The XXX Files Episode 1

Chapter One — Brad Hammer

Special Agent Brad Hammer tried to open his eyes, but if felt like someone had fucked them shut forever.

Bright light spilled into the $197 a night hotel room, harsh against the shattered fragments of fractured memories. He eased them open slowly.

Where in the hell am I?

Brad rubbed his neck, then moved his fingers to his temples, kneading them deep into his flesh as if the deeper they went the more likely he was to massage the pain and confusion away.

Brad wasn’t sure what was throbbing harder, his head or his morning pride. He forced his eyes open despite the light, then stared at the tent of sheet covering his cock. No girl had ever complained about the size of Brad’s dick — at a nice, thick nine and a half inches, the second hammer Brad’s daddy had given him on the day he was born had never had any problem pounding pussy into submission, but in the bright light of the muggy Atlanta morning bleeding through the windows, it looked two inches thicker than normal, and felt a full fifteen taller.

Brad pulled the sheet from his dick.

Holy fucking WOW. That one eyed Sequoia can’t be mine!

Brad was staring at a fat slab of monster meat, a good twelve inches, and nearly half as wide as a baseball bat. He couldn’t imagine a slit in Atlanta, or the entire South for that matter, who wouldn’t get slippery as a bar of soap after swallowing that.

He curled his fingers around his throbbing cock, then closed his eyes, searching for a thread of memory to stitch his thoughts together from the previous night. But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t remember a goddamn thing. He remembered checking into the moderately priced Atlanta hotel, just expensive enough to give the bean counters in Division 13 something to bitch about. But he didn’t remember which hotel, and sure as shit didn’t remember why he was in Atlanta, or if he had come with Grayson or alone.

Then again, how could he remember anything when every drop of blood in his body was swelling the walls of his cock? There was a saying about how men couldn’t think when their little head was in charge. While Brad had been led to many dumb decisions, thanks to his cock, he’d never been so pre-occupied by thoughts of sex that he could do nothing else… until now.

He had to cum and he had to cum now. It wasn’t an impulse, it was a biological fucking imperative!

Brad wrapped his fingers tighter around his dick, his eyes widening at the surprising girth, then started to pump his pain into pleasure. He closed his eyes and sank into the images that were strobing through his mind — powerful, conflicting, and some of them smothering all sense of the reality he knew.

Brad pumped himself harder, as thick veins thrummed against his fingers. He eased his digits down to the base, afraid that he would start jacking so fast that the friction would burn him at the tip.

“AAAaaaahhhhh,” he moaned, throwing his head back and driving his dick faster toward its inevitable spill.

Images he didn’t understand tumbled through his mind like mislaid memories:

He was in a bathroom with jade green tiled walls and mahogany colored wood. A girl with lightly bronzed skin was on her knees, looking up at him with wide doe eyes, and long cascades of coffee-colored hair showering each shoulder. “Please,” she begged. I have to suck your cock.” Her tank top was pulled over the top of a pair of unbelievable tits, with blush-pink nipples pointing straight like two tiny bullets.

That must’ve been the girl from last night. He must have brought her up to the room.

No, that’s not what happened…

He suddenly remembered the girl who had actually been in the room, riding his reamer like she was training for the rodeo.

The memory sent a strong current of testosterone surging through his body.

Brad spotted a bottle of massage oil on the nightstand. He twisted his body and reached over to grab it with his left hand, then tipped it upside down over his dick, pouring it like syrup on a tall stack, as he stroked himself fast enough to start a fire.

The girl was riding him reverse cowgirl, so he couldn’t see her face, just her dirty blond hair swinging in circles, as her gorgeous ass swiveled in a series of swift halos. He caught her face in the mirror, the glare from the fractured memory made her look like a goddess. She smiled in the mirror and drove Brad to orgasm.

Cum erupted from his cock in fat globs of hot white lava, the first flying so high Brad figured he must be seeing things since the last time he saw seed slap the ceiling was never. But the next several shots flew nearly as high, each one thicker than the last.

Brad’s shoulders dug deeper into the mattress as his body made a rainbow across the bed. He continued pumping his still throbbing cock, milking every drop and sprinkling his splatter all around the hotel room.

Brad heaved and shuddered, then collapsed, still slightly shaking from pleasure. He pulled the sheets around him, trying to think of the last time in his life he’d ever felt so damned good. He couldn’t remember anything close, though something inside him said it was only because he couldn’t remember the previous night.

What the hell happened?

He kept wracking his brain, trying to stitch his thoughts together, but everything was too frayed to fit.

As an agent for Division 13, Brad made his living from first noticing the tiny details, then drawing the right connections. Not being able to remember even the largest details from the night before was like not being able to cum. He had figured that emptying his dick would allow him to find some clarity to think. But his head was still buzzing in confusion.

Brad rolled toward the window, and felt the heated light spilling through the cotton shroud. From nowhere, a blurry memory popped into view and invited Brad to follow.

He kept his eyes closed and chased the memory.

Brad remembered checking into the hotel with his partner, Agent Courtney Grayson. Division had sent them to Atlanta, though he couldn’t remember why, at least not the specifics. It had to be some sort of sex crime that couldn’t be explained with the same playbook used by 99.99 % of the other agencies in the U.S., since that’s the only sort of case Division 13 ever assigned.

He remembered his cell phone ringing in the early evening, then looking at the screen and feeling happy to see whoever it was. Brad didn’t know who it had been, but he did remember that the call led him downstairs to the hotel bar. He remembered being nervous to leave since he was leaving something valuable behind, unprotected. Whatever was waiting for him in the bar must’ve been worth it.

But fuck him if he could remember what that was.

Brad kept chasing the memories, then broke into a smile as they started to flow in a steady current. He remembered ordering a double shot of Patron, then sipping it slowly while waiting for whoever was worth it to show. Then he remembered the barfly, with her coffee-colored hair and doe eyes. And the unbelievable tits.

He felt a twitch in his dick at the memory of her 36 Cs, natural and full, her tight tank top pulled up past her nipples while she was on her knees in the bathroom begging to deep throat him. Brad couldn’t believe there was already blood rushing to his just emptied dick, but sure enough he was well on his way to hard as a rock.

He had to have her immediately. He said, “You do know what you’re doing to me, don’t you?” Coffee-colored hair laughed. “Of course. Follow me,” she said, then skipped from the bar, across the lobby and over toward the bathroom, stepping into the men’s room. His hands went straight for her tits as she freed his cock, and said, “Holy shit, dude, that’s the biggest dick I’ve ever seen!” She then dropped to her knees and looked up at Brad, her eyes pleading. “Please, I have to suck your cock. Let me suck you off, I want to so, so bad. I want to swallow your cum and have you cum on my face and tits. Then I want to make you hard again so you can fuck me in my pussy, and make me cum like I did for you.” He fucked her mouth for a few minutes, but stopped just as he was about to flood it with spunk, then pulled her to her feet, reached under her skirt, ripped off her panties and played with her clit right before he fucked her into…

There was something else, something the smartest part of Brad was begging him not to remember; a memory pushing at the edge of a creeping horror.

The next thing he remembered was getting the fuck out of the bathroom and running back to the bar where the something that had to be worth it was waiting.

Brad saw her standing at the bar.

More memories flooded his brain, muddled, almost too much to absorb.

It had only been five minutes or so since his last explosion, but Brad was back to twelve inches and throbbing. He wrapped five fingers around his cock while the others curled into a pillow.

The impossible pleasure from a few minutes earlier was only a warm up for now, as every jack of his shaft sent a new and sudden bolt of lightning soaring through his body.

Brad smiled, remembering three things: Red Breath, her, and the case that would change him, and the face of human sex, forever.

But there was something else… something his brain was hiding from him, and as he emptied himself again, a different feeling overwhelmed him — dread that he’d done something awful.

Then a memory flashed through him — not his memory, but a memory nonetheless. Something in the bathroom, and a note on the mirror.

What the?

He got up and walked across the carpet to the heavy hotel room bathroom door and pulled it open.

In the tub was a nude woman with dark hair and a yin-yang tattoo on her left bicep. Dead.

And on the mirror, a note.

Chapter Two — Brad Hammer

24 hours earlier…

“I was the one who single-handedly brought down the underground mob outfit that was growing the porn star lips in that seedy, two-story lab, right?”

Agent Courtney Grayson rolled her eyes and made her face ugly, which was hard for a looker like her to do. Brad wasn’t sure if her expression was directed at the conversation, which she was surely sick of after the hundredth time hearing it, or the memory of the lab and the forty or so rows of mouth pussies, grown in a sub-basement beneath an apartment building filled with squatters and drug addicts. She said, “Yes, you were the one.”

“And I’m the one who proved the link between the Red Square bombings and alien orgies at the Kremlin, right?”

She nodded, rolling her eyes again. Like Brad figured she would, Grayson finally put a stop to it. She had to. Otherwise he would have kept going, case by case. Brad was relentless on the topic. He was sick and fucking tired of being called “Agent BallGag” by the other agents.

“Look, Hammer, it doesn’t matter how many nicknames you think you’ve earned. No one gets to choose their own. You’re stuck with BallGag until something funnier comes along. If you didn’t want the nickname, you shouldn’t have agreed to wear it.”

“I didn’t know it was a dude,” Brad insisted for what felt like the billionth time. “And I didn’t know the room was under surveillance.”

“For the last time, Hammer, live under the assumption that you and I are always under surveillance, including right now, here in the car. The work we do affects the entire world, and yet no one can know we exist. That means Division wants to know what we know, as we know it, if not before. If you can’t see that, then you need to have more than your overactive libido checked.”

“Doesn’t that bother you, to always be looking over your shoulder for the very government you’re working for?”

Grayson shook her head. “Not at all. Keeps me honest, which is what you need to be when working Division 13.”

“Ah,” Brad said smiling, “I see what you’re doing. You wouldn’t say it even if you did care. You think we’re actually being watched right this second.”

Brad looked into the rearview mirror, raised his middle finger to whoever might be watching, not that he thought anyone really was. For as paranoid as his partner was, Brad knew that budget cuts meant that it would be impossible to track them to such an extent unless there was good reason to do so. Sure, their phones and computers were tracked, traced, and recorded, but nobody gave a shit what they were doing in their car. Hell, of those who even knew it existed, few even cared about Division 13.

Division 13 was a mostly secret division within the FBI that investigated paranormal sex crimes. Oftentimes they worked hand-in-hand with Division 51, which investigated non-sexual paranormal cases. For some reason, Division 51 was a respected group which many agents aspired to join, while Division 13 was considered something of a joke, since most paranormal sex cases turned out to be of the delusional crackpot variety. Most, but not all.

And it was the real cases that made the work rise above being a joke. Cases where they could help bring closure to people’s lives or help the guilty to justice.

Sex was the one thing in the world that everyone was interested in. Yet few admitted exactly how much they were interested, which meant it seeped into every crevice of life, and bubbled beneath the surface like a brewing volcano. It was in that soft, pink underbelly where Hammer and Grayson got most of their cases. Sure, they had to deal with horny ghosts and aliens, and even a Bigfoot in heat every once in a while, but those were the sorts of cases that were reported at the fringes, then dripped into the culture, schlocked up, with their truth twisted into unbelievable tabloid cover stories, Internet B-Movies, and trashy eBooks.

Division 13 had plenty of more ordinary cases, too. The sort where the circumstances of the sex crime were just odd enough to defy explanation, like the case they’d been brought to Atlanta to solve.

They arrived at the hotel just as the sun peeked out from the clouds for the first time since they landed at the airport that morning.

No one could explain the crime scene, but anyone who had seen the far side of puberty knew what they found in the hotel room wasn’t humanly possible. At least not human alone.

“Got nothing to say?” Grayson turned to Brad, wrapping up their ‘Agent Ball-gag’ conversation. “Have I really finally shut Agent Hammer up? I thought you were the man with the 10 mile tongue.”

Brad grinned like the rascal he was, then said, “No chance, Grayson. I was just thinking. I do that every once in a while whether I need to or not, you know, just to keep the gears moving.” He tapped the side of his head.

Grayson tried not to smile, but Brad saw it anyway. She turned the Lincoln into the hotel roundabout, then pulled up to the front valet. “You ready for this?” she asked, gesturing toward the mob of cops and reporters crowding the entrance of the St. Regis Hotel.

“What the fuck?”

“Cool it, Hammer.”

Grayson had nothing to worry about. It wasn’t like he would charge from the Lincoln and start clocking reporters. Not again, anyway.

“I’m fine,” he said, loosening his tie and scowling out the window. “But this is the sorta shit that makes a hard job a helluva lot harder. I’d like to know why we can keep pregnant werewolves from hitting the six-o’clock news, but this pedestrian crap gets the paparazzi posse? Is it so hard to keep simple shit quiet?”

Grayson didn’t need to say a word, Hammer already knew what she was thinking. Of course it was hard to keep the simple shit quiet. Much harder. It was as easy to clean up a pregnant werewolf as it was to bury anything paranormal. It was easy to discount witnesses of paranormal events as crackpots and often just as easy to convince witnesses that what they ‘thought they saw’ wasn’t what they really saw. And if the news agencies happened to get some scent of truth, Division had a way of burying most stories. Everyone had skeletons in their closets, even reporters. And those that didn’t, well, they usually had a friend or family member with skeletons. In other words, everyone had something they wanted to keep quiet, and most times that was enough to shut down the stories.

But stuff like this, news that got out ahead of them, was the shit that made their job harder. There was no way to control a mob of reporters.

Grayson put the car in park and turned to Brad. “Seven dead humans, all naked, in a $800 a night room, with all four walls completely covered in cum? You know the local cops couldn’t keep that quiet, Hammer. Someone was gonna talk.”

The agents stepped from the Lincoln, then flashed their badges to the cop standing guard in front of the hotel and entered the lobby.

“Top floor I imagine?” Brad said, half-way to the elevator.

Grayson nodded.

They crossed the hallway, nodded at the two officers standing guard in front of the private elevator, then rode the lift to the top floor. They sent the two officers standing in front of the hotel room door downstairs, then repeated the order for the four inside.

Both agents had seen a lot of crime scenes, some with enough DNA evidence to blind you when you clicked on the black light. But they’d never seen anything like this.

“You ever seen anything like this before?” he turned to Grayson.

She looked around the room, shaking her head.

“Not even when you worked Utah?”

Agent Grayson shook her head. Her eyes were fixed on the wall. She walked across the room, stopping just inches away. Then she put on her gloves and ran her pointer finger in a long line down a six foot length of hardened semen.

Brad muttered, “What the fuck?” under his breath, then started combing the room.

The room smelled like gallons of sex and a sprinkle of death. There was semen everywhere, coating the inner thighs of all six female victims, along with their breasts and mouths. It even glazed the face of the man in the middle of the harem, the scientist who had to be the center of it all.

They wouldn’t know without lab work, whether all the spunk had been shot from the one scientist’s sack, but there were no other men in the room, and the hotel had no record of anyone else coming or going from the private elevator.

Grayson was kneeling next to one of the women, a leggy blond with store-bought tits. The agent’s face was in her pussy, until she turned around and looked up at Brad. “Have you seen this?” she asked.

Brad squatted, then whistled. “Looks like salmon pounded with a mallet.”

She shot him her usual look, ignoring the crude remark.

“How many times would you say this guy shot his wad?” Hammer asked.

“That’s what I can’t get my head around,” Grayson said. “Several dozen at least. But there had to be other guys in here. An orgy gone wrong?”

Brad shook his head. “I don’t think so. Usually with orgies, you’ve also got lots of food, drinks, drugs, and other stuff laying around. These people look like they were here to do one thing and one thing only.”

“It could’ve been ghosts,” Grayson suggested.

Brad shook his head again. “That doesn’t make any sense. The girls were too willing. No signs of resistance. Besides when have you ever seen spectral spunk that thick? It looks like they were filming Big Bang Bukakee Seven and Eight back-to-back in here.”

Grayson shot him another dirty look. Brad said, “What? You don’t like the series?”

“No,” she said dryly, “I stopped watching after Number Four. After a while, it just felt like they were recycling plot-lines.”

Brad laughed, then held up the locked black briefcase, the only thing in the room not covered in cum. Brad had found it tucked neatly in the back of the closet. “I’m sure the answer’s in here. So do we report the briefcase to Division, then head over to Helix, or do we forget for a little while, until we see how deep we can dig.”

Brad was hoping Grayson wouldn’t think it was worth the fight. For once, it wasn’t. She didn’t even reach for her cell. “Let’s get out of here,” she said, heading toward the door. She called the Division’s lab geeks, who had been held up at the airport to see when they’d get there.

“Forensics will be here in about 20 minutes, and I don’t feel like waiting, so let’s get going. We’ll catch up with them later.”

Brad followed Agent Grayson out the door, to the elevator, and out of the hotel, happy to leave the company of six naked women for the first time in his life.

The male victim’s name was Richard Madsen, a 58 year old employee of Helix Pharmaceuticals and Advancements, just as he had been for the last 29 years. Helix was one of those giant corporations with their hands in everything from medicine to military defense, so Brad could already feel the clusterfuck it would be working the case. Companies with that much money, power, and connections, didn’t exactly play by the same rules as everyone else.

No one was willing to say what Madsen had been working on at Helix, at least not over the phone. They were sure as shit trying to hide something, which irritated the holy hotbox out of Grayson, but Brad figured the climax was always better when you had to work it.

Sure enough, the agents were expected. Before Grayson even killed the engine, there was a tall man with a beaming smile and floppy hair trotting toward the Lincoln to meet them.

“How do you do?” he said, running his left hand through his hair as he held out his right. “I’m Arthur Rothstein, Head of Public Affairs for Helix. Truly terrific to meet you. I regret it’s under such unfortunate circumstances.”

Brad stepped in front of Grayson and gave Rothstein his right hand. “I’m Agent Hammer,” he said. He turned to Courtney. “This is my partner, Agent Grayson.”

“Thank you for helping us out with this,” Rothstein said, as though the agents had agreed to help him move a sofa. “We’re all so distraught about what’s happened with Dr. Madsen. If there’s anything any of us can do, please let us know.”

Brad said, “Well, first we need a list of employees who worked in any capacity with Mr. Madsen, along with contact info.”

“I’m afraid that’s classified information,” Rothstein said. “I can however introduce you to the employees who worked closest with Mr. Madsen. I will, however, need to be present, to make sure no confidential information is revealed.”

“Of course,” Brad said offering a thin smile. This guy seemed more lawyer than PR douchebag, and Brad could tell things were gonna get ugly quick if he didn’t bite his tongue at least a little more than usual.

“I’m certain you understand the need for discretion, Agent Hammer. Our research here is quite sensitive and much of it’s classified.” His smile thinned. “I’m quite sure things are similar where you come from. I assure you that classified materials aside, we at Helix are at your disposal.”

Grayson thanked the PR douchebag.

Rothstein said to follow him, then led them to Dr. Madsen’s research team and nearly four hours of bullshit interviews that didn’t yield a single minute of anything worth giving a fuck about.

After finishing an interview with a dipshit scientist who looked slightly older than Bob Hope and nearly as dead, wasting nine minutes Brad would never have back telling him about Helix’s first experiments back in the 60‘s. He surrendered, thanked the scientist for his time, then stepped from the lab and turned to Grayson.

“Listen, Grayson. I don’t want to argue about this so I’m just gonna do it. You can yell at me on the way back to the hotel. But something is going on here, and whatever it is got Madsen killed. I want answers, and they’re going to be infinitely harder to get once we leave here. They were prepared for us this morning, but not nearly as prepared as they will be when we return with a court order. I need you to cover for me, it’s now or never.”

Because Grayson knew she couldn’t argue, she didn’t. She went on with the interviews while Hammer slipped back into the lab, asked the receptionist to show him the bathroom, then entered the little boy’s room feeling the eyes of the receptionist, a few wandering scientists, and the hallway cameras on him.

Brad took a piss in the urinal, then left it stewing at the bottom just to prove he had been there, then headed back to reception, patting himself down and slapping a worried expression on his face.

“I left my cell in the lab,” he said to the receptionist. “Would you mind going and getting it for me?” She eyed him suspiciously.

“Look,” he leaned across the reception area with his arms on the counter. “I know you’re just doing your job, and I don’t want to get you in any trouble. So you don’t have to let me in. But I’m positive I left it on the lab table in Dr. Foster’s hall. It was stupid, really. I shouldn’t have taken it out of my pocket, not during the interview, but I was expecting a call from my mom.” Brad met her eyes, and held them. “She’s a little sick right now and I’m expecting some news. Anyway,” he shook his head, “I can’t leave without my phone. My life’s on that thing, plus the casework. I could lose my job.”

She said, “I could lose my job if I leave the reception desk.”

Brad leaned in closer and gave her the look that hadn’t failed him once since mid 2008. “It’ll take two minutes,” he said. “Tops. If it’s not where I think it is, I’ll leave immediately.”

The receptionist smiled, said okay almost like she didn’t have a choice, then buzzed Brad into the lab. Of course it was on the lab table in Dr. Foster’s hall, exactly where he set the dummy cell phone he always “accidentally” left behind.

Once in the lab Brad immediately looked for Dr. Jacobs, the one scientist who seemed like he had looser lips than the lab liked. Sure enough, it was only a minute back into the conversation when the good doctor spilled a lead.

“Sorry to waste any more of your time,” Brad said, “but Arthur sent me back to follow up with a few questions. What were you saying the last time we spoke?”

Brad looked at Dr. Jacobs patiently, waiting for him to pick up where he never left off. After a long couple of minutes, and a little more prodding from Brad, suggesting he might be able to lead him to someone closer to Madsen, Dr. Jacobs suddenly lit up and said, “If I were you I would check with Ms. Monroe.”

“Ms. Monroe? You’re not the first person to tell me that,” Brad said, even though he was. “Why do you think we should check with Ms. Monroe?”

“Because Willow and Dr. Madsen seemed especially close. She was his secretary and all, but a lot of us in the lab thought there was more going on than that, you know. Then she quit out of nowhere just a bit ago, and did it over the phone. That’s pretty weird, and a lot of coincidence you’d have to admit, considering what happened.” Dr. Jacobs delivered the last part in a whisper.

Brad shook his head. “No argument from me, Dr. Jacobs.” He glanced up at the wall and noticed the red light on the camera aimed directly at him. He winked and saluted. He thanked Dr. Jacobs for his time, left the lab, and was met by Rothstein as soon as he stepped on the other side of the door.

“I’m afraid I’m going to have to ask you to leave,” Rothstein said, gently taking him by the arm.

“Sure thing, Artie. No reason to get all handsy, at least not without a few drinks in me,” Brad said with a wink that painted Artie’s face in discomfort.

Rothstein stood glaring, and said, “We have been extremely accommodating, Mr. Hammer, but our kindness ends here. If you don’t have a court order on you right now, I’m afraid I’m going to have to ask you to leave immediately.”

“I’m already gone,” Brad winked at Rothstein. “Come on, Agent Grayson.”

Brad walked down the long hall, then stepped inside the elevator and rode it four floors to the lobby, then crossed the parking lot and climbed into the passenger side of the Lincoln, Grayson by his side the entire time.

“I’m going back in,” Brad said as soon as she slammed the car door.

“No, you’re not,” she shook her head, started the engine, then pulled from the parking space.

“They’re burying bullshit in there,” Brad said, drumming his fingers on his knee. “Don’t tell me you can’t smell it.”

“Of course I can smell it,” she said. “But it doesn’t mean I’m going to scrape it from my shoe while the world is watching. That’s the difference between me and you, Hammer. I’m discreet. You, well, let’s just say you’re not.”

Brad ignored her, and told Grayson all about the scientist’s secretary, Willow Monroe, who had mysteriously quit over the phone. Grayson agreed it was a lead worth following, so Hammer looked up her address, then told Grayson to hit the highway and head west. Just as she pulled onto the onramp, Brad’s cell started to buzz. He looked at the screen. It was their superior, Mike Cooper.

“Hammer here.”

“Pack it up, we need you back at HQ.”

“What? We just got here,” Brad said.

“I heard about your little stunt at Helix.”

“Wow, news travels fast, eh?” Brad said.

“Forensics is on the scene, you did your interviews, just bring back what you’ve got, and we’ll handle it from here.”

“What the fuck? I’ve got leads to follow, follow-up interviews, I’m not even hours into this and you’re acting like we’re a week in,” Brad said.

“It’s not a request, Agent Hammer.”

“Just let me follow up one more lead,” Brad said.

“I don’t want you going back to Helix,” Cooper said, hesitating slightly. Cooper was a team player, and bowed at the first orders from above, but he had just enough balls to allow Brad a bit of leniency so long as it wouldn’t blow back on him.

“I promise, I’m not going back to Helix. We’ve got a potential witness. We’re tracking her down now.”

“I’m not authorizing this. I want you back here tomorrow. Are we clear?”

“Crystal clear,” Brad said and hung up.

Before Brad was even finished with the phone call, Grayson was merging over to pull off the highway.

“What are you doing?” he asked.

Grayson looked at Brad like she didn’t understand the question. “What do you mean what am I doing? We were told to stand down and drop the case, right? Do we really have to go through this again?”

“Yes, we do,” Brad said. “First of all, Cooper said he was not authorizing this. That isn’t the same as him forbidding us. He’s just covering his ass in case we get into trouble, but he’s fine with this. Trust me.”

“Trust you?” Grayson said skeptically. “Like that time you detained Lady Gaga because you were certain she was an alien?”

“I never said she was an alien! I said she had info on an alien spy, big difference!”

“Yeah, you’re lucky we didn’t get fired for that little stunt.”

“She was cool with it, she likes the way I swing my hammer.”

“Ugh,” Grayson said, “You’re such a child!”

Brad grinned, but then turned serious. “Listen, I want to know what they’re making in that lab, and why there was an empty elephant’s sack worth of spunk splattered all over the hotel room. I want answers, and I’m pretty goddamn sure Miss Willow Monroe will lead us to at least one. We have two options: We either head to Monroe’s together, and you help me do my job while doing yours, or we go back to the hotel and I come back alone, then you can report me to Division.”

“Have I ever reported you to Division?”

Brad smiled, “Not one single time, Agent Grayson. That’s why you’re the best partner a guy like me could have.”

He grinned ear to ear as Grayson glided the Lincoln back into the fast lane. “You know you’re not a tenth as adorable as you think you are.”

“I figure I’m at least half.”

“Just promise you’re not gonna do anything stupid. Again.”

“I promise. Something big was happening in that lab. I haven’t felt that sort of nervous energy since ’08.”

Grayson was quiet at first, but then she agreed. “I felt it, too.”

“I’ll be careful,” Brad promised as Grayson swung the Lincoln onto Willow Monroe’s quiet street in Forest Park.

“Yeah, careful as a bull in a china shop.”

Monroe didn’t answer the door until the fourth ring, just long enough for Brad’s fingers to twitch toward the hilt of his. 45.

When she did open the door, she looked like death warmed over. Because Brad was always looking, he could easily see she was normally a knockout. She was the sort who didn’t quite know it, and kept most of it hidden behind mousy hair, sad eyes, and clothes that were slightly too large for her small, tight body. But there was no mistaking the smooth roundness of her tits, the tiny waist that led to her tiny bubbled ass, or the legs that seemed to start in the earth’s sub-basement, then shoot up toward Saturn.

She looked nervous, maybe even terrified, but not at all surprised.

“Miss Monroe? I’m Agent Grayson and this is my partner Agent Hammer. We’re here investigating the death of Dr. Richard Madsen.”

Willow’s eyes widened, but not as much as they should have. Brad wondered if she’d been called by someone at Helix, unless her knowledge of the doctor’s death was first hand.

“Yes, I saw on the news,” she said, which explained why she wasn’t more shocked.

Damned reporters, robbing me of a chance to get a good read as I delivered the news!

Willow opened the door wider and ushered the agents inside.

Like at the lab, Brad thought there was some bullshit buried in Willow’s house, too. He saw three suitcases lined in a neat row beneath the window, the middle one bulging from the sides like it was pregnant with a sudden getaway.

Brad pretended not to notice. “We’ll be out of your hair in a second,” he smiled. “We just have a few questions we were hoping you could help us with. Specifically about the research Dr. Madsen was working on at Helix.”

Willow shook her head. “I’m really sorry,” she said. “But I can’t answer any questions about the work we do at Helix. I would love to, really, and will be happy to answer anything you ask if you can come back with a court order. But I’m bound by about 10 pounds worth of non-disclosure agreements. Everything in the lab is confidential. Until I see something in writing saying it’s okay for me to speak, I’m legally obligated not to.”

Grayson said, “Can you tell us why you left the company?”

Willow shook her head. “Sorry, I can’t say anything involving Helix without specific written consent, including why I left.”

They stayed for a few more minutes asking questions that led nowhere. Brad couldn’t shake the feeling that Willow was hot for him — like scorching. He wouldn’t say anything to Grayson since she would’ve thought it was his ego yelling like it always did, but there was something more and he could feel it. Sure, Brad thought most girls were hot for him because they usually were, but he could practically smell it on Willow Monroe. He would’ve bet a month’s pay that her slit was slick as a slip-n-slide, and had a sudden and surprisingly powerful urge to slip a trio of his fingers inside her to see.

But Brad ignored her sweet scent, handed her his card, then told her to call if she wanted to talk, or could think of anything that might help them in their investigation. She stared into his gray eyes with her brilliant green ones and said, “Of course, Agent Hammer.”

As their fingers touched and eyes locked, he felt that familiar spark. Not only was she hot for him. She was hungry.

Chapter Three — Willow Monroe

Willow closed the door, slamming her back against the cool wood, hoping the pair of agents didn’t hear the thud behind them. They were gone less than a minute when Willow shoved her right hand down her pants and started furiously rubbing herself in a frenzy.

Willow wasn’t wet, she was waterlogged.

She had a million other things to do, including planning the recovery of Richard’s briefcase. Followed by her necessary escape from Atlanta, if not humanity. And that was what she should have been doing, but the Red Breath was boiling inside her, and if there was a way to control the impulses that claimed your body once it was inside you, Willow had yet to find it.

Richard sure as hell hadn’t known.

Willow ran to the sofa and bent herself over the top, as if there was an invisible man behind her, pulled her pants down past her thighs and wiggled her ass until they fell to a puddle at her ankles. She shoved three fingers inside her, already cumming by the time she slammed her slit with her third thrust.

“OHMYFUCKINGLORD!!!”

Willow closed her eyes as tears painted both sides of her face. She kept fucking herself harder, adding a fourth finger as juices coated her inner thighs and dripped into a puddle on the floor. Her left hand was twisting her right nipple, as her right hand curled into her cunt, with her thumb pressing hard into her flesh. She eased it up from her cheek, then slipped it into her asshole.

Willow screamed like she was being murdered, chewing on her lip, and sloshing herself to one orgasm that fell into several. She pulled herself onto the couch, then with one leg on the floor and the other splayed across and over the other side in a V, she scraped her palm wildly across her pussy, rubbing her nub until she lost all control, shaking and sobbing and slapping her back against the leather until the Red Breath inside her finally settled.

Willow traced her swollen slit with her fingers as her body slowly stopped shaking, sending her into thoughts of the last two years with Dr. Richard Madsen and the development of Red Breath — the drug that had changed both of their lives and was destined to change the world.

Red Breath made Viagra look like a Tic-Tac, which was why Helix was pouring so much into its research, development, and top level secrecy. The only reason Madsen hadn’t ended up dead two years earlier was because no one knew what the good doctor was doing. But there was no doubt with anyone who had seen it — Dr. Madsen’s research would change the world more than anything since birth control in the 60’s. While the pill had led to the sexual revolution, Red Breath, delivered via cigarette, promised nothing short of an evolution.

Unfortunately, Red Bread didn’t yet work in reality like it did in theory. They were years from perfecting it, clinical trials, and likely a decade from getting it to market — and that was if everything was going right.

But things weren’t going right.

The problem wasn’t that the drug didn’t work. The problem was that the drug worked too well. Madsen had yet to find a way to dilute his results. In its current form, Red Breath completely consumed the user, taking over their body and mind, turning them into a sex machine.

Not only could the drug enable male users to experience multiple orgasms, Red Breath also released a pheromone which made them irresistible to the opposite sex. This meant users could not only live out their wildest fantasies, but could also get any woman around them to be an active, eager participant. There were ethical issues of whether the drug was the equivalent of a date rape-type drug. If a woman couldn’t resist, was she then being involuntarily forced into sex? There was no way the company would get approval on a drug like that.

They had yet to find a way to dilute the drug enough that it still delivered a rock hard erection and multiple orgasms, while curtailing a bit of its pheromone effects. Making men more attractive to women was acceptable. Making them truly irresistible was illegal. Willow suspected that the company’s reticence to release full-strength had less to do with morality than FDA regulations.

There was also a fear of what effect the drug had on women. There had been no human trials, but female chimpanzees and rats who’d taken the drug all died within less than 30 days of taking the drug. They had also grown sexually ravenous, and turned their sex into an almost parasitic function. Male chimps and rats who mated with females on Red Breath were essentially sucked dry of life, while the female became stronger.

Dr. Richard Madsen had been working on a fix.

It was six months ago when Richard thought he had finally found the solution. The newest strain of the drug was working 100 % on male and female lab rats and chimpanzees, but Helix said they weren’t yet ready for human testing.

They weren’t, but Richard was.

Little did she know at the time, but he’d been using an older modified version of Red Breath on himself, and had been utilizing it’s powers of persuasion to convince her to experiment with him.

Willow had already said yes to Richard’s bedroom a year earlier, before he’d been using the drug. Her feelings for him were genuine, but she never would have agreed to unsanctioned testing of Red Breath on anyone, much less herself. Not if she were in her right mind.

But she hadn’t been. So she said yes.

At first it seemed as though Richard had found Heaven on Earth. On the surface, Red Breath worked like a charm. The two of them would fuck for what felt like days, slipping in and out of nirvana only as long as the reality of life required. It was utter bliss, until the Breath turned sour.

Two weeks ago, everything changed. Willow suddenly turned into a succubus, seemingly overnight; a monster with uncontrollable urges. Perhaps that’s what she had been ever since the first dose of Red Breath, but Richard was so well armored from his months of experimenting that she couldn’t harm him.

It wasn’t until they invited others to join them that the horror was unleashed.

The doctor brought home a couple for them to play with, a beautiful set of upper-crust socialites from Buckhead. Part of Red Breath’s beauty was the way it gave its users the ability to persuade others to do their bidding. Because sex was always on at least part of everyone’s mind, it was easy to use it to get what you wanted. The doctor hadn’t paid for a single thing in months. After a long night partying at the XO Bar, the doctor suggested they return to his house and enjoy each other’s company.

They did, a little too much.

Willow had never fucked or been fucked so hard in her life. The rush was electric in her veins and her brain. She’d never felt so alive as when she inhaled their lifeforces through her skin and mouth. And then when she came down from the euphoria, she realized she was lying next to two corpses.

Richard stared at her in horror.

Willow had no idea what the doctor did with the bodies. The next thing she knew, Richard was locking her in his basement lab, promising that he’d release her as soon as he could. He had to find a cure without alerting Helix to they had done — they as if she had been part of the planning. When the doctor returned from the office the following day, she was completely mad with desire.

Willow lay on the couch, sticky and dripping, rubbing her sopping hole at the memory of her first weeks of Red Breath. She needed to leave the house and fuck; not just fuck, consume cock like it was one of the four food groups.

The killings had changed her, maybe forever. She and Richard both knew two things: she had to fuck every day, and she would kill anything that made it inside her. So each evening he would smoke a fresh Red Breath, then head down to the basement for an hour or so of insane fucking, the Red Breath keeping him armored from death.

The part of the drug the doctor never designed was as powerful as all the parts that he did. Red Breath allowed Willow to see what was in the doctor’s mind while he was inside her, or even earlier, once blood flowed to his cock and put his arousal in bloom.

The sensation itself was amazing, but Willow quickly grew hungry for more, and grew dissatisfied with the same Richard every night of the week. Not being able to consume him wholly as she had the two people she killed, was like not being able to cum. It left her aching all day and all of the night. It was a hunger she neither understood nor could control. It was if Red Breath had awakened some alien or ancient part of her — a powerful, hungry part that grew more agitated the longer she went without being fed.

Willow understood the need to stay locked up, but was growing more resentful by the hour. And though she was too scared to try and break free, she also knew there wasn’t much time before her body got the best of her mind and started driving the bus without her. It finally happened two days before the doctor’s murder.

Willow was in the basement when the six foot three inch man with the square jaw and close cropped hair came to check the gas meter. She was in heat, writhing around on the basement floor, sucking on her fingers and digging as deep as she could into her sloppy hole. She smelled the meter man outside, leapt like a cat from the cold concrete floor, sniffing the closed narrow window at the top of the basement.

Willow closed her eyes and called him to her with her mind. Another talent she had developed which Red Breath had obviously awakened.

The meter man had no idea why his cock was so suddenly hard, or why the throbbing pain was leading him toward the back door of the house, but his body was giving him no choice but to follow. He also had no choice but to break the back door window, letting himself into the kitchen. Just like he had no choice but to head down into the basement, following the scent of soaking wet pussy like it was a pie cooling on a windowsill.

He opened the basement and saw Willow lying with her back on the floor, her legs spread wide enough to give the meter man a clear view of her engorged pussy lips, glistening from an almost constant wetness.

Willow whispered, “Do you want me to fuck you so hard you fall asleep and never wake up?”

The meter man agreed, though he must have thought she was kidding, or at least exaggerating. But she wasn’t.

Willow bounced up and down on his throbbing cock as he was swallowed by pleasure. She dug into his memories, seeing everything from the time he was sixteen and finger banged his fourteen year old next door neighbor Lisa, to the night before when he came on his wife’s waiting face.

Willow took it all. Drank him down, and felt his lifeforce flow into her. It was a rush greater than any drug. There was a remote part of her that felt guilty for killing the man, but the power and euphoria drowned that part of her out.

Feeling stronger than she’d ever felt before, she left him dead, but smiling. She went upstairs through the open basement door, took a long, scalding shower, then tracked down the good doctor who had called in sick to work.

It didn’t take Willow long to track him down. She could see flickers of his thoughts like breadcrumbs trailing toward his cock, and once she was a mile from St. Regis, his scent grew strong enough to smell.

Willow didn’t have to check in downstairs to find him. She simply followed her nose and the twitch of her twat. The man in the elevator conveniently forgot she was there after she swallowed his load and left him alive. She didn’t even have to knock on the door since Richard opened it the second he smelled her on the other side.

She entered the room to an orgy, and the sudden, wide-eyed fear of the doctor — a terror he could do nothing about. He belonged to her, cock and mind, and she used it, just like she used every girl in the room to satisfy the day’s worth of lust that had built up inside her.

For three hours she had herself licked and fingered and fucked by everything in the room that had a face. Her asshole was sucked on, just like her tits and pussy. Her ears were whispered into, and she made Richard spend his last long minutes on Earth as her slave, servicing her on repeat.

Three of the girls were dead before the other three realized what was happening. They only lasted a few seconds longer, their eyes widening just in time to fall silent forever.

Willow kept Richard around for another hour, sucking him off once, just for the fuck of it, before making him use his Red Breath thickened rod to fuck her silly and splatter her with his white, hot spew over and over again. It was only when the frenzy and delirium subsided that Willow finally realized what she had done, what she had become, and what that could possibly mean. Humans were wired with two primary modes of response: fight or flight. Red Breath turned fight into fucking, but flight stayed the same.

Tracking Richard had been a mistake, but not nearly as big a mistake as leaving his briefcase behind. If Willow had only remembered to take the briefcase with her, it would have changed everything.

Ever since he’d started taking the Red Breath, Richard had started stashing cash, drawing it from willing women like an ATM. But even packed with what had to be at least six figures worth of untraceable cash, the money wasn’t what made the briefcase valuable. Two years worth of research was packed onto a 60gig thumb drive. Even more important were the 5-10 packs of Red Breath Richard kept in the briefcases’ back compartment.

Smoking the cigarettes had a different effect on her than they did Richard. For Richard, he needed a new dose to become aroused, and to have the enhanced sexual powers. For her, the arousal was permanent. One smoke was all it had taken to flip some switch inside her. The sensation had not increased the longer she stayed away. But if she were going to try and cure her condition, she’d need to get the cigarettes.

It was easy for Willow to see her glaring error in the light of a new day, away from the frenzy, but all she’d felt in the hotel was overwhelmed, confused, and a burning need to run as far and as fast as she could.

Willow was packed and ready to go, contemplating her next move throughout the morning — terrified of her next move, horrified of what she had become, and finding it impossible to ignore the burning need inside her.

And as hot as the fire she felt burning between her legs, it wouldn’t be too long before Willow was running from an entirely different sort of heat. She had to get out of town immediately. Run away and never return. Throw herself into isolation, somewhere where she could never harm another soul. Maybe Alaska.

If only she had more than $9,382 in her bank account, or hope of a cure.

If only she’d taken the briefcase.

Willow was minutes from flight when she heard the knock on the door, and saw the two agents standing on her porch. She was terrified, and might have run right there if she hadn’t smelled the pungent sex of Agent Brad Hammer on the other side.

Willow had to calm her mind so it didn’t scream. She could feel it calling to the large and well-practiced cock in Agent Hammer’s pants. She could clearly see the memory of his last fuck — a quickie with a waitress at the end of her shift, two days earlier in Austin, Texas — and see the filthy thoughts he couldn’t help but have about the partner standing beside him.

More importantly, Willow found the memory of the briefcase.

Agent Hammer had what was hers, and she was going to get it back.

Agent Hammer was the key to everything. He had the briefcase, and if Willow could retrieve it, she would have enough money to go on the run, as well as the research that would lead to her cure.

Chapter Four — Brad Hammer

“I’m taking a long nap, and if I’m lucky I won’t wake up until tomorrow,” Grayson said, pulling into the underground parking lot of their hotel, driving the Lincoln toward a spot at the back.

“Are you serious?” Hammer looked at his watch. “It’s not even 3:30?”

“Which day?” Grayson said as they got out of the car and walked around, leaning against the trunk. “Did you not have the same week as me? Were you not in Synecdoche, New York for four days following dead leads on a werewolf case?”

Brad said nothing. Of course he’d had the same week as she had, but he was numb to the travel, and the schedule that went with it. He was never affected the same way, and nap-time for Agent Grayson usually meant Brad went looking to lift a skirt.

“What do you care? You’ll end up at the hotel bar looking for tail anyway.”

“I don’t care,” Brad said. “I was just thinking maybe you wanted to look through the briefcase, you know, see what everyone’s trying to keep us from seeing.”

Grayson shook her head. “That’s not our concern. Division ordered the case closed, so that means the case is closed. We already broke protocol talking to the twit girl who could barely tell us her name. We’re not putting our asses on the line for that. I’m sure Division knows about the briefcase, Hammer. It’s evidence and we weren’t the first on the scene.”

“Yeah,” he smirked, “and according to you they’re listening to this conversation right now.” He asked for the keys, popped open the trunk, pulled the briefcase out, and then slammed the back lid of the Lincoln and threw the keys to Grayson.

“You never know,” she said.

They entered the hotel lobby, heading for the elevators. “Promise me I can get some shut eye without having to worry about you,” she said, stepping inside.

“You’ve got nothing to worry about,” Brad smiled. “Go get yourself some beauty sleep, then meet me downstairs at 7:30 tomorrow morning before we hit the airport. I’ll even treat you to one of those crap scones you like so much.”

The elevator dinged and Grayson stepped through the parted door with Brad a step behind. “You didn’t say you promised,” Grayson said.

“I promise,” Hammer smiled, waved goodbye, then turned toward his room as Agent Grayson walked toward hers. He muttered under his breath, “ I promise to tell you about everything I find in the briefcase.”

Brad slipped his keycard in the lock, opened the door, tossed the briefcase on the bed, changed into jeans and a tee-shirt, then went to work on the lock. He figured he could crack it in less than 10 minutes. It took him 25.

The briefcase held three items: a flash drive, a shit heap of cash, and something that confused him.

The flash drive didn’t surprise him. After all, a scientist’s research is what made him worth killing. The money only surprised him a little, since a guy as mud fence average looking as Madsen would need major coin to score the six hotties he’d spent an entire day fucking, until something stopped his heart from beating. What Brad didn’t get were the six cartons of cigarettes.

They were packaged in regular looking cigarette boxes, complete with shrink wrap. Across the top was a stamp: PROPERTY OF HELIX PHARMACEUTICALS AND ADVANCEMENTS in red lettering. In smaller black print just below it said: RED BREATH #2327.

The oddest thing about the cigarettes wasn’t their silvery gray paper, it was their scent — something he couldn’t quite place, though a battery of conflicting smells were suddenly soaking his nostrils: chocolate and vanilla, jasmine and fresh rain, spring after a hard winter, and though he knew it wasn’t possible — pussy.

Brad wanted to know what in the fuck Red Breath was, but even more, he wanted to know why in the hell had it been left in the hotel room. Maybe Doc Madsen hadn’t been murdered, because the briefcase had at least two things worth killing for, probably three, and yet they were all sitting safe at the back of the closet.

Hammer sat at the desk and opened the lid to his laptop, then plugged the flash drive into the port and waited for it to pull the data. There must have been a shit ton to read because his super fast laptop kept spinning while Brad went on waiting.

When the files finally sorted themselves on the screen, Brad about went apeshit.

There might have been a quarter million in the briefcase, but it was pennies compared to the thumb drive. Brad could have spent all night if not all week going through the two years of research. It took him nearly an hour to understand half of what he was seeing, then another hour to finally believe it.

Red Breath was the world’s first super sex drug in its most potent form. But for all its wonder, the drug in its current form was apparently peppered with problems. Brad wasn’t sure where to start looking since every limb of research sent him in a dozen new and confusing directions. Rather than the actual research, Brad found the most telling information in Dr. Madsen’s notes.

It turned out the doctor was prescribing himself a taste of his own medicine, and judging by the documented doses had turned into quite the junkie, moving from casual use to constant intoxication in just under two months.

The drug also appeared to affect different psyches in different ways. The doctor never should have self-medicated, at least not before he found a way to dilute it. Being a lab nerd since high school hadn’t prepared Madsen’s mind to deal with the drug, and it looked like it had eaten him alive. A guy like Brad, on the other hand, could take a dose of the Breath to amplify what he already had, without the danger of it completely altering his brain chemistry.

Brad leaned back in his chair and ran his hands through his thick head of dark brown hair, staring at the briefcase and the open carton of Red Breath. He knew he shouldn’t take it, and the whisper inside him was screaming for him to stop, but Brad smelled the adventure, and loved how much the odds were in his favor.

Dr. Madsen was a nerd, Brad wasn’t.

Dr. Madsen had an endless supply of the drug, Brad didn’t.

Dr. Madsen had an academic interest, Brad’s was purely social.

Of course, Dr. Madsen didn’t have Agent Grayson, who would be furious with him if she knew what he was doing. But she would never know if he didn’t tell her.

The open briefcase was a no-win situation. If Brad said yes, he’d be breaking protocol and the law, maybe even jeopardizing his health or safety. If he said no, he would wonder what he’d missed for the rest of his life.

Red Breath helped men cum multiple times in a row, with no dilution in desire or performance. That was enough to make him pull one of the cigarettes from the package, hold it under his nose, and inhale the sweet scent of chocolate, vanilla, jasmine, fresh rain, spring after a hard winter, and pussy.

He felt an immediate swell in his cock, as the scent made it easy to imagine the Red Breath working inside him. He placed the paper between his lips, then held it there as he fished through the briefcase for a lighter. He pulled a silver Zippo from the inner flap of the briefcase, then held it under the cigarette still dangling from his lips, suddenly too scared to light it.

What if a single breath changed him?

What if he lost control like Madsen had?

What if there was no turning back, and Red Breath was forever?

Brad shook his head at his own paranoia, sat at the edge of the bed, then lit the cigarette, drawing a deep drag of the smoke, where he held it in his well practiced lungs, just like the weed he “officially” never smoked.

Brad blew the first long trail of scarlet smoke into the room and stared at the crimson cloud which gave the drug its name. His head went buzzing, quickly followed by his entire body. He couldn’t imagine doing anything, but sitting in the chair as a flutter of something he’d never felt before rippled through his body like the tease of an approaching orgasm.

His muscles were completely relaxed and he felt like he was sitting in a tube being rushed down a gentle river. For a moment he forgot where he was, as he turned in circles, blinking at his empty hotel room. While the world around him felt as though it had slowed, his thoughts had accelerated. There was a multiple more than usual, and most of them were centered around the same message being sent to his brain.

He suddenly wanted to fuck.

No, he needed to fuck, and not just fuck, but fuck the living shit out of someone.

Brad’s cell suddenly thrummed against his leg. He pulled it from his pocket and checked the screen — a local Atlanta number. “Hello,” he said.

“Hi there, Agent Hammer, this is Willow, Willow Monroe. We spoke earlier today about…”

“Yes, of course Miss Monroe,” Brad cut her off. “How can I help you?”

The memory of her pert tits and sweet scent made his throbbing cock throb harder.

“I have some information that I think might be relevant to your case.” She paused, then dropped her voice to a whisper and added, “I know it is.”

“What’s loosened your tongue? Don’t you still have a non-disclosure to worry about?” The thought of Willow Monroe’s loosened tongue had him imagining it lapping the fat of his shaft.

Willow whispered even softer. She kept her tone professional, but Brad thought she sounded sexy as fuck. “I think I’m being followed, and I don’t think I’m safe. They don’t want me to tell you what I know.” She sounded like she was trying to keep herself from crying. “I think they might try to kill me, too. Just like they…” she trailed off, then said. “Is there somewhere we can meet? I’m in the car now. I can meet you anywhere.”

“Yes, of course Miss Monroe. Do you know where the Georgian Terrace is?”

“On Peachtree?’

“That’s right,” he said. “I’ll be in the hotel bar in 15 minutes. Can you meet me there?”

“Yes,” she said. I’m on my way now.” After a long second of silence, Willow added, “Thank you Agent Hammer,” then the line went dead.

Brad needed approximately two minutes to get downstairs to the bar, but figured he needed at least five to fist fuck the seed from his cock, and another five to clear the evidence. He couldn’t exactly head downstairs with his dick fat enough to fuck a tailpipe.

Brad was still swimming in the Red Breath when he went into the bathroom, dropped his pants to the floor, took his cock in hand — which felt twice as big as it ever had before — then held himself over the bathtub and tossed one off in under a minute, with a giant glob of pudding flying from the open eye of his snake.

He took a minute to admire the size of his splatter, cleaned himself up, closed the briefcase, slipped it inside the closet with his bag in front of it, hoped to hell he wasn’t making the worst mistake ever, then headed from his room to the hotel bar.

His body was a silent inferno. He stepped up to the bar and ordered a double shot of Patron, hoping the alcohol would do something to douse the Red Breath taking over his body.

He felt like the Terminator of Twat; scanning the room and mentally evaluating every available hole. His eyes settled on a hot piece of ass: his perfect type, with lightly bronzed skin and shoulder length coffee-colored hair, with a modest length skirt and a thin, tight tank top.

Brad didn’t have to move a muscle. He simply stood at the bar and sipped his Patron. She was standing beside him at the bar a minute later.

“Hey there,” she said.

Brad ordered Coffee-Colored Hair a double shot of Patron to match his own, then they made small talk for the two minutes it took the bartender to fill her glass.

Coffee Hair lifted the shot to her lips, winked at Brad, took it down in a fluid gulp and swallowed like a good girl, smiling like she’d just swallowed a mouthful of throat yogurt. She then stood on her tip-toes, leaned into Brad’s ear and whispered, “Ever fucked a tight pussy in a public restroom before?”

Of course he had, more times than he could count, starting back when the little birdie at the bar was probably still in preschool. And holy hotbox and a hell yeah, Brad wanted to fuck her silly in the bathroom right now. His just emptied cock was already throbbing.

Brad whispered back. “You know what you’re doing to me, don’t you, darling?”

“Of course I do,” she laughed. “Now follow me.” Coffee Hair skipped from the bar, across the lobby, then over toward the bathroom. She stepped inside the men’s room. Brad followed a step behind, locking the door behind him.

Brad’s hands went straight for her firm, young tits as she latched her mouth onto his and started working the zipper of his pants. Brad pulled the straps of her tank-top down past her shoulders, and then unfastened her bra, spilling her spheres of milky flesh with their bright pink nipples pointing straight at him.

Brad kneaded them hard, then brought them to his mouth, first one and then the other as Coffee Hair moaned and writhed beneath his lips.

“Holy shit, dude,” she said, finally freeing Brad’s massive cock. “That’s the biggest dick I’ve ever seen!” She dropped to her knees and looked up, her eyes pleading. “Please let me suck you off, I want to so, so bad. I want to swallow your cum and have you cum on my face and tits. Then I want to make you hard again so you can fuck me in my pussy and make me cum like I did for you.”

Brad had met the girl just five minutes before and she was begging and panting like she’d been waiting her whole life and probably meant every word. Brad was used to girls falling all over him, but he had never seen anything like this.

“Is that really what you want?” Brad asked. “For me to fuck you?”

“Yes!”

“Then beg me.”

“Please mister, please will you fuck me?”

“Louder.”

“PLEASE FUCK ME!”

“Suck it!” Brad said.

Coffee Hair took Brad’s 10–12 inches into her mouth, swirling her tongue around the head and worked her way to his balls. He fucked her mouth for a full minute, nearly losing himself to the ecstasy. Brad could feel the Red Breath taking over, whispering that his pleasure was all that mattered.

The smart part of his brain pulled back, afraid he would badly hurt her. As much as he wanted to keep fucking her mouth until he flooded it with spunk, he pulled out just seconds from cumming, pulled her to her feet, reached beneath her skirt, then ripped off her panties.

With his right hand, Brad massaged her clit, finger-fucking her tight pussy as she bucked against his hand and swore to every God worshipped around the globe that he was the best Earth had to offer, humping his hand into a body shattering orgasm. She slapped her palm against the wall and screamed. Brad muffled her mouth with his hand and growled, “Shut the fuck up or someone will bust in here.”

He withdrew his hand, and replaced it with his mouth as he continued to thrust his fingers in her box. When she was done shaking, he roughly turned her around, leaned her against the wall, then shoved his cock in her cunt, all the way to the base.

Once inside, Brad held nothing back, thrusting her into whimpers, stretching her walls like damp cotton as his hands danced between her ass and tits — rubbing her raw; pinching, and playing. Coffee Hair reached down and started playing with her clit and Brad’s balls, swinging wildly as he pounded behind her.

Something was happening inside him that he still didn’t understand. There was a split down the middle of his mind, the pleasure promising to punish the pain and make it leave forever, if only Brad would let it.

Brad pulled himself from her pussy to keep himself from cumming.

His resistance lasted just seconds. Coffee Hair looked hungry enough to eat whatever he fed her, so Brad turned her around, picked her up, then slammed his cock back inside her. She wrapped her legs around his waist as he gripped one firm ass cheek in each hand, watching her tits bounce wildly as he fucked her into another screaming orgasm.

“Please, please cum inside me!” Coffee Hair begged.

Her pleas pushed Hammer harder as the spunk boiled in his balls, ready to splatter inside her inner walls. He suddenly thought about Willow, could smell her sweet scent and imagined himself inside her.

He looked at Coffee Hair and her face was suddenly Willow’s.

A second from cumming, Brad’s brain finally won the battle. He dropped her on the top of the sink, withdrew his dick, then suddenly exploded, shooting his cream all over her (Willow’s) face and adding a splash of milk to her vanilla latte-colored tits.

Coffee Hair was a mess, but she was also delirious, and mumbling a bit like she’d just gotten off the best, most orgasmic roller-coaster ever and needed a few minutes to compose herself.

“Thank you,” Brad said, fixing himself in the mirror and then excusing himself and making his way out of the bathroom and back to the bar.

As his nose and cock promised, Willow was standing at the bar, looking hot as fuck. Though he’d already milked his dick dry twice in 20 minutes, he already felt the blood rushing back toward his ball sack.

Chapter Five — Willow Monroe

Willow saw the entire episode in the bathroom from the clear view of her unclouded mind, watching Brad hammer the holy hell out of that poor girl’s backside. There’s no way he could have seen his own look of shock when he covered her in a liter of spooge. He’d have to get used to it since the drug would stay in his system a while.

Agent Hammer came out of the bathroom, the scent of Red Breath and pussy all over him. He could sense her before he saw her, as she called to him in his mind. Her cunt was on fire, and she couldn’t wait to get him to the room and fuck him within an inch of his life, or maybe she’d even go all the way. Nothing felt better, and though she would certainly hate herself later, she’d always have the excuse that it was the Red Breath and not her.

Willow knew that when it came to the moment of truth, she might not be strong enough to refuse.

“Miss Monroe,” Agent Hammer said as he approached the bar.

“Agent Hammer,” she held out her hand. He took it, and a current of electricity crackled between them. He smiled, and she could feel the blood flowing to his cock. She imagined it throbbing inside her, and her pussy started leaking down her upper leg as it pulsed against her panties.

“How can I help you?”

Willow didn’t answer, at least not with words. She went into his mind and gave him a peep show instead, starting with a movie of her splayed across her couch, just after he left that afternoon, rubbing her hot palm across her hotter pussy. Then she took him into the bathroom with the brown haired girl, except Willow put her face on the body just as it got covered in cum. She ended his mind movie with a trip upstairs to Brad’s hotel room, with her fingers on his fly, freeing his cock and jacking the shaft as her lips latched onto the blush of his neck.

Agent Hammer probably thought he was imagining everything himself, and that the Red Breath was putting it there. Her heavy lifting was done the moment he drew the Red Breath. It wouldn’t take much, if anything, to get him alone.

Willow looked nervously to her right, and then to her left, then said, “I don’t feel safe here. Is there somewhere we can go?”

Agent Hammer didn’t miss a beat. “I’m not sure who’s following you, so I’m not sure the safest place to go. I suggest we stay in the hotel, but get out of the bar. Maybe my room?” He said it like a question, though clearly it wasn’t.

She nodded. He said, “Come on, let’s go,” then took her by the arm and led her toward the elevator.

On the ride up, Willow continued to let him think he was imagining himself inside her. He lightly moaned beneath his breath as she put more thoughts in his head, this time of her sitting on his face, as she glazed his lips with her glistening juices, bucking hard against his mouth, twisting her nipples and screaming about the GOD that he was.

Good luck trying to get his mind off her now.

He didn’t stand a chance.

They were in the room for seconds before Agent Hammer lost all sense of protocol. He started out with the right questions:

How can I help keep you safe?

What do you know about Dr. Madsen’s death?

Who do you believe is following you, and what don’t they want you to say?

Willow answered each with a coy nod as though she were trying to find the answers, but filled his mind with more images instead.

Squatting on the floor with her knees spread apart, stroking his dick with one hand and her cunt with the other. Then riding him reverse cowgirl as she wildly thrashed, staring at herself in the mirror and screaming, “How would you like to shove that hammer of yours right up my ass and cum in me so hard I fly off the bed?”

That was when Agent Hammer lost it.

He was suddenly on top of her, apparently willing to surrender his badge, ripping her blouse and throwing it to the floor. He lifted her up in his strong arms as she wrapped her legs around him, then swallowed his lips with hers.

Her tongue darted into his mouth, and his fucked hers right back, their lips mashed against one another hard enough to turn purple. He threw her on the bed and she reached for the top button of his pants, like a starving street urchin reaching for a banana.

He slapped her hand away, freed his cock from his pants by himself with his right hand, grabbed her head with his left and shoved his cock into her hot and hungry mouth, which was waiting in an open O before it got there.

He moaned on entry. She did, too.

Willow started lapping the sides of the shaft like she was trying to keep cream from melting off the side of a cone. She used her mouth as a pussy and fucked Hammer hard enough to charge by the minute, while he surrendered to pleasure.

His eyes rolled to the back of his head and his mouth hung open. Her head bobbed furiously up and down. Agent Hammer suddenly groaned, and his body twitched. Willow had to pull back because the throb of his cock was like an earthquake in her mouth.

The first blast slapped the back of her throat, the second splattered her hair, then as she pulled back further, the next one hit her chin. The next three painted her tits, and the final one landed on her belly button then leaked down to the top of her skirt.

Willow leapt from the bed, peeled her skirt to the floor, then jumped back on the mattress and started jacking Agent Hammer back to a hardened pipe.

It took ten seconds.

He growled, then rolled her over and shoved himself inside her sopping wet hole. The bed was so wet it looked like someone dumped a bucket of water on the top. He hammered her for four relentless minutes until he shot her full of cum, his second orgasm blasting even harder than the first, pooling the puddle below them to a bleed off the side.

It was after the second orgasm when she could see it in his eyes — Agent Hammer was losing all ability to discern fact from reality. She had seen it in Richard’s eyes as well, and had felt it in her own many times, especially in the beginning.

She wasn’t quite sure what was real herself, what was prophecy come true from the images she had broadcast, and what was actually happening in their present reality.

Was she really squatting on the floor with her knees spread apart, stroking his dick with one hand and her cunt with the other. Or sitting on his face, glazing his lips with her glistening juices as she bucked hard on his mouth, twisting her nipples and screaming about the GOD that he was?

She wasn’t sure about the first two, but Willow was sure she was in the thick of reality while riding him reverse cowgirl, wildly thrashing as she stared at herself in the mirror. She screamed, “How would you like to shove that hammer of yours right up my ass and cum in me so hard I fly off the bed?”

Agent Hammer pulled himself from her pussy, and flipped her onto her stomach. The blended sensations of warm and cool cum on the sheets were a pleasant tickle against her titties.

The tickle was the last thing she felt before Agent Hammer’s cock wormed its way into her asshole and sent her into another one of the evening’s countless orgasms.

She screamed in the hotel room, and even louder in her mind.

She was writhing around in the front of Heaven’s Gates, about to roll over to the clouds on the other side. She wiggled her ass like a demon, milking his dick to its final blast. The next one would kill him, and make her infinitely stronger.

Willow wiggled faster.

It wasn’t her fault, she told herself. It was the Red Breath.

She could feel him tightening behind her. In another few seconds her ass would be dripping and Agent Hammer would be dead.

He’s a loose end, he has to go.

It was a memory that saved him, one she wasn’t supposed to see.

Sometimes you couldn’t help what you saw or remembered during sex, and Agent Hammer couldn’t help but remember his first time, with his neighbor Caitlin, the two of them laying side by side, with him all starry-eyed. Hammer turned from Caitlin and looked into Willow, right into the center of everything she was.

No, I’m not a murderer.

Not of good people, and not if I can help it.

Agent Hammer wasn’t Richard, or any one of his half dozen hotel sluts.

Willow pulled away from Brad’s dick, just in time. He looked at her dazed, like a cartoon character with whistling birds circling his head, in a long, lingering confused moment that seemed to take up half of forever.

His cock suddenly twitched, then sprayed like a sprinkler, splattering the walls with a fresh batch of cum.

He collapsed to the bed, unconscious.

As Willow stared at him, she suddenly realized something. She’d brought him closer to the brink of death than anyone she’d not consumed. And in that moment, where she allowed him to live, she’d also done something else. She’d forged a connection with him. She could feel it, like mother to child.

But this wasn’t just a connection.

There was something else happening, something she couldn’t yet understand, but felt it like blood flowing inside her. And then it dawned on her what she’d done. She wasn’t sure how she knew, but she knew it as certain as she knew her name.

Oh my God.

Maybe I should just kill him?

No.

I can’t.

Willow quickly dressed, then went to the closet and removed Richard’s briefcase. She then found a notepad and pen and scribbled a note to Agent Hammer, which she stuck on the mirror in the bathroom.

Willow slipped into the hallway, and closed the door behind her.

The only problem with not feeding on Agent Hammer’s lifeforce, was that it left her weak, and needing to satisfy the hunger immediately. She closed her eyes and allowed her mind to wander the floor, searching.

She found what she was looking for two rooms down. She knocked on the door and a woman with long dark hair and yin-yang tattoo on her left bicep opened the door wearing a white tank top and silk pink shorts.

“Hello,” Willow said. “Wanna party?”

As if the woman had a choice.

Chapter Six — Brad Hammer

back to the present…

Agent Brad Hammer stared at the dead body in his bathtub. Eyes open, staring dead at him.

This was one memory he couldn’t remember.

What the hell? Did I do that?

His stomach churned and he felt like he might puke. The feeling passed as he forced himself to confirm what he knew. He lifted her wrist and felt like puking again. The girl had no pulse.

No way I did this. No fucking way.

What the hell is happening?

Who’s setting me up?

His mind flashed on the woman from last night — Willow.

Had she killed this woman? Had she also killed Dr. Madsen and the other women?

What the hell is going on?

His cell phone buzzed from somewhere in the room. Brad nearly jumped from his skin. He raced to his bed, and saw the phone’s light shining through his pants pocket, laying on the floor.

He fished the phone from his pocket, nearly dropping it, before turning it over to see from the screen who was calling.

It was a message from his partner, Grayson.

“Where are you Hammer? We’ve got a plane to catch and you’re not answering your phone. I’m going down to get some coffee. Get your shit together and get the briefcase. I’ll be up in 15 minutes. You better not be drunk again.”

The briefcase!

He knew what he’d see before he even checked the closet. The briefcase, along with the notes, the cash, and the cigarettes were gone.

Also gone… his department-issued computer.

Oh fuck.

He ran back into the bathroom, and looked again at the note, wondering what the hell it meant.

“I’m sorry. Now you’re infected, too.”
