The Beautiful Guardian: Vengence

Chapter Fourteen: Sweet Capture

Chloe opens her eyes to a dark hotel room with sunlight squeezing between the drawn curtains of the hotel room. She feels behind her with her hand and feels the naked flesh of the bed's other occupant. Satisfied that last night wasn't a dream, she rolls over to face the serene face of Sophia.

Sophia opens her eyes as a smile comes to her face. She runs her hand along Chloe's face as she gives a quick, loving kiss.

"I want another round," she purrs as she moves closer to Chloe's excited body.

A ringing cellphone interrupts the foreplay session causing both women to sigh in frustration. Sophia rolls off the bed and answers her phone as she begins to pace back and forth, giving a happy Chloe a good view of her naked form.

"Hello... Yeah, I'm at the hotel... Does he want a meeting?... Hey, can we talk about the other deal?... Ok, but... (sigh)... Ok, Ok I'll get ready," Sophia says as she grabs some undergarments from a waiting suitcase.

"I have to get dressed up, My boss wants his employees to look their best for meetings, it's kind of a pet peeve of his, So I'm going to use the shower first ok?" Sophia explains as she disappears into the bathroom.

Chloe waits for some time, then Sophia appears out of the bathroom. Sophia is now in high-end underwear, with her hair immaculately groomed. Chloe rises off the bed as Sophia begins to roll a stocking up on her leg. She smiles as she takes her turn for the bathroom.

Chloe takes some time to shower, get dressed, and do her hair in her particular style with the two pigtails. She eventually exits the bathroom into a more lit room since the curtains are fully open now. She blinks to adjust to the light and notices a woman sitting near the window.

The woman was looking down at her phone. She is dressed in black heels, dark stockings, a black close-fitting pencil skirt, a white blouse layered with a black waistcoat, and with the perfect makeup and hair application. She looked like the CEO of a major corporation in the middle of some trade deal.

"Sorry I took so long in the bathroom Sophia, I-"

"My name isn't Sophia," the woman sharply says, not looking up from her phone.

Chloe stands stunned into confusion. The woman who looks like a fashion doll version of Sophia is in front of her but claims to be not Sophia.
The door to the hotel room opens and another woman looking exactly like the first one enters. Her face brightens into a smile as she sees Chloe.

"I see that you met my twin sister Maria," she says.

Chloe looks back and forth between the two of them and points to the one standing, "Sophia, right?"

Sophia nods the affirmative as she gets past Chloe and stands next to Maria giving a mirror-like view to Chloe.

Maria stands up from her chair, shouldering a satchel as she does, "So, this is Chloe, the one who started the cascade of events that would lead to Gregory Rusk's death at the hands of Maxine."

Chloe backs away a little as Sophia stands between the two women.

"The boss wants her, now," Maria says as she points at Chloe.

"Maria no, Isn't there some other way? You surely can't ah!"

Maria shoves Sophia onto the bed as she approaches Chloe.

"Chloe! Get out of here!" Sophia urges.

Chloe turns to leave. She almost gets to the door but a sharp pain on the side of her head as she is being pulled by the pigtail halts her progress. She falls next to Sophia wide-eyed rubbing her head.

Maria takes something out of her satchel and with a flick of her wrist, a collapsible security baton is seen in her hand as she blocks the door.

She points her newly revealed weapon at the two women, "Now you listen to me, I have put too much effort into this plan to be ruined by your touchy, feely, sentiments, Do you want to continue to be that man's plaything? To have his grubby hands on you, on us?"

Chloe looks over to Sophia, who bows her head in sullen silence.

"No," Sophia answers in a whispering tone.

"Then help me get us out, Sophia," Maria urges.

Sophia looks mournfully at Chloe, then down to her feet again. A knock at the door causes Maria to about a look of irritation.

"Who is it?"

"It's us, the boss sent us as you wanted," came a man's voice from the other side.

Maria opens the door and two men dressed as police officers enter the room. They take hold of Chloe as Maria moves to a counter and grabs Chloe's phone and tosses it over to Sophia.

"Unlock it," she commands.

"She can't possibly unlock my phone, I barely used it," protest Chloe.

Sophia sadly enters the unlock pattern on the phone, shocking Chloe. Maria sighs as she takes the phone from the sullen Sophia.

"She observes things, remember?" Maria taunts.

"Sorry," Sophia quietly says.

Maria takes a picture of Chloe as she is held by the two fake cops. She then turns away typing something and then tosses the cell phone back to Sophia.

"Take her to Victor," commands Maria.

Chloe begins to struggle but a sharp feeling in her side gives her pause as one of the goons gets close to her ear.

"The boss said he wants you alive, but he didn't say anything about being in one piece," he hissed.

"Don't you hurt her!" Sophia protests.

"She will be fine, so long she cooperates, or else," Maria says before pointing her baton at her, causing Sophia to retreat more onto the bed.

Chloe lowers her head with a heavy sigh, "I'll be good, just stop upsetting her."

Chloe looks back as she is led away out of the door. She sees Sophia begin to cry, burying her face in her hands as Maria puts away the baton in her satchel.

"I'm so sorry Chloe," Sophia quietly whimpers.
