?As it was in the time of the First Queen of our people Currella, youwill each be given a chance to bind your loyalty to your Queen,? I said.Then glan...ed at Carlotta behind me seeing her grin.This had been one of those events in history that she?d had me study as Ipracticed my talent. After seizing the throne Currella had each councilorsubmit to the bite, giving her part of their blood that she might readany disloyal intentions. Also she would later be able to see into theirintentions whenever. We did this once a week. One day on our walk we got off the path and found a small shallow pool, the water was like bathwater and it was very secluded. We took our clothes off and sat in the water. It was no more than a foot deep but it felt so good. A week later we went back to this pool and this time we had brought some wine. We drank the bottle and got a buzz. That is when we noticed the old fort that we had some how missed the last time we were there. It was covered by brush. No doubt built. And, I knew Anita didn't date much and I wondered what a girl like her would be like to get the interest of the guy she'd ask out to the Sadie Hawkins dance. I wondered if Anita was still a virgin or maybe she'd already been fucked once or even more than that."OK, Anita, I'll be glad to be your date to the dance," I heard myself saying and I closed my eyes, trying to envision our evening together being more enjoyable than I really expected it to be. And, I began to imagine what might happen. " Right," I replied with a touch of annoyance. "Thanks."A squawk of static ended the transmission. I slid back against the wall, finding a seat on the hard floor next to Becky."Well, I guess we're in here for a while," she said quietly."Yeah." Did you see what floor we stopped on?"I paused, trying to remember. "Twenty-one, I think, but I'm not sure. The lights went out too quick for me to see."Listening to myself, I realized that my voice revealed a touch of annoyance and that I was extremely.
