22 Nervous New Inmates Bending...

JC Cummings

Warning: Explicit Content. An ENF Submissive Female Story of Intense Humiliation: "The Lucky Gyno Clinic Custodian" Series. For a simple janitor, Forrest Franklin is a pretty smart guy. He has just landed himself a new job…at a women’s health clinic!

Well, as sweet luck would have it, this hard-working pervert is about to get way more than he bargained for when one of the doctors, the less-than-ethical Marty Thompson, asks for Forrest’s help—right in the exam room! And all Forrest has to do in exchange for that naughty privilege is a bit of handyman work at the doc’s house. Forrest is on cloud nine, helping the doctor out with all kinds of intimate and embarrassing examinations.

In this story of profound debasement, Forrest is grief-stricken when he learns that Dr. Thompson is retiring. What? No more women in paper johnnys? No more palpating, squeezing, or probing sweet, curvaceous flesh? No more cute, red cheeks or quivering extremities to adore?

Not quite. Dr. Thompson graciously hands Marty one final assignment guaranteed to stoke the flames of horniness within him. He is sent to the state prison where twenty-two fresh, new inmates need to be examined and cavity searched. Mmm…Forrest likes cavities!

And the vast majority of these particular cavities are of the highest quality! Oh, Forrest has his favorites, all right. There’s the sweet, innocent college chick with her tight, little curves. There’s the wide-hipped thirty-something who is without question one of the most nervous and humiliated women he’s ever had the pleasure of humiliating. And then there’s the buxom fifty-something who Forrest deems the most squeezable.

This is medical humiliation of the kind that a lifelong pervert like Forrest can really sink his teeth (er, hands) into!
