The Ergastulum
Part 6
Keres's recovery was long and fraught with agony. The torments laid
upon her to get her to submit to Simban brought her closer to death than either
she or Simban realized. Any human would need considerable time under the care
of a physician to properly recuperate. Keres however was not so fortunate. She
was allowed only 5 days in her cell attended to only by her sisters and the
Celt. Simban feared for her own life should word escape the ergastulum that she
had abused a slave nearly to termination-her master would not look kindly on
that. As it was, Kaeso was livid with Simban's loss of control and had her
repeatedly raped to teach her restraint. A lashing that Kaeso administered with
gusto followed each rape by filthy male slaves. She spent as many nights in the
torture chamber as Keres did unconscious in her cell. Keres had the luxury of
reclining while Simban was bound suspended and endured the vermin that crawled
and flew in the ergastulum at night. The multitude of insect stings she
received was often worse than the floggings.
Andara's Celt lover knew the physiology of the body quite well and
tended to Keres with gentle massage and herbal invigoration. During the day,
when all the slaves worked the fields, Keres was left alone save for periodic
visits by Kaeso and Gylo.
"If she dies Simban, you will be buried alive with her corpse," Kaeso
scolded as his whip tore into Simban's raw back, "...or as near alive as you'll
be when I'm through punishing you." A deaf and dumb German slave pumped his
member deep into Simban's anus with a fervor that matched her misery. "She
appears unconscious now," Kaeso commented as he paused to wipe his brow, "you
may continue though slave." With a lull in the flogging, the German took the
opportunity to climb fully aboard the balck woman's hanging body and orgasm. As
he withdrew his misshapen penis from Simban's limp and bleeding backside, a
better-endowed Turk immediately filled the void and deposited a copious amount
of fluid quickly into Simban's rectum. He withdrew and moved to her head where,
standing atop a crate, he inserted his fecal-covered length into her raw throat
and he renewed his enthusiastic pumping.
Kaeso stowed his flogger and left Simban to her attendants who were
eager to take their indefatigable pleasures with their former overseer. Kaeso
sponged his sweating body at the bath and then entered Keres's cell. The woman
had stirred Kaeso noticed and her breathing appeared regular. She was covered
with clean blankets and her skin tone appeared healthy. He knelt beside her and
eased an eyelid open to check for pupil dilation. The light from the torches
caused the black circles to contract-a good sign that the brain was functioning.
He recovered her with the sheepskins and returned to Simban. Simban hung
totally motionless with every bit of her body covered with welts and cuts from
whippings and manual punishment by those who ravished her. Dry and drying semen
enveloped her face and backside and her feet dripped blood from the vicious
bites of a simple-minded Britain who sat and gnawed her toes.
"Clear away!" bellowed Kaeso with slaps to the imbecile's head. Kaeso
pulled Simban's head upright by her hair and saw she remained out cold. He
slowly released her and allowed her to drop rudely into the dirt. Hefting a
nearby bucket, he heaved water on the battered woman. Seeing her eyes flutter,
he ordered, "Clean up bitch then report to me in my quarters."
Simban didn't attempt a reply; rather searched the dirt with her
encrusted mouth in an attempt to rinse it in any water that the earth had not
absorbed. Slowly she struggled to her knees and crawled toward the bath.
As Kaeso strode toward his quarters, the field slaves were returning
from the day's labors. The Greek sisters led the pack racing toward their cell
to minister to Kerses. Kaeso stopped the oldest sister, Eris, with a sharp tug
to her forearm. Eris had physically toned well during the three months she had
spent in the ergastulum. Her excess weight had disappeared and her skin glowed
with health from time spent in the field's fresh air and sunshine. Her breasts
remained heavy with milk thanks to Chinese girl's thrice daily sucking. "You're
sister is healing well Greek," Kaeso informed her gently. "She is about to
regain her full senses and I will gently train her and have her joining you in
the fields within a fortnight."
"Thank you Ergastularius," Eris replied looking at the ground. Kaeso
chuckled, "She is an obstinate woman. While Simban overdid her discipline, I
hope your sister will have learned that she no longer has a free will and
cons=ducts herself as you have these past weeks."
Eris looked up to catch Kaeso's kind expression. "I hope so as well
Ergastularius. Kerses is indeed stubborn but her attitude that placed her near
death was indeed brought on by the African."
Kaeso's smile disappeared and his voice became sharp, "Drop to your
knees Greek!" Eris immediately complied. "Grasp your ankles!" Again Eris
obeyed. She leaned back from her kneeling position and took hold of both ankles
presenting her arched chest toward Kaeso. "I've tended to Simban's methods and
corrected her behavior; however slave, if your sister has not adjusted her
demeanor, I'll personally see that it changes or she will indeed die. For your
unsolicited opinion of Simban's methods, you will maintain that position in
silence until Gylo releases you. You will then tend to your toilet and bath
then come to me."
Kaeso marched toward his quarters leaving a trembling Eris frozen in her
strained position. The remaining field slaves crowded the ergastulum's corridor
being careful to avoid stumbling into the punished Eris. In support, several of
the passersby gently patted her forehead and several quickly kissed her
quivering cheeks. Andara was curious as to why Eris had not arrived but that
was quickly brushed aside when she saw Kerses sitting upright and alert. She
shouted with joy and raced to gently embrace her returned twin sister.
Eris feared exhaustion and loss of her pose when Gylo finally appeared.
He squatted and began gently stroking her proudly displayed chest and belly.
Eris held her strained rolling her position as Gylo then roughly rolled her
nipples. "Kaeso said you spoke with impudence Greek, I think you will remain in
this stress stance until I have had my fill of wine."
"But...the Ergastularius would have me report to his chambers," Eris
stuttered. "I'm aware of that slave-he is addressing Simban now and I imagine
that will last awhile. You have plenty of time to remain motionless while I
take my pleasure-or would you prefer a flogging?"
Simban maintained a position similar to Eris upon Keaso's table. Her
recent punishment had sapped her strength so she was assisted in being held
upright by a large floor mounted phallus. "In the name of Caesar, what
possessed you to nearly torture the Greek to death Simban," Kaeso asked while
peeling fruit. Simban replied to the ceiling through parched lips, "She
violently defied me Kaeso-that cannot be allowed-you have always supported me on
this."
"It was much more extreme this time Simban. The master would have me
strangle you immediate should he find you had killed such a lovely slave with
much potential. The Greek is not a haggard wench-she has years of work and
pleasure possibilities-do you understand?"
Simban could only arched her back to relieve the ache in her crotch and
reply, "Yes Ergastularius," although she really did not agree. The Greek was a
disobedient bitch that had only finally yielded when her family was threatened.
She would always present a danger.
"Very well, you will remain as lead trainer-after a week back in the
fields beginning tomorrow-no clothes and no food-water only except for
mid-day--you're getting fat Simban."
Simban straightened herself upon the huge shaft impaling her. Her
thighs shook from the strain as she rose up and forward. Kaeso laughed adding,
"See, those bulbous limbs need slimming"
Simban mustered what dignity she could and mumbled, "Fat indeed!"
Eris did her best to remain immobile as Gylo drove into her groin. She
could not stand a flogging and if she chose that over Gylo having his way, the
beating would be all the worse for her insult to his manhood. She managed to
stay stock-still until she felt the warm ejaculate enter her. As Gylo collapsed
onto her, she was unable to hold and tumbled down with her legs in an agonizing
unnatural position. Her cries did little to speed Gylo's dismount and he took
his time to recover. "Very sweet slave," he mumbled as he rolled free. "I look
forward to the next time you spout off-clean yourself and report to Kaeso."
Eris soon arrived at Kaeso's open door and was surprised to see the
naked African kneeling atop his dining table. "Enter Greek," Kaeso called out
as he stood away from the table. "Come to me."
Eris moved quickly with downcast eyes toward the Ergastularius. "Simban
needs to be released from the phallus that holds her and I don't think her
flabby thighs are capable. Perhaps you can stimulate her clitoris and give her
some motivation."
"No Kaeso!" Simban shouted. "Don't do this! You can't have a slave
humiliate me!"
"Hush Simban-you'll be aroused here or in the fields tomorrow-I think
here is fine-proceed Greek."
Eris attentively reached out to Simban's stretched vagina and quickly
found the nub. "Hands locked behind your head Simban," Kaeso ordered as Eris
stroked. Despite her discomfort and the aches and soreness caused by her
punishment, Simban soon began moaning and as Eris kept up the constant, steady
pressure, subsequently shuddered and gasped in climax.
Kaeso smiled as Simban looked to him through dazed eyes. "You may go to
your quarters now Simban-Greek, you will remain here." Simban slowly struggled
fully to her knees and freed herself from the drenched phallus. Kaeso extended
a hand to help her off the table. "You come with abandon Simban," he remarked
as he gently kissed her forehead. "Rest for the fields."
Simban padded away silently and unsteady as Kaeso watched her seductive
hindquarters disappear. Turning to Eris he said, "Service me now wench," and
proceeded to his bed to recline. Eris, flushed from the exertion of working
Simban, knelt beside Kaeso and began massaging his member. "That's good slave,
go slowly and lick the head." Eris complied and soon Kaeso's penis became rock
hard and prevented her lips from meeting. Eris felt hands at the base of her
skull urging her to encompass his entire shaft and she began systemically
tonguing it. Her mouth filled with hot semen as Kaeso groaned and then
collapsed. Eris withdrew from his groin and watched as his penis became
flaccid. She looked up and caught Kaeso watching her. "Again woman." Eris
tasted the Roman's seed four more times that evening fetching wine, fruit and
cheese between sessions. On the final occasion, Kaeso mounted her before he
went soft and brought her to climax. His large organ filled her beyond her
experience and as she neared the pinnacle of her pleasure, the hard bite on her
neck sent shocks throughout her body. In spite of exhaustion, Kaeso ejaculated
once again as Eris bucked. Their sweaty bodies melded into a still pile amid
the darkness of the room and Eris moaned softly, "Thank you Ergastularius."
Kaeso replied equally as quietly, "Again slave."
