That might not be entirely true. I’m still convinced someone—the XXXVII—managed to make a whole bunch of information about James Patrick Keyingham disappear, but I’m not a Keyingham…

Opening my eyes, I reach out and close the window, seeing Penny shiver as I turn back to her. “Sorry. I needed fresh air, and I couldn’t face the idea of leaving the room.”

Penny gives me a weak smile as she nods. “I get it.”

I’m still not feeling the cold, but I’m aware that the room temperature has dropped, even with the heating fighting against the open window. I move back to Penny’s bed, waiting as she dives under the covers.

“What do you want to do about it? I will pay for a lawyer. Hell, I’ll—”

“Nothing,” I tell her.

“Nothing?” Penny wrinkles her nose. “You mean… nothing?”

Syn… Gemini… Even Royal, if it was him… they all have money and power. And from Syn’s threats last night, even if I thought there was something I could do about this, I’m not dragging Penny into it.

“I told you last night that I’m done. Regardless of whether that video was posted without my consent, what I did in the video—it’s clear I’m enjoying it. Weird as it sounds, at least I had blue hair, so maybe, I might be able to find a job and have no one recognize me.” I run my hand through the offending hair in question. “It’s embarrassing, and there’s a part of me that wants to go back home and never leave my apartment again, but I’m not giving him that satisfaction.”

“People make sex seem so dirty, especially if the woman is daring to enjoy herself,” Penny says, then frowns. “But you weren’t alone in that video.”

“Can I see it?” I hold my hand out.

Penny shifts her weight to use her body as a physical blocker between me and her pillow. “I’m not sure that’s a good idea.”

“I’m in it, Pen. I know exactly what happens.”

“So why do you want to see it?”

“Why did you let me watch it before but not now?”

Turning, Penny reaches for her phone, but she hesitates before handing it over. “You didn’t know what to expect before. I figure the shock will have made it a little less traumatic, but watching it now? You’re going to remember it all.”

“I know you said you didn’t watch much of it, but even wearing masks and cloaks, Syn, Royal and Gemini are pretty distinctive, right? Surely, you’d be able to see it’s them, and I know I said their names a few times. It just felt like releasing it was mutually assured destruction, so why…?”

Penny clutches the phone to her chest, frowning again. “When I said I didn’t watch it, I saw maybe a few seconds before I realized what it was, but there was no sound in those few seconds. I mean, there is, but it’s not you.”

I haven’t lowered my hand since I asked for the phone, and I wave it slightly. “Penny?”

She purses her lips before raising her phone to unlock it. “Look, I’ve seen you in your full naked glory, and let me assure you, that you’ve got nothing to be ashamed of, but any more of this is crossing into a whole new friendship zone. So if I was wrong, and that is you, I think we’d both appreciate it if you hit mute the second that happens, okay?”

Taking the phone from her, I nod. “Deal.”

After Penny purposely turns her head so she’s staring resolutely at the bathroom door, I hit play.

Almost at once, the sound of a woman moaning escapes the speaker. Penny, to her credit, had the volume low, but I know that’s not me. Aside from the fact I’m still just kneeling there, not saying anything, the woman, who sounds like she’s actually being fucked, starts crying “fuck baby, fill my pussy with your gorgeous cock.”

I hit pause. “That’s not me, I promise you.”

“Thank fuck.” Penny sighs as she visibly deflates. She doesn’t look back to me, though.

Down in the Crypt, I was aware of several cameras. I’d seen at least six angles when I watched the other initiates in the security room. The one I’m watching now isn’t the same one Gemini was watching. His, like this one, didn’t cut between the different cameras, but his had been more from my side. From that angle, it was a little easier to see everyone.

The one in this video was almost straight on. Occasionally, someone’s body blocks me, but it’s only through a process of elimination that I’m able to work out who it is in the shot. Even when you can see one or more dicks, you can’t tell who it belongs to.

I stop the video and then rotate the phone. The video isn’t playing through a group chat, but on one of the most recognizable porn sites. It’s already racked up a painful view count, and if I was holding out any hope for a vague semblance of anonymity before, it’s obliterated by the video’s title.

The video is nearly forty minutes long, which means Syn uploaded the whole thing. He’s not held back on the tags, either.
