Judges 19–21. The account of the Levite and his concubine: A Levite from the hill country of Ephraim goes to retrieve his concubine from her father’s house in Bethlehem. On their return journey, they stop for the night in Gibeah, a Benjamite town. The townsmen surround the house, demanding to “know” the man (sexual violence implied, similar to Genesis 19 with Lot). The host refuses and offers his own virgin daughter and the Levite’s concubine instead. The mob abuses the concubine all night; she collapses at the doorway and dies by morning. The Levite tells her to get up, sees she’s dead, then cuts her body into twelve pieces and sends them throughout Israel to rally the tribes against Benjamin. | ||

Yes, the story I'm referring to also features veiled homosexuality (the King is only alone with the assassin cause he thinks he's gonna fuck him) |
