The Pain of Love

Prologue

July 2014

I watched her get out of her candy red apple SUV with her friend and head into Carvels, her favorite ice cream spot located on the Grand Concourse in the Bronx. I had been watching her for a couple of months now. She was six years old the last time I had seen her. Her bitch of a sister took her away from me before I even got a chance to taste it...I think it’s about time I did.

It took me a while to find her, but I did. It happened when I caught her mama slipping. She appeared in my town, in Atlantic City with someone who I assumed was her boyfriend, gambling her life away like always. Anyways I decided to follow them around the whole week and what do you know...I end up back in New York.

I followed them to the home that we use to share...oh the memories. They ended up bringing me right to her.

Now here we are five months later, and I got her right where I want her. One thing she should have picked up from her big sis was watching out for her surroundings, because I definitely was watching it for her. The friend though is a distraction so she’s gotta go and I have no problem getting rid of the little bitch. I had everything prepared, I rented a house for six months. Enough time to do what I wanted to do.

To taste her, to feel her, to hear her begging me to stop...we all know when they tell you to stop they really mean go, and that’s what I tend to do. Go until I can’t go no more. Her sister used to beg me all the time to stop, gosh how that use to turn me on. My dick was getting hard thinking about what was to come. The way they fight you off, not knowing what they were doing to you. The cries, the calling out for help and for Jesus to save them. 

I pulled out my binoculars and watched them across the street in my rental, I made sure it had tents so no one could see me. She looked so beautiful like her sister...so delicate...so fragile...so vulnerable, yes this is going to be a treat. I couldn’t contain myself from excitement, and her friend is even more tempting, maybe I’ll have some fun with her too since she wants to be in the way.

I got out to check my trunk just to make sure all my equipment was there, and it was. Now we can get this show on the road. I watched as she and her friend were getting ready to exit. Their next stop would be their last, the library. I knew her routine so well it was ridiculous.

I pulled my duffle bag off the floor and proceeded to change into my security guard uniform. Once I finished, I pulled off and made my way to the.

Library. The closer I got the more excited I became.

I had to calm myself down, I didn’t want to make any mistakes.

Just as I pulled up, they were walking into the building. Everything was going according to plan. I drove around back to make an easy escape. The bathroom was right next to it, just the way I wanted it. I walked in and blended in.

I looked at my watch to check the time.

Any second now.

And like clockwork the girls came around the corner to use the bathroom like they do every Friday at 2pm. I walked pass them as if I were going somewhere else and soon as the bathroom door closed, I took my chance.

As I pushed the door open with my shoulder I walked in and noticed they were in the stalls. I had to make this fast because the real security guard would be at the end of the hall soon. As she walked out, I wrapped my chloroform rag around her face. She tried to fight me off, but I was way stronger than her. Her friend than stepped out and my Glock was pointed at her the same time.

Scream and you’re fucking dead.

I then pulled out my other chloroform-soaked rag and wrapped it around her face next. As they were both becoming unconscious, I decided it was time to move. I threw both of them over my shoulders and got the hell out of dodge. I threw them in the back seat and pulled off. 

I arrived in the alleyway, popped my trunk and pulled out my rope and duct tape. I tied them up and made my way to the house.

I brought them down to what I like to call my dungeon. I had this place built just for her, hopefully she likes it and appreciates the work I put in. Shoot it took me four months to create my dungeon she better like it. 

I locked their hands onto the cuffs that was attached to the wall. Just as I finished up, they were gaining conscious.

Where are we?

Your new home don’t you like it? I said, excitedly. I smiled so hard my cheeks started hurting.

What do you want from us Said her annoying friend. She sounded scared...good.

Everything. 

At that time, they both started screaming from the top of their lungs. I started laughing because what these little bitches didn’t know was that no one could hear them down here. I called it my dungeon for a reason.

Somebody help us!!!!!!! She screamed crying.

Then her stupid ass friend started crying too. I had enough, the damn yelling was giving me a freaking headache.

"NO ONE IS COMING!! NO ONE IS GOING TO SAVE

YOU...NOT FROM ME!!"

I pushed my head down and tried to swallow his whole dick down my throat, making myself gag a little. I lifted my head up as the saliva hung from my mouth, then I spit on it and sucked it some more. He loved when I got nasty like that.

Ma! he tried to pull me off because he was about to come in my mouth, and that’s just what I wanted him to do.

I’m about to bust! I can’t-
