Knock. Knock. Knock.
The sharp noise made Priya jump and the door flew open as three senior girls strode in.
"New girls!" Rashmi said.
"Stand up. Now."
Priya scrambled to her feet and so did Anjali.
"Hostel has rules and tonight, we will inspect."
Rashmi's fingers snapped.
"Strip."
Priya's breath hitched.
"What?"
"You heard her," another senior, Nisha, said.
"We need to make sure you're not hiding anything. Clothes off."
Anjali pulled her tank top over her head, revealing firm, perky breasts. Priya's hands gripped the hem of her nightie and removed overhead exposing her small, round breasts as she stood bare.
"Look at this one," Nisha said, circling Priya.
"So innocent, she's never even touched herself."
She grabbed Priya's wrist and forced her hand toward Anjali.
"Go on and feel your roommate. Let's see if you know what a real woman feels like."
Priya's fingers brushed Anjali's stomach.
"Lower," Rashmi ordered.
Priya's trembling hand slid down, grazing the waistband of Anjali's shorts.
"Pathetic," Rashmi said as she pulled Anjali's shorts, making her bare too.
"Hold still," Nisha said as she tilted a lit candle.
The first drop landed on Priya's inner thigh as she gasped. Another drop followed, then another, trailing up her sensitive skin. Anjali bit her lip as wax dripped onto her own thighs, her breath coming faster.
"You can stop the pain," Rashmi whispered.
"Just kiss. Distract each other."
Priya's eyes watered but Anjali leaned in.
"Good girls," Rashmi said.
"Now let's see how much more you can take."
"Turn around," Rashmi ordered.
"Hands on the wall."
They obeyed.
Nisha ran a fingernail down the curve of Anjali's spine.
Priya flinched as cold fingers gripped her hips, spreading her cheeks.
"Such pretty little backsides," Rashmi said.
"But let's see how they handle a real test."
The candle tilted again, dripping wax down the small of Priya's back and she jerked.
"Don't move, sweetheart," Nisha said.
"Unless you want it somewhere deeper."
Anjali's breath hitched as another senior traced a finger between her own cheeks.
"Relax," the girl said.
