Acknowledgements

This was loosely inspired by "the Circle" (a reality show where the contestants were locked into private apartments to bicker between themselves without meeting) and "Insiders" a Spanish reality show that gaslit the hell out of the contestants - they were told they were being judged to complete in the show itself, that large chunks weren't being recorded when they were, and were shown psychological profiles of themselves and told to change certain aspects of themselves (like "be more aggressive" or "someone else keeps talking over you, stop letting them do that") if they wanted to get onto the show.  Very creepy and manipulative, and the hostess did look good in leather!

 

 

Introducing the Host and Cast

Persephone straightened her back, checking how she looked on the screen as the countdown started. Tight leather trousers, a black bandeau over her breasts beneath a leather suit jacket, her black hair in a ragged bob, the mic wire around her bare neck making her feel slightly uncomfortable. Working a room was one thing, getting everyone talking, helping conversations along, but a broadcast to an empty room was a whole different matter!

The countdown above the camera hit "0", the red light turning to green, a spotlight clicking on from above to highlight her as the rest of the room vanished into darkness. She leaned back against the metal desk, the thing absorbing heat from her hands, making herself seem at ease, before staring into the camera and smiling. There was a screen behind the camera letting her see what it was showing, so at least she knew the angle she was stood at showing her breasts off well.

'Good evening, everyone! Or whatever it might be for you, and welcome to the first episode of the Begging Chair! For those of you that don't know me, I have organised this little entertainment, and overseen the recruitment of our six lovely stars... or perhaps victims might be a better phrase? I'm Persephone von Brimstone, and I will be your host for this. Of course, I'm not alone, and there will be other hosts as we go. And, if it's popular enough, maybe even some more guests? But I'm sure you want to see the stars, so let's get started.' The wire of the microphone seemed far too heavy around her neck, pressing against her skin, making her want to twitch and shake it off, but she managed to control herself, wanting to seem calm and controlled.

'Helping me with the introduction is one of the most renowned feelers of flesh, who has groped and fucked his way around most of the world - if you've been to any of the UK's clubs, you've probably met him.' She pointed into the darkness as another spotlight flashed on, illuminating a comfortable leather-cushioned chair - where had he gotten that from? She certainly hadn't requested it! Sat there was a bulky, male figure, wearing a bright red suit jacket and a cummerbund, like an old-fashioned circus ring-master, his head shrouded beneath a boar's head mask.

'Good evening, Persephone. Do you mind if I call you Sephy?'

'Yes, I do.' The man was a creep, no matter his stamina, prodigious cock-size or undoubted technique! 'The first of our guests might already be known to those of you that enjoy a bit of fighting.'

A screen to her side blinked on, the same video hopefully getting relayed to the audience, and also being shown on a screen by the autocue. It showed a young women dressed for sport, in tight shorts and a tank-top, showing off taut abs and a lean body, with gloves on her fists and a padded helmet, her feet wrapped. She blocked a punch before countering, grabbing her opponent then pivoting them over her hip to put them on the ground, then cut to show her going through an exercise routine, her honed body shining with sweat.

'So, Ruttles, your opinion?'

He harrumphed from behind his mask. 'I prefer my women a little softer! She's certainly to some people's tastes, but I'm not a fan of such things. Women should be more obedient, and not quite so... hard.'

'Well, she's certainly strong and tough! I wonder how much punishment she can take? Those hard muscles of hers might look very different after a good taste of the whip. She may even enjoy it, who knows? But she's used to overpowering her lovers as much as her opponents, so having to submit may be a new experience for her. That's beggar number one, Francesca Garcia, the fighter!' She tried to imagine a crowd cheering back, making her feel perkier. Doing this live would have been far easier, although the security and privacy concerns for that would have been a nightmare.

'Our next subject is from a very different background. Emilia Featherly - a would-be business-leader, although her businesses don't generally do well.' The screen showed a trim woman in a knee-length suit-skirt, the blouse open to show a hint of cleavage, legs sheathed in dark nylons. 'She's here to try and drum up interest for her social media company, although...' Persephone lowered her voice dramatically. '...it's already gone bust. Not that she knows, but I feel you, not-so-gentle audience, can be trusted. She's not had a lover in a long time, so perhaps some of her frigidity might be melted away?'

'Mmmm, she's just my type! Stiff and reserved, but they melt away when forced to. And they tend to be very thankful, and there's a lot of uses I can find for the mouth of a clever girl. Go into her office, remind her of her debts and then put her over my knee, tell her she's a naughty girl.' His trousers were visibly tenting, cock rising up, Persephone unable not to notice. Why had everyone else been unavailable? Although the numbers of streamers were ticking up steadily, so he must be doing something right.

'Yes, perhaps we'll be able to melt that icy cunt of hers! And next we have another beauty that some of you may recognise, Olivia Davis. She was an actress, then there were some problems and a brief bout in rehab, and now she's here hoping to reform her image. Which, well... if any footage does leak, then she's unlikely to have normal work again! Although that might make her nice and easy to control, wouldn't you agree?'

'Oh yes, she looks the sort that can be made nice and friendly without too much work. And lovely breasts - she even did a topless scene in her first movie, did you know? And of course she's a bit of a party girl, so looks good in those skimpy dresses the youth seem to enjoy. Hmmm, perhaps we could make her dance?'

'Maybe that can be a challenge for her later!' His cock was still growing, swelling up between his thighs - he was huge! No wonder she always heard so much squealing when he was pounding someone, having something that size inserted would ache! And the eyes of the mask seemed far too bright as they were staring at her - she normally liked being looked at, but not by him.

'Coming from the other end of the, ah, "acting" scale, we have Taylor Conte, or Aka-Hime to her followers! You probably don't know her, but you'll know her type.'

The screen showed a bedroom, filled with soft plushies, everything in pastel shades. Stood in front of the camera was a petite young woman, tape over her breasts, wearing a tiny pleated micro-skirt, wires running up between her thighs from a control device on her thigh. Around her neck was a collar, metal letters spelling out "Bad Girl". She danced to some perky pop music, playing with her breasts then giggling, so high-pitched that Persephone winced. 'She's a cam-girl. I'll be honest, when we opened, we were snowed under with applications, so we just picked the one that would be easiest to grab without anyone noticing. She's a sweet young thing though, that likes being pleasured and teased, hasn't yet been introduced to anything rough. Which I'm sure will change!'

The audio flicked over to that from the recording, as Taylor breathlessly squealed. 'Oh, thank you, TinyTittyLover! That gift makes you my best donor this week!' The sounds of a vibrator could be heard, motor muted by flesh, fluids trickling down her thighs, before the video froze.

'A little common for my tastes. Rather plebian - good for a quick suck and fuck, I suppose, but there's no art there. And I'm no fan of all this modern "dress up", in those strange costumes, and the brightly-coloured wigs. All a little crass and artificial. Just give me a good, traditional girl that I can tear the clothing off! Although I suppose watching her protest her captivity might be amusing? A little vulgar, if you ask me. Although she is nice and small, and probably tight - plowing that ass of hers might be fun, just pin her down and take my pleasure.'

'Well, she's certainly going to be used hard! And, of course, all the stars will be available for hire or purchase afterwards! But, moving on - just two more, and then onto the show itself! Next is Ayaka Osaka. She's a realtor, although a lot of her sales come from fucking her clientele and blackmailing them into buying her most expensive properties. She likes it rough and hard, but she sinks her teeth in and then doesn't let go. She's broken up, according to my researches, at least fourteen marriages, eight companies and a lot of other relationships. I suppose you could say that she's possibly a better actress than the actual actress!'

The screen showed a slender Japanese woman, stylishly dressed with just a hint of makeup, gold shining at her ears, wearing a tight sweater that emphasised her pert breasts and slender waist, along with tight designer jeans. Another image appeared, this time of her on her knees, sucking at a cock.

'She's not the best at covering her tracks, so we've got lots of pictures of her in compromising positions! She thinks that she'll be able to hide here a while, but she's never being let go.'

This one got a sound of approval. 'She certainly is a looker! And I do enjoy the look in a woman's eyes when she realises she's not getting away. Reminds me a little of my fifth wife. Or was it the third? They do start to blur together after a while. It sounds like she's been a naughty little thing and needs punishing, and she seems eager enough. How does she enjoy a little pain, or some restraints?'

'She's used to being the one giving orders, not taking them.' Another picture, this time showing her dressed in a leather catsuit, pressing down with a heel onto a man's chest while flourishing a whip. 'So this might take some getting used to for her!'

'Hmmm, perhaps I should give her a test? If you would permit, Sephy?'

'Not yet! She'll need some breaking in first. After that, then I'm sure we can arrange something.' Persephone managed to hide her irritation at the mis-naming as she kept speaking. 'But moving onto the last of our lovely guests - Lexi Taylor. She married young, to a thrusting tech-entrepreneur, who spends all his time in the office. She's very bored, very pretty and was looking for some fun! The modern American housewife! She enjoys cake, adultery, and has a mild addiction to wine and anti-depressants. No children yet, so that lovely figure of hers hasn't yet been ruined by childbirth, but she does like to flaunt herself to the neighbours.'

A woman reclined by a swimming pool, wearing just a bikini, large sunglasses and a chunky golden necklace. She moved drowsily, one hand casually moving between her legs, lightly stroking herself, as a poolboy moved past, gawking at her.

'Oh yes, she's exquisite! Although probably has an insufferable accent. But just the type to squeal into a gag, sounding like a stuck pig as she's fucked, while being utterly drenched and loving it. Invite her to a private getaway, and some friends as well, and she'll be taking it in every hole, all at once, and loving it! Nothing like a domesticated slut for some pleasure!'

His cock was fully erect now, staggeringly large, Persephone having to tense her own thighs, starting to feel her own arousal come on, despite her dislike of the man. She coughed to try and clear her mind.

'These six are our not-so-lucky contestants! Each has chosen an identifier to use within the game. Francesca is "Champion", Emilia will be "Manageress", Taylor is "Princess", Olivia is "Showgirl", Ayaka is "Queen" and Lexi is "Precious". That's all that they will know about each other, at least to start with.'

'Ah yes, there's a game here, isn't there? Beyond just locking them in and training them?'

'Well, yes - the rules, that they know of, are that there is a prize pot, of three million dollars, which will be shared between the winners. To keep things interesting, they can win each other's shares of this, by winning in a variety of contests. Most importantly, each will be wearing one of these.' Persephone twisted around over the desk, uncomfortably aware that she was shoving her ass at her guest, and probably being leered at, but hopefully the audience appreciated it. She pulled out a large metal ring, with electrical prongs on the inside and a large battery pack on the back. 'To monitor their health, of course! And some extra features, to be controlled remotely, or for those audience members that donate enough money to have some playtime. Each of their apartments is also fully controlled. To start with, they will be able to control all those mod-cons - like the light, temperature, access to food, all those things. But if they loose enough games, then someone else will be able to take control. So those unfortunate enough to do badly might find themselves in the cold and the dark, begging for food. If they are allowed their voices!'

'Ah, I think I've heard of a similar setup from an acquaintance of mine. Although that was more for personal training. So, what facilities do they have in their rooms? I do hope they're well supplied with toys!'

'They might be able to earn that sort of thing, but, well - let's have a look. Our first guest is just being moved into their new accommodation.'

The feed changed to show a small apartment - there was a living room area with a couch facing a massive screen, an open area with a wooden floor, everything coloured in light pastels without any personal ornamentation. Through a doorway was a massive double bed, the metal frame bolted to the floor, another doorway leading to a bathroom with a toilet and shower. There were no external windows, the light from the bulbs shining down with false sunlight.

'Each has been prepped for their personal needs.'

The front door opened with a heavy "click", opening to reveal that it was thick and heavy metal. Two latex-clad women walked in with a stretcher between themselves. Their faces were covered behind breathing masks, the only visible flesh that around their eyes. On the stretcher was an unconscious woman wrapped in clingfilm, their body barely visible, face hidden behind a leather hood. They were carried through the room and laid onto the bed, before the women left, closing the door behind themselves.

 

 

 

 

 

Chapter One: The Show Begins (Precious)

Lexi ran a hand through her hair, now a bright and crimson red, rather than the dull and plain brown it had been. Two ribbons had been provided, and she quickly tied her hair into high pigtails, making sure that the ribbons were on the front, clearly visible to anyone looking at her.

She glanced around the room, trying to spot the cameras - she knew she was being recorded, but it would be interesting to know from where. There was an obvious black dome in the corner, but there must be more. The well-lit mirror was probably a two-way one, with a camera on the other side, if not a whole camera team.

The thought of being observed sent a thrill through her, making her whole body shiver with warmth. She pouted at the mirror, flicking her tongue over her lips and blowing a kiss at her unseen observers.

'I thought gentlemen preferred blondes?' There was all the makeup she needed, as well as jewellery - she picked up a large pink earring, embossed with her name, clipping it into place. The collar around her neck was tighter than she would like, with a little clip where a leash could be attached, but surely that wouldn't be done, would it? Even for a sexy reality TV show, there would be limits!

She looked around at the room she was in, which would likely be the limit of her world, at least until she won and could go home again. The makeup table next to a large, and currently locked, wardrobe, bathroom with see-through walls, a big double-bed and a kitchen-diner. Most of the furniture was well made but securely bolted into place and impossible to move, although cushions and throws softened the harsh edges somewhat. There was a large glass panel that looked like a window, but it showed an image of green hills and blue sky - it was behind a window that made it impossible to touch, but Lexi was pretty sure it was a screen.

The room was dominated by a massive TV screen with a camera above it, currently showing the show's icon - an unblinking eye with the pupil formed by a chain, above a stylised wooden chair and the text "The Begging Chair". It had sounded odd, but a two million dollar prize? For what had sounded like basically a popularity contest? She smiled again at the mirror, shifting in her chair and playing with her breasts. And to get out of that house, that stifling, always-the-same damn house.

A soft chime sounded out as an envelope icon flashed up. She stood and walked over - the apartment was comfortably heated, so she felt warm despite wearing only a skimpy pair of lace panties. As she approached, the message started to play, a flat and toneless voice reading out the words.

'We're not really gentlemen! But you're doing well.' The sound of money played, coins tinkling together. 'Much more exciting. Now kneel, spread your legs and put your hands on your head.'

She obeyed, turning her head and smiling, trying to look as sexy as possible - it was only the first day, but she seemed to be doing well. Being locked in and isolated was annoying, but the thought of being looked at and men getting hard from looking at her was, mmm... delicious.

'I'm looking forward to being dressed by you all. I wonder what you'll pick out for me?'

The message sound chimed again. 'Yes, you sold your right to choose your own clothing, didn't you? What should we pick?'

Images appeared on the screen, outfits scrolling past - party dresses, ball-gowns, body stockings, a latex bodysuit, tight hotpants and more. It had seemed an easy choice - the apartment was warm enough that even "nudity" wasn't that cold, and it meant she was probably drawing a lot more attention than her competitors. The images stopped scrolling, settling on tight sports shorts and a sleeveless vest.

She frowned - she'd rather something a little more modern! But she was distracted by the chiming sound of coins. She wasn't allowed to know her score without being deducted points, but she must be doing well - when she had agreed to dye her hair, the sound had kept going for quite some time, and it had been even longer when she had signed away her choice of clothing.

'This'll do, slut. This'll do.' That sounded like someone different than before - there must be some filtering going on, as there only seemed to be a few messages coming through. It was easier than dealing a continual stream of repetitive messages!

She looked at the wardrobe expectantly, but it didn't open. Instead, a panel on the wall clicked open, revealing a sealed plastic packet. Inside was the promised clothing - tight and trim exercise shorts and a sports vest. It looked like something from an old work-out video! But it was what had been paid for, however much had been donated, and so Lexi put it on.

It did at least look good on her (although most clothing did) - the shorts clung to her pert buttocks, while her breasts were clearly defined and shown under the top. She posed and preened, stroking her body, feeling a sting of desire in her pussy. It was a shame that the cameras were probably everywhere, as she was so turned on that she wanted to touch herself, to slide fingers into her hot and wet slit. But the recording contract had been very clear that she wasn't allowed to touch herself on-camera!

'Looking good.'

Having the compliment delivered in a flat and unemotional tone was somewhat unnerving, but Lexi still made herself smile, twisting and pulling the material tight around herself. Then she reached out and tapped the screen, pulling up the options - she could buy some time in the "blackout room", which had no cameras in, for 10000. That sounded a lot, especially when she had no idea how much she had. There was a jacuzzi tub in a (very plastic) looking garden that was 1000, and then pictures of food with smaller prices next to them. Maybe she could treat herself to something later? She'd never had the chance to wear something like that before, but the tight sleekness of it appealed to her.

She poked at the screen, making sure to wriggle her butt and show herself off - the sexier she looked, the more likely she was to get votes - and brought up the information on the other competitors. Whether any of the pictures were correct was a whole other matter though - part of the game was trying to work out who was telling the truth about themselves and who was lying. All the pictures that Lexi had provided were of herself - although often a bit touched up - but there was nothing to say the other competitors were telling the truth.

There were five others, and all the pictures showed them to be very attractive - there was a businesswoman, wearing skirt-suits, her jacket and silk blouse showing generous cleavage, some minions just out of shot. Thus far, there were only two pictures of each of them - the next up was very buff, one of her pictures showing her climbing up a cliff without any safety gear, the other in a gym, toned muscles and a sleek six-pack on display between a sports bra and tight exercise shorts.

That one had messaged her, asking about her own work-out routine, clearly having noticed Lexi's own trim body - not anywhere near as buff, but still showing evidence of her hard work to keep herself as attractive as possible. Not that she had much else to do every day, with Brian always at work! The exchange had seemed genuine, but had only been brief - but it was a start. Maybe then she could get some parts of the other woman's keycode?

Lexi glanced down at the corner of the screen where there was a glowing padlock icon. If the instructions of the game were correct, then that could be used to try and make attempts at guessing another's code, which would allow control of things like room lights and temperature. And more importantly, could be used to transfer points to other players. It hadn't been very clearly explained, but it sounded as though it would be possible to get another's code! Of course, without a reason to give numbers up, no-one would do such a thing, but there would probably be some kind of vote or contest, with the winner getting a number from the loser?

There was another woman, bright pink hair and wearing a pastel blue t-shirt, sat at a computer desk, her other picture showing her in an outlandish costume, some sort of tight and skimpy sci-fi getup, tight blue material clinging to her body, stylised battle-damage across her breasts and belly. The only message from her had been an incomprehensible stream of emoticons and 'net slang, that Lexi had sent a polite response to, but hadn't been able to properly understand what they were saying.

The other two were more mysterious - one looked like a generic model, all lips and boobs, and hadn't said much beyond a cursory greeting. And the last was an Asian woman, dressed between "smartly" and "sexily", wearing tight dresses and high heels, at some event with glasses of champagne. Lexi couldn't tell if she was an escort, another housewife, or maybe a PA or something?

None of them had names, or at least real names, given - Manageress, Champion, Princess, Showgirl and Queen. Lexi had entered her own as "Precious". She scrolled through the pictures again - at least one person was probably lying, but she didn't have much to go on so far.

An envelope icon flashed up, and Lexi pressed the screen to open it up. A loud sound blared out, a horn making Lexi wince from the volume of it.

A challenge has been declared! Princess wishes to challenge you to a test of stamina. The winner will gain an extra vote for the first leadership election.

Lexi had no idea what that actually meant, but it would probably give some level of power and control? With only six of them, then any extra votes would be powerful, even if there was some level of external control from a viewer poll or something. Although with all of the stuff she'd been doing for the viewers, hopefully she would do well on that count as well.

She pressed the green tick to agree to the challenge. It might be nice to have something to do as well - this room was nice, but the door was securely locked and there was no way out, and nothing to do other than watch the screen constantly in the hope of a new message, or obsesses over the ten images of her competition.

Challenge accepted! Another tinny horn sound came from the TV, sounding a little cheap and tacky.

Precious will proceed to the challenge room.

She heard the click of her door, moving swiftly towards it. She'd been brought here, wherever here was, blindfolded and deafened, only removing the restraints in the room, and was curious to see the rest of the place.

Outside the door was a long hallway, a bright bulb above, but otherwise dark. When she moved forward, another bulb lit up, showing her the way to go - it was like an upmarket hotel, with soft carpeting underfoot and plain white walls. And utterly anonymous - she did pass by several doors, but they were all closed, and there was no way to tell if they were for the other competitors, or the camera and editing teams were behind them, or if they were cosmetic. As she moved, the lights blinked out behind her, and side-passages remained entirely unlit. If she had to navigate by herself, it would be easy to get lost, as there weren't any landmarks or anything to tell the plain walls apart.

Another lock popped open, a door sliding open, another light flickering on. It illuminated a cold and sterile room, all plain white tile and chrome polish, looking uncomfortably surgical. The only spot of colour was a bright pink cushion set on the floor, in front of a steel post, topped with a roughly circular metal frame.

As soon as she stepped inside, the door clicked shut behind her. There wasn't even a handle on the inside for her to pull on, the frame flush with the surround. She had a quick look around the room, wrapping her arms around herself to try and stay a little warmer, this place colder than her own room. Metal cabinets and lockers covered one wall, all locked, and a wide mirror dominated the longest wall. She waved and smiled at it - that must be a one-way mirror, with a camera crew behind it.

A screen blinked on, in front of the post, a downwards arrow pointing at it. Lexi approached, unsure what she was meant to be doing, but settling for kneeling on the cushion, glad for something that protected her knees against the cold tile floor. With the post in front of her, she could see that there was a heavy leather strap around the top, buckle gleaming in the cold light. There was a horizontal bar on top of the pole, with circular rings, about the size of her wrists, on each end.

She glanced up at the screen again.

Stamina challenge 14. Had there been other challenges already, or had Showgirl chosen from a list? Breath challenge.

A stick figure diagram appeared, showing a strap going around the neck. She hesitated, then obeyed, the belt pulling her up close to the post, barely able to move her head forward or back, the leather tight around her neck, post against her throat. Next she was instructed to put her hands into the circular bands - they snapped shut as soon as she did so, making her pull on them in surprise. There was no give at all, and no padding inside the metal, which pinched at her flesh as she wriggled against them. Her fingers flapped, pressing against plastic on the inside of the post.

With her hands locked into place, she couldn't release her neck! She flailed her fingers some more, tapping against the plastic, finding them to be buttons.

The winner will be the one that can endure the longest. When a competitor wishes to surrender, they can press the right button. Press the right button.

Lexi obeyed, tapping her fingers against it, feeling it depress.

The competitor may start by pressing both buttons. She obeyed again, pressing them both down, until the screen flashed in acknowledgement. Challenge begins!

A panel in the wall slid aside, in front of her face, and a black shaft, slick and ominous, slid out. It moved with smooth, mechanical grace and power, pushing towards her mouth. She pressed her lips shut, the thing pressing against them - it was slightly rubbery, and slippery with some kind of lubricant. It kept pushing forward, and she had to open her mouth to let it in, the thing sitting there, fat and heavy.

It started to push forward again - with the belt around her neck, she couldn't move her head back to reduce the strain, as it filled her mouth, her tongue flicking over it, tasting the slippery rubber. It filled her mouth, making it impossible to speak properly, any words mangled and mushy.

'Whaph iph thiph!?'

The thing slid deeper in, probing into her throat, making her cough and splutter, her eyes starting to water.

The competitor who can hold for the longest time wins. Press the left button to advance.

Despite the pain in her throat, Lexi wanted to win, and so pressed the button. She felt the shaft expand in her mouth, inflating and swelling as it started to twist around, scraping around in her throat. She coughed and spluttered, trying to pull away, wanting to clear her throat, but the strap was too tight. Her wrists and arms pulled against the restraints, but the metal was merciless, not letting her go.

A number appeared on the screen, only slowly increasing, from 18 to 19, then flashing without incrementing. That didn't seem very high? Despite the bulk of the thing in her mouth, she fumbled around, being careful not to press the right-hand button, fingers pressing against the other button.

The shaft withdrew, allowing her a single short breath before pumping forward with vigour, even larger now. It made her cheeks bulge out, straining to take the size of it, making her throat strain to endure the shaft.

'Mmpphh! Mph!' She couldn't do more than splutter, but the number was ticking up higher now - 24, 25, 26... There was no way to tell how the other contestant was doing. She looked like someone that wasn't a stranger to cock-sucking, but this was pretty large! She tried not to remember past memories, of strong hands on her head, pushing her head back and forth as she tried to make it more gentle.

She kept her finger on the button, the pistoning action getting faster and faster, slamming in and out of her mouth, before shoving forward and staying in position. 38. Fluid starting oozing out, thick and sticky. Some of it dribbled out, over her chin, but it was being pumped with enough vigour that she had to swallow before it flowed into her lungs.

It was bitter, stinging her throat with a harsh flavour, but she didn't let go. She wouldn't loose out, not so easily! She was desperate for air, trying to breath around the shaft, sucking air through her nose, using her tongue to splash the fluid out, as much as possible.

Her vision started to waver, lungs burning, darkness creeping into the edges of her eyes. She needed air! But she didn't want to be defeated. 42 ticked up to 43, blinking for a long second before 44. But she was barely conscious now! She removed her finger from the button, but it stayed depressed, the fake cock unrelenting, forcing her to weakly scrabble for the other button. She couldn't hear any click as she pressed it, but her score flashed on 45, the shaft withdrawing. She let the stuff dribble from her mouth, wrinkling her nose at the smell, needing time to regain herself, the aching in her lungs slowly fading.

When the wrist-shackles popped open, her arms dropped to the floor, weak and powerless. The liquid had a thick, musky aftertaste and scent, one that wouldn't shift, her chin smeared with it. Lexi had to strain against the neck-strap before she found the strength to lift her hands and clumsily unbuckle it, barely able to stand as she wiped gunk off her face, smearing it over her thin top. Had she won?

The door didn't open, and the screen turned off. Was Showgirl in a nearby room? The organisers would have to let one of them leave fast, so they didn't encounter each other in the passageways. But the hallways had seemed quite large - with just 6 contestants, it seemed larger than it needed to be. Unless there were lots of contest rooms?

The shaft retracted with a motorised whine, wall closing back up so that the only sign it had ever been there was some of the liquid, still puddled on the floor. Then the door popped open, lock unsealing and letting Lexi exit. She moved down the dark passages, glad of the bubble of light around her.

At one junction, she looked left, and saw a blur of movement at the end of an otherwise-dark passageway, before the light blinked out. Had that been her rival? She hadn't seen more than a brief darkness, not enough to even tell their gender, but seeing some evidence of life was something of a relief.

The way back to her room seemed longer than the way out, and it was a relief to come back into the small apartment, the lights tinted like sunlight rather than harsh electric bulbs. There was nothing on the screen, so she went to the shower, glad to clean herself up and clean the taste out of her mouth.

 

Chapter Two: A Victory and a Prize (Showgirl)

Olivia swirled water around her mouth, trying to clear out the taste of the paste, and to relax her throat and jaw from their recent ravaging. She knew that this was a saucy show, but hadn't expected anything quite that violently vigorous on the first challenge! If it was the first challenge, anyway - she hadn't been involved in any, but being isolated, it was possible that the other contestants had. Back in the living room, she heard the screen chime, and spat out the water, her head still feeling dazed from the throat-ravaging and not being able to breath properly. And the taste of that paste! She winced, sucking her cheeks in and spitting again, before checking her reflection - her eyes had been watering, making her mascara run down her cheeks in thick black streaks.

She'd always hated that sort of thing - sucking someone off wasn't too bad, but being forced and used roughly just hurt! But it was hard to say no, especially when they were pushy.

The screen chimed again, and she tried to wipe away some of the black smears, without a great deal of success. Maybe she could try and gain some extra sympathy? Tears were still trickling down her face, as she did a quick vocal exercise, checking that she could still speak properly.

She went into the main room, where the screen was flashing the "eye" logo of the show, the pupil-chain slowly rotating. An electronic voice spoke, and her eyes flicked about the room - being filmed on set was one thing, but being recorded all the time was a little more un-nerving! And there must be someone, or probably a whole team, watching the camera-feeds, editors ready to chop and splice footage to make it more interesting. She'd have to be careful not to do anything too bad, that might damage her reputation afterwards, but this could be what her career needed. Her hand started to shake, and she forced it to stop by tensing up. And going cold turkey without the scandal of rehab! Although she could feel a cold sweat pouring from her skin, as she recovered from the throat pounding.

'Congratulations, Showgirl!' Lights exploded on the screen, a recorded of a fireworks display momentarily displacing the omnipresent eye. 'You were successful in your challenge!' Times flashed up: 45 seconds for Precious, while she had managed 57 seconds. It had felt far longer, having that huge shaft pumping in and out of her throat.

Still, having won something was nice. Maybe she would get a treat? Or some nicer clothing? The dresses here were all fairly plain and bland - she ran her hands down her body, feeling the dip and curve of her hips, wincing at the feel of the cotton. At least it was tight enough around her hips and waist to show off her figure, but it was a rather drab grey color, and the low neckline exaggerated her bust uncomfortably, as well as making the safety-collar around her neck obvious. She knew that they had to be monitored, but... Her hand came up, feeling along the metal, smooth and warmed by her body, impossible to remove, with the bulk of the powerpack on the back, beneath her brunette hair.

'A reward has been prepared.'

Stars burst on the screen, a score flashing up and ticking upwards, her score now... 21,500. That seemed alright, maybe? Although she had no idea how many points the other contestants were on, or even what they were like, beyond the isolated pictures she was permitted to see. They were all very attractive, but that was only to be expected, but "Champion" and "Queen" both looked intimidating and bossy. Princess and Precious both looked... softer, Princess especially, all pink and petite. And Precious apparently didn't have as much stamina? Well, that was something.

'So, what's my reward?' She wanted something nice. And it was nice having someone, or something, to talk to, even if it was just an assistant in a back-room somewhere with a text-to-speech. And however many viewers were watching! Hopefully lots - she made herself smile, crossing her arms in front of herself to plump her breasts up.

'Some nicer clothing. And a show has been requested.'

'A show?'

'But you must make a choice first. You may select one of your contestants to undergo a solo trial. If they fail, then you will be awarded with part of their code.'

The five names flashed up on screen, each with an associated icon - they seemed to have a decent graphical designer on board, at least.

'What do they have to do?'

'But you must make a choice first. You may select one of your contestants to undergo a solo trial. If they fail, then you will be awarded with part of their code.'

Olivia rolled her eyes. They could at least mix it up a little! And maybe alter the tone of the electronic voice to make it something other than constant and bland? Shouldn't there be some kind of characterization to it, or a mascot character or something?

'Will they know it was me?' If she could get an edge over some of the scarier-looking ones, then that would make things easier, but she didn't want to risk reprisals.

'They will not be told.'

That was a relief! 'Champion, then.' She looked strong and powerful, her body lithe, dressed for training, all slender and toned. In any sort of physical contest, then she would be a strong contender, so if Olivia could get control of her in some way, then that would be a lot better!

'Understood.'

'My... my reward?'

She heard a noise, part of the wall opening up. She hadn't realized the hidden compartment had even been there! Inside was a dress-bag, which she took, laying it out on the couch before unzipping it.

Inside was... an outfit? Probably? It seemed to consist mostly of latex and lace, with buckles and straps gleaming amongst the fabric, and with lots of crisscrossed cords over cut-out panels. It looked even skimpier than some of the monstrosities that American stars wore to the Met gala! And what seemed to be a stomacher around her waist, not that she needed any assistance with that. And there was a bag with a pair of heels in, although they looked like fairly mundane stilettos, the heels high and thin.

'Do I... have to?'

She reached out and touched it - it was a strange sensation, the slightly scratchy lace next to slick-smooth latex.

'It is your prize. The viewers may think poorly of you if you turn it down.'

She lifted it up - it was heavier than she expected, the metal buckles and leather straps giving it more weight than it would have if it were just a simple dress or a chemise. And to get it on she'd have to strip! She looked around, flushing as her eyes picked out the cameras. She'd done nude scenes before, but hadn't enjoyed it, and this seemed even more intrusive. She picked up the dress and went into the bedroom, hoping that would give her some more privacy. Although there were probably cameras even in here, and the collar likely had one in as well, amongst whatever electronics were packed into it! She wanted a drink, although just the thought made her hand shake again until she took several deep breaths, managing to force herself into stability, then putting the shoes in - the dress looked like it might make it hard to move once it was on!
