Chapter Eighteen
It was a Phoenix rising up from the ashes of The Lodge. Hundreds of expert stonemasons and craftsmen from around the US and Europe worked around the clock, building The Castle. Money was never a factor and that was made clear to all the workers at the outset. They were handsomely paid and so they gladly signed on. Soon, the drug labs were back up and running and the place began to have the feel of Scott's old lodge, only bigger and with massive stone walls. Lounges went up, large and lavish. Posh guest accommodations and luxurious rooms were built. The Castle had a swimming pool, gym, even a helipad. But it all came with a relentless and savage work schedule.
All was going smoothly and then it all came to a grinding stop. A problem arose from the grueling construction schedule but was disguised as something frivolous. A work stoppage occurred when one of the German stonemasons questioned the design. "Ohne Weinkeller und Verlies kann es kein Schloss sein," the mason said disgustedly, meaning the castle must have a wine cellar and a dungeon. Without that, it was just pure shit, he said, and stopped working. Most of the European stonemasons agreed, and they all held a full work stoppage. It was really just a break that they wanted from the around the clock pace demanded of them.
It was Chrissy who stepped in, spoke up and quickly resolved the problem. She spoke German, French and Italian and jumped into the fray. She showed up at the worksite in the middle of the night, ready to help. Speaking perfect German, she started talking to the irate Germans about their demands. She convinced John to put the wine cellar and dungeon in. "Please, let's do it. I can work with that," she explained to JJ. "It'll be a great location for the movie productions," she said.
That night, at the worksite, Chrissy stood in the bright, white glare of the work lights, and told the men there would now be a dungeon and wine cellar at The Castle. Wearing a black leather jacket and black, shiny skintight pants, the tall, magnificent platinum blonde then slowly stripped off her jacket, unbuttoned her blouse and removed it in front of all of the work crews. Bathed in the stark, bright lights and displaying her enormous new breasts to the work crews, she announced that the man deemed the best worker at completion, would get to fuck her. She repeated her statement in Germen, French and Italian, to the delight of the entire crew. Then, with great flourish and flair, she slipped her hand into her shiny, black tights and began slowly and teasingly, massaging her pussy for all to see. After several minutes, she pulled her hand out and offered it to one of the workmen standing next to her. The man instantly began licking and lapping at her slippery fingers, the dampness from her cunt glistening in the bright flood lights. The work stoppage ended immediately, and building resumed at a furious pace.
After a quick redesign and some digging, a new lower level of The Castle came to be. In the end, a tie was declared between four of the workers and Chrissy took them all down to the new dungeon and christened it properly. From then on, Chrissy became the creative genius, charged with coming up with stories and sets for filming at Hedonism Productions. The German craftsmen dubbed Chrissy "Der Stern," or Star, and the name stuck.
While final work continued on The Castle, the subscribers of Hedonism Productions were relentless in their demands for new films for their money and Regina didn't feel she could give them what they wanted. So, Chrissy jumped in and began work and soon new videos emerged. Chrissy was writing, directing and acting in the videos she created. It seemed each of the women were developing a cultlike following with their subscribers, and Chrissy tapped into that. The women each had a specialization that their fans loved. Regina was adored as being the dominant Mistress Diamond, the stunning beauty, often in leather or latex. Val, as Silk, specialized in doing groups and gangbangs, often sprinkled in with a little BDSM. Anything that was a little kinky was usually taken on by Val and Peggy. Peggy, or Pepper, was the submissive side of the pair, and the two began to assume a similar look, becoming the new set of twins for Hedonism Productions. Peggy added the same Stairway to Heaven tattoo, exactly like Val's, on her lower back and down the crack of her ass. She had her nipples and her areolae pierced, matching Val's. And the subscribers loved it, paying outrageous fees to watch them together. The twins were a huge hit with the fans.
Jolene became popular as the hot MILF next door, playing all the Hotwife plots, with themes that often included sex with the stepsons, or cuckolding her husband. And Chrissy, now called Star, lived up to her new name. She started wearing elegant evening dresses around and looked every bit the part of the blonde bombshell of old Hollywood. She was the tall, elegant beauty queen with the enormous breasts, harkening back to the glamorous movie stars of the past. In addition, as "Star", Chrissy was the writer and director of Hedonism Productions movies, while Regina ran the business side of Hedonism Productions and the subscriber websites. The first of Chrissy's titles soon rolled out for subscribers. Chrissy's first film was written for herself and titled "The New Girl". It became an instant hit with subscribers.
In Chrissy's first movie, it was the first day of work in the office for the newly hired and naive secretary. Desperate for the job, she swore to do "everything it takes" to work there. She showed up for work wearing no makeup and wearing quite unflattering clothes. The moment the new girl entered the office, she was confronted and berated by the beautiful office manager, Lady Diamond. She is stripped, forced to perform oral sex on Lady Diamond, she has sex with a black male colleague and then fucks the boss and a client in a lengthy double penetration episode. At the end of the movie, the new girl has been savagely fucked and now lays on the sofa in boss's office with cum pouring out.
The boss says, "New Girl, that's not bad for your first day. I think you'll fit right in here. But we went easy on you, so tomorrow you'll be expected to do twice as much. And tell your husband you'll be working late tomorrow night. I have a group of clients for an after-hours meeting. I'll expect you there."
Everyone who watched "The New Girl" was amazed at how good an actress Chrissy was. And everyone was stunned at how Regina was really getting into it and was so great.
Soon, a menu of new titles emerged on the Hedonism Productions subscriber website. But instantly, there was a big problem. The production listed, "Chained Twins" had been promised to the subscribers and prepaid but had come to a sudden halt. A production meeting with Chrissy, Regina and JJ revealed Chrissy's concerns. It was a pretty cliché storyline, but the idea was that the beautiful twins of Silk and Pepper would be the big attraction, so the story didn't matter much. At least that's what Regina and John thought. Chrissy, however, had a very different opinion.
The storyline was simple. Beautiful twins are in a bar celebrating their birthday. They get drunk and are obnoxious and are soon drugged, taken away and end up in a dungeon. There, they are tormented, whipped by a hard mistress and fucked endlessly by some masked men with huge cocks. Seemed simple enough, John thought.
"But I can't film this," Chrissy told John and Regina. "Val and Peggy are awful! They're too stiff. We just shot the barroom scene, and it sucks. The acting is awful," Chrissy ranted. "I can't work like this," she said in a temperamental tone. "Peggy is terrible. She thinks she's Meryl fucking Streep. And Val is just going through the motions. It won't sell. I want reality! Fear! Raw sex, like the earlier movies. They had it. I saw it. Val's very first films. They were powerful." Then her tirade came to a stop.
"What do you mean?" Regina said, totally confused by the discussion and Chrissy's artistic fit.
"Verisimilitude - I want it real. Most of these online videos with subscribers are really all the same. What made Hedonism's so special and so expensive was the rawness, the wildness of the passion. I'm sure Scott knew that. That's why they sold," Chrissy said.
"That's because we were all drugged out of our minds," Regina said. "Val was drugged, I was drugged..."
"Could I..." Chrissy started and then stopped.
"Wait. What are you suggesting?" What do you want to do? You want to drug both of them and film them?" John said.
"No. I don't want to just drug them. I want to kidnap them, keep them drugged in the dungeon, tied up for two days, and then film them. When they're terrified and out of their minds. Okay, so, maybe only two days of yellow and on the second day we add the pink," Chrissy said, now thinking through the process.
There was a long pause as John and Regina looked at each other and then back at Chrissy.
