TICKLE TOWERS (part 3) Malachi walked slowly, menacingly to where Bethany lay. He glanced admiringly at her bikini-clad form, softly caressing her stomach, causing Bethany to titter softly, despite the fact that the very sight of this man frightened her. Malachi was a muscular man of 6'5", with dark, piercing eyes, gleaming white teeth, and cocoa-colored skin. His short dreadlocks seemed to dance as he spoke. "Ticklish there, hmm?" Bethany was entranced by his british accent. "Good. You look like a good victim." He continued. "It is my hope that you will not only learn a lesson, but that you will love it!" Bethany cleared her throat. "I hate to be tickled -- I've always hated it. I don't mean to be disrespectful, but I think it is a waste of both our time to go on with this nonsense." She feared Malachi would become enraged, yet he seemed somewhat amused. "Oh? And why is that? " he queried. "Because," she replied with confidence, "tickling is such a childish game! Really, it isn't something for mature adults, especially to be so consumed with it like these people are -- such as yourself." Malachi stared at her. He liked her spunk, and told her so. She smiled to herself. You've got him eating out of your hands, baby, she thought silently. Malachi called for Suki. He asked about Jason. "He's ok, just a little weak." she replied. "Good. I'll need your assistance with this one. She will get it worse than he did." Bethany's eyes widened. "I thought you liked my spunk!" she wailed. "Oh, I do!" he chuckled. "I always spare no torture for those I really like! Suki, better get Beverly and Cinnamon to assist." Suki left the room and Malachi untied Bethany. "Now, let's make this as easy on yourself as possible, Miss Chamberlain. Don't get any funny ideas about trying to run away, or struggling when I carry you." He carried her in his arms effortlessly, his rippling biceps glistening with perspiration. Suki returned with two beautiful young women, a blonde and a brunette, each with long fingernails, thought Bethany ruefully. "Beverly, Jasmine, where is Cinnamon?" bellowed Malachi. "Here I am," purred a gorgeous redhead, baring the longest nails Bethany had ever seen on a person. She knew these women were going to tickle-torture her beyond her worst imagination! "I thought you might be fatigued, Malachi, and would prefer to instruct us as to what you want. Ashleigh has told me all about her cousin, and I would love a crack at her." Malachi smiled slyly. "Yes. I am a bit tired. The four of you may begin , according to my instructions, and I'll jump in when I feel stronger." Bethany was restrained on the wall, where Jason had been tortured minutes earlier. The four women walked up to her, and Bethany pleaded, "No, please!" "Never learn, do ya, sweetie?" Cinnamon said rhetorically. They proceeded as ordered by Malachi. Beverly stood on a step ladder near Bethany's right side. She bared her long nails and started lightly scraping them under Bethany's right armpit. Bethany was extremely ticklish there, and burst into a fit of giggles. "Stop! Please!" she gasped, but Beverly was only beginning. She tickled Bethany all over the right side of her body, except for the leg and foot. Bethany shook all over. Her giggles were now hysterical laughter. "Oh god, please, " she cried. Beverly tickled Bethany's right side with the nails of her right hand. With her left she slowly, tortuously tormented Bethany's right hip, which drove her wild with laughter. Bethany couldn't stop laughing, and tears fell down her face. Jasmine stood on a stepladder on Bethany's left. She bared her long nails and started scraping them along Bethany's left armpit, neck, ribs and hip, causing Bethany to thrash her head from side to side. This was too much for her to take! Being tickled by two people was beyond what she thought she could bear! But there was more. Suki placed her hands on Bethany's knees and said, "Beg me to tickle your knees, Beth." Bethany couldn't stop laughing, so Suki shouted, "Disobeying an order? My, you are dense! Ashleigh tells me that the knees are one of your torture zones. I give you one last chance. Beg me to tickle your knees, Bethany!" "Never!" Bethany yelled defiantly. Suki swiftly ran her fingers under Bethany's knees, thighs and calves, causing Bethany to shriek loudly. She begged for mercy, but Malachi ordered more hellacious tickling. The three women were ruthless in their torture, scraping their nails over every inch of Bethany's ticklish body. Even though 45 minutes of the infernal tickling had passed, it was to continue. Cinnamon was anxious for her turn. She told the other three to cease their tickling. She then looked lovingly at Bethany's vulnerable tummy, exposed for anyone to tickle at will. Cinnamon took her index finger and scraped her nail across Bethany's stomach, "writing," "Bethany is a bad girl." ten times. Cinnamon then tickled the small of Bethany's back, a spot Bethany didn't even realize was ticklish causing her to shriek again. More tears flowed, and Cinnamon laughed, saying, "I guess you're really touched, huh? Here, have some more!" Cinnamon increased the torture, by scraping all ten nails all over Bethany, in lightning-fast motion, then instructed the other three to continue where they left off! Bethany was hoarse from the laughing/crying. She had been tickled non-stop for 75 minutes, and her lungs ached from the laughter. While Cinnamon tickled her tummy/ribs, Jasmine tickled Bethany's left underarm and hip, Beverly tickled Bethany's right underarm and hip, and Suki tickled her knees, thighs and calves. Another 15 minutes passed, and Bethany couldn't utter a sound now. Malachi decided to make his move. He knelt at Bethany's feet and started tickling her feet. While he did this he sucked her toes, taking them in his mouth and swirling his tongue around her toes. Bethany tried to scream, but her laughter came out in whimpers. The combined torture of five people was too much for Bethany to take. She passed out after the 127 minute of ticklish torture ! "Over two hours," Malachi said in admiration. "She is one of us now!" cooed Suki. Malachi smiled. "Not quite. If she passes the final test -- she is one of us. Take her and prepare her for tomorrow." He smiled deviously. What would happen to Bethany tomorrow? Tune in for the next installment of TICKLE TOWERS!
