A Leap of Faith (Part 3)

Chapter 411 - Morgan's Birthday Present Ideas

Reign and Carly have now return to the hotel, and about 45 minutes after they left Steve's home, in the distance they did here an explosion, which they know could have only been caused by one thing. However, despite this, Carly and Reign did not say anything to each other the entire walk back to their hotel room. Now though, the duo are alone, as it looks like none of the other girls have returned from their nights out. So, this means that Carly and Reign can finally talk about what happened, and not worry about someone overhearing them. As soon as they enter the hotel suite, Carly walks over to the couch in the living room area, and takes a seat, sitting down and looking off into the distance with a mile long stare, looking at absolutely everything, and nothing, at the exact same time. Upon seeing this, Reign slowly walks over to Carly, looking at her for a few moments, before taking a seat next to her.

"Do you want to talk about what happened?" Reign asks, in a soft voice.

Carly now slowly turns and looks at Reign, looking her right in the eyes.

"What is there to talk about? I killed Steve." Carly says, "It shouldn't mean anything."

"It wouldn't mean anything to a lot of people, because he was a rapist, and a scumbag, and deserved death. However, I know it meant something to you, as you are very much an innocent." Reign says.

"Am I?" Carly says, "You heard what Steve said about me. Does that type of person sound like an innocent?"

"What he said was bullshit." Reign replies.

"No. It wasn't. Not all of it." Carly replies, "There were times, when we were together, when I was begging for it, when I was completely driven by my sexual desires. When I willingly became a complete slut for him and did things with him.... and for him..... that I am not proud of."

"What you are talking about, sounds like what most women say when they have been in an abusive relationship, blaming themselves." Reign says.

"Maybe." Carly nods, "But, you know what I feel now?"

Reign shakes her head.

"At first..... I was horrified. Horrified at what I had done. At the fact I murdered Steve, and all the blood that came spurting out of him after the knife slashed across his neck." Carly says, "Now though..... I...... what I did.... taking someone's life...... it made me feel powerful. So powerful. That's a power I have never felt before. Steve gave me my power back, by me killing him."

"Well..... I am glad you feel that way." Reign says.

"I do." Carly nods, "And it's all because of you, Reign."

Carly now moves closer to Reign, and places a hand on one of her legs.

"What are you doing?" Reign now asks, in a confused voice.

"I am showing you how much I admire you, Reign. How you have made me feel, with everything you have done for me." Carly says.

"Carly I...." Reign begins.

"Shh." Carly says, "You don't need to say anything else. You don't need to hide anything from me anymore. I know who you are. I've had my suspicions, but tonight, it really confirmed it. You are Reign. You are the woman who fault Supergirl."

Reign's eyes now widen, with her being more surprised that Carly does not look scared after saying this.

"And...... you are not scared of that?" Reign asks.

"Why would I be? You told me you would protect me. And I believe you." Carly says.

Reign's eyes widen again, but after a few more moments, she soon moves a lot closer to Carly, and takes her in for a deep, passionate, kiss, with Carly responding in kind.
