Flash Fiction Friday #8: "Captured"


She raised her head, weakly, as she floated back to consciousness. Agony flooded through every pore and she inhaled for a scream. The hard core of rubber in her mouth prevented even that elemental release.

Stretched, pinioned with chained shackles at each extremity, splayed in a horrible reminiscence of “Vitruvian Man”, she hung exhausted in the prison of her pain.

And yet....

Wetness ran down her legs, her traitor body responding to the sensations awakened inside her. Images skirled through her mind, how he had taken her to the deepest depths and the most dizzying heights.

She wanted more...

(This, though a bit darker than my usual tastes, is my entry for Spanky and Tiggs's Flash Fiction Friday Challenge #8: 100 words on the photo shown above. Want to play too? Then stop by and check out the guidelines.)

    Oh my, that was intense. Definitely darker but well written.

    Gray, Temptress: Thanks! I'm glad it was to your liking. It made me a bit uneasy to write because the severe pain / BDSM thing really isn't my cup of tea, but hey...gotta try new and different things sometimes.

    Spanky: Hm. This dark piece seems to be resonating rather strongly with a lot of people. I wonder what that says about us?

    Thanks for commenting!

    Sadie: This one seems to have struck a chord with a lot of people for some reason. I guess there's a demand for the darker stuff....hmm.

    Anyhow, thanks for stopping by and for the nice words!
