My Dark Desire

Chapter eight.

A loud booming of thunder hit, and Sarah sat up. It was dark and cloudy. What time was it? Sarah looks over at the clock she had, was really two in the morning? She lays back down to reach at William bed side, he was not there. She opens her eyes and sits up " William?" She whispered; she didn't know why she whispered.  she then forgot; she left him into another room.

She then goes over to her side and turns on the oil lamp. There he was sitting in his chair, in front of the fire pit. fully clothes on. His top hat on, along with his leather cape and leather gloves. " Why are you up so early?" Sarah asks. William gets up from the chair, and heads over to her. " I had work to do." William stated with no emotion. " At almost nearly three a clock? In the morning will?" She asks. William nods and soon sits down on the bed in front of her. " Yes. I've decided to cook some dinner for today. And I would love for you to try our special. Meal. Me and you of course. For my rather rude behavior." William said.

Sarah gave a nod " okay, but please, don't sneak into my room like that. you are rather lucky; I didn't hurt you. but it's rather early for that question William" She spoke. William gave a nod, as if he understood. " Well, I'm sorry love. just couldn't sleep. so, I waited for you to wake up. forgive me, for being such a wretch." William said. and with that left closing the door. Sarah soon pushes back her ginger red curls as she lets out a sigh laying back down.

Sarah had gotten up in the morning, she headed down in her white robe. She wanted to ask more about William, she head in the kitchen and saw marry making breakfast. " Mary. May I ask, a question. It's about William." Sarah said and looked around, as if he was there. She always felt like she was being watch, but she didn't know by what. " Go ahead young lady! What the question? "Mary ask. " I've...be noticing William was up around three O'clock in the morning. Wouldn't you find that odd?" Sarah asks.

Mary gave some thought on that. " Maybe he couldn't sleep?" She stated, just trying to brush off her negative thoughts on William. " Yeah, but he was fully clothed. Didn't the police, tell them to stay inside? Due to Jack the Ripper?" Sarah asks. Mary chuckled " only for the Slags. But William is William, and he will do whatever he pleases. Now stop with the silly thoughts, and help with breakfast will ya?" Mary ask. Sarah then gave in and gave her a smile " okay." Sarah said. but in the back of her mind. He was up to something. And she was going to find out. Sarah came out to the kitchen, and sat beside William, he was reading another new report.

She looks at the back and in bold letters, it said " JACK RIPPER ATTACKS AGAIN!" Sarah looks away, and then back at him. " I'm concern for myself, for my friends! and others. I can't even go on a walk." Sarah said. William then lays the newspaper down, and stare at her " he won't attack you." William stated. " How do you know!" Sarah yelled. William slams his hands on the table " Because you're not a WHORE!" He yelled. Sarah then slaps William in the face. " Don't ever raise your voice at me." Sarah said, sounding upset and wanting to cry. " I don't even know you anymore. I'm telling you how I feel! And you ignore me! you stupid man! Think too much with with that dick of yours!" Sarah yelled. William turn a bit red, but it was hard to tell" ENOUGH SARAH!" William yelled. Sarah soon grew quiet. " I will not tolerate you, belittled me. just because some mad man, on the loose. so please, don't act like a foolish women! when you know nothing! if you want to go out go ahead, but don't expect that you will come back alive. and I won't be there to save you" William said as he goes over to her. Sarah backs up into the wall hitting it. " I will not be able to save you from whatever he does to you. just like those women husbands that couldn't save them." William said. now William was towering over Sarah.

Sarah eyes was looking up into his, as if she wanted to yell back and tell him how wrong he was. But Sarah knew how true it was.  " I... I'm sorry sir." Sarah said. William gives a nod, as he backs away. " Now that i have to earn your forgiveness. doll yourself up. I'm going to take you to see a circus show.." William said. Sarah gives off a soft smile, but hides it quickly. " Very well, I shall get ready. I hope it's not disappointing." Sarah said. William gave a chuckle. " I doubt it." William said.
