shimmering mud puddle was
a few yards away and I braced myself for what I was about to do.
Being a neat freak, drinking only expensive, bottled water had
spoiled me to anything less than what fit my OCD. I made myself
count to ten countless times before I could make myself cup my
hands and drink the putrid liquid. But I did.
After manically gulping a dozen
handfuls, I felt my body recoil in disgust. Next thing I knew, I
was on my knees, vomiting every bit of the fluid I’d greedily
ingested. I have no idea how long the heaves wracked my thin body
before I passed out.
Chapter Three
“What the…”
I awoke to find myself on a bed of
plants. There were walls of moss surrounding me and a musty odor
filled my nostrils.
“Where? How?”
My first thought was that a serial
killer had indeed found me and taken me to his cave in the woods.
Either way, I was going to die.
The only sound I could hear was an
incessant drip from somewhere in the cavern. I sat up, though my
body protested as my head throbbed. Should I scream? Was there
anyone there? I was truly fucked.
Just then, I heard something moving. It
sounded like someone was dragging a wet blanket across the
floor.
A crocodile? A giant snake? Every
warning bell in my body went off. I attempted to jump off of the
slick greenery, only to find my feet were tied, shackled to the
floor with what appeared to be seaweed. I yanked and yanked,
ripping at the slimy strands but it wouldn’t let go! The sloshing
sound grew louder, it was coming for me, but I wasn’t going to stop
trying to escape!
“Fuck this!” I summoned all of my
strength and pulled harder and harder, tears of frustration rolled
down my face. I was so wrapped up in freeing my legs, that I failed
to notice the peripheral noises had stopped.
I smacked at my own legs, pissed and
terrified. When I looked up from my algae shackles, what I saw
would give nightmares to the Devil. Before me stood a creature.
That’s the only way to describe it…him. The Thing stood at least
seven feet tall and from head to toe, it was covered in the same
seaweed type plant that shackled my legs. I couldn’t recognize any
sign of a face in that mass of algae, but it appeared to breathe.
Somehow.
It came toward me, arms…vines
outstretched as if to grab me and I tried to scoot away. Screaming
my head off was the only option at that point.
“What the fuck are you? Stay the hell
away from me!”
Apparently, it didn’t understand
English, because it continued to reach for me. When it touched my
leg, I began to scream even louder and promptly passed
out.
Chapter Four
“Yes!” Someone was lapping at the folds
of my pussy. Their warm, moist tongue darted in and out, suckling
and probing. I was paralyzed in ecstasy as wave after wave of
orgasms hit me. I could feel my juices pour out of me as he eagerly
drank them.
“Fuuuuck, yeah!” I squeezed my nipples
as he probed, tasting my inner core and he brought me to the edge
once again. I knew I must be dreaming. I was a single woman, after
all. But this was by far, the best dream I’d ever had.
Suddenly, the dream changed, I felt
slimy twine wrap around my throat! My eyes popped open to find the
‘thing’ applying pressure as another orgasm slammed into me. I
began to struggle but could not stop my body from betraying me. My
core throbbed and pulsated as the creature licked circles around my
clit.
“Stop! Get off of me!”
The Thing continued, apparently
oblivious to my screams. I tried kicking at it, but my legs were
now splayed apart and still trapped by vinery.
I tried as best I could to smack at the
Thing and it finally backed away, releasing my neck. Now, I could
see it did indeed have eyes. There, looking back at me, were the
most gorgeous green eyes I’d ever seen. Sad, but glorious and
striking.
I felt sorry for this creature. My fear
instantly vanished. Crazy, right? I know. Believe me, I
know.
“I’m…”
The Thing slithered away from me,
