The fluorescent lights of B401 hummed with a steady, indifferent drone as Abby and Yin Suwan stepped through the shimmering threshold of the time-space gap room. The air thickened with the scent of vanilla and antiseptic, a cruel parody of home. Su Yucang and Lin Ruojian knelt side by side on the cold marble floor, their heads bowed low, foreheads almost touching the polished stone.
"Welcome," they murmured in unison, their voices barely above a whisper, yet carrying the weight of their shared submission.
Abby's heels clicked against the floor as she circled them, her shadow passing over their trembling forms. Yin Suwan stood by the door, arms crossed, her gaze clinical and detached.
"You may rise," Abby said, her voice smooth as silk but edged with iron. "Lin Ruojian, come here."
Lin Ruojian lifted her head, her eyes meeting Abby's for a fleeting moment before she pushed herself to her feet. Her knees ached from the kneeling, but she welcomed the pain. It grounded her. Su Yucang remained on the floor, her hands clenched into fists at her sides, her jaw tight.
"Strip," Abby ordered, gesturing toward a low bench in the center of the room. "Bind your own hands with the rope on the table."
Lin Ruojian obeyed without hesitation. She unbuttoned her blouse with steady fingers, letting it fall to the floor, then stepped out of her skirt and panties. The air kissed her bare skin, raising goosebumps. She picked up the coarse hemp rope from the table and wound it around her wrists, pulling the knots tight until the fibers bit into her flesh.
Su Yucang watched from her kneeling position, her heart clenching with a familiar ache. She wanted to look away, to shield her eyes from the sight of her beloved binding herself for another's pleasure. But she forced herself to watch. This was their penance. Their choice.
Lin Ruojian knelt on the bench, her bound hands resting on her thighs, and opened her mouth.
Abby approached, her dildo already slick and ready. She didn't speak, didn't offer any comfort. She simply pressed the tip against Lin Ruojian's lips and thrust forward. Lin Ruojian gagged but didn't pull away. She swallowed, her throat working to accommodate the intrusion, her eyes watering.
Meanwhile, Yin Suwan moved toward Su Yucang. "Stand," she said, her voice flat.
Su Yucang rose, her legs unsteady. Yin Suwan grabbed her wrists and tied them together with a leather strap, then secured the strap to a hook on the ceiling, forcing Su Yucang to stretch her arms above her head.
"Spread your legs," Yin Suwan said, slapping Su Yucang's thigh with the dildo she held. The plastic made a sharp sound against her skin.
Su Yucang obeyed, widening her stance. Yin Suwan slapped her again, this time across her face. The sting brought tears to her eyes, but she didn't flinch.
"You're going to watch," Yin Suwan said, her voice low and cruel. "Watch while your precious Lin Ruojian services Abby. And then you're going to taste what she's earned."
Yin Suwan circled behind Su Yucang and brought the dildo down hard on her bare buttocks. The impact echoed in the room. Su Yucang gasped but stayed silent, her eyes fixed on Lin Ruojian, who was now bobbing her head in a steady rhythm, her tongue working against Abby's shaft.
Abby's breathing quickened. She grabbed the back of Lin Ruojian's head and thrust deeper, holding her there for a long moment before pulling out. A condom, now filled with thick semen, dangled from the dildo's tip. Abby untied it and held it up, the cloudy fluid sloshing inside.
"Open," she said to Lin Ruojian.
Lin Ruojian opened her mouth, and Abby squeezed the contents into her mouth. Lin Ruojian swallowed, her eyes closing, a faint tremor running through her body. She licked her lips, savoring the bitter taste.
Yin Suwan laughed. "She likes it, doesn't she?"
Su Yucang's stomach churned. She watched Lin Ruojian's serene expression, the way she seemed almost at peace, and felt a wave of nausea mixed with a strange, twisted jealousy.
Yin Suwan didn't wait. She slammed into Su Yucang from behind, the dildo tearing into her cunt without warning. Su Yucang screamed, her body arching against the restraints. Yin Suwan fucked her hard, each thrust punctuated by a slap on her ass or her thighs, her words dripping with mockery.
"Look at you," Yin Suwan hissed. "So proud. So cold. But your cunt is soaking wet. You love this, don't you?"
Su Yucang shook her head, tears streaming down her face. "No... no..."
"Liar." Yin Suwan pulled out and shoved Su Yucang to her knees. She stripped off the condom, now heavy with her own cum, and held it to Su Yucang's lips. "Open."
Su Yucang clamped her mouth shut, shaking her head violently. The smell of latex and semen filled her nostrils. She couldn't. She wouldn't.
Yin Suwan grabbed her jaw and forced it open, squeezing the condom so that the semen splashed onto Su Yucang's tongue. "Swallow," she commanded.
Su Yucang gagged, her body convulsing. She couldn't do it. The taste was unbearable, thick and salty and wrong. She spat, and the cum dribbled down her chin.
Yin Suwan's face darkened. She raised her hand to strike, but a soft voice stopped her.
"Let me."
Lin Ruojian crawled over, still bound, her mouth still wet with Abby's cum. She pressed her lips to Su Yucang's, licking the semen from her skin, then kissed her deeply, transferring the taste into her own mouth. She swallowed, her throat moving.
"I'll take it," Lin Ruojian whispered. "Always."
Su Yucang sobbed, her forehead resting against Lin Ruojian's. "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry..."
Abby pulled out a magic pen and uncapped it. "Let's finish this."
She wrote a sigil on Lin Ruojian's chest, just above her heart, a series of delicate runes that glowed briefly before sinking into her skin. "Summoning word: 'Pleasure,'" Abby said, her tone matter-of-fact. "It will appear whenever you hear it, no matter where you are."
Yin Suwan knelt beside Su Yucang and drew a similar sigil on her inner thigh, the runes curling in a tight spiral. "Summoning word: 'Pain.'"
The pen clicked as Yin Suwan recapped it. "Good. You may rest now."
The two trainers turned and walked toward the door, their footsteps fading. The time-space gap shimmered behind them, closing with a soft whisper.
Lin Ruojian and Su Yucang remained on the floor, tangled in each other's arms. The room was silent except for the hum of the lights and the sound of their breathing.
"Xiao Xi," Lin Ruojian said hoarsely. "Shower. Warm. Please."
The smart system chimed. "Shower prepared. Rest time: four hours."
They rose together, limbs heavy and hearts raw. In the bathroom, the water ran hot and steady, washing away the sweat, the tears, the taste. They scrubbed each other's backs in silence, not needing words.
Later, wrapped in soft robes, they lay on the bed in the changing room. Su Yucang traced the faint outline of the hidden sigil on Lin Ruojian's chest, her fingers trembling.
"I hate that I can't take it for you," she whispered.
Lin Ruojian caught her hand and pressed it to her lips. "You take enough. You take all of me. That's more than anyone could ever ask."
Su Yucang's eyes welled up again. She pulled Lin Ruojian close, burying her face in her hair.
"Rest now," Lin Ruojian murmured, her voice thick with exhaustion. "There will be others tomorrow."
Su Yucang nodded, her breaths slowing. They held each other in the dim light, two broken women clinging to the only thing that made the pain bearable—each other.
