Kidnapped in the Barn
by Emma Rosewood
CHAPTER 1 — CAPTURE
The rough canvas sack over my head smelled of mildew and gasoline, a combination that burned my nostrils with each ragged breath. My wrists, bound behind me with what felt like plastic zip ties, dug into my skin with every jolt of the vehicle. I counted the turns—right, left, another right—trying to map the route in my head even as panic fluttered like a trapped bird against my ribs.
"Stop fidgeting," a male voice growled from the front seat. Rob. I'd recognized his voice immediately from the brief moments before they'd bagged me. He is the one who seemed to be in charge.
"Can't breathe," I managed, my voice muffled by the fabric.
"Then breathe slower," another voice replied—Inigo, I thought. "We're almost there."
The vehicle lurched onto a gravel road, the sound crunching underneath us. My heart hammered against my sternum. This was it. The moment I'd read about in headlines but never imagined would happen to me. Sandara Wexler, heiress to the Wexler pharmaceutical fortune, kidnapped for ransom. How cliché!
The van stopped, doors sliding open. Strong hands grabbed my arms, pulling me from the vehicle. My heels sank into soft earth. We must be in the countryside. The air smelled different here—cleaner, with notes of damp soil and something else. Perhaps it is livestock, maybe.
Someone ripped the sack from my head. I blinked against the sudden light, my eyes adjusting to the dim interior of what appeared to be a barn. Dust motes danced in shafts of moonlight filtering through gaps in the wooden walls. Hay littered the floor, and the air carried the sweet-sour scent of animals and manure.
"Get her inside," Rob commanded, pushing me toward a ladder leading to a hayloft.
That's when I saw her. Anna. Standing by the barn door with her arms crossed, her expression unreadable in the shadows. She was younger than I'd expected—maybe twenty-five—with dark hair pulled back in a messy bun and dirt smudged on her cheek. She wasn't what I pictured when I imagined kidnappers. She looked... conflicted.
"What's she doing here?" Anna asked with her voice tight. "The plan was observation only."
"Plans change," Rob said without turning. "Wexler's security is tighter than we thought. This was the only way."
Anna's jaw tightened, but she said nothing more. That is quite interesting. There was tension between them, a crack in their unity I might be able to widen.
"Up the ladder," Rob ordered, gesturing with his chin.
As I climbed, Rob's hand "accidentally" brushed against my breast, then slid down my side to rest on my hip a moment too long. His fingers were rough, calloused. I froze, my breath catching in my throat.
"Keep moving," he said with his voice low next to my ear. "That is unless you want me to help you."
I scrambled up the remaining rungs, my face burning with humiliation. In the hayloft, Inigo and Dolph were already waiting. Dolph eyed me like I was a piece of meat, his lips curling into something that wasn't quite a smile.
"Nice," he said. “That is very nice."
I stood there, bound and disoriented, trying to maintain some semblance of dignity despite my wrinkled designer dress and smeared mascara. My mind raced, calculating odds, assessing threats, looking for any advantage.
Later, when the others were distracted, Anna approached me. Her movements were careful, deliberate.
"I didn't want this," she whispered, her eyes darting toward the ladder. "They went too far."
I studied her face, searching for any sign of deception. Was this genuine regret? Or it is just another layer to their psychological games? Either way, I had my first potential ally in this nightmare—or my first false hope.
CHAPTER 2 — RULES
The first rule came before breakfast. Rob stood before me, a leather riding crop in his hand, its tip tapping against his worn leather boot. Dolph and Inigo flanked him, their expressions blank. Only Anna stood apart, her arms crossed, jaw tight.
"Rule one," Rob began, his voice low and dangerous. "You speak only when spoken to. Rule two, you obey every command without hesitation. Rule three..." He paused, letting the silence stretch. "You show respect to everyone here, especially Anna."
I nodded, my throat dry. "I understand."
"Wrong answer," Rob snapped. "You say 'Yes, sir' or 'No, sir.' Try again."
"Yes, sir." The words felt foreign in my mouth, bitter like medicine.
"Better." He circled me slowly. "Now, let's establish what happens when you break the rules."
Anna stepped forward. "Rob, maybe we should just—"
"Stay out of this," he cut her off without looking back. "This is between me and our guest."
My heart hammered against my ribs as he moved behind me. I flinched when his hand touched my shoulder, then traced down my spine.
"Bend over that hay bale," he commanded, gesturing with the crop.
I hesitated for half a second too long. The crop whistled through the air and struck my thigh with a sharp crack. I yelped, stumbling forward.
"I said bend over," he repeated, his voice dangerously quiet.
I positioned myself over the hay bale, my dress riding up to expose my underwear. The rough straw scratched against my face and hands. I squeezed my eyes shut, bracing for what would come next.
"Rule three," Rob said from behind me. "You will not question her authority."
The first strike landed across my buttocks, the leather biting through the thin fabric of my panties. I gasped, my body jerking forward against the hay bale. Fire spread across my skin.
"You will not look at her with disrespect," he continued, striking again.
Another sharp crack, this time on my other cheek. I bit my lip to keep from crying out.
"You will not forget your place," he said, bringing the crop down a third time.
I lost count after seven. Each blow sent shockwaves through my body, the pain blurring into a singular, burning sensation. Through it all, I was acutely aware of Anna watching, her expression unreadable but her posture rigid.
"Enough," she said suddenly, her voice strained. "She understands."
Rob paused, the crop hovering above my skin. "Does she?"
"Yes," I managed, my voice shaky. "Yes, sir. I understand."
"Good." He stepped back. "Stand up."
I pushed myself up slowly, my muscles protesting. My dress was wrinkled and stained with hay, my face blotchy and tear-streaked. I met Rob's gaze defiantly, then quickly dropped my eyes.
"Anna," Rob said, turning to her. "Since you're so concerned about our guest, you can tend to her wounds."
He tossed a small tube of ointment to her. "Make sure she understands we can be reasonable. Or we can be something else entirely."
That night, as the others slept, I heard footsteps approaching. I tensed, expecting another punishment, but it was Anna who knelt beside me in the dim moonlight filtering through the barn walls.
"I'm sorry," she whispered, her voice barely audible. "He gets like this sometimes."
Her fingers were gentle as she lifted my dress to expose the welts on my buttocks. The cool ointment soothed my burning skin, but it was her touch that made me shiver—light, careful, lingering longer than necessary. Her fingertips traced the edges of the marks, her breath warm against my back.
"Does it hurt badly?" she asked, her voice low.
"It's better now," I replied, my voice equally soft.
She continued her ministrations in silence. I could feel the rough texture of her fingertips against my tender skin, the way her thumb pressed slightly harder as it circled each welt. When she finished, she didn't immediately pull away. Instead, her hand rested on my lower back, her thumb stroking small circles on my skin.
"We'll get through this," she said, though I wasn't sure if she was talking to me or to herself.
CHAPTER 3 — OBSERVATION
Days blurred into nights in the barn. The routine became familiar—Rob's commands, Dolph's leering, Inigo's silence, and Anna's quiet moments of rebellion. It was during one of these moments that I discovered the hayloft's secret.
While cleaning the upper level, I noticed a loose floorboard near the edge. Curious, I knelt and carefully lifted it, revealing a small gap that looked directly down into the main area of the barn. Through it, I could see everything without being seen.
That night, unable to sleep, I found myself drawn back to that gap. The moon cast silver shadows across the barn floor below. I heard voices first—Rob's low rumble, Anna's softer response.
Then I saw them.
They stood near the barn door, Rob behind Anna, his arms wrapped around her waist. His mouth moved against her neck, and I watched her head tilt back, exposing her throat to him. Even from above, I could see the tension in her shoulders, the way she seemed both to lean into his touch and resist it simultaneously.
His hands moved upward, cupping her breasts through her thin shirt. My cunt tightened, a response I couldn't control. I shifted uncomfortably, the hay scratching against my bare legs.
Rob turned Anna to face him, his hands working at the buttons of her shirt. I held my breath as he exposed her skin to the moonlight, her breasts pale and perfect in the dimness. His head bent to take a nipple in his mouth, and I watched Anna's fingers tangle in his hair, her body arching toward him.
My hand slipped between my legs, pressing against the seam of my jeans. The pressure sent jolts of pleasure through me, my hips rocking instinctively.
Rob lifted Anna then, her legs wrapping around his waist as he carried her to a stack of hay bales. I watched him undress her completely, his hands possessive, his mouth claiming every inch of exposed skin. Anna's responses were audible even from above—soft gasps, whispered words, moans that seemed to vibrate through the very floorboards beneath me.
I unbuttoned my jeans, slipping my hand inside my underwear. My fingers found my clit, already swollen and sensitive. I rubbed in small circles, matching the rhythm of their movements below.
As Rob entered Anna, I bit my lip to keep from making a sound. I watched them move together, his cock sliding in and out of her, her hips rising to meet each thrust. Anna's cries grew louder, more urgent, matching Rob's rhythmic movements.
My fingers moved faster, pressing harder against my clit. I could feel myself getting close, my breath coming in short pants. When Anna cried out in climax, something inside me broke. I shuddered against the floorboards, my own orgasm washing over me in intense waves. My cunt clenched around my fingers, waves of pleasure pulsing through me.
I collapsed against the hay, breathing heavily, my body trembling with release and shame. Below, Rob and Anna lay tangled together, their movements slowing. I watched them for a moment longer, then carefully replaced the floorboard, my heart racing. As I slipped back to my makeshift bed, I heard footsteps below.
"Sandara?" Anna's voice called softly. "Are you awake?"
I froze, my breath catching in my throat. Had she seen me? Known I was watching?
"I'm awake," I called back, my voice shaky.
There was a pause, then: "Can you come down for a minute?"
My heart hammered against my ribs as I descended the ladder. Anna stood below, wrapped in a blanket, her hair disheveled. In the moonlight, I could see the question in her eyes, the awareness of what I had done, what I had become.
"I know you were watching," she said, her voice barely a whisper.
CHAPTER 4 — REBELLION
"I know you were watching," Anna repeated, her voice barely a whisper in the moonlit barn.
My heart hammered against my ribs. I opened my mouth to deny it, but the words wouldn't come. Truth hung between us, heavy and undeniable.
Anna's fingers brushed against my arm, sending electricity through my body. "It's okay," she said softly. "I wanted you to watch."
I stared at her, confused. "What?"
"Rob thinks he controls everything," she continued, her voice dropping lower. "But he doesn't. Not really."
Her hand slid down my arm, her fingers intertwining with mine. "Come with me."
She led me toward the tack room, a small space off the main barn area filled with saddles, bridles, and the sharp scent of leather. Moonlight filtered through a small window, illuminating dust motes dancing in the air.
"Rob will be asleep for hours," Anna said, turning to face me. "He always sleeps deeply after..."
She didn't need to finish. I knew what she meant.
Her hands moved to my shirt, her fingers working at the buttons. I should have stopped her, pushed her away, but I couldn't. My body betrayed me, leaning into her touch as she exposed my skin to the cool night air.
"You're beautiful," she whispered, her lips brushing against my collarbone.
Her mouth moved lower, tracing patterns across my chest. My breath hitched as her tongue circled my nipple, teasing it to hardness. Her hands slid down my sides, hooking into the waistband of my jeans.
"These need to go," she murmured against my skin.
I lifted my hips as she pulled my jeans and underwear down, leaving me naked in the moonlit tack room. I felt exposed, vulnerable, but also alive in a way I hadn't before.
Anna knelt before me, her eyes dark with desire. "I've wanted to do this since the moment I saw you."
Her fingers traced the folds of my sex, exploring me with a gentleness that contrasted sharply with Rob's roughness. I gasped as she found my clit, already swollen and sensitive from my earlier self-pleasuring.
"Please," I breathed, not entirely sure what I was begging for.
She answered by leaning forward, her tongue replacing her fingers. I cried out as she licked me, her movements deliberate and knowing. She explored every part of me, her tongue circling my clit before dipping lower to taste my wetness.
My hands tangled in her hair, pulling her closer. I could feel the tension building inside me, a coil of pleasure tightening with each pass of her tongue. When she took my clit between her lips and sucked gently, I shattered.
My orgasm crashed over me in waves, my body arching against her mouth. I cried out, the sound echoing in the small room. Anna didn't stop, her tongue continuing its assault until I collapsed against the wall, trembling and spent.
She rose slowly, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand. "Now you," she said with her voice husky with desire.
I sank to my knees before her, my fingers fumbling with the buttons of her shirt. Her skin was warm beneath my hands, her breasts fuller than mine, with nipples the color of ripe berries.
I took one in my mouth, rolling my tongue around the hardened peak. Anna gasped, her fingers threading through my hair. I moved to the other, giving it the same attention before trailing kisses down her stomach.
I knelt before her, looking up at her in the moonlight. "I've never done this before," I admitted.
"Just do what feels right," she whispered.
I leaned forward, tentatively tasting her with my tongue. She was wet, musky, utterly intoxicating. I grew bolder, exploring her folds, finding the sensitive bundle of nerves that made her cry out.
I rolled my tongue around it, then put my mouth over the top and slid it down and up, mimicking what she had done to me. Anna's hips bucked against my face, her breathing coming in ragged gasps.
"Right there," she moaned. "Don't stop."
I increased the pressure, my tongue working faster as her movements became more frantic. When she came, she cried out my name, her body shuddering against my mouth.
I stayed there, licking her gently as she came down from her high, her juices coating my face. When she finally pulled away, I looked up at her, my face wet with her release.
"Thank you," she whispered, helping me to my feet.
She kissed me then, her mouth tasting of both of us. It was raw, primal, a claiming that went beyond mere physical pleasure.
"We should get back," she said finally, her voice regretful. "Hurry up before Rob wakes up."
As we stepped out of the tack room, we came face to face with Rob, standing in the main barn area. His expression was unreadable in the dim light, but I could see the anger in his posture.
"What the fuck is this?" he asked with his voice dangerously quiet.
CHAPTER 5 — CONSEQUENCE
Rob's eyes moved between us, taking in our disheveled clothing, the scent of sex that clung to us. His jaw tightened, but instead of the explosion of anger I expected, a slow smile spread across his face.
"Well, well," he said, his voice low and dangerous. "Isn't this interesting?"
Anna stepped forward, putting herself between me and Rob. "It's not what you think."
"Isn't it?" Rob's gaze flickered to me. "Because I think it's exactly what I think."
He moved closer, his presence overwhelming. "You know, I've been wondering about you two. About all those little glances, those whispered conversations when you thought I wasn't listening."
He circled us slowly, like a predator stalking prey. "And now I find you like this. Together."
My heart hammered against my ribs, fear warring with a strange sense of defiance. I refused to cower, refused to let him see how much he terrified me.
"Did you enjoy it?" Rob asked, stopping in front of me. "Did you enjoy fucking my woman?"
"She's not your property," I said, the words out before I could stop them.
Rob's hand shot out, grabbing my throat. He didn't squeeze, just held me there, his thumb stroking my pulse point. "Is that so?" he murmured, his face inches from mine. "It is because I seem to remember a different arrangement."
"Let her go," Anna said with her voice tight with tension.
Rob turned his attention to her, his hand still on my throat. "Or what will happen? You'll what? Run away with her? Live happily ever after in this barn?"
He laughed with a harsh, bitter sound. "You forget yourself, Anna. You forget who's in charge here."
He released me, turning his full attention to Anna. "Since you're so eager to share, maybe we should all play together."
My blood ran cold at his words, but Anna stood her ground. "No, Rob. That's not happening."
"Isn't it?" He grabbed her arm, pulling her close. "Because I think it is. I think you're going to do exactly what I say, unless you want our little guest here to experience what real punishment feels like."
He looked at me, his eyes cold. "Or maybe she'd like that. Maybe she's as much of a pain slut as you are."
The choice hung between us, impossible and weighted with consequences. Anna's expression flickered, a mix of fear and defiance, then resignation.
"What do you want?" she asked with her voice flat.
Rob's smile returned. "That's better." He released her, turning his attention to a pile of hay bales. "First, you're going to strip. The both of you will strip."
My hands trembled as I obeyed, removing my clothes until I stood naked before him. Anna did the same, her movements stiff with resentment.
"Now," Rob continued, his eyes roaming over our bodies. "You're going to put on a show for me. Anna, you're going to finish what you started. And our little guest is going to watch."
He positioned me in a chair against the wall, and then bound my hands behind my back with a length of rope. "Don't move," he commanded. "Don't look away. And don't even think about touching yourself."
Anna knelt before me, her expression unreadable. "I'm sorry," she whispered, just loud enough for me to hear.
"It's not your fault," I replied, my voice equally soft.
Rob settled himself on a hay bale, his eyes fixed on us. "Begin."
Anna's hands trembled as she reached for me, her touch hesitant at first. But as her fingers found my folds, exploring me with familiar intimacy, something shifted. Her movements became more confident, more deliberate.
She looked at me then, really looked at me, and I saw it in her eyes—defiance, desire, a desperate attempt to reclaim some control in this impossible situation. Her fingers found my clit, rubbing in circles that made my breath catch.
"That's it," Rob encouraged, his voice husky. "Make her come for me."
Anna leaned forward, her tongue replacing her fingers. I gasped as she licked me, her movements deliberate and knowing. Despite the circumstances, despite Rob's watching eyes, my body responded, pleasure building with each pass of her tongue.
I tried to stay silent, to deny Rob the satisfaction of my response, but I couldn't stop the moan that escaped my lips as Anna took my clit between her lips and sucked gently.
"Good girl," Rob murmured, his hand moving to his crotch.
Anna increased her efforts, her tongue working faster as my hips bucked against her face. When I came, it was with a cry I couldn't suppress, my body arching against the ropes that bound me.
Anna pulled away, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand. Her eyes met mine, a silent apology passing between us.
"My turn," Rob said, rising from the hay bale.
He crossed the room in three strides, grabbing Anna by the hair and pulling her to her feet. "On your knees," he commanded, undoing his jeans.
Anna obeyed, her expression carefully blank as he guided himself into her mouth. I watched, my body still tingling from my orgasm, as she pleasured him, her movements mechanical but efficient.
Rob's eyes never left mine as he thrust into Anna's mouth, his expression triumphant. "See?" he grunted. "We can all get along."
When he came, he held Anna's head in place, forcing her to swallow. She choked slightly, tears welling in her eyes, but didn't pull away until he released her.
"Good girl," he said, patting her cheek. "Now go clean yourself up."
As Anna disappeared toward the barn's small bathroom, Rob turned his attention back to me. He untied my hands, and then pulled me to my feet.
"Your turn," he said, his voice low.
I recoiled, shaking my head. "No."
"No?" He grabbed my arm, his fingers digging into my skin. "I seem to remember a different arrangement. One where you do what I say."
"Please," I begged, tears welling in my eyes. "Don't."
He considered me for a moment, and then sighed dramatically. "I am fine. But you owe me. And I always collect."
He released me, turning away. "Get dressed the both of you. We've got a ransom to collect."
As I pulled on my clothes, my hands still trembling, I felt something hard in my pocket. It was Anna's car keys. She must have slipped them to me during our encounter in the tack room.
I looked at her as she returned from the bathroom, our eyes meeting in understanding. Look at the escape route…a choice.
But as I looked at Rob, pacing the barn floor, his anger barely contained beneath the surface, I wondered if escape was possible or perhaps if we were all trapped here, in this cycle of power and submission, desire and despair.
EPILOGUE
The ransom exchange went wrong from the start. The money drop was a setup, the police waiting instead of my father's representatives. In the chaos that followed, Rob was shot, Inigo captured, and Dolph fled into the surrounding woods.
Anna grabbed my hand, pulling me toward her car. "Go right this way!"
We drove for hours, putting as much distance between us and the barn as possible. As dawn broke, we found ourselves at a small roadside motel, the kind that rents rooms by the hour and doesn't ask questions.
"We should be safe here for a night," Anna said, paying cash for a room.
The room was dingy, with stained carpets and a suspicious smell, but it was private. As I collapsed onto the bed, exhaustion finally catching up with me, Anna sat beside me.
"Are you okay?" she asked, her voice gentle.
I shook my head, tears welling in my eyes. "I don't know."
She pulled me into her arms, holding me as I cried. When my tears subsided, I looked up at her, really seeing her for the first time. Not as my captor, not as my rescuer, but as Anna. A woman caught in circumstances beyond her control, just like me.
"What happens now?" I asked.
She brushed a stray hair from my face. "We figure it out. Together."
Her lips met mine, gentle and questioning. I responded, my body remembering the pleasure she'd given me even as my mind recoiled from the circumstances.
As we undressed each other, our movements slow and deliberate, I felt something shift between us. This wasn't about power or control, not anymore. It was about connection, about finding solace in each other's arms after everything we'd been through.
When she entered me, her fingers replacing what I'd never expected from a woman, I welcomed her. As we moved together, our bodies finding a rhythm that was both familiar and new, I let go of everything else—the fear, the anger, the confusion.
In this motel room, far from the barn that had been our prison, we were just two women, finding pleasure in each other's bodies, and comfort in each other's arms.
Afterward, as we lay tangled in the sheets, Anna's head on my chest, I felt a sense of peace I hadn't known was possible.
"I should turn you in," I said softly. "I should turn you in for what you did."
She tensed against me. "I know."
"But I won't."
She looked up at me, her eyes searching mine. "Why?"
"Because," I said, my fingers tracing patterns on her back. "I think you saved me as much as you hurt me. And I'm not sure where one ends and the other begins."
She didn't answer, just leaned in to kiss me again. And in that kiss, I found my answer. We were both damaged, both complicated, both trying to make sense of what had happened to us.
As the sun rose outside our motel room window, I made my choice. Not between right and wrong, but between different kinds of wrong and between the lives I'd known and the uncertain future that awaited us.
I chose Anna. And whatever came next, we would face it together.
