Even with men, Lucius always sensed a frisson when the prisoner was stripped for the lash. That was

the moment at which their vulnerability was revealed, when their defences were removed and they

were left defenceless. With a woman, of course, there was something overtly sexual about it, and on

the rare occasions it was a young, attractive woman, the courtyard behind the fort would be

packed.

But this was something else. Catherine was beautiful and rich and a noble. She was fearsomely

intelligent and carried herself with grace and class. She was also a Christian. Nobody quite knew the

details, but it was said that she?d refused to marry the emperor because she considered herself

already married to her god. Frankly, Lucius wasn?t bothered by the details. All he knew was that two

days ago she?d been arrested and ordered to give up her faith. When she?d refused the emperor had

had her spend a night in the cells.

They?d all clustered around, staring through the grating in the door, unable to believe that this

woman had been delivered to them. He remembered the first time he?d laid eyes on her, around

three months earlier. He?d been providing security at a banquet at which she?d been one of the

guests. He?d heard rumours of her beauty, of course - she?d been the talk of the guardroom for the

week or so since she?d arrived from across the Mediterranean - but seeing her had been something

else.

He remembered the sight as she?d stepped down from her carriage, the image of simple elegance.

He?d actually felt a pain in his chest, had been unable to stop staring as she?d glided up the moonlit

path, tall, serene, her glossy hair the purest black. As she?d gone past him he?d caught her scent ?

sandalwood perhaps, although he was no expert ? and it had made such an impression that every

time he caught a whiff of something similar he was transported back to that moment. She?d turned

slightly towards him as she?d passed, and he?d gawped at her perfect: the quizzically arched

eyebrows, the dark, inquisitive eyes, the full, suggestive lips.

But of course the best thing about her was her figure. That night she?d worn a simple dress of pale

blue with golden rings holding front to back and allowing a glimpse of her smooth shoulders. The

waist was pinched in, giving evidence of her slenderness which highlighting the round swell of the

most magnificent breasts he?d ever contemplated. Every now and again the cloth of her dress was

stretched tight against them, given an enticing suggestion of their fullness.

Everybody had fantasised about her, had thought of taking her in their arms, of feeling those

astonishing breasts, and now here she was in the jail. They didn?t dare act on those desires, of

course, just stared at her as she knelt and prayed. The next day, she?d defied the emperor again and

he?d given her another night in the cells, warning her that if she still refused to recant her faith, he?d


have her flogged. Nobody had quite believed that would happen, but then the order had come: ten

strokes of the cane.

The yard had never been so full. At one end stood the thick column, 12 feet high, that was used as

whipping post. About 20 feet from that was a table behind which sat the centurion and his two

assistants, and lined up to from a rectangle on either side the soldiers were rammed in, lined up 12

deep. They were packed too behind the centurion, all desperate to see the most beautiful woman

any of them had ever seen flogged.

She stood before the centurion now, looking at him calmly as he detailed her punishment. Lucius

couldn?t believe her composure: faced with a beating he?d seen the hardest men break down. But

she was serene, even though everybody there was waiting for one thing ? to see her stripped. The

atmosphere was extraordinary: usually the soldiers would be taunting their victim, but here they

seemed almost deferent, cowed by her beauty and her status.

The order came at last. ?Strip her.?

The lictors stepped forward. Lucius felt a tightness in his chest. Catherine lifted her head, staring at a

point in the middle distance. Lucius followed her gaze and saw, standing on a balcony with his arms

folded, the emperor himself.

Her outer robes fell away, leaving her in a fine white shift. Lucius couldn?t take his eyes from her

chest ? the swell of the cloth hinting at the splendour that lay beneath. The lictors pulled at her shift.

She bent forward, unresisting, her arms loose as they lifted it over her head. And suddenly, there she

was, naked but for a narrow loin cloth. She didn?t attempt to cover herself, but stood, calmly, as

though her nudity was a matter of no consequence.

But for everybody else there, it was of great consequence. She had the purest olive skin and her

breasts, only a fraction paler, were everything Lucius had dreamed they would be. He guessed she

was in her early thirties, but there was no sign of sag. They sat there, pert and round and

magnificent, the dark nipples semi-erect in the sunlight.

The lictors, Marcus and Gellus, led her across the hard-packed earth to the post. There was silence in

the yard, everybody apparently awestruck by the vision before them. Lucius wished he could have

seen her from the front, watched as her breasts wobbled on her chest, but he had to content

himself with a back view, watching the sway of her hips, absorbing the purity of her skin, its golden


smoothness emphasised by the pale strip of cloth that gave just the slightest glimpse of the bottom

of her buttocks.

Usually victims would be slammed into the post to stun them while they were bound, but the

soldiers merely walked her to the post. Everything seemed to be happening more slowly than usual,

as if nobody could quite come to terms with the reality of what was happening. Lucius watched as

Marcus and Gellus fastened her wrists in thick cuffs. She didn?t resist, merely standing, looking at her

arms as they pulled the leather taut and fastened the buckles. He?d never seen anybody so calm as

they awaited a flogging, but she seemed to have neither fear nor anger, simply to be accepting what

they were doing to her.

They tightened the chain behind the post, pulling her arms up and out until she stood on the balls of

her feet, stretched out, embracing the stone. Lucius would have loved to have been that post, to feel

her nakedness pushed against him. From where he was standing he could just see a part of her left

breast squashed out to the side of her ribs. As Marcus and Gellus selected their canes from the

section on the table to the right of the post, another soldier, the tall and notoriously lecherous

Ligarius, swept up her black hair and pushed it over her left shoulder, baring her neck and the top

vertebrae. On another day he may have taken the opportunity to let his hands wander over her

breasts, but today everything was being done absolutely by the book.

There was a moment of stillness, as the two lictors took up their positions on either side of her.

Lucius felt he was living a dream. He drank in her perfect bare back, smooth and tanned in the early

morning sun. He admired the pert buttocks, their shape merely enhanced by the white loin cloth,

and the sumptuous lean legs. And what he lapped up most of all was the fact she was bound,

stretched taut across the pillar, a lictor at either side of her each bearing a long, pale cane.

Usually, they?d have flexed the canes and, whipped them through the air to terrify their victim, but

not here. Her power, her ability to restrict them to what was judicially permissible, was

extraordinary. Lucius wondered if they?d go easy on her- dangerous surely with the emperor

watching - but that idea was soon dispelled.

?Ten lashes,? said the centurion. ?Proceed.?

She straightened, readying herself. Marcus, the right-hander, touched her across the points of her

shoulder-blades and stepped back. Four paces, five. He was a powerful man and he put his body into

the lash, hitting her with the full might of his powerful right arm. There was a whoop as the cane

slashed through the air and a sickening dull whump as it smashed into her back. Her head flicked up


and a shudder seemed to pass through her, but the only sound she gave was a slight gasp as the air

was knocked from her lungs. Lucius could see the look of puzzlement on Marcus?s face, and he

understood why.

The canes were about five feet long, the thickness of a man?s forefinger and so whippy they gave the

impression of curving in the air. They were dreadful implements, designed to cause real pain. Even

soldiers rarely remained silent when beaten with them; for a woman to do so was all but

unprecedented. Lucius thought for a moment that Marcus might somehow have pulled the lash, or

mistimed it, but the deep purple welt that streaked from her right armpit on a shallow diagonal

down across her back showed how hard he had hit her.

?One,? called the centurion.

Gellus waited. Especially when the flogging was brief, they were encouraged to deliver the lashes

slowly, at about one every twenty seconds, to make the victim wait between blows, to anticipate the

lash. Usually between first and second lashes, the victim would be squirming, looking around to

plead for mercy, but Catherine remained perfectly still, staring straight ahead.

Gellus was smaller than Marcus, wiry with close cropped brown hair. Where Marcus?s power came

from his shoulder, his strength was in his wrist. His run-up was slower, shorter, but the cane

swooshed through the air just as quickly. He lashed low, four or five inches above the line of her loin

cloth. She gave a grunt, her head twitched and the muscles of her back flinched, but still, somehow,

she remained calm.

?Two.?

Marcus swept in. The whump reverberated around the yard. Her head flew back, her hair flying, and

she gave a stifled scream. She clenched her fists, but soon regained her composure.

?Three.?

Gellus followed up an inch lower, across the middle of her back. This time her whole body seemed to

flinch, and she was clearly breathing rapidly, but somehow she remained silent.


?Four.?

Lucius was amazed by her fortitude. Marcus looked puzzled. He tore in, striking hard on a diagonal

from her right shoulder down, giving a little leap as he smashed the cane onto her skin. It cut across

his first lash and the third and fourth, blood breaking out at the intersections. It was a savage blow,

delivered with such venom that Marcus?s right foot leapt up as he delivered it, and yet, after the

initial shudder, and a raw exhalation, she took it with equanimity.

Gellus followed it up with a similar blow down from her left shoulder. She shook clearly, her fingers

splayed and tense, but she didn?t scream. Lucius looked up at the emperor. He looked grim, staring

down stony-faced. He couldn?t blame the lictors, though; they were laying on the stripes as hard as

was possible. A glance at her back was enough to reveal that.

The seventh was a little below the middle of her back, the eighth a whippy strike deliberate flicking

across the skin, splitting the skin on the left side of the centre of her back, leaving a wheal perhaps

four inches long and an inch and a half wide. Her body bucked, her hair now arrayed across her

upper back, but again there was barely a grunt.

Marcus struck high, generating seemingly even more force for his final strike.

?Nine. ?

Her left leg kicked up, and her back clearly spasmed, but then she settled again, touching her

forehead to the stone and preparing herself for the final lash. It was another diagonal blow, and a

couple more spots of blood appeared where the purple welts crossed each other.

?Ten,? the centurion called, and Lucius could help but be impressed by her strength. Was this was

her religion gave her? The only prisoners he could remember not screaming after ten strokes had

been unconscious.

The centurion nodded to Marcus and Gellus, who lay their canes back on the table before returning

to their victim. She shivered slightly as they lowered her arms but then resumed her impassive

stillness as they unfastened her wrists. The silence was unnerving. She should have been howling,

the soldiers mocking, but instead she seemed almost indifferent while her tormentors were cowed


by her aura of calm. Lucius looked up at the emperor, but he was gone. He looked back at Catherine,

admiring again her body as she was led to the centurion, watching the roll of her breasts, and

wondering what the emperor would do next. She seemed stiff, moving awkwardly as she pulled her

shift back over her head, the movement clearly hurting her tortured back. Lucius didn?t much care;

he just drank in the final sight of her breasts, flattened slightly as she stretched up to let the linen fall

over her skin.

*

The great hall of the academy was packed, as was the courtyard and the streets beyond that.

Everybody wanted to see this and there was a hum of anticipation. Lucius was desperate to see it as

well, but he was also wary of the crowd, surprised the emperor had ordered this great debate. From

his position to the left side of the hall, he surveyed the audience, glad he was inside, where there

was some shade and some sense of order, rather than trying to hold back the mob outside. On the

stage, the 50 theologians and philosophers the emperor had gathered murmured among

themselves, reserved, quite men for the most part. They, too, Lucius knew, must be tense.

From the back of the stage, Catherine walked in, four soldiers behind her. Since her flogging she?d

spent a week in her cell, praying for the most part, barely seeming to sleep, yet she was still

radiantly beautiful, her dark hair swept back from her smooth forehead and falling in gentle curls

onto her shoulders. She was dressed in the white tunic and red cloak she?d been wearing before

they?d caned her and it showed the dirt of the prison, and yet she still walked like a queen, still

projected an aura of grace and authority. The emperor had decided that if he couldn?t beat her

Christianity out of her, he would convince her of her error, or at least convince the public of her

error, by putting her up against 50 of the finest minds in the country. Given how calm she looked,

Lucius wasn?t sure it was a particularly good plan.

The head of the university, acting as the chair and sitting on a dais in the centre of the stage, called

the hall to silence then invited Catherine to explain the central tenets of her faith. The philosophers

sat to the left of the stage, the emperor and his entourage on a dais behind them as Catherine and

her guards stood to the right. Lucius couldn?t take it all in, if he were honest - it all seemed a bit

unlikely and a bit complicated ? so he contented himself with gazing at her as she strode back and

forth, commanding the audience. She had an astonishing natural authority that went beyond her

beauty, but mostly he was just staring at her lovely face and the proud swell of her chest.

The philosophers were called on to answer and to question her. Lucius barely understood a word of

it, but he could tell that she was at least holding her own. On and on it went, questions from

different bearded men and then her calmly and patiently refuting their arguments. The emperor,


Lucius could see, was becoming increasingly frustrated. He?d clearly thought these academic would

destroy her, but on the contrary, she was destroying them.

It was undeniably impressive and Lucius began to wonder if there might be something in Christianity

after all. He?d always assumed it was a crank religion, like so many of these cults that sprang up, but

the way she presented it, maybe there was a logic. Certainly it seemed inspiring as this beautiful

woman, undeterred by a flogging, argued it out with the finest minds in the country. The emperor?s

face was becoming redder and redder. This couldn?t end well.

Finally, after perhaps an hour of debate, the emperor snapped. Lucius saw him call one of his

advisors to him and murmur something in his ear. The advisor looked stunned but, after a moment?s

pause, he hurried down to the head of the university. The chair asked Catherine to wait and then

turned to the adviser. Lucius saw them have a fevered, hushed conversation. He clearly wasn?t

happy, but eventually, the chair turned back to the audience. His face was grim.

?There are concerns about the format of this debate,? he said, a flat stoniness to his voice. ?There is

a feeling that Lady Catherine may be using some form of witchcraft to make her case.?

He paused, closed his eyes deliberately and then, gathering his composure, went on. ?To ensure she

is not using any sort of amulet or other magical token,? he said, ?she will disrobe before continuing

the debate.?

There was uproar. Some of the audience seemed appalled and there were cries of disapproval.

Others seemed rather to relish the prospect and were just as vocal in calling for her to be stripped.

There were scuffles and punches were thrown, even among the well-heeled citizens who?d taken the

best places in the hall. Outside, Lucius dreaded to think what was going on but he could hear roars

and shouts. He moved from his position by the wall towards the nearest seats and slowly, as the

spectators recognised the approach of the soldiers, the hubbub died down.

On stage, though, the directive had dramatic consequences. One of the theologians stood up and

insisted he would refuse to continue if Catherine was stripped. The director of the academy merely

shrugged and the theologian stormed off. Six others followed him. Only Catherine seemed calm

amid the chaos. As the shouting and the arguments finally died down and silence fell across the hall,

she looked at the director. He nodded, his face ashen. She looked to the emperor, then with an easy

grace, as though it were the most natural thing in the world, slipped off her outer robes to stand in

just her shift.


The silence in the hall was stunning. Every pair of eyes was fixed on the same thing, everybody, it

seemed, holding their breath. Lucius had seen her naked before, but he felt a tightness in his

stomach, desperate to see her breasts again. She gave a slight twitch of the head and her lips moved

in a silent prayer, and then she took hold of her shift by the neck and pulled it up. Time seemed to

move more slowly than usual. First her supple legs were revealed, then the white band of her

loincloth - just a strip of linen stretched across her cunt and then wrapped three times around her

buttocks and waist, then her fine stomach and ribs and then, after an infinitesimal pause, at last the

shift came over her head and her breasts were exposed, as round and full and proud as he

remembered them. Was that pause significant, Lucius wondered? Was that just a flicker of doubt?

She threw down the shift on top of her robes, gave another toss of her head, a gesture that made

her breasts tremble on her chest, and then turned to face the theologians once again. If the

hesitation had indicated shame, it had clearly soon passed.

A ripple passed through the audience. Her beauty was extraordinary, her composure even more so.

She should have been ridiculous, naked but for a loin cloth on a stage in the most serious academic

institution in the country, preparing to carry on an argument with a crowd of white-bearded, white-

robed theologians, but instead it was as though she were the one in control, even though the four

guards, one of them now collecting her clothing, gave clear evidence of her status as a prisoner.

The crowd may have been staring at her chest, but Lucius was stunned by something else: her back.

She?d been caned a week earlier; her back should have been streaked by wheals and bruises yet

from where he was standing it looked smooth, marked by only faint pink lines How could she have

healed so quickly? He thought back to the flogging, to her calmness. The lashing had seemed brutal;

could Marcus and Gellus have faked it? But he?d seen her back afterwards, seen the marks ? they

were real.

She stood bare-breasted before the philosophers, carrying on her line of thought as though nothing

had happened, gesturing with her hands as she always did, apparently unaware that each movement

set her breasts wobbling, sending murmurs of desire through the audience. The debate didn?t go on

long, though. A tall, hollow-cheeked philosopher stood, raising a hand to stop her. ?This is a farce,?

he said. ?A disgrace.? He walked off the stage. Other theologians stood as though to follow him, but

as they did so a tremendous roar sounded from the yard and people began pouring in to the back of

the hall, the news that she?d been stripped having led to a surge.

*

The dust in the yard was stained red. That morning, the 50 theologians had all been beheaded, lined

up and brought forward one by one to lay their head on the block. Some of them, it was said, had

converted to Christianity, but clearly they were being killed for the way Catherine had outwitted

them. They?d made her watch, keeping her kneeling facing each one. For most, she?d have been the


last thing they saw on this earth. Which, Lucius though, wasn?t the worst way to go. She?d seemed

appalled, though. Although she?d clearly tried to remain calm, he?d seen her blinking away tears ?

the first real emotion he?d seen from her. This afternoon, he expected to see more: she?d been

sentenced to 50 lashes ? one for each theologian. And this time they?d been told not to show her the

same respect.

The gate to the cells opened and she was hustled through. Last time she?d been led; this time there

was more hostility. One of the guards behind her gave her a shove and she half fell, only a cuff back

in the other direction keeping her upright. Lucius was one of the eight soldiers bringing her to be

flogged; he had been deputed to lead from the front left with Ligarius to his right. He deliberately

paused and as she was pushed closer, he thrust out his left hand so the heel caught her chest just

above the left breast. Four inches lower and he?d have got a proper feel, but he suspected that

would come. She stumbled back at which the weight of the soldiers behind made her fall forward,

sprawling on the dusty earth. It was much harder for her to maintain her dignity when they were

buffeting her like this.

?Get up, bitch,? Ligarius shouted and she was hauled up by her hair. She gave a shriek and they

threw her down again so she sprawled in front of the centurion?s table. A soldier took each arm and

pulled her to her feet. The centurion looked her up and down, contempt on his face. ?Strip her,? he

said.

Lucius stepped forward. Two soldiers held her and the other six set about her, wrenching off her

outer robes. He sensed fear and there was a flicker of panic in her eyes. Why was this different, he

wondered, but only momentarily, for his hands were on her linen shift, holding it on the left

shoulder. The soldiers holding her tipped her forward and they yanked it over her head. As he pulled

the cloth with his left hand, Lucius made sure her allowed his right to slide over her breast. It was full

and warm and firm and magnificently smooth. They backed off, leaving just one soldier on each arm,

exposing her to the centurion. ?Naked,? he said laconically, and the four of them rushed forwards to

wrench off her loincloth.

She seemed to be breathing oddly, in bursts through her nose as though her jaw were too tense

properly to open. ?Scared are you?? Lucius taunted. ?Worried your god won?t protect you?? And yet

even as he said it, he saw her back, smooth and even but for the faintest pink streaks. That was not

the skin of somebody who?d been flogged eight days earlier. They spun her round to face the post

and then deliberately threw her down again. She fell to her knees. The eight of them were on her

immediately, pulling her up, letting their hands wander then shoving her forward again.


She hit the ground hard, her hands sliding out in front of her so for a moment she just lay, spread

out there naked in the dust. Lucius grabbed her by the hair and pulled her up. She yelled, and her

hands went instinctively to her scalp. Ligarius immediately reached round and grabbed her breasts,

squeezing them under the pretext of helping her up. ?You killed 50 men this morning,? he said. ?Are

you proud of that??

They hustled her forward to the post, ramming her against it, knocking the breath out of her so for a

couple of seconds she coughed and wheezed. They used the time ? not that she was resisting - to

fasten the cuffs over her wrists. The chains were tightened, stretching her over the stone until she

was stood on tiptoes, embracing the column. Lucius looked up at the balcony where the emperor

stood impassively, his arms folded.

She was scared, though, and that fascinated him. She wasn?t terrified. She wasn?t kicking and

screaming or promising to blow the whole regiment if they?d go easy on her, but there was a tension

there that hadn?t been there before. This wasn?t the same fearless woman who?d taken her first

flogging with barely a flicker. He remembered that moment of hesitation as she?d stripped at the

academy and wondered why ? what had changed? Was it the humiliation of baring her breasts

before a crowd of citizens rather than soldiers? Was it the memory of 10 lashes and fearing suffering

five times more than that? Or could it be that she was beginning to doubt, beginning to question her

faith in a god who would make her endure this?

Marcus and Gellus stood by the table bearing the whips, taking their time selecting their canes.

They?d been embarrassed by her stoicism last time and were determined to make her suffer this.

They insisted they?d lashed her has hard as they lashed anybody, and yet her tanned back, stretched

out in the sunlight, showed minimal damage. She watched them, and Lucius wondered whether that

were another sign of weakness. Marcus flexed a long white cane in his hands, emphasising its bend,

and then slashed it through the air, laughing as he caught her eye.

Ligarius stepped up, and swept her dark hair from her back, pushing it over her left shoulder. As he

did so, Lucius saw clearly, he ran his hand down over her breast. She gave him a stare, teeth

clenched and he mockingly blew her a kiss. He moved tight behind her, under the pretext of making

sure she was securely fastened and let his hands wander over her smooth buttocks. As she stiffened,

he let his right and move between her legs and ? Lucius was sure ? fingered her cunt. She gave a

slight gasp and skipped. Ligarius patted her and took his place back in the guard.

?The sentence,? the centurion said, ?is 50 lashes. You may end this at any time by agreeing to

sacrifice a chicken in the temple to our gods. If you agree to do this, speak now.?


?I am a Christian,? she said, her voice wavering only slight. ?The Lord is my god.?

The centurion glanced over his shoulder at the emperor. The emperor nodded. ?Proceed,? the

centurion said.

Marcus and Gellus took their positions either side of her. Lucius was in the ideal spot, just to the side

of the post on Marcus?s side. He could see the side of her breast, the curve flattened a little by the

post. He could see her golden skin, the fine curves of her shoulders, back, buttocks and thighs. And

he could see her face as she pushed her forehead against the stone, her full lips fluttering in

prayer.

Marcus flexed the cane again. He took a couple of gentle practice swings, took three paces and

smashed the cane into her back. It was the hardest lash Lucius had ever witnessed. Marcus?s left

foot came up and he pivoted on his right. Catherine?s head flew back. Her eyes widened, her lips

parted, but her teeth were set and she gave little more than a gasp. A purple line appeared

immediately across her back, as though dividing it precisely in half. ?One.?

Gellus whipped deliberately downwards, flicking his cane across her shoulders. It was purposefully

cruel, an attempt to flay the skin. It surprised her, and she gave a startled whimper as a mark

perhaps an inch and a half across opened on the curve of her left shoulder. ?Two.? Marcus streaked

his second down from her right shoulder and her head flew back. Lucius saw her eyes closed with

pain, but she held back a scream. It would come, though; he was sure of that.

Gellus laid the fourth on the soft skin beneath her ribs, the cane whipping round to dig in. There was

blood and she at last gave a semi-scream, a pained exhalation really, as her body lurched to the

right. Her teeth were still set together and she breathed in sharp, shallow gasps that hissed through

them. Marcus went vertical, striking her left shoulder where the skin had been flayed by Gellus?s first

lash. ?Ngnya,? she yelped, managing to check a full scream as her head flew up to the right. There

was a quiver in her breathing as she regained her equilibrium. Gellus cut diagonally across her back

and her head flew back. ?Six.?

Sweat beaded on her brow. Marcus hit her horizontally, a few inches below the first stripe he had

left, grunting with the effort. She arched, her stomach thrusting into the post. Lucius could see the

effort she was making not to scream, but he knew it was coming. This was brutal, two strong men

hitting her as hard as they could. The eighth, delivered to the broadest part of her back, sent a

shudder coursing through her, but still no more than a grunt came from her lips.


And then Marcus targeted her arse. His strike was fearsome again. Lucius saw how deep it went into

the cheeks, the flesh seeming to close in around the cane. Her body tensed, her legs snapping

together as she seemed to push her cunt against the post. Tremors passed through her legs. And

then came an agonised sob: ?Aaah? ? barely more than that, but they knew. Gellus whipped hard

into her thighs. ?Nyah... nyaargghhh... nyaaaaarghhhh!!!? For a moment her knees gave way, but

she gathered herself, stood again and, forehead pressed to post, took rapid breaths through

clenched teeth.

The centurion ordered them to pause, and for a time the yard was silent but for her panting. ?Lady

Catherine,? said the centurion. ?Will you make the sacrifice??

?No,? she said, with surprising force.

?Proceed,? said the centurion with a shrug.

Marcus wound up again, and lashed into her upper thighs. Her buttocks quivered at the impact and

again she pushed her thighs together. Perhaps she was expecting another one down there, but

Gellus was too smart for that. He flayed down the gentle arc where her neck moved into her back,

leaving a hideous welt perhaps two inches broad. And this time she did scream, her head flying back,

her mouth wide. Marcus didn?t even wait for her to finish. With incredible force he whipped across

her shoulder blades, the cane cracking against the taut muscle. ?Fourteen.? A trickle of blood ran

from the right side of Marcus?s blow. It was relentless now. Her buttocks, her thighs, the small of her

back, her shoulders, the centre of her back again. As they paused on twenty, her breath came in only

whimpers, sweat soaking her brow.

?Will you make the sacrifice?? the centurion asked. Lucius looked up at the emperor. As she said no,

he shook his head. ?Proceed,? said the centurion.

Marcus brushed the sweat from his forehead with the back of his wrist, then flew in again. Lucius,

transfixed by the sight of her breast pressed against the post, was almost shocked by the

suddenness as the cane whistled into her back. She gave an exhausted grunt and began praying

under her breath. Gellus went for her thighs, making her legs twitch, sending shudders through her.

Marcus aimed slightly higher and again Lucius was shocked by just how deep the cane penetrated

into the cheeks. Gellus struck almost the same place and a small trickle of blood began to flow.

?Twenty-four,? came the centurion?s call. A little lower from Marcus, on that sensitive line between


buttock and thigh and her left leg kicked up as she gave a high pitched shriek. Then Gellus gave one

of his flicky lashes, whipping off flesh and sending shudders through her legs again. Each breath now

sounded tortured, her head lolling against her arm, her strength slowly being sapped. Marcus went

low again, just above her knees and her head snapped back. This time, her head hung limp back

from her neck, so she stared at the sky. ?Twenty-seven.?

Her lips were still moving. Gellus aimed deliberately at one of the patches of flayed skin. She

shrieked, spasms passing through her as another rivulet of blood appeared. ?Twenty eight.? Marcus,

leaping almost as he delivered the next one, crashed the cane into her shoulder blades. There was a

tremendous whump, a sharp exhalation of breath, and Lucius realised the cane had broken. Grinning

as Gellus laid another one into her backside, Marcus snapped it completely in two and shoved the

broken ends towards her face. She jerked angrily away and he laughed, throwing the broken halves

down and striding off to the table to select a new implement.

?Will you make the sacrifice?? the centurion asked.

She was breathing with difficulty, sucking the air in through her nose and clenched teeth. ?No,? she

said, but she didn?t sound at all certain. She adjusted her position, standing more naturally, half-

turning to face Marcus so Lucius could just see her nipple. On her face was a mix of fury and pain,

but also defiance. The new cane crashed into her waist. She closed her eyes and winced, but

managed to hold back the scream. ?Thirty-one.? Gellus went for the thighs again. She pressed

herself into the post, her cheek rubbing against the stone, he eyes tight shut. ?Thirty-three... thirty-

four... thirty-five...? It was relentless, but somehow she held it together, hugging the stone, her eyes

closed, her teeth clenched. But then Gellus whipped down on the curve at the top of her left

buttock, stripping off a band of skin. She howled, twitching involuntarily. As her body settled, Lucius

could see her heart pounding, sending tremors through her breasts.

Marcus mercilessly struck the raw stripe, bringing a loud scream and drawing a streak of blood.

?Thirty-seven.? Gellus, cruelly, caned her there again, a few spots of blood flying up as the rod

landed. She shouted in pain. She was shivering now, beads of sweat clear on her brow, her strength

clearly sapped. Marcus struck her just above her knees and her body seemed to give way, twitching

a couple of times and then subsiding so she hung by her wrists, her feet limp against the sand at her

feet. Gellus, expert that he was, lashed her shoulder where the muscle stood tense with the strain.

?Forty.?

She trembled, her head turned to the side, cheek against the stone, seeming to stare at Lucius,

mouth open as she took in air in gulps. Her back, buttocks and thighs were streaked with welts and


bruises, blood running from five or six points. Slowly, gathering her strength, she pushed her toes

into the earth and stood again.

?Will you make the sacrifice?? asked the centurion.

?Never,? she said, her voice determined.

She flicked her head, her hair now spilling onto her back, pressed her forehead against the post and

readied herself for the final ten lashes. Lucius couldn?t help but be impressed by her courage. She

clearly genuinely believed in this Christianity thing. He looked up at the emperor, who stood as

impassive as ever.

Marcus showed no mercy, whipping low across the middle of her back. She grunted but no more.

Gellus smacked the middle of her buttocks, and when Marcus followed that up with a lash that

caught the inside of her left thigh, her legs gave way again. She hung, limp, as Gellus hit her across

the shoulder blades, only a twitch showing she was still conscious. ?Forty-four.?

Shudders shook her body as Marcus crashed the cane down again, both feet leaving the ground as

he drew blood, and her head again lolled so she was looking at Lucius. He saw the dark eyes, racked

with pain and yet there was a warmth to them. She was murmuring to herself, clearly concentrating

hard. Gellus hit her low, at the base of her buttock, making the flesh wobble. She groaned, a low

agonised moan that hadn?t ceased when Marcus slashed across the top of her shoulders. ?Forty-

seven.? She sobbed, tears that racked her body, but it was clear she was going to come through this.

Gellus flicked at her arse again, adding a long welt on the right cheek to go with the one on her left.

For a moment her sobs gained in intensity, but then she sank back into the same low keening as

though her brain couldn?t assimilate more pain. Marcus, though, wasn?t done with her, and his final

lash was aimed precisely on the flayed skin Gellus had just opened. Her body spasmed and came to

rest again, a howl briefly breaking the sobs. ?Forty-nine.?

Gellus waited, as though considering exactly where to lay the final lash. In the end, he went for the

buttocks, crashing the cane deep into the bruised flesh. A sharp moan broke the sobbing, but only

for a moment and she was left hanging, weeping uncontrollably. The centurion left her for a few

moments, allowing everybody to take in the sight. From knees to shoulders she was covered in

bruises and welts, blood running freely in patches. Then he gave the order to take her down. There

was no strength left in her, and when her left wrist was unfastened, she fell to hang by the right.


She fell exhausted to the ground, slumped with her back to the post. From the front, she looked as

perfect as ever, her skin even and golden, the full breasts triumphantly round, the thighs so smooth

Lucius just wanted to lick them and wrap them round his head. But there was no time for such

thoughts. They pulled her to her feet and dragged her limp body to face the centurion, her breasts

dangling, so luscious they seemed almost to shape in at the top before meeting her chest. There was

a skein of mucus linking her nose to her chin, but she seemed too exhausted to do anything about

it.

They held her in front of the centurion, unsure whether they should still be taunting her or whether

her punishment was over. Her head flopped loosely and if they?d let go of her arms she?d have

collapsed. Lucius looked down her beaten back, at the purple-welted buttocks and at her thighs with

the bluish lines. Whatever had happened the first time, there could be no doubt these were genuine

wounds, that she?d been savagely flogged.

?Stand up straight,? the centurion ordered.

She couldn?t. The soldiers shook her and hauled her up. ?Where?s your god now?? one asked. ?Is he

protecting you? Is he giving you strength?? She looked at him with disgust, pity and shame in her

eyes.

?Will you make the sacrifice?? the centurion asked.

She looked exhausted, but took a deep breath. ?I have no god but the Lord my God,? she said, her

voice little more than a whisper. ?I will not make a sacrifice.?

The centurion shrugged. ?The emperor is going away,? he said. ?You are to be imprisoned until his

return. You will be given water but no food until you make the sacrifice.?

He looked at the soldiers. ?Take her away,? he said.

*

Lucius had seen the screens on the podium, had known something was being built behind them but

it was only now that he discovered just what. There?d been rumours that it was some great engine of

torture, something devised to make Catherine suffer and they?d speculated what it could be but

none had come close. It was a huge wooden wheel, maybe 12 feet high, held about six inches off the


ground by an axel. The rim was about three feet across and in one six-foot section of the

circumference the wood had been replaced by metal rollers on each of which were a series of tiny

spiked wheels. Catherine was to be stripped and fastened with her back to that, so her body would

rest on hundreds of tiny spikes. But the clever bit was underneath. Set on springs in the wooden

plinth beneath the wheel were more of the spiked rollers. Every half hour they were to turn the

wheel, pressing her body between the two sets of spikes.

A huge crowd had gathered to watch her execution, which was hardly surprising. Not only was she

famous and beautiful, but events of the past week had added to her notoriety. The emperor had

been away a little over a fortnight, which Catherine, wearing only her shift, had spent largely in

prayer. They hadn?t fed her, and yet she didn?t seem to have got any weaker; if anything, in fact,

she?d staged a remarkable recovery after her flogging. But then the emperor?s wife, an attractive

woman in her early forties, had started to visit her. They?d talked for hours and hours, day after

day.

When the emperor had returned, his wife had demanded he release Catherine, declaring herself a

Christian. The emperor, understandably, had been furious. He?d set his torturers to devise some

special torment for Catherine and had pleaded with his wife to reconsider. She, though, refused to

perform a sacrifice in the temple. So, at dawn three days ago, she?d been brought out into the

punishment yard. Catherine, in her tattered and filthy shift had been there, forced to watch as the

emperor pleaded with his wife for one final time. His wife, though, remained firm, knelt down calmly

and lay her pretty head on the block, pushing her hair to one side to leave her delicate neck bare.

She and Catherine had joined together in a prayer and the Gaius, the executioner, had swept down

his sword and decapitated her.

Even as her body was being cleared away and her blood soaked up with sawdust, the emperor had

approached Catherine. To the astonishment of everyone, he?d taken her hand and stared into her

dark eyes. ?Marry me,? he?d said. She?d stood silent for a moment, half-naked, the blood from her

flogging showing through her shift.

?No,? she?d said calmly. ?I am betrothed to my God and I will not betray Him.?

He?d looked at her with fury. He?d offered her wealth and power, offered even to recognise

Christianity as one of the official religions, but she?d remained steadfast. ?Then you will suffer the

consequences of your stubbornness,? he said.

She?d smiled softly. ?And you will suffer the consequences of yours in the afterlife,? she said.


And that was why Catherine now stood, clad in only her tattered shift, wrists bound behind her

facing the device on which she?d be tortured to death. She seemed calm, but what bothered Lucius

was how unaffected she seemed by what they?d done to her. There was no gauntness in her face,

her breasts still strained against the filthy cloth of her shift, jiggling enticingly as she walked. Nobody

would know they?d starved her. And she walked seemingly without discomfort. Around three weeks

after a flogging that severe, that made no sense.

Lucius watched as they marched her up the steps that led to the platform that stood level with the

top of the wheel. There were thousands in the square. He?d seen them inspecting the wheel,

realising how the spikes would tear into her body, how each movement of the main wheel, each

shift of her weight would turn the small wheels, pressing another spike into her flesh.

Catherine stood on the platform, flanked by four soldiers and the centurion who oversaw

punishments. She seemed calm, surveying the crowds and the wheel with interest rather than

terror. ?One last chance,? the centurion said. ?Will you renounce Christianity and make the

sacrifice??

?Never,? she said.

The centurion nodded and stepped to the edge of the platform so as not to obstruct the view of the

crowd. ?Strip her,? he ordered.

The crowd, who had been talking among themselves, fell quiet. Two of the soldiers stepped forward.

They left the bonds on her wrists and each took hold of her tattered, blood-stained shift by the neck.

In one movement they wrenched at it and it tore. They ripped it away from her body and she was

naked, those fabulous breasts exposed to the gaze of the crowd. Lucius was a little behind her,

though, so stared at her back. It was incredible: the skin was marked, but with nothing like the

savage welts you?d expect from a flogging that had taken place just three weeks ago. There were

pink lines and the odd shadow hinting at bruising, but she had healed with miraculous speed.

The soldiers kicked the backs of her knees, holding her to cushion her fall. Two took her arms and

two her legs. Lucius saw her breasts lolling on her chest and wondered if there would ever be a

moment when the sight of them didn?t make his heart skip a beat. She didn?t resist as they picked

her up and carried her to the wheel. Two soldiers came to the platform on the far side and her right


arm and leg were passed over, so that she was held by four soldiers over the spikes. Slowly, almost

gently, they lowered her.

She kept staring straight up, almost refusing to acknowledge the spikes until they lay her on them.

Lucius watched her eyes close, teeth locked together, the silent grimace as her back and then her

buttocks came into contact with the wheel. They positioned her so her head lay on wood;

presumably so she couldn?t dash her head against the spikes and hasten her death. Her arms were

pulled taut and secured in thick leather cuffs above her head. Soldiers at the base of the wheel

turned it slowly backwards while those on the platform held her legs so she was stretched out.

Her breasts fell back on her chest as her body rolled back. Her eyes were half-closed, her face

twisted in pain as they fastened cuffs around her ankles. The cuffs were affixed to chains that they

pulled tight through eyelets on the rim, then fastened. The wheel turned again until her legs were

once more below the level of her torso. The soldiers pulled again on the chains holding her wrists to

the wheel, tightened them, stretching her. When they were satisfied, they turned the wheel again so

that she faced the crowd. There was a great roar as her nakedness was revealed to them again,

stretched out this time in an elongated X, the curve of the wheel pushing her chest out towards

them.

The centurion ostentatiously overturned a huge hour-glass that stood by the wheel; when the sand

ran through, they?d roll her over the spikes. Until then, Lucius realised, it was as though she were

being crucified, her weight taken by her ankles and wrists and ? a little ? by the spikes that dug into

her back, buttocks and thighs. He edged a little closer, looking with fascination at the way those little

wheels dug into her. Blood was already beginning to drip from her onto the dais. As Lucius got closer

still he could hear how anguished her breathing sounded. Her arms were taut, the muscles standing

out, her head pushed back against the wheel, eyes fixed on the cloudless sky. He watched her

shuffle, taking the weight on her legs, and he saw her grimaces as she shifted on the spikes. He

realised then what a magnificent engine of torture this was. There would be no respite: the pain of

hanging, the pain of the spikes, the humiliation of being stretched naked in public.

At first the crowds seemed awed by the sight, but slowly they began to press forward, first to the

bottom of the steps and then, gradually, closer and closer. Soldiers made sure they didn?t get too

close, but Lucius could see the expressions of wonder on the faces of a group of boys who?d pushed

their way to the front. They could only have been 10 or 11 and pointed at her breasts, laughing and

joking. He wanted to be closer and edged nearer under the pretence of helping keep the crowds

back.


A grey-haired woman came running up. ?You deserve this,? she shrieked. ?You deserve this. Look at

you. You have no shame. You were always displaying yourself. Trying to lure away my man.? Who

her man was there was no clue. Catherine looked down at her, her teeth still clenched in pain.

?Whore!? the woman shouted. ?Whore! No attempt to cover yourself. Exposing your body to every

passing man. Whore!?

There was an embarrassed silence, broken only when boys laughed. ?Whore!? they repeated,

mocking the woman as much as Catherine. Others joined in and the woman ran off. Catherine just

hung. She seemed in some kind of trance, her lips moving as though in prayer, her eyes fixed on a

point in the middle distance. Every now and again she would shuffle, shifting her weight as far as she

could, but this wasn?t like crucifixion; she was stretched too tight to dance as those on the cross

would. All she could do was try to take more weight on her arms or her legs, and even that meant

pulling herself a short distance over the spikes. Lucius would see the bicep flex or the ripple of

muscle in her thigh, but that aside she was remarkably still.

Then one of the priests from the local temple emerged from the crowd, people standing back to let

him through. He stood in front of her, no more than four feet away so she had to look at him.

?Catherine,? he intoned. ?Where is your god now?? She held his gaze impassively. ?Where is this

Lord of whom you preached? Has he abandoned you?? There was laughter from the crowd. ?Where

is he? Is this how he treats his flock? Is this your reward for your devotion? To display yourself naked

in public on a torture engine??

She stared at him, teeth clenched, beads of sweat standing out on her forehead. ?See how she has

no answer?? the priest called. ?See her defeat? Where is her god??

The crowd, pressing closer so the soldiers began to move to hold them back, laughed. Lucius saw the

hatred and mockery on their faces. More shouted, ?Where is he? Where?s your god?? A tall bearded

man pushed to the front. ?Is he on holiday? Away on business? Or does he not exist? Have you been

talking nonsense? ?

?Maybe he is here,? shouted an older man. ?Maybe he?s just having too much fun looking at those

tits to save her.? There were hoots of laughter and jeers.

She looked up, her eyes closed. ?She has no answer,? said the priest and the crowd fell quiet to hear

him. ?Either her god has left her no better than a whore or her fine words were empty. She lied to

you. She deceived you.?


The crowd roared in a mixture of anger and mockery. ?Well,? called the priest. ?Where is he? Is he

coming to save you? Hush everybody, maybe we can hear her lord coming down to release her form

this wheel.?

The crowd fell quiet, shushing each other laughingly until there was silence. Then she spoke. Her

voice was calm and clear, her deep brown eyes burned with passion. She must have been in agony,

but she sounded as in control as she had on stage in the academy. ?What do you know of my Lord??

she asked. ?I humbly obey His will. I may not understand His purpose but if He has deemed I should

be tortured and put to death like this then I shall accept it. He gave His only Son to die on the cross

for our sins; my privilege is to be martyred.?

?This is your god?s plan?? the priest taunted, and he took his staff and lifted her left breast with the

end of it, jabbing her before letting it fall. She winced as she was pushed back onto the spikes.

She turned to him. ?My faith is strong,? she said. ?I could renounce my God now and they would cut

me down from this wheel. But I will endure this for it is His will.?

?She?s mad,? the priest cried. ?She?s a witch.? And with that he spat on her and walked away.

It was as though a dam had broken. Suddenly everybody was spitting. The soldiers held the mob

back as best they could, holding their javelins out to form a barrier, but they could do nothing to

stop them leaning in spitting and shouting. Catherine hung still, spittle dotting her flesh, the only

movement her mouth as she prayed silently. Lucius found himself pitying her. Proud she may have

been, stubborn too, and stupid to turn down the emperor but he wasn?t sure she deserved this,

degraded and tortured before a baying mob. Did they hate her for being a Christian? Or were they

just enjoying the public humiliation of a wealthy and beautiful woman?

On and on it went, people pushing others out of the way to yell ?Witch!? and spit at her. Soon she

was covered, her noble body drenched in spittle and sweat. Only when it was pointed out that the

sand had almost run through the glass did the mob back off, watching the final few grains dribble

through. The soldiers took their positions by the side of the wheel. The brake was released and they

began to turn it.


First she went back, slowly, her body rising until she was lying facing the sky. Lucius could hear her

groans as the blood rushed back into her aching muscles and her weight shifted on the spikes.

Slowly, slowly she went on, back until her breasts fell back and she hung upside down, her teeth

gritted against the pain. On she went until she could see through her tumbling hair to the spikes

under the wheel. She seemed to kick at that and Lucius wondered if that were the first sign of panic

and she neared the rollers. On the wheel went, remorselessly.

Her fingers crept above the rollers into the narrow space between the wheel and the spikes below.

On the wheel went. The spikes started to dig in just beyond her wrists. He heard a noise, half

whimper, half grunt, and watched, fascinated, as the wheel kept going, dozens of spikes now

penetrating her arms. The blood was obvious, springing up from the puncture wounds to dribble

over her arms. Lucius remember holding them before her second flogging, remembered their

smooth softness; they were ruined now.

The wheel stopped with her hanging upside down, her head just short of the spikes. And then they

began to turn it again in the other direction, pulling her arms back between the spikes. Her eyes

were closed, her lips pulled back to revel clenched teeth. Her breathing came in hisses but there was

no scream. The wheel kept turning and slowly her arms were revealed. There was blood everywhere

from the forearm up - thick, deep red blood running from the cuts and dripping onto the dais. And

that was her arms: what would those spikes do to the thicker parts of her body? To her thighs? Her

belly? To her tits?

The wheel turned. The crowd, several thousand strong now, cheered as her feet came into view. On

it went. Her legs. Lucius saw a small group of onlookers, simply clad, maybe a dozen strong, refusing

to join in the general celebratory air. A pretty dark-haired girl wept and was comforted by a grey-

haired man next to her. Her cunt. More cheers. Her torso. Her breasts rolled forwards to their

familiar position, prompting roars. Then the true horror of her arms became visible and there were

gasps as they saw the blood. The dark-haired girl screamed. Were they Christians, Lucius wondered.

On the wheel turned. Her legs went past the vertical. They held her for a couple of moments. The

wheel inched on. Her breasts began to fall away from her chest, swaying magnificently. Her toes got

to the rollers and they applied the brake again.

The centurion walked up to her. He grabbed her hair and twisted so she had to face him. ?Will you

make the sacrifice?? he asked. She was naked, cover in sweat and spittle, blood was running freely

down her arms, but she was magnificent. ?Never,? she said. The centurion shoved her head away

and nodded at the soldiers manning the wheel. The crowd was silent, the only noise was the creak of

the wood. Slowly her shins disappeared. From his vantage point to the side, Lucius could see the

spikes cutting deep into her calves, the little wheels turning as her shins were pricked.


On it went. Her knees and then her thighs, the rollers dropping as she was squeezed through. Blood

was pouring over the springs. Her breathing was becoming moaning. He could see the tension in her

body as she tried to hold herself up, pressing onto the spikes that had already stabbed her. As her

hips passed under and the spikes were pressed deeper into her buttocks, her shins came out of the

other side. They were almost entirely red, blood oozing from the wounds in her calves. Her ribs slid

under and she screamed, one long harrowing howl that only ended when the breath was squeezed

from her body.

Blood ran down her thighs, matting her pubic hair. She was whimpering, short soft bursts of

agonised breath as the wheel crushed her. Lucius pushed through to see her breasts for one last

time. There was terror etched across her face. The wheel edged round and she found the breath to

scream again. He drank in the sight, the breasts hanging out from the chest, swelling in a smooth

curve away from her torso to a majestic roundness, tipped with perfect dark aureolae and nipples

that stood erect in fear. And then, slowly, they disappeared: the best breasts he or anyone else in

the square would ever see pulled onto the rollers. From his side-on position he saw the spikes press

into the soft flesh, saw the breasts squashed against her chest, saw the blood springing up. She was

shrieking now in terror, the wheel stopping just before her head was pulled under. For seconds she

rested, the spikes in her breasts and chest, and then the wheel began to go back again, revealing her

bloodied body to the crowd.

Her hands, face and feet aside, everything was red, covered in blood. She was shaking, a look on her

face like nothing Lucius had ever seen before ? agony and exhaustion, but also something else. Was

that doubt? She was weeping, her head hanging limp. He pushed his way closer, desperate to seem

her breasts. They?d retained their shape, and beneath the blood he could see the small wounds,

arranged in a strange grid a little under an inch apart. A soldier turned over the hour glass and she

hung, bleeding, her lips fluttering every now and again as she prayed.

The crowds seemed a little stunned by the savagery of the torture. For a while they held back, as

though horrified by the sight of the bloodied body. Lucius himself felt a little shocked by how much

damage the spikes had inflicted. Each one looked so small. He tried to calculate. Maybe 16 to 18

spikes across her body at its widest point? And say 4?6? tall if you didn?t count her head? So perhaps

60 or 70 down the length of her body. What was 60 multiplied by 16? 960? Her legs were thinner

than her shoulders but there were also her arms to consider. So maybe 1000 spikes. On her front

and back at the same time. And that was without counting the effect of the roll, of her being pulled

over turning spiked wheels. Little wonder she was drenched in blood.

Gradually the crowds began to push closer again, began to inspect the damage the wheel had done.

She seemed broken, head hanging limp, body still, her chest fluttering as she hauled in agonised

breaths. Then the priest was there again. He prodded her with his staff, as though making sure she

were conscious. ?Still sure you?re right?? he asked. ?Still sure your god will save you??


As his staff jabbed into her breast, she finally looked up. ?This is part of His plan,? she said. ?I will do

as my Lord commands.?

?Silence!? the priest called. ?Silence!? he hushed the crowd theatrically. ?Is that?? Can you hear??

Is that your lord? That clattering of hooves I hear??? But there was only silence and the crowd

roared with laughter.

When they had quietened down she spoke, her eyes aflame as she hissed at the priest, ?What does

your god think of you, playing with the breasts of a bound woman??

The crowd laughed at the priest?s discomfort. ?Is this what your religion teaches?? Catherine went

on. ?That when you have a woman defenceless in front of you that you should molest them because

you can?t get a woman any other way? Does this make you a big man??

He flushed, then lashed her with his staff, hard across her tits. Lucius saw her body driven back onto

the spikes, her head banging back against the wood. ?My god teaches me that witches must be

punished,? he said. ?That whores should be humiliated. And my god seems to be winning.? He spat

on her and the mob took that as its cue. There was a surge forward and suddenly they were all

spitting and jeering, taunting her. Some mocked her religion, most just laughed at her nakedness.

Lucius struggled to believe the hatred she attracted.

Only the small group remain aloof, eventually making their way forward. Lucius saw their sadness

and sympathy, saw the look Catherine gave them, saw her mouth the word, ?Go?. He realised he

wasn?t the only one to see the significance. As they shuffled back through the crowd, the centurion

called over one of the other soldiers and whispered some instructions.

*

Finally the sands ran out again. She hung limp, her breathing laboured, her body covered with spittle

and blood. The centurion seized her hair and forced her to look at him. ?Will you make the

sacrifice?? he said. She hesitated for a moment and Lucius wondered if she were broken. But then

her voice rasped out, ?No.? It was barely more than whisper and yet it carried a sense of great

authority. ?I will stay true to my Lord.?

The centurion shook his head and released her hair. He nodded to the soldiers and the wheel began

to turn back. She gave a great groan as the blood began to flow back into her numb arms and her


body shifted on the spikes. Again Lucius found himself watching her breasts as they lolled back on

her chest and then tumbled towards her face.

Her arms went under and he saw her body stiffen, heard her breathing change as the spikes dug in

and then the wheel turned back, agonisingly slowly, her breasts rolling back down her chest until

they hung free and her feet went over the rollers. Her face was twisted in pain, her white teeth

shining out from her olive face as she was dragged over the spikes. Her knees, her thighs. There

were howls of pain. Blood dripped freely underneath the wheel. On it turned, the stomach and then,

remorselessly, the breasts. She pressed her head back against the wood, eyes closed, neck muscles

tight, teeth clenched in agony. Each breath came as a groan.

The wheel turned back. Her breasts emerged, then the rest of the torso. Her whole body was

covered in blood, thick and dark. She trembled, breasts heaving, blood dripping from her. She let

loose a howl. ?My God!? she shouted, her face contorted with pain. ?My God! Release me from

this!? The crowd laughed and mocked her anguish. Lucius saw the priest grinning and he felt

intensely sorry for Catherine. He had thrilled to see her nudity, of course, but this was horrendous.

That first morning in the yard when she?d stripped and been caned had been one of the most

thrilling days of his life; now he felt a little nauseated by the way they were torturing her and

taunting her as she grappled with her faith.

She growled with pain, fists clenched, the muscles in her arms bunched. Her voice was hoarse but

she kept praying and begging. ?Lord, have mercy! Lord, have mercy! Forgive me my weakness, but

please Lord don?t abandon me!? The priest strode forward again, his face smug at her distress. He

stood before her and smiled. ?Where is he?? he asked. ?Where is your Lord??

She glared at him, fury burning in her eyes. ?We?re not having doubts are we? You?re not thinking

that maybe you?ve got this all wrong and that this agony isn?t your pathway to paradise? What if the

next life holds just more torture for you for your heresy? What if you?re turned on a wheel in

eternity??

She stared beyond him. ?Lord, give me strength!? she moaned through clenched teeth. ?Keep my

faith strong.? Lucius couldn?t help but be impressed by her courage.

A shadow fell over the square. Lucius looked up, surprised. Moments earlier the sky had been clear

blue, the sun beating down but now a small cloud had appeared. The priest kept taunting her,

prodding her with his staff. A breeze ruffled his robes and Lucius realised more clouds were on their


way, blown in from the east. He saw then building up on the horizon. The temperature dropped a

little.

A couple of boys, maybe seven or eight years old, ran up. Grinning, they pointed at her breasts, now

covered with thick dark blood. They seemed bewitched by her nakedness, then one shouted,

?Where?s your God?? and ran up to her, touching his hand to her public hair before dashing off

giggling. She jerked back as the mob laughed, jamming her upper back into the spikes. Her breasts

quivered and the crowd?s taunts grew in intensity. Her face racked with pain, she glanced at the

hour-glass. She had another 15 minutes or so before they turned her again. She was moaning

constantly now, her head rocking back and forth. She shouted again, incoherently now, and her head

slumped forwards. Lucius wondered for a moment if that might be it but her chest continued to rise

and fall.

She hung like that for a couple of minutes, then the centurion stepped forwards. He slapped her face

a couple of times, sharply but not hard, and when she barely responded, signalled for water to be

brought. As he did so, the clouds covered the sun, and the square fell into shadow. The breeze was

definitely picking up.

A bucket of water was thrown over her. She yelped, and her head snapped upright. She shivered,

her teeth tightly clenched so the muscles of her jaw stood out. The water washed away some of the

blood, revealing once again her tanned skin, now covered in goosebumps and dotted with small

rents. She trembled, water dripping from her, mixing with the blood. She looked up, high above the

crowd, her face set. ?My God,? she called. ?I am ready.? Her voice was clear, determined.

Lucius felt a splash of rain. He glanced up and saw the blackest sky he had ever seen. The heavens

opened. Rain lashed down, there was an enormous clap of thunder. Lucius pulled his cloak over his

head to try to keep off the worst of the deluge. The crowd scattered but Catherine hung impassive,

the rain sluicing the blood from her body.

There was a great flash and Lucius saw a white streak shoot down to the wheel. He smelled smoke

and then he saw the wheel lurch forwards. It bounced from its stand, tipping to the right and rolling

slowly on its rim towards the edge of the dais. It careered down the steps, spinning away to the

right, cutting through the few people who hadn?t rushed for cover. There were screams and shouts,

terrible screeches and bangs, and sparks flew as the metal parts clattered on the stone. Lucius ran,

chasing the wheel as turned and turned, falling lower and lower until it eventually came to rest on its

side in the centre of the square.


There were bodies strewn around where the wheel had ploughed into them. The rain hammered

down, dispersing puddles of blood. He could hear groans and pleas for help, but he had only one

focus. It was so dark it was difficult to see, but the shape of the wheel, flat to the ground, loomed

ahead of him. As he got there he realised Marcellus, one of his closest friends from the regiment,

was running alongside him.

He was terrified what he might find. He knew the point of the wheel was to torture and execute her,

but he didn?t want to find Catherine mangled or crushed. He and Marcellus, unspeaking, rushed

around to the other side of the wheel. She hung, limp but breathing, seemingly unmarked by the

wheel?s collapse. It must have turned on its side, Lucius realised, spinning on the edge of the rim and

keeping her off the ground. He went to her left ankle and began to unfasten the buckle. Her shins

were scratched and grazed, the wounds in her calf much deeper. His fingers were stiff with the rain

and he had to work hard at the stiff leather. As he did so, Marcellus worked at her right ankle.

As he worked he was struck again by how beautiful she was, how smooth the skin where the spikes

hadn?t gouged her. Her flank, the outside of her thigh, was virtually unmarked. Her leg came free. He

lowered it slowly, and she moaned as her body unpeeled from the spikes. The ones in her buttocks,

he saw, had penetrated an inch or so deep. The rain continued to pour down, but even as it washed

her there was an extraordinary amount of blood.

They moved to her wrists. She was moaning softly, apparently unaware of her surroundings, half-

hanging, half sprawled. The spikes dug into her back at new angles but she seemed not to notice or

to care. They unfastened her and she fell to lie face down on the stone. Her back and buttocks were

ravaged, ripped by hundreds of spikes. Working soundlessly as the rain lashed down Lucius and

Marcellus took an arm each and pulled her to her feet. She was too weak to stand, barely conscious,

her head lolling as they moved her.

Lucius and Marcellus hauled her across the square, her feet dragging through the puddles. Although

he could hear her breathing, Lucius wasn?t sure she would survive but he knew they had to get her

back to the prison, prevent any of the Christian groups rescuing her. As the rain lashed down, he

could barely look up, but he was vaguely aware of carnage all around, bodies and torn clothing and

blood. She even left a trail of blood as they pulled her over the cobbles.

As they reached the base of the podium the centurion saw them. ?Chain her, for fuck?s sake,? he?d

yelled. Two other soldiers emerged from the gloom, one of them bearing a set of manacles. Her

arms were yanked behind her and the heavy cuffs locked over her wrists. It was pointless, Lucius

knew; there was no chance of her escaping or resisting ? she was too exhausted for that. But as they

held her, relieving him for a moment, he couldn?t help himself. He didn?t dare be too blatant, but he


allowed his right hand to brush her left breast. Dotted with puncture wounds it may have been, and

chilled by the rain, but it was still wonderfully firm and round.

With two soldiers in from and two behind, he and Marcellus dragged her back to the fort. They

weren?t sure what to do with her so they took her back to the cell she?d left that morning. She was

so weak that as Marcellus unfastened her chains, two other guards had to hold her upright. This

time Lucius was bolder, taking her fabulous breasts in his hands, weighing them, caressing them.

He?d never known breasts that so combined pertness with size. He?d seen bigger but these were a

full handful and more and still had a springiness, smooth and buoyant despite the torture. He

realised suddenly she was looking at him. He caught her eye and he saw no anger or humiliation but

sadness. ?I forgive you,? she said softly. He dropped his hands almost guiltily and then they left

her.

*

The emperor had summoned her to him. The scene was vaguely ridiculous: him in his robes, the

plush surroundings of the throne room, a dozen soldiers in full uniform and a beautiful woman in

tattered, filthy rags. Two weeks had passed since the day of the storm. She?d spent the first night

lying exhausted and naked on the pallet but then some rags had been found for her and, as she?d

gained in strength, she?d spent most of her time kneeling in prayer. The mystery of why she hadn?t

starved had been solved ? although only with another mystery. Lucius had been giving her water

one day when a dove had flown to the small barred window. He?d seen it was clutching something in

its beak and, when he looked closer, saw that it was bread. It left it for her and flew off. So not only

had lightning saved her on the wheel but birds were feeding her.

Nobody had quite known what to do with Catherine. The wheel had killed nine people, including

three children, as it had careered across the square loose, with a further couple of dozen injured.

There?d been calls to put her to death, to find some other means of executing her, but the truth was

everybody was scared. The wheel had been struck a second time by lightning and had burned, a

charred ring in the square now an embarrassing reminder of their failure to kill her the first time.

They?d arrested the band of Christians who?d approached Catherine in the square but that aside

they?d waited for the emperor. He?d taken advice and now they were to hear his verdict.

Lucius always felt nervous in the emperor?s presence, all the more so now when there was such

tension in the air. Catherine was as calm and as dignified as ever. She terrified Lucius now. She

seemed again to have recovered remarkably quickly. There were marks on her skin ? and there was

plenty of it exposed by her rags - but nothing like as much as he?d expected. Her ability to recover

unnerved him; was this her god at work?


?Remove your clothes,? the emperor said and she obeyed quickly and calmly, shucking off the

tattered tunic to stand naked before them, unembarrassed, gorgeous. The marks of the cane had

faded almost entirely and while there were small nicks and tiny pale scars dotting her body, she was

once again a magnificent sight. The emperor looked her up and down, appraising her.

?Renounce your god and marry me,? he said.

?Never,? she replied, her voice calm and authoritative. ?I am wedded to Christ and will have no

other.?

Lucius feared what the emperor might do, but he remained perfectly calm. ?Then you will die

tomorrow,? he said. She kept looking straight at him. ?Behead her,? he said. ?Let?s keep it simple this

time. No mistakes.?

Lucius almost felt disappointed. Part of him respected and admired her for her strength of character,

and part of him lusted after her and that part wanted to see her naked, wanted even to punish her

for her beauty and see her tortured in some hideous way.

The centurion ordered them to dress her and place her in chains and when they?d done so, the

emperor stepped forward again. He caressed her cheek with his hand. ?Make her suffer,? he said,

not taking his eyes from her face. ?Have your fun with her tonight and scourge her in the

morning.?

Did that mean what he thought it meant? Lucius wasn?t sure. He felt a pang for the thought that he

had only around 18 hours to enjoy being around her, but his overriding emotion was excitement: 18

hours in which to play with her to do, if he understood correctly, what he wanted with her.

*

It was just going dark when they hauled her from her cell. There was no respect for her now; they

dragged her, pushing her on with the soles of their feet, laughing as she stumbled, cuffing her if she

paused. There were probably forty or fifty soldiers in the yard, clustered near a fire that burned at

one edge to keep them warm as the night grew chilly; more would come later when they went off

duty. They clustered around her, forming a loose circle perhaps ten yards across. Her chains were

removed. This was it. This was the start of her death. She stood, as though unconcerned, right arm

loose by her side, left hand holding the opposite elbow.


Ligarius took command. He stepped up to her. ?You?re going to entertain us,? he said, running his

hand along the line of her jaw. She shook her head, as though shaking off a fly. ?Now, we have

plenty of ways to have fun with you and not all of them are pleasant. So if I were you, I?d think of

how I could entertain us, because if we choose the entertainment it?s going to hurt.? She looked

impassively at him. ?So, first of all, strip for us. Maybe a dance. Entertain us.?

She looked at him and, as she had in front of the emperor, slipped out of her rags. She stood,

defiantly, naked in front of him. She?d put on no show, had stripped as matter-of-factly as was

possible. Ligarius smiled at her. ?Silly,? he said and slapped her left breast hard. Lucius found himself

admiring her courage in defying them, but he couldn?t take his eyes from her breasts as they

wobbled back and forth.

?So, you?re married, are you?? Ligarius asked.

?I am married to Christ,? she replied, her voice calm and confident.

?Then we must have a wedding service for you,? Ligarius said, clapping his hands sharply. One of the

jailers approached him and took a whispered order, running off with a grin on his face. Ligarius

stepped up to Catherine and pushed her, hard. She stumbled backwards into a clutch of soldiers who

shoved her back. They gathered in a circle round her, knocking her back and forth, jeering, laughing

as she stumbled, picking her up and throwing her forward again. Her hair flew about her, her breasts

bounced around her chest; she was made to look ridiculous, this elegant, beautiful woman

staggering between them. She clattered into Lucius and he held her for a moment, her soft back

against the cold metal of his breast-plate, his hands squeezing her breasts, then he brought his

hands back and shoved her hard so she went careering across the circle.

For five minutes they buffeted her, fondling and shoving, and then two jailers arrived, hauling

between them a slight dark-haired girl of around eighteen or nineteen. She was dressed in a tattered

dress and had clearly been beaten; Lucius recognised the pretty girl from the square. She carried a

pole perhaps six feet long, topped with a cross on which he could see a model of a man being

crucified. This, he knew, was the god of the Christians.

?So,? said Ligarius. ?You will marry your Christ, escorted by the lovely Miriam.?

He had clearly planned this. He had the soldiers line up to create an aisle down to the fire. The girl,

clutching her cross, was forced to walk between them, Catherine alongside her. Her head was


bowed, but she seemed obedient. The soldiers jeered at them, spitting and slapping. The girl was

crying and Catherine reached up to put a supportive hand on her arm. ?Look how in love they are,?

somebody shouted and there were hoots of laughter.

They reached the front and Ligarius made them face each other, pledge loyalty and their undying

love. Then he made Catherine kiss the figure on the cross. She did so, and Lucius felt a strange pang,

a desire to feel those rich lips on his. Ligarius pulled on a gauntlet and took a pair of tongs, plunging

them into the fire to withdraw something that glowed orange with heat. He held it aloft, and Lucius

saw that it was a piece of wire twisted to make a ring.

?Your wedding ring,? Ligarius said mockingly. ?Hold out your hand.?

Her face showed both disgust and fear. ?If you don?t offer you finger, the ring will go in interesting

parts of your friend?s anatomy. Then we?ll hold you down and force it on you.? Miriam gave a sharp

scream.

Slowly, Catherine held out her left hand, extending her long elegant fingers. The soldiers pressed

closer. Ligarius returned the ring to the flames. She stood, seemingly calm, arm outstretched,

without a tremor. Ligarius withdrew the ring again. He took the tongs in his bare hand and with

them and the gauntleted hand eased the ring over the fourth finger of her left hand. She held the

other fingers away. He dropped the tongs and pushed the ring down. As the metal touched the

knuckle she stiffened, teeth gritted, eyes bulging. He forced it down further, to the base of her finger

and, as he released her, the scream came. It was hideous, a howl from deep inside her. She stared at

her left hand, stretched out from her body, grabbed the forearm with her right hand and turned

wildly to face the mass of the soldiers. The girl sobbed and made for Catherine, but Ligarius stopped

her, cuffing her with the back of his hand. Catherine fell to her knees, using her right hand to hold

her left hand, her mouth wide open, shrieking, breasts heaving, until finally, by some mercy, she fell

unconscious.

*

They?d carried her to her cell, unconscious, and bound her to the corners of the pallet so when she

came round she was stretched out in an X-shape. Miriam was there as well, kneeling terrified,

clutching the cross. Catherine looked up at her left hand. The ring was still there, the finger swollen

an ugly purple. She glanced around at the soldiers packed into the cell and her head fell back. She

clearly knew what was coming.

?So, your wedding night,? Ligarius mocked. He took the cross from the girl and lay it on Catherine so

the long pole rested between her breasts, the figure on her lips. ?Lick him,? he said. Catherine stared


at the ceiling. Ligarius seized the girl by the hair and hauled her up. As her hands went to her hair, he

yanked at her rags, sipping them off so she stood naked. She was thin, with perky, small breasts.

?Shall I have her flogged?? Ligarius said, shoving her towards the door where she fell at the feet of a

crowd of soldiers.

Catherine bit her lip and then licked the metal figure. ?Again,? Ligarius said. ?He?s your husband.

Show him a good time.?

She licked again and again. Ligarius shoved the head into her mouth. ?Fellate him,? he said. ?Make

him feel good.? She took the metal head between her lips. The soldiers laughed, joking about her

technique. Lucius could see the muscles in her jaw tightening. On and on she took the head into her

mouth, pushed it out, ran her tongue around it. Finally, Ligarius pulled the cross away. ?I think he?s

ready to penetrate you now,? he said.

She pushed her head back, arching her neck. Lucius could see defiance in her eyes, but the gesture

served to thrust her breasts up, prompting more laughter. Ligarius looked at Miriam. ?Sit on her

belly and open her flaps,? he said and the girl, terrified, hastened to obey. She skipped over,

mouthed, ?I?m sorry,? and crouched over her, a foot either side of her waist, buttocks just an inch of

two above Catherine?s belly. Ligarius held the cross towards her. Miriam put a hand to each of

Catherine?s lips and pulled them apart. With her left hand she held them open, and with her right

she took the end of the cross and inserted it. ?Heel,? Ligarius snapped and the girl ran to kneel

beside him.

He pushed the cross. Catherine grunted. He thrust and she shouted in pain, her teeth gritted.

Ligarius withdrew a little and thrust again. Her fists clenched and Lucius saw a dribble of blood drip

from her cunt. Was she really a virgin? It seemed she was. What a waste. Ligarius thrust in and out,

the crossbar preventing him shoving too far. The blood became thicker, coating the top of the cross.

She shouted in pain. On and on he fucked her with it, her grunts of anguish becoming increasingly

frequent and increasingly loud. ?Are you ready to climax?? Ligarius asked. ?Orgasm close?? There

was laughter and more taunts until Ligarius finally stopped. He handed the blood-soaked cross to

Miriam. ?Now how about a real man?? he said. ?Your first affair.?

Ligarius hitched up his tunic and settled on top of her. The other soldiers lined up, watching idly as

Ligarius fucked her. She had her eyes tight shut, as though trying to pretend this wasn?t happening.

Ligarius finished quickly and lifted himself. He shuffled over to Miriam. ?Clean it,? he ordered. She

looked startled, then realised with horror what he meant. She obeyed, though, taking his penis in

her mouth and licking off the semen and blood. ?Good girl,? he said. The second solider, pale

buttocks wobbling, was already on top of Catherine.


Lucius was sixth in line. He rarely joined in the rapes but, well, this was different. He knew even then

she was the most beautiful woman he would ever fuck, but it was more than that. For all of them,

this was a once in a lifetime chance to fuck a noble, to find out how soft their skin was, what it was

like to get inside their aristocratic cunts. When the fifth soldier finished, he edged forward, already

erect, but Ligarius stopped him. He grabbed Miriam by the hair and shoved her forward. ?Clean out

her cunt,? he said. The girl looked appalled but she was too terrified to resist. She dropped her head

between Catherine?s legs and licked. When she lifted her face, she was sobbing and her mouth was

surrounded by semen. She retched, the apologised. ?Get her some water,? Ligarius shouted.

Lucius stepped forward. He lay down on Catherine, running his hands over those magnificent tits. He

stroked and kneaded, then kissed her plump red lips. She kept her teeth gritted so he couldn?t push

his tongue in, but even licking her smooth incisors was heaven. ?Come on,? somebody shouted.

?There?s no time for foreplay.? Lucius wanted to take his time, though. This was a dream. He placed

his face between her breasts, feeling their warmth and softness on either side, then he took her

right nipple in his mouth, sucking and teasing, biting it gently. Only then did he enter her, keeping his

hands on her tits as he thrust into her, his fingers digging deep as he came far too quickly. Slowly,

reluctantly, he eased himself off her. Almost immediately, Miriam was there, her rapid small tongue

working over his penis until it was clean. He walked away, feeling oddly deflated.

Lucius left her cell, passing the line of soldiers merrily waiting their turn. He felt a little disgusted.

She was a beautiful woman, a hugely impressive, charismatic, intelligent figure, somebody who

deserved better than that. Torture, perhaps, was fair enough, punishment for her Christianity, but

mass rape was about soldiers taking out on her their frustrations, punishing her for being a rich and

gorgeous woman. Even the beatings and the spiked wheel troubled him, though. Not in themselves

but in her reaction to them. How had she been so calm? How had she recovered so quickly? He

wondered whether there might be something in Christianity after all.

*

It was about an hour and a half later when curiosity forced Lucius back. He?d had a couple of goblets

of wine and tried to clear his head but in the end his desire to fuck her again had got the better of

him. There was no queue when he got back, just a crowd of a couple of dozen soldiers clustered

around the pallet. It was Miriam who was bound there now, though, face grey and traumatised as

Marcellus pounded up and down on top of her. Catherine knelt by Ligarius. Even in the flickering

light of the two brands that lit the room Lucius could see the bruising around her thighs and breasts.

As Marcellus finished, she opened her mouth obediently. Lucius wondered for a moment why she

had given in, but then he saw two ugly welts on Miriam?s ribs. They?d whipped her and Catherine

had given in to protect her.


?Are well all done?? Ligarius asked. When he got no answer he ordered the soldiers to unfasten

Miriam.

?Your turn again,? he said to Catherine. This time, they tied her face down. Lucius saw Miriam had

taken perhaps 10 strokes of the cane across her skinny back.

Ligarius went first, prizing Catherine?s buttocks apart before plunging in. Her distress this time was

clear as she shrieked with each thrust. Then it was Lucius?s turn as Miriam was again forced to lick

Ligarius clean. Her buttocks were full and round, the odd pale scar showing from her floggings. He

slid in, Ligarius?s efforts having made his entry easier, and then slid his hands under her body to cup

her breasts once again. She begged him to stop but once he was inside her there was no way that

was going to happen. She shrieked as he thrust inside her, burying his face in her lustrous hair. He

lasted longer this time, but it was still over too quickly and before he knew it he was being sucked

clean by Miriam as another solider took his place on Catherine.

What had he done? What if she was right? What if Christianity was true? Her capacity to soak up

abuse was astonishing; something was giving her that strength. He left the cell and went and washed

himself.

*

The fort was alive that morning. It was bright and sunny, not overly hot. The guard-room had been

packed. Everybody was there to see the execution, even those who were off-duty. The yard had

been prepared, the sand raked, the scourges unpicked of the dried flesh of previous victims and

oiled for maximum flexibility. The sword with which she?d be beheaded had been sharpened, a new

block installed. Gaius, who was around only rarely, had been prancing about, practising the stroke

with which he?d kill her. There was also, for reasons Lucius didn?t understand, a brazier glowing

about five yards in front of the block, stocked with half a dozen brands. The soldiers stood in neat

rows, the centurion sat at his table. On the balcony high above, the emperor looked down.

A little after dawn, she was brought out. Somebody had found her deep red robe and draped it

around her. It hung loose, so her left leg and right shoulder could be seen as she was led into the

yard. Her wrists had been chained behind her and a soldier held each arm. She looked exhausted as

they shoved her in front of them. Lucius walked behind, part of a party of ten soldiers who escorted

her to face the centurion. Her left leg was almost entirely bare, and he found it hard to tear his eyes

from the base of her left buttock. He could also see the finger, swollen purple around the ring.

She was hustled in front of the centurion, who stared at her from his position behind the table.

There was a moment of silent calm in the yard. ?You have been sentenced to be scourged and


beheaded,? he said. He looked at Lucius. ?Strip her,? he said. Lucius stepped forward. He didn?t know

why he?d been selected for this honour. He strode round in front of her, seeing the flagrums on the

table. He paused and lifted her chin with his right hand. Her dark eyes fixed on him. He saw sadness

but no fear. His hands went to her shoulders. Beneath his left hand he felt her warm smooth skin

and he was transported back to raping her the night before. She nodded slightly at him. ?I forgive

you,? she said. He started and then, his left hand dropping to her chest, yanked at the cloth. It fell

away and she was naked for the final time. He stared at those magnificent breasts, at the bruising

around them, and then at the dark swelling around her cunt. What had they done?

He lay the robe on the table. Marcus stepped up and selected a flagrum. He weighed it in his hand

and then, laughing, dangled it in front of her face. ?Ready for this, my lady?? he asked, then turned

and crashed it down where there robe lay on the table. Lucius flinched as the hooks that tipped each

of the six strands embedded themselves in the table. Marcus, with some difficulty, wrenched the

whip free. He held up the robe. There were six clear holes where the hooks had bitten, but also

dozens of smaller tears where the shards of glass and bone that were dotted along the length of

each strand had ripped through the fine wool.

My Date With Catherine

It is difficult to try to recall how I felt about Catherine, sometimes I would feel ashamed of my feelings, after all she was more than twice my age, yet I guess I looked forward to seeing her for some reason. I had begun to enjoy her company and our times together, as well as liking her for her generous tips when I waited on her. Now we had this date for the pictures, and I admit I was beginning to believe she was queer. As I said I'd had a bad experience that caused me to move from one part...

Chorley slut Catherine

So, I want to tell you all about a woman I met while on a business trip to Chorley. Her name was Catherine, and what a slut she was, well is. I had finished my business meeting and stopped at Costa to finish my paperwork and do a few emails. I was sitting at a table for six people and was fairly spread out. I noticed a woman with her tray and looking for somewhere to sit. I collected my papers and offered a place to her at the other end of the table. She sat down and took her coat off. It was...

My Sexy Principal Catherine

I was 19 years old, studying in a college close to my home in Hyderabad. Our principal’s name was Catherine and she was 43 years old. She has a slim body, sexy boobs, and a tight ass. She looks like an angel, but she’s a devil in human form! Our principal used to teach us Biology. Not only the subject was tough, she was very strict. Everyone hated her. She used to punish everyone for the silliest reasons. One day, I smashed a guy’s nose because he tried to kiss a girl from my class forcefully....

Curious Catherine

Jorea is based on the country of Korea and the hanbok is the traditional dress of Korean women. Please visit ?Tales of the Veils? for images of the outfits in this story. ThanksPart 1To Irene,It happened 3 days into the trip. I always thought Jin’s family was very liberal. I mean I didn’t have to wear the traditional women's hanbok, I didn’t have to bow every time I see a male of the house, and perhaps most importantly I didn’t have to wear the rigid mutemask when I leave the house.

Antheas baby 1

“What’s wrong? What’s wrong?”Anthea looked up at her mum as she sat down at the dining table. “Nothing is wrong,” Anthea responded watching as her mum hurriedly dried her hands with a tea towel.“Is the baby okay? Are you okay? Is Jack okay?” she asked as her husband came into the room and pulled up a seat at the table.“We’re all fine Mum,” she responded exasperated with her mum’s anxiety. “I have something to tell you.”“Sit down Helen,” her dad snapped. “Give the lass a chance to speak.”Anthea...

Uther

Uther By Ellie Dauber (c) 2006 Introduction According to the legends of King Arthur, Merlin changed Uther Pendragon into a double for Duke Gorlois, so he could spend the night with Ygraine, the Duke's wife. Ygraine and Gorlois had three daughters: Elaine, Morgause, and Morgan le Faye. During their time together, Ygraine became pregnant with the child who was to become King Arthur. Uther's men killed Gorlois that same night. This is my TG (of course) version of what...

Carruthers Bride

The the wind howled around the quayside as I stepped onto terra firma for the first time in weeks, the wind threw sharp shards of ice to sting our faces as we looked up at the sails as they were finally furled and stowed as our captain grinned at our discomfiture, "Au revoir!" he joked as if he knew we should soon be recalled. Those such as were left, and we were few enough, I shuddered. My best uniform packed securely in my Valise, awaited me, and just a few more duties before I...

Motherless Vintage

Do you know of the porn site Motherless.com? You should. I’ve reviewed it a few times on my site, The Porn Dude, although it was for different genres every time. This time around, I’m going back to this place and looking at a specific and niche little category many of you are just begging me to cover. We’re looking at vintage porn today. While it doesn’t have the same resolution and quality as the porn you can find today, it’s definitely a genre of porn that has a lot of personality to it and...

Althea

I should have known better. I should have remembered that old saying, "If it looks too good to be true, it is." I was in love. She was damned near all I thought about with the exception of my studies and it didn't make sense to me. I prided myself on my intellect and my ability to think logically, but there wasn't anything logical about the way I felt about Althea. She was beautiful, smart and very popular and I was not.

Motherless. A one-word website title that says everything it needs to say. This is a site where the rules are, more or less, completely thrown out the window, morality means absolutely nothing, and there is nobody to save you from it. Hedonism is God here.The site likely is also called this due to the fact that the girls who end up on motherless.com likely have no positive female influence in their lives to keep them from it. Motherless is the place parents spend their whole lives fearing that...

Motherless Amateur

I always considered Motherless the “4chan” of porn. Not only because Motherless was somewhat popularized there, but because Motherless also encourages users to share their own content in a very open way. This means minimal bullshit like moderation and censorship, and a strong “anything goes” attitude that leads to free and extreme content. It encourages people to create and upload their own homegrown content, like videos of their girlfriend pissing or spycam videos of their cousin....

Perhaps it is the fact that there is an astronomical amount of pornography just waiting for a dumb fuck like you to beat off to! I really don’t know, and frankly, I’m not going to pretend that I do.But what I do know is that if you love BBWs, the Motherless.com homepage will not be of much use! Preferably, head on over...

I browsed the horror stash at Motherless all morning, and now I don’t know if I should jack off or go hide in the closet until the danger has passed. Then again, hiding out might give me the perfect opportunity to rub one out in the peace and safety of the dark. Who knows who—or what—might be peeping in the windows with nefarious intent if I sit at my desk and shake my dick at the screen. Just like when I masturbate at the local Starbucks, I’ve got to be sure to balance the potential pleasure...

The rays of light cascade through the panes as the morning comes into view. I sit staring; smoking a cigarette in the early dawn of Saturday. My cup of coffee stares at me. I find it harder to get started without it these days. Abby, our dog, lies at my feet, her cold nose nudging against my foot, beckoning me for attention. I slowly get up and...

Motherless Incest

Incest porn has been a staple of pornography since the very first incel caveman realized that he couldn’t find fresh pussy out and about. He resorted to sniffing a whiff of his mother’s loincloth when she wasn’t looking, and beating his old cave meat into a leather sock.Now personally I’m not into the whole mommy-son dynamic – I’m a classy guy. But it’s no secret people like to get freaky when the lights go out, and if you’ve got a stiffy in your hand and you’re on Motherless, you gotta go...

He had that look and a glance at his crotch confirmed it. The imprint of his cock was prominent as it pushed against the material. “Looks like everyone is gone.” Floyd said.

I’m talking about desperate chicks fucking anything that resembles a dick and crazy bitches literally eating shit. When you’re done fapping to the weird vids, you can even find "normal" porno to pass the time....

I’m not saying anything controversial when I say men love seeing women naked. It’s a fact of life as fundamental as gravity. It’s a force of nature that cannot be stopped by beast, man, or God. It’s an eternal truth and a divine mandate. As sure as the sun will rise, men will attempt to view as many women naked as they possibly can. Any man not doing so is either a sad or a gay one.This means that any woman a man sees regularly is mentally stripped down during every interaction. If any women...

‘To me it’s not really a green. When I think green, I think of grass. That’s more like lemonade color.’ Erica’s nose was far too close to the glasses for my taste.

I wished I had my full setup here like I have at home, my Absinthe fountains water drippers are missed when I began to try and slowly pour water over the sugar cube. ‘Don’t you light it on fire?’ she...
