27: A Kinky Night is a Quiet Night

“Hey, sweety…”

“M…Mom?!” Caitlyn stuttered, quickly closing the gap between them with a quick step, before hugging her mother Terra. Tears streamed down her cheeks and she began to sob. Her mother gently hugged her and rocked her in her arms.

“Hey... hey. It's okay. I'm back,” Terra whispered, stroking her daughter's back and hair, ”It's all right now, honey.”

“Mom, I missed you so much and I was so worried about you,” Caitlyn howled and hugged her mother tighter, as if she was afraid she might disappear again.

“Whew, you've gotten so strong,” Terra gasped as she caught her breath and Caitlyn giggled briefly between her sobs. She sniffed the air loudly and finally released her embrace. Caitlyn looked past her mother and saw Phoebe and her girlfriend Jade, who nodded at her.

“Thank you! I owe you everything!“ Caitlyn said, going past her mom to give Jade a kiss and a hug, ‘Thank you!’

”You're welcome,” Jade murmured, ”but Phoebe actually saved us. Without her...”

Caitlyn let go of Jade and looked at Phoebe with wide eyes before she also embraced her.

“Wow, I didn't expect that!” Phoebe exclaimed, patting Caitlyn's back.

“Thank you, Ms. Wynters. You've already done so much for me and my friends. How can we ever repay you?” Caitlyn asked and took a step back.

“It would be cool if you didn't erase my memories. I have a feeling I'll need them if I want to catch Judy and Maike,” Phoebe said and handed Caitlyn a small vial of a silvery liquid. She swirled the forgetting serum around briefly as it awakened not-so-happy memories in her and gave it to her mother. Terra looked at it for a moment before putting it in her pocket.

"This serum has served us well in the past and will continue to do so if little miss has to show the neighbors how to water the garden with magic again. But certainly not with you, Ms. Wynters. Rilliana taught me the formula after we found out that Caitlyn had the gift. It's was very useful, but I think Ms. Wynters has proven herself trustworthy and our top priority should be to hunt down Maike and Judy. But!” Terra said, raising a finger and grinning, ”Please don't tell anyone about us, or I'll have to send my guys after you.

“Hahaha, don't worry,“ Phoebe said and waved it off, ‘But I really have to go now. See you. Jade, are you coming?’

”Yes, in a minute,“ Jade said and kissed Caitlyn goodbye.

”Do you really have to go again,” Caitlyn whispered and Jade nodded.

“These magically gifted ones should leave you alone for now, besides, what would your friends say if I ate you up during the night?“ Jade asked with a broad grin, looking over Caitlyn's shoulder at Summer and Ava, who were coming around the corner.

”You're so ridiculous, “ Caitlyn murmured, blushing, ”See you soon.”

“See you soon,” Jade repeated and followed Phoebe to her car. Caitlyn watched her for a moment longer until Terra put a hand on her shoulder.

“Come on, let's go inside, your guests are surely waiting for you,” she said gently, pushing Caitlyn into the house and closing the door. She took a contented breath and then looked at Ava and Summer, who still didn't quite know how to react.

“I see you've found your old friends again. My, how you two have grown,“ Terra said, pressing Ava and Summer to her chest as if they were two stuffed dolls.

”It's nice to see you again too, Ms. Taylor,“ Ava said shyly, while Summer returned the embrace warmly.

”How long has it been now? Six years?”

“Nine, Mom,“ Caitlyn said, and Terra coughed uneasily.

”Oh, I'm sorry. Maike didn't give me a calendar, unfortunately,“ Terra said and let go of the two women.

”Nice necklace, by the way,“ Terra commented and pointed at the shiny metal ring around Ava's neck. She blushed immediately and reached for it.

”Is that just a fashion statement or is there someone there?”

“A bit of both,“ Ava mumbled, embarrassed.

”I see,” Terra said, changing the subject when she realized that Ava didn't want to talk about it anymore, ”Where is Luke and my husband, anyway? He didn't get a divorce, did he?”

“Ummm,“ Caitlyn said, a bit taken aback by the question, but she shook her head and said, ‘Luke is with friends... he... isn't having an easy time right now and Dad is on a business trip.’

”Again?” Terra asked, and Caitlyn nodded, ”And Luke?”

“His girlfriend broke up with him. It wasn't very nice, apparently,“ Summer said, and Terra put on a compassionate expression.

”My poor boy... then we'll have to help him up again, won't we? But as long as he's still with friends...,” Terra looked briefly at Ava, Summer and Caitlyn and their pajamas, ”You wanted to have a little sleepover, didn't you?”

“Well, not nece...“ Caitlyn wanted to say, but Terra interrupted her.

”No, no. I would have done that too, in your place. But then I don't want to get on your nerves for long. Is Rilliana present right now?“

”Not only her,” Caitlyn said and grinned from ear to ear.

“Don't tell me the other two have finally arrived too?” Terra said, smiling contentedly, ”It's about time. A few more years and I would have thought Celine was doing it on purpose.”

“Do what on purpose?“ Summer asked curiously, but Terra's mouth suddenly closed, and she looked thoughtfully at the pink-haired girl.

”They already know, Mom,” Caitlyn said, walking past her mother to stand next to Ava and Summer. Terra looked at both women for a moment, but then she nodded and scratched her forehead with a finger

“On purpose, getting stuck between times longer than me. Celine was actually a bit older than me when we met and now... “ Terra said simply and ruffled Caitlyn's hair. Summer frowned as more questions popped into her head. Terra didn't explain further and started smiling again, “Anyway, now I'm going to give you a cozy slumber party, all right? That's the least I can do to visit Celine and maybe have my own sleepover with her.”

"Mom, you really don't have to...”

“No, no. Let me do this for you and then you'll be rid of me. Your room is still upstairs?“

Caitlyn nodded and her mother went upstairs.

”What's she doing?” Ava asked curiously and Caitlyn breathed a sigh of relief, a little annoyed but happy nonetheless.

“Redecorating my room. She often did that when we lived outside of town. It was always the highlight of my youth. Jade loved it too, but now... um,” Caitlyn said, but she was interrupted when sparks flew into the hallway and down the stairs.

“Really great what you did with your room, honey,“ Terra said as she came out of the room and descended the stairs.

”You can do magic too?“ Summer asked curiously.

”Yes, yes! Where do you think Caitlyn got her talent from?” Terra asked, hugging her daughter when she arrived downstairs.

“Thanks, mom,“ Caitlyn whispered, embarrassed, and her mother gave her a kiss on the forehead.

”Don't do too much mischief and leave the house in one piece. See you tomorrow.“

”Bye!“ Caitlyn Ava and Summer said as one, and waved goodbye to Terra.

”What did your mom do?” Ava asked again, and Summer nodded eagerly.

“Did she turn it into a BDSM room?“ Summer asked, catching some strange looks in return.

”Um... no. I want the hobby as far away from my mother as possible,” Caitlyn murmured, blushing deeply as she remembered a few days when she hadn't succeeded in keeping it that way, while Ava gave Summer a slap on the back of the head.

“Ow!“ Summer said, playfully sticking out her tongue.

”She just made it a bit more comfortable, come on, I'll show you,” Caitlyn said, beckoning her friends behind her. They went up the stairs and into her bedroom, where Ava and Summer's mouths dropped open. The whole floor and all the walls had been covered with soft mattresses. Even the furniture had been covered with them and stood in the corners, leaving a huge area in the middle of the room. On the floor were three sleeping bags and cozy blankets and pillows. In the middle of them were chips, chocolate and drinks.

“Your mom does realize we're all over twenty, right?” Ava remarked, but she was pushed aside by Summer as she threw herself on the pink sleeping bag and romped around on it.

“SHE'S TRANSFORMED YOUR ROOM INTO A RUBBER CELL! THIS IS EVEN BETTER!” Summer shouted, and Caitlyn opened her eyes in horror as Summer had kinkyfied her fondest childhood memories with one sentence.

“Don't be angry with her. After all the crap that's happened in the last few weeks, she needs a little fun, even if it is kinky,” Ava whispered, ”I came to terms with it myself when I was tied up by your girlfriend.”

“Sorry about that again,“ Caitlyn said, but Ava waved it off.

”It was fun... until we were attacked,” she said, sitting down on the red sleeping bag next to Summer. Caitlyn herself lay down on the dark blue one and opened the bag of chips, which she then handed to Ava. Meanwhile, Summer opened the coke, which Caitlyn immediately took from her.

“Are you crazy? I'm not going to let you hyperactive thing drink a Coke!“

Summer stared at Caitlyn with her mouth open until she started laughing.

”I'm just kidding, you should see your face!” Caitlyn said while Ava choked on the chips and started coughing and laughing loudly.

“Hahaha, very funny,“ Summer said sarcastically, but she also grinned as she took a drink from the coke, ‘But ladies, let's get down to business. What are we going to do at this hopefully unforgettable sleepover?’

”We could watch a movie?” Ava asked hopefully. Summer and Caitlyn turned their heads very slowly to Ava.

“I'm kidding,“ Ava quickly said, seeing the glint in Summer and Caitlyn's eyes.

”Caitlyn? I think we should show Ava your bondage collection.“

”Couldn't agree more, my dear,” Caitlyn said, nodding, ”My things are in the closet, I'll grab them!”

With a leap, she jumped over the candy on Ava and both rolled through the momentum over the soft floor until Caitlyn was on top of her, pinning her to the ground. What made her suspicious, though, was that Ava grinned from ear to ear.

"What? I have you and in a moment you'll be our belated Christmas present!”

“You don't think I just lost, do you?“ Ava said while Summer got the ropes out of the closet.

”Do you? How does the little cheerleader plan on holding out against the best rookie in the LCPD?“ Caitlyn asked, amused.

”It's easy,” Ava said, and Summer froze in her tracks as she realized what Ava was planning, ”GREED!”

Suddenly, the collar around Ava's neck dissolved and flowed down her neck and over her arms. A moment later, latex bands appeared from her sleeve and wrapped around Caitlyn's wrists. Shocked, she looked at her hands for a moment before being pulled backwards by the bands and hanging from them in the air.

“What the...?“ Caitlyn asked in surprise and tried to struggle against the ropes, but to no avail.

”You're not the only one who knows a few tricks!“ Ava declared triumphantly, shaking Caitlyn gently back and forth.

”What is that?” Caitlyn asked. ‘Can you also...’

Ava shook her head.

“This is Greed. One of Summer's experiments fell on me last year and bonded with my cheerleader uniform and everything else I was wearing that day. So now he's some kind of a mimic? A shapeshifter? Summer and I aren't quite sure yet. But a lot of what we've experienced can now be explained a bit more understandably, even though my head is still spinning from this magic thing.“

”Hoooooooo,“ Caitlyn said as Summer appeared next to her, holding a stack of ropes.

”Come on, let her down, Ava, that's not fair,” Summer said with a grin, and Greed plopped Caitlyn onto the floor.

“Fair? She can do magic!“

”Not well.“

”Surely, that's why there's a magical girl outfit in the closet.“

”I promise I won't use magic today unless we do something with it.“

”All right, but... I'll only let you tie me up if I allow it,” Ava demanded, crossing her arms.

“It's okay. I want to see how good Caitlyn is,“ Summer said, throwing some ropes to Caitlyn and the rest on the floor.

”I'd be happy to,“ said Caitlyn, ”In pajamas?”

Summer nodded and said, ”I think latex is not quite the right theme for a pajama party.”

”But bondage?” Ava asked with a raised eyebrow.

“Sure, it's a classic at every slumber party,“ Caitlyn shrugged, and Summer added, ‘How do you think Chloe and I got so good at tying each other up?’

”Aaaaaall right. I don't need to hear this right now. I need a little break and to think about whether I'm going to join in.”

“Aww Ava, but…“ Caitlyn started, but Ava interrupted her.

”Cait, just give me a few minutes, okay? I just need to take care of Greed. The fight was hard for him and… he needs a little attention. After that, we'll see,” Ava explained kindly and Caitlyn nodded.

“Okay, but...“ Caitlyn began pleadingly, but Summer shook her head.

”Take care of me first or I'll take the ropes in hand.“

”All right, all right,” Caitlyn laughed, beckoning Ava, who now went into the bathroom across the hall, and soon they could hear water running into the bathtub.

“Sooo, you and Chloe did a lot of sleepovers?“ Caitlyn asked, stroking down Summer's body as she knelt. Summer wiggled her butt in front of Caitlyn's face, and she had to give it a clap.

”Ow!”

“Come on, tell me. I have to think of a bondage that you can sleep with afterwards,” Caitlyn demanded, tying Summer's hips with a sling.

“Do you remember Bruce?” Summer asked, looking back, but Caitlyn shook her head while pulling a rope between her legs, but to the left and right of her crotch, ”Ah okay, then I know where to start. So, after you moved out, Chloe met this Bruce. Real asshole, by the way. Because of him, she almost lost her way.”

Caitlyn furrowed her brow as she weaved a rope harness around Summer's waist and legs.

“Bruce... Wait... That rings a bell... Not that gangster from Falenplaza?”

"Oh yes, exactly.”

“Fuck. My instructor warned me about him... he's got so much dirt on him, but he always slips through our fingers, and she really was with him?“

”Yes, that was... not a good time. She skipped school and we hardly saw each other anymore and slowly... she wasn't herself anymore, you know?”

Caitlyn nodded while she motioned for Summer to kneel on the floor and started to tie her hands to the rope harness.

“And then?”

"And then she showed up at my doorstep in the middle of the night. With tears in her eyes, but the will to change. I let her in and well... until she moved out again, we had bondage sleepovers almost every night. The house had enough room for both of us and while I was at school and college, she worked,” Summer told her, while Caitlyn tied her upper body to fix her arms as well.

“Did you take rent?“

”Yup, but just a little bit and when she wanted to move out, I gave her all the money back and doubled it so she could choose something nicer and not have to move back to Falenplaza."

Caitlyn laid Summer on her back and started to tie her legs at the ankles and knees.

“That was very noble of you,“ Caitlyn said, looking at Summer for a moment, but Summer shook her head.

”The least I could have done.“

”Test your bonds,” Caitlyn urged, and Summer looked down at her body first. None of the ropes cut too deeply into her skin and Summer thought she could lie around like that for a while. Around her waist was an elaborate rope harness that served as an anchor point for her hands and at the same time pressed lightly into her crotch, but without disturbing her. Her breasts were framed by even more ropes, so that they stuck out through her pajamas. Summer doubted that she could easily escape from the ropes, but that wasn't the goal today, and she nodded contentedly.

“You've learned a lot.“

”Jade is a good teacher,” Caitlyn said with a smile, picked Summer up and put her on the pink sleeping bag, ”I'll see what Ava's doing.”

She stood up and was about to leave the room when Summer called out, “WAIT!”

Caitlyn turned around immediately, as if stung by an adder, and looked at Summer, fearing that something had happened to her.

“Can you pass the chips?” Summer asked, grinning broadly, and Caitlyn rolled her eyes and threw one of the bags of chips onto her belly.

"I meant open!”

“What did you say, Summer?“ Caitlyn asked with one hand on her ear, pretending not to have heard her friend.

”HAHAHA!“ Summer laughed sarcastically as Caitlyn knocked on the bathroom.

”Ava?”

No answer. Caitlyn frowned and knocked again. Still no answer. Worried, she pushed down the latch and saw that the door was open.

“Ava, I'm coming in!” Caitlyn called out and entered the bathroom, covering her eyes with one hand. Immediately, she was hit by a surge of hot, humid air and stepped into a huge puddle on the floor. Its source was the bathtub, and it had spread throughout the bathroom until it finally disappeared into the shower drain. It was so warm and humid that Caitlyn thought she was standing in a jungle.

“Oh, come on, Ava,” Caitlyn muttered, annoyed, and looked up. She gasped when she finally saw Ava and stumbled back. She pushed the door closed in her fright and held on to the wall while trying not to lose the strength in her legs. Ava was stuck to the wall above the bathtub. A blue, slimy mass had spread over her body. Except for her hair and the upper half of her face, she was completely covered in tentacles and mucus. Her eyes were rolled back in her head and she moaned with pleasure as one of the tentacles pushed into her mouth and another into her crotch.

"AVA!”

Only now did Ava seem to realize that Caitlyn was also standing in the room and she blinked in confusion, quickly turning to panic and starting to struggle against the tentacles with a crimson head.

“WAIT, I'LL HELP YOU!” Caitlyn shouted when she saw that Ava was getting scared and ran towards her. She hadn't even taken two steps towards her when a tentacle detached itself from the mass and shot towards Caitlyn. It hit her bluntly in the face and threw her back against the door. The house shook loudly and Caitlyn groaned into the tentacle as she was pushed against the hanging towels. The young policewoman briefly saw stars and was about to raise her arms to tear the sticky tentacle away from her, but suddenly she was twisted around, causing the tentacle to wrap around her body. Her arms were pinned against her chest and she was hanging an arm's length above the bathtub within seconds. Ava's eyes widened as Caitlyn's spun around. She finally managed to release one of her arms from the slimy tentacles and grabbed the one in her mouth and pulled it out hastily.

“Cough... Cough... Greed, you idiot! Caitlyn is a friend! Let her go at once!” Ava commanded, and immediately Caitlyn plopped into the bathtub, causing a wave to splash onto the bathroom floor. Coughing, she jumped out of the hot water, and her pajamas were streaming with water. Ava herself was gently lowered into the water. Greed's tentacles retreated and all traces of him disappeared, reforming the collar around Ava's neck. Hastily, Ava climbed out of the tub and bent down beside Caitlyn, who was kneeling on the tiles, trying to recover from the shock.

“What the hell was that, Ava?“ Caitlyn asked, patting her chest to cough up the last bit of water.

”I'm sorry, I should have locked the door,” Ava apologized, patting Caitlyn's back.

“Don't avoid my question, Ava!“

”I uuuh...fed Greed...I think,“ Ava said guiltily, helping Caitlyn up and sitting her on the toilet.

”You think?” Caitlyn asked, gesturing at the bathtub to stop Ava from letting more hot water into it.

“Well... I didn't exactly get instructions for him. Long story short, during the fight against those... mages, Greed went out of his way to protect me. As thanks, I allowed him a bit more than usual,“ Ava explained, blushing. Caitlyn looked at her in disbelief.

”But you like that?”

Ava blushed even more and nodded shyly. Caitlyn had never seen her like this before.

“Well... it's not like it's... far from ordinary... bondage, is it?” Ava stammered, and Caitlyn frowned.

“Ava... I'm not judging you. I just wanted to know if you're okay. But it is,” Caitlyn said, getting up shakily. She opened her arms and wanted a hug, which Ava didn't return, when she suddenly realized that she was standing completely naked in front of her friend. She hastily covered her shame and turned around, which made Caitlyn laugh.

“I'll go back first, we've kept Summer waiting long enough,” Caitlyn said and took off her own soaking wet pajamas, replacing them temporarily with a large towel, ”The pajamas I lent you got very wet too.”

“It's okay, I, um, Greed's got it,“ Ava murmured, and sure enough, tentacles grew out of her collar, wrapped around her body, and finally formed a red satin pajama set.

”That's kind of cool,” Caitlyn murmured, and she saw how Ava's pajamas briefly wrapped around Ava's body more snugly, and she started grinning.

“Greed says thank you,“ she explained, blushing again.

”He's talking to you?“

”Not...really...I just understand him, know what he means. Feels...“ Ava murmured, looking thoughtfully around the steamy bathroom.

”Mmmmh. Well, if you need anything else, I'll go back and check on Summer.”

Caitlyn opened the bathroom door to go back to Summer, but when Ava wanted to follow her, Caitlyn held her back.

“Don't you want to clean up the flood first?” she asked with a raised eyebrow, and Ava looked guiltily over her shoulder. The huge puddle had now spread throughout the bathroom and was even threatening to come through the door into the hallway.

“Sorry,” Ava mumbled sheepishly and took a squeegee from the wall. Still blushing, she began to push the worst of the water into the shower. Meanwhile, Caitlyn went back to her padded room and exhaled deeply with her eyes closed.

“Sorry for the little break, Summer, but Greed...” Caitlyn began, but she fell silent when she saw the chaos Summer had made while she was gone. Chips were scattered everywhere, and most of the chocolate was half on the plates and half on Summer's face. The pink-haired girl was just trying to pour herself a glass of cola, which was quite an adventurous endeavor with her hands tied. She looked up in surprise when Caitlyn entered.

“Hey Cait, nice towel. Just wait a second, I'll get it,” Summer said, while she slowly tipped the bottle to hit the glass half a step down on the floor. Caitlyn took three quick steps towards Summer and snatched the bottle out of her hand before she spilled the whole contents all over the room. She flicked Summer on the forehead.

“Ow!“

”Where do you two think you are?“ Caitlyn asked, knocking Summer over, who fell backwards and hit the soft floor, which cushioned her fall and allowed her to jump again.

”You said feel at home,” Summer said cheekily, and Caitlyn narrowed her eyes into slits.

“You're lucky it's a slumber party and not a bondage party, or I'd have you hanging from the ceiling for the rest of the evening,” Caitlyn threatened, pouring Summer a glass of cola before bringing it to her lips. Summer suddenly had the feeling that Caitlyn was radiating a very dominant aura and that she should behave better. She took a few hesitant sips, glancing up at Caitlyn. When she had finished, Caitlyn wiped Summer's mouth clean with a napkin.

“Thanks,” Summer mumbled, and Caitlyn just nodded.

“Are you going to keep mocking me?“ Caitlyn asked gently, while Ava entered again and watched amusedly as Summer shook her head quickly while she was in the police woman's arms, ‘Well then, hopefully we can all relax now. Ava, how does it look?’

”The bathroom is dry.”

“I meant, if you want to be tied up,“ Caitlyn corrected.

”Oh, um... sure, looks cozy,” Ava said, rubbing her hands nervously. She hadn't forgotten what Jade had told her about Caitlyn's behavior when she was in the dominant role.

“Buuuuut just tie me up!“

”Sure,” Caitlyn said, dropping Summer onto the soft floor. She grabbed some ropes from the floor and went to Ava, who now took a surprised step back.

“Don't you plan on getting dressed first?"

Caitlyn looked down and now it was her turn to blush, still standing in her bedroom wearing only a towel. Immediately her dominant aura was gone and she looked embarrassed at Summer, who was grinning broadly again.

“That's... a good idea,” Caitlyn murmured, and she walked over to her closet, opened it and looked for her spare pajamas. Her hands slid over one of her latex catsuits, but she shook her head and continued her search.

“Where is...?“ she asked with mounting frustration as she searched in vain for her second set of pajamas. Then she remembered that she had lent one to Ava and that it might need to dry and go to the laundry first. Exasperated, she let out a sigh.

”You forgot that you lent it to me, didn't you?” Ava asked, amused, and Caitlyn nodded.

“Then you'll have to wear latex, Caitlyn. I guess there's no way around it,” Summer said innocently, but Caitlyn waved it off. She was about to reach for a shirt and underwear when her eye fell on a black and green garment.

“Tell Ava... you and Greed... you're something like superheroes, right?“ she asked, while she took the neatly folded catsuit but hid it behind her back.

”Well... sort of?“, Ava said cautiously.

”What do you think about a little game? Or a training session, rather?”

“Now? At this time of the evening?!“ Ava asked incredulously and looked at Caitlyn's alarm clock. It was just nine, ‘Oh... I thought it was later. But training? Come on, Caitlyn.’

”Believe me, it'll be fun and the winner gets the loser and Summer.“

”Wait! Don't I get a say in this?” Summer asked.

“No!“ Ava and Caitlyn said in unison.

”Wow... okay,“ Summer said, acting as if she were deeply offended, but the corners of her mouth kept going up on their own, and neither of the others bought it.

”Is this going to be one of those classic slumber parties thingys, too?” Ava asked, but Caitlyn waved it off and clicked her tongue.

“I just don't feel like doing something normal right now.“

”I KNEW IT!“

”Are you in or out?” Caitlyn asked, and the friends could see that Caitlyn was itching to get started. Her competitive desire and urge to prove herself had taken over and were making her blood boil.

“All right,“ Ava said slowly and deliberately, ‘What are the rules?’

”You give me an hour to prepare and then try to save Summer. I'll try to stop you.”

“Just here?“ Ava asked, looking around Caitlyn's room. At first Caitlyn was a little disappointed; her room alone would be a bit too small for a training fight, but then she grinned again.

”The whole house and garden. Whoever surrenders, is knocked out, or is immobilized, has lost.”

“Immobilized?“ Ava asked, frowning.

”Well, my brother built a pretty good security system. But nothing absurd,” Caitlyn said, and Summer shot her a look that said, ‘are you kidding me?’

Ava hesitated at that statement, having heard something about the system but not knowing exactly what Luke had built.

“Are you scared?“

Ava was thrown off her thoughts by this question and narrowed her eyes into slits.

”Greed and I won't hold back... you'll go down so hard,” she muttered, glancing at the clock again and then at Summer, ”I'll see you in an hour.”

She left the room while Summer stared after her, her mouth open. They heard Ava leave the house and Summer turned to Caitlyn, who at that moment dropped the towel without blushing, showing what she had hidden behind her back. It was her Halloween costume from last year. A green and black catsuit modeled after the supervillain Shego. While Caitlyn put it on, Summer wasn't sure whether to laugh or be quiet, but decided on the former.

“Hahahaha! You're not serious, Caitlyn? Where did you get that outfit? Oh! I see! Do you do this often with Jade? Is she your little Kim Possible?” Summer asked as Caitlyn zipped up the costume and took the matching boots out of the closet. She put her feet in them and zipped them up as well.

“Hahaha because she has red hair, you know...?“ Summer asked, but again there was no reaction. Caitlyn straightened her suit and then finally looked down at her. Summer had to swallow, Caitlyn's gaze sent a shiver down her spine.

”You've got a pretty big mouth, Summer,” Caitlyn muttered, standing in front of her. She raised her hand and let her magic travel into it. Somehow she knew what she had to do and made a fist with it. A moment later, it began to glow with green fire. Caitlyn put on a dark grin, ominously illuminated by the fire.

"Let's see if it's still as big in 50 minutes.”

She pulled Summer onto her bound legs and led her to the center of the room, looking up. Summer followed her gaze and saw hooks in the ceiling, perfect for hanging ropes.

“Uh Cait?” Summer asked, but Caitlyn ignored her again and reached out to the ropes on the floor.

“Ropes!” she commanded, and bundles immediately flew into her hand. With one hand, she opened one of them and tied it around Summer's waist and through her crotch. She threw the other end up and, as if by magic, it flew through the hooks in the ceiling and landed back in her hand. She pulled on it until it was taut. More ropes followed, which Caitlyn tied to her friend's chest harness so that she could no longer fall.

“Will I have to stand here all the time until Ava comes?” Summer asked doubtfully.

“If you can,” Caitlyn said curtly, unbuttoning Summer's nightgown, which made her blush. Her breasts literally bounced towards Caitlyn.

“Look as much as you want, but touching costs!"

Caitlyn snorted when she couldn't keep her role any longer and turned away. She shook her head while still laughing as she went to her closet to look for the last two items of her choice.

“Come on, Summer. Do you know how hard it is to stay in character when you have a joker like that across from you?“

”Character? Cait. Your Shego isn't really good when you don't say anything or are as mean as she is.

“I see. So I should be meaner? And cheekier?” Caitlyn asked, pulling the toys out of a drawer.

“Yeah?“

”Excellent idea,” Caitlyn said, turning to her friend. In her hand she held a Magicwand vibrator and two nipple clamps connected by a chain.

“Uhhhh,” Summer said, and suddenly felt the urge to run away, which of course was impossible because of the ropes she was hanging from. Caitlyn tied a rope to the chain and caught Summer's nipple with the clamps. The pink-haired girl drew in a hissing breath as Caitlyn also guided the other end of the rope over the ceiling and pulled on it. The hissing sound coming from Summer's mouth grew louder when Caitlyn forced her to stand on tiptoe if she didn't want the clamps to pull roughly on her nipples.

“Nasty enough?” Caitlyn asked, which only prompted a nervous smile from Summer.

“You still have room for improvement,“ she replied and immediately regretted her statement when Caitlyn pulled out the vibrator. She tied it to Summer's leg and pushed its head into Summer's crotch.

”I'd think twice about kneeling down. Might pull a little,” Caitlyn laughed, and Summer nodded.

“Yup, that's what I thought too,“ she said nervously, her legs starting to shake as Caitlyn turned the vibrator up to the maximum setting.

”That's our Summer, so smart!” Caitlyn said, as if talking to a puppy, patting Summer on the head. She glanced at the clock and giggled.

“Ava's supposed to come in 40 minutes to try to save you. You should be able to make it, right?“ Caitlyn asked, and Summer's eyes widened in horror.

”Oh fuck!” she muttered, as the vibrator brought her ever closer to orgasm with powerful pulses.

 

An icy wind swept through the forest on the outskirts of town, but Ava didn't feel it. She stood across the street from Caitlyn's house, arms folded, looking up at her friend's bedroom window. Greed had transformed into her dark purple superhero outfit, and her cape fluttered behind her in the wind.

“It should be soon, right, Greed? And, um... maybe we should still hold back a bit. I don't want to have to call an ambulance for her,” Ava said, and a nasty grin formed on her lips as Greed hugged her. He agreed with her, but still, they should teach the cheeky policewoman a lesson.

“Just a little,” Ava murmured and pulled out her cell phone when she received a message, and she winced with laughter. Caitlyn had sent her a picture of her in her room, standing in her Shego costume in her room. Behind her stood Summer, tied up with ropes and forced to stand while a vibrator worked her crotch. The large spot on the spot and her eyes rolled back in her head showed that she was having a lot of fun. Under the picture, Caitlyn wrote:

I have your friend. Surrender to me or she will suffer!

Shego

 

Ava grinned and put her cell phone away again.

“Let's go, Greed!” she cheered, pulling the mask up over her face and the hood over her head. Ava sprinted across the street toward the gate, but then changed her mind, turned sharply, and ran along the great wall. She left the dimly lit street and ran between the property line and the trees until she thought she had found a good place to get over. Ava crouched down and pushed off the ground with all her might. With Greed's power, she leaped over the wall and made wide eyes when she was much too high and now fell back to the ground.

“Not so wild, Greed,” she admonished him when she hit the ground hard, but Greed protected her from harm. She took a step forward when suddenly the sprinkler system turned on and splashed Ava with ice-cold water, which, however, had no effect on her.

“Is that all?” she asked, while Greed absorbed the water and protected Ava from the cold, ”Cute, Luke, but it won't stop me.”

She ran across the wet grass towards the house, but suddenly came to a sliding halt when Caitlyn appeared in front of her. She was leaning against the house, her mouth hidden behind her hand, while her elbow rested on her other arm. Next to her was the glass door to the living room and on the other side were innocent-looking bushes.

“These are the traps? Did the great Shego overestimate her brother?“ Ava asked, spreading her arms to show that she was not impressed.

”Would be very disappointed otherwise! But that's not all!” Caitlyn said, pointing up. Ava looked up and saw a net thrower aimed at her. It shot at Ava, and she grinned as she prepared to sprint towards Caitlyn, dodging the net. Instead, she was knocked sideways as Greed took control of her body and threw her towards the sprinkler to catch the water. Ava shrieked in surprise and Caitlyn, who had struck a fighting pose a second earlier, stared in disbelief at her friend, who was now struggling above the jet of water and trying to get up. Instead, however, all that could be heard was Ava swearing and Greed slurping while the water shot with force against Ava's back and splashed in all directions

“Ava?“

”Greed, you idiot! I just fed you and now you want more? We have a job to do here and we have to save Summer!"

Greed, however, seemed unimpressed and opened up around Ava's completely naked body and carelessly threw her in Caitlyn's direction while he continued to snack on the water. Ava slid across the wet grass and came to a stop right in front of Caitlyn's feet. She trembled all over as Greed no longer protected her from the cold and the water, and she looked up at Caitlyn fearfully. Caitlyn grinned broadly and bent down to her.

“Game Over, cupcake,” she murmured and flicked her hand across Ava's forehead.

“Ow,” Ava said as Caitlyn stood up again and stepped back to the wall. Ava was about to ask what would happen now when a net shot out of the bushes next to Caitlyn and towards her. It wrapped around her in seconds and pulled Ava between the bushes. Ava didn't even have time to scream or curse before she was hanging in the basement, kicking against the tight mesh.

“Greed! You selfish bitch! I thought we were done with this shit!” Ava shouted up, her teeth chattering, while the hidden steel door closed above her. Less than five minutes later, Caitlyn entered the basement with a neatly folded cheerleader uniform and a towel in her hands, grinning from ear to ear.

“We'll have to do this again!”, Ava exclaimed immediately, covering her breasts and crotch.

“Gladly, but not today. I just want to pick up my prize,“ Caitlyn replied, opening the net so Ava could get out. Greed immediately changed hands, wrapping itself around Ava's body and warming her up.

”Traitor,” she murmured as he transformed back into a pair of red satin pajamas.

“I really didn't expect this result,“ Caitlyn laughed and handed Ava the towel.

”Do you think I did?” Ava asked annoyed and Greed gave her a quick hug, ”YES! I'm really mad at you, you idiot! Because of you, Summer is now trapped in Caitlyn's clutches forever!”

The policewoman chuckled and led Ava up the stairs.

“I think Summer is quite happy with it right now, but we really should go to bed now. I hope you're ready?”

“Let's get it over with,” Ava sighed, following Caitlyn up to her room. Summer was still standing on her shaky legs, hovering between heaven and hell. The vibrator demanded one orgasm after another from her, but her harness prevented her from relaxing and the nipple clamps pulled on her nipples every time she let herself go. She was so absorbed in her struggle that she didn't even notice Ava and Caitlyn entering the room. It was only when she was released from both girls and laid on the floor that Summer weakly opened her eyes and gave them a brief, exhausted nod. She didn't even have the strength to say anything.

“Wow, you really have the power to shut Summer up,” Ava murmured, shaking her head, while Caitlyn took the now-free ropes and ran them across Ava's shoulders.

“I had a feeling about that,” Caitlyn replied and began to tie the same waist harness around Ava. Within minutes, Ava was tied up just like Summer, and both were lying on Caitlyn's bed next to each other. Both now had heavy eyes as the stress of the days finally left their bodies. Caitlyn stood over them and took off Shego's catsuit. As much as she liked it, it was quite uncomfortable to sleep in, so she just took a large shirt and underwear out of the closet instead.

“So, let's store you guys,” she whispered, putting her friends' legs into their sleeping bags.

“Thanks,” Ava murmured, snuggling down into its depths, while Summer looked up at Caitlyn.

“What about you?“ she asked quietly and nodded in her direction.

”What do you mean?“ Caitlyn asked and picked up her sleeping bag from the ground to put it in the middle of the two of them.

”Don't you want to tie yourself up too?” Summer murmured and Ava looked at Summer, frowning, before she nodded too.

“You like it even more than I do.“

”Well,“ Caitlyn started, but doubted that she could tie herself up just as well, ‘it might be a bit difficult...’

”Just use your magic!“ Summer said, her eyes lighting up, and Ava nodded again.

”It's only fair!”

Caitlyn took a deep breath and looked at the rest of the ropes scattered around the room.

“All right,” she said, “But it's at your own risk.”

“Why is that?” Ava and Summer asked in unison, while Caitlyn climbed into her own sleeping bag and raised her hand towards her room.

“Bind!” she commanded the ropes, which quivered briefly and then began to creep toward her like snakes. Caitlyn felt an enormous amount of magic being drawn from her body, leaving her exhausted. But it was worth it when she saw Ava and Summer's wide eyes, watching the spectacle in amazement, while Caitlyn hoped that the spell would work as intended. The ropes crawled up the bed, slid over Ava and slid into Caitlyn's sleeping bag, where they began to tie her up like her two friends.

“Wow, Caitlyn, this is so cool,” Summer said enviously, while Caitlyn's freedom was disappearing more and more, and at the same time more and more ropes were crawling into her sleeping bag. Caitlyn nodded her thanks, but Ava looked worried at the ropes that were now also crawling out of Caitlyn's closet to join the others.

“Um, guys? I'm no expert, but aren't there a few too many?“ Ava asked, and Caitlyn and Summer looked into the room and saw it too.

”Oh fuck... not again. I'm really sorry, guys,” Caitlyn muttered, embarrassed, as the extra ropes now split and spread evenly into the three sleeping bags.

“CAITLYN!“ Ava exclaimed indignantly as the ropes tied tightly around her body and suddenly pulled her deeper into the sleeping bag. The same thing happened to the other two, and ropes were pushed into their mouths to gag them.

”I'm sorry, guys,” was the last thing Caitlyn could say before she too was gagged. Summer opened her mouth joyfully and willingly accepted the ropes. They had now slid so far into the sleeping bags that only their long hair was sticking out. Ava was at least happy that no more ropes were tied around her when she suddenly felt her sleeping bag tighten and she rolled her eyes.

Me and my big mouth. she thought, while the sleeping bags continued to shrink until they were tightly wrapped around her body. From the outside, it now only looked as if three young women were lying in much too small sleeping bags, but they were fast asleep. You couldn't see that all three of them were thickly wrapped in ropes from the neck down and that the sleeping bags, which were much too small, could never have been left without help.

 

Luke yawned loudly as he got out of his car and looked up at his home in displeasure. Caitlyn was apparently already awake and was in the kitchen or living room. At least he could see a glow of light there. He went to the door and opened it. Caitlyn was standing at the dining room table, setting the table with all kinds of food. Apparently she had company.

“Hey Cait, I'm back...“ he said and fell silent when Caitlyn turned around and he realized that it wasn't his sister but his mother. She smiled warmly at him while Luke blinked in confusion as his brain shut down.

”Hey sweetie,” she said gently and Luke took a step back.

“Wait, wow, wow, wow, wow,“ he stuttered, shaking his head, ‘MOMMM?!’

”Yes, I thought you might be a little shocked. How are you, Luke?“

”Wait,” Luke repeated as his legs went weak and he had to sit down on the stairs next to the door. Terra stayed where she was and gave her son all the time he needed, and he needed a long time before he looked up again.

“Where were you?” he asked, and his mother smiled painfully.

“That's a long story... and maybe your father should hear it, too,” she said, “I'll explain everything as best I can. I've even prepared breakfast. Would you like to get your sister and her friends, then we can explain everything. They were still asleep when I came back, but now the food is ready."

Luke took a deep breath, but nodded and got up slowly. Shaking his head, he went up the stairs to Caitlyn's room and disappeared from Terra's field of vision.

“Hooo ... he took it better than I thought,“ she murmured, turning back to the table. She was about to rush to the kitchen for more egg when she heard Luke's voice from above.

”COME ON, CAITLYN! NOT AGAIN!”

Wednesday, December 4, 2024

26: Wynters and Partner

Jade was startled out of a fitful sleep by her cell phone ringing. It was still dark outside and the occasional car lights flashed as they passed. After blinking a few times, she realized that she and Phoebe were driving Jade's car towards her next clue and she must have fallen asleep during the drive. She nodded to her red-haired partner and took her cell phone. At first, it didn't want to unlock, and Jade clicked her tongue when she realized she was wearing her gloves. She took them off and tucked them under her spandex-covered arm. While Phoebe wore her classic detective outfit, consisting of her fedora hat, a white blouse and pinstriped trousers, Jade preferred a catsuit made of spandex and tight-fitting pants that didn't restrict her movements. However, both were wearing thick jackets to protect themselves from the frosty temperatures.

Jade accepted the call and smiled in joyful anticipation of being able to talk to her friend.

“Hey Cait. What's up? Everything okay?”

There was a deep sigh from the other side of the phone.

“Are you stuck again?” Jade asked, amused.

"No, I'm not stuck anymore, um, funny story, but another time. My friends and I... we were attacked tonight.“

Immediately, Jade became serious and sat up straight.

”Attacked? By whom?“

”I'm not quite sure yet, but one of them considers you her Mistress and they. .. they control magic. The one who seemed to know you had long white hair. Do you know anyone like that?”

“No, I'm sorry. But to call me her Mistress . . .“ Jade murmured, looking up at the starry sky.

”Can you think of anyone?“

”Just one. Vale. She was one of Judy's victims. I went to check on her and found her tied up. We had some fun, but it wasn't like we were in a BDSM relationship or anything.”

“Vale,“ Caitlyn murmured, lost in thought.

”She lives on the same street as Summer, at number 84... or 48? I'm sorry, when I see the house, I could tell, but Vale is not the type to attack people. She also gave me the information about the bunker.”

“Really? If it really was her, Ava and Summer will tell you something else. They're lying on my sofa right now, trying to process everything,“ Caitlyn murmured, ‘I'll take a look at it when we've recovered. She said we shouldn't meet anymore.’

”Well, it should take a while before we get back to LC anyway. But please keep me posted and give them both my regards. The magic must have been quite a shock for them.“

”For Ava, definitely. Summer said she's known for months.“

”Seriously? Even with Celine and Rilliana... Trisha?” Jade asked in surprise and stole a glance at Phoebe, who was concentrating on the road.

“Well, not all the details, but Celine didn't exactly go out of her way to keep magic a secret,” Caitlyn laughed, but quickly fell silent, ‘Hey, I'd go to bed now. I just wanted to tell you that quickly... take care. I love you,’ Caitlyn said.

“I love you too,“ Jade whispered into her cell phone and hung up.

”Problems at home?“ Phoebe asked as she started flashing and pulled off the highway.

”Nothing Caitlyn can't handle,“ Jade muttered, but there was still a hint of concern in her voice.

”We could go back.”

“Well, this is our best lead so far and I don't think we can help,“ Jade said and closed her eyes, ‘We have to find Caitlyn's mom.’

”I realize that, Jade. But we can't rush it. If you're not one hundred percent focused on the task at hand, then...”

“Don't worry, this won't be a repeat of last time,“ Jade murmured, still with her eyes closed, but she gave Phoebe a cheeky grin. Phoebe rolled her eyes and shook her head.


”Are you sure this is it?” Jade asked impatiently, while she put her car keys. in her pocket and followed Phoebe with a flashlight through the tall grass.

“No. That's why we're checking it out,“ Phoebe replied and knelt down.

”Why are we stopping? Did you find the bunker?“

”Jade, shut up, I have to concentrate,“ Phoebe said gently but firmly, while she bent even lower and looked at the grass.

”What are you doing?”

“Bingo,“ Phoebe murmured, pointing at the grass. ‘Do you see the grass? Someone walks over it often and it's bent in some places.’

”What?“ Jade asked incredulously and bent down as low as Phoebe, but all she saw was normal grass.

”Have you been smoking?"

Phoebe rolled her eyes.

“No, but there's also a steel door back there."

Immediately Jade was wide awake and rushed past Phoebe when she saw the door too. And indeed, they saw an overgrown steel door in the tall grass in front of them. A padlock refused them access.

“Now I feel offended by Maike,“ Jade laughed and whipped out her lock picking set. She bent over the steel door and started poking around in the lock. There was a click and at that same moment a red spark jumped from the lock over Jade's tools into her fingers.

”Um... what was that?” Phoebe asked.

Jade was frozen while she examined the lock and then her fingers.

“I don't know. I don't think anything,” Jade finally lied, hoping it was really nothing. She put the lock aside and opened the door. A surge of warm and humid air hit the two redheads and Phoebe's glasses instantly fogged up.

“I'll go first,“ Jade said while Phoebe cleaned her glasses. She climbed down a ladder that was firmly anchored in the walls. Jade looked down and could see the ground below.

”I'm coming, Terra,” Jade whispered, concentrating again on not falling down. The rungs were thin and Jade feared that she might slip if she wasn't careful. She didn't want to break her neck so close to her supposed goal.

Breaking one's neck wouldn't be good at all. It flashed through Jade's mind when she arrived at the bottom, and she shook herself.

“Focus, Jade!” She admonished herself and looked around. A long, wide and sparsely lit corridor lay before her, and at its end a thick steel door blocked her progress. A single red line had been drawn on the floor in front of her, standing out particularly against the gray concrete. Jade approached it and bent down.

“Mmmh, are there traps here?“ Jade murmured and examined the corridor. There was nothing to suggest that spears would suddenly shoot out of the walls or that a drop gate could trap them. Not even a trip wire had been set up.

”What have you found?” Phoebe asked, standing behind Jade and examining the corridor as well.

“Well, we have to go on. I don't want anyone to close the hatch behind us,“ Jade replied and wanted to step over the line, but Phoebe held her back.

”Jade, wait. You're rushing it. What if there are lasers or something else here?“

”Are you serious? Look around. These are smooth concrete walls, nothing is here and our goal is right there!”

“May I remind you that the first time we walked together, we almost fell into a pit of glue?” Phoebe said, but Jade didn't want to listen and pushed Phoebe's hand aside.

“Then wait here and cover my back. Behind this door could be my... Caitlyn's mom, and I won't hesitate!“ Jade hissed, stepping over the red line. She stood there for a second and raised her hands. She turned back to Phoebe.

”See? No problem!"

Phoebe rolled her eyes and followed her.

“I'm just saying.“

”I have to save her, Phoebe.“

”But you can't if you're stuck in glue or hanging from the wall in chains ... or worse.“

”I ...”, Jade trailed off as they heard a whirring sound and both redheads jumped. A screen descended in front of the steel door, obscuring the view of it.

“Jade...” Phoebe murmured and took a step back while Jade stared at the screen. It turned on and Jade's mouth went as thin as a line when she saw her old partner, dressed in an elegant black dress, sitting on a chair. She held a wine glass in her hand and swirled it slightly.

“Hello Maike,“ Jade murmured, clenching her hands into fists.

”Hello Jade,” Maike said after taking a sip and looking up at Jade, ‘In case you haven't noticed yet, this is a recording. I can't look better than you every day.’

Jade clicked her tongue disapprovingly.

“Be that as it may. I regret that I won't be able to see the following. But I'll have something to remember you by for a very long time. Enjoy eternity, Jade,” Maike said with a diabolical smile and the screen suddenly lit up, blinding Jade and Phoebe. When both women could see again, the screen had disappeared and the steel door was open. Still squinting, Jade could see a woman with raven-black hair hanging from chains in the middle of the room. A steel mask was pulled down over her face, and her body was encased in a skin-tight gray suit with several D-rings attached. The chains were hooked into several carabiners in the suit, holding her upright like a living marionette.

“Terra?” Jade murmured and took a step forward. With every second and every step she was more and more certain. Terra was hanging there and only she could save her.

“JADE!” Phoebe called in horror, and only now did Jade notice that one of the bound woman's hands was pointing in her direction. A red beam shot out of her towards Jade, and she jumped aside to avoid the magic. But it followed her and hit her in her right hand as if she were holding a magnet in it. Jade gasped. She braced herself for a moment of pain, but it didn't come; instead, she felt a numbness in her hand that spread further and further. Jade took off her glove and looked in disbelief at her hand as it turned gray. In seconds, her fingers were engulfed by it and she could no longer move them. Panicked, she turned to Phoebe.

“Phoebe?“ she called and tears ran down her cheeks as a moment later her arm petrified and stretched out in the direction of her partner, asking for help.

”What the...” Phoebe murmured and hurried to Jade, who was losing more and more control over her body. She wanted to run to Phoebe, but Jade remained rooted to the spot. Her legs no longer moved and the stone grew over her neck and over her eyes. Three seconds later, her entire face, including her hair, was petrified and a lonely tear rolled down her face, while Phoebe stood completely stunned in front of her.

“Jade...?”, she whispered, touching the burglar's cheek, but it was cold and unnaturally smooth, like a stone statue. Her eyes stared through Phoebe, reflecting the last fearful seconds of her life. The young detective swallowed hard and looked past Phoebe to the tied figure in the room. The door was still open and it seemed to be watching them. Phoebe's heart felt as if it was being held in an icy hand. What was preventing the figure from simply turning her to stone? Phoebe took a step back and watched the figure closely, but it didn't move.

“Maybe...“ Phoebe whispered and looked back at the ladder. She remembered the strange red spark that had jumped from the padlock to Jade.

”Maybe Jade was marked by it or something?”

Phoebe walked carefully towards the room, paying close attention to the woman's hand in front of her, but still she didn't move. The chains that held the woman in the air were connected to a machine that could be used to move her into different positions. Phoebe examined the mask the figure was wearing and could see that she couldn't see anything underneath it. She also suspected that she was connected to tubes underneath that fed her and perhaps more. This was suggested by the dozens of cables connected to the steel mask.

“I hope you can reverse this... whatever this was,” Phoebe murmured and carefully tried to remove the mask from the woman's face, but before she could do that, she heard noises behind her. Someone was standing at the hatch and apparently wanted to go down. Phoebe looked around in panic and saw a locker behind a table. She ran past a chemical station synthesizing a silvery liquid and took a look at the table. A digital map was displayed on it, showing Leon City, the island and even the east coast. In some places, various dots lit up, several of them right where she was standing now. Phoebe didn't know what she was looking at, but that didn't matter. She opened the locker, jumped in and closed the door.

“...you did this?” a woman asked and Phoebe recognized Judy's voice. She would recognize that fake friendliness anywhere.

"Not me. She did. I just made sure she had a target. I wonder how long that stupid brat's been standing there. Coincidences.”

“You're telling me that your doll over there petrified your burglar? Can you ask her to make me a Phoebe statue?"

Phoebe heard a groan from the stranger and then a giggle from Judy, which sent a cold shiver down her spine.

“If we catch her, maybe I can do something,“ the unfamiliar voice said, and a woman with long brown hair entered the room. Phoebe could see her through the slits in the locker. The woman, named Maike, went to the tied figure and stroked her hair.

”You did good, Terra.“

”Can she hear you?”

“No, but she's the only one who has never disappointed me. She has already given me so much,“ Maike whispered and went to the chemistry station. She took a glass vial and drew some of the silver liquid.

”Is that what we came here for?"

Phoebe heard another groan from Maike.

“Judy dear. It's thanks to this liquid that we haven't been discovered yet. Besides, we have Jade now. It's a good thing I have this.“

Phoebe could see that Maike took a black glove and a porcelain mask out of a drawer.

”What's with the mask and the glove?”

“In case you don't shut up,” Maike replied, and Judy's smile disappeared, but she didn't argue. Maike looked at her for a moment, but then she exhaled heavily and said, ”If you must know, these are just a few precautions. I don't think that this birdbrain found her way here on her own, and besides, I want to take her with me.”

“Take her with you?” Judy asked, stepping aside to let Maike through and see. Maike took a last look around the room and then nodded as she walked through the door. Judy followed her and closed the steel door behind her. A bolt slammed heavily into the lock, and Phoebe was trapped. The light went out in the room and only the digital map illuminated it a little. Phoebe waited in the locker until she was sure that the two women would not be coming back and then stepped out. She went to the map and saw that the points that had marked her position a moment ago were now moving.

“What does the map show? The mask and the glove? And the other points...”, Phoebe wondered aloud, but she turned her gaze away and looked at the figure in chains. There were more important things to do, ”Let's get to you.”

Phoebe approached the woman and finally released the fastener of the mask and pulled it off the woman's face. It hissed briefly and then Phoebe had it in her hand. In addition to the cables, the mask had a long tube from which it dripped. A screen was attached to it, which flashed strange symbols. Phoebe quickly put the mask aside and looked at the woman.

“Oh my...” Phoebe let out, as she saw the beauty of the woman. Despite her unfortunate situation, to which she had been exposed for who knows how long, her face had lost none of its beauty. Her skin was smooth and flawless. Her red lips seemed to positively glow and her eyes, which now began to flutter, had a blue color that was mesmerizing.

“Hey, can you hear me? I'm here to get you out of here!” Phoebe said, stroking the woman's cheeks. Suddenly, the woman began to tremble, and a cough shook her body. The chains began to clink as she tried to speak, but the cough made it unintelligible.

“Easy! I'll get you out from under there,“ Phoebe said soothingly, but she saw no chain winch or control panel on the machine.

”Ahem.“

The woman coughed harder again, closed her eyes tightly, and swallowed before taking a deep breath and then looking at Phoebe, blinking.

”Jade?”

“No, Phoebe Wynters. Private investigator. Jade hired me to help her find you. Terra, right? Caitlyn Taylor's mother?“

The woman nodded.

”Where... where are my children? Is my husband all right?“ Rilliana...”, the woman trailed off, looking at Phoebe for a moment before looking up at the chains, then to the chemical station.

“How long have I been here?” Terra finally asked. ‘The last thing I remember was... ...eating with Maike and Cait. She was celebrating her graduation with Jade and Rilliana and then...’

Her gaze wandered and she stared into space.

“Jade didn't tell me much about her past, but as far as I can tell, Maike tricked you,” Phoebe said, trying to loosen one of the chains.

“Don't bother,” Terra murmured and closed her eyes. A second later, the chains shattered and Terra fell to the ground. She landed on her legs, but she collapsed under her own weight and Phoebe just managed to prevent Terra from slamming down on the concrete.

“I can hardly feel my body,“ Terra murmured as Phoebe carefully put her down on the floor.

”How did you do that?” Phoebe asked, but she shook her head. Breaking chains after seeing someone petrified didn't seem particularly impressive.

“I'm a sorceress, “ Terra said simply, looking around the dim room, but stopping when Phoebe didn't ask any questions, ‘Did you already know about this, or did Rilliana decide to share magic with humanity after all, while I was gone?’

”No, I... You turned Jade into a statue just before I freed you. Didn't you realise?“, Phoebe asked dejectedly.

”No, I didn't. Where is she?“, Terra asked with her eyebrows drawn together and looked around the room again, afraid she had missed Jade.

”Maike said she wanted to take her with her."

Terra took a deep breath and clenched her hands into fists.

“Then we have to save her and teach Maike a little lesson,“ Terra said with growing anger and wanted to sit up, but her arms gave way under her weight.

”Phoebe darling, would you be so kind as to carry me to Maike so that I can twist her neck?”

“That might be a bit difficult with the steel door.“

”Yes, of course,“ Terra murmured, pointing her hand at the door, which was suddenly squeezed into a ball and fell to the ground with a loud bang.

”Now help me up. After that, I should be fine,” Terra said, and Phoebe heaved her up off the ground, only to be held back by Terra again.

“I just found an explanation for why it feels like I have to go to the bathroom. Could you please pull the butt plug and the other stuff out of my ass?” Terra said, and despite the shame, there was an angry undertone to her voice. Phoebe did as she was told. She didn't want to end up like the door.


Maike and Judy got out of her and Jade's car.

“Tell your henchmen to bring Jade to my room. And don't let me see more than a scratch.”

“Can't you just use your magical floating glove like you did before?” Judy asked, staring greedily at the glove that was stretched over Maike's hand.

“And let all your henchmen see that there are magical artifacts? Forget it. Now do your job so I can do mine,” Maike said and went with her artifacts into the old, rundown factory building.

“No wonder Jade betrayed you,” Judy murmured, smiling, and shaking her head. She waved a couple of her men over and pointed at Jade, telling them where to take the statue. 

Meanwhile, Maike had settled down on her armchair at her desk. She interlocked her fingers and put her chin on them. She waited for the henchmen to bring the statue in and leave her room until she turned to the statue and looked closely at Jade's petrified face.

“How did you fool, find the bunker? Did you have help?” Maike asked, but of course she didn't get an answer. She stood up and pulled a knife out of a drawer. She pointed at Jade with her glove, and the statue rose from the floor and floated to her. With her other hand, she cut the clothes off Jade's body. The spandex and leather fell to the floor, revealing Jade's gray body. Even though she had never been attracted to men or other women, she couldn't help but admire Jade's body. Slim and perfectly trained to break into houses. Maike had seen that immediately when she first entered her class, even though Jade hadn't known it herself at the time.

“I'm a little jealous of you, Jade,” Maike murmured, carefully setting the statue down and running her fingers over the smooth stone, ”Your body will stay this perfect forever. It's a shame about your talent... Well.”

Maike patted Jade's face, sat back down in her chair, and turned to her computer. Judy's operation was running at full speed, after all, and Maike had more than one job to keep everything running smoothly. Controlling the building, manufacturing the chemicals Judy used, and organizing her goods in the more distant warehouse. Each cage had a number and was neatly lined up. Without her system, Judy's henchmen, who carried out the feeding times, training phases and hypnosis sessions in Maike's place, would have been busted long ago. Maike switched through the cameras and stopped at a cage where a blonde was tapping on the steel bars. She selected the cage and skipped the next feeding, replacing it with hypnosis.

“I've been gone far too long, it seems, 158, that should put you back on the right track. Rebellious beast,” Maike commented and inspected a few more cages before she undressed and turned off her light. She climbed into bed and looked at the naked statue of Jade, illuminated by the moon.

“Perfection,“ Maike murmured, stroking her lips as she took in every detail of Jade's body. She closed her eyes and a rare honest smile played around her lips.

”Perfection.”


“Soooo, what are you two beauties doing in the middle of nowhere at this hour?“ the driver of the car asked, taking a closer look at Terra's skin-tight bondage suit.

”We're coming from a costume party and my friend had to go to the bathroom. With her costume, it sometimes takes a little longer, and she needed help. Unfortunately, my car was stolen during that time. It was quite a shock for us,” Phoebe lied while Terra clenched and unclenched her fists. The man flinched at the sound of the cracking and quickly looked back at the road when his gaze met Terra's.

“I think this is it. Stop, please,“ Phoebe said after a while of uncomfortable silence. She had memorized the digital map and waited where the glowing dots stopped.

”All right,” Terra said, while her driver stopped and she opened the door, ”Wait for me here, this won't take long.”

Phoebe got out, too, and the driver drove off with screeching tires.

“Are you sure, Mrs. Taylor? You can barely stand!”

“It's all about concentration, dear,” Terra murmured, while she swayed slightly and sent additional magic into her legs to support her body.

"I could support you.”

“No, no. You stay here, safe and sound, and wait patiently while Terra takes care of everything. You'd only be in my way,” Terra said gently but firmly, throwing a smile at Phoebe, ”Maike and the rest of her gang have laid hands on my family for the last time. Just have the forgetting serum ready in case there are any survivors.”

Phoebe swallowed.

“Okay,” she said meekly, while Terra crossed the street. She raised her hand towards the closed gate and it morphed into a ball, which Terra then hurled at a door. The force of the impact was so strong that the door was torn from its hinges.

“MAIKEEEEE!” Terra screamed angrily, and her voice echoed throughout the courtyard as voices and shouts were raised in the old factory.

“MAIKEEEEEEEE!” Terra screamed again and briefly lost her balance. She leaned against a wall and entered the hall. Terra could see people loading boxes onto trucks and hastily getting in to make their escape.

“You don't believe that yourself!” Terra shouted, raising her arm. Suddenly, all the vehicles' engines died, and the stuttering of the desperate attempts to start them again echoed throughout the hall. A wave of weakness washed over Terra, but she ignored it and walked slowly but steadily towards the trucks.

“MAIKEEE!“ Terra called again and this time she got an answer.

”Hello Terra, long time no see. I somehow thought that Jade would never have found the bunker on her own,” Maike said behind her at the bottom of a staircase. Terra spun around and stared into the eyes of her former friend, ”Who helped you? Your daughter? That blonde friend of yours? Or was it a little detective?”

“Where is Jade?“ Terra interrupted with suppressed rage. She didn't notice that Maike was holding something behind her back.

”Upstairs in my office. You've done an amazing job. The stone is amazingly smooth,” Maike said with a smile.

“Then you won't mind switching places with her!” Terra shouted and fired a red bolt at Maike. However, Maike didn't evade the sign of magic but threw a Chinese porcelain mask in Terra's direction. The mask devoured Terra's magic and flew on towards Terra, drawn by her magic. Still weakened by her physical condition and by the surprise of having her magic neutralized, she didn't manage to dodge in time. The mask slapped her in the face with full force and knocked Terra over. Blue-sparkling ribbons shot out from under the mask and wrapped around her head in a split second. A gag was pushed into her mouth, silencing her instantly. Before Terra hit the ground, her entire head had been wrapped in the shiny blue ribbons. Instinctively, she tried to get hold of them and pull them down, but her fingers slid off them. She felt the ribbons start to wrap her hands and quickly tried to cast a cutting spell, even if it cost her some of her black hair, but nothing happened. Perplexed, she lay on the floor for a moment without defending herself, until panic seized her heart. Meanwhile, the ribbons hadn't paused and pinned Terra's arms in front of her breasts. They wrapped around her torso, leaving no part uncovered. Even more, They wrapped around Terra's arms above and below, pinning her so that she couldn't move them even a hair's breadth. The ribbons continued to wind down to her feet, robbing her more and more of her weakened legs until she lay completely mummified on the floor of the factory hall. However, Terra did not give up yet and pushed against the ribbons with all her might, but this did not have the hoped-for effect. Instead, the ribbons wrapped themselves from her feet back up and crossed over. As a result, the ribbons wove an even stronger cocoon and wrapped themselves ever tighter around Terra's body until she was as stiff as a board and could no longer move. Maike watched, not moving an inch away from Terra. A spiteful smile played on her lips and the tortured screams of her former friend were like music to her ears. She bent down to Terra's head and brushed aside a few of her hair.

“I hope you enjoyed your little trip, because it will cost you dearly. You'll never see daylight again, and I promise you one thing. Your little helper outside will get the Judy Special, and I'll have your family kidnapped, and the last thing they'll see is their own mother and wife turning them to stone,” Maike whispered in Terra's ear. The cocoon didn't move at first, and only when Maike waved at the henchmen to drag Terra to her office did Terra start to tremble. She couldn't do anything else. Maike didn't care and went upstairs. She took out her cell phone and called Judy.

“Judy? The threat has been eliminated. Continue loading your monkeys, I want to go back to Leon City to make a few visits. Assign a few people to search the area. I have a feeling we have another guest, and I suspect it might be your great love, Phoebe.“

”My pleasure, darling.”


“Where is she?“ Phoebe murmured, looking anxiously from her hiding place behind a bush. ‘Should I call the police?’

Phoebe received her answer to the question when she felt a gun at her back.

”Better not, dear, we don't want to wake sleeping dogs. You're coming with me. My boss has been eagerly awaiting you.”

Phoebe was roughly pushed out of the bush and stumbled out onto the street with her hands up. She could feel the pistol at her back the whole time and was led through the destroyed gate into the factory. There, standing before her, was Judy, the most infamous slave trader in Leon City.

“Hello Ms. Wynters, nice of you to accept my invitation,“ the black-haired beauty said and her dark eyes flashed with a red glow.

”Hello Judy... I see prison wasn't too bad for you,” Phoebe scoffed and received a kick to the back of her knee in return. She lost the strength in her legs and kneeled on the concrete while Judy looked down at her with amusement.

“It was actually like a little vacation for me after I restructured the pecking order,” Judy said, motioning for her subordinate Phoebe to help her up. He pulled her up roughly by the arm and pushed her in the direction of a staircase.

"Tie her to the chair. I'll be there in a minute,” Judy said and followed them upstairs. She knocked on a door while she was being directed. Phoebe was pushed into a room and could still see out of the corner of her eye how Judy was let in by Maike. The guard pushed Phoebe onto a treatment chair that was firmly installed in the floor and strapped her arms to the armrests. He tightened the belt more than necessary and Phoebe gritted her teeth as they cut deep into her skin.

“So you don't run away,” he commented with a grin, patting her cheek. Phoebe snapped at him with her teeth, but he pulled his hand away in time and laughed amusedly as he turned around and left the room. Phoebe didn't waste any time and tugged at her bonds, but her arms didn't move an inch and seemed to be glued to the armrests. She couldn't see anything she could use to cut herself free either and started to throw herself against the backrest. There was a loud crack and the back of the chair folded backwards. At the same time, the armrests also shifted downwards and Phoebe squeaked in shock as she suddenly found herself lying horizontally on the chair.

“Not at all unpleasant,” she commented sarcastically and continued to struggle until the door opened and Judy entered. Phoebe didn't like the look on her smile at all, and she pulled on her arm with all her might.

“Now, now, who's trying to escape?“ Judy said gently and went to a closet, from which she took a small wooden box and a red latex catsuit, which rigidly presented its holes in the chest and crotch area with spread arms and legs.

”You won't get away with this, Judy!"

Judy blinked in confusion and shook her head.

“Do you know how often I've heard that? If the day we met hadn't been so burned into my mind, I'd even think you said that back then,” Judy laughed, grabbing Phoebe's jaw and her fingernails digging into her cheeks, ”you didn't, did you?”

She shook Phoebe's head.

"I remember correct then, ” Judy said and threw Phoebe's head aside. She put the box on a small table next to the chair and put a knife, an ointment and a razor next to it.

“I briefly considered whether I should wait and ask Maike to simply turn you into stone. A tempting offer, frankly, but I think the Judy Special is a better punishment for you,” whispered Judy, deftly picking up the knife and placing it at Phoebe's throat. The detective swallowed hard and turned away from the knife.

“What? No smart remarks on the tip of your tongue? Or I know! Why don't you try spitting at me again!“

”I have no more to say to scum like you,” Phoebe spat between her teeth.

“Excellent,” Judy said happily and raked the knife under Phoebe's blouse and cut it open in one go. A few more cuts and the blouse fell to the floor in tatters. Her bra landed a few seconds later next to it, followed by her pants and Phoebe's underwear. She was now completely naked on the operating chair and goose bumps formed on her skin.

“Oh, are you cold? I'm really sorry about that, Ms. Wynters. But now that I see it, I usually anesthetize the women I give the Judy Special, but I think I ahhh, misplaced the syringe somewhere. Well, the glue might sting a bit, but it should be over in three or four hours.”

Phoebe turned pale.

“Pardon?” she asked barely audibly, and Judy's mouth contorted into a smirking grimace.

“The glue that bonds the latex to your skin. It's not a pleasant experience, but one that will remain in your memory forever. You'll be forced to remember it. Do you like the color of your new skin?” she asked, pointing to the stiff latex suit. Phoebe's eyes widened, and in horror she began to tug at her bonds again, stamping her feet on the operating chair. Judy rolled her eyes in annoyance and put the cold steel back on Phoebe's neck. Phoebe immediately held still and looked up at Judy with trembling lips.

“Hold still, dear, or I might slip,” Judy said simply, and Phoebe nodded cautiously, “Very good, dear.”

She twirled the knife artfully in her own hand and put it back in the wooden box. Judy took a pair of gloves out of the box and put them on before she opened the glue. She smeared the glue on her hands and began to rub it into Phoebe's body. She made sure not to leave out any part.

“You know, after I was released, I immediately had a suit made for you. I might not have remembered your measurements correctly, but that's more of a 'you' problem now,” Judy explained, taking off her gloves and throwing them into a trash can.

“So we're getting the suit on. The glue will help us put it on, but we don't have much time, so since you can move, I'd like you to help a little. All right?“ Judy asked, but Phoebe didn't answer.

”You can help, right?” Judy asked, pinching one of Phoebe's nipples hard and twisting it in her hand.

“YES, I'll help! I'll help!” Phoebe screamed and Judy let go of her nipple. She picked up the red suit from the floor and showed Phoebe the open back.

“Feet!” Judy ordered, and Phoebe stuck her legs into the opening at the back. The glue was still serving as a lubricant, as Judy had said, and Phoebe's feet slid almost effortlessly into the footlets of the suit. Judy pulled the suit further up over her hips and it settled with a smacking sound. Phoebe felt her crotch being released and her legs forced apart by the suit. She could fight it, but it took a lot of strength.

"I'm going to untie you now and I trust you to hold still. Otherwise, your first customers will be my henchmen, understood?”

Phoebe nodded weakly and Judy untied one of her hands. The place where the belt had cut into her skin was clearly visible, and Judy drew in a hissing breath.

"I'll probably have to give someone a raise. Don't you think?”

Phoebe didn't answer again, but this time Judy didn't seem to mind and pulled the suit further up, putting her hand into the sleeve. She slid along the tight latex tunnel, and the journey ended in a ball-shaped mitten. Her hand was forced into a fist, but Phoebe doubted that she could cause even a bruise with the stiffness of the suit and the latex padding around her hand. Judy went around Phoebe and pushed her other hand into the suit.

“So, now for the zipper,” Judy murmured and pushed the detective forward roughly to get to her back. She took the glue and poured it over her back before pulling up the zipper. When it reached the top, it released itself and Phoebe threw it into the trash with the gloves. The moment Judy pulled up the zipper, the suit around Phoebe became much tighter. Her breasts were pushed through the openings until they popped through, cutting the latex slightly into her skin.

“Beautiful. Almost there,“ Judy said, pushing Phoebe's hand onto the back of the chair and buckling the belt around her arm. She walked around the chair and smiled at Phoebe's desperate face.

”What is it, love?“

”What's going to happen to me?”

“Well, I'm going to tie up my little sex doll, that's you, for the night before we leave for Leon City in the morning. I'm also going to shave your head bald and then put this awesome mask on you!“ Judy announced, lifting a spherical inflatable latex mask out of the box.

”No…”

“Yes, dear. This is the Judy Special, after all,” Judy laughed, while Phoebe started fidgeting again and the chair groaned. Judy rolled her eyes and grabbed Phoebe's hand, pressing it onto the armrest. But before Judy could tie Phoebe to the chair with her belt, Phoebe managed to break free and, with the help of the stiffness of the suit, her arm was flung upwards. It hit the table and Judy's box was catapulted into the air. Both women watched the box as gravity took hold of it again and it fell exactly on Judy's head. Judy collapsed and the contents of the box were scattered all over the room. Judy's knife sank into the chair next to Phoebe's neck and she let out a hissing sound.

“Oh fuuuuck,” Phoebe shouted, looking down at Judy, who was bleeding from her head but still breathing.

I have to get out of here and save the others. Phoebe thought and looked at the belt that tied her to the chair. She pushed the belt through the metal opening with her “free” hand and slid off the chair. She bit into the belt and pulled it out of the metal needle. After that, she could easily free herself and walked carefully around Judy. The stiffness of her catsuit made walking a hundred times harder and she had to be careful not to tip over backwards while putting one foot in front of the other. She pushed down the latch with her fists and carefully opened the door. There was no one outside and Judy's henchmen seemed to have loaded everything.

“I hope Terra is with that Maike,” Phoebe murmured as she slowly felt her skin begin to warm up, ”I have to hurry!”

She walked along the dock and went to the door where she had just seen Maike. Phoebe opened the door as quietly as she could. The room was illuminated by the moonlight, and Phoebe swallowed when she saw Jade's statue again. In the bed, Maike was fast asleep, at least she hoped so, and next to the bed, there was a mummified woman with blue ribbons, wearing a Chinese porcelain mask. Phoebe sat down on the floor and crawled on all fours to the woman. She was breathing regularly and calmly, and Phoebe nudged her lightly.

“Mmmhppf?“ she asked in agony and Phoebe recognized it as Terra.

”Terra, it's me,” Phoebe whispered and tried to push Terra's mask, but without success. And with her useless fingers in the latex balls, she doubted she could even pull the tightly woven blue ribbons from her.

“I don't know how to get the mask off.“

”Mmmhmm,“ Terra murmured into the gag, but Phoebe didn't understand what she wanted to say.

”Maybe..."

Terra knocked her head on the floor, Phoebe understood and looked up at Maike.

She had only one try. Unless Maike was a very firm sleeper. She turned Terra onto her stomach and jammed Terra's head between her fists. It took an enormous amount of strength to fight against the pull of the suit, and she raised her head. Under the mask, Phoebe heard Terra groan as her back was bent backwards. She hesitated for a moment, looking at Maike, then she pushed Terra's head down with force. The mask hit the ground and a loud bang filled the room.

“W-w-what?” Maike exclaimed, as she woke up with a start and looked around the room in confusion while Phoebe lifted Terra up again.

“What the hell do you think you're doing?” Maike asked angrily when she saw Phoebe and leaped out of her bed, but it was too late. Phoebe slammed the mask down on the floor again and this time it shattered into a thousand pieces. The shards flew in all directions and at the same moment the bands vanished into thin air. Maike opened her eyes in shock when she saw Terra and sprinted out of the room without looking back. She knocked over Phoebe, who fell on her back and started to wriggle like a turtle in an attempt to get up again.

“Ow...,“ Terra murmured and slowly turned back onto her back. Her nose was bleeding and she looked over at Phoebe in puzzlement.

”What happened to you?” she asked with a raised eyebrow.

“That's Judy's special,“ Phoebe said and she winced as the glue now really started to burn and she felt the latex bonding with her skin.

”Please get me out of here before I'm stuck here forever!“

”Of course,” Terra said worriedly when she saw Phoebe's pained face and raised her hand. The latex around Phoebe liquefied and flowed down her skin. At the same time, the glue came loose and, except for a few red spots, nothing of the latex on Phoebe could be seen. Relieved that she no longer had to spend her days as a sex doll, she fell on her back and relaxed her muscles. She didn't even care that she was completely naked.

“I don't have much magic left,“ Terra murmured, looking through the open door as Judy's henchmen ran to the trucks and drove away one after the other.

”We're here for Jade,“ Phoebe said, and Terra nodded.

”I know... they'll turn up again,” Terra whispered, turning to the statue of Jade, ”can you help me to the bed? I think when I cast the spell, I won't be able to do another thing."

Phoebe did as she was told and lifted Terra onto the bed. She raised her hand towards Jade and blue threads flew from her to the statue and wrapped around her petrified form. The gray skin became paler until it finally disappeared and Jade was gently set down on the floor. Her eyes were closed, but she was breathing deeply and relaxed. Terra's hand fell onto the bed and her eyes began to tremble from exhaustion. Phoebe went over to Jade and gently lifted her off the floor. She put her next to Terra in bed and covered both women.

“I'll take care of the rest, you should rest,” she whispered, and Terra nodded slightly.


Caitlyn was sitting in an armchair in the living room in the evening, watching TV with her friends Ava and Summer. The two were sitting next to each other, wrapped up in blankets, taking bites from the huge pizza that had been delivered. Caitlyn, however, was not hungry, even though she hadn't eaten all day.

“Hey, I'm going to lie down for a bit,“ Caitlyn murmured, getting up from the armchair. Her friends gave her a concerned look.

”Don't you want to at least have a bite?” Ava asked sympathetically, pushing the pizza box in Caitlyn's direction.

“Well, I... I need a little peace and quiet. Come up when you want to sleep,“ Caitlyn said, giving Ava a shoulder squeeze as she passed. They watched her run up the stairs and then gave each other a sympathetic look.

”Should we go up too?” Summer asked, but Ava shook her head.

“Not yet. Let's give her a little time,“ Ava whispered. Summer nodded and leaned against Ava. Suddenly, someone knocked loudly on the front door and all three women jumped. Caitlyn immediately came running down the stairs.

”Hide!” she shouted, and Summer and Ava turned off the TV and looked out cautiously from behind the sofa. Caitlyn looked at the cameras and saw three women, shivering slightly in the cold and standing thickly veiled in front of her door. Caitlyn tilted her head to the side and carefully opened the door. Her face lit up when she saw who was standing in front of her, and tears of joy welled up in her eyes.

“Hey sweety...”

"M...Mom?!”

 

34: My realm

Caitlyn sat on the sofa in Celine's main house and rubbed her forehead. After the exciting and fun event, she had complained of a headac...
