Incident at Pima Mesa by Amanda Pierce (Seduction, Lesbian sex & incest, Hetero sex, Anal, Oral, Rape, Prostitution, Exhibitionism, Multiple penetration, Impregnation, Gang rape) INTRODUCTION The following story is an erotic fantasy. Erotic to titillate you sexually for temporal, harmless enjoyment and entertainment; but it is also fantasy, illusions created in the mind for our own private amusement. The world of fantasy and the real world are, and should be, two separate worlds altogether. In fantasy, we can create people, places and events which simply do not belong to, and are not appropriate for, the real world. In the real world, we should all strive for the basic human values which reality dictates: love, truth, dignity, responsibility, compassion, fairness and respect. These are the qualities by which we should strive to live. Enjoy fantasy by all means, but never confuse it with reality. A.P. CHAPTER ONE The year was 1881. The sun was a blazing orb burning in a near cloudless sky. The wagon was old and creaked under the strain as the horses plodded across the southern Arizona plains. "I'm glad we waited." The young man smiled as he spoke and looked into the eyes of the woman he had married only hours before. "Well, Mr. Tom Willis, I don't mind telling you, you nearly drove me crazy with your waiting." He switched both reins to one hand, his other arm going around the young woman's waist. "Well, Mrs. Tom Willis, you shan't have to wait much longer. Another hour or two and we will make Sierra Verde." She smiled. "And there I hope you will find the wait worth while." She moved his hand to her breast. "In fact, why wait?" Her hand went to his crotch. "Now Miranda, what if someone comes along?" "Who's apt to come along out here? You said yourself this shortcut is seldom used, even by the Indians." "Well, you never know. Besides, I want our first time to be in our own bed, right and proper." She laughed. "Making me wait again, eh?" "If it were up to you, Mrs. Willis, we'd probably have ended up in that hayloft the first night we met." "And I dare say we would have had a lot more fun than we did at that stuffy church social." "Of that I'm sure," he responded by squeezing a bit. "And in the meantime," she chastised jokingly withdrawing her hand and moving his back to her waist, "you can just keep your mind on driving this team of horses and getting us to Sierra Verde in one piece." He laughed and switched the reins urging the horses onward. Unnoticed on the top of a nearby mesa, a lone rider sat astride his mount and silently surveyed the wagon winding its way. His eyes tracked the wagon and its human cargo much as a vulture awaits a meal. Tall and lean, his Mexican face was ruggedly handsome, dark hair and eyes accentuated by a black moustache. A slight smile crossed his face as he pushed back his sombrero and started the horse in a slow, deliberate walk along the mesa rim. He would wait. he had been tracking them for several hours. He thought to himself that patience always paid off... and he was a patient man. "It does seem to me we're taking a big chance just packing up and moving to Sierra Verde this way," she sobered, her eyes no longer laughing. "Now Miranda honey," he responded, "I've told you a hundred times that Sierra Verde is a growing town. There's a great future there for us." "But selling your family ranch..." "It's what Mom and Dad would have wanted. Besides, we'll get a new spread in Sierra Verde. I've already talked with Mr. Bloomfield at the bank. He says there's a real nice piece of land only five miles from town." He patted the wallet in his rear pocket. "This will get us the start we need." She hid her concern with a reassuring smile while he continued to gaze at his young bride. Miranda Willis was a beautiful young woman. Having just turned nineteen, her laughing hazel eyes complimented her waist length brown hair which she currently wore in a bun. Her figure was trim with firm breasts and hips. Her legs were long and shapely. "I'm lucky to have you. Don't think for a moment I don't know you could have had your pick of any man within a hundred miles." She looked into his eyes. Tom Willis was a good looking man. Short, even by nineteenth century standards, he barely looked his bride evenly in the eyes. Yet his manner, polished by an Eastern education, set him apart in this rugged land of hard work and hardship. "No, I'm the lucky one. You've always been good to me, Tom. You've been kind and understanding...maybe too kind." "What do you mean?" "Just that...oh nothing, I'm just being foolish." "No, what is it?" "Oh, it's just that you've always been a perfect gentleman...and I'm not sure I deserve that." "What...?" "Oh no, it's nothing like that! Tonight will be my first time in a man's bed. It's just that you're always so gentle, so courteous. It's not what I grew up with, not what girls out here expect." "Mmmmm..." he mused. "Oh, don't misunderstand. I love you because you're gentle and refined and have manners, not like those other men who used to try to call on me." "But sometimes you wish I were a little bit more like them?" She frowned. "Yes...no...I...oh, pay no attention to my babbling. I love you more than anyone in the whole world, and I love you just the way you are!" They both smiled. The wagon plodded on as Miranda's thoughts drifted beyond the courteous and mannerly to the deliciously depraved and bizarre and a slight smile crossed her lips. CHAPTER TWO There was a sudden jolt as a rear wheel bounced over a rock and came rolling off the axle. Tom reined in the horses and they both jumped down to survey the damage. "Can you fix it?" she asked. "Yes," he said retrieving the wheel. "Looks like the wheel itself isn't damaged. I can fashion a makeshift pin to hold until we get to Sierra Verde. The big job is going to be lifting the wagon to get the wheel back on. I'll have to see if we've got anything I can use for a lever. This may take a while." Frowning at the delay, Miranda was nevertheless determined to make the best of the situation. "You see, the fates have decreed that we are to be here for a while. Why don't we..." "Now honey, let me get at fixing this wheel. How about some coffee?" Resigned to again having to wait for the pleasures she wanted, Miranda pulled the coffee makings from the wagon and began to build a small fire. With her back to Tom, Miranda's hand wandered beneath her dress, and her thoughts drifted back to the first time she and Tom had met. How different he was from the other men. His manners yes, but something else, something indefinable, a sensitivity she had, until that time, seen only in other women. she smiled as she remembered her wicked thoughts that night as she lay in bed next to her sister; how her hand had found first her breasts and then her nest and how her fingers danced over the mound which gave her such excitement that the combination of her wicked imagination and masturbation brought her to her first orgasm; how she gasped aloud as the ocean of pleasure swept over her, waking her sister who kept asking if she was all right. Breathlessly, she had tried to be reassuring. "It's nothing. I'm all right." "Well, you don't sound all right, panting and groaning like that. What's going on?" "Nothing I tell you." "Don't lie to me Miranda. I may not be seventeen like you, but thirteen months is not that much younger and if you don't tell me what's going on, I'm going to tell Mama!" "Shhhh...keep your voice down," she whispered. "Then tell me!" "Look Laurie, it's just something wonderful that's private and personal." "Does it have to do with that Tom Willis you went to the social with tonight?" "Well...yes...but..." "But what Miranda?..."I'm gonna go get Mama!" "No, no...oh all right, just keep your voice down. Look, you've had feelings, right?" "What kind of feelings?" "Feelings about being with a man." "You mean like being in love?" "Well, sort of, but also feelings about yourself, about making yourself feel good." "I don't understand." Miranda sought a means to explain. "You've looked at yourself in the mirror when you've been undressed, right?" "...Yeah, so?" "Have you ever touched yourself?" "Where?" ""Do you ever touch your breasts?" "...I did once. They aren't very big yet, but it made me shiver." "But it was a good feeling, wasn't it?" "...Yes, but I don't see..." "There's another place Laurie, another place that will give you ten times the pleasure of touching your breasts." "Miranda Hollings, don't you make up stories!" "It's true Laurie! I'm not kidding!" "Where?" "Between your legs." Laurie's hand went to her nest, but she was clumsy. "I don't feel anything so great. You're lying to me. I'm gonna go get Mama!" "No, no. Just lie back and be quiet." Miranda slipped off the younger girl's nightgown. "You've got to start slowly." Miranda's hand found Laurie's tummy. "What...are you going to do?" "Hush, I'm going to show you something. Just close your eyes." Her sister complied and Miranda began to stroke her gently with her fingertips. She leaned over very close to Laurie's ear and whispered. "Haven't you ever wondered what men have between their legs?" "Right now I'm more interested in what I have between my legs that you say is so great." "Just think about who you would rather have lying next to you right now than anyone." "I...I guess it would be Mama. I got used to sleeping with her since Daddy died. She's so warm and soft. I miss sleeping with her, but she says Jonathan is youngest and needs her most." Miranda was inexplicably feeling sensations between her own legs once again. "Suppose Mama touched you like this?" "Sometimes when we're sleeping she puts her arms around me and holds me close and..." "Well, just hush and imagine that Mama's next to you now. Don't say anything. Just feel her touching you." Miranda slowly moved her hand up the younger girl's side to her neck and lightly stroked behind her ears. "Emmmm..." Laurie was relaxing, her eyes closing, breathing deeply. Miranda slipped her fingers sensuously through Laurie's hair. As her fingers played along the girl's neck, Miranda used her free hand to unbutton her own nightgown and slip it off. "You like Mama"s touch, don't you?" she whispered. "Emmmm..." the sister breathed in acknowledgement. Miranda's hand went slowly to the girl's chest cupping the small young breast momentarily. "Oooooh..." sighed Laurie. Miranda found herself becoming strangely excited, liked it. Her fingers squeezed the small nipple which immediately stiffened. "Oooooh, Miranda." "No, not Miranda," she corrected gently, "Mama." Her own nest was wet again. This was exciting , different. "Feel my fingers. Feel my lips." She kissed the girl's ear and neck and slowly her lips closed on Laurie's nipple. Laurie began a slight thrusting, her legs moving restlessly. "Oh Mama, I love you touching me, kissing me. More. Please, more!" Miranda's hand crept to the edge of her sister's nest. Suddenly Miranda realized she wanted this every bit as much as Laurie. She found and played in her sibling's pubic hair which drove the younger girl to thrusting harder. Laurie was now afire, responding to her mind and the talented hands and mouth of her sister. "Oh Mama. Oh Mama!" The younger girl was thrusting so hard her hips were coming completely off the bed. She craved more and deeper touching. She longed to be filled. Miranda bit slightly and the nipple stiffened even more, throwing the young girl into paroxysms of sensuality. Miranda's fingers found the young nest, soaking wet. A quick probe within with her finger and she found her sister's hidden ecstasy. Laurie gasped so loudly Miranda feared their mother, in the next room, would surely hear. Her lips quickly covered those of her sister. They were both shocked and at the same time delighted by the sensation. Their tongues played feverishly. The younger girl drank of Miranda's sweetness with an eagerness and seeming experience which puzzled her older sister, who was nonetheless consumed with passion for the girl/woman beside her. Laurie was in near convulsions as she thrusted upon Miranda's fingers. "Kiss me Mama!" she begged. Miranda's lips again found those of her sister and it was she who drank heavily this time. Laurie seemed in a trance, her eyes closed, responding to Miranda with passion and fire, yet, at the same time, filled with an unquenchable desire stemming from the innermost longings of her mind. As their lips parted, the young girl breathed in near agony. "No, Mama, KISS me!" Laurie took Miranda's head in her hands and gently but firmly began to push downward. Miranda, startled at what the younger girl intended, started to resist, questioning how Laurie could know of such pleasure, but Miranda herself was so consumed with primal desire her thoughts were filled only with tasting the sweet wondrous lips lying between her sister's legs. Her tongue played among Laurie's pubic hair driving the younger girl nearly delirious. "Yes Mama, YES!" The kiss was long and passionate. Miranda's tongue found the clitoris sending her sister into spasms of uncontrolled thrusting. All the while her whispered entreaties continued. "Oooooh Mama. Kiss me Mama. Deeper Mama!" Miranda's hands reached up to caress both Laurie's breasts. The older girl was herself thrusting into the bed, as feverish with desire as her sister. Sensing Laurie was near climax, Miranda pinched the nipples harder and increased her tongue to feverish pitch on Laurie's eager mound. The younger sister's body was suddenly still for but a moment. "Oh Mama, it's coming! It's coming Mama!" Laurie's body shivered uncontrollably as Miranda felt the vaginal lips part slightly and her mouth was filled with a strange sweetness. "Oh yes Mama. I'm yours! I'll always be yours!" Miranda renewed her fevered kissing and, in only moments, Laurie climaxed again. The younger girl's head lolled back and forth on the pillow, eyes still closed. "Now Mama, let me kiss you!" She seemed almost in a delirium as she pleaded. "Please Mama, PLEASE!" Needing little urging from Laurie, Miranda was quickly astride her sister's head, vaginal lips poised above eagerly waiting lips and tongue. "Let me kiss you Mama! Let me taste you!" It was electrifying for Miranda. The younger girl's lips kissed her nest, then Laurie's tongue probed and found her button of joy even more quickly than Miranda had done. She sat heavily on the girl's mouth but Laurie seemed oblivious to everything except the delicious nest from which she drank heavily. Miranda found herself thrusting into her sister's mouth as, puzzlingly, Laurie seemed to know exactly the location and rhythm which drove the older girl into orgasm. Much more intense than through masturbation, Miranda wanted more of her sister's wondrous tongue, a desire Laurie was only too glad to provide. Laurie's hands came up to fondle Miranda's breasts while her tongue played hide and seek, urging Miranda to an even higher intensity orgasm. It was all she could do not to scream in ecstasy. Near exhaustion, Miranda swung her leg gently over the girl so as to lie down, but Laurie wasn't finished. Eyes closed tightly, the younger sister pleaded, "do me Mama, PLEASE!" Miranda was puzzled, but the young girl took her older sister's hand bringing it near her rear. Closing all but the thumb and second finger of Miranda"s hand, Laurie thrust her rear even higher to meet her sister's hand and begged like a child, "Please Mama, do me!" Miranda, fascinated but completely nonplused, slipped her finger into the girl's waiting nest and then, at the continued urging of the girl, her thumb found and gently invaded Laurie's anus. The younger sibling grunted with the momentary pain but soon began another wild series of thrusts driving both finger and thumb deeply into her. "Oh yes Mama, yes, yes. Deeper Mama, DEEPER!" Miranda, feeling her own urges rising once again, found her own nest with her other hand and was soon dripping wet with perspiration and desire. Their climaxes this time were simultaneous and intense beyond belief. They both fell back onto the bed exhausted. The dawning was sudden and frightening as Miranda realized why her sister had chosen their mother about whom to fantasize. It all made a bizarre sense to her now; why Laurie had been so reluctant to stop sleeping with their mother and why Laurie seemed to be so innocent yet so knowledgeable about where and how to bring such sensual pleasure. Perhaps she would have been horrified if she weren't aware that her own desires had just driven her to commit incestuous acts with her sister, acts she would never reveal to another human being. Laurie, still in her dreamlike state snuggled against Miranda. "I'll always be yours, Mama," she breathed, her voice barely audible. Miranda was startled when the younger girl put her head against her older sister's chest, her lips opened and then closed around Miranda's nipple and she began to suckle as she drifted off into a deep sleep. Miranda was troubled, knowing what had transpired between mother and younger daughter was abnormal, perverted, but she was also excited by the discoveries of her own sensuality and those of her sister. She drifted into sleep, but her fingers found her nest several more times that night. CHAPTER THREE "How about that coffee?" Tom's question brought Miranda out of her reverie. "Oh... yes. It'll be ready in a couple of minutes." "Well in the meantime you can give me a hand." She walked over to the wagon where Tom had wedged a pole over a rock and under the wagon. "If we both put our weight on this end, we should be able to raise it enough for me to get the wheel back on." But even though they could raise the wagon, as soon as Tom reached for the wheel, Miranda could no longer hold it up. After the third unsuccessful try, Tom threw down the pole in disgust. "We'll probably have to unload the whole wagon, or at least most of it to make it light enough for you to hold up." "But that will take the rest of the afternoon." "Yes, but I don't know any other way to do it," Tom said. "Perhaps I could be of help." The voice came from behind them. Tom and Miranda were startled to turn and find a man had come within a few feet of them without their being aware. He swung down from the saddle and walked over to Miranda. Tom offered his hand. "We surely could use your help. I'm Tom Willis. This is my wife Miranda." "Ramon Vasquez," said the stranger. "Lucky for us you came along. I figured by taking this shortcut we would save time, but be unlikely to run into anyone." Miranda studied the ruggedly handsome man. He was somewhat older than the newly weds but his dark weather-beaten skin complemented his taut, slender figure. The sombrero and poncho covered his head and frame, but the Colt was slung low on his hip and tied to his leg, a sign it was worn to be used fast and frequently. "We're on our way to Sierra Verde," said Tom. "It's our honeymoon, " volunteered Miranda. "Congratulations Seņor," said the Mexican looking to Miranda, "you are indeed a lucky man." She reddened. He reached to place the pole back into position. As she also took hold of the pole, their hands touched and she glanced into his eyes. They were strong and powerful. She looked away quickly. "Ready," said Tom. They easily raised the wagon while Tom fitted the wheel back on the axle and attached a holding pin. He was still bent on one knee checking the wheel as the man walked up from behind "Not the best of repairs, but it should hold until we can get it to a smithy in town," noted Tom. The young husband began turning as he started to get to his feet. "I certainly want to thank you Mr. Vasquez. I'd be glad to pay..." The gun barrel caught him on the side of the head and Tom fell unconscious into the dust. "Tom!" screamed Miranda, looking to the stranger. "What have you done?" "Oh Seņora, he is just taking a little siesta." Miranda ran to Tom and cradled his head in her lap. "But...why? What have we done to you?" "Seņora, it is not what you have done. It is what you are about to do." She looked at him quizzically. "What do you want, our money?" "That will do for a start, but first you will step away." She slowly, warily backed off. He pulled the unconscious figure into a sitting position leaning him against the wheel they had just repaired. Looking in the wagon, he found a rope and tied Tom securely to the wheel. He was tying the last knot when Tom began to revive. "Wha...what happened?" "You had a slight accident Seņor. Your head collided with my gun barrel." Realizing what had happened and finding himself tied, Tom looked into the eyes of the standing man and sneered. "Why you..." "Now, now Seņor, there is no need to become unpleasant. I helped you fix your wagon, did I not? So, I am simply claiming a just, if somewhat expensive, payment for my efforts." He looked to Miranda. "The money please." "No!" shouted Tom, don't tell him anything." "Very well Seņor, if she will not tell me, you will." "There's no way in hell I'll tell you where it is" shouted Tom. "Oh no, well let me see if I might convince you," said the stranger turning to Miranda. "Mrs...Willis was it? Take off your skirt." "Now wait a minute! You can't do that!" yelled Tom. Miranda stood paralyzed. "Oh can't I?" said the Mexican. "Don't do anything Miranda. He can't make you!" "Wrong again, Seņor." The gun was out of the holster in a flash and pointed straight at the young woman. "You wouldn't shoot a woman." "Oh?" The hammer cocked slowly. "You're bluffing," said Tom. "Can you afford to take that chance, Seņor?" said Vasquez taking aim. Miranda's face was filled with fear. "Tom?" she pleaded. "Or maybe, " said the Mexican, "I'll start by wounding her." He redirected his aim at her shoulder. The terrified young woman was nearly in tears. "My God, Tom, he's going to do it!" "All right! All right!" screamed Tom, "It's in my wallet." The pistol lowered. "If you will be so kind Mrs. Willis," he said, motioning with the gun toward Tom. Miranda walked to Tom, knelt and removed the wallet from her husband's pocket. She threw it at the feet of the stranger who picked it up, inspecting it long enough to find the cash, and put it in his saddlebag. He put a foot in the stirrup and was about to mount up. "You dirty thieving Mexican son-of-a-bitch!" Tom exploded. Vasquez swung back down and walked over to the young couple. He motioned Miranda to stand aside. She silently and fearfully obeyed. "Seņor, it is true I have not had a bath since yesterday, I am most assuredly a thief and I certainly don't deny my land of origin." His voice grew deadly calm. "But you Seņor have insulted my mother and for that I demand satisfaction." "And just what else do you think you can do?" challenged Tom. "Let me see, you have insulted the woman who means the most to me in this world. I think it only fitting that I return the favor," he said, turning to look up and down at Miranda with a lustful eye, "and I think I am going to enjoy this very much." "No!" screamed Tom, pulling futilely at the ropes. Miranda began backing slowly, fearfully away. "Don't go too far Mrs. Willis, or should I call you Miranda since we are about to get on very intimate terms?" "Look, I apologize," said Tom, "Just let her go." "A little late for that Seņor. Miranda, come here." Her mouth dropped open in alarm. She glanced back and forth between the two men not knowing what to do. "Run, Miranda, run!" yelled Tom. She started to turn. "Not a wise choice, Miranda." The gun was leveled at her. "Then kill me if you must! I will never submit to you!" she cried. "Oh, my dear Mrs. Willis, I have no intention of harming you. But if you don't do what I tell you, I will kill your husband without hesitation and take what I want anyway." Miranda's hand went to her mouth in alarm. "So if you will be so kind as to remove your skirt." Her eyes darted back and forth from husband to stranger, fear freezing her into immobility. "No, Miranda, no!" shouted Tom. Once again the hammer cocked, this time the gun was pointed at Tom. Tears appearing in her eyes, the young woman slowly unbuckled her belt, unbuttoned the skirt and let it fall at her feet. her white petticoat was all now that covered her legs. She closed her eyes. "And now I think the shoes." "Don't do it Miranda!" Tom implored. Vasquez was looking at her with a sardonic smile but the gun was still leveled at Tom. Silently she stepped out of the soft moccasins. "What shall we see next, Seņor? If this is your honeymoon, perhaps we are both enjoying this view for the first time, eh?" "You low life..." Ignoring Tom, Vasquez tilted his head slightly. "The hair. Yes, the hair. Take down your hair Miranda." Slowly she undid the bun and her hair cascaded down her back. She looked at him pleadingly. "Please, don't do this." "Ah, but Mrs. Willis, we are just getting started." He looked into her eyes. "I promise you one thing. You are going to enjoy this just as much as I am." She could not hold his gaze. She wanted with all her being to be defiant, to stand up to him, but could not. Part was the threat of harm to Tom, but it was more than that. This man had power in his eyes, in his manner, an assurance that instantly rendered her afraid, compliant, unable to resist. He looked to her blouse. "No, please," she begged. "Oh, but yes, Miranda. Show us what you have hidden beneath. "Miranda, don't do it!" Tom shouted nearly in tears himself. "Listening to him will make you a widow," said Vasquez with that emotionless voice which told her he was deadly serious. Slowly, falteringly, she unbuttoned the blouse and sleeves. She looked to the stranger, imploring him with her eyes. He simply gestured with a short nod of the head and resignedly she let the blouse slip off her shoulders and fall to the ground. Miranda hung her head, burning with embarrassment and shame. Vasquez smiled broadly as he looked at her ample breasts. "Come here Miranda." "No, no!" Tom's voice was screaming but it was as if she couldn't, wouldn't hear. She stood next to her tall, handsome captor. He placed his hand at her throat and let it drift slowly down between her breasts. Tom's struggles were intensified, but to no avail. "Look at me Miranda," his voice now gentle, seductive. She gazed into his eyes as his hand closed on her breast. She gasped slightly, started to retreat. "Ah, ah, Miranda. Mr. Willis, notice how her nipples hardened?" It was true. They were erect and, to her shame, Miranda did not try to back away again. The touch of this man was electrifying. She was very frightened, very ashamed, and very excited. "I don't know about you Seņor, but in my experience when a woman's nipples get hard, she is either very cold or very excited. Now Seņor, if you haven't noticed we are in the desert in mid August." Tom looked to Miranda who, reddening with shame, dropped her head. Shocked into silence, Tom nevertheless continued to struggle with his bonds. "And now Mrs. Willis, let us see what all the mystery of womanhood is really about!" He stood back as Miranda untied her petticoat. She looked into the man's eyes one last time with supplication, but at this moment she was not sure whether it was to beg him to stop or proceed. "God, no Miranda, don't do it!" shouted Tom beside himself with rage. "It's your choice," said the Mexican, the pistol pointed at Tom, but somehow held more casually, less threateningly than before. She pulled the last string and the garment fell from her. Miranda stood before them completely naked. She started to cover her nest with her hands, but the voice froze her. "Ah, Miranda, there is no need for such a beautiful woman to hide her wonders." She let her hands fall to her sides. "I'll kill you, you bastard!" Tom's voice was hoarse, He kicked at his bondage, but the knots were secure and the work of an expert. "Let me remind you Seņor, it is you whose life is in jeopardy here. But enough of this noise." The stranger took out a bandana and tied it around the younger man's mouth. Taking a few steps he looked to the nude young woman. "Now, Miranda, we shall find out just how much of a woman you really are. Come here." Miranda was mesmerized, irresistibly drawn to this man who, at one and the same time, terrified and excited her. He pulled his bedroll from the horse and spread it on the ground. Miranda's nest was wet. Knowing she was to be taken for the first time by this thief, perhaps even murderer, instead of, and in front of, her own husband, she was trembling with expectation. "Miranda, perhaps you should help me." Avoiding Tom's eyes, she was ashamed of her own excitement, so she moved slowly, she hoped it appeared reluctantly, to her captor. She began undressing Vasquez. Her eyes were downcast but his lean yet muscular physique did not pass unnoticed. Tom's efforts were redoubled, but to no avail as the ropes simply cut deeper into wrists and sides. As she finally unbuckled his belt and slid down his pants, Miranda almost gasped. He was enormous, much larger, she knew, than Tom whom she had fondled through his pants on a few occasions. Her gaze was frozen on his maleness while her own nest tightened in anticipation. "She likes what she sees, Gringo," smiled the Mexican. Miranda averted her stare in shame as Tom, despite the blood beginning to flow from his wrists, writhed in an effort to gain his freedom. Vasquez pulled her to him. Her hands went up to fend him off, but it was more an act than a real desire to resist. His hand went to her hair and slowly, inexorably their lips drew together. Miranda had kissed Tom on many occasions, kisses which were warm, tender, but this man's kiss was strong, powerful and passionate and she yielded to him completely. His tongue drove deeply into her. She met his tongue with her own and drank deeply. He turned slightly while they kissed and she felt his huge phallus against her. Despite herself, she pulled closer, hoping Tom would not notice. Before she realized it, she was thrusting against him and he responded by growing even larger and harder. Finally, realizing what must be becoming obvious to Tom, she broke free of the kiss crying, "No, you mustn't!" But the stranger read her eyes and they were shouting a different message altogether. He read her obvious excitement and desire, but also the need to appear resistant, yet helpless. This woman wanted him, but she also wanted her husband to believe that she didn't. He would play along for the time being. "Down on you knees, Miranda." She slowly obeyed. "Your mouth is sweet. Shall we see if it has other talents as well?" "No, please," she said as her eyes were riveted to his swollen, pulsating penis. The gunshot ricocheted off the wheel only inches from Tom's head. Tom was stunned into immobility. "Do as I say or he dies." She took his penis in both hands, opened her mouth wide and took him as far as she could. She almost gagged as the throbbing rod started down her throat, but she was determined and so continued until she took him completely, burying him until her lips were pressed into his pubic hair. Only then did she bring him back into her mouth and begin sucking and licking. Tom, beside himself, not wishing to look, but horrendously fascinated, was also experiencing erection. Vasquez allowed her to turn them slightly so her back was to Tom. One of her hands dropped and began probing her fevered and dripping nest. Vasquez was fully erect now and rock hard. She was masturbating, hoping Tom could not see, but, in her crazed lust, she verged on not caring. The Mexican pushed her back onto the blanket. It took her total concentration to hold her legs together and keep her hands, which she modestly placed in front of her nest, from doing more. "She is very good for one so young and inexperienced, Seņor. She will make you an excellent wife once she has learned how to fully please a man." Tom was both infuriated and ashamed at his own erection. His struggles continued but grew weaker. "And now Mrs. Willis, you will spread your legs." Miranda did as she was told, she hoped not too quickly. "...But you don't understand. I've never been with a man before." "A virgin, eh? Well, my dear Mrs. Willis, you are about to go to school. I shall be the teacher and you the pupil. You shall learn one of the most important lessons in life. You are going to learn how to be a man's woman and in that lesson you will not just give up your virginity. No, you shall also experience the ultimate pleasure a woman can have, a man deep inside her as she reaches her own climax. Miranda was near frenzy. Despite her best attempts at self control, she began thrusting, hoping Tom could not see. Kneeling between her legs, Vasquez let his penis brush her nest. She gasped and thrusted high to accept him. He squeezed her breast, the nipple stiffening even more. Miranda was in sexual frenzy. All thoughts of self control, of modesty were now gone. Her primal desires were in total control and she could do nothing, wanted to do nothing but satisfy them. She was thrusting with all her might now, trying to get her vaginal lips high enough to take him into her. Her breathing was labored, her pants for breath becoming grunts as she strained to have him take her virginity. "Quite a woman Seņor Tom. It shall be a pleasure to have her. I promise I shall teach her well." Tom's own erection was near bursting, but he continued to pull at the ropes with what energy he had left. Vasquez laid the pistol just above Miranda's head within easy reach. "And now Seņora Willis, the lesson begins." Their thrusts were simultaneous, Miranda thrusting upward with all her frenzied energy while Vasquez thrust downward powerfully. Miranda screamed, Vasquez smiled and Tom orgasmed as her virginity was split asunder. The pain was sharp and acute, but the accompanying pleasure was beyond belief. The older man was obviously very experienced and his thrusts were aimed and calculated to stimulate her to the maximum. Each movement of his phallus brought her clitoris the stimulation it sought while her vagina felt every movement of his huge penetration. His thrusts were regular, deep and powerful, but Miranda was losing control completely, her body violently heaving against him, driving him deeper. Her whole body was shaking as in a feverous tremor. She was delirious with pain and pleasure, her head rolling violently and rapidly back and forth. He realized she was near orgasm. "And now for the final lesson in womanhood," he said, stopping his thrusts. "No, don't stop, don't stop!" she whispered desperately. "You see Seņor Tom, women believe it's we men who are ruled by the loins. Perhaps they need to realize that when it comes to pleasures of the flesh, they are just as fallible as are we." Miranda, continuing her own crazed thrusting on his penis, was only partly aware of what was being said and, in her own mind, didn't care. He thrust deeply into her and held. She grunted with the pain and pleasure. Miranda was dripping perspiration. Vasquez motioned to the gun lying within her easy reach. "Now Miranda, you must choose! The gun is beside you! Take it! Capture or shoot me! Rescue your husband! Retrieve your money! But to do that I must withdraw. Or, I will stay and bring you the ultimate a woman can experience! One or the other Miranda. Choose now!" Knowing she had been betrayed, that her decision would be obvious to Tom, knowing their money would be lost, knowing how she had been manipulated by this despicable man, she reached her hands back over her head. "I despise you," she whispered. Her thrust was the most forceful yet. Her hands came round his back clawing, pulling him to her. Her primal desires ruled as her sexual efforts renewed with an exuberance which surprised even Vasquez. She grunted, she groaned, she moaned. Her breath came in gasps as her body shook as if in the throes of hysteria. "Fuck me! Fuck me! FUCK ME!" she screamed as her nails bit into his back urging him on. Vasquez, despite his attempts at self control found himself thrusting harder and faster, his own sexual need responding to this wild animal who lay beneath him "Oh God, yes, yes, YES!" she cried as she felt the mounting wave about to crash over her. Both their efforts were even more intense than before, their bodies crashing together in wild abandon. "Oh! Oh! Oh! It's coming! It's coming! IT'S C-O-M-I-N-G!!!" she screamed uncontrollably at the top of her voice. Her body was still for an instant, then shivered violently as the orgasm swept over her, plunging her into ecstasy and a renewed frenzy to re-experience this intense, unimaginable pleasure. Her second orgasm was, if anything, more intense than the first, her entire body lurching as if being pulled violently by invisible ropes. Her screams resounded across the flat barren plain. As she neared her third climax, Vasquez could no longer hold back and joined her in a paroxysm of sexual release. She pulled him tighter to her as he flowed across her clitoris bringing her to orgasm yet a fourth time. Exhausted, they both lay on the blanket for several seconds while Tom looked on in amazing disbelief. CHAPTER FOUR Miranda turned to Vasquez suddenly, as if finally, once again, capable of rational thought, aware of his betrayal and fearful of Tom's reaction to her not-so-unwilling participation. "You're a vile and disgusting man!" she said, spitting out the words. Retrieving his gun, he stood, putting on his pants. Vasquez looked first to the woman and then to her husband. "That's not what you were saying only moments ago Seņora. You are an apt pupil. You learn fast and well. She will make you a fine wife, Seņor. Unfortunately, you won't be getting a virgin in your bed tonight, but she is a wildcat, tight as any woman I've ever had and she loves it!" He turned back to the young woman. "Don't you, Mrs. Willis?" She reached to slap him but he caught her hand easily, held it momentarily and then jerked her to him kissing her forcefully. Even though this time her desire to resist was genuine, Miranda was still breath taken by the powerful probing of his tongue. She caught herself beginning to respond. "I hate you!" she uttered, pulling away and beginning to dress. Smiling, Vasquez gathered and tied his bedroll to the saddle. Miranda went to Tom and removed the bandana from his mouth. "I'll kill you for this!" he spat at Vasquez, "and I should kill you too!" he whispered to Miranda. She lowered her head in shame. Vasquez laughed. "Ah, Seņor, do not be so harsh on your pretty young wife. Were she not such a woman, she might still be a virgin, but such a virgin that even you would not enjoy her. Be thankful you have a wife who will bring endless hours of pleasure to your bed." As the Mexican was preparing to mount, Miranda quickly grabbed a knife from the wagon and cut a knot or two from Tom's bonds. As Vasquez swung across the saddle, Tom reached quickly into the wagon and grabbed the Winchester. The bullet struck him in the shoulder, the rifle snapping from his hands. The force drove him back against the wagon and he fell into the dust. A moment later Miranda was cradling him in her arms weeping as she tried to stem the flow of blood, which was considerable, from the shoulder of the semi-conscious man. "Another not-so-bright move on both of your parts," said the stranger reholstering his gun. "I hate you!" she shouted. "I could have killed him for drawing down on me from behind. You both seem to forget, I am much better at gun fighting, as well as making love, than your husband. Now, if I were you, I would get him to the doctor in Sierra Verde as soon as possible." He spurred his horse. "Perhaps we shall meet again Seņora. When you have tired of this boy, perhaps you will be happy to feel yourself in the arms of a real man once again." "Never!" she hissed. He smiled and rode off. CHAPTER FIVE Miranda struggled to get her semi-conscious husband to his feet and into the wagon. She stemmed the tide of bleeding with a tablecloth from their belongings, jumped onto the seat and, whipping the horses unmercifully, headed for town as fast as the work team and old wagon could bear. Despite the makeshift wheel repair which she expected to let loose at any time, they rolled into the outskirts of town in a little over forty minutes. She asked a young girl for directions to the doctor's office. The girl hopped on board and they were soon in front of the modest storefront office with a small wooden shingle out front: Benjamin Welty M.D. Her pounding on the locked door brought an "All right, all right, I'm coming." 'Doc' Welty was an older man. He unlocked the door and started to say something, but was cut short by Miranda. "My husband's been shot! Help me, please!" They rushed to the back of the wagon where the doctor took a quick look at Tom's wound. The young girl turned to run back into town, no doubt to spread the news. "Josey!" the doctor yelled at her, "go get Mrs. Jenkins. I'm gonna need her." "Yes sir," said the girl turning and running off as fast as her legs would carry her. The two of them got Tom into the office and onto an examining table where the doctor cut away Tom's shirt. "What happened?" "A man attacked us. A man named Ramon Vasquez, or at least that's the name he gave." "Ramon Vasquez? He and his gang are tough customers. Are you all right?" "Yes," said Miranda, not wishing to mention her part in what had happened. "And he didn't try to... harm you?" "No, just Tom. He took all our money and then shot Tom. What are we going to do?" she pleaded. Doctor Welty glanced at the woman before him. A beautiful face and figure, and Vasquez had done nothing to her? He found that hard to believe, especially when the woman dropped her eyes as she made the denial. But, he let it pass. There were more important matters at hand. "Right now," he said, "let's see what we can do about this bullet wound." A portly, middle aged woman came walking hurriedly into the office. "Ah, Mrs. Jenkins, it looks like the bullet is still in there. I'm going to need your help." "Certainly doctor," she said glancing over at Miranda. "Oh," noticed the doctor looking up, "Liz Jenkins this is ..." "Miranda Willis," Miranda finished it for him, "That's my husband Tom." "Pleased to meet you, Mrs. Willis, but now if you could just step into the outer office..." "But..." Miranda started. "Actually it would be best," said Welty, "We'll let you know as soon as I get that bullet out." Miranda sat down in the outer office staring at the floor. Her mind raced to make sense of the events of the past two hours. Tom wounded, in more ways than one, their money gone, nowhere to stay, no one to turn to. What could they do? His parents were dead and they certainly couldn't turn to her mother, not after... "Laurie, we've got to stop this!" The two had made love several times since that first night. Miranda had taught Laurie how to masturbate and now the younger sister spent a lot of her time, too much by Miranda's reckoning, with her fingers where they should not be. Laurie was sitting on the bed beside her older sister, stroking Miranda's breast with one hand and massaging her own clitoris with the other. "What if Mama should catch us?" Miranda's mind went back to that first night and Laurie's repeated references to their mother. Miranda had asked Laurie about it several times, but her younger sister was evasive, changing the subject or, more often than not, pulling up Miranda's skirt and starting another round of heated love making. "And what if she did?" answered Laurie?" "She'd skin us both alive, that's what!" said the older sister. "In case you don't know, sisters are not supposed to be doing what we've been doing." "Really? I wonder why?" Miranda had to admit she had never felt anything like it. Even though she and Tom had now been dating regularly for several weeks, she found Laurie much more alluring and exciting than her beau. Every time she tried to get Tom interested, he would move away and start talking about his plans. She realized how much she wanted a man to take her, for that man to be Tom, but he was so cursed mannerly that if he had any designs on her, he kept them well in check. And so, her torrid affair with her sister continued, giving her sexual release and an excitement which had, up until now, been missing in her life. But today was somehow different. Laurie, who usually couldn't wait, to whom foreplay was a mere touch or sometimes a glance, was today the playful one. Teasing Miranda, Laurie pouted her lips, lifted up her own skirt and spread her legs. "Am I beautiful, Miranda?" Miranda was stunned by the glistening nest. "Yes, Laurie, you are very beautiful." "I don't see why you should have any interest in that old Tom Willis," said Laurie, sitting up and bringing her face close to Miranda's. "I bet his lips aren't as soft as mine." Laurie kissed her sister gently, tenderly. Even so, Miranda felt stirrings between her own legs. "I bet he doesn't undress you like I do," she said slipping off Miranda's clothes. "And I bet he doesn't kiss your breasts like I do." Laurie's lips were warm on Miranda's nipples which immediately stiffened. Miranda felt her breath coming shorter now as her desire was beginning to build. Laurie pushed her gently back on the bed and spread her older sister's legs. "And I bet he doesn't kiss you between your legs like I can." Her lips drifted down over Miranda's body to her nest and it was now Miranda who could wait no longer. She took Laurie's head in her hands and pulled her into her waiting nest. Tongue met labial lips and Miranda was instantly afire, thrusting uncontrollably into her sister's eager mouth. "SO!!!" the angry voice erupted from the doorway. Miranda and Laurie both looked up and exclaimed simultaneously. "MAMA!" "Miranda, what are you doing to your sister?" "Nothing Mama, we..." "Don't nothing me you little perverted slut. I saw you! I saw what you were doing to your poor little sister. Are you all right, Laurie?" "Yes, Mama. Oh, please Mama." "Silence child. I know it wasn't your fault. I know who you love and you know who loves you." "Yes, Mama," was Laurie's weak reply. Miranda looked from mother to younger daughter and back again, awareness dawning. "Laurie is mine! Do you understand? Mine!" The older woman was nearly screaming in what Miranda was coming to understand was a jealous rage. "So, you think you can seduce her, make her your lover? Well, you little bitch, I'll show you!" The girls' mother grabbed Miranda by the arm and slung her into a corner where the frightened girl began to cower. "Please Mama. I'm sorry." "Not half as sorry as you're going to be!" The woman motioned Laurie to join her as they moved very close to the frightened older sister. "Your sister has special needs, needs only I can provide. And now you think you can take her away from me!" "No Mama, I..." "So, you think you know how to make love to a woman, eh?" "No Mama..." "Well, we are going to give you a lesson in lovemaking you won't forget!" "Mama, please!" Miranda's pleadings were completely ignored. With her hands she tried to cover her nakedness as best she could. "Put down your hands!" Miranda's hands dropped to her sides. Her head was slumped in shame and embarrassment. "At least you know how to obey. Let's see how well you respond!" Miranda's head came up, her mouth open in astonishment. Instantly her lips were covered by those of the older woman. Unlike Laurie's lips, however, these lips were strong. Her mother's tongue reached far into Miranda's mouth. Miranda could hardly breathe. One of her mother's hands grasped Miranda's breast, the other finding her nest, still warm and wet from Laurie's urgings. "How good are you Miranda? Laurie says you're very good!" Her eyes caught those of Laurie, who looked away in shame. "Yes," said her mother, finding Miranda's clit expertly, "I've known from the beginning. I did nothing because I thought your real attention was on that boyfriend. But now Laurie says you're losing interest in Tom and that can only mean you want Laurie for yourself!" Their faces were only inches apart. Miranda, despite the fear and shame, felt her own inner urges rising under the experienced hands of her mother. "Like it, don't you?" "Mama, I..." There was another powerful kiss. Miranda felt the tongue so overwhelmingly powerful that she knew resistance was useless. She gave her mouth to her mother whose deep probing continued. Backed into the corner, there was nowhere to go, nothing she could do. She felt familiar warm lips on her other breast. Laurie was kissing her nipple while her hands explored Miranda's rear. She felt herself responding despite all. Her breathing was rapid now as she began to thrust on those sensuous fingers. The thoughts of being made love to by, not one, but, two women, sent her into helpless lustful desire. Unbelievable! This, the very woman who had for all these years, in the absence of a man, been the voice of reason and right, suddenly reduced to a vengeful, jealous woman with lustful desires for her own daughters. The thoughts troubled her, but even more so, excited her. "Like it Miranda?" the woman breathed in her face. "Oh, Mama..." Her mother suddenly gave a slight flicker to her finger and the stimulation was like nothing Miranda had ever known before. "Oh, Mama... yes, Mama, YES!" Laurie was now kissing her neck and ear, the hot breath of her sister stimulated her even further. Her thrusting was more pronounced as she gave herself to the woman and girl. Each breast now squeezed by a different woman, her nest in a frenzy by the hand of one, her rear by another. Her lips and mouth surrendering to one, her neck to another, she abandoned all reserve, gave in to her primal desires and her arms reached out to embrace these two women who she wanted like nothing she had ever wanted in her life. Her mother's lips left her own to begin a journey down her body. They were immediately replaced by Laurie's which were less powerful but nonetheless compelling. Miranda felt her mother's lips pause at each breast, a slight nip to drive her further into need before moving on. "Isn't she wonderful?" whispered Laurie, her own desire nearing a peak. "Yes, I never knew...Oh YES!" Laurie slipped her finger slightly into Miranda's behind. Miranda began a backward and forward thrusting to take both women into her. She knew she was nearing orgasm. "You want it Miranda, you want it now?" her mother sneered. "Yes, Mama... PLEASE!" Miranda felt tongue replace finger, flicking unbelievably rapidly over her swollen clit. Her legs spread even wider, her labial lips parted for but a moment. She shivered violently, her yes rolling back into her head and Miranda Hollings experienced the most intense and sensational orgasm of her young life. They moved her to the bed where she lay on her back. Her mother quickly undressed. Over the years Miranda had seen her mother in various states of undress, but the body she looked at now excited her beyond belief. Miranda embraced the older woman, her hands cupping the full breasts of her mother. Miranda's lips found her mother's nipples. Ample breasts filled her mouth to overflowing, but Miranda's tongue played over the woman's nipples in a manner she knew from her experience with Laurie would excite any woman Her mother swung across her body, sitting astride of her head, Miranda using her tongue to return some measure of what she had just received, while Laurie lay between her legs, kissing her older sister into orgasm again and again. Her mother quickly orgasmed three times into Miranda's mouth, only the stiffening of her nipples betraying an otherwise totally undetectable climax. "Now it's Laurie's turn, wouldn't you say, Miranda?" "Yes, Mama!" Miranda had already climaxed four times, but her nest was still hot and dripping as Laurie now lay on her back and accepted Miranda's eager tongue into her nest. The younger girl was climaxing within seconds. Again Miranda brought her to orgasm and again. Neither would stop. Neither could stop. Miranda had brought her knees up under her as she sought to drive her tongue even deeper into Laurie. They were so engrossed in their desire, Miranda did not realize her mother had left them for a few moments. She felt her mother's strong arms pressing on her shoulders, forcing her head down even further into Laurie's nest. "Now Miranda, perhaps it is time to show you who is in control here! You excite your sister, you use her to bring yourself pleasure!" "But Mama..." said Miranda, raising her head just enough to talk. "You have known pleasure here this evening. Now you will know discipline you filthy little whore!" "Mama..." Miranda started to say glancing back just enough to see her mother wearing something she had never seen before. There were leather straps around her mother's waist and upper legs which supported two huge phalli, one above the other and separated by only an inch or two. Both were at least a foot long and so large in diameter, her hands could not have reached around them. Miranda started to pull away, but Laurie, in a surprising show of strength, pulled Miranda's head back into her nest and began thrusting again. "Mother, please don't hurt her," pleaded Laurie. "She needs to be taught a lesson. Besides, how will she ever know what it's like with a man, or two men, unless we show her?" "Mama... don't," Miranda shouted into Laurie's vaginal lips. The woman grabbed her by the waist and pulled her backward fiercely just as she thrust forward with all her might, driving the one phalli into Miranda's vagina, the other into her anus. Miranda screamed, still stifled by Laurie's nest. Her arms were jerked behind her back by the woman who drove the double dildo into the young girl again. "How do you like it now, Miranda?" Again a vicious thrust and again and again. Miranda was crying, the pain so intense, yet... what? "You can take it from your young sister who you seduce when you think my back is turned. Now see if you can take it as you would from a man!" "Oh, Mama, please!" Miranda pleaded, yet even as her pleas went unheeded, she was beginning to feel within her a new, different kind of excitement. Each thrust by her mother was now beginning to build to a new level of frenzy. She sill gasped when her mother drove home her punishment, but it was quickly becoming a gasp of regained sensual desire. Laurie saw her sister becoming excited and pulled Miranda's head into her nest once again. "Thrust, you little bitch, THRUST!" her mother commanded. Miranda responded by doing just that, even at a time when her insides felt they would explode. "You want to come again, don't you Miranda?" "Yes, Mama, YES!" Then let it come, you little whore!" "Yes, Miranda, come to us!" implored Laurie. She felt the wave rush upon her in an unstoppable avalanche of pleasure as her vaginal and anal lips were stretched to unbelievable limits. "I'm coming, Mama! I'm coming to you!" The woman drove the phalli even harder into her daughter, whose orgasm was so intense she thrust herself backward upon them until she felt her mother's pubic hair against her rear, signaling they were buried completely within her. Touching where she had never been touched before, the daughter experienced concurrent vaginal and clitoral orgasms of such intensity that she collapsed from the indescribable pain/pleasure combination. Her mother kept the dildos buried for several moments. Regaining consciousness, Miranda begged her mother. "Do me again, Mama. Do me again, PLEASE!" "Get out of here this instant!" yelled the mother, withdrawing with such power and speed that Miranda felt as if her insides were being pulled out. "I will give you one week to leave this house... forever. Marry that Willis boy or go sell yourself on the street corner but I want you out of here or I'll kick you out. Do you understand?" "But, Mama..." "Now! Go you little whore, GO!" Miranda could hardly move. She was totally fatigued, her body ached and her vagina and rectum felt as if they were on fire. Slowly she got to her feet, picked up her clothes and walked to the doorway. She turned back to her mother. "Mama..." "GET OUT!" As she turned to leave, the mother's voice rang out. "And close the door. Your sister and I want to be alone." As she slowly shut the door, the last thing she heard was her sister's voice. "Yes Mama, do me now. That's it Mama, harder, harder. Put it in all the way!" CHAPTER SIX "Mrs. Willis?" Miranda looked up to see Dr. Welty standing in the doorway. "Your husband is going to be fine. I got the bullet out. Actually, he's a very lucky man. Another inch or two and the bullet would have cut through an artery. He probably would have bled to death before you could get him here." "May I see him now?" Miranda asked anxiously. "Of course," said the doctor, motioning her in. "He's still pretty groggy and he needs rest, but you can talk with him for a few minutes." Dr. Welty stayed outside as Miranda went to Tom's side. "Tom, Honey, it's Miranda." His eyes opened and as he recognized her, his eyes turned to steel. "What are you doing here? I figured you would have taken off with your boyfriend." "Don't Tom, please." "What do you expect? Me fighting to protect you and you... enjoying every minute of it!" "Tom, I'm sorry. I... I don't know what came over me. Please, I'll do anything to make it up to you!" "Oh, just like that! It's, I'm sorry Tom and all is supposed to be forgiven!" "Please, Tom. I want to make things right between us again." "You should have thought of that before....Ohhhhh!" He grabbed his shoulder. Miranda looked up to see the doctor briskly enter and check the wound. "Get her out of here!" shouted Tom in agony, "I don't want to see her again!" "Perhaps it would be better if we gave him a chance to rest now." "Yes... yes of course," she said, her eyes glazed, senses dulled by strain, fatigue and rejection. The doctor patted her on the back gently. "He's delirious with the pain. I wouldn't let anything he says in this condition worry me." Miranda was in tears. "But what shall we do? All our money is gone. We have nowhere to go, nowhere to stay." "Look," said Welty, "your husband is going to have to stay here for a few days. I took the liberty of contacting Ellen Graves, Reverend Graves' wife, while you were talking with your husband. They live just down the street. I explained your situation and she agreed to let you stay there until your husband is up and around." "Oh Dr. Welty," she brightened a bit, "that's so kind of you. But how are we even going to pay your bill?" "Now don't worry. There's plenty of time for that later. Right now, let's get you taken care of for the night. Tomorrow is another day." She looked in on Tom once more who was sleeping fitfully. "Are you sure he'll be all right Doctor?" "Yes, he'll be fine. He's got a nasty wound and it will take several days before he's up and around again, but there is no reason for undo concern." "I don't know how to thank you." "No thanks necessary. Now the Graves live on the other side of the street in the little gray house with the fence around the front yard. You can't miss it. It isn't far. They're expecting you. I'll have the livery take care of your horses and wagon." Miranda got a few clothes from the wagon, stuffed them into a small bag and started walking. CHAPTER SEVEN "Mrs. Graves?" The woman who answered the door was tiny, standing less than five feet tall. Her clothes were plain and although she wore no makeup, her features were pleasant. She was trim with green eyes and dark auburn hair which she wore long. She was younger than Miranda had imagined,not more than three or four years older than Miranda herself. Given a little attention, thought Miranda, she could be quite attractive. The reverend's wife smiled self consciously. "You must be Mrs. Willis. Please come in," she said, opening the door. "We heard about your misfortune. Is your husband all right?" "Yes," answered Miranda, "he will have to stay with the doctor a few days, but he will be fine." "That's good to hear." They walked into a small sitting room where Elijah Graves sat in a rocking chair. Miranda was shocked. The man in the chair was nearing seventy and not in the best of health. His hands, which rested on the chair arms, were palsied. His head and shoulders hung in a perpetual stoop. His gaze was downward and did not vary. he seemed unaware of their presence. "Elijah..." her voice raised a bit, "Elijah darling, we have company." His head slowly lifted to face them, but the eyes were dulled. "This is Mrs. Willis. She and her husband were robbed and her husband was wounded. Mrs. Willis will be staying a few days with us." He made a brief motion of acknowledgement with his hand. "I... I very much appreciate your letting me stay until Tom is better. It's very kind of you," Miranda offered. The wife motioned toward the door and they left quietly, Elijah returning his stare into space. "This way, Mrs. Willis," said the young wife, moving to the stairs. "Please, call me Miranda." "All right, Miranda, if you'll call me Ellen," she answered, smiling shyly. At the head off the stairs was a small bedroom. Ellen Graves opened the door and they entered. "I'm sorry it isn't larger. It's where I sleep most of the time." Oh, please, it's fine, but I don't want to take your room." "No, no, it's all right. I will sleep with Elijah. I haven't done that in a while." Ellen started to leave. "Must you go?" asked Miranda, I'd like some company." The young wife smiled slightly. "That would be nice. Let me get Elijah to bed and I'll bring up some tea. We can talk then." She left quietly. Miranda washed and lay down on the bed, her mind racing. She had already determined that in the morning she would try to find employment at one of the stores in town, at least until Tom was on his feet again. There would be bills to pay and she would do what she could to help. This was one way, perhaps the only way, she could convince Tom of her sincerity and desire to make amends. Eventually, fatigue overcame her and she drifted into sleep. The knock at the door was soft, but it startled her. She sat up, disoriented and for a moment images of the events of that afternoon flashed through her mind. Again the soft knock. Gaining her composure, Miranda opened the door. Ellen Graves stood with a tray of tea. "Please come in. I must have fallen asleep." "No wonder with what you're been through today." The young wife set the tray down and poured the tea. They both sat on the edge of the bed. "I can't thank you enough for giving me a place to stay. It's so very kind." "To tell you the truth, I am glad to have some company. We seldom get out these days and..." her voice tailed off. Miranda looked into the eyes of a woman aged beyond her years. A look of hopelessness drained what might have once been an attractive face. "I know it's none of my business, but your husband is so..." "So much older than I am?" Her voice took on a tone of resignation. "It was an arranged marriage. My mother died when I was a baby. My father became destitute and Elijah and his wife took me in. They gave me a place to live. After his wife died, he asked me to marry him. My father told me I owed it to Elijah and should be grateful to have a man to care for me. Father insisted. I really didn't have much choice. We were married eight years ago. I was sixteen." "How long has he been...?" "Like you saw him this evening? He was sixty when we were married and not in the best of health then, but he's gotten progressively worse, especially since he retired as pastor of the church. He hasn't been out of the house in almost a year." "And you?" "I care for him, feed him, wash him, keep his house." "But you're so young!" "I don't feel young any more. The only visitors we have are church members, most of whom are as old or older than he is." Miranda caught Ellen's eye. "What about...?" Ellen's face tightened in the corners of the eyes. Her voice grew low and pained. "On our wedding night he tried to take me, but couldn't. He said it was the Lord's wish and we shouldn't question it. He hasn't touched me since." "You mean you've never...?" "Never," said Mrs. Graves. Her voice dropping again and avoiding Miranda's eyes. "I ...I tried to touch myself once, but Elijah caught me and beat me with a hickory cane. He said such things are evil and the work of the devil." Tears welled in the eyes of the reverend's wife. "Maybe I am evil. Late at night I sometimes dream of what it would be like with a man. I have these feelings..." "Which are perfectly natural, Ellen. You're a normal, healthy young woman. it would be unnatural if you didn't have those feelings." "But Elijah says they're evil." "And you believe that?" "He is my husband. He is master of this house and he speaks the omnipotent word of God." Miranda was amazed at how cowed the woman was. She saw a bit of herself in Ellen Graves and hated her for it. "But, surely you must have some voice in... "None," came the quiet reply. "It is not my place to question. It is my place to obey my husband and his powerful holy word." "What about what you want?" "My wants don't matter any more. I am his wife and I do that which he wishes me to do." "At any cost?" There was a slight pause. "Elijah says I will be rewarded in the hereafter." "But, what about the here and now?" asked Miranda. "I am content, " said the smaller woman, but her eyes betrayed her. "Are you Ellen? Are you really?" Ellen started to respond, but caught herself. "I must be going. I should be looking in on Elijah." "Yes, of course." As they stood, Miranda placed her hand gently on Ellen's cheek. "Perhaps we can talk again." Ellen's own hand covered Miranda's. Her eyes flickered closed for but a moment. "Yes...I'd like that." Her eyes opened and met Miranda's which conveyed a silent but strong message to the weaker of the two. Ellen was both frightened and strangely excited by what she read in Miranda's look. "I...I must be going now," she stammered as she hurried out the door. That night as she lay in bed, Miranda began to understand fully, perhaps for the first time, how people allow themselves to be used so completely by others. She also began to appreciate the opportunities which power over others could afford. And finally, she began to understand that her mother and Vasquez simply took what they were allowed to take -- that they preyed on Laurie's and her own weaknesses. Find that weakness, she thought, and you can control in whatever way you wish. People who are weak deserved to be used. The world was for the strong. From this moment on, Miranda vowed she would be strong, she would do the using. She would take what she wanted from others, not the other way around. A smile crossed her lips as she thought about Ellen Graves. The woman was starving for sex and begging to be controlled, dominated. It would be easy, she thought, almost too easy. CHAPTER EIGHT Her search for work the next day was fruitless, but, not altogether disappointed, Miranda returned to the Graves house where she found Ellen in the kitchen. "Ellen, I brought you something," she said handing Ellen a rose bud. The minister's wife was taken aback. "For me?" "Yes, just for you! Don't tell anyone, but I picked it from the neighbor's garden. Wasn't that deliciously naughty?" They both giggled. "No one's ever brought me a flower before," breathed Ellen, her eyes misting. "A beautiful woman should know she is appreciated." Again the look passed between them and again Ellen averted her eyes as Miranda ran her fingers lightly through Ellen's hair. Ellen's heart was beginning to race. "I...I have to take Elijah his supper," she said, grabbing the tray and hurrying out the door. Later that night, Miranda waited until she heard Ellen's footsteps on the stairs. She opened her bedroom door slightly and stood in front of a full length mirror where she knew she would also be visible from the hallway. She sighed deeply at the moment she knew Ellen would be passing her door. Indeed, the minister's wife heard the sigh and started to ask if Miranda were all right when she inadvertently saw Miranda through the crack in the door. Ellen was instantly mesmerized by what she saw. Miranda began to slowly and tantalizingly disrobe in front of the mirror. Her hands began to roam over her body as each piece of clothing dropped to the floor. Ellen started to turn away, knew she should, but her eyes were riveted to the beautiful, mysterious and sensuous woman who affected her so strangely. As she watched Miranda drop her blouse and begin to caress her breasts, Ellen gasped for breath, feeling her own pulse quicken. When Miranda dropped her skirt and petticoat and stood nude, Ellen inched closer to the door, the towels she was carrying spilling silently onto the hallway floor. Miranda began softly moaning as one hand found her nest and she began a slow, rhythmic thrusting. Ellen could not see the slight smile on Miranda's face as she caught a glimpse of the young housewife in the mirror. Ellen's eyes traced every curve of the magnificent body before her as her own legs began to squeeze together slightly and her hands began to explore her own areas of forbiddance. Her nipples stiffened as she unbuttoned her own blouse and cupped her breasts. Perspiration appeared on her brow as she emulated Miranda's exploration of the hidden wonders between her legs, one hand holding up her skirt while the other found her nest. Miranda's gasps and moans drove Ellen to deeper and more rapid probing. She began to gasp for breath as she fought to remain silent, undetected. Miranda again caught sight of the peeping wife and was delighted to note the other woman was masturbating as well. Reveling in her new found power over Ellen Graves, Miranda bent over so her anus was exposed to Ellen and, with legs spread, continued to masturbate. Now looking back through her legs, she saw Ellen, one hand on her breast, the other in her nest, thrusting deeply and rapidly. Guessing correctly that Ellen was nearing orgasm, Miranda decided her first use of power over the other woman would be denial. Miranda stood up and, acting as if she only now noticed the door was ajar, started walking toward it. The suddenly panicked woman outside quickly dropped her skirt, picked up the towels and hurried downstairs. Miranda stood at the door smiling as she began to contemplate how this minister's wife would suit her needs. CHAPTER NINE In late afternoon of the next day, Miranda told Ellen she would love some company and asked if Ellen would come to her room after supper, Ellen was still shaken and embarrassed after last night and wasn't sure she could face Miranda even though she thought she had slipped away unseen when Miranda had come to the door. However, lacking any logical excuse and feeling a strange sense of excitement, she agreed to stop by as soon as she got Elijah to bed. Miranda answered the timid knock. "Come in." Ellen opened the door, her eyes widened and she gasped slightly as she saw Miranda lying on the bed wearing only a satin robe which was partly open revealing all of her shapely legs and lots of cleavage. "Perhaps I should come back another time," stammered the housewife, beginning to retreat. "No, please come in," voiced Miranda, smiling coyly, her arm brushing the robe and briefly exposing pubic hair. "Sit here, next to me," she said, the words half imploring, half commanding. Ellen sat quietly, her eyes downcast. "Ellen, I think it's time you enjoyed yourself and, in the process, learn who has the real power in this world." "I... I don't know what you mean." "Oh, I think you do," smiled Miranda. "For instance, you told me the other night you've never been to bed with anyone." Ellen caught something in the smile which excited yet frightened her. "Perhaps I spoke too candidly," she said nervously. "I..." "You were just being honest. But it was also apparent you would like someone to take you to bed." Ellen's mouth dropped open. "But I have taken my vows and would never betray my husband. I could never bring myself to be with another man." "Who said anything about a man?" Miranda was smiling flirtatiously. Thoughts of Laurie and their trysts danced in her mind. Ellen reddened, embarrassed that she had already revealed too much of her private thoughts to another -- and a stranger at that. "Perhaps I'd better go." "No, stay Ellen." The voice was quiet, but compelling. Ellen sat back down, still uncomfortable but fascinated with the combination looks and smiles from the woman sitting so close to her. Miranda's hand slid seductively down her own body. "We've only begun to get to know each other." Ellen's eyes widened, her breathing beginning to quicken. Miranda brought her hand under her breast cupping it so that, even through the robe, her nipple stood out plainly. Ellen felt her face reddening as her temperature rose uncomfortably. Yet she could not take her eyes off Miranda and that wondrous body which titillated her so, making her yearn with desires she never knew existed. "I've... I've never known anyone like you Miranda." Miranda slid her finger momentarily to her nest and then to her lips where she delicately and sensuously kissed, then sucked, it in her mouth. "Perhaps not Ellen. But you'd like to, wouldn't you?" Ellen couldn't believe what was happening. She should be repulsed by this outrageous behavior, yet she was spellbound, while her own body betrayed her by responding sensually to this temptress. Miranda let the robe fall open exposing breasts and nest hair. "There is so much waiting for you Ellen. All you have to do is say yes." Ellen felt as if her body was on fire. "Perhaps I should open a window. It seems rather hot in here," she said, pulling at the button of her high top dress. "Here, let me help," offered Miranda, sitting up and unbuttoning the collar, letting her fingers slide along the other woman's neck. "I..." Ellen faltered. "What is it Ellen?" "...Your fingers..." "Oh, and how do they feel?" "...nice... wonderful... but..." "But what, Ellen?" Perspiration was beginning to bead on the forehead of the housewife. "Perhaps I should say good night," she said, attempting to rise. Miranda's hands held her shoulders gently but firmly. Ellen offered no resistance. Obviously she was used to being told what to do and mindlessly obeying. "And perhaps you should stay and explore your feelings." "But those feelings are evil." "Does this feel evil Ellen?" asked Miranda slipping her hand sensuously behind the woman's ear and through her hair. "... No... yes... no... I... don't know." "You say your vows prevent you from taking pleasure with a man, but as you can see I am no man," stated Miranda cupping one of her own breasts with one hand while she spread her legs and with the other hand spread her nest hair to expose her glistening labial lips. Ellen's mouth flew open. She was astounded, first at the audacity of this woman and secondly at the beauty of her body and its most intimate recesses. "Mrs. Willis! You... you...!" "Yes, Ellen, I what? Choose to share my feelings, my desires, my body with another woman? A woman who is attractive to me...and attracted to me?" "No... I..." "Ellen," said Miranda, bringing the other woman's hand to her breast, "feelings are a part of us. Some of us go through our entire lives without expressing those feelings and the pleasures they can bring; while others are not afraid to share, to give and to take. Women, Ellen, have special ways of bringing pleasure, which men can never even dream about." Ellen started to withdraw her hand, but Miranda's strong touch persisted and the housewife was amazed at herself as she gave a gentle squeeze on Miranda's nipple which stiffened. "You see Ellen, what one beautiful woman can do for another?" "Do you really think I'm beautiful" "Of course you are, but how can I enjoy your beauty when it's covered?" Miranda unbuttoned Ellen's dress. Ellen's hands covered Miranda's as if to stop her, but one look into Miranda's eyes and her hands fell away. Miranda slowly pulled the dress down around the housewife's waist. "The Devil is tempting me," said Ellen, her breathing rapid. The young woman's hands instinctively covered her breasts, but Miranda's eyes were enough. Ellen's hands fell away to reveal unusually large breasts for a woman her size, full and firm with large dark aureoles. Ellen's eyes dropped in embarrassment. For only the second time in her life, she was exposing her body to another person and, to her shame and degradation, it was a woman. However, her shame was mixed with an overpowering excitement as her breathing became shallow, her body afire. Miranda's hands lifted Ellen's head so their eyes met once again. "They're magnificent, Ellen!" Miranda let her hands begin a slow sensuous journey to those luscious mounds. "No, you shouldn't," was all Ellen could mutter, but her own hands stayed at her sides, allowing Miranda to bring her hands under to cup them. "Oh, this is wicked..." breathed Ellen. "Are you sure...?" "Very sure," answered Miranda, looking deeply into her eyes. Her fingers started exploring the other woman's breasts. "Oh no, you mustn't," implored the wife of the minister, but she moved closer to Miranda instead of away. "But then you could never feel this!" said Miranda grasping and squeezing the nipples, feeling them harden under her touch. "Ohhhhhh!... Ohhhhhh!" Ellen was electrified, her pulse pounding. Her nest was soaking and her legs began an unconscious rubbing together. Gently Miranda laid the woman back on the bed. Her dress and undergarments slipped off easily. Next came shoes and stockings. Finally, Ellen Graves lay completely naked, her body squirming for satisfaction as Miranda teasingly slid the robe from her shoulders and let it fall to the floor. Miranda lay beside the nearly demented housewife. Her fingers began to explore other parts of Ellen's body. As Miranda's hand neared her nest, the sexually crazed woman unashamedly thrust as high as possible to capture the elusive fingers in her nest, but Miranda's fingers moved on leaving her at fever pitch, aching for satisfaction. Ellen 's hands roamed over Miranda's body as well, but her inexperience made her clumsy. "I've... never done this before." "All the more reason to find out what pleasures I can bring you." "But, we shouldn't be doing this. You shouldn't be touching me there or there or..." Miranda's fingers which had been playing in Ellen's pubic hair suddenly entered her vagina and found her clitoris. There was a sudden, gasping intake of air from the young minister's wife whose mouth flew open in astonishment. Before she could recover, her mouth was covered, her lips forced apart and a strong probing tongue violated her all the way to her throat. For one brief moment, she tried to free herself, but with tongue filling her mouth, hand firmly grasping her breast and fingers touching her where she had never been touched before, the woman was beside herself, helpless to resist. Ellen Graves spread her legs and began frantically thrusting, taking Miranda's fingers ever deeper. She pulled her mouth free for a moment. "This is so wicked, Miranda. So vile. So sinful. So... Ohhhhh!" Miranda had learned well from her sister, and even the short and bitter lesson her mother had given her had not gone unlearned, so her fingers were expert, her hands and tongue all working together to drive the hapless housewife into sexual frenzy. "If this is so wicked, then tell me to stop. Do you want me to stop Ellen?" She gave an extra flick of her finger to the woman's clit sending her closer to uncontrolled delirious ecstasy. "No! No! Please don't stop! Devil! You have come to torment me, seduce me, corrupt me and I cannot resist you!" They kissed long and hard once again, Ellen drinking heavily of the tongue and mouth which violated her so deeply. Miranda sensed the woman was near orgasm. "I may be the Devil, but I'm about to take you to the closest thing to heaven there is on earth!" Miranda probed deeper with her tongue, squeezed Ellen's nipple a bit harder and changed the frequency and location of her vaginal stimulation. Ellen's eyes opened wide in excitement and fear. Her thrusting became frantic, her entire body now focused on a mysterious pleasure she was about to experience for the first time. "What... What's... Oh, what's happening to me? What is it? Ohhhhhh... something's coming! Yes, it's coming! Oh God forgive me, it's C-O-M-I- N-G!" Her entire body lurched from the bed, shaking as in a seizure. Miranda stifled her scream with another deep passionate kiss. Falling back on the bed, Ellen's head rocked from side to side as her nest continued to thrust on Miranda's fingers. "What have I done? What am I doing? Feelings this good can only be the work of the Devil!" "Want me to stop, Ellen?" "No! Oh God no! Please do it again. PLEASE!" Her thrusting increased as Miranda renewed her stimulation. In moments Ellen's second orgasm swept over her, more violent than the first. On the verge of passing out from hyperventilation and from overwhelming sexual ecstasy, Ellen fought for control. "I am so wicked!" Miranda's mouth went to Ellen's nest. Her tongue flitted over the enlarged clitoris and Ellen climaxed again. "I am a fornicator!" Miranda closed her mouth on Ellen's clit and began sucking, driving Ellen to new unbelievable heights of pleasure and another earth shaking orgasm. "More, Ellen?" smiled Miranda. "Yes! Yes, you Devil, YES!" Miranda swung across Ellen's body so they both faced the other's nest, but Miranda straightened up a bit exposing her anus to the Minister's wife. "Kiss it Ellen. Put you tongue in there and suck and I'll give you even more pleasure...or you could always go downstairs and ask Elijah for it." "God forgive me!" gasped Ellen, burying her tongue in Miranda's anus. "That's it! Yes get it in deeper! Now suck, Ellen! Suck my ass!" Miranda kissed Ellen's labial lips before again finding her hidden mound of pleasure. Ellen climaxed again. Miranda knew the woman was hers, but she decided to exercise her new found power even further. "Want even more, Ellen?" "Yes! Yes! Yes!" was the eager reply. "Then leave you tongue out but suck me as you've never sucked anything before and I shall give you a present." Sensing her intentions, Ellen started to object, but Miranda's tongue found her clit once more and the woman surrendered completely. Her mouth met the anal lips and she began sucking as Miranda's tongue brought her, once again, to fever pitch. As Ellen felt the orgasmic wave building, she responded to Miranda's urgent request. "Harder, Ellen! Suck me Harder!" At the peak, feeling the wave ready to burst over her, Ellen felt Miranda's body tense. "Yes, yes it's coming to you Ellen. Eat it Ellen! if you ever want me again, eat it!" As the orgasm swept over her, Ellen opened her mouth to accept the two small lumps of Miranda's waste. "Swallow it Ellen! Swallow it and I'll give you even more!" As the orgasm began to subside, Ellen was incredulous as to what had transpired in only the last few minutes. She had entered the room a demure and obedient housewife and now...now she was not only whoring herself, but had fallen so low as to eat human waste so she might derive more pleasure form this devil-woman. But before she could react to the revulsion, Miranda's tongue and fingers were probing her again and she experienced multiple orgasms. "Swallow it, Ellen. I can keep this up all night!" Miranda reminded her. At that moment, Ellen Graves became the property of Miranda Hollings. Ellen not only swallowed the waste in her mouth, but began sucking on Miranda's anus with an enthusiasm which startled even Miranda. Over the next few minutes Miranda emptied her bowels into the eager mouth of the sex crazed woman. "Now my pussy, Ellen. Suck my pussy!" Two sets of lips found two vaginas and the women climaxed simultaneously. "God will punish me for my vile and wicked ways," cried Ellen as Miranda scooted down and placing one leg under the other woman, brought their vaginas together. "Lord have mercy!" implored Ellen as she and Miranda began violently thrusting, vagina against vagina. Again they climaxed, and again. Finally, they lay together, exhausted. Miranda kissed Ellen powerfully and deeply. "Do you now see who has the power here?" asked Miranda. "Yes," was the subservient reply. "Obey me and I shall give you more pleasure than you ever dreamed possible," said Miranda." "I...I never knew such feelings, such pleasure existed," said Ellen, whose small body now hugged Miranda as closely as possible. "I know I shall burn in everlasting Hell for what I have done here tonight. You are the Devil, aren't you? Come to corrupt me. And God forgive me, you have succeeded!" Miranda started to interrupt, but an idea flashed through her mind and she decided to play out the hand. "You wish to be my servant?" asked Miranda. "I will do anything you wish. My soul is lost." Miranda could not resist another exercise of power over the demoralized and helpless woman. "I have to pee. You have served as a bathroom once tonight. You shall again. On your back!" Ellen rolled over and Miranda straddled her head. Drink the Devil's urine you pious little slut!" Ellen opened her mouth and covered Miranda's nest. Within moments a smile spread across Miranda's face as the urine began flowing. First a few drops then her bladder emptied itself in gushes as the housewife struggled to swallow fast enough. Finally, the flow slowed and stopped. "You spilled a few drops. Don't let that happen again!" "Yes, Master." "You have obeyed well. I have decided to not only make you my servant, but my bride as well. Would you like that Ellen? Would you like to become the Devil's bride?" There was but a moment's hesitation, as Ellen felt Miranda's breasts and nipples against her, Miranda's nest hair mingling with her own and Miranda's finger inside her urging her to give the only answer she could. "Yes! I am yours!" Miranda had never imagined a woman so subjugated, so totally controlled that her feelings, her mind, her body could be manipulated like a puppet on strings. Miranda also began to realize that she and her mother were not so different after all. "Then you shall become mine, forever!" Miranda was enjoying this little act, an act that was all too real for the young housewife. "Lie back and spread your legs!" Ellen quickly complied. Miranda went to her bag. In a bottom pocket, she found the articles which she had taken from her mother's bedroom drawer only hours before her wedding. She, at first, had been puzzled by them, but after considering her mother's depraved desires, and, she had to admit, her own, she quickly figured out how they were intended to be used. She approached Ellen with the thick needle and small ring. "Do you, Ellen Graves, take the Devil as you Master?" "Yes," was the solemn reply. "Do you renounce your faith?" "I... I..." Ellen hesitated. "Do you renounce your faith?" Miranda repeated more emphatically. When there was still no reply, Miranda placed her hand in the woman's nest and flicked it over the clit. Ellen groaned and began humping shamelessly. Miranda's tongue found Ellen's mouth and violated her deeply. "DO YOU RENOUNCE YOUR FAITH?" she repeated a final time. "Yes! Yes, Yes my Master! " "Do you give me your mind?" "Yes, Master." "Your body?" "Yes, master." "Your soul?" "Yes my dark Master. My soul is lost. Lost to you." "Do you consent to become the Devil's bride?" "Yes, Master. Take me!" Miranda was smiling. Ellen interpreted the smile as conquest. Miranda felt that too, but she was truly enjoying playing with the woman's mind and found Ellen's naiveté amusing. She also found the power erotic. "You realize I can take any shape I want? I could become a snake or even a wild stallion and rip your little cunt wide open if I choose?" Ellen's eyes widened with fear. "Yes, Master...I am yours. Do with me what you will." "Then spread your legs wider!" The frightened, excited woman did as she was bidden. "This shall consecrate our marriage. You shall wear this ring forever. It shall bond you to me in body, mind and soul." Ellen was nearly in tears. Tears of sorrow for her lost soul and tears of happiness for the demon pleasure she would no doubt continue to reap. "Taken by the Devil himself in a woman's body! How depraved I am!" moaned Ellen while her nest reached higher to receive her reward/punishment. "Not a whimper or I shall have to punish you!" "Yes, my evil Master." The needle pierced one of Ellen's labial lips. She stifled a cry with her hand. Miranda seated the ring and wiped off the single drop of blood which appeared. "There. It's done. You now belong to me!" "I am yours Satan! Your depraved bride and lover! Your slave! Your possession!" Ellen spread her legs, raised her arms to embrace Miranda and closed her eyes. "My body is yours! Fill me with your satanic seed and I will bear you a demon child!" But Miranda was enjoying her newly discovered power and wanted Ellen to know exactly who had the power, who was in control. "Silence! You will speak only when I tell you to! Now get out of bed!" Ellen obeyed soundlessly. "Here, stand by the bed," said Miranda lying down on the edge. "Let me see your wedding ring." Ellen did as she was told, her head hung in servitude. Miranda admired her work. The small golden ring stood out against the pink labial skin and the dark pubic hair. "Yes, I think you will make me a good wife, as long as you obey me completely," said Miranda. She motioned to the door. "You may go now, but in the morning I have plans for you and that hot little body of yours." Ellen felt excitement between her legs once again. "Oh please Miranda..." "What did you call me?" "I'm sorry Master. Please don't make me go. Elijah is in bed, long since asleep. I'll do anything you say to be near you." Miranda reached out and took Ellen's hand, guiding her fingers into her own nest. "Feel this?" Ellen almost jumped with the jolt of pleasure as Miranda pushed Ellen's fingers across her clitoris. "You wish to be near me, fine! You will sleep on the floor, next to the bed, naked." Miranda slipped under the covers. "But you must demonstrate yourself worthy! You will use your fingers tonight to bring yourself to ecstasy no less that twelve times as you lie there wishing it were me, my fingers, my tongue. Twelve times. Do you understand?" "Yes, my Demon Master." "Then turn down the lamp and remember, even though I sleep, my spirits will be watching you and counting. So you had better make sure they know each time you come." Ellen did as she was told, lying on the cold floor in a fetal position to try to keep warm, fingers in her vagina, learning how to find new pleasures and feeling both elation and vilification. Her salvation gone, her only future now lay with this she-demon who possessed her. A slight smile crossed Miranda's lips. She was especially pleased with the turn of events this evening. Although Ellen Graves was possessed of a fine body which had given Miranda much pleasure, she hated the woman for being so weak, much as she had been with her mother, manipulated, used and then discarded; and the way Vasquez had taken what he wanted and then exposed her uncontrollable passion to Tom. Well, never again! From this moment on, it will be Miranda Willis who holds the power. She would use this weak woman and when she no longer suited Miranda"s purposes, she would be discarded. That was what the powerful did to the weak. It was a quiet night as the moon rose high in the western sky. Miranda slept, the only sound in the room that of a woman's pants punctuated by a periodic, frantic whisper of, "I'm coming again for you Satan!" CHAPTER TEN Miranda awoke and immediately looked to the floor. Ellen lay curled up asleep, thumb in mouth, two fingers of her other hand in her nest. As Miranda stirred slightly, the minister's wife also awoke. "Come here," commanded Miranda. Ellen obeyed silently. "Did you do last night as I told you?" inquired Miranda threateningly. "I... I..." Miranda grabbed the labial ring, pulling it down painfully and forcing Ellen closer. "Better tell me the truth! You know my demons are everywhere! They spy on you constantly! I know everything you do or feel or even think!" Miranda read the guilt in Ellen's face. "I already know! Now confess!" "Oh, Master, I tried! Really I did! Nine times I found special pleasure... but I was so tired... I... fell asleep." Her head hung in shame and fear. Miranda was appreciating the power her mother must have felt in dominating Laurie and her that afternoon, but she also knew she must gain absolute dominion over this woman if her plans were to materialize. Such disobedience could not be overlooked. She stood towering over the shorter woman. The backhand across the face caught Ellen by surprise. She slumped to her knees grabbing Miranda by the legs in supplication. "I have offended you, Master. Do with me what you will. I deserve whatever punishment you give." There were tears in the eyes of the pastor's wife. "Get up you sniveling little bitch!" said Miranda, pulling the woman to her feet by the hair. "Disobey me again and I'll leave you to get what satisfaction you can from that moldy piece of manhood downstairs!" "No, please," begged Ellen. "There is much to do today. Now get dressed and see to Elijah. Then take a bath and return here. I have plans for you!" The housewife started to leave. "Wait! First, tart, come here and service me!" ordered Miranda, placing one leg on the bed and baring her nest. Ellen obeyed at once with enthusiasm of mouth and tongue. Miranda climaxed quickly. "Now be gone with you!" Ellen left, smiling that she had, been able to please her demon master. As Miranda prepared for her bath, the idea which had occurred to her last night began to crystallize as a deliciously profitable and decadent plan. There was again that same timid knock at the door. "Come in," answered Miranda who had been anticipating Ellen's return for the last hour. Ellen entered quietly. "Have you done as I ordered?" "Yes, Master," replied the woman in that weak tone of subservience Miranda had come to hate, but which she was now determined she would put to good use. "Strip!" As Ellen was disrobing, Miranda went once again to her bag and to the hidden compartment filled with her mother's pilfered spoils. As the last garment fell away, Miranda turned around to face her slave of love and depravity. Ellen's eyes widened as they fell on the huge single dildo in Miranda's hand. She gasped slightly. "Know what this is?" "It... it looks like..." "That's right, and you Ellen Graves are going to learn how to screw, first this dildo and then real men!" "But my husband... I couldn't." "You're married to me now, or had you forgotten?" "No, master but this ring, my vows," she pleaded, touching the wedding band on her finger. "Mean nothing now! You've sold your soul for pleasures of the flesh. You've already violated all your precious vows. Now take it off! Ellen looked pleadingly, hesitated. "Take it off or you'll never touch me again!" Slowly the ring came off her finger. "Give it here!" Ellen placed the ring in Miranda's hand. Miranda sneered down at the helpless woman. She grabbed the labial ring and pulled hard bringing tears to Ellen's eyes. "This ring is the only one that matters from now on! Do you understand?" "...Yes, Master." "Your soul is lost Ellen! You bargained it away last night for the opportunity to stick your face between my legs! You are damned forever! Your only course is to obey me and take what pleasure I see fit to give you!" "...Yes... yes... lost forever." "Now lie back on the bed and spread your legs! You are about to learn how to satisfy a man with your mouth, your cunt and that tight little ass of yours!" CHAPTER ELEVEN "Then we have a deal?" "Let me get this straight," said Bart Manning, the saloon owner who also ran the brothel upstairs, "you have your own girl - working out of Pastor Graves upstairs bedroom of all places - and you're willing to cut me in for half if I supply you with customers?" "Right," said Miranda assuredly. They sat at a back table in the saloon. "Why should I send you customers when I can get ninety percent of the take here? Because you said yourself you sometimes don't have enough girls, and besides when I'm ready to move on I'll give you the girl." "Who is she?" "Let's just say she's a young woman who has spent too much of her life saving it and who is now only too ready to be deflowered." "Naw, it couldn't be. El...?" "Tell you what. You can have the first piece. No cost. If she isn't everything I've said, then the deal's off and you just got some for free." "But Ellen Graves? Why she's never done anything except stick her head in the church door every time it was open. Ellen? Are you sure? She looked at him knowingly and nodded. "You know what they say about preacher's wives. How can you lose?" "Lady, you got yourself a deal!" "And Mr. Manning?" "Why yes, Mrs. Willis?" "Get your hand off my knee or I'll blow your balls off!" His hand jerked away. Her hand came to the top of the table momentarily showing him the Derringer and then disappeared under the table again. Obviously her threat was not an idle one. "If you ever so much as touch me again, I'll kill you. This is a business deal. That's all. Understand?" "Yeah, sure lady, whatever you say." "Just as long as we understand each other," she said. "Now shall we say about eight o'clock?" He nodded. "The front door will be unlocked. Just come up the stairs, it's the first door on the left. Old man Graves probably couldn't hear a gunfight going on in his own living room, but just to be on the safe side, try to be as quiet as your can." Miranda dropped by the doctor's office but Tom still refused to see her. It stung that it was she who was once again being rejected. But, she would win him back... and then they would see. Ellen was alluring. There was no other word to describe her. Miranda had fixed her hair that afternoon and shown her how to use just a touch of makeup. Her eyes were darker now, more mysterious. The frilly and revealing lingerie Miranda had borrowed at the saloon, showed plenty of leg and cleavage. "Please, Master, I'm not sure..." "Well I am. You're ready. As well as I worked you over with that dildo today, you could take any three men!" "But..." "Are you forgetting whose ring you wear through your lips?" "No, Master." "Well don't. And remember, it's not enough that you submit. You have to make him love it. Sell yourself by whatever it takes. He'd better like it or you'll be back making lonely wishes in your room again." There was fear again in Ellen's eyes. "Please, you wouldn't leave me?" "Disappoint Mr. Manning and you'll see how fast you find yourself alone." There was a knock at the door. Miranda opened it enough to see Manning waiting in the hall, a bit nervously. "Come in, come in," she said gesturing as she opened the door wider. He stepped in and she closed the door. His eyes fell on Ellen, who despite repeated warnings form Miranda, cast her eyes downward. "Shall we drop the formalities. Bart, this is Ellen, your entertainment for the evening." "Well, aren't you the prettiest thing I ever saw!" Ellen blushed. "Care for a drink Mr. Manning?" Miranda had bought the bottle of scotch with Ellen's household money. She poured drinks for both Manning and Ellen, who tried sipping the whiskey, but the taste was so awful she decided to down it all at once, whereupon she lost her breath sputtering and coughing. Manning and Miranda both laughed. "You see, I told you she was no jaded saloon girl. You're getting a fresh virgin, Manning, and your customers will pay dearly for her." Miranda turned to the girl who was still standing. "Ellen, show Mr. Manning what you have to offer." Ellen reddened. She looked to Miranda, then to Manning and back to Miranda, uncertain. Miranda impatiently gestured to the woman who slowly, reluctantly began to disrobe. Ellen was trying to please her master, but at the same time was shot through with embarrassment and shame. When the last stocking fell to the floor, Ellen stood nude before them. Miranda noticed that Manning was already having an erection. "Ellen, turn around and bend over!" The pastor's wife slowly complied. "Fresh!" said Miranda. "Tight and ready to be taken!" Manning was already tearing at his clothes. "Ellen, help Mr. Manning with his pants!" His hands dropped away as she unfastened his belt and slid down his pants. Bart Manning's husky nude frame towered over Ellen. He was close to six feet four and weighed over two hundred and forty pounds. His erection was full and throbbing. "Why don't you show Mr. Manning what a talented mouth you have, Ellen?" She reached up on her tiptoes and he down to her and their lips met, his tongue driving into her mouth. Knowing how important this was to her future with Miranda, Ellen drank him heavily and flicked her own tongue over his. How desperately she needed to make him want her. "No, no Ellen, you can do better than that!" urged Miranda. Ellen knew what was expected. Miranda had coached her all afternoon. Her lips began dropping first to his neck, then a slight bite on his nipples which brought an erective jerk. Going to her knees, her hands found his throbbing penis. As his hands grabbed her hair to pull her to him, her mouth opened and she took him completely. He was large and long, but Miranda had made her virtually swallow the dildo until she could relax enough t to take it far down her throat without choking. Her lips met his pubic hair. He was amazed, never having had a woman take all of him. She brought him out and began sucking, licking and kissing. "And now if you will excuse me," said Miranda heading for the door "Oh, no, must you leave?" begged Ellen. "Perhaps Mr. Manning would prefer a little more privacy." "Hey, two women are just fine with me," he said smiling. "Very well then. Ellen do what you do so well!" The wife of the pastor lay back spreading her legs and pursing her lips at Manning as she had been instructed. "Do you prefer it from the front or the rear, Mr. Manning?" asked Miranda. "Show it to him Ellen!" The woman turned over and brought her knees under her, forcing her nest and anus into view of the lusting man. Ellen Graves lost her virginity in the split second it took Manning to drive his phallus past her labial lips and far into her vagina. She grunted with this momentary pain. He was quickly driving deeply into her with repeated thrusts, and although she offered no resistance, neither did she respond as energetically as Miranda wished. "Mr. Manning would you mind?" said Miranda dropping her skirt. "Not at all," he smiled between pants and grunts. Miranda climbed onto the head of the bed and, on her knees, she leaned backward and brought Ellen's head between her spread legs. Ellen's tongue found her nest and began a frenzied probing. Taking Ellen's head in her hands, Miranda reached down and kissed her deeply, while Manning's thrusts continued. She leaned against Ellen's ear and whispered, "You'd better make this the best piece he's ever had or this will be the last taste of me you ever get!" Ellen's body seemed to erupt into a frenzy of motion, writhing, and thrusting as she lunged against the muscular frame taking his phallus completely inside her. She knew she was too small for this man and the pain was excruciating, but she thrusted with a desperation that drove her to new heights of energy and determination. As Manning drove into her yet again, he reached up to grab Miranda' breast. She slapped his hand away with a look that would have frozen most men, but Manning was too excited, too intent on the pleasure before him to allow that momentary diversion to distract him. Miranda again bent over to Ellen's ear. " You'd better come, bitch, because what you're going to get next isn't going to be any fun!" Ellen's hand reached back under her to begin touching herself. It wasn't long before the combination of a huge penis in her vagina, her own fingers on her clit, and the sweet and exciting taste of her demon lover's nest brought her to climax. She screamed into Miranda's nest as her thrusts doubled in intensity. Miranda gauged Manning would not be far behind. "And now Manning, take her rear. Take the tightest little hole you've ever been in!" Ellen's screams were renewed but this time they were not screams of ecstasy, but of pain, as Manning drove his twelve inches of manhood into her unprepared anus. Even the dildo this afternoon had not prepared her for this. Her insides felt as if they would explode. And still he thrust into her, driving deeper with each thrust. Miranda bent to her ear a final time. "Better make him like it!" Ellen mustered all the courage she had, and in a desperate lunge rammed herself backward as his powerful thrust came forward and took him completely into her. He climaxed immediately. Ellen held herself to him as his semen flowed into her. Finally, satisfied, he withdrew and fell onto the bed. Ellen collapsed forward in exhaustion and pain. Miranda refastening her skirt looked at the prone figures on the bed. "Well, Mr. Manning. Is she as good as I said she was?" "Better! God Ellen, I never knew you had this in you!" Ellen buried her face in the covers. "We have a deal then?" asked Miranda. "Do we ever. When can she start?" "Shall we say tomorrow?" Miranda suggested. "Sure. How many can she handle a night?" "Let's start her out slowly, say five or six a night. We should have her up to ten or twelve within a week or two." "Great," said Manning getting dressed, "but there is one more thing." "Oh?" "Yes, I want her at least once a week myself. She's very good!" "You surely don't expect to continue to get her for free?" "Why not? I am your business partner." "Then why don't we say half price. And speaking of price, what do you think we can get for her?" Miranda asked. "Well, the girls at the saloon get a dollar, sometimes two. As good as she is, you should get ten to fifteen easily. These cowboys ain't rich, but when the word gets around, they'll even save their drinking money for a piece of her." He gave Miranda a long look. "I'd pay triple that for a piece of you too." Miranda's eyes narrowed. The look she gave him now sent a chill up his spine. "All right. Just asking." He finished dressing and left. Miranda turned to Ellen who was still lying on her stomach in a state of utter exhaustion and pain. "Well my little church whore, you didn't do badly tonight. But this is only the beginning. You are going to make me lots of money. Better get a good night's rest, you're going to need it! Now get out of my bed!" Ellen felt as if her body were made of lead. Every part of her ached, but as she slipped off the bed the intense pain in her rectum and vagina crippled her and she collapsed to the floor. She tried to stand, but couldn't. "What is it?" Miranda asked impatiently. "I have to go to the bathroom...I can't get up." "Then crawl, but don't you dare mess this room!" Ellen began crawling slowly, painfully to the door. The pain was excruciating as she reached to turn the doorknob. Crawling into the hallway, exhaustion, shame, and a badly abused body betrayed her as she helplessly urinated and defecated on herself. Overwhelmed by her guilt and racked with pain, Ellen Graves fainted dead away amid her own body waste. CHAPTER TWELVE Within only a few days, Miranda's business was thriving. The first night, Ellen had "entertained" only four customers, but the word soon spread and now from sundown until the early morning hours, Ellen virtually never left the bed, as an endless parade of cowboys, vagrants, and, not a few, "respectable" businessmen partook of her pleasures. Even Ellen's cousin with whom she had gown up, had paid his money for a tumble with what was being billed as the tightest little piece in town. When Ellen had recognized him, she had refused, but to Miranda a paying customer was a paying customer. So with Miranda looking on, Ellen had been forced to take him in mouth, nest and anus. He had been back three times and admittedly was using rent money for what he called "the best cousin money could buy"! Tom still refused to see Miranda, but the doctor told her he would be up and around in a week or so. At her request, he also said he would talk with Tom to see if Tom would at least agree to talk with her. Miranda was pleased. Even with a fifty-fifty split with Manning, she was still clearing forty to sixty dollars a night. She was, of course, giving Ellen nothing. Her only inconvenience was having to occupy another room down the hall, since Ellen and her customers kept her original bedroom busy. Miranda was aware, however, that she could double or triple her intake by catering to a higher clientele. It was with this in mind that she had been busy most of the day in arranging a "special" evening. Returning in late afternoon, she found Ellen in the kitchen preparing Elijah's supper. "Hurry up and finish with the old man. I have something special planned tonight!" Ellen looked up from tired eyes saying nothing. "I have arranged for some special guests to get a look at you tonight. Williams the banker, Russet the cattleman, Billings the owner of the silver mine. When they get a look at you in bed, I'll have no trouble tripling our current prices. Wear the black outfit. I'll do your hair. With an important audience like this, I want a special performance from you tonight!" "Master, please. I can't keep this up. I'm up most of the night. I..." "If you need more sleep," sneered Miranda, "just sleep through in the morning." "But I have to see to Elijah." "To hell with the old man! What does it matter anyway? All he does is sit and stare!' "But he's my..." Ellen gasped wishing she could take back what had just escaped her lips. "Your what Ellen?... Your what?" Miranda grabbed her hair, pulling the shorter woman to her and looking directly into Ellen's eyes. Ellen looked up through tears, in fright. Miranda's sudden savage kiss was strong and deep. Ellen yielded, giving herself to the woman whose slave she had become. "Whose wife are you Ellen?" Who's ring do you wear? Who owns your mind, your body, your soul?" "...You Master." "You belong to me! No one else! Make that mistake again and I'll throw the old man out in the street! "...Yes my Master of Darkness." And with that Ellen silently served Elijah's meal and prepared her bath. The small bedroom was crowded. All ten men were wealthy by southern Arizona standards. Some had already heard about Ellen, others hearing about her for the first time when approached by Miranda. About two thirds were married, but far more important to Miranda, all had brought a wallet brimming with cash. They were anxious to see what had been promised them and were more than willing to pay. "Gentlemen," said Miranda stepping to the center of the gathering, "I apologize for the cramped quarters, but I assure you, you will consider it a small inconvenience when you see what I have to offer you!" The door opened and Ellen walked seductively to the bed as Miranda had prompted her. The black corset-like bodice held her breasts high, showing lots of cleavage and barely covering her nipples. It narrowed at her small waist and ended in high cut legs trimmed in frilly lace which only began to cover her cheeks. She wore black fishnet stockings and matching high heel shoes. The men were dumbfounded. They stood in stunned silence as Ellen, at Miranda's cue, began to slowly and sensually undress. "Gentlemen," said Miranda, "this is Ellen, who is about to perform for you. As she does so I will accept bids for the honor of being the first to do more than look. Bids close when the last item of clothing is gone and whoever has the high bid at that point has her for as long as he likes, in any way he likes. The rest of you may, of course, have your turn...but isn't being the first always best? Ellen stepped out of one of the shoes. "Twenty dollars!" came out of the crowd. The other shoe was discarded. "Thirty!" came another offer. She raised a leg onto the edge of the bed and began rolling down a stocking. "Fifty!" said one of the out of towners. "Sixty!" She began taking down her other stocking and stroking her legs from toes to hips. "Seventy-five!" She ran her hands sensuously over the black bodice cupping her breasts while Miranda watched her pupil with approval. "One hundred dollars!" said the mine owner. Ellen's hands went between the cups of her garment and began to tantalizingly undo the hooks which would allow the garment to fall, completing her nudity and closing the bidding. "One ten!" "One twenty!" The first two hooks were undone and the top of her bodice fell slightly, revealing her firm full breasts. Despite Miranda's coaching and threats, Ellen's eyes lowered momentarily in shame and embarrassment. "One fifty!" offered the banker. Her fingers began to undo the next hook. Miranda was smiling broadly "Wait a minute!" said one of the men closest to the door. They all turned as he opened the door and listened. "There's somebody calling for Ellen down there," he said, motioning downstairs. "I'm not sure, but I think it's that old man I saw in the living room as I came in." "Elijah!" said Ellen. "Never mind!" commanded Miranda, just ignore him!" "But he needs me!" pleaded Ellen. "I said ignore him!" "I... can't... I'm sorry. I must see that's he's all right!" said Ellen rushing toward the door. "Who is he?" asked one of the men as she pushed past, "your father?" "No," said Ellen hurrying out the door and down the stairs, "he's my husband!" Miranda was infuriated, but determined not to let this opportunity escape. "Sorry about this little interruption gentlemen, but..." Her mind was racing. A new plan was forming, a plan of punishment and profit. "...this room is not really big and comfortable enough anyway. Why don't we reconvene downstairs where you'll find the accommodations more to your liking." "But her husband?" someone asked. "He Is an old man who gets his entertainment from watching his young wife with other men!" "But what about the bids?" asked the banker. "We can continue them down there, she said, "or I have something else in mind which you may like even better!" Miranda led the way. As they filed into the living room, Ellen looked up in surprise. "He had a leg cramp. It's all right now." "That's good, Ellen", said Miranda in front of the others. She walked over taking Ellen firmly by the arm and starting into the kitchen. "Gentlemen, make yourselves comfortable. We'll be right back." Once in the kitchen, Ellen, knowing Miranda was incensed, began to apologize. "I'm sorry, Master. I was afraid it might have been something serio..." The vicious slap brought her up short. Miranda whispered so as not to be overheard, but there was venom in her words. "You bet you're going to be sorry you little slut!" "Master, please!" "Shut up you little whore. Not only did you once again refer to that worthless piece of meat in the other room as your husband but..." "I'm sorry, Master. I know I am Satan's bride. I know I have given myself to you, that I am yours for eternity. I know I shall burn in everlasting damnation for what I have done but..." "Silence! One more word and I'll kill that old man. Do you understand?" Ruled by fear, Ellen nodded silently, her head hung in subjugation. "Not only that, but you nearly ruined a great business deal! Well, there will be a change in plans. You're going in there and give them a performance they won't soon forget!" "In there?" gasped Ellen, "but Elijah...?" "You should have thought of that before you damn near ruined everything. Anyway, perhaps it's time he found out what his pretty little caretaker does from dusk until dawn!" "No, please!" "What did you say?" "Please, Master! He'll see me!" Miranda grabbed Ellen's hair and pulled her face close. "That's the whole idea! Now get your tight cunt out there and give them what they want. And they had better be well satisfied or you and Elijah will both suffer!" Ellen began weeping softly. Miranda slapped her twice, hard. "Stop your sniveling you mindless little religious bitch. Your soul is already lost. There is nothing left to be ashamed of, nothing more your God can do to you. But I can! Now get out there!" Silently Ellen obeyed. Miranda walked back into the room with a broad smile. "Gentlemen, with your permission, Ellen has suggested an alternate form of entertainment. She wishes to make you a wager." Miranda took ten small pieces of paper and numbered them one to ten. She then dropped them into a cup. "The game is this. Each of you will wager fifty dollars which you will deposit with me and then draw a number from the cup. Numbers one through five will go first. Ellen will take all five of you at once and if any one of you is disappointed, you will get your money back. Numbers six through ten will get the same offer. Agreed? After all how can you lose?" It was only moments until Miranda had five hundred dollars in her hand. "Now let's see," said Miranda arranging a small low table in the middle of the room and covering it with a blanket. "What about her husband?" asked one of the men. "Oh Elijah just loves to watch, don't you Elijah?" said Miranda pulling his chair up front where he could not help but see what was about to transpire. Ellen burned with shame and anguish. "Show them what they're getting Ellen!" The housewife's hand finished unlatching the last hooks and the bodice slid to the floor. Ellen Graves stood naked in front of the ten leering men whose erections already bulged their pants, her husband whose tired eyes lifted in pain to see her standing nude before him and a roomful of strangers and the woman Ellen believed was Satan incarnate. Ellen despised herself for what she allowed Miranda to command her to do, but knew she was helpless to resist. "Show them Ellen!" Ellen laid back on the small table, lifted her legs high grasping each ankle as she spread herself to the leering customers. "Here Elijah!" said Miranda keeping the old man's face toward Ellen as he tried to look away, "see what you've been missing!" "And now gentlemen, the payoff begins," announced Miranda. "Who has slip number one?" she asked. One of the men from out of town came forward. Ellen stood up as he undressed and lay on his back on the table. At Miranda's cue, Ellen straddled him and lowered herself onto his erect penis. Leaning her hands on his chest, she began lifting and lowering herself to meet his thrusts. That's one!" said Miranda. "Now if we may have numbers two and three!" The two men stood on either side of Miranda and dropped their pants. Ellen took a waiting penis in each hand. She leaned first to one side, then to the other and took each cock down her throat. Returning to her original position, she began the stroking with her hands that would lead to their eventual orgasms. "That's three!" announced Miranda, "and now for number four!" The mine owner came forward. Dropping his pants, he stood beside the shoulder of the man lying on his back. Ellen had been averting Elijah's disbelieving eyes, but now her eyes closed as she tried to put out of her mind the knowledge that her husband was watching her deprave herself. She leaned forward and took the throbbing erection in her mouth. He began thrusting and she took him completely as Miranda had taught her, then began the repeated alternation of mouth to throat as her lips and tongue played over his phallus. "And now for number five!" smiled Miranda. The burley rancher came forward and Miranda positioned him directly behind Ellen and between the legs of the prone man whose penis was filling her nest. Ellen's rear was high in the air. Miranda put her finger briefly in her mouth and then thrust it into Ellen's anus. Withdrawing, Miranda looked t the erect rancher. "She's all yours!' He took her eagerly, ramming his penis completely inside her with one powerful and massive thrust. Ellen almost fainted with the pain but recovered quickly, knowing her mentor/tormentor would wreak even greater punishment if she failed in the slightest way. And so as the others watched, Ellen humped, jerked, sucked and thrust in wild abandon. Sweat poured off her as her body writhed in constant contortions to assure the men would get what they wanted. The near simultaneous orgasms filled her rectum, vagina, hands and mouth with what seemed a river of semen. Dripping wet and exhausted, she lay momentarily on the table as the men withdrew. Her eyes fleetingly met those of Elijah whose face showed pain and revulsion. Again Ellen closed hey eyes. Why, oh why, had she ever allowed that she-devil to seduce her? How could she ever have allowed her body and soul to be taken, to agree to such unpardonable sin as she was now committing? Tears welled in her eyes. She was lost! Damned forever for her lust and depravity! Miranda was right. She was nothing but a common whore, who deserved everything which was happening to her. As her eyes opened she was staring into Miranda's face only inches from her own. "Get up bitch! You have lots more to do!" whispered Miranda. Ellen staggered to her feet. She was trying to act eager, but her body was exhausted. Miranda bent near her ear again. "Do this and I'll let you taste my nest tonight!" It was like a shot of adrenaline. The mere thought of the nest which first had seduced her, consumed Ellen with a fire she could not quench. To satisfy her own carnal lust, while serving her devil master, was all she could ever ask. Driven to consummate, once again, her demonic nuptials, Ellen threw herself onto the table again grabbing her ankles and revealing all. "Come and get it!" she said in her most seductive voice. Quickly, every orifice of her body was crammed full as her hands also worked feverishly to fulfill what she now eagerly accepted as her duties as wife and servant of her demon lover. Again her body was filled and covered with seminal fluid. She drank heavily as her mouth was suddenly filled with sperm. As the second group of men stood back exhausted, she rubbed their semen over her face and body seductively. She now knew her destiny. Her only reason to exist, she realized, was to please Satan or to be more exact, this satanic female form the devil had taken in order to seduce her. No longer was there doubt. No longer was there hesitation. She threw herself into her long awaited acceptance of damnation with gusto. "Anyone want seconds?" she asked to Miranda's delight. Six of the men took her up on her offer. Three wanted her oral pleasures, one her nest and the others took her anally. She enthusiastically took them two at a time and brought them off quickly asking the crowd, "and who else wants a piece of me again?" Miranda was surprised as well as pleased. Always the mousy little Ellen had had to be coaxed, coerced. She had been submissive, but never eager except when she fed at Miranda's nest. Now she was almost attacking the men, driving herself in wild abandon to new heights of sexual frenzy and, to Miranda's amusement, depravity. Two more of the men became so aroused with her sensual antics that they reexperienced erections and took her again, one of them for the third time. It was an exhausted but totally satisfied ten men who left the Graves home that night, all swearing they had never seen or laid anything like this amazing wildcat, named Ellen. A knowing look passed between Ellen and Miranda - they would be back - and often! Miranda shut the front door and locked it, not wishing for them to be disturbed. She walked over to Elijah, pausing momentarily to look down at Ellen who, still naked, was spread-eagled on the table still panting heavily. "Well, Elijah, enjoy the show?" The old man looked up slowly with revulsion in his face. "Ellen?" The old man's wife rose from the table, smiling. "How could you?" Elijah said weakly. "How could I? How could I?" responded Ellen. "You took my womanhood and hid it behind long dark skirts because you," she almost sneered, "weren't man enough to take it! You've never let me go anywhere, do anything. I've never ever had any fun. Well now I'm in league with your eternal enemy, the Devil....and you know what Elijah, I LIKE IT! The master may debase me, but he also sets me free - free to do any or all the things that were never allowed, never even dreamt of!" "So," said the old man, "you fornicate with men!" "And the Devil!" added Ellen defiantly. "Shall we show him Ellen?" said Miranda. Ellen laid back on the table looking up to Miranda who quickly undressed and swung across her. Miranda's nest was only inches from Ellen's waiting, eager mouth. Elijah started to look away but could not, repulsed, yet fascinated by the forbidden. "Let me show you how the Devil fornicates with your precious young wife," said Miranda, almost spitting out the last word. She lowered herself onto Ellen's mouth where tongue found clit quickly. Ellen's hands fondled Miranda's breasts as Miranda squirmed to take Ellen's tongue even deeper into her. Miranda was nearing orgasm as Elijah turned away. "No, look here old man!" shouted Miranda, "the Devil is coming into your wife's mouth!' Miranda's body shivered as the climax swept over her. "Watch, as your wife sucks every drop of demon seed and swallows it! Perhaps she will conceive a demon child!" Sickened, Elijah finally managed to turn away. Miranda went quickly to the bag she always kept near and which she had brought earlier when she had led the men downstairs. Withdrawing an unusually thick fourteen inch dildo, she fitted it to a harness, the same harness her mother had used on that afternoon not so long ago. "Now watch, you pious old bastard, as Satan takes your little bitch in both nest and rear!" Ellen quickly turned over, bringing her knees under her and scooting until her rear and nest were near the edge of the table. Miranda strapped the harness around her waist and thighs and neared the woman from behind. "See Elijah, how she craves it. It could tear her to pieces yet she squirms to get closer, to have it all! Watch, Elijah, watch as Satan reams your wife's ass and cunt!" Miranda drove the dildo far into Ellen's rear. The woman screamed, a mixture of pain and pleasure -- pain from the huge phallus driving into her anus, twice as long and big around as the largest penis she had yet taken, and pleasure in her own depravity and the approval of Miranda, which she was determined to win at any cost. "Notice how she squirms on it, Elijah. But it's only about half way in and she knows she won't get it in her little cunt until she takes it all up her ass!" Elijah looked to Ellen, her face contorted with erotic pain. "Give it to me Master," screamed Ellen, "my ass is yours!" Miranda responded by thrusting with all her might and leaning the full weight of her body downward into the woman. Ellen shrieked in agony and fainted as Miranda felt the harness butt against Ellen's cheeks telling her the woman had taken the dildo completely. "She's good, Elijah. Good fresh meat for the Devil! Watch now as she collects her reward for pleasing her master!" Miranda rolled the unconscious woman onto her back, arms and legs splaying to the four corners of the table. "Now watch as the Devil rapes your wife, Elijah!" She fell upon the woman as a jungle cat would pounce upon its prey. She jammed the dildo into Ellen's nest viciously, the unconscious woman crying out, her eyes opening but for one painful moment and then lapsing back into a faint. Miranda began a steady thrusting using about two thirds of the dildo. Her mouth neared Ellen's. "Watch how she returns Satan's kiss.!" Her mouth went to Ellen's, tongue parting lips and penetrating the smaller woman's mouth and throat. Reviving to find Miranda in both her mouth and nest, Ellen's arms went around her Master, pulling Miranda closer. She began thrusting to take the dildo deeper and her own tongue began playing with Miranda's. She drank deeply from Miranda, her own pants and moans accentuating her sensual desires. "Tell him what it's like, Ellen," said Miranda. "Oh, Elijah, if you only knew! Those men tonight were good, but to take Satan's axe handle in me, to feel him reach where no one has reached before, to split my cunt asunder with his monstrous rod!...And you wonder why I worship him!" Ellen thrusted harder, taking even more of the shaft within her. They kissed again as Ellen's passion built to a fever pitch. Her entire body trembled as her thrusts became frantic, frenzied and convulsive. "Take me Satan! I'm yours!" she cried. One more powerful thrust by both woman and the dildo was buried within her. She orgasmed instantly. "I'm coming Master. I'm coming to you! ...Ohhhhhhh!" As the smaller woman fell back in a paroxysm of shivers, Miranda began withdrawing. "Oh please, more!" begged Ellen. "Not now," replied Miranda, standing and looking to Elijah. "Perhaps you might wish to let Elijah know what he has been missing all these years." The naked woman walked to within inches of her husband. She placed one leg on his chair and began masturbating. "You've taken my youth, old man. You could have given and you would have gotten so much in return. But, even now you have no idea what you missed. Well, let Satan's bride give you a taste of what you could have had!" She bent over and began to undo his pants. He raised his arms to resist but Miranda held them from behind. Ellen opened his pants, taking his flaccid penis in her hand. "Not much of a tool Elijah. No wonder you only tried that once. However, I am Satan's now and I'll find out if there's any life left in you!" Kneeling, she took his penis in her mouth and began sucking and licking. The man tried to squirm away, but was no match for the two women. "Ah," said Ellen smiling, "There's life in you yet!" Despite himself, Elijah was experiencing erection. She continued with hand and mouth until he was firm. "Perhaps you'd like to know just how good I am," said Ellen, "what you could have had!" She stood, turned around and lowered herself, guiding him into her nest as she sat on his lap. She began an easy up and down movement on him, making him even harder. Miranda brought his hands around Ellen from behind and held them firmly on Ellen's breasts. "Come on, old man, screw me!" yelled Ellen, masturbating as she rode him harder and faster. "Maybe he'd like it where it's tightest of all?" suggested Miranda. "Yes," said Ellen, "stay hard now old man and you can have the tightest piece of ass in town!" She raised quickly, guiding his penis out of her nest and in one motion sat firmly down again, ramming his erection into her anus. Elijah was beside himself, enraged, yet excited as never in his life. "Come on, old man. Come in me!" Ellen commanded as her vertical thrusts got wilder, more frantic. "That's it!" cried Ellen as Elijah, to his own embarrassment and vilification, began to thrust upward to match Ellen's downward humping, both his hands now squeezing her breasts and nipples. "Yes, old man...YES!" she cried, her own climax occurring a split second after Elijah orgasmed in her rectum. Miranda joined her as Ellen stood and faced her husband. "I hope you enjoyed that, old man, because it's the last piece of me you'll ever get!" Shame was written on Elijah's face, or was it the knowledge of something lost, found and then lost again forever? "I've cared for you, cooked for you, mended your clothes, kept your house for you and what did I get in return? Lectures on religion and keeping myself for God. I did that and where did it get me? I was an old woman before my time. But now I have been rescued. Now I serve a Master who has freed me to do anything I wish as long as it serves him. And you know what, Elijah? The viler, the more sinful, the more forbidden it is in your world, the more my new Master loves it! Here is my Master, my demon lover, my husband!" said Ellen, she and Miranda placing arms around each other. Miranda placed Ellen's old wedding ring in her hand. "I am no longer married to you Elijah Graves," spat Ellen, placing the ring in his hand and closing his fingers over it. "I am the bride of Satan. He has seduced me, raped me, stolen my virginity, my heart and soul. And I revel, do you hear me, REVEL in our debauchery! I may be damned forever, but if this is a taste of hell, I welcome it with open arms!" She and Miranda kissed long and deeply in front of the old man whose face was stained with tears. "Before we retire for the evening, why don't you leave Elijah a present," suggested Miranda. Ellen, still nude, stood upon the table and looked Elijah eye to eye with a triumphant, sardonic smile. "A token of my affection, old man!" she said venomously as, standing straight and proud, she defecated and urinated on herself and the table. Stepping down, she and Miranda locked arms and walked toward the hallway leading to the stairs. "Better clean that up, old man," said Ellen. "And you can get yourself to bed the best way you can. In the morning, after I have fixed my Master's breakfast, if there is anything left, perhaps I'll throw you a few scraps." "In the meantime," added Miranda, "your wife will spend the night lying between my legs, licking my cunt." Ellen looked to Miranda with excitement and anticipation as they ascended the stairs. "I think you've earned a reward after your performance tonight." smiled Miranda. It was during the middle of the night, as Ellen and Miranda were feverishly satisfying their carnal cravings for the fifth time, that they heard the muffled gunshot from downstairs. Miranda looked down knowingly to Ellen whose face was buried in her nest. "Do you think we should go to him?" Ellen's face lifted only briefly. "Whatever he's done to himself, he'll still be there in the morning." She smiled and this time, her tongue sought the soft and warm tightness of Miranda's anus. CHAPTER THIRTEEN Tom was finally up and about, arm in a sling. He was still avoiding Miranda, his anger paling, but not yet to the point where he wished to confront her. The doctor had suggested a short walk and so he headed down the street, pausing in front of the saloon. He wasn't much of a drinker, however the piano music, which came wafting from inside, was good and he felt he needed something to brighten his spirits. Looking around briefly as he entered, he saw the usual assortment of card games and saloon girls plying drinks and other pleasures. Moving to the bar, he started to order when he realized he had no money. Angrily he turned to leave. "Care to join me?" The face was clean shaven, the clothes clean. The man had been sitting alone at a back table when Tom entered and had moved to the bar beside him. "Randy Barrett," he said offering his hand and motioning to the table. "Well...sure, I guess. I'm Tom Willis," said Tom, holding out his good hand. "I heard about what happened to you and your wife. Ramon Vasquez is one tough hombre," stated the stranger as they sat at a back table. "You're probably lucky just to be sitting here right now. A lot of men would have been buzzard bait by now." Tom nodded though he didn't feel very lucky at all right now. "You seem to know a lot about me," Tom said somewhat suspiciously. "Well," said Barrett, "Mrs. Jenkins is good helping Doc Welty, but she does have a loose tongue. I'm afraid it's all over town about what Vasquez did to you...and your wife." "What do you mean what he did to my wife?" demanded Tom indignantly. "I'm sorry, I really am," said the rancher with genuine concern, "but it seems you were delirious for a while and..." "And what?" demanded Tom reddening. "You talked about what went on between Vasquez and your wife... look, it's none of my business." "Damned right it isn't, or anyone else's!" "Lord knows there's already enough gossip about your wife. It's better left alone." "Gossip? What gossip?" Barrett seemed hesitant. "Tell me!" insisted Tom. "Well..." Tom's voice lowered into the range of threats. "Tell me!" "Look," said Barrett, obviously embarrassed, "while you were at the Doc's, your wife has been staying with old Reverend Graves and that young wife of his, Ellen." "Go on." 'Well, there's talk that since your wife moved in, Ellen has been whoring and your wife is mixed up in it some way." Tom was astounded. After all that had happened.... "You're lying!" "I kind of wish I were," Barrett replied, "but the strangest thing of all is that old man Graves shot and killed himself last night." Tom's mouth dropped open in disbelief. First Miranda's shameful debauchery with Vasquez and now mixed up with whores and a suicide? "My God," Tom uttered under his breath, "What will she do next?" "Look," consoled Barrett, his hand reaching out to cover Tom's, "I'm really sorry you had to hear this." Tom was shocked, but strangely he did not draw away. Barrett's hand was soft, warm. In fact his whole demeanor was unlike the other men Tom had ever known. They were rough, course, loud and vulgar. This man, Barrett, seemed just the opposite, refined, sensitive and caring. "I...I'd better go," said Tom, disoriented, not really knowing what to do or where to go. "I understand," said the gentle stranger, "but my place is not far, just North of town. There would be just the two of us, so if you ever need me..." His hand squeezed Tom's ever so lightly. Tom was dumbfounded. Wounded, his wife doing Lord only knows what and now a man offers a relationship. Tom wasn't offended, rather he found Barrett to be genuine and at least honest about his intentions. "Thanks, Barrett..." "Please, call me Randy." "All right... Randy... I..." Tom was chocking on his words. He questioned what he really wanted to say to this man. His mind whirled. Confused, he only knew for sure this man was so different from the others and, in many ways, like himself. "I... I... I have to go. My...wife..." Tom uttered almost breathless as he arose. "Of course," replied Barrett, their eyes meeting, his voice low and sincere, "but if you need me...ever..." "Yes, I... understand," Tom said, his heart pounding. It was a very confused, angry and excited young man who walked from the Sierra Verde Saloon. CHAPTER FOURTEEN Miranda and Ellen had also become aware of the rumors circulating about their "business". So they decided Ellen should at least give the appearance of paying her respects as a good religious wife. She wore a long plain black dress, her hair done into a conservative bun. As she stood at the grave side, her mind was on one thing only, her demon lover who awaited her at home. As her thoughts ran to Miranda and the outrageous sexual acts they had committed together, she felt her nest begin to moisten. As the preacher was finishing his remarks, so was Ellen as, with her vaginal lips, she squeezed the dildo Miranda had given her before coming to the service. The same strap Miranda had used to hold the huge dildo in place as she raped Ellen was now working in reverse. The dildo, fitted into the strap, was protruding backward into Ellen's nest. Ellen had trained herself to constrict and relax her vagina so as to work the dildo back and forth. As the bible thumping preacher's prayer reached a climax, so did Ellen. "AMEN!" she shouted a little to loudly as her body shivered. Ignoring the stares, she began to leave, wanting to get home to her Master as soon as possible. "Mrs. Graves?" said one of the church elders. "Yes, Elder Taylor?" "The elders of the church need to talk with you." "Maybe later," Ellen said, her mind racing to a beautiful naked body waiting for her, legs spread. "Now, Mrs. Graves!" There was a harsh coldness, which suggested immediacy. "Very well," replied Ellen impatiently, "What do you want to talk about?" Miranda had gone downstairs to fix some tea. She was wondering how much the funeral and compulsory mourning would curtail business. She still wasn't sure how much longer she could keep this arrangement as she had heard this morning that Tom was now up and around. She wondered if there was any way she could wangle him into letting her keep Ellen and their lucrative venture. She was sure she could play the repentant wife, manipulate him into taking her back. It was just this thing with Ellen. The rumors were all over town. Perhaps she would deny it, keep Ellen in business here while she and Tom lived elsewhere. Of course she would have to see Ellen occasionally to "reward" her for jobs well done, but that could be arranged so Tom would never know. Their eyes met the moment she opened the bedroom door. "You!" she gasped. "None other!" Her heart was in her throat. The thoughts of the last few moments were scattered asunder. This was different. There were those moments at Pima Mesa when she thought he was lost to her forever, then the separation and yearning. "I've thought of you constantly." she said, "and the more I thought of you, the more I wanted you." "As I have thought of you," he replied. She set down the tea and began to undress seductively. He walked over to her, reached out and ripped open her blouse. Taking a breast in each hand, he squeezed as he pushed her against the wall. "At Pima Mesa I came to realize you like it rough, don't you?" "Yes," answered a breathless Miranda. "And hard!" he said, his erection throbbing against her even through his pants. "Yes!" "See if this is hard enough for you!" he said, unbuckling his pants, pulling the rest of her dress from her and with both of them in a standing position, forcing her legs apart and filling her nest with a rock hard penis. "Thrusting uncontrollably, Miranda could only utter... "Yes, Ramon, YES!" Minutes later, Ellen came running up the stairs, paper in hand. "Master, Master," she called, her voice urgent, worried. She ran to Miranda's room and knocked repeatedly until Miranda, nude, breathless and perspiring profusely, opened the door slightly. "What shall we do?" cried Ellen. "I was stopped by the church elders after the ceremony. Master, Elijah left everything to the church!" She was in tears. "House, furniture, belongings, even the small amount of money in the bank. They know, Master, they know what we've been doing. They're kicking us out. They told me we have only until noon tomorrow!" Her voice was filled with panic. "What will we do master? What will we do?" "We, Ellen?" Ellen was stunned. "Why, yes Master. You know I want nothing more than to serve you." She fell to her knees, forcing open the door and grasping Miranda's legs. She buried her face in Miranda's nest and began sobbing before she realized they were not alone. "Who..." she stammered. The Mexican lay naked and smiling on the bed. "There has been a change of plans, Ellen. Ramon and I are going away together. He wants me to be his woman and I have come to realize in the last few minutes how much I want to BE his woman! We are leaving for his camp in the next few minutes." "But... but... you can't leave me!" Ellen shouted, clinging even more tightly to Miranda's leg. Miranda was disgusted at how quickly Ellen had reverted to the role of groveling, mousy servant. She hated her for it. She yanked the smaller woman up, painfully, by the hair and then backhanded her across the face, Ellen falling backward onto the floor. "Not only can... AM!" Miranda sneered, grabbing a blouse and skirt and beginning to dress "But, where will I go? What will I do?" sobbed Ellen. "That is your concern, not mine." replied Miranda. "I'm leaving this town and never coming back." "Please!" begged the sobbing woman, "Please!" "You sniveling little bitch!" Miranda's kick caught Ellen under the chin, driving her hard against the foot rail of the bed. Stunned, she could offer no resistance as Miranda grabbed her by the hair and began dragging her from the room. "No, master, no. PLEASE!" Into the hall, Miranda pulled the dazed woman toward the stairs. Dragged by her hair, trying to regain her footing, tears streaming down her face, Ellen Graves life was crumbling. Miranda dragged her to the top of the stairs. Her eyes streaming tears, Ellen wailed, "I think I'm going to have a baby, your baby Master!" "You're not just a whore, you're an idiot as well!" spat Miranda. Using her foot, she shoved with all her might. Ellen went tumbling head first down the stairs, landing heavily. She was only beginning to slowly regain her footing before Miranda had her by the hair again. "Please don't do this! I love you Master. I will serve you in any way you desire!" "Get out of this house and out of my life!" screamed Miranda, flinging open the front door and literally kicking Ellen onto the porch. "I'm through with you bitch! I've got a man now, a real man and I don't need you any longer. Get out and stay out!" The door slammed shut with finality. Tears mixed with a trickle of blood from the corner of her mouth, streamed down her face. Eyes glazed, in a physical and emotional stupor, Ellen Graves walked unsteadily away. Miranda and Vasquez agreed to meet at the saloon as soon as she could drop by the smithy's and get the wagon and team. She paid the smithy and hurriedly drove the team to the saloon where she ran inside to be with her lover. She no longer cared what the townsfolk thought of her. She walked to the bar, lifted his hand to her breast and kissed him deeply. He smiled, put his arm around her and they started to walk toward the double swinging doors. The doors parted and Tom stood facing the pair. "Let her go Vasquez!" Hatred permeated every vocal inflection. His hand twitched near the Colt he now awkwardly wore. "You are no gunfighter, Seņor. You had better think twice about what happened at Pima Mesa. This time I will not aim for your shoulder." Vasquez pushed Miranda gently away. The two men stood eye to eye. "Are you all right Miranda?" asked Tom. "You don't seem to understand, Seņor. She wants to come with me." "Miranda," said Tom, in his inexperience looking away from Vasquez to her, "I don't care what has happened in the past. I want us to be together!" "No, Tom," she answered, confidently looking to the Mexican, "Ramon wants me to be his woman... And I want him to be my man!" "But I'm your husband!" "No, Tom, not any more." she said, taking off her wedding band and throwing it on the floor at his feet. "Accept it Seņor. She wants me and not you." "I'll kill you," said Tom, his voice low and deliberate. "No, I don't think you will," replied Miranda. "If you are foolish enough to draw on Ramon, he will simply kill you before you can even draw that gun. But you won't draw, Tom, because you're weak! You're no man! A real man would have taken me long ago when I first wanted you to! A real man would never have let Ramon take me out there at Pima Mesa. Instead you just watched and got so excited you came in your pants!" Tom, burning with embarrassment, looked around the room. "But... but..." His plea found no sympathy anywhere in the saloon. "But nothing," continued Miranda, "any real man would have found a way to get loose to defend his woman. But no, you just watched Ramon ram me full again and again. And you know what, Tom Willis? It was great!" She stood defiantly. The power was hers. His voice was uncertain now, weaker. "Miranda... no..." "Yes, I loved every minute of it! Ramon is big and powerful. He knows how to fill and satisfy a woman. You have nothing between your legs which could even come close to satisfying a woman and you wouldn't know how to use it if you did!" "Miranda, PLEASE!" Tom pleaded, tears beginning to fill his eyes. "Go away Tom, back to your schooling and your books! Ramon has what I need, what I want!" "But... you loved me!" he tried one last time, his life crumbling around him. "Loved you? I needed to get away from my mother. You were handy, that's all. Do you really think I could love a man who couldn't satisfy me? You're nothing, nothing but an impotent voyeur who gets your pleasure from seeing another man ream your wife!" "... no..." His voice tailed off to nothing. He stood alone among strangers, all of whom would now scoff at him, ridicule him, treat him with derision. His world was destroyed, the woman he loved and thought loved him, filled with nothing but loathing for him. Tears ran down his cheeks. "See how you cry, you miserable weakling!" was her stinging reply. "You're no man at all! You don't deserve a real woman! You don't deserve anything! So why don't you just find a hole somewhere to crawl into!" His knees weak, his determination and manhood destroyed, Tom Willis hung his head as the tears flowed freely. "Or better yet," railed Miranda, "go ahead, draw on Ramon! Let him put you out of your miserable existence! Let's be rid of you once and for all!" Tom's eyes met hers a final time. He found nothing but powerful and utter rejection and loathing. "We all know you won't, Tom. You haven't the guts!" Miranda's destruction of his manhood was complete. "Go ahead, Tom, draw!" Her voice was filled with triumph. "Draw you sniveling little coward, DRAW!" There was a momentary twitch of his fingers, then, he burst into tears and sank to his knees on the saloon floor. Miranda looked around the room in triumph. Arm in arm, she and Ramon started past her weeping husband whose face was buried in his hands. Pausing at the end of the bar, Miranda picked up the brass spittoon. "Here, you should get everything you deserve," she said, upending the spittoon over his head. She then spat upon him herself. Laughing, Miranda and Ramon walked out. The silence was deafening as all eyes were on the defeated figure on the saloon floor, spittle running down his face, mixing with the uncontrollable tears and unrelenting sobs. CHAPTER FIFTEEN "Come in," said Manning, responding to the timid knock at his office door. "Well, look who's here. And what can I do for you little lady?" "I... I need a job. No one else in town will even speak to me, I have nowhere else to go." "Word on the street is, you're broke and pregnant," he said, eying the woman who had pleasured him several times since that initial evening. "I'll do ANYTHING!" Ellen sobbed, "just please don't turn me away. I slept in the livery stable last night. The smithy caught me this morning and threw me out. Please!" "Are you showing yet?" "No, not for a while." "All right then, you can work the room on the far end of the hall. I had a girl quit last week and with that cattle drive moving through, I've got more horny cowboys on my hands than girls to satisfy them with." He looked her in the eye. "I can have Mabel take care of that motherly thing," he volunteered, "She's pretty handy with a coat hanger." "I'll do whatever you say," Ellen whimpered subserviently. He motioned her to come closer. She meekly obeyed. His hand went under her skirt, his finger probing her nest. Her eyes were downcast. She made no offer to resist. "Still tight, eh Ellen?" he smiled. "Let's just get one thing straight. You work for me now!" A second finger joined the first. He hooked his fingers inside her and painfully yanked her to her knees. She gasped, but offered no resistance. Sitting in his chair, he took her chin in his hand and forced her to look him in the eyes. "Don't expect to pull down any of that fancy money here. You'll get two, maybe three dollars a tumble, less when your tummy starts to swell. My cut is ninety percent. For that you get a roof over your head and three meals a day as long as you keep the customers satisfied. And you won't find any nice gentlemanly types here either, just rough and dirty cowboys. Some of them are real animals and some will beat the hell out of you before they take a piece of you. Still want the job?" Her eyes could no longer meet his and dropped downward. Her voice was weak, almost inaudible. "...yes, sir." "All right. You might as well get right to work. I've got two cowboys waiting in room nineteen. Get out of those clothes and I'll see what Mabel can rustle up in the way of an outfit." She undressed and was standing near his desk, naked, when he returned. He leered at her lithe body as she put on the sheer negligee. "Let's make sure your haven't forgotten any important skills," he said, motioning to his crotch. She lowered herself to her knees, unbuttoned his pants and took his already throbbing erection in her mouth. Manning climaxed quickly, Ellen swallowing every drop. "And Ellen," he said as she was opening the door to leave. She looked back to see him smiling broadly. "I'll expect you to put out for me any time and any way I want." Her eyes could not meet his. "...yes, sir," she said as she silently slipped out and closed the door. CHAPTER SIXTEEN "Come in," said Randy Barrett. Tom opened the door. He still could not believe he was here. "She left me," was all he could manage. Barrett offered him a set and Tom eased himself onto the sofa, exhausted. "What you need is a good drink," said the rancher, moving to a small bar at one end of the room. "She ran off with Vasquez." "Vasquez? Why the little whore...oops, sorry." "It's all right. That's exactly what she is and I've been a fool to think she was anything else." "Maybe she'll come back," volunteered Barrett. "No, I don't think so. Besides, after the things she said, I never want anything to do with her again...with ANY woman!" "Well, I can't blame you for that... Do you have a place to stay?" asked Barrett, changing the subject. Tom nodded negatively. "They took everything! Money, clothes, wagon, team... everything!" "Then stay here with me!" Tom's eyes met those of Barrett. "I'll make you a promise," stated Barrett, his voice low and sincere. "Stay with me and I'll treat you right. Stay as long as you like. I'll never run out on you the way she did." Tom was confused. Experiencing inner urges he felt he shouldn't, he finished off the drink and lay back on the sofa. "I won't ever let you down, Tom. I won't ever disappoint you," said Barrett, almost in a whisper as he sat on the edge of the sofa. Barrett's voice was low and husky. "Please, Tom" "Yes...maybe for a while," Tom said softly as his arm came across his face, hiding his eyes as the other man's hands began exploring his body. CHAPTER SEVENTEEN It was near sundown when they rode into Vasquez's camp, she in the wagon, he on horseback. There were fifteen or twenty men milling about, along with about a third as many women. A huge pot suspended over a roaring fire contained a stew which was quickly rising to a boil. Three of the women greeted them as they dismounted. The women were actually only in their late twenties, but any observer would have guessed between forty and fifty. There were smiles on their faces, but each had that look indicative of a hard and demanding life. Miranda did not have to guess what those demands were. They crowded around Vasquez and his arms went wide to embrace them all. "This is Rosita, Corrina and Conchita," smiled Vasquez. "And you Seņorita?" asked Rosita. "I am Miranda, his woman!" Miranda said triumphantly. " But who are these women?" she asked, turning to Vasquez. "Oh, we are his women too," said Corrina, smiling. "But, I am his woman now," said Miranda. "Si, you and Rosita and Corrina and I," smiled Conchita. "You don't understand," insisted Miranda, "I am his ONLY woman now!" "No, Miranda, it is you who does not understand," stated Vasquez. Feelings of uncertainty, feelings she had not experienced for some time began to creep into Miranda's consciousness. "But," she insisted, "you said I would be your woman." "And so you are," answered Vasquez, "along with these other lovely ladies!" The three Mexican women tittered. Realization striking home, Miranda gave him first a hurt, then defiant look. "Then they can have you!" As she turned to climb back aboard the wagon, a strong hand clutched her arm, freezing her motionless. "I'm afraid it is not as simple as that." "Why not?" she asked, fighting vainly to break free of Vasquez's grip. "Because you have seen our camp. You know where it is." "I won't tell, I promise." She heard herself pleading, hating herself for it. He laughed. "If there is one thing I have learned about you Seņorita, it is that you are not to be trusted." Desperation was beginning to creep into her voice though she was still trying to remain defiant. "I'll run away. You can't keep me here!" "Think not?" said Vasquez motioning to one of the other men. "What are you going to do?" she asked, fear now rising steadily. "Just a little insurance," replied Vasquez. The other man reappeared with a rope. "Please, don't do this. I'll be good. I won't try to escape." "Eventually I am sure that will be the case, but until then we will have to take our own precautions." "But...but I WANT to be your woman, I really do!" she heard herself pleading. "Of course you do. And you are my woman, Miranda, for as long as I see fit." Seeing the fear in her eyes, he smiled broadly. "I take care of my women, eh ladies?" They tittered once again. "As a matter of fact, you are about to see what a generous man I am!" "Raoul," he said to one of the men standing nearby, "go and fetch Carlos and Sanchez." "What are you going to do?" asked Miranda, all semblance of self confidence gone. "I told you I am a generous man. I share my good fortune with my compatriots. I share my food, my money and...my women!" "No, please, no!" she begged. Two burley men came walking up to Vasquez along with the man sent to find them. "These are my good friends, Miranda. They are about to become your good friends too. Your VERY good friends!" She looked at them in near revulsion. The man who had run the errand looked thin and emaciated, but the other two were grossly fat and ugly. What teeth were left were badly discolored. The smell told her neither had had a bath in months. Dirt was caked on neck and clothes. Their breath was foul and Sanchez still had food hanging from his moustache. As her arms were pinned behind her by Sanchez, the other fat man, Carlos, ripped off her skirt and blouse. Others were gathering to watch. Carlos threw the rope over a high limb of a scrub pine, tied her arms at the wrists and pulled on the other end raising he arms high, her naked body exposed to one and all. A final yank before tying it off had her virtually standing on tiptoes. With a lecherous grin on his face, Carlos grabbed her by the hair, kissed her slobberingly and thrust his erect penis into her nest. Within seconds, Sanchez approached from the rear, reaching around and grabbing her breasts and plunging his shaft into her anus. She screamed repeatedly as both men thrust simultaneously. Begging them to stop, her sobs were met only with renewed vigor on their parts and her screams began anew. Finally, she felt their bodies jerk as semen poured into her body. Her nest and anus burned. "Now Miranda, how does it feel to be on the receiving end?" Vasquez asked smiling, his arms still around the three Mexican women. "I hate you!" she screamed, spitting at him. "Raoul, she has a smart mouth. See if you can teach her to use her mouth for more productive purposes." As Carlos lowered her by the rope, she was pushed to her knees. Her hair was jerked viciously, her mouth flying open in a gasp of pain and surprise. Raoul filled her mouth with his filthy penis. She gagged. He withdrew, slapped her hard, drawing blood in the corner of her mouth and, yanking her hair again, forced her mouth open, filling it again with his throbbing penis. Again she gagged. "No, I can't," she begged. She was hoisted back up and this time a burly man stepped forward with a bull whip and her shrieks pierced the air as leather met flesh repeatedly. Miranda was still writhing in pain as Raoul stepped forward again. "Ready now, Seņorita?" he asked with a leer. "No, never!" she screamed. Raoul stepped back and the man with the bull whip brought her screams again and again until her throat was raw and hoarse. her head hung limply as she teetered on the edge of consciousness, her back rapidly becoming a bloody crisscross of lash marks. "Now?" Raoul asked. Unable to answer, she shook her head with her last resolve of mind and body. Now the lashes came harder and more viciously, again and again and again. Blood ran down Miranda's legs and began to stain the dust at her feet dark red. Crazed with the pain, unconsciousness escaping her, Miranda surrendered, shaking her head in an affirmative manner. Her legs buckling, she swung by the wrists. Again she was lowered. Raoul approached. Miranda's mouth slowly opened and her eyes closed as his shaft found its warm and wet target. When he orgasmed, she again nearly gagged, but from the corner of her eye, she got a glimpse of the waiting bullwhip and so she swallowed the sickening fluid. "String her back up," ordered Vasquez, grabbing her hair and forcing her to look him in the eye. "I am feeling exceedingly generous tonight." he proclaimed. "Let every man in camp take her tonight in any way he wishes! Perhaps she will learn what it means to be the woman of a real man!" He and the three women laughed as they turned to leave. "Please... I..." "Yes, Miranda?" he said, turning back to her momentarily. "...I... BEG YOU!" she cried, closing her eyes to shut out the pain, emotional and physical. "It seems you have learned one lesson already this evening," said Vasquez. "Let's see what others you learn before dawn." He and the women walked away as Miranda wept bitterly. Her piercing screams filled the night air repeatedly.
