Good premise but I think the naked walk would make the threat of exposure irrelevant
How about a little fucking originality? That whole plot line has been been beaten to death. Seriously, by giving an adult, mature woman those instructions...why the fuck didn't she go to the cops? You have to make it a little believable.
Here's a chance to break new ground. Have her get help to fight against the blackmailer knowing that her life would not be worthwhile is if submits. So she might as well fight and have a chance. So many of these stories are so trite. You could be different!
Has this been done? Yes. The moronic suggestion to have her go to the cops would certainly make this a very short story so why bother? If these other reviewers don't want to read it then they should avoid the next chapter ....but they won't because they have this need to stop others from reading erotica. I'm surprised someone hasn't suggested placing it in another genre. When they have nothing good to say ....they always fall back on that one.
I agree with the negative comments to a slight extent, in that I'm sorry she walks naked outside, which does smack of a certain amount of lunacy, though when compared to what she fears she has to lose, maybe not to an improbable degree.
I just look forward to where it goes from here, since, of course, it's how hot the sex ends up being that makes or breaks this kind of story, regardless of category (the categories only differing in what is seen as making the sex hot).
Actually, my suggestion was not moronic that she go to the cops. The blackmail theme has been done so many times that unless this writer breaks away from the norm, it will just fit the formula. Being naked outside with neighbors to witness will certainly get back to hubby and family. So, what is she afraid of by not going to the cops. Yet, it would probably change the category to non-erotic, but it does not have to be short as she unwinds the mystery of who has the years old tape, why now, and how to get even and cope once the tape is posted on the internet.
excellent build up, great story... one question, if the instructions are to walk down the neighborhood naked? why not just make a stand, tell her husband ride out the threats. Rape is rape. Fight back. Keep writing 5 stars
An interesting start, but I have to agree with the others. Walking naked in front of the neighbors will get around just as fast as posting the pictures will. Hubby will find out by the end of the day.
I'd say rewrite it slightly. Say she has to walk out in her bathrobe at least, maybe with the front almost open. That way if anyone sees her body it could be passed off as an accident.
As for the whole blackmail scheme, we have to accept a certain idiocy in allowing it to continue. As soon as a threat of blackmail is received, it's always better to lay everything out rather than get stuck deeper and deeper into the coming debauchery.
Then again, we LOVE the coming debauchery, so we allow the plot hole to exist in order to get to the unfortunate wife's imminent subjugation. And to her eventual acceptance of being used as a sex-toy for many, MANY men.
