“Just so you know upfront, our marriage won’t be exclusive. I get to fuck other women and you are definitely going to fuck other guys.” By the bulge in his pants, she could see that he was hard. Not only evil and crazy, it turned out he was sick as well.

He pulled the tape and broke off a piece using his teeth. Then he kneeled beside her. Candy turned her head away, trying to avoid him but Ellis gripped her by the jaw with his good arm and slapped the tape over her mouth. He pushed down hard.

“Just remember,” he whispered against her ear. “The harder you fight, the more he’ll enjoy it. This guy is a freak.”

Pure terror gripped her. Her nostrils were wide as she struggled to breathe. She fought against her restraints until her hands felt raw.

Ellis opened the door. She heard him greet someone. Then footsteps. “She’s ready for you,” he said.

“Do you have a pair of scissors like I asked?” she heard the guy say.

“Yeah, but”—Ellis paused—“I’m not so sure…”

The stranger laughed. “Don’t worry, I won’t hurt her… I like to cut off their clothes.”

Oh god! This wasn’t happening.

“No hitting or biting.” Of course not. Ellis would hate to see one of his merchandise items broken.

The guy chuckled as they entered the bedroom. Candy was on the floor. The guy was really short, and skinny. His hair was thinning on the top. His whole look screamed nerd. His eyes widened as he spotted her. She read excitement in their depths.

“Shit!” He sighed. “Her eyes. Oh man!” He put a hand over his mouth. “Look at that fear. I could almost swear this was real.”

“You paid good money so you got my best.” Ellis leaned against the door and folded his legs across each other, looking so relaxed. “Oh, I need to give you this.” He threw the guy a bottle and she realized that it was lube. Then he handed the guy a string of condoms.

Candy felt ill.

“I know you’re going to be rough and I wouldn’t want you to tear or bruise her. You have to wear a condom. No glove no love.” He laughed at his own joke.

The guy nodded, looking enthusiastic. “Sure thing. I’ll use the lube and the condom. No problem.”

“One last thing.” Ellis smiled. “I’m staying… just to be sure.”

“What?” The guy didn’t look happy.

“I’m staying,” Ellis repeated. “I’m watching.”

The guy shook his head. “I don’t know if…”

“I can’t leave my best girl with you, like this.” He pointed up and down the length of her. “You wanted her tied up and gagged. No problem but I wouldn’t be able to hear her shout for help if you got a little rough. I need to stay and watch.”
