PART IX
"Emerald."
"Emerald, time to wake up."
Brandi moaned. "Let me sleep, I'm tired."
SLAP!
Brandi jerked hard at the slap across her face and blinked several times. She turned her head slowly and looked up to see Kory smiling a very evil smile.
"You have slept enough."
Brandi looked around and saw the man that she remembered coming in right as she finished changing sitting back by the door. He was a thug. Brandi could tell from a mile away never mind her special skills and senses. He wore a suit that didn't quite fit, obvious bulge from a gun, dumb look in his eyes, and lots of muscles.
She was in a room that looked like a dressing room, it had a divan, several chairs, including the one she was tied to, a large mirror and vanity, a wardrobe, and a sink. Aside from herself, Kory and the thug they were alone. Kory was dressed in a dark black robe with black slippers. She was naked and a glance in the mirror showed she was in Lucinda's (or Emerald's) form.
Kory sat down at the vanity and began to brush her long golden hair. "So, we follow someone who looks like Mary McLean sneaking out of her house late at night and takes great pains not to be followed. Except it's not Mary McLean, who is in her own bed naked with her husband and they are both passed completely out from what looks like a massive fuck. And so when my boy Frederick here busts into the room, he finds Emerald bonking a hot Asian escort. Except you are not Emerald, you are Lucinda, an escort from Brazil, with several adds on reputable escort sites. Except that Lucinda is currently in NYC with a client for a weekend according to what my hacker tells me. And her phone's GPS."
"The McLean's have been fucked stupid to the point that my boys couldn't get anything out of them except some sighs and smiles. And when they finally did wake up enough to talk they couldn't remember anything other than some extremely wild sex. Although Mary was very confused about her afternoon. And after some questions at the Club it turns out that her friend Diane had come over that afternoon and had then "had too much wine" and spent all afternoon and some of the evening passed out in the bed. And the woman, Dawn from Philly, somehow left the club without being seen." Kory said as she turned back towards Brandi and gave her a very appraising look.
"I figured you had some talent and were hungry. Apparently, you have a lot more talent than I realized. I should have been more suspicious when you didn't dig around more. I'm the hottest stripper in Chicago, anytime another hottie shows up it's always a cat fight until I put them in their place. But with you? No cat fight, you seemed indifferent. That should have tipped me off, it won't happen again."
Brandi met her gaze and didn't say a word.
Kory smiled an evil smile. "No comment huh? I wouldn't either in your shoes." Kory stood up and adjusted her robe. She teased her hair a bit, and then looked at Kory. "I don't like wasting time so I will get right to it. You are in a world of trouble girl. You are in a place that no one knows about, you have no tracking device on you, on one followed us here, and there is no help coming. If I want you too, you will simply disappear."
Brandi kept her face straight. She could tell Kory was watching her closely for any hint of weakness and Brandi felt that she was a bit surprised and impressed that Brandi was keeping calm.
"But here is the thing. I may let you go. If you fill me in on who you work for and what they are after."
Brandi had figured this was coming. "So how do I answer this?" Brandi thought. "Let's try changing the subject and buy some time."
"How did you know I left the house? I didn't see any tails, and I am very good at catching tails."
Kory grinned. "Trying to change the subject? Nice try."
"SLAP!"
Brandi shook her head as Kory giggled. "That's the last slap you get. THIS is the next time." Kory held up a riding crop and whipped it through the air.
Brandi kept her face straight. She thought about her skills as a domme that she had pulled from the Dominatrix back in college and repressed a shudder. She could last for a while, but it was obvious Kory was going to just rachet things up.
"She is used to breaking people. I need to get her off track somehow. Hmmmm, maybe some honesty works where lying won't." Brandi thought.
Kory leaned down and cupped her chin with her hand. "I do love it when people resist. I have so much fun breaking them."
"I was hired by Jones Electronics to find out why he was being targeted."
Kory blinked. Her face was mostly a good poker face, but Brandi could see that she was a bit surprised.
"I was to determine who it was, and then why. And then let him know and that was that."
Kory straightened up. She traced the crop over her tits and frowned. "That seems a bit too easy."
"I'm not lying, but yeah, it's not like you can tell if I am or not, so I'm likely going to get tortured either way."
"You seem rather, resigned, to this."
