Female, Recreational IV: Gargoyles

by Badger Therese

The fourth book of the five-book Female, Recreational series, published between January 2017 and January 2021. This work includes sexual and other content that might upset some readers and is meant only for those 18 and older. Past the place where the girls were kept, past the isolation hall, through another door, the students filed into the room that was truly for presentations, seats set up like the desks of a college classroom, a large, interactive whiteboard mounted on the wall up front. “Want a towel?” Estelle asked. “Please,” Hannah replied, accepting a full-sized bath towel Estelle grabbed from a stack on the counter. Hannah wasn’t the first girl to come to a presentation here nude, she guessed, and she took a seat up front and decided to treat this like any other academic experience, like a treasured privilege. For the next two hours, Hannah and her fellow researchers watched videos, reviewed the history of New Life, which included a single old photograph of Druhler Fairchild, and heard from some of the facility’s specialists, including Dr. Johnson, who spoke a little nervously, a little haltingly, and whose feelings toward Hannah were impossible to gauge as he surveyed the room with his somber eyes, looking at her no more than anyone else. She maintained an even gaze in return, focusing on the words and the concepts for the most part, allowing her mind to wander only now and then to what the evening might hold, what Dr. Johnson might do or not do – if he had her over at all – what he might look like naked, how he would feel. He was seeing her nude for the second time this morning. Did he care? Probably not. His professional life revolved around naked females. Maybe, if she did indeed make it to his home, he would ask her to stay clothed.

Brilliant! Badger is as smart as Hannah

Wonderful. Dystopian story that is genuinely erotic yet serious. subtle. First rate plot that fits together like a Chinese puzzle. A heroine to believe in. Please give us more, your other series need sequels of the same quality.
