Lily's simple life turned worst when she found herself captive by an unknown man wanting to make her the main subject of his film. The next thing she knew, she was giving herself to Sebastian Hamilton due to the twisted orders of the psycho artist. Fearing for their own safety, they gave in. Luckily, the two of them survived and moved on with their lives. More than a month later, Lily became pregnant. From her brother, she had learned that the Hamiltons wanted to take responsibility for the child as Sebastian was left infertile after that night and could no longer father another child. She also found out that Sebastian was also in love with someone else. Hence, a contract was created. But things became complicated in the middle of their pretensions.
"Strip!"
The single word uttered by the stranger generated a deep sense of dread down the young woman's spine. The way the man stared at her made her think this man has no emotions, much less remorse.
"S-strip? Y-you want me to strip? " she asked. Hesitation could be heard in her voice.
The man exploded in anger. He violently dropped his gun on top of the table and tugged his hair. The woman could see the large mark of a dragon on his arm while he was whispering something in the air that only he could understand.
"Dammit, stupid fucks! Why the fuck are my actors so stupid?! " he said in anger.
After a few moments, the man picked up the gun again and violently aimed it at the trembling girl's head. "Maybe I should just kill you, and then I could look for another one? What do you think?"
"No! Please, I will do whatever you want. Just don't kill me! " pleaded the woman. Tears were rapidly flowing on her face out of sheer fear. The man's expression softened slightly and eventually allowed the poor victim to remove the only protective clothing she had from the cold, dark night.
A few hours ago, Lily Smith was living her life to the fullest. It had been two years since she graduated college and aspired to become a successful film actress someday. How happy she was when finally, she was invited for an audition by a popular production company in Scarlet City. She was one step closer to reaching stardom when the casting agent shortlisted her for the lead role.
And then, this shit happened.
She didn't know where and how she got to that hell. The last thing she remembered, she was waiting for a cab after the audition when someone grabbed her from behind. The next thing she knew, she was losing consciousness because of the pungent smell she was forced to inhale through a handkerchief. When she woke up, the rugged face of this man welcomed her in a seemingly abandoned warehouse in god knows where.
She hugged herself trying to hide her naked body. Lily was evidently distressed. The young woman knew that everyone was destined to die. This was the reality of life that everyone had to go through. She wasn't expecting something like this when she woke up this morning. She's only twenty-two years old! If she only knew that this would be his end, she would have just stayed at home to be with her brother. She would not have bothered chasing her dream.
"What are you going to do to me?" she boldly asked her abductor. She didn't know if getting an answer would give her the peace she desperately needed or perhaps she hoped that whatever she was thinking would be contrary to what the kidnapper wanted from her.
The man answered him with a sarcastic smirk. After a few moments, his demonic laughter echoed. Lily closed her eyes. Her suspicion seemed to be right.
"Me? I won't do anything to you. But him? He will definitely be doing something." The woman's gaze turned in the direction her captor's mouth indicated. In one of the corners, the bulk of a man could be seen.
Did he kidnap another person? Why? she softly asked herself.
The darkness in the room made it impossible for the girl to see his face. Perhaps because of the situation surrounding their predicament, she no longer became observant of the things around her. What she did not know was that the following events would shock her.
"Alright, the casts are complete. It's showtime, baby! " Lily frowned at what she heard. There was a look of astonishment flashed on her face. What was he talking about?
She saw her captor dragging the other victim from the corner where he was. He was gaged but was obviously saying something based on the growl coming from him. When the piece of clothing was taken out of his mouth, the other abductee's voice echoed around.
"Just tell me how much you need! ten million? One hundred million? I am willing to give you money regardless of how much it would be!"
"You fucking asshole!" the kidnapper shouted in rage. "How many times do I have to tell you that I don't need your money! I am a student of art! I am a director and not a terrorist! " he emphatically explained. Then, he violently threw the struggling young man onto the small bed that was on the side.
The girl looked around the room where they were being held. There was a small bed on the side...and a DSLR camera was now being held by the kidnapper. What if?
"You!" he looked at the woman, and said, "Come closer to your leading man and we're about to start."
"W-what?"
"I said, get closer to your leading man! So we can fucking start!." He gave her an animal-like grin. She cried out in distress when she finally realized what he wanted to do.
Her hunch was right, he planned them to be the star in his own twisted version of sexual art!
"None of you will fucking move? Fuck! Do you want me to blow your skulls off? For fuck's sake, woman! Use your fucking brain! Do I have to spell it out for you?! I told you to go to your fucking leading man!"
Trembling, the girl stepped beside the man who averted his gaze. Perhaps, he felt a little embarrassed because her naked body was exposed to him.
"On my queue, we will go straight to the main event. Make sure that you will give your best performance 'cause I don't have much time to shoot this on multiple takes. Got that?"
No one dared to move. It was like they were processing what the demon wanted them to do. But when the demon cocked the gun in front of them, the two victims flinched. Under the dim light, Lily saw the other man's reflection.
She saw his almond-shaped eyes glimmer. He had a defined jawline brought by his square face and an aquiline nose. In hindsight, he bears a resemblance to the Italian actor Michelle Moronne and a certain Turkish actor she couldn't name.
"What, you stupid fuckers?! Will you start fucking or will I be the one to fucking shoot you?" He seemed to run out of patience.
The captive man swallowed and said, "I am sorry to tell you this, Miss, but I was left without a choice." He then took Lily in his arms and he kissed her lips.
The girl did not think that her first kiss would be from a stranger. She had been so careful when it came to the opposite sex. She never had a boyfriend at her age.
She wanted to give herself to the man that she could stay with for the rest of her life. Her dream was to remain pure and untouched upon presenting herself in her white, bridal gown in front of the altar. But now? A sob broke from her closed lips when she realized her ultimate dream was shattered.
All because of the man behind the camera.
Cut! Cut! " their captor started shouting. "YOU FUCKING CUNT! You don't even show any emotion on your fucking face! I give up! I fucking give up!"
In a rage, the man violently grabbed the gun from the table. He fired his gun, and the loud sound of the gunfire echoed the entire room.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Lily shouted in fear. She was shocked, hungry, tired, and scared! She no longer knew what she was feeling. The hatred on the kidnapper's face was obvious. It looked as if smoke was coming out of his nose because of his anger.
God, have mercy. Are they going to die?
The girl whimpered in fear when she saw the young man walking toward their captor. She frowned at him, it looks like he was trying to appease the man who made them both miserable.
What is he doing? Why is he even trying to talk to the madman? Is he out of his mind? These were the questions that were running on the young woman's mind.
"I'm sorry, director. You have to pardon my co-actor. Maybe she was just scared. Let me talk to her for a second, and I will assure you. We will give you the performance of our lives! "
"This is your last chance, son. If you will not be doing a fucking good job on this performance, I will fucking shoot you," and he looked at the woman, "and her. And then I'm just going to look for a replacement instead of this frigid bitch." He gave the woman another bad look, "Just five minutes. Then, we will film again."
The young man bowed and thanked. Then, he walked to where the girl was, quietly watching their conversation.
"Sebastian Hamilton," he extended his right hand to formally introduce himself to the confused woman. "And you are?"
"Lily Smith," she weakly replied.
"Is this your first time?"
Lily's eyes widened at Sebastian's question. Hesitantly, she nodded.
"Look, I know that this is not the setup you imagined your first time to be. But we don't have any choice. If we want to live, we need to follow this demon."
The young woman did her best to savor his every word. What he was telling her was true, even if it hurts they couldn't do anything about their situation.
"I would have to apologize in advance, Miss Smith. But rest assured that I will make this experience less horrible for you. I'll make sure to be gentle and considerate of your feelings. Let's get on with this so we can go back to our loved ones and move on with our lives, okay?"
His voice was full of sincerity. From the way he spoke, it would appear that he came from a wealthy family. It sounded like he had accepted the fact that no one could help them change their fate.
The young woman was about to give her most prized possession to someone she had only met a few minutes ago.
To a man named Sebastian Hamilton. Even though it was the first time they have met, and got to know each other, the woman felt that she was in good hands. And at least, it wasn't their captor that will defile her.
In the end, Lily blindly agreed to what was about to happen. A soft 'thank you" came out of Sebastian's mouth before he loudly said, "Director, we are ready!"
"Thank FUCK! That's what I'm saying! Let's get it on! Ready, everyone! Lights, camera, ACTION!"
Once he gave the signal, Sebastian began to claim Lily's lips once more. This time, she kissed him back. The young man paused, in his kisses. His eyes were full of questions and tenderness as he gauged her reaction.
She gently cupped his cheeks as if indirectly telling him that she was okay. That he can proceed with whatever he was supposed to be doing. Not because he wanted to but because he needed to.
They need to fuck each other in front of this vile man's content in order to see another light of day.
Lily put Sebastian's hand on her chest. She knew that he desired her, for the way he had kissed her was becoming different. Something must have happened, because the next time his lips met hers, it was more intense, more demanding.
She raised her hand and caressed the young man's hair as their kiss became more passionate. She was not an expert, but she was not completely innocent. His periodic viewing of porn in high school with his reprimanding friends helped. Somehow, she had an idea of how she should respond.
"FUCK! That's what I fucking want! Damn! Look at that! You should fucking see what you both look like!" The director seemed to enjoy the scene playing in front of his camera. "That's right! Touch her there! RIght! Oh, fuck! Damn, that looks good!"
Lily closed her mind so she could not hear the animal's voice. She focused on the sensation Sebastian was giving her.
She was responding to his every touch. It was like electricity was flowing through her core. It wasn't hard to act aroused especially with the way Sebastian was touching her naked body.
This was the most important role she had ever played. If she would not give her best, the demon might have another episode of wrath and both of them would no longer live to see another day.
The things that her body had endured were too much to back out of now. All she could do was go with the flow.
The young man slowly laid her down. The climax was fast approaching. She felt his hardness. His desire was evident as his shaft touched her thigh. However, she dared not to look at it.
"I'm sorry for this, Lily. I really do."
That was it. She felt that something inside her had torn apart. She felt a mixture of aches and pain. It was no joke that your first night really hurts. But nothing could have been more painful than the fact that her first night which should have been a good memory turned out to be a nightmare that she would never forget.
With each inward thrust, the young man repeatedly apologized. Eventually, she just allowed herself to be taken by the wave of passion that swept through her. With a few more thrusts and they reached the peak of their desire. They could only hope that the performance was enough to satisfy this lunatic.
Because if there was still a retake, Lily didn't know if she could handle it. One taste of this hell was enough.
They were both panting and sweating profusely when the deed was over. Sebastian took off his top and wrapped it around the still-shaking girl. He gave her a fleeting smile. Finally, they have finished the film that would set them both free.
"Bravo, bravo! Magnificent! Very good!" cried the mad director. He was like a child that was given a gift, for he was jumping up and down at what he had just accomplished.
"And now for the finale!"
The madman swiftly walked to them. He grabbed Sebastian and then violently kicked in between his groins. One, two, three times. Sebastian almost lost his strength. He also vomited due to severe pain and dizziness.
He was a mess.
The girl did nothing but watch the young man gradually killed by the kidnapper. He took the gun and pointed it at the whimpering man.
Lily closed her eyes. It's definitely the end and she's next!
She heard several gunshots before she completely lost consciousness.
