Chapter 10: Mission Accomplished??
We now have plenty of time. The tension seems to have left the warehouse.
I am relieved. Harris sits back, gratified for a job well done. Elizabeth just seems defeated. And Chano?
"He went to get something to eat, Boss."
"What, again?!"
"He says he gets hungry when he's nervous." Harris smiled, enigmatically. "He says, you made him nervous."
I chuckle, and approach Elizabeth. She perks up, and tries to twist away. I grab a handful of her hair, almost roughly, and pull her tear-streaked face close to mine.
"I bet your arms hurt, don't they?" I produce the box-cutter from my jacket, and she flinches. I just pull her closer to me. "Steady, settle down."
With a flick, I cut her wrist ropes from the catwalk above.
She collapses, sobbing, in my arms.
I think to myself, all this could have been avoided. It was actually quite a little adventure, and it could have been ... fun. There were parts of her captivity that I know she enjoyed. I could tell.
I hold her in my arms, her hands still bound tight in front, her ankles still tied; my rope gag still in her mouth. I rub her sides, gently, this time. I finally get her to stop crying, and to stop shaking. "It will be only a little while, now, Elizabeth. Soon, it will all be over."
We have the codes, but we won't move until quarter to six. That's over an hour from now. Suddenly, Chano getting some food sounds pretty good right now. It'll be a celebration, a going-away dinner. We'll eat, get rich, and we'll all go our separate ways, ... but then, there was Elizabeth.
How do we let her go? Do we let her go, at all?
I breathe deeply. This could have been fun. The whole afternoon could have been fun.
And, as I hold her in my arms, stroking her head, rubbing her sides, I feel myself growing ... larger, as she trembles in my embrace.
It could have been fun. It still can be. I've got an hour to kill.
I reach down and cut her hands loose. She looks at me, confused, ... until I draw her arms behind her again, and begin tying the loose ends of the rope together.
Her nipples become hard, again.
Just like my cock is becoming. Hard. Erect.
I rub my hand greedily along her ass, and along her thighs. I force my fingers between them, and massage her there, just below her panties.
"We've got an hour to kill, Elizabeth," I whisper.
I crouch, and catch her at the waist. I straighten up, and once more I hoist the pretty, petite, bound-and-gagged-assistant-bank-manager-with-the-tear-drop-ass high into the air, over my shoulder.
"Harris, ... I've got some 'business' to tend to. I'll be back well before an hour is up."
Harris glanced up from behind his computers, and checked his watch. He nodded, and sat back down.
I began hauling Elizabeth toward the manager's office. That's where we left the mattress, earlier, ...

I am hanging like a piece of meat dripping water from the bucket that they used to bring me back to consciousness.
