School of Hypnotic Fucks Part 2 [Hypnosis] [noncon] [humiliation] [femsub]

Sarah moved through the courtyard to the doors with a quickened pace. The run-in with the librarian had made her a little frightened, but it confused her why she had been so shaken by it at first. Her mind tried to trace back what she’d been doing beforehand, but started to fuzz up. Something had frightened her to be sure, but she couldn’t remember what it was. There was a couple having sex in front of the dorm doors, so she had some time to think while she waited for the man to finish.

*Was it not wearing my headphones? I know that I’m not allowed to put them on when in classes or my dorm, but why did it bother me so much? I thought I was scared before I even got caught,* she thought to herself, watching as the man finally stepped aside to let her pass, thanking him with a kiss. *Wait! Maybe if I reread my notes, it’ll jog my memory!*

My boss [M] fulfilled a fantasy I [F] didn’t know I had (Part 5)

Preface: There are previous parts to this story, but I try to make them not required so you can enjoy each one as it comes along. I am in a long-term relationship, as is my boss. He is third in charge where I work, and we are a similar age.

The next morning, I nervously got out of bed. This was my last day house-sitting at my boss’s (D) house. They were home now, and I was done. I started to pack up some of my things from around the house. While in the lounge, D came up behind me and felt up my body. His hands roamed from my hips, up my waist and over my breasts. It felt so good, but I was still ashamed of my pleasure the night before. But I wanted it. I wanted it all so bad. I wanted to be a slut for him. I spun around to tell him to stop, but it was hard when I looked into his eyes. The way D looked at me was still as intoxicating as it had been the first time. Upon hearing his sister and mum in another room, he stepped back from me and acted as if nothing had happened. I was so wet thinking of D’s hands roaming over my body. When his family walked in, he suggested making breakfast. D made delicious pancakes for everyone. I hadn’t had pancakes in a long time. While making them, he was acting like nothing had happened between us. I couldn’t stop looking at him. I could still see D’s body in my head from the previous night, and the clothes he had on were doing nothing to hide his shape. After we finished the pancakes, D’s family had to go out, leaving us alone.

My best friend 37[M] and I 39[M] shared a woman [F] last night.

My best friend, who is also divorced, and I decided we needed to get away for a bit and decided to take a guys trip to Vegas. We were both hoping to get laid while we were here, and we did but it didn’t go quite how we expected haha.

Last night we decided to check out the nightclub in the hotel where we were staying. Neither of us had been to a club in years so I wasn’t really sure what to expect. We got drinks, did a lot of flirting and dancing, and ended up having a really fun time. At one point this girl approached us while we were talking to each other and started a conversation. She was really cute, super sweet, and was also visiting from out of town with some of her girlfriends. She was asking a lot of questions about us, why we were in Vegas, how long we’ve been friends, how we knew each other, etc. After chatting for 30 minutes or so she came up to my ear and whispered (well probably yelled because it was fucking loud in there) “it’s always been my fantasy to be shared by 2 friends.”

[MF] Movie night intimacy

*This is my first story, based on real events. Everyone is 18+ years old in this story.*

**I**t’s Sunday night. You’re comfy in your living room with your girlfriend watching a movie. One of those 1930s film noir movies with Edward G. Robinson, though you can’t for the life of you remember its title. Your girlfriend has an obsession with classic black and white movies, and somehow you became entranced as well by the entire mood of the era despite expressing no actual interest in cinema before meeting her. Certainly not classic black and white movies from the 1930s.

You’re lying on the sofa, spooning her. It’s a cool spring night and you’re covered by a woolen grey blanket. You’re wearing your checkerboard pajamas and a blue t-shirt. She’s merely wearing her black satin panties and one of your ultramarine-blue cotton sweaters. The size, too large for her frame, creates somehow a sense of vulnerability which was completely dissonant to anyone that knew her.

Liana and the Vampire [MF][NC][Fantasy]

Any and all feedback welcome!

Liana had just finished her shift at the clinic and was on her way home. She was 19 years old and training to be a nurse’s assistant. The streets were empty as it was late at night, but she was grateful for this. She had heard that many unsavory characters were out late. There was even a rumor that a Wolfman snuck into the castle gardens and had his way with one of the princesses recently. Her boots clicked against the ground with every step. Though the streets were empty, she was still on guard. Watching her surroundings. Every now and then, she could hear the fluttering of wings nearby. As if a bat was flying around. She picked up the pace a bit, not wanting to trust the noise but not really wanting to take any chances. She kept walking for a bit before hearing some whispering behind her. She turned around to see a tall, dark-skinned man with piercing yellow eyes looking at her with a menacing smile. She turned around and started running. Frightened of the Man and unsure of what he had in mind. The Man chased her for three streets before she tripped on a pothole and twisted her ankle. “FUCK,” she shouted as she tried to get up and limp away. But the little bit of time was all he needed to catch up to her. He forced her back onto the ground and climbed on top of her. “Get the fuck off me! HEEEEEEEELP!” She punched the man in the chest, but it felt as if she had struck a brick wall. She tried to push him away as she continued to cry out for help.

The first of many experiences my girlfriend and I had with others [MFM]

This whole endeavor started about a year and a half ago when my girl and I talked about bringing someone else into our relationship. We wanted to spice things up a bit more so we decided to go on some dating apps to look for someone who would be willing to join us. We started talking to some people here and there and eventually we did have some fun with a couple of them but before we get to those stories, I will tell you about our very first experience which ended up being an old coworker of hers.

Lazy Summer Day (female pov, nc, MF, drinking)

Trigger Warning!

While still being fantasy my NC stories often contain non-consensual scenes that can feel raw, or have realistic elements to them. I don’t want to upset anyone, or make them feel uncomfortable, so please use your discretion when choosing whether or not to read.

Thanks and enjoy! 😊

———-

It was going to be sweltering again, as it often is in late July. It was 8am and already well past anything comfortable. I had an escape from the heat planned for the day though.

“Bye mom, I’m off to Luke’s. See you tonight!” I called up the stairs as I headed out the front door.

“Okay, be safe!” She called down from her bedroom.

“I will!” I yelled back, closing the door behind me.

My flip flops smacked excitedly against my heels as I strolled down the sidewalk. Luke had been my childhood friend since he moved in 2 blocks down about 12 years ago. Most importantly for today though, he had a pool, and neither of us had anything to do. What better way to spend a lazy summer day than sunning yourself by the poolside and cooling off with an occasional dip?

Broken Butterflies (MF, NC, Fantasy, Anthro)

Broken Butterflies part 1:
Your name is Amethy
You made your way down the dark pathway. your father has always warned you of such places, especially in the dead of night. But this was the local area of the fairy forest and in the afternoon. What could go wrong? You had just left your college lecture and were just looking for a way to de-stress. You remembered coming to a stream somewhere in this forest with your mother when you were younger. You would always take off your shoes and splash around in the water. you had been coming into this part of the forest for some time now hoping to find it.
“Delilah there have been reports of an escape from HammerDown. You need to be careful!”
The words of your father echoed in your mind.
Nevertheless, you were 19. You weren’t the little dear girl he remembered you as. You were a maiden now and you could handle yourself.
You cursed yourself as you continued your exploration. Lately, you had been going further into the dark zones of the forest in search of the lost stream. The only issue is that today you had decided to wear a short skirt and calf socks. I mean can anyone blame you? How else is a girl supposed to get a guy’s attention? Anyways, the thick foliage did a number on your legs. Thorns and prickly flowers were very abundant and by the time you got to a mid-sized rock to rest, your legs were covered in small scratches.
Maybe today wasn’t the best time for this you thought to yourself as you examined the numerous small scrapes on your legs. It would be a while before you show your bare legs at college again. You sat for a while scrolling on your phone. It didn’t have any service this far out but there was still some interest to be had in it. You opened up the snap-book app and started scrolling through the camera filters. you examined her dark brown skin and almond eyes in the camera. You had always had softer features just like your mother. Your eyes shift up to the two smallish medium antlers on your head. Long enough to be noticed but not long enough to get in the way. They were definitely from your father. You took a few cute pictures of yourself before changing positions to get a better angle. Your frame is very light. Which slightly annoyed you. You were a very beautiful woman but guys always seemed to go more for the….bigger….women. This is why you tried to wear skirts more often. Years of playing volleyball had given you an amazing pair of legs and a very nice ass.
You took a few more pictures before deciding you had rested enough. you would be posting some of these later but you wanted to explore a bit further first before heading home. You made your way deeper into the forest only this time you had a strange feeling. You felt as if you were being watched. Being part prey animal, you had a minor sense of these things. However, you used to get the same feelings from the hoodie on the back of your chair in the middle of the night. You shudder a bit before forcing your nerves to calm themselves. You continued your walk, a bit calmer but walking with a little more urgency. You should just go home now you thought but you had a feeling you were almost there. Didn’t want to give up just yet. As you walked further, the feeling of being watched never really went away. After a while, however, you began to hear the sounds of rushing water.
Excitedly you ran ahead and eventually forced your way into a small clearing. Right before your eyes is the very thing you had been looking for. The river that your mom used to take you to. It was just as beautiful as you remembered it being. The crystal clear water sparkled in the midday sun. Colorful butterflies dotted the waters and surrounding grass. you quickly take off your shoes and socks. The moist dirt felt amazing beneath your purple-painted toes. They walked into the river and began to splash around a bit like in your memories. you had fun. More fun than you did in a long time and you had to make sure you remembered this. Still, though, you couldn’t shake the feeling of being watched. A few times you thought you could hear something walking around beyond the tree line. It was stated to make you uncomfortable. You pulled out your phone again before making your way to a nearby tree. you were going to record a video of yourself here before you left. It may be a while before you were able to come back and you wanted to show your dad. You set the phone down and started recording before backing up again.
“Hey, there,” you said giggling as you took in your appearance on the screen. Your long legs are now moist with sweat and water shined in the sunlight. Your soaked shirt clung tightly to every curve of her breasts and stomach so much that you could almost make out the bra you were wearing and see the faint outline of Your abs. Volleyball had really done her well. “Maybe dad won’t see this after all,” you think to yourself. You continued to pose in different ways for the camera and splash in the water. Eventually, you decided you had recorded enough and started to make your way back toward the camera. Before you could reach the phone, you saw in the camera a tall black figure in the forest behind you. Startled, you tried to turn around but it was too late.
He had been following her for a while now, ever since you had sat down on that rock a few hours back. He picked up the scent of her blood from her scratches. He was a Lionblood, and he had just recently escaped from prison. Lucky him able to find just the thing he was craving. A nice….young…piece of ass. He was going to enjoy himself.
You turned around to see the figure and let out a scream. A man was watching you from just beyond the treeline. He was large, maybe around 6 feet, and well built. He had long golden hair that encompassed his head like a mane…..he was a Lionblood you realized. The thing that scared you most though was his clothing. The light gray jumpsuit he wore was branded with a large hammer striking a nail. This man was the escaped convict from HammerDown. You turned and ran into the forest. You were quick but unfortunately, you hadn’t had time to put your shoes back on. “Fuck” you screamed as you stepped on a sharp rock. You fell to the ground hard and started to try to crawl away. You were shaking from fear now as you could hear the soft chuckles from your pursuer. He grabbed your leg and threw you out of the trees and back into the clearing. You hit the ground hard. You grunted as you tried to get up again tears forming in your eyes. The man was suddenly in front of you. He forcefully grabbed your left antler and lifted you into the air. You punched and kicked the man trying to get him to let you go. He responded by punching you hard in the stomach knocking the breath out of you. You clutched your stomach in pain as the warm liquid flowed down your legs. You pissed yourself from the fear and impact. Seeing this the man dropped you to the ground. “A bit of a turnoff but you’re too pretty to pass up on,” he said. You whimpered now on your knees as tears began to fall from your face. “Please let me go,” you whispered out.
“I don’t think so”, the man said. “I’ve been looking for some new fun for a long time”. He grabbed your antler again and forced you to look up. Your eyes forcefully traveled up his leg and right at his dick and at that moment you understood what he meant. You could see through the loose fabric that the man was rock hard. He was easily over 7 inches long and 2 inches thick. You could make out veins through the fabric as you watched his dick pulse with his heartbeat. Fear welled up in you as you realized that he intends to put that thing inside of you. You once more tried to get up and run but the man pulled you back by the antler and swiftly punched you in the eye. You scream as the world swirls around you. Struggling to focus again, you attempt to move but your body doesn’t respond. As your vision cleared, you could see the man had removed his pants and his dick was now pointing directly at you while he stroked it with his free hand. “Oh god no” you whimpered as fresh tears fell from your face. The man brought the tip of his dick up to your lips. “Suck it slut” he said but you refused to open your mouth. Getting frustrated, the man struck you again except this time the world didn’t spin. You cried out in pain as blood began to trickle down the right side of your face. The man had let his claws out and scratched the side of your face. Your scream was suddenly cut off at the forceful intrusion of the man’s dick in your mouth. “Oh fuck yeah”, he moan as he grabbed your other antler with his free hand. He began to slowly face fuck you. You try to bite down on his dick and pull away but he was too strong and your teeth too dull.
His dick tasted salty as it slid across your young. you could feel the pulse of every vein as he continued to trust. Each thrust went fast and deeper causing you to gag repeatedly as he forced his way down your throat. The man then forced his dick as far as it could possibly go. A soft pop could be heard as it broke its way into and down your throat. You could feel the small choker you were wearing strain and snap against your skin as your throat expanded around his dick. Now struggling to breathe, you tried harder to force yourself away from the man but he only laughed again as he reached down with his clawed hand.
“You’re an adorable little slut” he said as he cut along the length of your back and in one swift motion he tore off your shirt and bra leaving your wet skin exposed to the cool air. The air immediately started to stimulate your nipples as you tried to cover your now bare breast. Seeing that you were about to pass out, the man pulled his dick back into your mouth allowing you to gasp for air around it before furiously thrusting down your throat again. He fucked your face hard forcing you to raise your hands and try to steady yourself on his legs. The man watched as your breast jiggled in the open air from the movements he was now forcing you to do. As you got used to the rhythm that he was violating you in, you couldn’t help but notice the small fire starting between your legs. You had only ever given head once and that was after a volleyball game back in high school. You thought the guy had liked you but he never texted you back after that night. He wasn’t nearly as big as this man. Besides that, you had no other sexual experience with another person so this was the most intense thing you had ever experienced…you fucking hated it. You hated how you had no control over the situation. You hated that you felt hopeless. You hated how your body was reacting. You hated that deep down you secretly wanted to taste his cum. Most of all, you hated how your pussy clenched and begged for attention in tune with every thrust that hit the back of your throat. All these feelings caused new tears to fall down your face as you tried to stifle the moans that desperately clawed their way up your throat. The man didn’t seem to notice this however as he kept grunting and thrusting into your mouth. A few minutes later you could feel his heartbeat quicken as his dick pulsed faster in your mouth and throat. This is it you thought. After this nut, he will be done. The man suddenly and forcefully pushed the back of your head onto his dick causing his massive balls to smack against your chin. Your nose now deeply buried in the hair around the base of his cock was forced to inhale his intoxicating musk. The smell sent shivers down your spine and caused new wetness to form in your panties. “Ahhhhhhh fuck girl” the man grunted as he began to cum down your throat. You could feel wave after wave of his hot semen filling your throat and stomach. Then he started to pull out still shooting rope after rope of cum up your throat. You got your perverted wish when the tip of his dick exited the back of your throat and into your mouth and spurted a thick was of nut right on top of your tongue. The taste was strong and salty but you couldn’t help but savor it as another wave shot into your mouth forcing you to swallow the first one on your own. The sensations and taste were too much. your legs quivered on their own as an orgasm washed your body with pleasure. Finally, the man pulled out fully. His dick went limp as a few final spurts of cum landed on your face and breast. You began to cough, your throat finally free from the assault.
“You got what you wanted now please let me go” you whispered through tears in a hoarse voice.
“Baby we are just getting started,” he said as he caressed the uninjured side of your face with his left hand.
A new wave of horror surged through you as you watched the man’s cum covered dick slowly get erect again. This time though he was impossibly hornier. His dick was an inch longer and now had a 3-inch knot at the base. He forced you onto your back as he lay on top of you. You tried to kick him off as you screamed out for help but deep down you knew no one was remotely close enough to come and save you. He grabbed your right side with his clawed hand. “If you keep squirming I will rip out your side,” he said with a growl. Your blood ran cold and you laid there rigidly. you silently cried harder as you felt the man’s hands begin to caress your body. He cupped your left boob and you felt his tongue begin to encircle your right nipple. It felt warm and rough on your now cool dry skin. your breath caught in your throat as his actions sent waves of pleasure down your body. Your pussy clenched as he continued his assault on your body. You felt his right hand leave your side and force your legs open. With a swift slash, he cut off your panties and brought them to his face. He put his nose in them and inhaled deeply. “Looks like someone was enjoying this more than they let on,” he said looking at you with a slight smile.
“Fuck you bitch” you replied before smashing him in the face with a sharp rock your hand had found. The man howled in pain before swiping his claws across your right side leaving four small gashes. You cried out again only to be shushed by his hand wrapped tightly around your throat. He was mad now and you could feel the thick head of his dick brushing up against your pussy.
“Please,” you whimpered in a last-ditch effort to escape. “I’m still a virgin”
The man looked you in the eyes and smiled sadistically. “Don’t worry, I’ll be gentle” he said before mercilessly shoving his dick deep into your vagina.
You let out a blood-curdling scream as it felt as if you had been ripped in two. His dick filled your pussy to its maximum capacity and then some. The man started to fuck you hard after this. Any sign of mercy or care that he had previously was now gone. you were little more than a plaything for him. The pain in your pussy was excruciating. You continuously cried for help much to the man’s displeasure. He shoved your torn panties into your mouth. You taste the mix of cum and piss on your tongue as you close your eyes tightly. You just had to get through this you thought as more tears flowed down your face. The man kept up his violation of your pussy relentlessly for the next five minutes. During that time the pain you felt slowly made way for pleasure. As it cleared you could feel every inch of the man slide in and out of you. You could feel the pulse of every vein. Your pussy clenched hard around his dick as the thick knot at its base rubbed up against your clit with every thrust. You knew you were being raped. You knew all of this was wrong. Your virginity had been ripped away from you by a criminal. But your body…your body loved it. It fills your mind with feelings of ecstasy. His dick was like a drug you were forced to take and now you were hooked. Your toes dug into the ground as your body tried to match him thrust for thrust. Your hands wrapped around him pulling your nipples into the man’s chest hair. You began to moan softly as the man continued to violate your pussy. He began to kiss and suck on your neck driving you crazy all the while his hands never leave your nipples alone for a second. He picks up his pace pounding your pussy harder and faster. You can feel his balls smack the base of your ass with every thrust. Your legs begin to shake again as you feel the tell-tale signs of another orgasm building in your pussy. A few thrusts later you squirt hard around his dick as a powerful orgasm rocked your body. You moan loudly into your panties as you struggle to catch your breath in the moment. The man keeps up his fierce thrust keeping you in a loop of repeated orgasms. A few minutes later the orgasms finally fade and your mind brings you back to the reality of the situation. You begin to tear up again. Suddenly you feel the man’s dick swell inside of you. He growls in your ear as he starts to cum. You feel your womb being stretched and filled even more by the hot liquids shooting from his dick. YOu immediately start to shake with orgasm again. Just like he did with your mouth the man shoots load after load into your pussy causing your stomach to stretch a little bit. After a while, he finally pulls out and sits back taking a deep breath. “Damn you are a good fuck,” he says. Your turn and try to crawl away from him. Your legs are still shaking with mild waves of organisms as cum spurts and leaks from your pussy. You didn’t get very far before you felt the man’s hand on your legs.
“We are not done yet,” he says as you feel his hands slide up your legs and start to caress your bare ass.
“W-w-wwait….you cant…” you whimper out as you feel him spreading your asscheeks.
“I can and I will” he responds as he violently pulls you on your knees and shoves your face into the dirt. He is now bent over you with one hand on your head and the other between your legs. You can feel his dick sliding between your asscheeks as he humps you slowly. He scoops up some of the cum leaking from your pussy and rubs it around your asshole before forcing a few fingers in. You had played with your ass before, even had a small dildo for it but just two of his massive fingers were already more than you’ve experienced. Instinctively you clinched your ass around his fingers. “Yeah this is gonna be fun,” he says as he removes his fingers. “No no god n–AAAHHHHHHHHHH” you scream out as he once again forcefully shoves his dick into your ass. It just barely got past the tip on the first thrust but the pain was still almost enough to make you pass out. The second thrust got a few more inches and by the time he got to the fourth thrust, his dick was buried in your ass up to the knot. He smacked your ass hard before placing his hands on your hips and starting to fuck your ass. You laid there crying as he violated your ass. You didn’t think any of this would be happening. Having your vaginal and anal virginity taken by the same person on the same day is against your will. You could do nothing but grip the dirt and take it. The man keeps pounding you hard, smacking your ass occasionally. Eventually, your legs give out and you fall to the ground. The man’s dick slips out but he immediately slams it back in. Though your ass still hurts, you can’t help but have minor orgasms as he continues to pound you. After a few more minutes of pounding you feel his dick once again swell as he prepares himself to cum. Right before he does he forces his dick hard into your ass forcing the know into your dick. You scream out loud as you feel the man fill your ass with his hot semen. You stare vacantly at the water while the man still layers on top of you knotted in your ass. Your vision fades to black as you watch all the butterflies fly away.
You wake up a few hours later still in the clearing wearing nothing but your skirt. Your entire body feels sore as you get up. YOu look down to see the dried cum stains that cover your body remnants of the events that occurred earlier in the day. You take off the skirt before making your way over to the water on wobbly legs to clean yourself off. When you are done you gather your torn clothing and put them on the best way you can but you cant find your panties or your socks. You grab your phone and try to turn it on but the battery is dead. You would have cursed loudly if your throat wasn’t so sore.
Somehow you manage to make your way back to your dorm without being seen. It is late at night surely helped although you did see a lady in nurse scrubs run down the street as you hid in an ally. You lay in bed after a long boiling cry in the shower and put your phone on the charger. You swipe away all the concerned texts and missed calls from your dad before one particular notification caught your eye. “Storage full” it read. That was odd. Your phone had the maximum amount of storage available. You go to your photo gallery only to see the last video you were recording…the one you never got to stop… A four-hour-long video that captured your entire rape. You were too afraid to click the video but also too afraid to delete it as well. You throw your phone across the room as tears begin to flow again. Eventually, you fall asleep.

## 302: The Whip of Sodom

The headless corpse of the gazellekin slumped over its decapitator. More blood pumped out of the burst neck, covering Number Forty’s upper body in a warm coat.

The spectators all around the round arena platform cheered louder and louder with each consecutive kill, the complete opposite of the announcer who maskpalmed with both hands, appalled by the utter incompetence of the volunteer group she had such high hopes for.

“Finally, some good action!”

“She might just pull this off!”

“If that little grandpa’s daughter or whatever gets through this, she’ll probably win the whole thing!”

“What are those explosions she’s creating?”

“Who knows!? Keep ‘em coming!”

“Selena I swear — I fucking swear — I’ve never thought about your sister in that way.”

Ed sat awkwardly in a small, cramped wooden chair next to the television, finally silenced after its earlier, war-shattering blare. A deceptive calm settled over the room as the sunset spilled into the room, covering the walls and furniture in a warm orange hue.

Ed might have found the ambiance calming if not for the immense abyss swallowing his insides whole.

Across from Ed sat Lina and Selena, each sitting at the foot of their own queen-sized bed, each staring deep into Ed’s soul.

The sound of Selena’s effusive voice bounced off of Ed’s ears like rubber. She was talking but he could no longer hear her. His eyes were still transfixed on the pregnancy test waving in Selena’s hands and the two solid lines that suggested the unthinkable.

A deafening silence roused Ed back to reality. Lina and Selena tilted their heads forward, intently waiting for him to speak.
