It was a Wednesday evening, and once again I was alone. I suppose I should introduce myself. My name is Sarah. I am 5'10" with shoulder length blonde hair -which I often curl- and blue eyes. I guess to be factual, while my eyes are blue they tend to change color slightly depending on my mood. I guess you could say that I have mood eyes.
I wouldn't say I'm a "super model" by any means, but I have found that guys get turned on just from hearing me speak, so I usually get my way solely by the seductive nature of my voice alone. I guess it doesn't hurt that I'm also sensual, craving romance and passion, which often can be seen in the sheer intensity of my eyes. Unlike many women, there's never a moment that I don't want that intimacy. Lately my husband's hobbies have taken over where the physical intimacy has become less frequent, as a result it's left me lonely, aching, and desiring so much more!
Tonight was unlike any other night. I was attending a weekly Bible study, and trying to focus. Amidst hearing the steady downpour of rain outside, I sensed I was being watched. I turned around slightly and saw a man I hadn't seen before staring intently at me -almost mentally undressing me with his eyes. I quickly turned around with the thought that I had to leave with the crowd.
The study concluded and in my great hurry to leave, I nearly forgot my cell phone. I walked back to my chair grabbed my cell phone realising by now the building was practically empty. I also remembered I needed my umbrella and headed to the small alcove to find it; that's when I saw him! Not wanting to be seen, I instinctively placed my back to the wall, hoping and praying that he didn't see me. I closed my eyes and held my breath.
When I dared to open my eyes, he was standing right in front of me. As I looked at him, I saw a broken heart and pure smoldering passion in his eyes. He leaned his head down and ever so gently kissed me on my lips, and while I should have turned down his advance, I didn't.
There was no struggle on my part to fight back, there was simply pure desire to love and be loved in return, yet I knew that this was not right! Placing my hands at his chest. I gently pushed him back, telling him that I was sorry I couldn't possibly be unfaithful to my husband, and then I turned to leave. For a fleeting moment I thought I saw the passion turn to a wickedness I've never known. Thinking I was wrong, I continued to walk outside.
I realised when I stepped outside that the rain had slowed to a steady drizzle. As I started the car and looked down at the instrument panel I noticed that I was low on gas. I prayed that I could at least get to the gas station. I finally got to the gas station, and noticed the same guy from the study was slowly driving by, in the direction I was soon to take.
I finished filling up the car with gas, paid and hurried towards home. The rain by now had ended and I decided to roll the windows down to allow the cool nights air to waft through the car.
I soon came to the outskirts of the city and while stopped at the traffic light, noticed that the lights on the dashboard began flickering and suddenly the engine cut out. "Oh great, either my alternator or battery is out!" I thought.
That's when I saw the mysterious stranger again!
I was scared, but not immediately so, as I had the car doors locked. Suddenly I heard my cell phone chirping, a reminder it would soon go dead.
I looked up to see this man had ever so quietly approach my window, at this point I began to wish that I hadn't rolled the windows down. I was that frightened!
The man lowered his face to where he caught my attention and said: "Trust me, get out of your car."
I certainly didn't want to step out of the car, as I figured that I would be safer in my car. While debating my decision, I glanced up to see a gun in his hand and he urgently and more forcefully said: "Step out of the car!"
At this point I really didn't see any other option and grudgingly and hesitantly got out of the car.
He placed the muzzle against my back and lead me to a vacant, abandoned building on the side of the road. He quickly took my purse, and smashed my cell phone. "Why did you do that?" I wailed, suddenly realising that I was now without any hope of help.
As the man continued forcing me to walk ahead of him, my car exploded. "That is why you should trust me - know that I can harm you and anyone you love."
I was unsure of what was happening, and least of all why any of this was happening to me. I had been lead by a man that I didn't know into a vacant, abandoned building, I had no cell phone, I was on the outskirts of the city, and I had no way to let anyone know where I was. Upon entering the building I saw a bed in the corner of the room and a sense of dread filled my heart.
At this point I had not said anything, and that's when he spoke to me. "Sarah, you don't know me, but for the longest time I've watched you, I've seen the hurt in your eyes, I've seen the longing in your heart to be loved." Naturally I denied what the man said and told him he was mistaken that I was quite content with my marriage. He merely laughed.
Feeling my face flush with warmth, I thought of slapping him, but remembered the gun. Wanting to hide the obvious effect his statement had caused, I turned my back to him, afraid that I couldn't hide what my eyes surely were revealing! There was longing and desire in my eyes.
