Maryann regained consciousness about 45 minutes later. The position she was in left her looking at the floor. She could raise her head only enough to look through the bars and see a limited portion of the floor in front of her. She began weeping. "Oh, it hurts," she moaned. "It hurts, it hurts." "Envoy," she called. "Envoy!" There was no answer. "Envoy, let me out. Please let me out. I can't move. It hurts. Envoy! Please." She finally ceased her pleading. For the next several hours she wept quietly, then fell asleep. Twenty four hours later she was asleep again. I gave her another injection to keep her out, then began extracting her from the cage. I opened the door, then removed the top and sides of the cage. I released her from her bonds, then slowly and carefully stretched her cramped muscles until she was lying face down on the floor. Her stripes had faded considerably and would probably be gone by tomorrow. The brand was healing, but would probably be painful for a day or two yet. It was daytime and would be another 12 hours before it was dark enough to take her home. I took her upstairs and laid her on a bed. She stirred a bit in slumber. I left her for a couple of hours so her cramped muscles could sort themselves out, then returned and dressed her in the clothes she had arrived in. I had washed them to remove any traces of her ordeal.
About 2:00 AM I loaded her into my car and drove to her house. I circled the block a couple times to see if anyone was around or watching the house, then pulled into her driveway. I carried her in the back door and laid her on her bed. Then I removed her clothing and jewelry again and folded them as she had at the beginning of her captivity. I stacked them neatly on the chair next to the bed. I tucked Maryann's nude body into bed and pulled the covers up to her neck, pausing for a moment to play with her tits (it wasn't very satisfying, too much like necrophilia-it's no fun pinching a girl's nipples if she can't say ouch). I got in my car and drove home. Maryann would probably revive about dawn.
