Chapter nine

Since Leah was busy with preparing the ceremony, it was on Calderon to take care of the three new captives. So, with the help of two guards, he brought them to the cage where Emanuelle, Sandrine and Madalina were in. After all, he had promised the girls a reunion with their old friends.

The guards lowered down the cage and the three girls, who still were blindfolded, could hear some faint moaning. Or, at least, Dorothea and Sally could hear it.

The blonde was still angry about herself and that her cunning plan had failed so miserably. Now, she hadn`t even seen Don Bernardino DeRossi, for they hadn`t removed her blindfold when she had been in his office. They had, however, removed her ankle ties and the crotch rope and tied her wrists behind her back. Then, another rope had been tied around her neck and had been used as a leash to force her to walk after Calderon and the guards.

Sally, on the other hand, was thinking about possibilities of escape, but unfortunately, Calderon had remembered that at the auction at Paris she had been announced as „the little fighter“. So, instead of just tying her wrists, he had forced a tight leather armbinder over her arms, wedging her elbows together and trapping her arms from the shoulders to the tips of her fingers. It was kept in place by two straps that ran from the upper part over her shoulders, crossed between her breasts and went back under her armpits. Another strap was forced tightly around her waist and from this, a final thong went between her legs, bisecting her crotch and pulling on her bound arms. It had not been applied too tight to bear, but Sally knew that this would not come off without external help.

Unlike Dorothea and Sally, Josette had little experience in being abducted, bound and gagged and so, she had struggled and moaned all the way from the mansion to the big tree. Finally, the guard had lifted her over his shoulder and carried the flailing girl the last 100 yards.

When their blindfolds were removed, their eyes fell on a rather strange arrangement. Emanuelle, Sandrine and Madalina were more or less standing on weak legs, but it was clear that they would have collapsed if the heavy cage`s weight hadn`t been carried by a strong rope attached to it`s top. When Dorothea, who, being the tallest, could see the best, looked closer over the rim, she could see that it actually was like a big, horizontal hamster wheel. The cage had no roof or lid and the floor consisted only of two thick sticks that were crossing at an angle of 90 degree. This meant that the three inmates were sitting astride of these sticks with their legs dangling free – or currently standing on the ground – and had their arms and upper bodies tied to the cage`s bars in their backs.

„Mmmhhmmmph!“

Sandrine tried to communicate through her gag, but since there was a bandage wrapped around the lower half of her face, secured with leather thongs that also held her head to one of the bars, only a little moaning could be heard. Dorothea nodded towards her, showing an expression as if she wanted to say:

„Well, at least, we tried to rescue you!“

Emanuelle looked at her with sad, but slightly apathic eyes and Madalina seemed to be a bit distracted by the presence of Calderon. When Dorothea saw that the three captives were all stark naked and had a tight strap disappearing between their legs, she was sure what would be next.

„Do you think that this cage can take another three?“, Calderon asked. Smiling, the guard knocked on one of the bars:

„This wood is as solid as iron! This cage can easily carry a ton!“

„Well, Ladies, I won`t insult you by asking you about your weight, but anyway, you will now lose a few ounces of excess baggage.“

He grabbed Dorothea`s arm and pulled her close to the cage. Then, he cut the straps of her bra and pulled it away.

„Wow, that`s a pair of melons!“, one of the guards gasped, looking at Dorothea`s firm and ample breasts. Calderon reached under her armpits from behind and kneaded her boobs, causing her to mew.

„And they are not sagging either! However, I prefer hers!“

He let Dorothea go and turned his attention to Madalina`s breasts. The girl squealed and writhed in her bonds, but Dorothea could see that she also seemed to take Calderon`s interest as a strange kind of a compliment.

„Anyway, mine are slightly bigger and more firm!“

Involuntarily, Dorothea straightened her back and thrust out her boobs.

„Oh, look, she`s jealous!“

To her annoyance, the two guards now gave her breasts full attention. However, this was interrupted by an attempt of Josette to run away. The guard standing next to her just stepped on her rope leash and so, the girl was pulled back by a sharp pull on her neck and landed on her backside.

Now, one of the guards had an eye on Sally and Josette whilst the other one peeled down Dorothea`s panties.

„Now, I can see it`s some time since we saw last!“

To Dorothea`s embarrassment, he playfully brushed over the bristles of blonde pubic hair that had grown since her last shave. She could not help blushing all over when Calderon now slung a doubled up rope around her waist, brought the ends between her legs and tied that to a tight crotch rope. Then, he released the girl`s wrist and forced her to climb into the cage.

With little other chance, Dorothea sat astride the last free bar and her arms were tied like that of her companions. The space inside the cage was so narrow that their shoulders almost touched.
Smiling, Calderon now produced a bandage, a long leather thong and some white, lacy piece of cloth.

„How imaginative!“, Dorothea thought. She knew what being gagged with another woman`s panties meant and yet, Calderon seemed to be able to make this even worse. First, he took the pair of knickers and dabbed the sweat from the other captives. Then, he removed Dorothea`s cleave gag and took the gag from her mouth, but instead of replacing it by the used underwear, he wrapped the panties around the sodden wad and put one hand at the back of her neck to stuff the enormous gag into the blonde`s mouth.

„Uuuuuhhmmm!“

A throaty groan was all Dorothea could produce now. The new gag made her cheeks balloon and touched the back of her throat, triggering her gag reflex. When the bandage had been wrapped around her mouth and had been secured with the leather thong tying her head to the bar she was leaning against, she still was trying not to retch and to breathe through her nose.

„One down, two to go!“

He waved to the guard who simply grabbed Josette by her hips, lifted the struggling girl from the ground and heaved her over the rim of the cage. There, Calderon forced her to take the joint of the two crossing bars between her legs and tied her ankles together under them. Then, he pushed back the girl`s upper body. Josette now was sitting on two of the bats, or rather, she was dangling between these, for her butt wasn`t held by anything. Her shouders touched Emanuelle`s left breast and Madalina`s right, for she was sitting more or less between these two.

Now, Calderon took a pair of handcuffs and tied one cuff around Josette`s right wrist. The other end, he tied to Emanuelle`s crotch rope. When he connected her left wrist to Madalina`s crotch strap, Josette had already realized what she was tied like and tried desperately to find a position that allowed her to keep as much distance between her fingers and the other women`s private parts as possible.

„Uuuhhmmmmph! Mmmhhmmmph! Nnnnnggggg!“

Laughing, Calderon now cut away her bra and panties. Now, Josette even more tried to struggle and scream, causing Emanuelle and Madalina to squeeze her eyes when she tore on their crotch ropes. Now, Calderon slung a doubled rope around Josette`s waist, brought the ends between her open thighs from behind and threaded it through her rope belt below her navel. He brought the ends upwards and knotted them at the level of the girl`s breasts. Then, he treaded the ends through her armpits and tied them off to the cage`s upper rim. Now, this rope carried some of Josette`s weight, but whenever she would lower her body now, it would put additional pressure on her crotch.

„Mmmhhhrrrrrmmm! Uuhhhhhhmmm! Mph!“

„Of course, your gag, thank you for reminding me!“

Slowly, enjoying Josette`s pain, Calderon now cut away Sally`s panties and yanked them free from her tight crotch strap.

„Ah, so you got used to it“, he smiled, letting his index finger run over Sally`s clean shaven pubic mound. Sally shrugged, since the gag prevented her from any witty remark.

With considerable glee, Calderon now gagged Josette with Sally`s panties, together with the rag that had already been in her mouth. The little reporter fumed and screamed through the mouthfilling gag as it was secured by a bandage and a leather thong, too. In addition, she kept on squirming and wriggling, causing considerable discomfort to Madalina and Emanuelle.

„And now, for the little English, eh Scottish fighter!“

Sally nodded when Calderon corrected himself. She remained still when he removed her bra and when she had to sit opposite to Josette, she placed herself on the bars and tried to balance her weight on these. Now, the cage was really overcrowded. Sally`s knees touched that of Josette whilst her shoulders rubbed against the left breast of Dorothea and the right of Sandrine.

„At least, I`ve got some upholstery“, she thought.

Since Sally was wearing an armbinder, he could not tie her wrists to the other`s crotch straps and so, Calderon just tied her ankles together under the cage. Sally now had to concentrate on keeping her balance.

He removed her gag and stuffed the torn panties of both Dorothea and Josette into her mouth before he wrapped a bandage around her lower face and tied a last leather thong over that. Then, he bent over to Madalina and kissed her forehead.

„Maybe, if the situation has become a bit more quiet, we will find some time for each other. But now, just relax and enjoy the show. From your position, you will have an excellent view on the ceremony.“

Now, all three men had to work together to get the cage back to the top of the tree and the ropes and the hoist were aching from the weight. But once again, the guards ensured Calderon that the construction was stable and so, the three men went back for the mansion.

„Phew, what a work! Luckily, now, you are ready!“

Allison looked at her, but Leah wasn`t sure if the blonde American still was fully with her. The last hours had just been too much for her.

First, Juliette had washed her from head to toe. She had been gentle and had only touched Allison`s breasts or her womanhood when necessary. But obviously, even that had been quite an insult to Allison, according to her moaning and squirming. However, the washing had been just the preliminaries.

After that, both Leah and Juliette had creamed Allison`s nude body with oil and Leah had definitely touched and kneaded the blonde`s boobs just for jolly, too. Then, to Allison`s dismay, they had started to throw sand on her. Of course, this mixed with the oil and soon, she looked as if she had been breaded. Then, Leah drew something that looked like a miniature sabre and approached Allison.

„Nnnnngggg! Uuhhmmmm! Mmhhmmmm!“

„Silly girl, I know better about the Roman culture than you do! It`s a so called ,Strigilis`!“

Like the Romans in ancient times, Leah used that Strigilis to scratch the coat of oil and sand from Allison`s skin. It worked like a peeling and soon, Leah felt that the blonde`s skin had become smooth and soft. Satisfied, she now went for a razor whilst Juliette brought a bowl with foam and a brush in it.

„Now, hold still or suffer from the consequences!“

Though she whimpered through her gag and panted heavily, Allison managed not to move when Leah shaved her armpits. However, when Juliette brushed her pubic hair with foam, she bounced in her bonds.

„If that had been the razor, I would have cut you, silly girl!“

„Mmmhrrrrrrrmmm!“

Leah just waited with the razor in her hand. When Allison accepted that she could not avoid getting shaved there, she calmed down and Leah quickly, but thoroughly removed her pubic hair. Then, Allison was once more washed and oiled. This time, the oil was mixed with some gold dust and the blonde now gleamed in the evening sun.

„Almost perfect!“

Whilst Juliette now brushed Allison`s hair with energetic, yet gentle strokes, Leah placed a little table in front of her captive on which she put three bowls. Then, she filled them with three different liquids from her ragbag of potions and lotions and Juliette, who had finished Allison`s hair, fetched a stake and a hammer. When the little mulatta approached her, Allison thought for a terrible moment that Juliette intended to impale her. But the girl just put the top of the stake between her legs, bored it into the ground directly under her crotch and then, she started to hammer.

„Mph! Uhhmmph! Mmhmm!“

Allison protested through her gag as she felt the draft of Juliette`s hammer blows at her crotch, but the girl managed to get the stake in place without hurting her. When she was finished, the stick`s upper end was just touching her labia. With a grunt, Allison went on her tiptoes to avoid contact with the rough wood.

„Oh, of course, we don`t want you to get a splinter!“

To Allison`s astonisment, they took some abrasive paper and smoothened the end of the stake. Allison mewed with disgust when the backs of both women`s hands repeatedly touched her most intimate parts, but finally, there was no longer the danger she would hurt herself when she lowered her middle on the stake. Leah now took one of the bowls – the smallest of hte three – and approached her.

„This is a potion I developed some year ago. It`s what they call an aphrodisiac. Sometimes, it is enough to just make someone believe that he or she is under the influence of such a thing.“, she smiled when she remembered Sandrine`s involuntary performance earlier, „However, in your case, you will be so distracted by what will happen to you – after all, you will be turned into a real living dead – that I decided to sacrifice some of the real aphrodisiac. It works very simple. The more you absorb by the skin between your legs, the more you will get aroused. That is, unless you manage to stand on the tips of your toes for hours!“

Obviously, Allison wanted to try exactly that and she brought as much distance as possible between her labia and the rounded end of the stake that Leah now coated with some colorless liquid. Leah laughed when she saw the wild expression in the blonde`s eyes. Then, she and Juliette positioned themselves aside the table. To Allison`s dismay, the two women now reached under their tunics and removed their panties.

Playfully, they now approached Allison from two sides and waved the garments under her nose. The blonde moved her head from one side to the other, trying to avoid the fragrance of the sweaty underwear. Then, she rose as if something had poked her butt, when she had involuntarily moved down and touched the stake with her pussy.

Leah and Juliette now put the panties into the two remaining bowls, carefully soaking them with the liquid within. Then, the black spoke again:

„This“, she let her pair of panties dangle from one finger, „is a potion Juliette can tell you about. It reduces your body`s functions to almost nothing for days, but keeps your senses alive.“

„And this one here will help you to stay awake for at least four or five entire days!“

For the first time, Juliette had spoken. She shuddered slightly when she remembered her ordeal when Leah had used that very drug to punish her for letting the slaves escape. But now, she would be the one who would make others suffer.

Leah now handed both dripping panties to Juliette and approached Allison who was squirming and moaning with her last strength. She reached for the blonde`s long hair and wound it around her left before she yanked her head back as far as possible. With her right, she ripped the tape from Allison`s lips.

„Uuuhhhmmmmm! Mmhhmmmmmmm! Mmmhhmmph!“

Allison screamed through the rag in her mouth and desperately tried to push it out, but once she had succeeded in that, Juliette began to work both sodden panties between her lips. Leah assisted her and so, despite Allison`s struggles, she finally had both panties between her teeth and tried not to choke on them. She could taste something strange and her eyes bulged when she remembered the drugs Leah had talked about.

„Uuuhhhggggg! Gglllg!“

Allison tried to scream, but also, she tried not to swallow any of the liquid the two pairs of panties had been soaked with. Leah now took a beige leather band and pushed it between the blonde`s lips. Then, she tied the ends off at Allison`s nape with great ferocity, pulling at gthe corners of her mouth and pushing the gag even deeper into her throat. Whilst Allison tried to cope with her gag, Leah took another beige piece of leather and put it over the top of her head, like a headband. Indeed, it held her hair from her face, but when Leah brought the ends together under her chin, she could force the girl to bite down hard on her gag. Allison made gurgling sounds and two strands of saliva mixed with the potions dripped from the corners of her mouth. Leah tied the band`s ends together and Juliette quickly wiped the captive`s face.

All the time, the sound of the drum had been sent over the speaker and Leah now could see that the sun had almost disappeared. Quickly, she removed the little table and positioned herself beside the altar whilst Juliette enlighted some dozens of torches that had been placed around the altar and the two stakes Allison had been tied between.

Little later, more and more people began to fill the plateau. Now, the show could begin.
Many serious Voodoo priests would have said that Leah was just a charlatan, but to her, religion was first and foremost an instrument of power. The Black loved the power her position gave her – not only over the peasants, but over men in general, when she allowed them to get a glimpse of her beauty, but never to see her in the nude. But she also accepted that to keep her power, she had to cooperate with other powerful men – like the Don. And now, she had to do a little performance to consolidate both his and her position.

When she was sure that there weren`t more visitors coming, she started singing and whilst she and Juliette danced, the crowd answered by rhythmic chants. Then, when evryone was in the mood, Leah raised her hand and when the people had fallen silent, she spoke:

„This girl from the North has fought on our side, but now, she failed. And those who fail must be punished!“

She continued with a speech that emphasized the importance of obedience towards the gods and those the gods supported – like her or the Don. Also, she told some vivid examples of what happened to those who were disobediend. All this was meant only to allow the drugs working on Allison to unfold their effect. In the corner of her eye, she could see that Allison was squirming, but still from fear and not from arousal.

This time, Leah had used the real aphrodisiac. She had tested it on both Juliette and herself and she had been both satisfied and disappointed. Satisfied beacause the balm indeed forced any woman – even her – to forget about anything but sexual fulfillment. Disappointed because once a person had climaxed, it had lost it`s power. So, it was not meant for a long night of love and passion. But here, it would have the desired effect.

After another dance, during which Leah carefully watched if Allison showed the first signs of being on her way to ecstasy, she once again spoke to the crowd:

„The girl from the North is still obsessed by demons who have taken over her body!“

As on keyword, Allison reared up and let out a long, deep groan. Then, she began to squirm and spasm faster and faster. Obviously, the balm was coming to it`s full extend.

„These demons will only die if the person who carries them inside dies. However, if the gods are gracious, she will not die forever and rise from her grave!“

Leah knew she had to be careful now. Many of the people of Haiti had been baptized and a lot of them tried to combine Christianity and their old believes. If she promised an resurrection at the third day, this could hurt the feelings of many and make them consider her as just blasphemic. And so, she just initiated some rhythmic dancing on the spot whilst Allison was squirming in the throes of passion. Leah now took a rather short, but thick spear and started dancing around the bound blonde, faking to stab her, but always stopping some inches before she touched her body.

„Uuuuuuhhmmmmmm! Mmmhhmmm! Mph!“

Allison now literally pushed her pelvis against the stake`s end and with her eyes closed, she finally reached the peak. Whilst her body still spasmed uncontrolled, Juliette quickly removed the stake so Allison could not impale herself when she lost her consciousness. When the girl had collapsed and hung from the posts she was tied to, Leah gave some orders to the men in the first row.

Still fascinated by what they just had seen, some of them digged a hole whilst others freed Allison from her chains and placed her in a coffin Leah had prepared for the ceremony. On both long sides at the inside, there were rows of iron rings and once Allison was lying on her back with her arms by her sides, a very long, thin rope was threaded through these rings. It was like putting the laces through the eyelets of a boot and soon, Allison was tied to the bottom of the coffin and could only move her head – or at least, she could have moved it if she had been awake.
Helpful hands put the lid on the coffin and nailed it close. Then, Leah took the short spear and rammed it into the lid.

When she and Juliette had been alone, she had secretly marked a point at the lid where she would not hurt Allison if she pierced the lid. Besides, the spear looked hefty, but it was hollow at the inside. It would help to supply Allison with air once she was buried. This would work because after only some two feet, the diggers had found solid rock. It was impossible to cover the coffin they now lowered into it`s grave with more than some ten inches of earth. So, the spear would act as a snorkel, so to say.

Once the coffin was buried, Leah sent away the people after blessing them and warning them of what happened to those who fell victim to demons by no longer obeying the priests. Then, when she and Juliette were alone, she wiped some sweat from her forehead:

„Uff, sometimes I am thinking of retirement! But now, all I want is sleeping!“

Juliette seemed a bit disappointed and Leah played as if she had no idea what her maid was thinking about.

„Or, did you have something else in mind?“

„Well, there is still some of the aphrodisiac left, and you know it cannot be stored for long...“

„You are right, we should not waste such a rare substance“, Leah said with a smile. Then, she waved Juliette to fall silent and pressed her ear against the spear she had rammed into Allison`s coffin. When she concentrated, she could hear some faint moaning and grunting. So, since they had buried the girl some 30 minutes ago, she was getting enough air in her tiny prison. She nodded and reached for Juliette`s hand. Then, the two women disappeared into the little tent they had built near the altar.

***

During the last 24 hours, Nicole had changed from hating Maureen to more or less appreciating her, but that definitely did not include that she was tied up together with her and had her naked front pressed against Maureen`s equally nude body.

She had squirmed like an eel and desperately tried to get some space between her and her unwanted companion, but the carpet wrapped around them held their bodies tightly together. She had screamed through her gag and some blows of hot ait and little vibrations at her face had told her that Maureen was doing the same. Finally, exhaustion had forced them to stop for the moment.

Nicole had tried to work on her gag with her tongue, but it filled her mouth almost to capacity and besides, the layers of tape wrapped over her lips would have prevented her from spitting it out anyway. The gag felt smooth, but it tasted strange and she sensed some sweat and-

„Uuuhhggg!“

When her tongue explored some lace, she relized with horror that a pair of panties had been shoved into her mouth. Nicole retched when it came to her that it possibly weren`t hers, but Maureen`s. Fighting her gag reflex, she involuntarily gulped – only to swallow some of her saliva filtered by her – or Maureen`s? - underwear.

This humiliation caused another panic attack and she frantically squirmed in her cocoon and puled on her ties, screaming her lungs out. The heat hat caused both naked women to sweat and the slippery of both their bodies made some more movement possible, but all the time, they kept pressed against each other.

Then, another strange feeling came to her mind. First, she thought that once again Maureen would try to reach betwen her legs to work on their bonds. But then, she realized that the ropes connecting her bound wrists to her waist rope were massaging her middle, moved constantly by her and Maureen`s movements.

Suddenly, a memory from her last trip to the USA came to her mind. There, she had met with a young man who had been at her high school class and they had started kissing. After a while, his hand had found a way into her blouse and she had allowed him to do so. then, he had reached under her skirt and started to gently massage her pussy through her silk panties. After some time, Nicole had interrupted him and left the party, but the feeling had not been an unpleasant one and when she had visited the bathroom little later, she had discovered a wet spot at the front of her panties.

„How can I think of such things now?“, Nicole scolded herself, „I am kidnapped by some thugs and I am tied against my stepmom!“

However, the ropes felt almost like human fingers – almost. The hemp of course was a bit rougher, chaffing the soft flesh between her legs. Besides, these ropes did not belong to someone who finally withdrew when she demanded it.

„Silly girl, of course, you are controlling it!“, she told herself.

Actually, that wasn`t the whole truth. Since the ends of the crotch rope were tied to Maureen`s waist rope, her movements had some effects, too. So, the only chance to not increase the strange touch was to lie perfectly still. But lying at the load area of a moving van, helplessly bound and pressed against another woman`s nude body, was contraproductive to lying still and the fact that both women were covered with sweat and also scared didn´t help the matter. Being bound, gagged, blindfolded and with their ears plugged, they were condemned to concentrate on their thoughts, emotions and fears.

The ropes also were pulled into the cleft between her buttocks. The rubbing there felt strange, but not unpleasant. It-

„Mmmhhmmph!“

Maureen had made a sudden move, or perhaps, the van had just hit a bump. Whatsoever, the pull on the ropes had taken Nicole by surprise and now, she felt that the hemp was teasing her from the inside.

„Nnngg! Mmhhmmph!“

She shifted her pelvis, trying to dislodge the irritating ropes, but this only increased the chaffing. Nicole accelerated her moves and she felt the ropes tighten when Maureen obviously tried to hold against it. She moved her bound wrists and soon, it was like a strange game – a game that more and more slipped from the control of it`s players.
