Mandy's Dark Side Ch. 1
Author's Note: This my first attempt at writing an erotic story and I am self-editing for the most part, so please be patient with my inevitable typos or poor turns of phrase.
This story will include themes of breakup, infidelity, incest, non-consent and forced intercourse. The story may also veer into other kinks and taboos. I am writing this as I go, so who knows where my filthy mind might lead us. I do not necessarily condone any or all of the behaviors or kinks depicted here. Non-consent especially should only ever exist in pure fantasy or as part of an explicitly consensual and carefully negotiated BDSM play framework. This is a work of fiction and fantasy where safewords are not required. All depicted characters are 18+.

MANDY
Amanda's flat and toned stomach turned over with barely suppressed uneasiness for what seemed like the hundredth time. It had been torturing her since she had started her drive back to her childhood home for the first time in over five years. The windows of her beat-up compact were rolled all the way down. The air conditioning had stopped working in the first hour of her multi-day drive across the country. Her pale skin glistened with a sheen of sweat and her shoulder-length red hair was stirred only slightly by the oppressively sultry breeze. She moaned in frustration. She had been sitting in traffic on the outskirts of her hometown for the last hour and she could feel the anxiety bubbling up from her guts again. She had no idea if what she was doing was a good idea. It felt like a better choice than staying in her miserable dead end life with her boyfriend back in Toronto. She gritted her teeth as she had to remind herself again; ex-boyfriend. Ex-boyfriend.
She had been driving for nearly 72 hours with only brief breaks. She'd had only one, perhaps ill-advised nap on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere. She was bone tired. She hadn't eaten anything but the uniformly bad food available alongside any freeway in North America. She had to pee. Badly. She had a bad feeling that she wouldn't be able to get to her parent's place in time to deal with that particular incoming disaster.
Amanda's narrow but well defined hips were aching from being welded to the cheap bucket seat for days and she was sure that she smelled ripe. She took a deep, calming breath. The ratty seatbelt pressed against her firm, perfectly round and thoroughly fake 34DDD bust as she adjusted herself.
To her right, another car eased forward, nudging its bumper a few more feet ahead, as if that would make a difference in this jam. Out of the corner of her eye she could see an older man at the wheel. She glanced over to see he had company, an older woman-maybe his wife-on her phone. As Mandy turned her head to look away, she caught the man's eyes roving over her. His eyes locked on her chest, widening noticeably. She smirked and held her gaze on him, waiting patiently until he glanced up and their eyes locked. It was like catching a deer in headlights. He froze and Amanda grinned, feeling the anxiety ease as she received one of her preferred distractions from that particular issue; male attention. She winked and blew a kiss and his face flushed immediately. His eyes darted back to lock on to the car in front of him and Amanda thought she could see his knuckles whitening as he gripped the steering wheel. The dirty fucker got caught and was trying to pretend he hadn't. She smirked and rolled her eyes.
Men! So predictable.
And there it was again. Her stomach growled and reminded her of why she was here. She sighed and closed her eyes, playing the scene over again in her mind.
"
Just please, don't go!" Joshua, her boyfriend, whined at her as she stuffed her second bag with whatever clothes, toiletries and random belongings she could find within arms reach.
Her eyes were brimming with tears but she refused to give in to them and continued tearing around their small, sad apartment. She collected what few more things she couldn't live without and headed for the door.
Joshua tried to step between her and her escape. Her breath caught as his large, muscled bulk loomed above her. He dwarfed her petite and delicate frame. It's what initially attracted her to him. He could have picked her up and tossed her across the room, if he had wanted to. She stood there looking defiantly up at him, swallowing back her tears. She clenched her jaw, her dark blue eyes flashing.
"What are you going to do, stop me?!" she hissed, the venom in her voice visibly causing him to recoil. Deep down, she wished he would.
For a brief moment, she thought he might actually summon the balls to actually do it, but yet again,he wilted under her gaze. She nearly groaned out loud in frustration but swallowed the impulse at the last second; refusing to give him the satisfaction.
She stepped around him, grabbing the bag she had already packed, where it stood by the door to the tiny apartment. As she stepped out into the hallway she could hear again what he muttered as the door swung closed behind her.
"HOOOONK! HOOOONK!"
Amanda nearly shrieked in surprise as the large truck behind her lay on its horn. Her heart pounded as she was snapped out of her memory. The jam had cleared and there was a wide open freeway ahead of her and who knows how many angry motorists behind her. She cursed and slammed her foot down on the gas.
She rolled her eyes. "Woolgathering again?" she knew her Dad would have said. It was just like when she used to daydream and lose her focus; an all too common occurrence back when she lived here with her parents in the sleepy town they raised her in. Thinking of her father's kindly smile and reassuring presence, she drew a deep steadying breath. And there it was! Finally; the familiar exit she had taken countless times before, that led back to her parent's home. Her home.
It wasn't long before she was no longer dependent on her phone for navigation and was taking the turns through the sparsely rural outskirts of town almost unconsciously. Familiar roads and houses passed her by as muscle memory took over, guiding her finally home.
Finally, she could see the small tract of land her parents had been slowly improving for the past several decades. A new fence, but still somehow familiar. The old mailbox was still there, the wooden fish hanging from below, freshly painted red.
She turned into the long winding driveway. A pleasant warmth grew in the pit of her anxiety ravaged stomach as she heard the familiar crunch of gravel. The driveway looped around the property and past a few new outbuildings.
Then the old barn her Dad had lovingly restored and built into a loft apartment so they could rent to local college students. She didn't see a car parked in front. Not surprising, since it was the middle of summer and many students returned home for the summer and wouldn't keep up a full year lease.
