The Power of Touch Ch. 13
I apologize, AGAIN, for the time it has taken me to get this latest installment out. You have to realize that I have a full-time job that involves shift work and does not always allow me to write. I assure you, however that I do try to write when I can. Your comments mean a lot to me, and I do look forward to reading them. So, with that said, please enjoy my latest installment. As always please vote and comment. Thank you very much for your patience. And thank you for being fans of my writing. I can't begin to tell you what that means to me.
Also, as a side note. I resubmitted Chapter 12 as I realized that the end of the chapter was missing. I encourage you to read the last parts of Chapter 12, and I apologize for my mistake.
Now, onto to Chapter 13.
I woke with a start, not knowing where I was. I heard the click of a lock and the jiggle of a door handle. Then the closing of a door. A dim light came on from outside the room. I looked to my left, and saw Reese laying beside me, her hair mussed by sleep. The sheets were pulled down to just above her waist and I could see her beautiful breasts and slender waist exposed. Slowly, I awoke and propped myself up on my elbow. I grabbed my phone off the nightstand and saw the time was 6:27 in the morning. The fog lifted from my mind. I saw a shadow pass by the doorway and heard the sink run in the bathroom.
Ahh... Dan must have come back from the reception.
I slowly got out of bed and stretched. I walked out of the bedroom and stood in the little passageway between the bedroom and the bathroom. There was a little alcove with glasses and a sink. I filled a cup with water and took a sip.
Dan walked out of the bathroom and jumped at the sight of me. Granted, I was standing naked in the hallway.
"Master." He mumbled.
"Dan." I responded.
"It was nice of the two of you to leave the reception without saying anything to me." He complained.
"Knock it off Dan." I said. "Reese was tired, and she wanted me to take her back to the hotel. That's all." I explained.
"Why? Why you? Why not me, her husband?" He asked.
He was sounding a little agitated. I mean, his wedding night didn't go as he had planned, so I suppose he had a right to be pissed. That and the fact that his newlywed wife was sleeping with another man on their wedding night.
"I get it Dan. I'd be pissed off too. But she chose me to take her back to the hotel. If it's any consolation, we had a shower and went straight to bed. No sex." I explained.
"And now you're standing naked in front of me! Which means Reese is probably naked too!" He said a little loudly.
"Keep it down you idiot." I said a little more tensely. "Do you want to wake Reese?"
"Honestly? At the moment, I don't give a fuck!" He yelled.
Dan moved closer to me with clenched fists. This was not going well. I stepped back.
"Do you think, you can come in here and take my wife without repercussions?" He asked in a shaky voice.
"What's going on?" Reese asked sleepily.
She was standing in the doorway to the bedroom and wrapped herself in a sheet. Fuck she looked beautiful.
"This asshole thinks he can just waltz into my life and take my wife. Ruin everything! That's what's going on!" Dan yelled.
"Jesus Dan! Keep it down!" Reese said quietly.
"No, fuck this I'm out of here!" Dan said as he turned towards the door.
"Danny, wait!" Reese said as she put her hand on his shoulder.
Dan turned around and struck Reese on the cheek with his clenched fist. Reese fell to the ground, her sheet opening and her left breast coming exposed.
Immediately he regretted what he did, and a look of panic crossed his face.
"Reese! I'm sorry, I didn't mean..." Was all he could manage before my fist hit him square in the jaw.
Dan fell against the door and collapsed on the floor. I moved in and hit him hard again.
"Master! Stop!" Reese yelled.
I looked over at her, my fist in the air ready for another blow. She was rubbing her cheek.
"Please... stop. Just stop." She pleaded.
The anger quickly drained from me as I looked down at her. Slowly I lowered my fist. I reached down and held out my hand to help her to her feet. Reese reached up and took my hand. Gingerly, I pulled her up, so she was standing beside me. I adjusted her sheet, covering her breast.
Finish him.
The dark voice said.
Finish him?
I asked.
Take his mind completely. Make him yours!
The voice commanded.
Dan was looking up at us, rubbing his jaw.
I could take him right now, but I had an idea.
Josh, Benjamin, Matt I need you at the hotel. Quickly.
I telepathically summoned the three groomsmen to the room. I received three confirmations telepathically as well.
This may take a while.
"Sit down." I commanded, pointing towards a chair in the sitting room.
Dan picked himself up off the floor, never breaking eye contact with me. Obediently, he made his way to the sitting room and sat down.
"Stay there until I say you can move. Got it?" I asked angrily.
"Yes Master." He said begrudgingly.
I looked over at Reese and caressed her cheek where Dan struck her. Her hand came up and covered mine.
"Are you alright Reese?"
"Yes Master. I'm fine, just a little sore."
"Baby, I'm sorry I didn't mea..." Dan cried out.
"Shut your fucking mouth Dan!" I said loudly.
My hand was still on Reese's cheek.
"Let me take a look at you."
I ran my thumb down across her bottom lip. Reese gave my thumb a kiss. I cupped her chin and turned her face to the left. I looked at her cheek. It was a little red. I gently ran the back of my finger across her cheek. I leaned in and gave her a little kiss.
"You should be ok. I don't think this should bruise too much. We'll keep an eye on it." I said quietly.
"Thank you Master. At least someone cares about me." She said as she shot an angry look at Dan.
