Fetishland Blog 5
The literary device of a story within a story

Adventures in Fetishland
On this week’s part of my two week blog tour to promote my new book, ‘Alice in Fetishland’ I’m talking about how the classic ‘Alice in Wonderland‘ and ‘Alice Through the Looking Glass’ books inspired my own bdsm/fetish re-imagining of them.
One of the devices used in the Alice books is that of the story within a story. For example, there is the mouse’s tale or ‘tail’, there is the mock turtle’s story and then, of course, Tweedledum and Tweedledeer relate the story of the Walrus and the Carpenter. There are many other places where a verse or piece of story is injected into the main narrative. I like this as a literary device and love story cycles like the ‘Tales of the Arabian Nights’ where stories weave seamlessly in and out of one
another. So, it seemed natural for me to introduce the idea into my book.
It also helped me with a problem with the structure of the story, in particular resolving how I could work Kim’s back-story into the book. This sub-theme of the book was important for explaining why Kim had been chosen to serve the Red
Queen and, therefore, building a story around her past, which would make the book more than a simple description of a series of fetish/bdsm encounters. Kim’s past is related in a series of ‘stories within a story’ revealed by the black cat, one of the characters in the book, and finally by the Red Queen herself. Within the context of the Red Queen’s fetish fantasy logic-defying world these stories, which originated in a completely different story cycle, worked perfectly to provide an explanation as to why Kim had been chosen by the Red Queen and brought into her world to serve her.
The extract from the book I’ve chosen for today is taken from one these ‘back-
stories’ describing how Kim got to be chosen by the Red Queen.
Story blurb
In this bdsm re-invention of the Alice stories Kim’s life takes an unexpected twist
when she is taken from the massage parlour she works in to a fetish fantasy world ruled over by the Red Queen, a powerful dominatrix. There, an intense psychological drama is played out between the two women as Kim enters a journey into submission. The Red Queen assumes different characters who torment Kim in a series of trials ranging from the funny and strange to the sadistic and erotic. Kim is lured deeper into this world by hints the Red Queen knows something about her past. Why has she been chosen to serve this powerful female? Why is the Red Queen so interested in her? When Kim finally finds out the truth, it is shocking and bizarre.

“Congratulations, my young friend – you have done well. I applaud your courage and cunning in overwhelming the foot soldiers of Christ. Your mistress has chosen her protagonist wisely and prepared him well. I have never known the gold, silver, crystal and quartz gates to be penetrated before, yet you have managed to pass through all four. You must have subtle powers behind you.”
His voice was clear, slow and seductive. I found myself being drawn in. The old man stood up awkwardly clasping a wood staff to help support him and shuffled towards me never once turning his sharp gaze away from me. He grasped my arm for support.
“I bear you no ill will, my friend. You have justly earned the moment of your triumph. But listen to me, my son, don’t you see what I can offer you – all of these thirteen girls could be yours to use how you desire. It is in your power to have them, I will not stand in your way if you wish to take them. Look at them. They are still helpless, they would do anything for you if you released them.”
I was aware I was being lured into a trap, but the voice of the old man was so calmly seductive that everything he said seemed to make sense. His silky tones were bewitching me. My mind was in conflict, torn between resistance and his seductive temptation. He grasped my face with his hand and turned it around the semi-circle of marble columns making me gaze at each of the thirteen naked girls chained to the pillars. They were all gagged and none were able to call out any warnings to me or to break the spell of the aged monk’s voice.
“Look upon them, my son. All of that soft naked flesh could be yours. Thirteen girls chosen for their beauty, presence and spirituality to be trained to serve the goddesses and they could be yours. They may have been used over zealously by my disciples but imagine them restored, bathed in rose water, their delectable bodies perfumed with the finest scents from the orient. Just think, as they touch your face with their soft hands, as they caress your body, as their gentle fingers arouse your sexual feelings. Feel the touch of their scented hair as it brushes against your naked body whilst they run their hands all over you. Until, finally, their fingers gently brush against your thigh, then your balls and then ultimately touch your cock. What man could resist such attention?”
My training at the hands of Goddess Nemesis, the years of devoted servitude to her and the worship of the sacred feminine, was being put to the test. I could feel the stirrings in my loins, the gentle swelling in my cock. I knew that if I allowed myself to get an erection I would be defeated. I strained every sinew of my body and mind to hold back the emerging tumescence in my cock.
“Don’t resist now. Listen to what will befall you. Feel your cock erect and hard.
Imagine as the soft lips of a young acolyte envelops your cock, feel the silky texture of her saliva around you and the gentle movement as her mouth takes in the shaft of your hard cock and runs up and down your erection bringing you just to the point of your climax. Then, imagine, as she pulls her mouth away, leans back and spreads her legs wide for you, as you kneel down and then enter her. How long will you last? How long before the final explosion of orgasm erupts inside her? Then, the deed is done – you would have impregnated a trainee goddess with your seed and she will be yours. All thirteen of them could be yours; every day and every night they would be there for you to take your pleasure.”
