Chapter 5
Suddenly the darkness surrounded us, but the lift did not slacken its course, at least no noticeably. My head began to buzz with bloody visions; a sharp cold enfolded me. I was on the verge of questioning the negro but a defensive instinct warned me not to and besides an overwhelming hotness was now succeeding the previous icy cold. The wide jumps in the temperature went on alternatively for an undefinite stretch of time while I felt that the speed of our cage was increasing. A kind of happy bliss overcame me, a desire to abandon myself totally to everything that could happen to me. The light came back gradually. Again we were in the middle of a large round room the walls of which appeared to be as hairy as the skin of a living beast. The negro pointed a seat to me and at once I felt I was invaded by delicious emanations, which gave birth inside me to long parades of absurd images. Then the cage began spinning on itself while wide smoky shadows moved swiftly on the floor and gave to the hairy walls a kind of palpitating life. . It seemed as if fleeting caresses were filling the atmosphere. I was conscious that I was falling to an undefinable slumber. The flight of the time had the consistancy of these shadows, of these shiverings hairs.
Suddenly, mouths, mouths with wide apart lips opening on gleaming and voracious teeth, surrounded our cage. I thought I heard their grating biting against the transparent material, but the strong thing resisted handsomely. Now the teeth were tinted with blood and were opened above horrid throats at the bottom of which were still dissolving the remains of I don't know what kind of an awful feast. Then these mouths backed away and began dancing infernal figures and breasts, buttock cheeks, pricks, bellies and vulvas joined in their chorus which cant really be described with mere words. I was torn between a nameless interest and a disgust of such a nature that it topped anything I could have experienced previously. No desire to run away, however, neither to dispense myself with what was going to happen. I could feel the steel-cold eyes of the negro studying me, I guessed he was ex pecting something: may be for me to scream, to disavow my attempt, to question or to plead. My teeth remained strongly closed on the sensations which stirred me up and I knew now that I should not say a word. In fact I was only caring now for an only thing: to go farther yet, as far as possible in the discovery of this mysterious world.
Then I heard a kind of a sigh behind me; I turned around swiftly but nothing was to be seen. Though the sigh revolving around me, calling me, sollicitating my attention. From the wall a new shadow had sprang forth, as spouting out from the other side of the hairs. As it was gradually coming into the range of the light which drove the shadow away, I saw that it was not a shadow but a naked young woman, better a young girl since she did not seem very old. When she stood very close to me I was utterly astonished to find out it was Sanka. She must have recognized me at the same instant for her lips quivered in an exclamation which must have been my name.
-She too wanted to see the countess, said the negro.
Sanka appeared more beautiful, more naked yet in this strange room than under the white light of the cliff. It seemed to me that for an endless time I had not seen her and her adored body stirred up a delicious emotion in me. I marveled once more at the magnificent shape of her hips, the insupassable curve of her back. Her breasts rose toward me, her eyes flashed with an appeal from which I did not know what delinghts it would gratify my answering back. But I did not budge a finger. I too was waiting for an unaccountable-for issue before trying to go toward her appeal. i-Don't you want to go out so as to meet her? the negro asked me. Of course I did, but now I had clearly understood that it was alway better to wait being compelled to do a thing.
Sanka had started running around our transparent cage. From time to time she would bow and her long hair flowed over her face and her breasts, making me quiver with desire. She was calling me but her screams did not reach my ears.
Her arms fluttered, she wrung her hands, perhaps guessing that her voice was not carried up to me since she was now pointing to her thaut breasts, to her rich public bush which ondulated under the soft light. I did not move.
Suddenly, the negro put his hands on me, letting them slide against my loins. I saw Sanka redden and she uhurled her body against the transparent partition, pounding on it with her fists. A large ironical grin creased the negro's face: he thrust his hands toward my genitals, opening my thighs, and he weighed my balls which were beginning to swell with a renewed ardor. Sanka fluttered madly upon seing this scene, and began to dance madly around my transparent jail. Her thighs quivered, her magnificent hair flashed, whipping her eyes, her shoulders, her luscious back. It was as if the negro and myslef had been looking at her whole demonstration like connoisseurs, and were amused by the evident intention she had of stirring me up: shall I say that, deep inside, I was on the negro's part. All the lascivious attempts of my mistress were truly exciting me but nothing seemed strong enough to free my will from the passivity which paralysed it. Besides it was a rapturous paralysis.
Sanka understood that all her whirlings would not pull me out of my retreat and, undoubtedly excited by the. ironical grin on the negro's face, she* stood exactly in front of me and arched her back. Her hands slipped softly along her body, rose up again to her breasts, stopped there for a caress gradually more and more accentuated and suddenly dropped to her belly. For a while her fingers got entangled in the brown curls of her pube but soon wormed their way up her crotch. Now, nestling there, they began a to and fro motion along the big lips, but visibly she was not broken to that kind of an experience. Gruntingly she squatted, uncovering fully her gash and opened it with her hands. I could see very plainly her tiny clitoris fully erect and the deep furrow of her pink slit, in the hollow of which the gate of her cunt was skirted by a thin wet and gleaming trace, while farther down palpitated the brownish ring of her ass-hole. While I was pondering on the idea whether what was dripping cut of her cunt was the proof of her desire or a remaining token of the semen with which
I had filled it up the night before, it crossed my mind that probably I should never screw her delicious little brownish sphincter and the regret I felt then almost made me hurl my body against the wall of the cage to show my desire to join her, Luckily I checked my impulse to go to my mistress, and I mused again, contemplating the slow oscillation of the wide open gash which now seemed reeling in the center of the two pillar-like thighs.
Sanka was totally engrossed in Eer amourous display when a slight whistling sound reached my asthonished ears. The negro, whom I glanced at immediately, seemed not to have noticed a thing and was still looking at my mistress. I was going to reverse to my idle and ironic contemplation when I got the notion that the floor of the room had started undulating around the outer edge, at the base of the walls. I was wondering what it was all about suddenly I saw: from everywhere, snakes were swarming the room and coming toward us.
An inborn disgust for those animals almost made me cry out but on that day my reason was definitely stronger than my instinct. The negro's sarcastic grin, besides, taught me that it was a good thing I had checked myself. My gazes enfolded Sanka: my eyes had attempted to warn her but she was too much engrossed in her seductive endeavours and was on the verge of yielding to her lascivious movements for the foaming spunk fid which covered her cunt was abundantly thicker and thicker.
Unrolling fheir long green silver and golden coils, the repulsive animals were nearing our cage. I don't know what species they were elated to but their triangular head, their quick button-like eyes their syncopated approach left no room to hope as to their aim, though I had yet the slightest idea about the scene that was going to take place neither about the role these beasts would play.
Their advance was only heralded by light rustlings but, when their vanguard was no farther than two or three yards from Sanka, one of the monsters stretched its scaly body, as big as an arm, dand, darting its forked tongue, sent forth a horrid hissing which tore at my ears. Sanka, abruptly diverted fron her desire to be fucked, leapt to her feet and almost hurled herself against the monster which was contemplating her with its nasty little eyes. She was so violently startled that for a long time she remained paralysed with fear before fleeing with an ear-splitting frightened scream. But, from everywhere, the beasts were coming nearer and surrounded her. She saw them stand on their tail and dart their loating tongue, all the time hissing with high-pitched and atrocious tones. Sanka was running to right, then to left and everywhere new monsters stretched their body. Slowly, confident in the surrendering of their prey, they were tightening their ring.
These are not venomous ones, whispered the negro, Sanka, with her large black eyes overfilled with anguish, now was looking at the monsters and now turned toward me with a mute supplication. We had only to open our cage.
Did I really wanted to open it?
I don't think so. No, to see what was going to happen, that was my only concern. To see and to suffer with everything that would hurt her, to suffer until annihilation, until happiness.
The rustling of the reptiles increased in volume and, mixed with it, rose the panting breath of Sanka whose flesh I saw whitening against the partition which she pressed with her body in a fruitless attempt to penetrate it. The nearer monsters were now only a yard away from us. With their head raised at the top of their body, they were on level with Sanka's face and they rocked gently all the time gazing at their victim. May be they were fascinating her for she was no longer trying to flee. The taller of the beasts did not take its eyes off hers and, suddenly, she came to it, held her hands to it and caressed its scaly skin. The monster ondulated and, with a sudden start, wound itself around her waist; now, while it softly beat her thighs with its tail, it raised its flat head and darted forth its forked tongue to her lips. Meanwhile, other reptiles had drawn nearer; some of them, standing straight on their coils, satisfied themselves, so it seemed, with waiting, two coiled up around Sanka's legs, four or five of the others, leaning against the transparent partition of our cage, stood on each side of her. I am still wondering, now, whether these beasts had been trained, whether their acting was arranged like a ballet performance.
Suddenly the two serpents which had wound their body around Sanka's legs started to knock their head against the other's all the time hissing atrociously with anger. I understood they were struggling for the possession of the pube. But the snake which was rolled around my poor mistress'waist, angered with the wrestling between its two brothers, slapped them with violent blows of its tail. The hissing concert increased with the rivalry of the three monsters. I saw Sanka's limbs turn blue under their squeezing though, still a prey to the fascination, she did not try to free herself. Only her gasping breath the rhythm of which was faster with every second, informed me that she was not wholly frozen by a nameless paralysis. Abruptly, one of the snakes succeeded in grasping, between its wide-open jaws, the tail which up to now had been beating it; it must have bitten it so hard that the blood gushed forth, drenching its mouth as well as Sanka's belly. Long scarlet rivulets began to roll across her public hush, and, dripping farther, to stain her thighs, but the stricken monster succeeded in freing itself and, in a fit of rage, bit everything that was within the range of its pointed teeth.
I saw a huge crimson star blaze on my mistress'shoulders, another one on her throat. She screamed then with a desperate intensity, as if the pain had pulled her out of her fascinated state and with her hands she tried to unwind the indescribable grasp of the monster, which, far from yielding to her efforts, tightened its coils some more. All that stirring excited the reptiles which were standing on each side of my mistress and they coiled up around her, one of them pushing its body between her back and the transparent wall, two others fastening themselves to her arms, and a whole army of their brothers swarming on the floor in their eagerness to partake of the feast. Now Sanka was gradually more and more conscious of her situation, but too many knots were enfolding her, and her screams subsided, choked in her throat by the fiendish tightening of the monsters. Now, from her white shape streaked with green, silver and golden rings, was only coming an unceasing moaning. She succeeded yet in turning her face toward me and the glance she cast at me would have softened the Devil himself, but now I was only a man lost in the delicious pain of contemplating the destruction of what up to now he had considered to be the very incarnation of his happiness. I could not do a thing for her.
Besides, the negro's head was bowed and again his lips were busy swallowing my prick. My eyes roved alternatively from her sucking mouth to the horrid nightmare that was really enacted a few inches away from me, in the other world, the outside world. My belly, pumped out toward my penis, let the time which peopled it rise and the images streamed in my body to accumulate in my balls before being pissed by the urethra canal out and into the other space. 0 the softness of the palate against which stretches my prick! Softness of the wrapping lips! Quick and rolling fire of the frantic tongue! Exorcism of the teeth fastening their menace around the hem of the glan!
Two monsters had just hung their body to my beloved's breast and I remembered that the old people used to tell, when I was a child, stories about snakes having a taste for milk. Undoubtedly furious not to find any in these young breasts, they abandoned them but when they took their head off I saw that instead of the nipples there remained only two bloody holes at the bottom of which a vein must have been pulsating since every second it sent forth a squirt of blood. That blood mixed up with the slobber of the monsters and rolled down the body which coated a net of sticky coils.
A swarming struggle was held at the level of' the pube and they vied for the opportunity of penetrating between the thighs, but the idiotic beasts tightened the thighs so much with their knots that they could not open at all. Then they bit the flesh and I saw the sinew burst out, the muscles stretch. The blood was running in a torrent, carrying pieces of skin, tuffs of hairs, abominable and mameless fragments. The transparent partition enlarged the squamous scales of the monsters which crushed their bodies against it. I saw in every detail the progress of a wide flat head, which stared at me with its cold little eyes, toward the buttock cheeks of my beloved.
The forked tongue darted out but the general struggle wedged the jaws of the monster so effectively that its protruding tongue was caught out and that the dreadful beast unknotted itself with a jump which against our cage with an atrocious sound. The reptile immediately charged again and while I was staring at it with a delicious horror it seemed that were going on before my eyes, age old battles which, in the first days of the earth, must had interlocked, in similarly horrid struggles, some of my remotest ancestors, just about issued from the seas the abominable gluey mire of which was still coating their bodies.
My balls, with this recalling, flamed with desire and I felt that my tool was stretching a few inches more with the impossible aim of reaching these monsters size.
I did not see very clearly amid the eddying tide whence emerged, from time to time, the stillliving head of my wife, but I thought I caught her last glance. At this very time, one of the reptiles thrust its head forward in a flash and, when the flash went out, the face, turned toward me, was dideously pierced by a hole: the nose had been taken off. Another head, in a flash too, stripped the mouth bare and the teeth gleamed, pressed tight on God knows what heinous scream -or was it a scream of pain? Now two forked tongues were digging in the eyes.
0 mask, perforated at last, was I thinking, what secret could yon now discover? But, at the paroxysm of the scene no voice is heard any more and nothing hovers any more on the skeleton, visible at last, but an endless swarming of movements the signification of which moves ceaselessly in the pursuing of a new scream, for ever impossible...
The eyelids, as if they were attacked by a kind of an unknown acid, were seared under the licking darts. The pierced eyes melted suddenly and what was now rolling down the sockets was no longer tears but the most filthy liquor. I could hardly bear this spectacle in spite of the fire that it was kindling in my loins. My hands groped for the wooly mane of my sucker who caressed me faster, the blazing fire which it kindled and fed in me had to ruin me up to my very bones.
Blueish filaments now were interwoven in the boiling pack of the beasts and I understood that my beloved's belly had burst open. I warmly welcomed this diversion for the moment of my purification was nearer: when I shall see her bones, was I telling myself, everything will be redeemed, everything will come out in the open for the illusion will have vanished with the flesh.
The hair, scalped by the tooth and the lubric tongues, fell down, soon followed by the flesh which an instant before was still covering the nape of the neck. Before my eyes there was the skull and the greedy darts did not linger very long before cleaning it of its brains which streamed out of the sockets. This dainty food attracted a crowd of flat heads which struggled to lap it. The rings coiled before my eyes like an incredible swarming, but when the swarming dissipated the skull revealed to me at last the white bareness of its bones. What an anguishing emptiness before which the pierced sockets were gaping. Ah! I whished I could screw these new holes and fuck across them this emptiness to animate it with a new life, beating with the pulsating of my fucking! But there was transparent partition which severed me from the other world, an hindrance all the more insuperable because its transparent substance protected it. The diamond alone is able to cleave open the glasses, a voice inside me was whispering. Woe! To be endoved with a diamond penis.
The negro sucked still harder but I had forgotten him. I was dreaming of fuckinf God. I was dreaming of piercing God's eye with a supreme thrusting of my prick and to make, at last, inside his age old dried up of all light brains, drip a little of. human semen...
My balls discharged at the very instant when the horrid struggle, unknotting the pack of its coils, let fall on the ground the white skeleton of my beloved. The negro, in his ardent sucking and swallowing of my^semen pulled me clear out of my seat from which I had watched the whole spectacle. First I was very weak but quickly rose inside me the unconquerable sprouting of a living onrush I had never experienced before, the sensation of being born.
-You were free to save her, said the negro.
I looked at him and I saw him: he was only the indifferent instrument of my destiny, and nothing else.
The lift rose up to new heights.
