Erik and Cain flank me as Gray leads the way out of the cabin and across a clearing. I make a point of scanning the area around me as surreptitiously as I can, so I can use what I learn later, and try not get demoralized that we really do seem to be in the middle of nowhere.
Aside from the clearing around the cabin, there appear to be nothing but trees as far as the eye can see.
But if I strain hard enough, I can hear the sound of the river they pulled me from… I think. Unless it’s just the sound of the wind in the pine’s overhead.
We push through the brush and continue through the forest, and I’m honestly confused. Where the hell are they taking me?
I’m almost too afraid to wonder.
Are they just going to leave me out here, half naked? Abandon me to the wilderness?
Or is this going to be some cat and mouse game, like the chase that caused me to be here? Was that part of this entire scenario?
I find out soon enough, when a second, smaller cabin comes into sight. Are there more people here? Will they help me?
Cain pauses, his hand on the doorknob, and turns to me with a wicked grin. "Are you ready for this, little one?"
Before I can respond, he swings the door open, revealing a single room, much like the cabin we’re staying in. There’s one big difference though.
My eyes widen as I take in the sight before me. The space is dimly lit, but I can make out various pieces of furniture and equipment that send a shiver down my spine. A large, padded bench dominates the center of the room, with restraints dangling ominously from each corner. Along one wall, an array of implements hangs neatly - floggers, paddles, and things I can't even name.
"Welcome to the playroom," Erik murmurs in my ear, his breath hot against my skin.
I try to back away, but Gray's solid presence behind me blocks my retreat. His hands come to rest on my hips, holding me in place. "No need to be scared, Bunny. We're going to make you feel so good."
"I... I don't..." My voice trails off as Cain approaches, a length of soft rope in his hands.
What now?
I don’t wait to find out. Instead, I take my chances and whirl away while they’re distracted, taking off as fast as my legs will carry me towards the direction of the river, fueled by adrenaline.
If I can just reach it…

ERIK
Our little Bunny is fast, I’ll give her that.
None of us had anticipated her trying to escape, although in hindsight, we really should have.
She takes off like the hounds of hell are chasing her, and all three of us are caught off guard, so she gets a decent head start.
Of course, it doesn’t take us long to react and form a pincer maneuver to surround her.
Gray runs ahead to cut her off, since he has the longest legs, and Cain moves in behind her so she can’t double back, while I move to intercept between the two of them.
It’s unlikely she’ll make it to the river, since it’s almost inaccessible from this particular point… and of course, this is all part of the game.
Her own fantasies are a flee and capture scenario, which includes being forced and pushed outside her comfort zone.
It’s a scant five minutes before we have her apprehended. She puts up a surprisingly good fight, kicking and flailing in an exceptionally realistic attempt to evade capture. It’s fruitlessthough, we outnumber and outweigh her threefold, so she has no chance.
Since he still has the rope he was holding, Cain makes quick work of tying her wrists behind her back before Gray hoists her onto his shoulder and we trudge back to the playroom cabin, all of us exhilarated by the chase.
Stepping inside again, Cain makes a point of locking and bolting the door while I look around.
