Galloway only laughed harder. Her friends and neighbors all looked at her like she was crazy. "Come here," she threw her arms wide. "Come on, Chris, give me a big ol' hug!"
Chris began to hurry away, but stopped in his tracks as the root cellar door creaked open behind them.
They all froze and looked at it in nervous anticipation.
He emerged from the darkness, blinking against the light of the overheads. His clothes were torn and his legs were unsteady. His hair had turned completely white and it was a mess. His skin had wrinkled, and his eyes were haunted.
Robert Bradford ascended the stairs, looking like a ghost of a man.
The soldiers stepped forward protectively, forming a ring. Their expressions were murderously intense. Halley and Graver were glaring. Alvarado was cracking his knuckles. York was wiping his mouth repeatedly with the back of his hand. Only Galloway's face was neutral.
Rob regarded them. His expression was one of terror, but not at the men and women who were gathering around, more than willing to hurt him. There was nothing they could do to him that would be worse than what he'd endured down in that root cellar.
He found his voice— a desert wind blowing across dunes. "She... showed me... things..."
"I don't care about that," Galloway's voice snapped him out of his daze. Rob looked at her, and she saw that his expression of horror wasn't just out of what he'd seen down there with the ghost. There was something deep and profound in that stare— shame. He was ashamed and disgusted... with himself. The expression of a man desperate for forgiveness, but resigned to know it will never come.
Galloway folded her arms. "You could have done anything with that power. Something wonderful. Something beautiful or meaningful. And you didn't."
"And I didn't," he echoed. He wanted to let his eyes drop to the floor, but he didn't. He held her expression. He needed to see the hatred in her eyes. In all of their eyes. He needed to face the gravity of it all. "Sorry," he said softly.
"There's a lot of destroyed lives looking at you right now, Rob," Galloway said. "You better find a way to make this right."
"If it takes the rest of my life, I will," he said somberly.
Though none of them had any reason to... oddly, they all believed him.
*** Hollow Pleasure will be concluded in the next (and final installment)... and yes... there will be more sex... ***

Anonymousover 1 year agoEh.....Im almost at the end....and I have mixed feelings about this. I didnt enjoy this fromChapter 6 onwards,and the constant focus on Galloway ruined it. It feels like the story is preaching at us in this penultimate chapter. And the rules were never clearly explained,like if his power only extends to the building, how can he make Kelsey skip work and go buy cameras?
Jackal54641almost 3 years agoAuthorThanks for the feedback everyone! Seriously, you’re the best!
To answer some questions: I knew I wanted Galloway to be the focus of the last major conclusive chapter, and it would take her back to her unresolved issues with the casino. It would only be right since she’s my main protagonist. Chris’s cutting of the power in the basement was an idea I had since chapter 8 or so... but someone spoiled that surprise... won’t name names (because they’re anonymous). Lol! It’s cool though.
Iamppo, sorry I couldn’t deliver as good as you were hoping. I tried to make it as rough and rowdy as I possibly could, but you’re right— I did skimp on some elements that I could have explored further. Your suggestions were all good ideas. But sometimes I worry that too long of a sex scene could take away from it in a way that too short could as well. I love gang bang and orgy scenes, but I’ll admit that they’re a lot to juggle. Hats off to the talented folks who can do them in real life!
To everyone else, I’ll be finished with, and posting, the epilogue soon that will tie up the final loose ends.
I don’t know what the future will bring, but I can almost guarantee more Galloway. I can’t stay away from her for long. And it’s looking like she’ll have an exciting new career in law enforcement. So there’s that...
iamppoalmost 3 years agoJust to add from my previous comment, one of the loose ends I hope you address is the punk robbers, i wonder if they would ever come back and try to have another go with Galloway, if she'd still have those desires, or if she'd let them have their way with her again.
Another loose end to address would be Tina's parents, Danni's brother and Kelsey and her previous boyfriend. I loved this series and I hope you return to something similar after going back to your one shot stories.
iamppoalmost 3 years agoDamn, felt like Galloway's scene got cut short or rushed towards the end of it, it was great but I felt like an opportunity was missed towards the end of it when the demons allowed everyone else to have a turn. I feel like the thoughts and feelings of the squadmates could've been explored more as I'm sure they all would've had some desires for Galloway after working along side her for some time. Then there was when all the other strangers got a turn. Lastly, when Ethan finished up in her, it felt rushed, I'm sure he hated watching her go through the experience but at the same time, I'm sure he enjoyed his turn with her just as much as everyone else did. There would have been some feelings of guilt and shame by Ethan arising for enjoying his opportunity to add to the degradation of Galloway that he had only previously witnessed secondhand. Also, was and opportunity for them all to continue on after filling her up.
Look forward to the final chapter, and also looking forward to any bonus or extra scenes in the future.
Anonymousalmost 3 years agoHey, it's the commenter from the last chapter. Just curious about the choice of sex for this chapter and whether you already planned to do it like this or if it was somehow inspired by my comment? I definitely enjoyed how that turned out since it ties in to a part of the story I actually enjoy, but like I said I'm just curious.
Anyway I'm also looking forward to the final chapter! Since you said there will still be plenty of sex for this one, I actually imagine some gentler scenes (like what Kate and Ethan had) so everyone can recover from recent events and reaffirm relationships.
Or as an alternative I can also see some of them just going wild cause they can do it with who they want however they want, cause it's of there own choice. They can use that to reaffirm relationships and/or let off steam.
Anyway, whether it's another blowup orgy (Galloway Hargrove and the collage girls) or a bunch of quieter moments (the Burgers getting away to have that fun in the shed) I look forward to this and whatever you do after.
Anonymousalmost 3 years agoAnd now the end has come. it's been a real ride!
I figured Chris would do it, turning the power off was actually such a normal and realistic way to do it, the others should reconsider their careers for not thinking of it.
I have no idea how they will feel comfortable with Rob ever again nearby.
