Chapter 314 The Automated Package(Erotica):>Ep2
- Before she could remove her hands from the holes on either side of the box, she felt something pressing against her fingers from the inside. It was like a soft pad, but it was pushed firmly, wedging her fingers against the inside of the cardboard. For a moment it seemed trivial, like the contents of the box had shifted inadvertently, but as Sarah tugged and struggled to release her fingers from either side of the box she began to panic a little. The cardboard gave no give at all, she was stuck.
- Suddenly, the left and right sides of the box fell open neatly on hinges, and some complex steel and blue plastic rods peeped out. A mechanism extended out of either side of the package, the type that might hold up a desk lamp, adorned with springs and bolts at the joints, but rather than a bulb on the end, there were padded shackles which both swiftly swung around and clasped Sarah's wrists. She was stunned, still and silent in disbelief until all the panic rose up in her at once, fixated on the heavy box with metal arms coming out of the sides like a flat crab, clasping her wrists in pincers. She shrieked, frantically tugging her arms back and forth, but only succeeding in moving the box ever so slightly across the carpet. All the scrambling did was loosen her gown, falling open and slipping a little down her back.
- Now the rest of the cardboard canopied open, the top splitting into two down the middle as the complex apparatus of metal and plastic within were revealed. The cardboard seemed to be fused to the mechanisms as if it was an outer shell, now being brought to rest on the carpet to form a foundation for the device as it unfurled. The material certainly seemed stronger than normal cardboard, her fingers now released as the shell dismantled, but her wrists still held tightly in their cuffs. She was forced to watch helplessly and in awe as articulate arms moved with hydraulic choreography.
