Hello fellow readers!! It's time for another round of flash fiction for the Deadline Dames! The picture below is the prompt for this month's contest. Interesting isn't it. I could immediately feel the abandonment of this place, the emptiness of long forgotten times. If you'd like to check out the Dames site or contest, click here.
This is what I've come up so far.
Brimstone
I slowly woke with my head thick and cottony from a drug induced sleep; trying to stretch and finding I was bound and blind.
Where the hell am I and how did I get here? The floor where I found myself was tacky like old wax.
The panic I'd been suppressing raised it's ugly head; my breathing became rapid, heart pounding as I began to work my bonds.
“Struggle if you must.” I heard a dark voice call cordially. “It will do you little good.” The voice laughed heartily.
“Please, you don't have to do this, tell me what you want.” I begged becoming claustrophobic in the blindfolded darkness.
“All in good time.” The voice boomed happily, enjoying my anxiety.
I screamed piercingly; now I could smell the brimstone of hellfire. I knew where I was; realized my captor. How was I found?
“I will never submit. Let me go!” I yelled, working my bonds; hoping for freedom.
I felt a fiery breath brush my cheek. “Lucy, love, why would I do that?”
My body filled with dread and desire as the demon lips caressed my cheek, easing down my neck, and lingering at the hollow between neck and shoulder; his tongue licking almost lovingly, remembering my taste.
I screamed again this time in frustration and with arousal; I would not become the demon's servant, bound and cursed.
Okay, this is what I have so far. I'm right at my word limit with 245 words. Not sure if it will be my entry or not.
