In Self Defence

 

by Daniel Guy

Lamb is up early. He’s stepped out of the shower and is drying his slim, pale hairless body with a thick white towel.   He’s been contacted by a man called Colonel Kein and asked to attend a meeting at a government building in the city centre this morning, at nine am.  He has no idea what it is about. He doesn’t think he’s done anything wrong.  He dries his cropped jet black hair, slips into an ironed white shirt and then steps into his best trousers. He finishes dressing and takes a moment to examine himself in front of a large mirror.  He knows he’s a good-looking young man, but he knows too that close friends are curious why, despite all the women who fall for him, he’s never able to stay in a relationship long.  Lamb looks at his watch.  No time for breakfast. He has to leave at once..  

Hello Lamb.  I’m Kein. Glad you could come so quickly. Come with me. I can brief you on the way.… 

Now then, I’m project manager for a government department, based here, which  deals primarily with national security. 

A lot of  people ask themselves why a small nation like ours can exert such an enormous influence in the world, and how it is that our leaders can continue to act with impunity on the world stage without any meaningful opposition. Well, I would argue that it’s because of what happens here.  This building is basically a vast archive of personal files and information that we have accumulated, of every influential western politician and media mogul. We like to call them our clients.  Here we have photographic and video evidence of our clients engaging in illicit and in many cases, illegal sexual activity. All this collected material is organised in categorises,  over there is extra-marital affairs, gay sex, underage sex, and down there is sex with animals, meetings with prostitutes, etcetera, etcetera….

In here, we deal with specific sexual deviations and fetishes. 

- Come in. Close the door behind you…

Now then, you’ve been requested to help us with someone we are enlisting as a new client.  Sit down and I’ll bring up his file on the screen….

- Here we are,  Olaf Vilik, Polish member of parliament, aged forty-six, married with four children. Now, this chap is developing quite an insatiable sexual appetite for suffocating young men with plastic bags. 

A few years ago we began examining Vilik’s psychological profile. We analysed his on-line consumption, likes and dislikes and consumer choices and discovered he had a mild sadistic interest in bondage and all things shiny. We began to target him with specific messages, and in time he became more interested in pornography, and more particularly, into more extreme plastic fetish-themed images. Sixth months ago we were successfully able to lead him to an alternative fetsh dating site, which he signed up to and began messaging young men who enjoyed asphyxiation as a sexual activity.  We established that Vilik was developing a particular attraction for young slim men with dark hair,  so we created profiles that would appeal to him, using photos we harvested. One of the profiles we created was a character called Bates who lives in London, who is slim, with dark hair, and who loves bondage games with plastic.  For this profile we used photographs of you, and that’s why you are here.  Three weeks ago he started communicating with Bates on-line. 

Here, look…..these are the messages that have been exchanged in the last two days… It is you that he’s interested in meeting…

 He’s visiting London tomorrow for a conference and you have agreed to meet up. The meeting is scheduled to take place at the Hilton Hotel in London tomorrow night. Cameras and microphones have been installed in room 101 which is the room Bates has reserved for him. You will fly to London tomorrow morning.  Your tickets are in that envelope. You have agreed to meet him in the hotel foyer at eight pm.  As you can see from the messages, you have agreed that no penetrative sex will take place, but that you will allow him to blindfold you, undress you, tie your hands behind your back, tie a clear plastic bag over your head, and let him masturbate over you while you struggle. 

We will have our team located in the room next door and we will be recording everything that takes place. If we feel that your life is in any real danger, my team will enter the room and prevent any further activity taking place.  But remember, Bilik’s intention is not to kill you but to ejaculate. 

You seem a little shocked? 

Listen to me, Lamb. You must understand that we have done an extensive examination of your own psychological profile, based on your on-line presence and consumer choices, and it’s pretty clear you’re into the whole asphyxiation thing as well. This is why we submitted your photo.  I imagine it’s possibly something you might actually enjoy.  But If you decide not to help us, we cannot guarantee that this information will be shared with members of your family…

Shall I proceed? 

Good. 

Now I went through your resume and I like what I see. You know how to follow orders.  You are focused and complete any tasks.  I have every confidence that it will all go very smoothly, and if it does,  then you will receive a payment of eight thousand dollars, as a sign of our gratitude. 

Now then.  Have you any questions at this point?
