She had escaped, and as Randy went through the rest of the cabin, he found a weird looking business card with a number on it. At that moment, card shaking in his hand, Randy vowed that he would find Melissa and this mysterious man and get answers as to what was going on. Maybe he could fix Melissa and if not, he would take care of the abomination in more permanent ways.
X and Melissa pulled up to the B&B he was staying at. A place called the Lazy Pine and for the past month and almost over five grand later. X had called the place home. Packed and ready to go, the pair left the town of Dursk and headed to one of the laboratories that X maintained. He was nervous about taking Melissa to this particular lab, but after hours of travel, he couldn’t care less. Hopefully, his wife would be in a good mood. The two drove through an old dirt road and to the first lab that X had established. His wife was in there, in a glass cage, probably sleeping, but one of his most trusted assistants would be inside.
X was a very wealthy man. He invested young, using student loans when he was in college and ended up scoring big. His net worth put him within the top twenty or so richest people in the world, but his identity had alway been X. They pulled up, and each got out of the respective vehicles.
“This is a gorgeous place X,” Melissa commented.
“Thank you. It was the first place I ever bought.”
Melissa examined the building. It looked straight out of a current home catalog. There was so much shiny metal on the outside; Melissa wondered how the house wasn’t seen through the woods when they were driving up.
“So Melissa, you wanted to know about my wife.”
“Yes…”
“Well, you’re about to meet her.”
“What!?”
X laughed.
“Don’t worry about anger. She will be different from what you’d expect. Let’s go in. I bet the one who watches over this place is out.”
At least X hoped the man was out. The dude was a weirdo, very reclusive, but he was super smart, and that intelligence was one of the only reason he trusted the man alone with his wife.
“She isn’t gonna mind?”
“My wife is almost gone. You will understand in a second.”
The couple arrived at the door, which was a dark slate of metal but next to it was a pin pad and a palm reader. X used both, and the door popped open, revealing nothing but darkness.
“Hold on; there’s a light somewhere. Charles must be out.”
X went into the dark and with a click, the interior of the house came illuminated with a brightness that put the day to shame.
“Too bright?” she asked.
“Oh, it helps with her.”
“Your wife?”
“Yes, she prefers the darkness, so the light keeps her placated.”
“And she’s locked up?”
“Yes, come on in. I’ll show you.”
Melissa did as she was bid, now tied to X and having little choice in other options. X noticed that Melissa had reverted almost entirely back to human except for the round ears parting the hair at the top of her head. That might be a permanent feature but with only five happy users of the pill, X had no data to back up the thought.
“So, you will be studied a bit while you’re here,” he said.
“That’s fine, though I can offer a suggestion to you already.”
“What’s that?”
“You should find a couple to take the pill together, Will help in both sexes agree.”
X liked the suggestion, but all he offered was a nod as the walked into the interior of the house. The walls were bare, and the furniture was sparse.
“We have to go downstairs. Be careful, the first step is steep.”
He led her to a door and into the basement they went. Everything was wrong; X could feel it in the air. He heard noises, like the sounds of intense fucking. X and Melissa stumbled upon a scene that neither wished they had. Melissa could only surmise that Charles was currently humping it out with X’s wife. She looked over in horror at X, but he just watched the scene. The woman underneath Charles was screaming in ecstasy.
“X?”
Her voice interrupted the two lovers. They were in a glass case, and the door was closed.
“He doesn’t know it yet, but being that we are here now, she won’t let him leave that room alive.”
Melissa was confused, but Charles went back to fucking the woman.
“You guys have a weird relationship.”
“Well, you haven’t seen why yet.”
The shrieks of pain were a complete surprise. Melissa watched as Charles just disappeared in something that Melissa had no words to describe.
“She was dying from a rare disease. We had just married after being together for four years, and she was dying. I and another searched in desperation for a cure. We found it, but she is the first user of the pill. It was great at first,” X said, telling his tail in a solemn tone. “Within hours of taking the pill, she began to recover. A full day later, she was back to her old self and out of the hospital. They were confused but we went home to here and for the first time in a year, I was happy. Then she began to change.”
He paused.
“What went wrong?” Melissa asked.
“She began to change. It was little things at first. She wanted more sex; she became more aggressive, and then her body started doing weird things like oozing. See, my wife doesn’t get the anthropomorphic effect; she got more of a “my body can become anything.” She kills through sex now, often by exhausting her partners until they expired. Other ones she just absorbs into her. It worse when I am here, and she tries for me. The more I’m around, the crazier she gets. I’ll have to find someone else to run this place.”
“That’s why the experiments. You’re hoping to reverse the pill in some way or bring her back to being close to normal.”
He smiled at her, but it was fake. Melissa saw an almost defeated man in that moment, and she vowed then to help him in whatever ways that he needed.
