As she nods her head, she speaks up quietly under her mask, “What was the point of that?”
Shaking my head, “It’s a slow burn, you’ll see. Plus, who doesn’t want to use their flamethrower and cause an explosion or two?”
My answer seems logical to me. Little bat doesn’t question it further.
I walk in first, and she follows. As we go down the long, torch-lit hallway, no one is around. Keeping my guard up, my eyes and ears are on high alert. But no one comes out.
Normally, they have at least one or two wandering the halls, just in case someone from town tries to pry where they shouldn’t.
“Do you think someone who saw us warned them?” Rain whispers, grabbing the back of my shirt. Shaking my head, “No. They knew it was me standing there. They know what I am capable of. Perhaps your father has changed it up, trying to throw me off because of the other night? Testing me, to see if I am still trustworthy. Who knows?”
Anything is fucking possible with this fucker.
She keeps a hold of me tightly as we continue our descent to the main area where La Notte del Diavolo is held.
We approach the entrance, and I stop just before it. I can hear the echoing of voices from inside.
“Little bat, stay here. Let me play their game before we reveal ours.”
She doesn’t need to respond. I know she understands.
Letting go of me, she moves to have her back facing the wall next to the archway. She looks at me, giving me a nod of reassurance.
With that, I make my grand entrance, standing into the opening, my body leans against the wall, my legs cross and I prop my bat up next to me. My stepfather is standing at the front, reciting some speech. Clearing my throat, I make my presence known.
“Isn’t it rude to start without your guest of honor?”
Chapter 28
Master
“The Dark One has summoned us once again this month. He has gifted The Chapel with not one but two La Notte del Diavolo! Rain, our Principessa Oscura, is being returned to where she rightfully belongs. To The Dark One, to The Chapel, to me, your Master.”
Standing before my followers, all lined up in rows wearing their Chapel robes and masks. The sight brings pride to my heart.
I do notice a few are missing. A few cowards that The Dark One will punish when the time is right.
The light from the fire torches flicker, casting shadows as the flame dances. Faintly, you can hear the crashing of the ocean waves outside. Taking a deep breath in, I continue, “Elijah may be blinded by her used pussy. We have allowed him to get his fix. Therefore, I can reassure you all that he would never go against us. The Dark One gave us her name. He will bring her in. It's his duty!”
Looking around the room, he still isn’t here. My heart races with anger, and I can feel my blood pressure rising.
Stepping back, my number three and wife are standing behind me. My number two would be with us if it weren’t for that little shit. He thinks he can fuck with me. He has no idea how far I am willing to go.
Walking towards the always lit fire, I hold my hands out against it. The heat warms my skin as I close my eyes and begin to hum. My followers join in on the hum, it is how we channel The Dark One. I concentrate on bringing his words to me, so I can interpret them and present them to the people.
Energy rises inside of me. He is here. My humming gets louder as his presence intensifies. Hands shake before me as I throw my head back. Remaining focused, I concentrate on what he is trying to say. Whispers and low hush sounds invade my head.
Then I see it. Flashing before my closed eyes.
Raising my head, I lower my hands and face the crowd.
“She will be saved tonight. The Dark One is rewarding us. Rain is mine.”
Low murmurs can be heard amongst everyone as I make The Dark Ones orders heard. Before I can continue, I am interrupted by a familiar voice, “Isn’t it rude to start without your guest of honor?”
She is here. Close by. It’s time. She is mine.
