CHARLOTTEMy breathing deepens, my mood rapturous as my two Lovers seduce me. For too long we have not done this, but now...Michael, behind me, unzips my skirt, then his hands sliding down and inside, he pushes skirt and panties down to my feet in one smooth, practised movement. "Step," he murmurs, and I lift my feet, freeing myself, to stand naked between them.My Master glances over my shoulders. I know that look... he and Michael...He stoops, picking me up; carries me to the bed, then lays me carefully down, head on the pillow. The two of them, still fully dressed, stand over me, smiling down. Exchanging a glance, again my Master withdraws, leisurely unbuttoning his shirt. Michael sits beside me, sweeping his hands over my body."What would you like?" he says."You." I brush blond locks from his face. "I´ve missed you.""I never went away." He strokes the outline of my lips with a finger. "I´m sorry if it seemed otherwise." Then he stoops to kiss me again. His mouth
CHARLOTTEThe envelope contains two pieces of paper, both scanned copies of an original. Staring at them, for a few moments, I don´t understand what I am looking at.Then the haze clears...The first: ´This is to certify that on this day of 14th April 1992, Frank Conners did join in lawful wedlock with Michelle Kimberley... by mutual consent before witnesses..."The second: "This is to certify the following record of birth... Name: Jennifer Conners. Sex: Female. Name of Father: Frank Conners. Maiden Name of Mother: Michelle Kimberley..."I stare at them, my eyes filling. After a minute, I gasp, finding myself releasing breath I didn´t know I was holding, and I just sit there, not knowing how to react.Michael looks worried. "Hey, I didn´t mean to upset you. I thought you´d be pleased...""Oh, I am, I am," I stutter... "How... Where?"My Master´s voice is irritable. "Am I permitted to see what all this is about?"Silently I pass the documents across the table to him. A
MICHAELLater, when we are alone, "It´s very good of you, Richard, to put yourself out like this on Charlotte´s behalf. I appreciate that it´s in thanks for what she did for Beth, but nonetheless..."Raising his brows. "Don´t be fooled, Michael. Yes, it´s partly in thanks. She craves education and training. I´ll see that she gets it. But, I don´t have to bring her into my company as a ´thank you´. It´s mainly a cold commercial decision on my part.""Sorry... Not with you?""Sooner or later, I want her on my Board."?"On your Board?""She´s got intelligence, looks, a driving personality, and balls of solid rock. What more could I ask? Once she´s trained up and knows what she´s doing, she´ll be a power to be reckoned with." He rubs his hands, almost gleefully. "Let´s see the other shareholders stand in her way when she decides she wants something..." Then he sniffs. "On the whole, I want her working with and for me, not someone else..."Despite myself, I smile at this. "
MICHAELInstantly, James retires, wiping his face, but now, repositioning himself, plunges his cock, full length inside her. There´s no hesitation, no testing her. She´s as open as it is possible for a woman to be, and he hilts himself, hard, into her. Our position is slightly awkward, but he rests his hands for balance on the settee-back, leaning over the two of us, as he fucks her. He´s not gentle, ramming home as she squeals and wails under him. And he is close to climax himself. He watches as he penetrates her, studies his cock moving in and out, glistening with her honey, her thighs flushed and wet, and her red curls soaked. His own breathing is rapid, face and chest sweating and his dark eyes, all but black with hugely dilated pupils.Groaning, he presses home, grinding as he pumps into her. Head dropped to his chest, eyes squeezed shut, he grunts and then, with a gasp, withdraws, waving at me to take over as he seats himself back in his armchair."Charlotte, on the bed,
MICHAELAbout to step into the lounge, just a towel around my waist, I remember that Beth is there with Charlotte, and take a minute to pull jeans instead. I´ve seen the looks she gives me...No need to tempt fate...Still towelling my hair, I step into the lounge, then stop...Something´s wrong...The apartment door is open, swinging wide. Chairs, and the table, are knocked to the floor, and there is a faint, sweetish, chemical scent of... something... in the air.The women are nowhere in sight.Thoroughly alarmed now. "Charlotte? Beth?" Then shouting... "Charlotte? Beth? Where are you?"Jeez!Jabbing at my mobile. "James. Charlotte and Beth are gone! Are they with you?""No. They´re fucking not! I thought you were supposed to be keeping an eye on them?"Pacing up and down the room. "I was in the shower. When I came out, about a minute ago, they were gone, and there´s signs of a struggle. Where´s Richard?""He´s here... raising the alarm as we speak.""Oh, Sh
MICHAELWe sit around the table, James and I, Richard and Will.Will, sighing, says "As you know, since it is clear that something in Charlotte´s family history, relates to Lawrence Klempner and this current situation, I´ve had good reason to be able to investigate old records which might otherwise not be deemed relevant, that I could not otherwise justify assigning resources to. You know about the first part, when, at Michael´s request, I had her birth certificate located, along with her parents´ marriage certificate. And now, with Corby identified, I have more of a free hand. It was difficult before, simply not knowing who could be trusted...""What makes you think he was their only informer?" asks Richard."Because, having identified him, with the benefit of hindsight, all the information we know to have leaked out, including how they knew you were here, can be traced back to some connection with him...""How did he know we here?" demands Richard."He was there in the af
CHARLOTTEStaring down at Beth, Klempner says, "Corby wanted to fuck Jennifer first; show her how annoyed he is with her. But that´s my privilege. He can have you instead. The pair of you look enough alike that he should be happy with that. When he´s finished, the others can take turns with you... Or they might not take turns. That´s up to them."He waits, enjoying her fear. "Ever done that? Had a man at every hole? I know she has." He tosses his head across to me.Beth says nothing, tears rolling down her cheeks, her breathing short and rapid.He turns to me. "I´m having you first. Get some pay-off eh? Before I let the others at you? How many can you handle at once d´you reckon? We´ll find out, shall we?""What payoff? What have ever done to you?"He shows his teeth...Is that a smile?... But he doesn´t reply, just leaves the room, and his goon follows. The door closes behind him, followed by the rattle of keys in the lock and the slam of bolts.The exit is locked.
CHARLOTTEPropelled back inside by my captors to the large central room, a gun is trained on me, and my arms gripped at either side, before they release me, to stand in the centre of the room. Klempner nods at one of his hoods. "Get the other one." Beth is all but dragged into the room. I don´t think she can stand without support, and released, she drops to her hands and knees, sobbing and shaking.It´s up to me then...How much time can I buy?Klempner glances down at Beth and seems to dismiss her. She´s not doing anything interesting; not entertaining him.Trying not to be obvious about it, I glance around the windows, but all I see is darkness.Where are they?Klempner stands close to me; too close, crowding me. I scent him, his breath, his sweat. His smile is cold; his pupils, wide.Oh, he´s enjoying this.And I´m supposed to be intimidated...Fuck that..."So, what´s next?" I demand, keeping my voice loud. "You rape me? Gang-bang me? You think I can´t han
