                Lady 
                  Sarah Arlington was just shy of 24 the day she was put aboard 
                  the Golden Swan to be shipped away from her homeland. She had 
                  spent years maneuvering to avoid arranged marriages and other 
                  challenges that would rob her of her birthright. Her uncle and 
                  a supposed half brother had finally succeeded in exiling her 
                  from her home, the estates she should have rightfully inherited 
                  and ruled following the death of her father. And she would have 
                  except for one thing...she was born female.
                Sarah 
                  was the only child of Lord Oxton Arlington, Earl of Sheldon 
                  and his wife. Pampered by her father, taught the ways of the 
                  landed gentry by her mother, Sarah knew no hardships until both 
                  were taken by a suspicious fire when she was 12. Her uncle, 
                  Lord Oxton's brother, became her guardian and overseer of the 
                  estates. Bulsford Arlington quickly saw that through deceit 
                  of others and manipulation of his ward, he could gain both the 
                  wealth and social status that had always evaded him, having 
                  gone instead to his elder brother. Outwardly, he continued the 
                  education, the grooming of his niece in the ways of the upper 
                  upper classes while plotting in the background to cast her aside. 
                  
                Highly 
                  intelligent, a budding beauty, Sarah learned all the social 
                  graces. She also became haughty and aloof. She reveled at the 
                  elegant balls, the extravagant shopping and the other privileges 
                  of wealth and status. And she treated those beneath her as riff 
                  raff... mere creatures whose very existence was to serve her 
                  every desire, to answer her beck and call. Sarah never showed 
                  appreciation for anything, but she was never hesitant to express 
                  displeasure over event the tiniest of inconveniences. When suddenly 
                  freed from the bonds of her watchful mother, Sarah gave way 
                  to whim and impulse. She quickly became accustomed to getting 
                  her way at every turn and to creating a tempest whenever even 
                  the most minor of things did not please her.
                Before 
                  she was 15, Sarah began recognizing the ploys of her uncle. 
                  Able to analyze situations, she reacted with designs of her 
                  own to recover control over her inheritance... with visions 
                  of becoming the grand lady of the expansive estates and sending 
                  her uncle packing back to the commerce houses in London.
                  
                Sensing 
                  the potential loss of his newfound status and wealth, Bulsford 
                  countered by taking two bold actions. First, to steel his position 
                  with the crown, he offered Sarah as bride in an international 
                  arranged marriage. She had all the qualities... the youth, lineage, 
                  breeding and beauty to help seal some important political or 
                  commercial alliance through marriage. Within months, Sarah was 
                  bartered to become the bride of an elderly lord of a huge commercially 
                  and militarily important fiefdom on the Iberian Peninsula. The 
                  old man was seeking his fifth marriage because none of his previous 
                  wives had borne him an heir. The marriages had been annulled 
                  when each of the wives was declared barren... even though three 
                  of them later bore children to other men. One condition of the 
                  marriage, to occur in Sarah's 16th year, was that she be an 
                  unsoiled maiden. Sarah, of course, wasn't consulted about this 
                  arrangement and there were no plans to even tell her until the 
                  wedding day was at hand.
                Lord 
                  Bulsford's second action was even more devastating and devious. 
                  In exchange for offing Sarah, like no more than livestock, to 
                  be traded away, Bulsford got Sarah's alleged half brother, the 
                  supposed bastard child of Lord Oxton, declared to be his legitimate 
                  son and heir. Sweet Charlie as he was known, had been the whelp 
                  of a woman who had served as no more than a bed warmer and toy 
                  to Oxton when he sat in the House of Lords. In exchange for 
                  Bulsford's support and Sarah's body, the Ministers and Bishop 
                  who made this declaration did not care that Charlie more likely 
                  sprang from the seed of some traveling merchant or even a wayward 
                  seaman. To avoid confrontation and conflict with his wife, Oxton 
                  had provided a comfortable stipend for the woman and her bastard 
                  to send her away, keep her quiet. This alone was sufficient 
                  evidence to have Charlie declared to be the true and legitimate 
                  son of Oxford and, being male, the heir to his estates and title. 
                  Charlie was 4 years older than Sarah.
                Bulsford 
                  had found Sweet Charlie living in one of the seedier sections 
                  of London. Outwardly, Charlie worked as a clerk in one of the 
                  exchange houses in the financial district. But most of Sweet 
                  Charlie's life consisted of serving the perversions of wealthy 
                  men who either did not enjoy women, or who sought wicked diversions 
                  with pretty boys. Bulsford had not hesitated a moment in bringing 
                  Charlie into his plot by first coupling with him, and then manipulating 
                  him into thinking he would actually be able to assume the rights 
                  and privileges of his new station in life. Sweet Charlie had 
                  neither the intellect nor the inclination to engage in more 
                  than a life of perverse pleasures. Bulsford had no difficulty 
                  in making Charlie his pawn.
                  
                Sarah 
                  was enraged when she learned of all things dealing with Charlie. 
                  Bulsford had her confined to a country estate where he could 
                  watch her carefully, control her actions. But ultimately this 
                  had backfired when Sarah overheard her uncle discussing her 
                  pending marriage and its primary condition that she be delivered 
                  a virgin to her intended husband. Uncharacteristically, Sarah 
                  went calmly to her chambers to think through things, to plan 
                  how she could avoid this unfathomable fate and reclaim what 
                  was rightfully hers.
                Two 
                  days later, Sarah made sure that she was publicly discovered 
                  in the loft of the stables... a young, handsome stable hand 
                  thrashing between her open legs. She had given her maidenhood 
                  in a situation where it would be widely and publically known 
                  she was unfit to fulfill the marriage contract. She never gave 
                  thought to what would happen to the young man who had staked 
                  her in the hay... nor did she care. He had served her purpose. 
                  Bulsford banished him to a desolate game preserve where the 
                  grizzled gamekeeper preferred the company of goats and boys 
                  to the softness of a woman.
                For 
                  years thereafter, Sarah waged a covert war against Bulsford 
                  and his boy toy. Each time Bulsford hatched a plot to be rid 
                  of her, Sarah countered effectively using the only tools she 
                  had available... her sharp, even cunning mind and a stunning 
                  beauty, a supple body that drew the lecherous attention of most 
                  men and many women. Sarah decided that if men would so easily 
                  trade her body to achieve their ambitions, she would more easily 
                  use it to her own profit... and pleasure!
                Sarah 
                  began by providing her charms to a number of handsome, virile 
                  young men... men who would protect her should Bulsford threaten 
                  her physical harm. She then began to undermine Bulsford's power 
                  base by appealing to the lust of his allies. If she saw potential 
                  advantage, she seldom hesitated to lie with a wealthy merchant 
                  or banker. She was able to gain the title of Lady Sarah by frequently 
                  spreading her legs and wrapping them around one of the ministers 
                  representing the crown.
                Her 
                  grandest conquest was straddling and riding the bishop who had 
                  betrayed her. She had seduced him in his own inner sanctum. 
                  There, she had drained him of his unholy seed as he lay on his 
                  back, wide eyed and gasping for breath... his fingers digging 
                  deeply into her full and luscious breasts. His vestments, wrinkled 
                  and balled under them as they fucked on his writing table, were 
                  stained by the remnants of their coupling. While his breathing 
                  and heart labored from their mad tryst, while his staff was 
                  still buried deep inside her, Sarah leaned to whisper to the 
                  despoiled vicar that she would not hesitate a moment to inform 
                  the Arch Bishop, his priests and all of his congregations of 
                  his carnal sins if he ever again took any action that displeased 
                  her. Then, slipping off him... she took the hand bearing the 
                  holy rings of his office, placed it at the vee of her legs, 
                  and forced his fingers deep into the still hot and wet tunnel 
                  where he had committed mortal sin. With her other hand, she 
                  lifted then dropped his shriveled cock and sneered at him, saying 
                  that she might again make use of him... take him to her bosom 
                  and bed... if only he would do her bidding. Then, as she turned 
                  away, over her bare shoulder she hurled the final insult... 
                  "If you are man enough to serve me, to please me!" 
                  And she left him. A trembling, broken old man sprawled naked 
                  and crying in the very seat of his power and influence!
                Sarah's 
                  influence and power grew tremendously and she was on the very 
                  verge of regaining what was rightfully hers. Through her cunning, 
                  accumulation of dark secrets, and an unflinching willingness 
                  to use them to her advantage, Lady Sarah Arlington was a person 
                  to be reckoned with. She was used to having things her way and 
                  was willing to squash anyone who dared stand in her path.
                Then 
                  Bulsford managed to strike a fatal blow. Sarah had become lax 
                  in her vigilance as her power grew. Alone at one of the country 
                  manors, her bedchamber was invaded in the middle of the night. 
                  Two strong men bound and gagged her, tossed her in a farming 
                  cart and hauled her to the nearby seaport where she was unceremoniously 
                  dumped into a below decks cabin aboard an old ship, the Golden 
                  Swan. Just before dawn, when the merchant ship would sail on 
                  the outgoing tide, the cabin door was unlocked. Bulsford and 
                  his pretty toy, dressed in lace and bright colors, entered to 
                  find her bound, draped only in light bedclothes, lying on the 
                  rough planked deck. 
                In 
                  the flickering light of a lantern, Bulsford had looked down 
                  on her and laughed. "Finally I am done of you, you whorish 
                  bitch!" he sneered. "You'll soon enough be in the 
                  harem of an Arabic Sultan who seeks only a light skinned beauty 
                  who is good for fucking. And when your beauty fades, you will 
                  spend the remainder of your days strapped on your back in some 
                  dreary seaport doing for any vagrant with a copper penny what 
                  you have tried to do to me!" And he laughed as he turned 
                  to go, slinging a final stone. "And I am richer one cask 
                  of olive oil for being rid of you!"
                "Ta 
                  ta sweetie" gushed Sweet Charlie as he waved a laced hankie 
                  and followed Bulsford out, giggling like a schoolgirl.
                Thus 
                  Sweet Charlie became Lord Charles Arlington, Earl of Sexton. 
                  And Bulsford Arlington became a man of wealth and power without 
                  the hindrance of his haughty niece.
                *****
                The 
                  cabin door was not opened again for over a day, until the ship 
                  was well out to sea. Inside was a seasick, bound woman who had 
                  soiled herself during the many hours she had been left untended. 
                  Powerless and terrified, unable to have her accustomed way through 
                  a smile, avarice or cunning, Lady Sarah Arlington, legitimate 
                  heir to the wealth and estates of Lord Oxton, was a prisoner. 
                  She feared she would never see her homeland again. 
                However, 
                  within days, she became determined that she would again establish 
                  herself. No matter what else happened, she would never just 
                  take her place as sex toy to some sultan... one among many. 
                  And most certainly, she would never become a seaport whore, 
                  to be humped on by any grunting, sweaty, drunken man who could 
                  afford the small price it would take to have her.
                No 
                  matter where the winds took her, she would again be Lady Sarah, 
                  a woman who had her own way and a force to be reckoned with!
                Once 
                  free to stand, Sarah soon gained her sealegs and regained her 
                  stomach. She quickly beguiled the cabin boy who brought her 
                  meager meals and water, emptied her chamber pot. Although he 
                  was not yet old enough to even have a peach fuzz beard, the 
                  lad had watched in awestruck wonder when Sarah lifted off the 
                  tattered nightgown and donned the seaman's blouse and dungarees 
                  he had sneaked for her. Sarah intentionally made no effort conceal 
                  herself from the boy, knowing he would not be able to keep a 
                  still tongue. Surely enough, it was one of the ship's mates 
                  who next graced the door of her cabin.
                Over 
                  the next three weeks, Sarah was able to learn a great deal about 
                  the ship and its destinations from the succession of officers 
                  and crew who made way into her cabin. All she needed to do was 
                  show a smile, an ankle or a bit of shoulder... or significant 
                  cleavage in the oversized, billowing seaman's blouse... to have 
                  them babbling away, answering her questions. Each was hoping 
                  to get a view like the cabin boy's... or more! Although she 
                  shamelessly took to bathing in front of the young lad with a 
                  rag and a small pail of water he had brought her, she gave only 
                  hope and frustration to all others.
                Sarah 
                  learned that it would take 4 months to reach the destination 
                  where she, along with some of the rest of the ship's cargo, 
                  would be offloaded. The entire voyage was to last for nearly 
                  3 years. By listening carefully, and by peeking through a small 
                  crack in the wall of her cabin, Sarah learned which of the ship's 
                  crew had found shipwives. For most of the crew, there would 
                  be no scent or touch of a woman for years. Some of the strongest 
                  of the crew selected from among the weaker... or the willing... 
                  to relieve themselves of their sexual frustrations. The secluded 
                  corner outside her cabin was a favored place to have a shipwife 
                  or toy either bend over a beam and spread their asscheeks, or 
                  kneel down and offer willing lips. In return for becoming a 
                  shipwife... serving the needs of only one man... the weaker 
                  were protected from others. They were able to avoid being raped 
                  by any stronger man who desired them or went into a sexual rage. 
                  Experienced seamen knew to establish these relationships early 
                  in the voyage. Even the young cabin boy was not immune. With 
                  his tender ass and soft lips, he quickly became the toy of the 
                  ship's blacksmith... the one man none of the crew would dare 
                  challenge merely for a piece of meat.
                In 
                  the fourth week of the voyage, Sarah knew her plan was working 
                  when the ship's Second Officer entered her cabin. A recent graduate 
                  of the Maritime Academy, he was not quite her age. A very polite 
                  young man, formal in the way of the professional seaman, he 
                  inquired about her health and well being. But he was no match 
                  for a woman who had seduced government ministers, church bishops 
                  and captains of industry. It seemed no time at all before her 
                  simple seaman's dress and his officer's uniform lay mingled 
                  on the deck and they were thrashing on the dirty quilts that 
                  made up her bed. She was savage as she fucked him, not realizing 
                  until he entered her how much she desired this... needed this... 
                  that it was no longer simply a part of her plan! She had never 
                  gone this long without a man since that long ago day in the 
                  stable loft! 
                But 
                  her cunning ways returned as soon as her passion calmed. Like 
                  the bishop and many others before, Sarah knew that a word to 
                  her lover's superior would ruin his career. She had her ally 
                  to escape... or at least she thought she did. But the chink 
                  in her cabin wall worked both ways, and within hours, every 
                  able-bodied seaman knew what had happened and held the same 
                  scythe over the young officer's head that Sarah held. Immediately, 
                  ship's discipline was eroded during the officer's watch. It 
                  took the ship's captain, a man with decades on the high seas, 
                  on his last voyage before retirement, only two days to see what 
                  was happening, and determine its cause. His actions were immediate 
                  and decisive!
                For 
                  the first time since being brought aboard, Sarah was taken from 
                  her cabin and brought onto the open deck. She, along with the 
                  entire crew, watched as the young officer was stripped of his 
                  rank, his shirt, bound to the ship's rigging. He was given 50 
                  lashes with a cat o nine by the blacksmith... also the ship's 
                  disciplinarian. The young man barely survived, but that was 
                  not Sarah's concern. She simply realized she needed a new and 
                  better plan. It was not her fault if this man, like most men, 
                  was so weak in the flesh, and so foolish or stupid as to put 
                  himself in this situation!
                The 
                  captain recognized other implications. Now, every man aboard 
                  would be having visions of lying in that cabin, sharing the 
                  savage carnal pleasures that had been the young officer's undoing. 
                  A God-fearing man, the captain tolerated the sexual perversions 
                  of his seamen only because he knew he could not prevent them. 
                  For decades he had simply pretended these things did not happen 
                  so long as it did not effect the strict discipline of his ship! 
                  But he could not go on with this harlot aboard. He made a slight 
                  alteration in course and, two days later, nearing a craggy island, 
                  he raised a white flag of truce. Almost immediately, a sleek 
                  privateer slipped from the heavily guarded harbor. He nodded 
                  in rueful satisfaction when he saw the ship's flag... the silhouette 
                  of a falcon in flight. He had come to the right place, at the 
                  right time.
                It 
                  was a small band of brigands that climbed aboard the merchant 
                  ship when the two vessels stood side by side. They were all 
                  heavily armed, and most wore many scars of battle. It did not 
                  take long and the exchange was made. The renegades left quickly 
                  with Sarah and a few valuable supplies aboard. The merchant 
                  ship sailed on, lucky that it had not been taken and sacked. 
                  As the merchant ship sailed on, the captain knelt in his cabin, 
                  giving thanks and praying for forgiveness. Even a common street 
                  whore deserved a better fate! The captain got little solace 
                  from the small purse of silver coins in his pocket. It was his 
                  only choice. No matter how worthless and debased that woman 
                  had been, he could not have thrown her overboard with the rest 
                  of the ship's garbage.
                *****
                Sarah 
                  felt the extremes of mixed reactions as the small ship sped 
                  back to the safety of the harbor. She felt tremendous relief 
                  to be off the merchant ship, out from her below decks confinement 
                  and free from her journey to become just another ornament for 
                  a man's sexual enjoyment.
                Sarah 
                  had never encountered men like these. First, she could not comprehend 
                  their language... it was gibberish, and unlike anything she 
                  had ever heard. More amazing were the colors of their skin! 
                  Some were copper colored, while others were olive. Two were 
                  deeply tanned, but she expected their natural pigmentation to 
                  be close to her own. But the ones she feared the most, and that 
                  intrigued her the most, were those whose skin was black as midnight! 
                  Their eyes and teeth stood out in their fierce, scarred faces, 
                  white in stark contrast to their skins. And the palms of their 
                  hands, the soles of their bare feet were light like her own... 
                  as though they had been bleached. Immediately, Sarah began assessing, 
                  trying to see how she could turn this new situation to her advantage.
                Other 
                  than to gauge her with an appraising eye, none of the men seemed 
                  to pay Sarah any attention. She was dressed in the billowy seaman's 
                  blouse and dungarees, barefoot. Her hair had not been washed 
                  or combed for weeks, and she had lost a good deal of weight 
                  since being stolen away from her home. Yet she was amazed that 
                  these men seemed to have no more interest in her than the keg 
                  of wine or a small cask of nails that had also been put aboard 
                  the small vessel along with her.
                The 
                  harbor was larger than Sarah expected and well protected... 
                  not only from the elements, but from invasion as well, The high 
                  granite cliffs were well fortified. The harbor itself was busier 
                  than any she had ever seen. Many sleek, armed vessels like the 
                  one she was aboard were at the wharves, smaller boats sailed 
                  or were rowed between them. To one side of the harbor, people 
                  in chains, both men and women, totally naked and black as onyx, 
                  were being herded like cattle from small craft onto a ship much 
                  like the one she had just escaped. This had to be some of the 
                  slave traffic she had heard about, but that had never been her 
                  concern. What real difference was there, she had asked herself 
                  the one time she had given this any thought at all, between 
                  the people who were stolen from their homes to be shipped to 
                  the different world... and the masses that toiled to serve the 
                  needs of the gentry in the world she knew! Besides, she now 
                  thought to herself... could beings that looked so different 
                  really be human? A shiver ran through her as her gaze fell on 
                  the huge ebony man towering near her.
                As 
                  they sailed across the harbor, Sarah thought the area surrounding 
                  the wharves and the city spreading up onto the hillsides looked 
                  like a busy anthill... people and materials were being moved 
                  everywhere!
                The 
                  small craft headed directly for the largest and busiest of the 
                  shore areas. Above it flew a larger version of the same flag, 
                  as was on the ship... the silhouetted falcon. The vessel had 
                  not even been secured to the pilings before two of the men grabbed 
                  Sarah's arms and forced her off onto the wharf. Totally unused 
                  to such treatment, Sarah fought to be released as soon as her 
                  feet were on solid planking. The struggle stopped when she was 
                  struck to the ground by a backhand across her face from the 
                  black man she had been eyeing earlier. The hustle and bustle 
                  on the crowded docks stopped to watch as the man glowered down 
                  at her and she glared up at him. Reaching down with one hand, 
                  grabbing her hair, the man yanked Sarah to her feet, raising 
                  her to tiptoe level as he stared, angrily, into her eyes. Slowly 
                  he lowered her, still holding onto her hair, pulling it tight 
                  in his outstretched left hand, while the right reached for the 
                  neckline of billowy seaman's blouse. With a single yank, he 
                  tore the blouse away from her torso. Sarah's breasts, shrunken 
                  and wan from the time on the merchant ship, swung free and bounced 
                  as she flailed at the man, her arms tethered by the remnants 
                  of the blouse clinging to her wrists. The crowd roared in approval 
                  and began laughing as she swung at him, her arms too short to 
                  reach the mountain of a man. Again, he simply raised his outstretched 
                  arm, this time lifting Sarah completely off the ground by her 
                  hair. She began kicking at him as she reached up to grab his 
                  single hand in both of hers, supporting herself. She landed 
                  several kicks, but none strong enough to make the man do anything 
                  more than smile... a smile more sinister than anything Sarah 
                  had ever seen! 
                With 
                  incredible strength, held out by her hair at arm's length, Sarah 
                  flapped like a rag doll in a strong wind as the man took her 
                  across the wharf and dunked her, unceremoniously, into a tank 
                  of cold water. Sarah gasped and sputtered, swallowing a large 
                  amount of water as she was pushed under the surface. She felt 
                  herself being lifted by her hair again, her head just breaking 
                  the surface before being pushed back under again... and again 
                  she took a large amount of water. Her struggles turned from 
                  those of anger and escape to those of survival as she was held 
                  under the water for a few more moments. Sarah coughed out water 
                  and fell to the wharf when finally, again by her hair, she was 
                  yanked from the tank, scraping her breasts and left side on 
                  its edge. The huge man laughed as he towered over the woman, 
                  water running from her upper, bare body and streaming from her 
                  hair as she struggled to her hands and knees, gasping for air. 
                  The crowd pushed in close and roared its approval of the spectacle!
                With 
                  her mind in a whirl, Sarah felt herself being yanked to her 
                  feet. The remnants of the blouse were stripped for her arms 
                  and Sarah felt a leather collar being attached around her neck 
                  her wrists were attached to a stick which was slipped through 
                  a ring in the back of the collar, holding her arms, bent at 
                  the elbow, uncomfortably parallel with her shoulders and about 
                  6 inches outside of them. As the crowd roared even louder, Sarah 
                  kicked at a man who approached her with a knife. The agile man 
                  easily stepped aside, cutting the rope that served as a belt 
                  in the process. Freed, the dungarees fell to pool at Sarah's 
                  ankles, nearly tripping her as she struggled! 
                Sarah's 
                  shoulders slumped and the fight flew from her. Suddenly she 
                  realized the futility, the total helplessness of her situation. 
                  She felt the humiliation of standing totally naked, bound, disheveled 
                  and disfigured from weeks of near starvation in the dank ship's 
                  cabin in front of a multitude of gawking, cheering strangers... 
                  common laborers and vagrants! Never in her life had Sarah felt 
                  so totally defeated and hopeless.
                The 
                  defeat was only temporary, though! When one of the men stepped 
                  toward her, Sarah twisted her shoulders, trying to hit the man 
                  with the stick. He deftly evaded her simply by bending back 
                  at the waist, reaching to catch her forearm in his hand. Her 
                  ankles still tangled in the dungarees, her body twisting, Sarah 
                  was kept from falling only by the man's support. Still, she 
                  was not ready to surrender. When an ankle was freed, she kicked 
                  at the man, catching him harmlessly in his shin. The crowds 
                  roared again, it was like watching prizefighters, reacting to 
                  each move or blow landed! Except this starved, naked, pale bound 
                  woman was no match for any man who lived for close in battle!
                The 
                  towering onyx man shouted some commands when he grew weary of 
                  the circus... and Sarah was again tripped, falling on her chest 
                  on the wharf. She felt her ankles being bound and then her back 
                  painfully arched, legs bent upward and back at the knees as 
                  the end of the rope was tied to the back of the collar. Sarah 
                  had seen calves and hogs tied like this... and she realized 
                  she was being treated no differently then the goats being herded 
                  close by. Except the crowd was enjoying the show! A calm rage 
                  set in... these creatures would pay for her humiliation! Her 
                  degradation! She was still Lady Sarah Arlington. That would 
                  never change.
                Sarah 
                  felt herself being tossed up into the air, and then landing 
                  over the shoulder of the ebony mountain. The crowd turned back 
                  to their work as he carried her toward the shoreline. For most, 
                  the comedy was over. For Sarah, a new and very different episode 
                  of her life was just beginning!
                *****
                Sarah 
                  was carried, like a sack of potatoes, off of the wharf and up 
                  the hillside to a large building... a warehouse it appeared. 
                  Some of the crowds in the street paused to watch as this pale, 
                  naked woman was easily carried by the towering onyx man... but 
                  it all seemed to be nothing more than an idle curiosity for 
                  them. It was much cooler inside the building, and much darker. 
                  Sarah's eyes had not yet adjusted when she was lifted off the 
                  man's shoulder and dropped unceremoniously, chest down, on the 
                  very dusty floor. The first thing Sarah saw when her eyes adjusted 
                  were the sandaled feet of another dark skinned man and the hems 
                  of what appeared to be richly colored flowing robes.
                Sarah 
                  arched her head back to look up at the man... who was staring 
                  calmly down at her... his expression serious, his eyes intense. 
                  Although she could not see him clearly from this angle, this 
                  man did not look fierce like the other... and perhaps not as 
                  large or tall... but he looked intense. Sarah recognized him 
                  as man in a position of power... leadership. This was the sort 
                  of man Sarah had manipulated for years. Even bound and degraded... 
                  lying naked on the floor at his feet, Sarah felt her confidence 
                  return... felt herself gaining an edge.
                After 
                  only a few moments, Sarah hissed up to him "Release me 
                  you cur!" She did not think that the man standing over 
                  her most likely would not be able to understand her.
                "Why?" 
                  he asked firmly, with no change in his expression or eyes. He 
                  seemed disinterested if not amused.
                "Who 
                  are you?" Sarah demanded.
                His 
                  voice was cold, almost distracted... with a hint of strange 
                  accent when he replied. "I am called The Falcon."
                Trying 
                  to twist free, still looking uncomfortably up at him, Sarah 
                  spat out "I demand to be set free you bastard!"
                The 
                  corners of his mouth turned up only slightly as he listened, 
                  replying calmly, his voice slightly lowered. "You are able 
                  to demand nothing."
                Again 
                  struggling, "Do you know who I am? I am Lady Sarah Arlington 
                  and you will release me now!"
                At 
                  this the man's eyed flicked, his smile became sinister. "Here 
                  you are no one, nothing. And I will do with you as I wish."
                Sarah 
                  felt her rage growing and she spat out "I am Lady Sarah 
                  Arlington, a woman of stature!'
                Falcon 
                  took one half step closer, making himself look even taller and 
                  more formidable as he stared down at her. She had to arch her 
                  back and neck more to look up at him. In a commanding voice, 
                  tinged with anger, Falcon replied "Here you have no history, 
                  no future but what I decide. Here you are no one, and you are 
                  nothing but what I decide you to be. You get of do nothing but 
                  what I allow you to do. Here you are no lady. Here, you are 
                  only what I decide you to be!"
                Sarah 
                  tried to roll to her side to glare up at him, feeling the dust 
                  caking against her bare front, from her breasts to her thighs. 
                  When she was unable to do even this, Sarah made another try. 
                  "I am a Lady, Lady Sarah and you will release me, treat 
                  me with the respect I deserve!"
                Falcon 
                  laughed at her, standing over her, putting a sandaled foot on 
                  her shoulder to keep her as he wished. Sarah had to contort 
                  herself to look up at him. And he spoke in a deep, firm, commanding 
                  voice. "You are what you are to me, all that has any use 
                  to me. As a horse is called horse, a sow called sow, you will 
                  be called what you are. And you will be called...
                Cunt!"
                "Every 
                  man, even the beggar on the street, even whores on the docks 
                  will know you and call you for what you are... a cunt! And any 
                  that I allow will use you for what you are... all that you are... 
                  the ONLY thing you are... a cunt! And you can expect to be heavily 
                  used for what you are."
                Sarah's 
                  mind reeled at what she was hearing, and she turned to her instincts 
                  to begin working her way out of this dire predicament - those 
                  things she had done so often and well over the years. Feeling 
                  panic underneath, but appearing calm Sarah almost purred "Then 
                  use me as you will, Sir Falcon. I choose to be with you."
                Falcon 
                  laughed, then stared down at her, his voice cutting and cold. 
                  Each word slapped at Sarah much harder than the backhand she 
                  had received earlier. "You are mine, Cunt. I own you like 
                  I own a chicken or an ass. Every breath you take, each minute 
                  you exist is mine. And you will be used for what you are... 
                  but you are not worthy of being used by me, Cunt." Then 
                  The Falcon looked past her, to the man standing behind her, 
                  the mountainous man who had brought her here and Falcon spoke 
                  to him, in a commanding tone, in the gibberish she had heard 
                  earlier.
                Immediately 
                  Sarah felt herself lifted roughly from the floor and turned 
                  so she was facing this man of incredible strength. She could 
                  see that he had dropped his pants... and his black cock stood 
                  out, gorged... enraged! Even though she was still hog tied, 
                  he pushed her down onto his shaft, forcing her legs apart, tearing 
                  into her. Sarah was not ready to take a man... she was dry. 
                  And this mountain of a man was as enormous in his manhood as 
                  he was in his height or strength. She cried out in pain. He 
                  was savage, relentless as he lifted and pushed her down ripping 
                  and tearing at her, crashing against her as he bucked his hips, 
                  hurting her arms where he gripped them tightly. Sarah felt as 
                  though her insides were being ripped apart as this huge man 
                  raped her, grunting and snorting like a wild bore until finally 
                  he exploded in her, filling her. He then pulled her off his 
                  cock and literally dropped her, face down back on the floor, 
                  driving the wind from her as the dust flew. Sarah nearly lost 
                  consciousness, feeling like every bone in her body was broken! 
                  When she raised her head to seek help, The Falcon was gone and 
                  the mountain of a man was walking away, his naked black buttocks 
                  and thighs rippling with every step.
                Sarah 
                  cried out. The man looked back over his shoulder, a look of 
                  utter contempt and, in a heavy accent, mumbled a single word 
                  - "CUNT!"
                Naked 
                  and bound, crying as she never had before, raped and broken, 
                  filthy dirty - Lady Sarah Arlington, seductress of powerful 
                  men lay on the warehouse floor - alone in the world.
