Dance of Love

Chapter 8

Ivy's POV:

She brings Sophia to me, with a sock in her mouth so no one would hear her cry for help. She drops her in front of me; Sophia squirms and tries to hit against the young woman's chest. When she sees me, her eyes widen and then she charges towards me, and pushes me a few paces back.

"You bitch." I say as I slap her across the face. She falls in a heap to the ground, and puts a hand over her red cheek as she looks up at me. "If you keep resisting, I'm going to hurt you." Then I look up towards the apartment that Janet's family is staying in and point "And them too."

She violently shakes her head no. "Good," Then I lift her from her arm, and look towards the woman and tell her to go back to sleep inside. She walks away.

Then, I take Sophia to my home in New Delhi, India. It's a farm house made of brick that spreads across 2.5 acres of land. It has six high toned bedrooms and a capacious yard with a pool and a small cellar to the far corner (I put Sophia in there). I strip her of her clothes and put her in a plain white dress. Then I take out the sock in her mouth.

"Why are you doing this?" She yells.

"Because I can." I say. She then spits in my face. I wipe it away, "You're going to regret that." Then Loraine walks down the steps into the cellar, and I smile wide. "Oh I've been waiting for you. We have out little spitfire here. Do you wish to begin now?"

"Begin what?" She stammers out.

"Our experiment." Loraine says getting closer to her and taking her hand in his. She retracts it, so he reaches out and grabs her hand a little firmer.

"First step in this experiment. Make the agent, obedient." He then tells her to sit on the chair beside her. When she doesn't he punches her, and she falls to the ground, her eye beginning to swell. She slowly gets her body up and stands in front of him.

"I hope you go to hell, you asshole." Then he looks at her and punches her again. "I'll take you with me, sweetheart."

She falls again, her head against the ground, she stays still for a few moments her breaths coming in deeper, until she lifts her upper body. Loraine pulls out his gun and points it towards her temple. "Why don't you just sit on the chair? Do as I say? Do you want to die?"

"Pull the trigger, you pussy." She blurts out. He laughs, and cocks the gun.

"As you wish" he says, before putting a bullet through her left foot. Her cries almost pop my eardrum. She wails as she holds her bleeding foot. She was going to be a hard one to break, I see it already. But, we'll get there.

Then we both leave the room and send down a maid to go clean Sophia's wounds and stop the bleeding. I go to my bedroom, and lay down while Loraine sits on the chair positioned in front of the bed.

"And the other two seers?" He asks me. "Why didn't you bring them?"

"Daniel was not with them so I decided to leave the other seer behind. They will come to find her at some point. We'll catch them then."

"Good idea." He then picks up a bowl of fruit that's on a silver platter and puts a grape in his mouth.

"What if this experiment doesn't work out?" He asks.

"It will. Have faith" I tell him. "We just need to keep pushing her, to her limits. And when she finally breaks, her powers will hopefully come in." I reach across the bed and into my drawer for a metallic triangular gadget. "Then you will stick her with this and the venom will trickle up to her brain and she will become mine. Follow me, and my orders. And with every seer gone, we'll quicken the destruction of this ghastly planet."
