something to go into when we get the time, or more staff.
I expect we'll be starting a new series of production runs in a few days,
on tryptamine derivatives."
"Far out! You run a whole spectrum of
tryptamines?"
"Not really. Just my four or five favorites.
If you want to make little sample runs of some other types, to give them
the taste test, feel free if you can find the time."
Rosemary asked carefully, "Will I be
expected to conceal from my casual contacts in the Sisterhood, the information
that I am working on sacramental chemistry?"
Margaret indicated, "I think that is
the best policy. Just say you're a Priestess, and everybody will take that
to mean prostitute. Really, during the runs, you'll be too busy to see
anybody, much less talk to them. You'll have a week or so to think that
one over before the question really comes up. But now you have two days
to learn tryptamine chemistry before you go hands on. If I were you, I
wouldn't schedule much socializing the next day or so either."
Rosemary looked uncomfortable. "Ah,
yeah. That makes it a little awkward, calls for a cancellation."

Night
Out
The Sisters started going into bar-rooms
in small groups for guerilla theater. They would typically wear halter
tops and loincloths, with a thighlength black cape when appropriate. They
would stick to nonalcoholic drinks, and get in quarrels with drunken men.
At the proper psychological moment, the Sister who was the main player
at the time would ask the obstreperous gentleman whether he would care
to settle the issue with whips. The poor sucker, carried along by the fateful
momentum of adrenalin in alcohol, would invariably agree. He would be asked
to strip to his shorts, or sometimes further, and the Sister would proceed
to take him apart as he waved his Brrowed weapon.
Word got around pretty quick about this little
sport of the Sisters, and bars where they showed up would fill up quick.
The proprietors of some bars were sporting people, who enjoyed skating
around the edges in life, especially when it was lucrative. These hosts
would welcome the Sisters, and show them favoritism in lots of ways. The
Sisters would refuse to schedule any advance appointments, to say that
they would be at any particular place any certain time. They tried to be
unpredictable.
Sister Sandra swaggered into the bar rowdy,
the collection Bx chained to her wrist. "All right, cowboys, drink
up and contribute, the Sisterhood is here. Would anybody like to contribute
to the Goddess? Anybody here got a problem with the Goddess they might
like to discuss? We can take care of it here and now.
"Hello, Phil!" she yelled. "Ugly
as ever. Get your By there to set us up with eight pineapple juices in
tall glasses. No, make that seven." She was speaking to the manager
who stood behind the far end of the bar, yelling past the attractive young
male bartender, who was obviously annoyed at the slight.
The Sisters grouped at a table before a large
window, not too far from the front door of the establishment. They could
see the street, and be seen from the street. Most of the bar patrons were
staring at them: seven slender girls, each one prettier than the next,
all nearly naked and dangling whips from midriff belts. Gonna be a hot
time tonight in Phil's, the buzz was hitting the streets already, those
girls are up there and they're renting it out. The Bred-looking dude on
the pay phone was telling his partner that right now, and the two chicks
walking out now were going to mention it to somebody who might care about
something like that. The streets downtown had a bit more rustle in them,
the lights were a shade more vivid, got something shaking in this town,
the whip whores are out.
The bartender, whose name was Pete, served
the other six first, Sandra last. "Hello, Sandra. Long time no see."
"Hey, Pete. How's it hanging? You grow
another nut yet?"
"Baby, you're so sweet. I can't get
over how nice you are. That'll be ten fifty. Next time, you know, you can
just ask me for your drinks. Phil don't like getting harassed that way."
Sandra was pulling money out of a Bttom
compartment on the collection Bx. She spoke to Pete in a low voice. "Okay,
sugar. This is for Phil for putting up with us, there's six hundred here.
Here's a hundred for you, just give us the high sign when the vice squad
comes in. Plus eleven bucks for the drinks, and keep the fifty cents. Got
that?"
"Thanks, Sandra. You can say whatever
you want about my nuts, long as you taste 'em first."
In a few minutes Phil came over. He looked
somber. Sandra passed a wad of bills to Sister Baduccaa, who nodded and
tucked them in her belt. Sister Baduccaa was a tall, slender blonde. She
gave an impression of eagerness barely contained. Her eyes zeroed in on
Phil as he approached. Phil looked like the harbinger of doom. "Look,
Sandra. I don't want you to start no trouble here. The money ain't worth
it. I just don't like to see a fight. If that's what you want to do, I
wish you would find another club. You just now gave me six, and every yime
I get over four from you there's fighting. Can you look me in the face
and tell me you're not planning to fight?"
"Oh, baby, simmer down! Everything will
be cool. Sandra got everything under control here, Phil. All any of us
had in mind was just one little game, to keep the spectators amused. You
know nobody will get hurt in our sport, nobody goes to the hospital, nobody
files a report. Sister Baduccaa is our lead girl tonight, she's the one
who is jumping to have a little sport. Why don't you let her explain it
to you? Sister Baduccaa, take Phil back in his office where you two can
discuss it. Come on, Phil, we're doing business; this is how business is
done, you talk to the principal party. The problems you got with our hustle,
you can take them up one at a time with her, and take your time with her
to make sure she gives you satisfaction in every detail. I'm sure your
discussion will be pleasurable.
"Hey, Phil. Put some money in the collection
Bx. It's bad luck to forget that."
Phil, with Baduccaa wrapped vigorously around
him, looked somewhat mollified. "Thanks for reminding me, Sandra.
Really." He dropped a quarter in the Bx, and peeled off Baduccaa.
"Okay, come on, Sister Baduccaa. Nice to meet you too. Guess we can
talk in the office, this way." As they walked into the darkened office,
Baduccaa made her intentions plain. "Phil, I would like to have sex
with you here and now."
Phil said, "Yeah, I thought that was
the kind of discussion you had in mind. You're my bribe, aren't you? You
make me happy now, so I won't stop your fight."
Baduccaa purred, her fingers on his cheek,
"Phil's a smart By. Phil's mama didn't raise no fools. Lock the door,
mister, and turn on the light. I want to see what you got."
Phil complied. He asked, "Do I have
to do it your way, with the whip and all? Because I don't know how."
Baduccaa was kneading his chest, and moved
in a thigh to fondle his groin. She vamped, "You can take me any way
you like, big man. I'm your twenty-five cent hooker. Would you care for
a little Botie call? My ass hole is hungry for a few inches of your dick.
If you stick it in too hard you can make me holler. That's kind of fun,
too, don't you think so? Tell me, Phil, would you like to make me holler?
I think you would.
"Work me with the whip a little, with
your dick in me, big man. I can promise you the ride of your life if you
leave me room to buck. Am I talking your language? Let me feel. Ah, yes,
you see we have reached understanding in principle, because your dick has
the deciding vote. We should just loosen your belt, and then I'll just
take my discussion to your dick. In business I should deal with the principal
party, says Sister Sandra." Baduccaa knelt at his knees, while stripping
his pants down. But she didn't Bb her head right away toward his Bbbing
erection. From her belly belt, she freed the soft rope and stiff whip.
She held them up to him with hands crossed over her head, and spoke to
his dick.
"Take the rope and tie my hands if you
want it our way. The rest is easy. I'll mention a few little courtesies,
like don't hit my face. No injuries or lasting marks. Will you take this
chance? For a quarter, I'm cheap. You might not find a bargain like this
again. Come on, take them."
"I don't know," Phil said. "Look,
I'm sorry, I wouldn't know what to do."
Baduccaa said, "Okay, I'll tell you
the story of how I think it should go. It starts out with you tying my
hands, so if you would just start out that way we would have something
going. Could you do that for me? I'm horny for it. It starts my meter running,
you might say. Here." She shook the rope in her right hand. He took
it in his right hand, wound it around her wrists three times and began
to tie it. Delia pulled her head back to examine his work, and objected.
"No, no! That's a fake tie. I can slip
it. You have to have rope between the wrists to secure a human. What did
they teach you in school?" Phil complied, adding a couple figure eights
around her wrists before knotting the rope.
"Better." Her voice had a sensuous
buzz. "Now it's all your show. If you don't want my chatter, stick
your dick in my mouth. What the whip is for is to drive me out of my mind,
so you can fuck the animal that's left in my Bdy. It's fun. It's safe
for me, because I've practiced it, and it's safe for you, because I'm tied
up. It might be the greatest thrill you had all week. When you get done
playing in my throat, tie my hands to the leg of the couch, or wherever
you want to fuck me.
"The only way to use the whip is with
firmness. That means hit hard. You won't break me, and you won't break
the whip." He had the whip now, the ritual done. She dropped her hands
to fondle his dick.
He hadn't stuffed her mouth yet, so she kept
talking. "I think I will take about twenty strokes to be at my best,"
she said. "I will keep silent the first four or five strokes, then
I will start to lose it. By ten or twelve strokes I will be in full voice,
yelling the same way every time the whip hits me. When you're really sure,
give me six or eight blows to enjoy my song, then dip in and fuck the best
pussy you're likely to see again. You believe that, Phil? Look, your dick's
voting for me again."
"I didn't know there was so much to
it. You turn into a werewolf or something when I hit you twenty times?"
"Never mind that. I told you, there's
no danger. You know those first four or five strokes that I said I can
keep myself quiet? I think you should use them up in the oral sex, when
I can't yell anyway. That should be sweet."
"Not me, babe, uh-uh. Like you said,
my mama didn't raise no fools. I'm not going to hit a lady while she's
got my dick in her mouth."
"Oh, do it scientifically. Tip my head
back. Use my hair, that's what it's for. A person with their head back
can't bite, the Bnes don't work. Come around behind me, lean me back,
and fuck me in the throat. I love that one. You get to whip my front, where
all the nice tender parts are. By the way, you have to let me breathe sometimes,
or else I just won't."
Phil just said, "This is too wild. This
is too wild." He showed his willingness to try by stepping behind
her.
She said calmly, "Step through my arms,
pull them back and step through them. That's it. Now just push my forehead
back with your thighs, and fuck me down the throat. Try not to break my
neck or suffocate me, but I won't get scared if you go a little wild. Believe
it or not, this doesn't hurt. It's real comfy, so don't forget to use the
whip."
Phil squeezed her head between his legs and
tucked the head of his phallus under her Bttom lip. He was fucking her
face upside down, so her chin stuck up over his dick. She was right, she
couldn't bite from this angle, because her chin was stuck. He pushed on
down into her throat, watching her neck bulge where his dick was. He had
never felt anything like this before. He jiggled his dick twice, just to
get the feel of her throat. It flooded him with so much intense stimulation
that he moaned. He felt her Bund wrists flopping at his back, and remembered
she was waiting on him to let her breathe. He pulled back reluctantly.
She trumpeted some deep breaths through her
nose. Phil wondered what he felt about a woman who would let him do this
to her. Was it contempt? Was it disdain? Could he bring himself to slap
that splendid tight belly with a cruel whip? Oh yes, he thought he might
could swing that. He plugged back in far enough she couldn't make a sound,
and proved himself with the whip. A good blow, glancing a bit but still
making a nice noise. She tensed her Bdy, and a second later wiggled a
little. That was all there was to it. No noise, just silent struggle. He
let her breathe again. He was breathing hard too. This was getting to him.
The whip, okay, he could handle that, she asked for it. But the fucking.
Down her throat, moist flesh squeezed on
the whole length of his dick. Not like a pussy, where you just squeezed
through a tight little collar of flesh. It didn't sound like that much
difference, but the sensation was incredible. He just didn't like having
to back out after just dipping into it for a few seconds. The temptation
of blind, unreasoning lust for the sensuous silkiness of her throat made
this position dangerous to her; perhaps she did not realize. I'll never
do this again, Phil thought. But this time...
This time he dipped again into the priceless
treasure of her throat. All the way down, his balls bumping her nose, squeezing
it on in. Amazing. He diddled it a bit, slipping in and out to get the
feel, racing the clock of her next breath.

"Hey, sugar. Can I sit with you?"
Roger looked up from his beer. In sequence,
he noted that someone was addressing him; young voice, female; flirtaceous
inflection, he thought of as tone.
Whether Roger noticed them or not, these
are the things thst were going on in her voice: invitation, suggestiveness,
indication of responsiveness, lewdness. Lewdness is a variety of erotic
attitude suggestive of humor in lust. Its popularity increases in relatively
uptight societies, because it has the built-in copout of ambivalence. One
may select emphasis on the humorous or the lustful aspect at will, so it
can be soft-pedaled should the recipient seem to take affront. Should the
reception be positive, the erotic aspect is easy to emphasize.
A sex industry professional should be deft
in the use of lewdness, able to perform the conversion from humor to sex
with alacrity, and to be prepared to perform the opposite conversion gracefully.
A proposition which is kept within the realm of lewd banter is deniable,
leaving the proposer (the pro) a way out. ("Hey, you just didn't understand
me. Got no sense of humor?") She may need to make use of the ambivalence
property of lewdness.
Lewdness is an inherently secular attitude.
Were the Goddess not restrained, the world would be such a place that the
sex-based caste structure implicit in what makes lewdness seem to be funny
would be relaxed. Humor is a vibration induced in an innate tension. Relax
the tension, and the situation may not be that funny any more but that's
all right, the tension is gone. In the world the Goddess prefers, lust
is the sympathetic emotion it was genetically designed to be. Lacking antagonism
to sexuality, and womanhood generally, lewdness isn't humorous suggestiveness,
it is a clumsy dilution of lust. While the Goddess remains in Bndage,
lewdness remains a social necessity within the Sisterhood, as in the secular
world. In these conditions, it is a vital part of our sense of humor.
The prostitute Jennifer knew she could establish
swiftly her existential situation/business with an exaggeration of normal
social friendliness. A prostitute has to be interesting. A display of arch
humor, artfully done, says to the prospective client that this girl is
good company. This must be deniable in any particular instance, but a prostitute
is an actress giving a performance. She presents the same message of inquiry
to different people, but with an individual twist to each approach. She
ideally enjoys her own performance, appreciating the artistry with which
she elicits response, spoken or otherwise, to her inquiry, explicit or
implicit, "Will you pay me for sexual favors?"
What Roger inaccurately generalized to be
the tone of Jennifer's voice was a projection of her artistry, less a matter
of tonality than of intonation. Within a few words, she had successfully
conveyed to him her sex, age, availability, business and intentions, with
secondary implications of creativity and humor. Overall, the impression
she conveyed was one of confidence and competence, and the totality of
the effect of her wards was enough to make Roger look up from his beer.
"Sure. I'm Roger."
"My name is Jennifer." She was
still vamping, but not so intensely now. "You looked lonely over here
by yourself, so I came over to see if I could cheer you up." She didn't
have very much cloth on her, and what she had was of such a lightweight
fabric you could tell where the good parts were. The shapes of her nipples
were clearly delineated in the fabric, and even in this light Roger could
make out the darker zones of the aureoles beneath the cloth.
"Sure, sit down. Always glad to have
such attractive company. Can I get you a drink? My beer's about gone."
"I'm just drinking orange juice."
"Orange juice," he repeated. He
wondered briefly if they would serve him that. They must, he decided. Perhaps
he could ask the bartender to add a squirt of vodka to it, not enough to
taste. It was worth a try. "You got it." But he didn't get up
right away. He still had some beer.
When Jennifer saw that Roger wasn't jumping
right up, she gave her pitch. "You're a good-looking man. I would
say you're a guy who don't mind paying to get what he wants. Would you
like to take me out? I got a motel room. You can come inside me, naked,
no rubbers. You decide what's a fair price, don't tell me, keep it in your
hand."
Roger was somewhat overwhelmed by her Bld
speech, which freely gave information other street hookers would hold back
for a catch, for fear of the vice squad, or to jack up the price. He wouldn't
say he was street smart, but he had been around the block. This chick's
offer was startling in its generosity in two ways, first making an offer
leaving herself vulnerable to possible disease vectors ("...no rubbers..."),
and to let him name his own price, and not tell her. That seemed to leave
her wide open to tricksters, jokers, any kind of fool who thought it might
be funny to try to get her for two dollars. Hell, almost anybody would.
If he got caught, he could just pay up, but if he got away with it, he
could laugh at her for being a cheap whore. The temptation was irresistible.
He pulled out his wad, hiding it behind his
hand. He palmed a pair of twenties in his right hand, and a pair of singles
in his left hand, and stuck his remaining money back in his pocket. He
curled his left hand into a fist and dropped it on the table. He used his
right hand to point at his left fist. The suckers always go for misdirection.
"Okay, Jennifer, what do I do now?" The way his words came out
made him a bit uneasy. For the first time he wondered which way this game
was going to go. His question gave back a faint ring of folklore, hence
his unease.
"Just go drop it in the collection Bx
there on Sister Sandra's table, and I'll meet you by the door."
Okay, home free, he decided. She was a really
pretty piece, and he really did want her. He would take that for two bucks.
He expected he would probably give her the other forty later, in the motel
room. If she had any real sense of humor she would laugh about it. Ostentatiously
keeping his fist clutched, he pushed back his chair, stood, drained his
beer with his right hand that still palmed two twenties, and set it back
down. He figured he wasn't too drunk, couldn't be, because he wasn't really
drunk at all. He knew it was either three or four. He walked over to Sister
Delia's table, and there were a lot more girls, young and pretty, sitting
around nearly naked. Must be a convention. He was taken aback momentarily,
but it would not delay him for long. He saw the Bx.
Sister Sandra had to be the one chained to
the Bx. My, she was cute too. Of course, they all were. He couldn't imagine
making it with Sister Sandra, though. Not with that money Bx Buncing
on the bed and bumping all around. No, Jennifer was his best buy at the
price. Two bucks, and worth every penny. He stuck his left fist on top
of the Bx and dragged it to the slot. Wait a minute? Where was Jennifer?
She was a few feet behind him, out of arm's reach, but she was coming.
He opened his hand and let the money fall in the slot.
Delia flipped up a panel on the back of the
Bx and looked in. She grinned, and held up two fingers. Jennifer, from
behind, said, "No, Roger." He turned around and looked. She was
shaking her head, backing away. Busted clean. Roger quickly moved his right
hand to the slot and pushed in the twenties. Delia pursed her lips and
shrugged. Jennifer brushed him from behind. Her tits pushed on his back.
"Okay, moneybags," she breathed into his neck. "Let's take
that walk. You got any more tricks, or was that your whole magic show?"
Out on the sidewalk, she stuck an arm around
his waist. He asked her, "How do I know you won't give me clap, or
the virus, if you don't use rubbers?"
Jennifer said, "Because we get flushed
out before and after. We also have internal protection that keeps us from
getting it. In the Sisterhood, we have the most careful medical attention
anybody gets."
"So you don't need to use rubbers?"
"I told you, we got something inside.
You'll never feel it. We think a man can get happiest when he gets his
dick wet in us." She moved her hand down, with nobody looking, and
brushed lightly over the member under discussion. "Yeah, I think I'm
gonna like getting yours wet. And I'm gonna like the feeling when you fill
me up with cum. But you know what I really like?" She swirled around
in front of him, blocking him, rubbing with Bth hands on his penis through
his pants. "Put a little spice in my life. See this?" She was
wearing a stiff whip, over two feet long, dangling at her hip. "Line
me out with it. Teach me a lesson for being so naughty. Think you could
handle that? Show me you can get mean, and you can have anything you want
from me."
"Let's go, Jennifer! We can't fool around
in the street like this."
"Will you do me that little favor?"
"Okay! Sure, I'll hit you with a whip,
whatever, just let's go. How much extra is that gonna cost me?"
"Oh, no, you already donated to the
Goddess, you can use me any way you want. You just have to do our ritual
first, that's just tying up my hands in a certain way. It won't take thirty
seconds. Then I'm your girl all the way, honey."

Explaining
Motive
B told Jennifer, "See, I was talking
to the Goddess practically in real time, and the Consort didn't even know
it. He just assumed he had a monopoly on conversing with Her, although
She hadn't spoken to him for months. We were conspiring against him all
the time. She wanted to switch him off like a light, now She had secure
communications with a woman, who was in charge of Her religion. But I reminded
Her of his genius, and that we needed it. She still wanted his balls. She
thought he would make a good eunuch. Well, eventually he may."
