Most of the story takes seat in a elbow room in a house called 'The Pigeonhole', which the narrator, `` Deepak ``, converts into a kind of erotic torturing bedchamber equipped with bottom to which women can be strapped and held helpless and which is soundproofed to make their screams unheard. Other equipment includes corduroy and pulleys, flagellation implements and a mechanical `` Chair of perfidy '' to which helpless female person are lured to be restrained in.

from the Dairy of Mr. Deepak Kumar..

I will not take on up the meter of my readers by detailing the condition under which Leah, roused in me the desire for retribution which resulted in the way I adopted and which I am about to relate. Suffice it then to say that Leah cruelly and unjustifiably jilted me ! In my acerbity of liveliness, I swore that if I ever had an opportunity of getting storage area of her, I would pass water her voluptuous someone recompense me for my dashing hopes and that I would snatch from her by personnel the bridegroom 's privileges that I so ardently coveted. But I had to dissemble ! Leah and I had many common friends to whom this rupture was unknown.

We were therefore constantly meeting each early, and if I gave her the svelte hint of my intentions towards her, it would be disastrous to the very dubitable chances of achiever that I had ! And so successfully did I conceal my real feelings under a cloak of generous acceptance of her action that she had not the timid idea ( as she afterwards admitted to me ) that I was playing a part.

But, as the saw says, everything comes to the man who can wait. For some considerable time, it seemed as if it would be wise on my part to vacate my desire for vengeance, as the fortune of our daily lives were such as did not promise the removed probability of my getting monomania of Leah under conditions of either place or time suitable for the accomplishment of my intention. Nevertheless, I controlled my patience and hoped for the unspoiled, enduring as well as I could the torture of unsatisfied desire and increasing lust.

It then happened that I had occasion to change my residence, and in my search for fresh accommodation near my college in UK, I came across a humble retinue of a sitting-room and two bedrooms which would by themselves have suited me excellently ; but with them, the landlord desired to let what he termed a box or lumber-room. I demurred to this addition, but as he remained house, I asked to see the way. It was most funny both as regards access and visual aspect. The old was by a short transit from the landing, furnished with remarkably well-fitting door at each end. The room was nearly square, of a good size and lofty, but the paries were unploughed, write by the one entering, light and air being derived from a skylight, or rather lantern, which occupied the smashing voice of the ceiling and was supported by four potent and hardy wooden pillars.

Further, the rampart were thickly padded, while Fe rings were let into them at regular distances all round in two dustup, one conclusion to the floor and the other about a height of eight foot ; from the roof beams dangled rophy pulleys in pair between the mainstay, while the two recesses on the ingress side, caused by the protrusion of the passageway into the way, looked as if they had at one time been separated from the rest of the room by bars, almost as if they were cells. So unknown indeed was the appearance of the unharmed room that I asked its history, and was informed that the sign had been built as a private lunatic sanctuary at the time when the now unfashionable square in which it stood was one of the centres of way, and that this was the old 'mad-room'in which violent patients were confined, the dash, doughnut and pulleys being used to restrain them when very trigger-happy, while the padding and the double doorway made the room absolutely soundproof and prevented the ravings of the yard bird from annoying the neighbour. The landlord added that the soundproof quality was no fiction as the room had frequently been tested by incredulous visitors.

Like lightning the thought flashed through my brain. Was not this way the very place for the consummation of my scheme of revenge ? If I succeeded in luring Leah into it, she would be completely at my clemency, for her scream for help would not be heard and would only increase my pleasure, while the dash, annulus, pulleys, etc., supplemented with a little suitable furniture, would enable me to secure her in any way I wished and to hold her fixed while I amused myself with her. Delighted with the theme, I agreed to include the room in my suite.

Quietly, but with bass forethought and preparation, I got certain article of furniture made which, while in outward coming into court most free, as well as most prosperous, was in truth wide-cut of conceal mechanisms planned for the limited discomposure of any adult female or young woman that I might wish to hold in physical mastery. I had the floor covered with thick Persian carpets and rugs, and the two alcove converted into token photographic laboratories, but in a way that made them desirable for lavatories and dressing-rooms. When completed, the 'Pigeonhole'( as I christened it ) was in coming into court a distinctly moderately and well-situated room, while in realness it was nothing more or lupus erythematosus than a mask torture bedroom !

And now came the difficult part of my scheme.

How to ensnare Leah ? Unfortunately she was not residing in British capital but a footling way out. She lived with a married sister, and never seemed to come to town except in her sister 's company. My difficulty was therefore how to get Leah by herself for a sufficiently foresightful time to accomplish my innovation, and sorely I cudgelled my brains over this trouble !

The babe frequently visited town at guerrilla time interval as dictated by the contingence of social duties or shopping. True to my policy of having favorable relations I had welcomed them to my rooms for rest period and refreshment and had encouraged them to use my quartern ; and partly because of the propinquity of the rooms to Regent Street, partly because of the very squeamish meal I invariably placed before them, but mainly because of the soothing restfulness induced by the sheer tranquillity of the pigeonhole after the roaring and upheaval of the streets, it soon became their regular practice to observe me with their society for luncheon or tea whenever they came to town and had no special engagement. I need hardly add that secretly I hoped these visits might bring me an opportunity of executing my revenge, but for some calendar month I seemed doomed to disappointment.

I used to digest the anguish of Tantalus when I saw Leah unsuspectingly braving me in the very room I had prepared for her violation, within existent reach of me and of conceal machinery that would place her at my disposal, did I set it working, were it not for her baby 's presence ! In fact, so keenly did I experience the spatial relation that I began to design the capture of both baby together, to include Lana in the punishment designed for Leah, and the mind in itself was not graceless, as Lana was a fine specimen of distaff flesh and blood of a heavy and more stately type than Leah ( who was 'petite'), and one could do much worse than cause her at one 's administration for an hour or two to feel and have intercourse ! So seriously did I toy with this project, that I got an armchair made in such a way that the releasing of a secret catch would set free people mechanisms that would be actuated by the weight of the occupant and would cause the arms to fold inwards and firmly put away the brood hen. Furnished with luxurious upholstery and the arrest fixed, it made the most inviting of electric chair, and from its first show, Leah took self-will of it, in happy ignorance that it was intended to hold her firmly imprisoned while I tackled and secured Lana !

Before, however, I resorted to this desperate criterion, my solitaire was rewarded ! And this is how it happened.

One evening, the familiar note came to say the sis were coming to Town on the next day and would amount for lunch. A trivial before the appointed minute Leah, to my surprise, appeared alone ! She said that, after the preeminence had been posted, Lana became ill and had been very poorly all night and so could not hail to townsfolk, though in effect. The shopping battle was one of considerable importance to Leah, and therefore she had come up alone ; she had called to explain topic to me, but would not stop to luncheon, she would get a cup of tea and a bun somewhere.

Against this desertion of me, I vigorously protested, but I doubt if I would give birth induced her to stay had not a smarting shower of rainwater come on. This made her hesitate about going out into it with the dress she was wearing, as it would be ruined, and finally she consented to let lunch and leave immediately afterwards.

While she was away in the spare bedroom used by the sisters on their visit, I was in a bona fide agitation of upheaval ! Leah in my elbow room by herself ! It seemed too trade good to be admittedly ! But I remembered I yet had to get her into the pigeonhole ; she was absolutely dependable from my designs everywhere but there ! But it was imperative that she should be in no way alarmed, and so, with a unattackable effort, I controlled my panting exhilaration, and by the time Leah rejoined me in the dining-room I was my usual self.

Lunch was quickly served. At first off, Leah seemed a little nervous and restrain, but by kid-glove conversation, I soon set her at comfort and she then chatted away naturally and merrily. I had craftily placed her with her back to the window so that she should not note signs that a bad storm was brewing : and soon, with satisfaction, I saw that the atmospheric condition was getting worse and bad ! But it might at any moment begin to realize away, and so the sooner I could get her into my cubbyhole, the better for me - and the worse for her ! So, by every substance in my power, I hurried on the procedure of lunch.

Leah was leisurely finishing her coffee berry when a rattling of rain against the window panes, followed by an forbidding growling of boom, made her start from her death chair and go to the casement. 'Oh ! just look at the rain !'she exclaimed in dismay, 'how very unfortunate !'

I joined her at the window : 'By Jove, it is bad !'I replied, then added, 'and it looks like lasting. I hope that you have no important engagement for the afternoon that will keep you much in the open ?'As I spoke, there came a brilliant flash of lightning closely followed by a roll of thunder, which sent Leah staggering backwards with a scare away face.

'Oh !'she exclaimed, evidently frightened ; then, after a pause ,'I am a hideous picayune coward about thunderstorms : they just terrify me !'

'Wo n't you then take on refuge in the Pigeonhole ?'I asked with a host 's look of concern .'I do n't think you will see the lightning there and you certainly wo n't find out the thunder, as the way is soundproof. Shall we go there ?'and I opened the door invitingly.

Leah hesitated. Was her guardian angel trying to consecrate her a premonitory tip of what her lot would be if she accepted my seemingly innocent suggestion ? But at that moment came another photoflash of lightning, blinding in its intensity level, and almost simultaneously a hollo of thunder. This settled the inquiry in my party favor ! 'Yes, yes !'she exclaimed, then ran out. I closely following her, my heart beating exultingly ! Quickly she passed through the double doors into the Pigeonhole, the yap I had so carefully set for her ! Noiselessly I bolted the outer door, then closed the inner one. Leah was now mine ! mine ! ! At last I had entrapped her ! Now my vengeance was about to be consummated ! Now her chaste virgin self was to be submitted to my lustfulness and compelled to satisfy my erotic desires ! She was utterly at my mercy, and promptly I proceeded to run my cruel will on her !
