His Lady of the Night

Chapter Six


" Jake, are you still there?" Olivia anxiously asked. She didn't question how she could hear him in her mind, she was just so elated that the feelings of aloneness she'd felt since the goons had left was now gone.

Jake jerked away from his thoughts, though he lay there still as death a finger nevertheless twitched at the sound of her voice entreating him to answer her. " Yes Cara, I'm still here. I will not leave you," he promised. " Tell me, have you remembered when we first met?"

Olivia blushed scarlet and Jake chuckled. " Well, Cara? Are you going to answer me?" he teased.

Olivia shook her head emphatically then realized he couldn't see her. " No. I don't remember," she stated.

" Whom are you trying to convince my love, me or you?" he asked. " I was in your mind last night as you delved in your memories for our first meeting at the zoo. You recall the tiger don't you?"

" I've never been to the Bronx Zoo!" exclaimed Olivia as her whole body shuddered at the erotic memory.

Outright laughter greeter her, " I didn't mention the Bronx Zoo," replied Jake mischievously.

Suddenly, Olivia stiffened as she heard sounds outside the door. " Jake!" she exclaimed, " They're coming back! What do I do?"

" Stay calm Livvie, they will not hurt you," replied Jake.

" How do you know they won't hurt me? I'm tied to a chair Jake; they can do whatever they want! No one will even hear my cries since I'm gagged, and besides in the part of town I'm in, nobody would even care," Olivia angrily said.

" I know because they did not kidnap you for themselves, they did it for another," stated Jake.

" Another? You mean this Julius guy?" she queried.

" Yes," said Jake. " Now I want you to do what I tell you. When they come into the room, I want you to look at them so I can see them through your eyes," he ordered.

Olivia frowned as she watched the doorknob slowly turn. " You can do that?" she asked skeptically.

" Yes. That is only one of the small things I can do. When we join, you will also have this ability."
" Join…" she began.

" I will explain everything tonight, my love," said Jake as the door opened and the two goons entered.

The man with the dead eyes approached and tested her bindings while the other grabbed another chair and set it in front of her. He then placed a tray on it and backed away. Heeding Jake's orders, Olivia just stared at them. Suddenly the man with the dead eyes began to shake slightly, then more and more.

"Christ, what's happening to me?" he yelled as he looked at his confederate.

Dazed, the other man just stared, stunned. His eyes grew double their size as he watched his cohort's face begin to swell like a melon. He looked over at Olivia; her green eyes were trained on dead eyes. Suspicion set in, he pulled out his gun and aimed it on her.

"Stop what you're doing to him!" he yelled at her. "Or I'll shoot you right now. Screw the Master; he'll just have to find another woman with your rare blood," he threatened.

Eyes wide with terror, Olivia kept shaking her head, trying to convey that it wasn't her doing this. The man stalked over to her and pulled the gag out.

Mouth dry, she squeaked out, "It's not me!"

"Of course it's you!" growled the man, "there's nobody else here. The Master said you had powers so it's gotta be you."

Suddenly, the man's arm pulled away from her. The hand holding the gun twisted around to point at his chest. Startled, the man tried to let go of his firearm but it was as if his fingers were glued to the handle. Terror entered his eyes as he saw his finger slowly pull on the trigger.

His panicked gaze jumped to Olivia's, "Please lady, don't do this! I don't want to die!" he implored her.

Olivia shook as she stared in horror at the two men. " What's happening Jake?" she cried out tears spilling over onto her cheeks.
