Be Mine Ch5

Nikki had no idea if she was awake or asleep, if she was alive, or if she was dead. All she knew was she could hear her thoughts, but nothing else. Wherever she was, it was completely silent, and it was in total darkness. She blinked several times as her eyes tried to adjust to the nothingness that seemed to be engulfing her. Over the next several moments, her other senses began to work and she began to figure out a little more about what was going on. The next things she realised was that she was seated in a chair. A chair with a long, thin back, long enough that she could lean her head against it. Thin enough that her arms could wrap around it from her seated position. This was the other thing she realised, that she couldn't move her arms in any major way. She struggled to gain some movement but without success. That limited movement convinced her that her wrists had been taped together behind the chair. She could feel the adhesive as she struggled and pulled against the tape, but it was so tight, and a lot of tape had been used to ensure that she wasn't going to be able to move her hands anytime soon. She pulled as much ash she can and lent forward until the pain in her shoulders stopped her going any further. As she laid back in the chair in frustration, her legs kicked up in reaction and she realised her ankles had been taped together too. She tried to pull against the tape there too, but although she was able to get her knees apart, her ankles didn't budge.

She thought long and hard about the events of the previous evening, although a lot of it seemed to be hazy for reasons she couldn't figure out. She didn't think she had drunk that much, she had made a point of not drinking too much. It was to try and avoid a repeat of the last time. So what happened, how did she get here? And where was here?

"Hello?" She called out. There was no response. No noise of any kind. "Hello? Is anybody there?" The lack of noise was scaring the hell out of her. There was no echo, so it wasn't a large room she was in and she was clearly indoors. But it made the silence deafening, and although she had no idea where the walls were, it didn't stop her from feeling like they were closing in, and closing fast.

"Hello? Anybody? Please? I need help! Help?" Nikki closed her eyes and hung her head as no response came for a few seconds, but what she heard scared her even more.

"There's nothing for you to fear my love. You're safe. Safe with me."

Nikki looked around, but there was still nothing to see.

"Who's there? Can you help me?"

There was no change to the darkness.

"You don't need help. There's only one thing that you will ever need, from now until forever."

Nikki thought she recognised the voice, but the way it came out was different to anything that she had heard from that person before.

"Stephanie? Is that you? What's going on?" Nikki heard the sound of a match striking, which was used to light a candle. From the light of the candle Nikki could see Stephanie's face, which was looking back at her, with an expression of what she thought was real joy, but to Nikki, Stephanie's smile, and her expression in general, was terrifying.

Stephanie walked around the room, lighting candles all around the room. Now Nikki could see that she was in a small room. Other than the chair she was in, there was a metal framed bed and two small tables. That was all there was, the walls were bare, the floor appeared to be made of stone with no coverings of any kind. There was a light above, but Stephanie didn't turn it on. She finished lighting the half a dozen or so candles and came back to stand in front of Nikki.

Stephanie put her face close to Nikki, who was looking for a way to move, but she was completely helpless to do anything but stay in the chair. Right before their heads met, Stephanie turned her head, and placed a single, tender kiss on Nikki's cheek. She then turned and sat on her lap, wrapping her arms around her neck.

"You see my love, you don't need help. There's only one thing you'll ever need, and I promise you'll never be without it again. I'm going to make sure of it."

This did nothing to ease the fear in Nikki's mind, and it showed in her eyes. "What's the one thing I need?"

Stephanie smiled and hugged the woman in her arms. "You really are so cute, you know that? You know what you need. You need me! And you've got me, for ever and ever, I promise. I love you so much."

"What are you talking about!" Nikki said, in a mix of anger and fear. "I don't have you, you don't have me, not in that way. I told you last night. I'm not yours, I never will be. Im simply not attracted to you, I'm not attracted to any women. Steph, listen to me, I'm not gay. I'm not a lesbian. I don't care that you are. You'll find another girl to make you very happy, but it's not me. Now really, these games aren't funny, it's really uncomfortable. Please take this tape off my wrists and ankles. I'd like to go home, I want to get some sleep, I've got things to do tomorrow before work Monday."

Stephanie's facial expression barely changed. Almost none of what Nikki said went into her head. If of what did, all but a little of it went straight out again.

"You're such a silly thing. It's already Sunday evening. You look so peaceful when you're sleeping that I couldn't bear the thought of waking you, even though I wanted to. So I just watched you sleep."

Nikki was getting more and more concerned. "You watched me sleep? Why? Why can't you understand what I'm saying? I'm not yours. I'm...wait...Sunday night? I slept nearly 24 hours? How? Did you give me something? Did you drug me?"

"Sweetheart, you make it sound like I tried to kill you. You just needed to calm down, you were saying crazy things. You were kidding yourself. I'm sad you still are, but I know you'll see what I see really soon."

Finding out she was drugged, having no memory of it and Stephanie acting like it was nothing was the worst thing yet. She began struggling against the tape binding both sets of limbs together once again, but it wasn't easy with Stephanie still sat on her, with no intention of getting off. Nikki found that struggling against the restraints on her wrists were getting more and more painful, as the skin on each wrist was blistering from rubbing together so much, plus the glue on the tape was hurting where it was in contact.

Feeling defeated again, she slumped back and stopped resisting. "What have you tried me with? Please Stephanie, take it off. Let me go."

"Don't panic my darling girl. It's only duct tape. I had to use something that I had handy. If needed, I will find something else. I can't take it off though. I really want to. But I need to know that you have seen what I know is true."

"What you know is true? Why are you speaking like that? Steph? Are you all right?"

"Sweetie, the only language I know is what I'm speaking. But when I talk to you, I speak from the heart, and there is no other way I'll ever speak to you, no matter what words come out."

Nikki looked away. "Stephanie, I'm sorry, but you're scaring me really bad. Please, will you just cut me loose from the tape and let me go home. I promise you that I won't tell anyone about this, but you have to let me go right now." Despite the demands, Nikki spoke softly, not wanting to rile up the woman who was the only one who could let her go.

"You have to understand Nikki, all of this is necessary to help you understand the truth. You're in denial, or you just haven't realised." Stephanie switched her position so she had help legs either side of Nikki's, basically straddling her in the chair. Stephanie's breathing got heavier in that position.

"Nikki, i know what you really want. I know what you want better than you do. I know that you must be feeling really confused, troubled, even maybe frightened. But I want you to know that it's ok for you to feel that way. I'm here, I'm always going to be here."

"You think I'm frightened? Of course I'm fucking frightened! I'm tied to a chair! Untie me!" Nikki didn't have the chance to keep shouting as Stephanie leant in and kissed her lips. She turned her head away to stop it, but Stephanie forced it back around and held it in place while she continued kissing her. Nikki could also feel her former friend begin to grind herself against her leg. Stephanie moaned as she kept kissing Nikki.

Nikki could do nothing to stop what was happening to her. Stephanie was way too strong for her.

Stephanie broke the kiss after a while, "Wow, every time I do that I feel butterflies. One day you will too you know. One day, one kiss, one moment that we share, and you'll realise what I already know. I am your one true love, your soul mate, and the woman you are going to spend the rest of your life with. I want to share my world with you, and I want to share my bed with you. But you refuse to admit the truth. You refuse to admit your feelings. Worst of all, you say you want to leave when deep down, I know you don't. Nikki, I'm never letting you go. One day you will figure it out. But until then, you'll have to stay down here in the basement. I never wanted you to see it down here, I was going to redecorate it as a guest bedroom, but I only got as far as, well, as you can see. But it's not all one way. You belong to me now, but I belong to you too. I'm at your command, as long as you never ask me to let you go. I can't do that. I can however do anything else, and I do mean anything." Stephanie said the last word as slowly and sexily as she could, grinding herself against Nikki once again. She laced Nikki's neck and shoulder with kisses. Nikki could feel Stephanie's crotch rubbing up and down her leg, and the fact that her panties were extremely wet, with the wetness transferring onto her leg.

Stephanie got more and more aggressive with her grinding, starting to moan and utter a few expletives as she got closer to her release. Suddenly her body started bucking wildly and Nikki felt a hot wet sensation rush over her leg as Stephanie reached her orgasm, collapsing over Nikki, completely spent.

"You are absolutely amazing my love. The best I've ever had. I can't wait to make love with you every night, every day for the rest of our lives. Nikki, I love you. I know you won't say it back, but I know you're feeling it." Nikki was staring daggers through her, and she knew it, but didn't care. "I think we should call that a night. It is a big day tomorrow after all. I hope you feel better in the morning. We can have a double celebration with everyone, toasting our love and the pizza contract. Of course, I'd choose you any day." Stephanie blew out all the candles, taking the last one up to Nikki, kissing her once more. "Goodnight my love." Were her final words as she took the candle up the stairs, leaving her captive in complete darkness.

Nikki was in a state of shock. "Stephanie! You can't leave me like this!" Nikki shouted. "Stephanie! Stephanie please! Come back! Let me go!." Realising that wasn't happening she changed her approach. "Help! Somebody help! Help me! Help! Please help me! I'm being held against my will! Help!"

After less than two minutes of this Stephanie heard the door open and this time the light came on. Stephanie came down and stood in front of her.

"Nikki...Nikki my darling. The only person who can hear you is me, there is nobody else close enough to make out what you're saying, and I want to sleep. You don't want me to get cranky because I didn't get enough sleep do you."

Nikki didn't answer so Stephanie continued. "I thought not, so I brought our helpful friend to make sure I get my rest." Nikki realised at this point that Stephanie was holding a roll of tape in her hand.

"No, no, you don't have to." Was as far as Nikki got. Stephanie tore a strip of tape off and stuck it over Nikki's mouth, smoothing it down at the sides.

"Whhhh yuuuu oooon" was all that Nikki could muster. This made Stephanie smile. She could see Nikki's lip outline, which she kissed again. "It's only because I love you." She said as she headed back up, putting Nikki back in the dark.

Nikki struggled further, trying to break the tape, slide a hand out, get her legs apart, anything that gave her a chance of escape. But there was none. She slumped back in the chair, mumbling against the tape.

She realised there was nothing she could do. Right this moment she was nothing but a prisoner. She felt a tear roll down her cheek. Stephanie said she was never letting her go. But that was for show right? She would let her go to work in the morning. She had to, they had the big pitch. But what if she didn't?
