chapter 8

8.

“So, are you enjoying yourself?” Virginia asked, putting the last of the half dozen double cheeseburgers on a silver platter not ten feet away from Shauna’s nose. She put the lid down and turned back to her prize, beaming. Chills roiled over Shauna’s bare skin as Virginia paced back and forth, eyes crawling over her softer body. Shauna stood naked in front of a wall length mirror, every ounce of her added fat on display.

“You must have been at least a little chubby in the past to manage 19 pounds in a month and a half. Impressive. I must have missed that in my research.”

Shauna glared, teeth clattering. It was hardly warmer than it was outside in the basement cell Virginia had repurposed into a weighing room. The humiliation of gaining 19 pounds had left her blushing, but that, and the new padding hardly helped her keep warm. The fat was all in her doughy middle and butt cheeks, softness only recently beginning to touch her sides and breasts. Shauna’s legs and arms were still stick thin and shivering, a fact Virginia was enjoying all too much.

“You don’t know anything about me,” Shauna cracked back, trying to keep the heavenly scent of the burgers out of her nostrils. Virginia only giggled, pinching at the ring of softness under Shauna’s navel and prompting a wince.

“I don’t know anything about you, really?” Virginia pulled her fingers apart and palmed the convex curve, rubbing slow circles in the expanded flesh. “I know you came from wealth, and found yourself conquering an online world to fuel your deviant desires. I know how you ended up here, and I know you're awfully hungry.” Virginia patted Shauna’s bare belly, a groaning growl sounding for not the first time at this weigh-in. Shauna’s stomach had already grown demanding after one month of hedonism, her prunes and oatmeal breakfast felt like an eternity ago.

“Your inner pig is already surfacing. I’m forcing you to become exactly what you made others into.”

Another growl. Her belly felt so hollow it was near painful, Shauna had to fight from rubbing at it. Giving Virginia the satisfaction would be too much.

“I’m going to force that belly to stretch out more every day. You’ll be able to eat meals meant for families. You’ll grow a thick suit of fat all over your body. Regardless of what you want, you'll be saddled with the appetite of a morbidly obese woman, your body will be ruined, keeping you fat forever.”

“Stop-” Shauna begged, that heat she felt the last time they talked was growing, she needed to shut out the warden’s words. By some gift, she did. But it wasn’t long before Shauna heard wheels rolling over the uneven concrete, the silver platter mocking her as it approached. The lid was pulled to reveal the half dozen cheeseburgers laying on a basket of fries. The deep fried fare steamed in the winter air.

“You want this piggy?”

Shauna shook her head no. Virginia maintained her cocky grin.

“That’s a lie and you know it. I’ll let you eat, after you admit one thing.”

Shauna’s stomach was rebelling, it desired- no, demanded the food, flooding Shauna with cravings so intense her knees nearly buckled. Whimpering, she reached out a hand. Before it could reach the first burger Virginia grabbed the softening digit.

“What are you?” Shauna looked blankly for a moment, but the answer was obvious. This was something she made all her subjects admit to her in the past. Still a part of her pushed back, not wanting to give up this last bit of control.

“I’,- I’m”

“C’mon…” Virginia cooed, patient. Another growl echoed around the room.

“I’m a pig, fine! I’m a pig, please stop-”

“Not a pig…” the warden twirled her fingers, trying to lead Shauna’s frayed mind forward.

“Your… pig….” Shauna mumbled, face so hot she thought it might melt off. Virginia beamed and pulled Shauna forward, pushing her face into the burgers. She grabbed her hips and caressed her rounding belly from behind, cooing in her ear.

“That’s a good piggy. Momma’s gonna get you nice and big for her. You just eat the good food now.”

Shauna mumbled approvingly through the greasy fair clogging her mouth. Virginia grinned and spanked her rear. The new jiggles Shauna felt rippling around her backside was enough of a scare to momentarily break her from her gorge, but a push down from behind was all she needed to start munching again.

“You didn’t answer my first question, by the way.” Virginia said as Shauna continued to eat. She mumbled something but Virginia only responded by reaching down her growing gut.

“That’s ok,” she said, slipping her finger into Shauna, “what I’m feeling here tells me all I need to know.”
