His shirt slipped from his fingers as
the silken material seemed to glide to the floor. Judith watched as
he removed his belt slowly and it, too, joined the shirt. By the
time he had his pants off and he stood only in his silk boxers, she
was panting to see all of him. As he backed up and helped her to
stand beside him, he started unbuttoning the blouse she’d had on
earlier today. He was taking his time with it, and she found that
it was the sexiest thing that anyone had ever done to
her.


I guess being here takes
away the horror of when I was taken.” He nodded and kissed her
neck. The blouse added to the pile on the floor as she kicked off
her shoes and pulled off her pants, leaving her panties on with her
bra. “I have never undressed like this before. I have been naked
during sex, but I never…I never undressed before.”


You will please me
greatly if you do not speak of other bed partners.” He kissed her
neck again. “I will stop now, but it is hard for me not to want to
taste you thusly.”


You want to eat me
again?” He nodded, and she slid her hand down his chest to his
cock. “You can if you want, but I want to take you into my mouth at
the same time. Would you like that?”


How is this possible?”
She could see the need on his face, and he lay on the bed as she
instructed. “Come to me, Judith. I wish to be inside of you
now.”


Not yet. I have plans for
your body, and I find that I don’t want to hurry through it just
now.” When she went to the other side of the bed, he started to
turn. “No, stay this way. I’m going to show you
something.”

As soon as she crawled down his body,
he starting kissing her, touching her. By the time she got to his
silk-covered cock she was almost too needy to do more than swallow
him down and have him take her. Rubbing her cheek over his cock,
she felt him rock his hips upward and she nipped at his
shaft.

Before she could tell him what she
wanted him to do, he pulled her down over his mouth and ate at her
through her panties. Judith cried out and rolled her hips downward
for him to take her again and again. She couldn’t believe how good
he was at this and felt her body expand and heat just for him.
Judith looked down at his cock again and wanted to taste him. She
wanted him to slide down her throat, too, as he came in her mouth.
She pulled his briefs down and licked the crown of his
cock.

His cock was so thick and hard that
she had to fight with his boxers to free him. By the time she had
him freed, she was so close to coming all over his mouth that she
had to take several deep breaths to slow things down. As soon as
she wrapped her mouth around his crown again, Agon nipped at her
clit and she screamed out her release. He continued to eat her,
lapping at her over-sensitive flesh until she was peaking
again.

His cock was streaming precum like he
had already come. She licked him over and over to take him into her
body before swallowing him down. He surged up so hard that she
gagged slightly, but he was fucking her mouth, and she wanted to
feel him come this way. Concentrating on him and not what he was
doing to her pussy, she cupped his balls in her hand and rolled
them. He let her pussy go with a roar as he filled her mouth and
throat with his cum.

Judith wanted to make him come again,
but he rolled her to her back and stood up. She nearly got up as
well when he fisted his cock using her saliva and his cum to make
himself hard again. Licking her lips, she could taste him there and
slid her hand down to her pussy to let him see how ready she was
for his cock.


You would come this way,
would you not?” She nodded and moaned when her finger brushed over
her nubbin. “Tasting you has only whetted my appetite for more of
you. My cock, I would very much like to bury myself into
you.”

Spreading her legs, she entered her
pussy with two of her fingers. She watched as he moved up and down
his cock over and over. Sitting up, she rolled to her knees and
told him to come to her.


Fuck me this way.” He
moved up behind her and she felt his cock at her entrance. “Fuck
me, Agon. Use your strength to take me to the bed and fuck
me.”

He didn’t need any more instructions
and slammed his cock deep inside of her. As he powered into her,
she slid her fingers over her clit again until he joined her with
his fingers as well. She was wet enough that he could slide his
fingers into her sheath as he took her. When he bit into her
shoulder, something that she’d never enjoyed before, Judith
screamed out his name and came so hard that darkness took her. Her
last thoughts were that he’d killed her, and she smiled.

When she opened her eyes, he was
holding her. She heard his soft breathing and knew that he slept as
well. Getting up as quietly as she could, she dressed in a pair of
his boxers she’d pulled from his dresser and found one of his silk
shirts in his closet. As she moved out of his room and down the
hall, she couldn’t help but smile.

Finding the office she wanted wasn’t
as hard as she thought it would be. After knocking once she was
told to enter, and she looked at the man sitting behind the desk.
Without being asked, she sat down in the chair and looked at
Him.


You will need to return
soon.” She nodded but didn’t move. Boss leaned back from His
keyboard and regarded her. “Have you come to tell me you have
decided to marry our Agon?”


I have a few questions
first.” She looked around the room, then back at Him. “You planned
this entire thing, didn’t You?”


I planned two things, but
am glad you have chosen this one.” Judith nodded, and He continued.
“You have queries, as do I. May we trade them, you one, then Me
one?”


Okay. But I’ll tell you
what I tell anyone who wants to ask me questions. I’m not going to
sugarcoat the answers. Especially when I’m pretty sure You already
know the answers.”


I do.” He smiled as He
continued. “But I would still like to hear what you have to say.
Especially since we both know you have free will. My first question
is this; your uncle, you had the means to have him put to death,
yet you did not. Why?”


I’m not going to…why
didn’t You?” He shrugged. “I didn’t have him put to death because
it was always my hope that he would come to love me. As you can
see, that failed big time.”


Failed? I suppose in a
way that it did. But not for you. How would you have felt if you
had done it back then?” She thought about it but didn’t say
anything. What would be the point? “Judith, you must answer the
questions.”


I would have always
wondered.” She got up to pace and wandered over to a window that
looked out over a lovely field of tulips. “My father wasn’t a good
man. My uncle…well, you know what he is, too. But what of my
mother? No one has ever told me a thing about her. I asked, but
after a while gave up on that, too.”


She was a wonderfully
amazing woman. You’re a great deal like her, as a matter of fact.
Just before she slipped into her death, she called to Me to save
you. Not herself, mind you, but you. I came to see you
immediately.” She turned to look at Him. “Yes, you were still in
her womb, as you know, but you were still her child and I would do
most anything for her.”


I heard once, a very long
time ago, that she was always doing things for others. It was at
the trial of my uncle. There was word that….” She looked at Boss.
“Did he kill her? Either of them, did they kill her?”

She didn’t think He was going to
answer her. When He asked her to sit, she started to tell Him never
mind, she really didn’t want to know, but she did move toward the
chair. When she was seated, He waved His hands at the wall and a
picture appeared. It was her mother. She had no idea why she knew
that, but there she was.


This was right before the
accident. She and your father were getting into the car, but he
told her he had other arrangements and left her.” The picture
started to move like a movie, and she watched as her mother got
into the car alone and rubbed her belly. She leaned down and
started telling her baby how much she loved her. “Your mother
wanted you a great deal. Loved you more than anything in this
world. It was why I went to you.”

As the movie moved forward, she
watched as her mother drove cautiously and with care, stopping at
the two stop signs and looking both ways before moving forward. The
sudden shift in the car had the view turning to look behind them at
the next stop sign as a large SUV rammed her a second then a third
time. The fourth time it hit them, everything went blurry for
several seconds. The next part of the movie was of her mother in a
hospital bed with her head bandaged up and wires running from every
part of her.


He shoved her into
traffic.” Boss nodded. “Why? What did she do to him that he’d have
to kill her for?”


Your father thought that
you were your uncle’s child.” Judith stared at Boss as He
continued. “It wasn’t true, of course. She’d never do such a thing,
but he thought it. The only reason you were saved is because the
protector that was with your father was able to convince him that
killing you would serve no purpose, and if you lived it would
guarantee more sympathy for him when you were born. Your father was
nothing if not vain.”


Who?” She wanted to know
the protector’s name and was sure He wasn’t going to give it to
her, so she asked Him again. “Who do I owe my life to? I need to…I
know him, don’t I? I know the man who saved my life.”


You do. He is Galin.” He
handed her a picture of the man who had saved her, and she
committed it to memory. This man would have whatever he wanted from
her forever. “He will not appreciate you knowing. I believe he
is…well, he is sad for you. Not that you have lived, but because
you have suffered so much for what he did.”


He saved me.” Boss
shrugged. “He gave me what no one has given me since. A chance. I
owe him my life.”


He will only see that he
put you in harm’s way.” She looked at the movie where her mother
was still in the hospital. She was so beautiful even in all her
pain.

Looking at Boss, she asked Him what
had been on her mind since she woke. “Will I be an immortal like
Agon? Will I be able to go up against Jerry and defeat him if I’m
not?” He nodded and smiled at her. “This body that I’m in now, it’s
not…it’s not real, is it?”


Nay, it is not. You are
whole here, as you know, but you are not the woman who hangs onto
life so tightly in the hospital. The life that you have here is
only possible because when you lay injured, Agon gave you a piece
of him, a breath from his body into yours. Now you will heal much
faster. You’ll wake in a few hours, back in your body with these
memories and a body that will live for as long as you wish.
Forever, if that is your desire.” He stood up, and she did as well.
“Agon is searching for you. He has it in his head that I have
spirited you away and sent you home again.”

As she made her way to the door with
Him behind her, she turned and looked at Him. There was something
there, a spark of something she had long forgotten. And when she
remembered it fully, she smiled at Him. He smiled back.


You told me once that I
would need you, and that only then would I come to you willingly.”
He nodded, and His smile broadened. “I need you.”

With that she turned and walked from
the room and down the hall. She met Agon just as he was coming out
of a room. He picked her up and hugged her tightly to him, and she
felt all was right with the world. Kissing him gently on the mouth,
she looked up at him.


I’m in love with you. And
if you still want to, I’ll marry you.” The sound of his happiness
bounced from wall to wall until several others came out of their
rooms and stared at them. He told each and every one of them that
he had a wife and that she loved him. Judith knew that for as long
as she lived, she’d never be as happy as she was right
then.

Chapter 8

 

Jerry wanted to get out of
his room but was terrified that someone would recognize him. His
picture had been plastered all over the media since he’d fled the
house two days ago. And now it seemed that someone—and he knew just
who the
someone
was—had told all they knew about the bodies on his land. As
soon as he found her, Judith was going to be dead.

 


The excavation of the
property began late last night when authorities were given a tip on
the smell coming from the house.”

 

That was another thing that he was
pissed about. How the hell did anyone smell anything coming from
his house? He was four miles from the road and his closest neighbor
was more than ten football fields away. But the news reporter went
on about the bodies in the basement and her opinion on why they
were where they were.

 


The kiln—a furnace or
oven, you may know, used for baking pottery, grain, or bricks—was
stuffed with the body of one Janice Holloway, known to her friends
as Jane. The police aren’t saying much right now, but it looks as
if she might be involved in foul play. The man with her, his
identity unknown at this time, was also in the basement, but near
the kiln and not actually inside of it. It is thought that he might
have been next in the ghastly firing. We are still waiting on
details as to what the police think might have
transpired.”
