“Raven,
you are free to move about on your own.”
Vendeen’s
command loosened the hold on her body.
Raven thought about jumping up, maybe even kicking both of their asses,
but she couldn’t muster the energy. Like
Daagiis, her body seemed to be in shock from the wild lovemaking.
Lovemaking? No, nothing so sweet as that. We had sex.
There was no love involved.
“Fatigued,
little one?” Vendeen asked. His
expression was still relaxed, still lending extra beauty to his face. It made Raven’s mouth go dry just to look at
him.
He rose
from her side and gently picked her up.
Cradling her lax body in his arms, Vendeen carried her into the
connected bath facility.
It was
certainly a lavish room with double sinks, a deep tub, and a huge glassed-in
shower. Everything was gleaming white,
including the fixtures. Vendeen took
Raven straight to the shower, setting her on her feet. She expected the tiled floor to be cold, but
it radiated gentle warmth. If there had
been any tension left in her soles, it would have been soothed by the heated floor. She nearly moaned in delight.
Daagiis
had apparently re-discovered the ability to walk, because he joined them. “Temperature setting, Vendeen custom, steady
stream,” he said.
A
delicious hot torrent of water poured down from the ceiling, drenching them
within seconds. Now Raven did moan,
enjoying the feeling of flowing liquid warmth all over her body.
“Close
your eyes, Raven. Our cleansing agents
aren’t geared to your biology and it will sting if it gets in. Add soap, unscented.”
The
water falling on Raven’s shoulders seemed to get heavier. She kept her eyes shut. Soap dispensed with the water ... well, that
simplified bathing, didn’t it?
Coarse
but careful hands worked her scalp, building a lather. More hands bathed her body in slow
circles. Raven gasped a few times with
how meticulous the men were as they bathed her.
Not one crease, crook, or cranny went unwashed. It was actually a little embarrassing to be
so scrupulously scrubbed.
“Water
only.”
They
rinsed her, still handling her as tenderly as fine china. It was so nice to be treated kindly after all
the revelations about what had happened to her.
Nearly shot to death, taken from her home, rebuilt with robotic parts,
placed in servitude that included allowing men to enjoy her body...
The
realization of her situation steamrolled over Raven. She drew in a breath and released it in a
sob. One tear begat hundreds, and she
was shuddering and bawling her eyes out with abrupt violence.
She
somehow heard Daagiis’ voice over her cries.
“There it is.”
“I
wondered when she’d let go.” Vendeen
pressed a kiss to her forehead, stroking her face. “It’s a lot to come to terms with, and we are
not the kindest of people, are we Raven?
Water off.”
She
continued to blubber as they led her out of the shower and dried her off. They wrapped her in a silky-soft robe that
was much too big for her, but all the more comforting for its size. Raven was unsure which of the two carried her
back to the bed and laid her down, but they both crowded in to hold and comfort
her as she wept uncontrollably.
Daagiis
whispered in her ear, his voice a soothing warmth there. “Cry it out.
Get as much of the shock out of your system as you can because we need
you strong.”
Releasing
end of August.
