Nightmare in White

Bright and pretty Tess Whitcher is looking forward to marrying Dominic Mountguard and becoming part of his venerable and wealthy kindred. It will mean moving out of her flat and leaving some of her favourite possessions behind, including her Korrector bed, but that was worth it if it meant living happily ever after, wasn't it?

But then Tess discovers that Dominic and his kin have certain medieval and very strict ideas about how their wives should behave, involving chains, brands and total submission to their husbands. What was even worse, they were planning on giving her a short, sharp and quite literally shocking introduction to these traditions.

Gagged, naked and in tears, Tess must obey their rules and learn how to be a good, obedient Mountguard wife, or else. Under restraint, she is taken to the Mountguards' private church where she endures a wedding rehearsal from hell, where even the vicar has his way with her. Fortunately, Tess has an unexpected ally in her suffering - her bed.

Note: This is one of the "Nightmare In?" tales of bondage, submission and perverse sex set in weird but strangely significant dreamworlds, involving women who have only one thing in common: the type of bed they use.
