‘And as for how it happened…’ He wiggled his eyebrows at her. Lucy sighed, ‘Janey, I hate to pull you out of the little one-woman Blanche Deve...eaux revival thing you’ve got going, but you’ve been 25 for three months,’ she said. ‘It’s really not that big of a deal. And why is 25 suddenly a magically mature age, anyway?’ ‘Amen,’ Carrie said, clicking her phone closed as she walked back into the kitchen. ‘You were out to have a good time, and it certainly seems like you did. Besides,’ she smiled. “I will leave those issues to Zar. I honestly don’t know what I have here. The Lincoln and the big Ford truck are out of town, Vicky in in the shop, and Zar had to move while Brisk moved to ... well, never mind. I will have to sort it out over the next couple of days. Make all your needs known to Zar and do not expect her to be happy with things mentioned at the last minute - she is not above suggesting the city bus. She has a job to do for me and you are extra baggage for her. As to your next. Even so, that wasn’t what was foremost in her mind. What was foremost in her mind was that she had to stop this right here and now. If they managed to actually rape her, well ... that would be it for them. It was a death sentence to rape a Priestess of Lea -- not that these idiots knew that. And they’d never believe her if she tried to tell them.She also realized that struggling would make things more difficult. The time to break free had been when they’d first grabbed her but she’d been off in. If you think that telling me you are going to fuck the shit out of me is punishment then please tell me what else I can do to piss you off. Now shut the fuck up, I need to take a nap.” I heard him laugh some more and mutter something about me being a hot little bitch.I looked down at my husband and he was smiling. I whispered, “I don’t know why you are smiling. What I said about dreaming of his cock when I am lying next to you is true. Now just lay there and I’ll tell you my plan to pay off.
