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.
