Rule 12 - Lumen

DRESS FOR THE WEATHER.

" L et me go!" I struggled against Tobias's hold. He had one hand wrapped around my throat, and the other was sliding down my torso, heading to my groin. His fingers slid under the band of my pajamas and went down to my heat. Expertly, he parted my lips and leaned into me.

"Are you wet from before, or did this just happen?"

"You bastard!" I snarled as he pushed a finger inside me and swirled my wetness around my clit, eliciting a moan from my throat. I should be sore, worn out, and too sensitive, but I wasn't. I needed more.

Suddenly, he removed his hands and pushed me forward. I was unprepared and threw my hands out in front of me to catch myself, landing on all fours on the freezing cold ice. My shoulders were pushed back and I bit my lip, trying to not collapse from the pain. My wound was wide open and bleeding, causing silent tears to fall down my face onto the ice.

A second later, Tobias was directly behind me, his hand placed firmly on my lower back."What are you doing?" I tried to scurry further onto the ice, but he grabbed my top and held me in place. "It's cold, please!"

"No. You're going to fucking see why I did what I did." Tobias leaned over me, pressing his warm body to my shivering one. His hand went around and a cell phone was placed on the ice, directly under my head. My stomach tightened as I saw the familiar video. It was the same one Neve had shown me.

"I don't want to watch this again, please, let me go. I'm going to get frostbite!" I pleaded with him, but I was ignored. Instead, he pushed Play and then turned up the volume.

"Neve didn't show you the full video, with audio."

Realizing he wasn't going to let me go, I shifted my hands, tugging down the shirt to try to cover my exposed skin, and stared down at the screen showing my family's last moments.

"She'll be out soon," Tauren said. "The photo session was for two hours."

My chin trembled, hearing her voice for the first time since her death. Poor Tauren.

"We did what you asked. Gave her one last good day," Shy said.

"Good. And the life insurance policy is good to go. Twenty million total," Dad boasted.

Life insurance? What was he talking about.

"I hate this. Do we have to kill her?" Shy pouted, stomping her foot. "I've heard of others not killing people to do it. Some just stab themselves. This streamer I watch did it?—"

"No." Dad shut her down. "Your mother and I are too old to do the ritual that way. We'll die in the process. The Reanimator requires younger blood. We discussed this already. Lumen is the way to go."

"It just sucks that it has to be her," Tauren added. "Can't we just kill a member of the unhoused?"

"The unhoused? No, Tauren, sweetie." Dad went to her, putting his hands on my older sister. "We've spent a full year planning this. We gave your sister one last good day. She's had food she loves, presents, and something fun that you picked out for her. Now we're going to take her home and do what has to be done."

What was my dad saying? He'd planned on killing me?

"Keep watching, Lumen," Tobias said, a hint of warning in his voice. It was then that I noticed his groin was pressed against my ass, his hands on my hips. They were slowly caressing my sides. "I want you to see exactly what happened that afternoon."

I didn't, but I had to know. I sniffled, wiped my tears, and kept watching.

"Okay, okay. You're right, Daddy. We did plan this for so long. We can't go back now."

Tobias's hands explored my body lazily. I found myself arching my back and pushing back against him.

"Keep watching," he reminded me as my family sat down on a bench and discussed methods of killing me. Slowly, he pulled my pajama pants down to my thighs and parted my legs. I didn't fight him, instead, I raised my ass to him. A moment later, I heard the tinkling of his belt being undone, and soon his cock head was at my entrance.

"You're so cold," he muttered.

"I know," I said, my teeth chattering.

"Watch. Those are the real bastards, not me." Slowly, Tobias pushed inside me, causing me to gasp at the invasion. It was so tight, it hurt. "Ssshhh..." he tried to soothe me.

"Tobias, you won't fit!"

"Yes, I will. Are you doing as told?"

I looked down just as Tobias appeared from around the corner.

"Were you talking about Lumen?" he demanded in the video to my parents.

Dad stood first, then Mom and my sisters.

"Who are you?" Dad demanded. "Get out of here."

"You're going to kill her?" Tobias asked, and Dad chuckled.

"You're too young to understand, kid. Get out of here before I call security or something. You don't know who you're talking to."

As I focused on the video, Tobias pulled slowly out of me, and then pushed back in. I was gasping, and wincing, but... it felt good. He was pushing against something inside of me that needed pushed.

"Tobias," I moaned, pressing my aching pussy into him. He growled and began thrusting at a more even pace. My orgasm was building at an alarming rate.

"Lumen," he growled.

I looked down again, just in time to see Tobias pulling his switchblade from his pocket.

"I can't allow you to do that."

Dad put his hands up and Mom and my sisters hid behind him.

"You don't know what you're doing, son. They'll find you. You'll go to prison."

Tobias lunged, plunging the knife deep into my father's chest. Dad dropped instantly, and Tobias moved to Mom, slashing her stomach and then her neck. Shy and Tauren tried to run, but he quickly caught them, dragged them back, and ended their lives quick. All the while I was watching my family be massacred, the man who had done it was plunging his cock deep inside me.

I closed my eyes and focused on how good it felt. Tobias reached around and cupped my breasts, pinching my rigid nipples.

"Do you understand now why I did what I did? I had to save you, Lumen. They didn't love you, but I did. I still do. You were mine then, and you're mine now. I'll do anything for you."

He spoke as he thrust, each new sentence sending me into more and more delirious pleasure.

"I can't live without you. That's why I came. We're getting out of here, and you're coming with me."

"Where?" I asked, not really caring, but I was curious. At this point, my body was so boiling and on the edge of ultimate orgasm, I would agree to just about anything right now.

"You'll see," he said. "I know you're close. Come on, be a good girl, Lumen, and drench my cock. Come, baby."

"Harder," I panted. He listened, and within three hard thrusts, I was shoved over the edge and I screamed as my body erupted and shook as my orgasm flooded my system with pleasure.

Tobias moved slow, allowing me to come down, and then he returned to his feverish pace until he suddenly stiffened and groaned loudly, his own release coming. He pumped himself into my wanting flesh. He removed himself from me and pulled my pants up, grabbing his cell phone.

"Do you understand now? I'd just found you, I wasn't going to let them take you from me."

I threw my arms around him. "And now they never will."

While it wasn't conventional, I was happy we'd found each other again. He wasn't my villain; he was my hero. And he was right, I was his now. I wanted that just as much as he did.

"They might not have taken you, but that just means I'll have to finish the job."

We stiffened and looked to the shore, where Neve walked out from the trees, holding another gun.

"Sorry, you don't get a Merry Christmas, after all."
