A scene of rape, humiliation and restraint as seen through a narcotic, dreamlike haze. |

A short like this, is too often been disregarded as shallow trash, because there's no beginning and no ending, no explanations, no apparant reason for the story itself.
People who do that, have no imagination. Or at least, don't use that imagination.
On the other hand, a story like this, without being shallow trash, serves only one purpose, and that's to show the author's skill. The skill to paint a picture with words. One of dark forboding, of struggle, both in the mind as in the flesh.
Where the story doesn't do itself justice here, is in the fact that the being of the 'victim' is not clear. The being is devoid of passion, of feelings.
As such, the reader is left with an empty feeling, not being able to cope, to understand. For there is nothing to understand. There's just two undefined, or ill-defined, creatures, living off of each other.
The 'victim' has no other purpose than act as a conduit fot the assailant, while the assailant is only there to fill a void for the 'victim'.
But still, there's a hint of foreknowledge, that predator and prey know each other.
I guess in the end it can all be written down to a dream, a nightmare, a fleeting moment between sleep and awakening, the embers of the dream floating away through the ceiling towards eternal skies as awareness sets in.
Who knows.

Very intense short piece. Too much mood, not enough emotion. Very detached narration from a sub's viewpoint. The top has no concern for her health or safety. Almost a prison scene except for the S&M trappings. (7/10)

- Thank you for reviewing my story. You nailed it all down pretty well. Yes, you are right: no apparent emotion, all in the mood. It was meant to be short, violent and confusing. Thaks once again.
