Which Does Lois Choose?

Lois Lets Herself Be Stripped

Lois said nothing, simply held out her arms as unfamiliar hands pulled off her jacket. Warm air crept over her skin, but she could still feel the fine hairs raise as they were uncovered, gooseflesh rising.

It was a test, the reporter knew that. Groups like this one expected a degree of surrender and sacrifice. You had to give yourselves to them before you could be initiated into the mysteries. So the reporter tried to project calm, to breath normally as those strange hands plucked at her shirt, drawing it over her head.

The whole exercise was against Lois Lane's basic instinct. Not that she minded taking off her clothes—she worked hard to keep in shape, and was confident in her body—but the loss of control was something she disliked. A couple of her past lovers had tried, playfully, to pull her clothes off, and Lois had always resisted that.

So here she was, standing in her bra now, as those hands grasped the waistband of her pants...and the reporter struggled to stop herself from just grabbing them and yanking them off herself. Instead she meekly stood there as the warm fingers slid them down over the curve of her ass, and lifted her legs as they were pulled down over and off of her feet.

Leaving her standing there in her bra and panties.

Snap.

Lois swallowed as hands slipped under her arms, a warm breath on the back of her neck as they slid the straps off of her shoulders, the cups off of her breasts.

Just the panties now.

It was a thong, the strings tied at the side. Could feel the strings drawn taught, silk slipping against silk, tension wavering in the barely-there-garment...and then even that disappeared. She felt the front of the panties fall forward, the underwear drawn through her legs.

"You're ready now," Blaze's voice came from in front of her, and Lois swallowed as she suddenly realized she had no idea who was literally breathing down her neck.

"Step forward, Lois." The woman's voice said from in front of her. "Step forward into darkness."

Struggling to remain calm, Lois did so.
