The howling wind whipped his jacket and ruffled his hair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once on the curb, he checked his wristwatch: 7:52. He had a little time before the library closed for the night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The exterior lights on both sides of the library\u2019s double doors glowed yellow-white in the blustery, autumn evening. The tall windows that fronted the building seemed warm from the interior lighting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald was rushing to check out this book again or at least not be fined for returning it late. He believed the cost may be merely quarters now, but enough change saved would eventually be enough to buy a cup of coffee\u2014someday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He grabbed the handrail and leaped up the granite stairs in his loafers and tweed jacket to the large front doors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inside, he rushed through the foyer to the forever-long room of packed bookshelves. Rows and rows of classic literature, mysteries, thrillers, science fiction, memoirs, nonfiction, paranormal romance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He stopped at the librarian\u2019s desk when he saw his favorite genre: fantasy.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMs. Duncan! I\u2019m so glad you\u2019re here.\u201d He huffed and patted his chest as if he actually had raced there. He ran his fingers through his dark hair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHi, Gerald,\u201d she said flatly. She sat in front of a cube-shaped computer monitor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI need to renew this book before I get dinged a late charge.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He handed her <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Memory Librarian<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Duncan took the book and, over her thin eyeglasses, glanced up to him. \u201cYou can do this online, you know, right?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI don\u2019t trust technology. This book tells me not to.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The woman pushed her glasses to the arched bridge of her nose. She glossed over the cover and the back. She didn\u2019t smile.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIt does, huh? I didn\u2019t get that point from the author.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She scanned the reader on the library&#8217;s barcode taped to the book jacket. The reader gave a high-pitched chirp that echoed in the quiet room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere you go. Renewed. Going to read it again?\u201d she asked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThere is so much to uncover. Reading a book a second time peels back more layers. Plus,\u201d he said, pointing his finger toward the ceiling as if he had a point to make, \u201cwhen a librarian has the power to choose which books should be available to the public, I\u2019ve got to know the intricacies of the librarian\u2019s mind games.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She still didn\u2019t smile. She was unamused.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOnline books are everywhere. Good modern fiction and literature. Great writers post short stories to blogs that a lot of people like to read. We librarians are not gatekeepers, Gerald.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The young man always felt a quick jolt in his heart and below when she said his name. And that was the second time it had come through her lips.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Finished renewing his book, Ms. Duncan stood and walked to a book cart nearby.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cGot a lot of books to restock,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/tiani-3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"image-banner alignnone wp-image-47308 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/tiani-3-lelo.jpg\" alt=\"lelo tiani sex toy\" width=\"930\" height=\"336\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/tiani-3-lelo.jpg 930w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/tiani-3-lelo-300x108.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/tiani-3-lelo-768x277.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/tiani-3-lelo-770x278.jpg 770w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She didn\u2019t respond.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald noticed a single, thin book that was obstructed by the big monitor. He reached over the counter and picked it up. The title was <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Savor the Wild<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. On the cover was a half-naked man-beast rising high over a thin, scantily clad woman in a dramatically terrified pose. A paper bookmark from the Williston Falls Public Library poked out from the top.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMs. Duncan, you forgot one.\u201d He waved it overhead.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She snatched the book and mumbled, \u201cGimme that.\u201d She jammed it between two books on the cart.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald thought she grabbed it a bit too quickly and angrily and hid it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The librarian attempted to heave the heavy cart forward. It didn\u2019t budge though. She shoved it again with a grunt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNeed some help?\u201d he asked gladly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNo,\u201d she said, with a biting tone. Then she spoke somewhat gentler. \u201cIt\u2019s this one wheel that hates to roll.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She kicked the solid roller with one of her feet in a Birkenstock sandal. She again leaned forward and heaved. As her droopy bohemian dress shifted with her power-push stance, Gerald noticed the skulls and ravens on her gray goth socks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With another push, the cart lurched ahead. She continued to muscle it forward to keep the momentum.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald offered himself again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDon\u2019t overwork yourself. Don\u2019t be Sisyphus. Being a librarian isn\u2019t punishment.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He moved next to her, putting his hands on the cart. Their shoulders brushed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHow far do we need to go?\u201d he asked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She halted and straightened up. Her pale cardigan drooped over her, like melted vanilla ice cream. The sleeves of the sweater covered most of her hands<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNot far,\u201d she said. \u201cNow, Gerald \u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, before she could say anymore, her tiny, analog wristwatch beeped twice. \u201cThe library&#8217;s closing. I need to lock the door.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald picked up a ring of jangling keys. \u201cI&#8217;ll do it. I&#8217;ll lock the door.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou can\u2019t, because I need you out, when I lock it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She held out her hand.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He noticed a wicked dragon wrapped around her ring finger.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He plopped the keys into her palm, silencing the jangle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNow, go, Gerald.\u201d She whisked him to the foyer, like a mother getting her rambunctious kid out of her house. \u201cShoo, fly, shoo.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The tall, heavy doors of the library clanked shut behind Gerald, followed by a disturbing dungeon-esque lock. He was left on the steps in the brisk evening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMy book!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald almost knocked so he could get it but decided it would only bother her more than he had done already. He had frustrated her in only a few minutes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a caf\u00e9 scented with dark, roasting coffee, Gerald sat with his friend Otto, who had paid for their hot drinks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhy do I do this?\u201d Gerald moaned. \u201cWhy can\u2019t I be normal around her? I just want to be normal.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe\u2019re not normal, man. I&#8217;ve never had a girlfriend, and you neither, and we&#8217;re sophomores.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald exhaled through his nose. \u201cI should never have told you that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe&#8217;re probably the only ones,\u201d Otto continued. \u201cAnd then you&#8217;re trying to bang Ms. Duncan\u2014you are insane. Your chances are nil.\u201d He dragged his hand across his neck, as if gruesomely slicing it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald stirred his coffee with a thin spoon and then clinked the stirrer on the rim of the cup. \u201cI guess you\u2019re right.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI mean she\u2019d only get down with, like, Ed Cullen or Tim Burton. Edward Scissorhands might spread her legs.\u201d Otto laughed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cShe does have this goth vibe. I&#8217;ve imagined her with Robert Smith\u2014you know from the Cure. Or doing it with everyone in that band Type O Negative.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Otto flung himself against the back of his seat dramatically and flailed his arms. \u201cThe fuck are you talking about!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The patrons in the small caf\u00e9 glared at Otto because of his outburst.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He apologized with a quick wave and a frown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis place is too close to the library\u2014all these quiet people,\u201d Otto muttered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He turned to Gerald. \u201cYou can\u2019t just imagine Ms. Duncan with another guy\u2014worse a \u2018goth gangbang.\u2019 You\u2019re doing yourself a disservice. It relegates you to a wallflower who is left to only jerk off.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald flipped off Otto.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBut all the guys on campus and the professors and the rock bands she likes to see\u2014what chance do I have?\u201d Gerald nibbled on his lip and scrunched his nose.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou haven&#8217;t been looksmaxxing, have you?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald glared at Otto. Otto clapped and laughed in his humor, again rocking in the shaky chair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Someone shushed him. This time, he didn\u2019t pay attention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cTrying to use those brain-rot terms. You Urban Dictionary slut,\u201d Gerald hissed. \u201cYou\u2019re like ten years behind the world. Stupid ass.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald then quieted. He stared at the slowly turning ceiling fan. \u201cI&#8217;ll tell you brain rot won\u2019t help me in laying Ms. Duncan. Quite the opposite.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cListen, toss the flag. Give up the play. You\u2019ll survive a ten-yard penalty,\u201d Otto said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He looked at Otto.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cFootball, you\u2019re talking football? That&#8217;s as stupid. And I think you used it in the wrong way.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMy roommate watches the sport religiously. What am I supposed to do? I pick things up quickly.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNot everything,\u201d Gerald said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald leaned back in his chair, which felt weak enough that the back could separate from the seat at any moment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat is my plan going forward?\u201d Gerald said, while again watching the turning ceiling fan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe question to ask is: What would Poe do?\u201d Otto offered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald sat up and slapped the tabletop. \u201cPoe! Yes, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Savor The Wild<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">! That\u2019s it!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe fuck are you\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They were shushed again by a woman who sat against the wall reading a thick book.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMs. Duncan is reading it. I could read it too.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cSuch a chump,\u201d Otto charged. \u201cHow about this: Do an interview with a vampire!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald rocked his head side to side and bounced his eyebrows, considering it briefly. \u201cThat\u2019s a good idea too.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAnne Rice might know something.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBut I bother her too much when I\u2019m there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWho, Anne Rice?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNo. Ms. Duncan,\u201d he said. \u201cI&#8217;m a nuisance, and I feel bad about it. I want to be normal around her.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cReading the same book is smartest. Safest too. Start there. Poe would have done something way too weird.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a moment, Gerald found <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Savor The Wild<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> online and bought it. \u201cShould have it tomorrow.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Otto looked at an image of the book cover on the website. \u201cStrange,\u201d he said and then read the blurb about the book. \u201cA sex-crazed monster is bound to lose his form if it cannot possess a woman \u2026\u201d He stopped reading. \u201cShe has bad taste in books.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cShe&#8217;s got a little erotica in her blood. I can\u2019t complain about that.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMaybe she needs a little Otto in her pussy.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald pointed at his friend across the table. \u201cBack off, bitch.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Otto paused for a moment. He straightened up and looked toward the menu over the barista. His forehead wrinkled. Gerald knew something was concocting in his mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Otto&#8217;s attention returned to Gerald.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou need to meet my uncle. He may have some answers on what to do.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAnswers on how to get down with Ms. Duncan?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHe knows things\u2014stranger things!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next day, they were at Otto\u2019s uncle&#8217;s house. Otto sat in a hard chair, and Gerald sat in an old recliner. The springs in the seat had been worn flat, leaving a deep crater. Worse, it had a scent of mothballs and tobacco smoke.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The dimly lit room had framed pictures that chronicled the life of a smiling couple. As young newlyweds, the bride was in her white gown, and the groom was in a dark suit. They stood beside a 1959 Cadillac Coupe de Ville.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Across the room sat Otto&#8217;s old uncle, Buzz Meadows. The man mashed tobacco into his Bent Billiard smoking pipe. He was wrinkled and had a dreariness, or some darkness, around his eyes. Gerald likened it to his smoking habit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBut you know some voodoo stuff, don\u2019t you? Mom says,\u201d Otto said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cVoodoo,\u201d Uncle Buzz said, frustrated. \u201c\u2018Voodoo\u2019 ain\u2019t what it\u2019s been. Your mother calls it that. Too rude a description. She always was that way, always rude. Didn\u2019t know much.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uncle Buzz lightly tapped the pipe on the arm of his rocking chair, and he mashed more tobacco into the end of the pipe.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI do research. Only a few twists and some extra spices and things added. That&#8217;s what she might liken to say is \u2018voodoo.\u2019\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Listening to them, Gerald was unsure what this gray-haired man was talking about.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYeah, so,\u201d Otto said, \u201cyou think Gerald can use it to get to the librarian? I mean, can you help him with your research.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald moved from the crater to the edge of his seat.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI really need your help, Mr. Meadows. I do. I can\u2019t think of anything else.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cA woman. Ah, yes, the days,\u201d Uncle Buzz said, pointing to the wall of framed, black-and-white photos. His eyes lingered on the wedding picture. \u201cJulia. My wife\u2014forty-seven years. She was one who would lose control when the winds came to Williston here. Could never understand.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald and Otto glanced at each other, confused about what he meant. Otto only shrugged.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uncle Buzz lit the tobacco with the single match and, with a few drags, made gray smoke rise from the end of the pipe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYep, sir, it might. This may be the year,\u201d Uncle Buzz said looking at the smoke from his pipe. \u201cI can see it come near time. The winds, they\u2019re getting strong. Seen a few trees cracked. None blowed down nor a house resettled, like had been the case years back.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He grinned and puffed several times.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis whatever-it-is, I never understood. Could never comprehend. Only heard once the name Zulmanu from Julia. Said it in her sleep when winds were high. These winds make people go crazy\u2014women, that is. They go insane, hysterical.\u201d He drew circles at his temple with the end of his pipe.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThey just can\u2019t stop going.\u201d Uncle Buzz shook his head. \u201cAlways thought they get kind of scared. And pant, good god, they pant like animals, for sure. My Julia did. Bought her a kerchief one time. That got her miffed, so vinegary.\u201d He grinned. His face lightened for a moment. It darkened quickly though.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He then smoked and made the guys wait. All the while, Gerald was itching to get some useful information for his situation with Ms. Duncan.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI\u2019m never to be sure about this woman-thing. Travels with winds but does it always come with the winds\u2014don\u2019t think it does. The women ain\u2019t crazy every year, just every few years\u2014three, four, five.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He blew out the heavy smoke from the corner of his mouth, opposite where the pipe hung over his bottom lip.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cToo hard to tell the future. I never been able to figure out a pattern or a real trigger to know for sure it\u2019s come. My \u2018voodoo&#8217; never told me. But it&#8217;s here. Shows up. Then gone. One night, maybe. Maybe more. Always glad it was gone. My house calmed after. Me and the wife were ordinary again. Sweet. Back to cooking and cleaning. I could read the paper in peace.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He took a few more puffs from his pipe. A gray cloud surrounded his head and shoulders. To Gerald, the swirls of smoke looked unnatural. He thought they looked voodoo-like.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald leaned back when the spreading tobacco cloud began to bother his eyes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWell, what can we\u2014he\u2014do?\u201d Otto asked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cStay with the woman,\u201d Uncle Buzz said flatly, as if the answer was obvious.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald then sat forward again. \u201cShe doesn\u2019t want to be with me. I annoy her.\u201d He ran his fingers through his hair. \u201cCan you make me a man who she wants to \u2026 I mean, a man who she likes a lot? Possess me or her,\u201d Gerald suggested with voodoo in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe winds. They will show what to do. That\u2019s all. Everything.\u201d And Uncle Buzz continued to smoke, clouding up the room.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After a few minutes of quietness, awkwardness, frustration, and reddened eyes, Gerald and Otto stood.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThanks, Uncle Buzz, for the help.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYep, thanks.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As Gerald sped down the highway in his car, he emptied his frustration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat was a complete waste of time and gas.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYeah, I\u2019m upset he wouldn\u2019t help. He&#8217;s, like, a voodoo doctor, Mom says, and he can\u2019t help his own family? Won&#8217;t help. Evil is very selfish.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald continued driving.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI don\u2019t know what to do next,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThat was my second best idea. I guess it\u2019s back to reading the book,\u201d Otto said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYeah, anyway, I even need to pick up the book I left at the library. I wanted to wait until she was\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There was a loud crack and a boom among the forest beside the road. Otto pointed through the windshield.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLook out! It\u2019s fall\u2014!\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald yanked the steering wheel to the left, slinging them wildly in the car. There was a terrifying screech of the tires, and a deep smash. In an instant, they were stopped and facing the way they had just been driving. Blocking the road, only feet before them, was a thick, old tree. Its trunk was split and its orange autumn leaves were smattered all over the paved road\u2014even on the car&#8217;s hood and windshield.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The pair panted. Their mouths open and eyes wide. They stared at what might have just killed them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOh, shit!\u201d Gerald wheezed. \u201cDid that just happen or am I dreaming?\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe were nearly \u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMm-hmm.\u201d Gerald&#8217;s hands still were squeezing the steering wheel. His knuckles were white.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Neither spoke the rest of the trip back to campus. That night, Gerald lay on his narrow bed, staring at the ceiling. A detailed image of the fallen tree was stamped on his mind. Along with that image, the strong winds and thunderstorm through the night kept him awake. The rain pelted his window and a tree branch scraped against it. The winds and the fallen tree. He thought of Uncle Buzz and what he could never figure out about his wife and the strong winds this time of year.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/enigma-cruise\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"toy-banner alignnone wp-image-46092 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/high-tech-vibrators.jpg\" alt=\"customizable vibrators\" width=\"849\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/high-tech-vibrators.jpg 849w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/high-tech-vibrators-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/high-tech-vibrators-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/high-tech-vibrators-770x385.jpg 770w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 849px) 100vw, 849px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All the next day, he was exhausted, but, late that evening, he went to the library to get the book he had left behind.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He walked into the large, quiet room. The place had a sense of an apparition. Dark corners. A black curtain covering the ceiling. He thought the librarians were prepping for a Halloween party for the kids or simply playing up the autumn season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through the large windows of the librarian\u2019s office, he saw Ms. Duncan. She came to the front desk.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald noticed the whites of her eyes were bloodshot as if she had allergies or had been crying.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNeed anything?\u201d she asked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThese storms have been bad. They&#8217;re worse than I have seen before.\u201d He held up his wet ball cap. \u201cDrenched. And it was almost blown off my head.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBad storms, very\u2014\u201d She took in a deep breath. \u201c\u2014very bad.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald studied the unsteadiness that she did not typically have. She wore the same droopy vanilla sweater. He noticed her fingers were reddened\u2014almost frostbite-red.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou, um \u2026 you left a book here the other day. I kept it for you.\u201d Ms. Duncan handed it to him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her hand looked shivering as if she was really cold.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAre you feeling all right?\u201d he asked. \u201cYou seem like \u2026 never mind.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cFine, but just like you said, this weather is affecting me. I can\u2019t keep my attention on my work. I want to run crazy.\u201d She patted her chest as if breathing heavily.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHas it happened before?\u201d he asked. He riffled the corners of the book&#8217;s pages nonchalantly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cNot in a long time. When I was young.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Uncle Buzz&#8217;s comments came to mind. The winds. An unsettled woman.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald glanced to the ceiling again. \u201cIs it darker in here than normal? I get this weird vibe.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He watched Ms. Duncan run her eyes over the rows of bookshelves, but she did not glance at the ceiling, where Gerald felt the dark heaviness. She seemed to keep her eyes from looking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He pointed. \u201cSee anything up there? Putting up some decorations?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Duncan only looked directly at him. \u201cNothing, no, nope, nothing is weird to me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He nodded but decided to poke around.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI need to do a search for a topic. I wondered if any books come to mind about something called \u2018Zulmanu\u2019?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Duncan took in a quick breath when he said that name. \u201cNope, never heard of it, no.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMind if I do some database searches?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWell, I guess.\u201d She checked her thin wristwatch. \u201cI guess you have time.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cZulmanu, that&#8217;s the name. I have trouble remembering it.\u201d So she could hear it, he repeated the name. \u201cZulmanu.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Miraculously, when he said it, the curtain above seemed to whisk away, disappear. The large room was brighter. The interior lights were warmer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As he walked to the computers, he glanced back at the lovely librarian. Her eyes were on him. They were fierce and piercing. Miffed, maybe. Vinegary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He sat at an outdated monitor. He typed Zulmanu.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A light above the bookshelves flickered and went dark.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald pressed Enter on the keyboard. Another library light flickered and went dark.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He wasn\u2019t so much concerned about what the computer uncovered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sorry, no entries were found for \u201cZulmanu&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald sat back in his chair. He rubbed his fingers over his chin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unsuspectedly, he jumped when two hands slid over each of his shoulders and around the base of his neck.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCan you help me \u2026 with the lights?\u201d Ms. Duncan asked, followed by a quick breath.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald stiffened. He remained steady, staring at the gleaming computer screen.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her hands were heavy and were not friendly. They were hot.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her hands stayed on him but then began to massage.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cHelp?\u201d His voice cracked. His heart was speed-beating, and his eyes unblinking. He gathered enough breath to ask again. \u201cHelp with?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her hands slid away, snake-like, and off of him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe lights. They just went out.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He heard her swallow and pull in a chest full of air.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Panting. Uncle Buzz. Julia. Craziness.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cSure.\u201d He pushed back his chair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Duncan stood before him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She obviously was not annoyed or wanting him to leave. He noticed her stretch her neck as if something was bothering her. A redness was rising up.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe ladder is in the maintenance room by the heater.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think, um, I know where it is,\u201d Gerald said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He rushed to the closet in the back of the library. He maneuvered the ladder through the door of the maintenance room. Even so, the ladder banged against the door frame.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He hauled it into the forever-long room of bookshelves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Duncan waited under the first burned-out light. She was looking up. Gerald noticed the light was above the paranormal romance section.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As he returned with the ladder, he felt that same curtain or darkness\u2014the odd presence\u2014was overhead again, somewhere up high.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDo you have a lightbulb to replace that one?\u201d he asked the entranced librarian.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He snapped his fingers right in front of her face to draw her attention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cA what?\u201d She was confused by Gerald&#8217;s question.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cA new lightbulb. We need one to replace the other or there&#8217;s no point of going up.\u201d Leaning against the ladder, he saw that her mind still was not focused on the light, changing it, or getting a new bulb.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAre you okay?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She pushed the sweater&#8217;s sleeves up her narrow arms. However, the sleeves slid right back down.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She pushed them up this time higher on her arm. They drooped again. Frustrated, she pulled off the sweater and threw it on the carpeted floor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald saw that the reddened skin on her neck covered her chest as well. Now her ears were turning too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her eyes ran up the ladder and toward the dark bulb.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI&#8217;ll go up.\u201d She spoke mindlessly, monotone.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She put her foot on the first rung. She wore her Birkenstocks and black socks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald touched her shoulder. \u201cIt\u2019s a long way up\u2014all the way to the top rung. I can\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But she didn\u2019t acknowledge him. She climbed and soon was higher than he was tall. However, she was staring at the ceiling, not the light.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite being concerned, he noticed he could see up her long, flimsy dress. She wore tiny panties that were caught awkwardly in her butt, likely from a long day of moving and shuffling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe need a lightbulb to replace this one,\u201d she said from the top of the ladder.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI told you that before.\u201d Gerald shook his head. \u201cWhere are they?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMaintenance, uh, room.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAll right. Be careful up there.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She didn\u2019t answer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald flicked on the light switch in the room and began to scrounge around on the shelves and inside boxes for a single bulb or a packet of them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Unexpectedly, he heard a heavy clack at the door. It sounded the same as the dungeon-esque lock that he heard when Ms. Duncan had kicked him out of the library at closing the other night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald stood up and leaned his head to the left at the goofy tactic.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMs. Duncan,\u201d he said flatly and rolled his eyes, \u201cis this a game\u2014locking me in here? I laughed, so now you can let me out. Game over.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There was no answer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He walked to the door and knocked. \u201cAnd I told you that you need to be careful going up and down that ladder when no one\u2019s there to help you. I don\u2019t want you hurt.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There still was no reply.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDid you hear me, Ms. Duncan? Did you?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He twisted the door handle. Locked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He knocked again. \u201cYou can open the door now. The joke is over with, Ms. Duncan. \u2026 Ms. Duncan? Ms. Duncan!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He put his ear against the door. \u201cHello?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A dark shadow passed by, casting a darkness briefly under the door and onto his feet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLet me out!\u201d he called. \u201cCome on, please?\u201d He pounded twice on the heavy, industrial door.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The darkness once again cast the shadow under the door and on his feet, but this time it didn\u2019t move. It remained there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald heard an oddly husky voice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIs it you?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It had to be Ms. Duncan. She was the only person in the library. He had never heard such a wanton tone from her.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYes, it&#8217;s me,\u201d Gerald said. \u201cI\u2019m in here. You locked me in.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDo you want me on my knees?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It sounded then as if Ms. Duncan gulped and struggled to restrain herself. Gerald couldn\u2019t quite tell from what, though. He was confused. Yet, the thought of what she had said to him\u2014being on her knees\u2014flipped his mind. It erected him, despite his circumstance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYes, definitely,\u201d Gerald said. \u201cBut it\u2019d be best if\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou\u2019re what I&#8217;ve wanted for so long.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat, really?\u201d Gerald pugged his nose at what she said, as if in disbelief.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI&#8217;ve heard about you. I&#8217;ve searched \u2026 searched for you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cUm, there are no books about me.\u201d Gerald gave a quick laugh at the absurd statement.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI believe in you when no one else does. I really do.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI&#8217;ve been here the whole time. Believing wasn\u2019t necessary,\u201d Gerald said. However, his voice trailed off in greater confusion at what Ms. Duncan had said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCan I have you?\u201d Ms. Duncan panted. \u201cI need you.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIf you let me out. I\u2019ll tell you true, I&#8217;ve wanted you for so long. I mean no other\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His voice was startled quiet by a long, aching groan. Ms. Duncan\u2019s groan was guttural. It was uncivilized, as if roused from the depths of the first creation, from the fundamentals of natural procreation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The door, which Gerald\u2019s cheek was pressed against, rocked in rhythm. Then her groans became grunts due to thrusts. He heard her bared butt slap and a series of continual dead thuds against the door.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Duncan attempted to speak, to compliment, to encourage. Yet, she didn\u2019t form the full words as thrusts jammed in her and her body banged against the closet door. She was left to mutter and mumble.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the muttering, he could tell her mouth couldn\u2019t close. She was feeling a sought-after pleasure. Gerald knew she was getting what she enjoyed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He thought of the curtain in the library and what Uncle Buzz had said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cMs. \u2026 Ms. Duncan,\u201d Gerald said through the door. \u201cWhat are you \u2026?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead of answering, the librarian screamed, \u201cOh my god! Yes!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Duncan huffed and gruffed. He heard a whine and then a collapse of the woman. She didn\u2019t speak, and he was silent. There were only, on her part, intense pants that quickly evolved into gentle coos and whimpers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then a small whirlwind filled the maintenance room, making the copy paper and bookmarks fly up and spread everywhere. A box of cleaning supplies spilled over and a steel work shelf toppled onto him. It pinned him against the door.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He pushed it aside. The clang and crack echoed in the room. It smelled like bleach and Pine-Sol. There was the airy explosion of lightbulbs in a box.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The twirl stopped. Everything settled. And then the door unlocked.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He pushed it open and found the librarian flattened on the floor. She was breathing sweetly but was exhausted. Her right leg was askew and the left was straight. Her knees were rug-burned. The hem of her dress was higher than her waist. She was naked from the waist down. Her black panties were caught around her left ankle.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her eyes opened. She smiled at seeing him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCome here.\u201d She urged him with her finger. She was slow in body and in speech, as if exhausted.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He stood over her and reached out for her hands to lift her off the floor. But her hands, instead, tugged at the dress until her slender breasts appeared. She was braless.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPut your mouth on them,\u201d she said, rolling her fingers over her nipples and stretching the pink flesh.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gladly, Gerald sucked on one while dallying with the other. Ms. Duncan cooed again and watched him move above her, attending to her weak body.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His tongue circled the long, oval areolas and his fingers drew lines from one breast to the other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Meanwhile her hand drifted down the front to his pants. She covered his dick with her hand, cupping it against the heavy fabric of his slacks.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cYou\u2019re hard,\u201d she said, speaking languidly although with a hint of surprise. \u201cBecause of me?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald took his mouth off of her. \u201cYes, always. You make me\u2014\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She interrupted. \u201cHelp me up. Take me to the Paranormal Romance section.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When up, she shook her panties off her ankle, as if it was a ball and chain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the section under the burnt-out light, Ms. Duncan passed between the bookshelves to a comfortable reading chair. She plopped down heavily.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She smiled wearily but had enough energy to peel open his pants. She bent down Gerald&#8217;s long erection. She flicked the very tip with her tongue. She flicked it against, like a cat getting milk from a bowl.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald had enough of the flicks though. He grabbed her hair and shoved his dick through her lips.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ms. Duncan heaved and gagged and her feet stamped on the floor at the deep and sudden thrust. Gerald held her hair tighter, dragging her warm mouth over his cock. She was working harder, although her fingers were digging into his legs to keep upright. Sloppy foam drooled over her lips and from the corners of her mouth. When she pulled off, his length was glistening in her spit.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He moved her off the chair and plopped into it. He grabbed her hips. She worked herself above him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald&#8217;s dick moved from the warm cove of the librarian&#8217;s mouth to her wet cunt.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Her pussy had him grimacing each time she rose and slammed down on him. He moaned and wailed as his fantasy fucked him. It went fast.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Suddenly, he shoved the heel of his hand in her back. He began to thrust upward wildly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He paused stiff. He yelled out, letting it echo in the quiet place. Ms. Duncan fell into his lap. She flung a leg over the arm of the chair.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald felt a warm stickiness drip onto his thigh. He realized what it was when Ms. Duncan moved. The woman on him pushed her finger into it. With a subtle twist at her waist, she shoved her long finger into Gerald&#8217;s mouth. He licked her finger clean. She offered him more. And he sucked hard to the point she giggled.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Soon, Gerald had an exhausted, unmoving woman resting on him. She only stared toward the ceiling. A smile was smeared over her face.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald broke the silence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat happened against the door? Who were you with?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cLove \u2026 a mystery \u2026\u201d Ms. Duncan said lethargically. \u201cSomeday &#8230; I may know.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI think I might.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She gave a soft laugh. \u201cI doubt it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Gerald saw the darkness hanging in the ceiling before it slithered away. The library became brighter and warmer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The winds in Williston Falls calmed after that night. It was years before they rushed through the town.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over the next weeks, Ms. Duncan was distant and comfortable around Gerald. She would dart her eyes. He thought her cheeks reddened when seeing him. She said very little when they had to interact. Gerald had hoped for more\u2014even mere companionship. There was nothing. She wouldn\u2019t allow it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She worked at the Williston Falls Public Library for a few more months. She left for Chicago. She would not say more than that Williston Falls was too strange.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After getting the news of her leaving, Gerald urged her, \u201cCome back and visit in the autumn sometime.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Enjoy this story more with 15% off <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">LELO.com<\/a> with code <span style=\"color: #800080;\">VOLONTE15<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gerald hop-skipped across Berry Street to the city library.
