i like your title, it makes a person stop and wonder what's up. also, the 'lisp' Cecelia has appears to be a result of her perverted father's abuse and makes it even more realistic.
only thing wrong that i see are the gigantic words you use. is a guy who gets his tenses mixed up going to know words like 'granoblastically' or 'erogenous'?
other than that, great job. very disturbing.
Maturity is the discovery that the volume knob also turns to the left.

Kind of disturbing and graphic, but a good read nonetheless. Innocent, charming Cecilia was a great foil for her domineering, possessive father. The introduction of the story was well done; you whetted my curiousity without giving much away. With every peice of information the narrator revealed about himself, the more suspenseful the story became--and the more I found myself rooting for Hugh.

Two complaints I have, however are:
1) I don't really think this story was suitable for kids under, what, fourteen? Could you please put that in the subject heading of your story? The "bedroom" descriptions were a little...well, strong at times. Thanks.
2) I wasn't a fan of the big vocabulary you used. Just my opinion.
i thought you were shallow, but then i fell in deep.
