A good piece of writing, with a certain poetic quality. But is her captor human or alien? And why would he dress her up in lingerie? Stockings and lacy thongs are an artifact of 20th century western culture. I\'m not sure if a being from another planet would necessarily find them stimulating. (8/10)

I loved the slow, building quality of the piece.
I could not help but wonder if her Masters were man or animal? Or how she ended up on this world.
Thank you. (9/10)

An interesting story, short but rich. The beginnings are a little slow, but pick up as the plot develops. You can almost see the emotional confusion of the girl as she performs her task for a master. A slave, but with a free mind.
As are we all. (9/10)

Excellent! A calm, dense story, with an interesting bit of sci-fi. One could really imagine the girl\'s feelings. (10/10)

Consistent theme of mind gaming makes this an enjoyable read. On the down side this story may be perhaps a bit derivative or evocative to the point of distraction, but that is merely a minor quibble. (8/10)
