Taming a Tempest
Chapter 1
Tempest looked around the room again. Now there were only two. She looked back at Alaine, the only other occupant of the room and saw her friend staring back at her with terror-filled eyes. What was going on here?
Both women had been immobilized, as had been their four friends. They were gagged and hog-tied with their arms and legs bound together behind their backs. Then, one by one, the women had been taken from the room to who only knew what terrible fate. Now, only Tempest and Alaine were in the room but Tempest feared that they too would eventually be carted away.
Tempest could tell that they were no longer on the ship. The six college friends had planned a mini-reunion and selected a Caribbean cruise for their vacation. Tempest had trouble adjusting to the constant vibrations of the ship and the gentle movement of the floor on her first day at sea but eventually did become accustomed to it. Now, neither of those was present. The floor did not vibrate and it was motionless. She didn't know where they were but she knew that they were on land somewhere.
They were both in their sleep attire, as were the four who had already been taken away. They had partied on the ship the evening before and had gambled in the ship's casino and then they had gone to bed. They were sleeping in three adjoining cabins and all were asleep soon after getting back to their rooms.
Thankfully, Tempest had worn pajamas that night. Poor Alaine had worn a short nightie which had ridden up to bunch around her waist, leaving her completely exposed from there down. Tempest knew that Alaine must be dying of embarrassment.
"Lot number five," she heard a male voice say. "That one over there." Tempest turned her head and saw two men walking toward Alaine. Alaine struggled and tried to shriek around the ball that had been stuffed in her mouth, but it was useless. She couldn't move because of the way she had been trussed up and all that came out of her mouth was muffled grunts and groans. Tempest watched in despair as the men lifted Alaine and carried her from the room. Based on how often the men had been coming, she knew that she only had less than thirty minutes until they returned for her.
The six of them had been very close in college. They were like sisters. They had gone their separate ways since graduation and this reunion was long overdue. Tempest had gone on to law school and, at the age of twenty six, was an attorney in a prestigious law firm for two years already.
In fact, all six of them were twenty six. It was one of the things that they had in common. Another thing in common was that they were each strikingly beautiful, although each in her own way. Tempest had long black hair and a svelte, sylphlike body, adorned by large, firm breasts. Alaine had long red hair that she wore like a curled flowing mane. She was the shortest of the six at five feet two inches and had earned the nickname Leprechaun. Her body, though, was unlike that of any leprechaun. It was an amazing collection of curves and hills and valleys. And, while her breasts were not as large as Tempest's, the 36C orbs looked huge on her small frame.
Elke and Carrie were the two blondes and were both tall. Elke was the Norse goddess of the group. Her long, almost platinum, blonde hair and her statuesque frame made her look like she just stepped out of a Nordic myth. Carrie's broad shoulders and confident look gave her the appearance of an Amazon warrior. Both had well endowed chests.
Kim was the least chesty of the women but, with her slender frame, it worked well for her. Despite having 34B breasts, she was extremely well proportioned. It gave her a streamlined, sleek look that usually had men's heads craning to get a better view of her. And her long auburn hair looked like fine silk.
Tammy had brown hair that she seemed to keep in a perpetual ponytail. Her chest, which was normally a size 36C, had developed in recent months to 38D. She was currently seven months pregnant and had a constant glow about her these days.
They had all chosen different career paths once they left college. Tempest was the lawyer. Alaine was in medical school and had another year until she graduated as a doctor. Kim was an elementary school teacher. Elke was a management consultant. Carrie worked in marketing for a pharmaceutical company. And Tammy worked for a multinational nonprofit, although she planned to take a leave of absence to focus on her upcoming baby.
Tempest struggled against her bindings again, trying to get loose. She knew that it was an exercise in futility. She had tried many times since waking up in this room, hours earlier. But she had to try.
They must have been drugged, thought Tempest. How else could they have all been kidnapped like that? But they all felt fine before they went to bed. Maybe they had been drugged while they were sleeping. But how had the kidnappers smuggled them off the ship? And why? What did they want with the six women? And who were they?
Tempest tensed as she heard first steps. She felt a chill rush through her body as she heard the creaky door opening and knew that they were coming for her. It was predictable.
"Last one," said one of the males. Then, without any more conversation, they lifted Tempest and carried her out of the room and down the hall.
"Another one for processing," said the same male as they carried her into a second room. They placed her on a low rectangular table that was about two feet off the floor. She tried to look around the room but was facing a corner and could not see anything but wall.
"Can you put her on the stand before you go?" a female voice asked.
"Sure thing," the second male answered. "And I think I'll stick around to watch for a bit with this one." Tempest's wrists were detached from her ankles and then her wrists were untied and she was lifted by her upper arms and dragged across the room. She tried to struggle but her arms were numb from being bound so severely for so long. Her wrists were placed in cuffs which were, in turn, attached to two corners of a square wooden frame. For the first time, she could see around the room and gasped at what she saw.
Alaine was in an identical wood frame and still had that terrified look in her eyes. She no longer had to worry about her nightgown bunching up around her waist, though. She was completely naked! Not only that, but she was getting more naked. A woman was kneeling between Alaine's legs and was shaving off all of her pubic hair!
Elke was also in the room. She was in a similar frame, although the frame had been rotated so that she was horizontal. Her bindings must have been very tight because her body was taut with hardly any sagging in the middle. Two women were with her with one standing on each side of her. They appeared to be applying makeup. The other three friends were gone.
The door opened again and a male poked his head in. "We're ready for number four."
"Almost there," said the woman who was rouging Elke's nipples. "Give us one minute." She finished painting the nipples which, by now, were quite stiff from all of the attention. She moved to the side and spread Elke's labia with her fingers. Tempest cringed as she saw another woman touching her friend so intimately. Then she opened her eyes wide in surprise as she watched the woman apply rouge to Elke's clitoris, making it bright red and prominent.
"Let's start processing," a woman said as she stepped in front of Tempest. She was carrying a pair of shears and Tempest froze in fear. The woman raised the shears and, with three practiced cuts, turned Tempest's pajama top into rags, letting it fall to the floor. Tempest blushed furiously at being so exposed. Two more snips left the bottoms on the floor also and left Tempest completely naked. As soon as the bottoms were off, the two women grasped her ankles and pulled them to the bottom corners of the frame, cuffing them, and leaving her tightly stretched and totally vulnerable.
