I could almost feel my ears burning, shit I thought someone was talking hard about me. I started to look around as it seemed to get worse. Then it stopped just as suddenly as I narrowed my eyes in suspicion.
I turned to look at Catherine, "You know where Galin's people are? I think that we need to continue freeing the victims of Elvantor Hajib. Ah hell, I'd rather call him dickhead though no one would know who I spoke of.
Catherine started to snicker a moment later, then laugh, the first true one I had heard from her.
"I do believe, master, that no truer statement has ever been spoken," Catherine said, then snapped her fingers. Less than a minute later we appeared in an underground area. I'd guess a huge cave.
Not far away from us were what had to be thousands of four-foot-tall statues. All of them resembled Galin in some way. A movement beyond all of these drew my attention as a broad ax flew toward me.
It stopped within a few inches of my chest. "Suggest if ya care ta live, ya surrender immediately. "Dis our 'ome an' ya not welcome," came a voice much like Galin's.
"We're here at the request of Galin," I said.
The head dwarf stepped out with a wicked ax on his shoulder. "Aye, where be the loafer?"
"On the run, Elvantor Hajib was after him. Elvantor dickhead has a new problem," I said.
"Hmmm, what dat be?" the Dwarf asked.
"Me," I said, drawing a smile from him.
"Ummm," the head dwarf said as he looked me up and down. He then nodded his head as his eyes went wide. "Aye, we know ya. Ya 'ad a different master then though. Ok ya be ok,"
I let out the breath I had been holding. "That's good we need more allies to fight Elvantor dickhead, what," I said as the head dwarf shook his head.
"Lad we canna no be allies. We no 'ave da power to fight 'im. We can 'elp though no more. I 'ave to keep da rest 'o us alive," the dwarf said.
I sighed, "Well shit, I guess anything you can do to help is better than nothing I guess."
The dwarf looked at Catherine, "Oh ho, 'e's met da rotten one then? Ya is better than most ya are. 'Tis only a charm we give. Make ya far more resist magic. Good luck," the dwarf said the vanished.
Shit I thought, that was a good trick. I just shook my head as I walked back toward Catherine. It was at that moment that I noticed a statue glowing. I mean there were thousands there why this one? The female, one beside it, also started to glow.
I looked at Catherine, "What the hell is going on?" I asked.
Catherine looked at me with a bewildered look. That's when she saw the statues glowing behind her. Then her mouth dropped open as she stepped closer, reaching a hand to the male statue.
I yelled as she flew back, almost as if she'd been smacked. She flew right into me, both of us landing with an umph. Holy shit I thought Catherine was so damn soft, her breasts alone were the softest that I had ever felt.
It was that moment I realized that I was gently groping her. Catherine was moaning in delight. I quickly snatched my hands off her, apologizing.
"Master, it is fine, I did not mind you doing that," she said, then extremely softer continued. "You can do that whenever you wish master." This sounded like a purr as she turned and stared at me with a sexy look.
Catherine then got off my lap as I groaned as her soft bottom uncovered what had been hidden. I groaned again as I had a huge tent in my pants. Shit I thought this was killing me!
Catherine sighed almost in frustration, then almost snapped her fingers. Though she stopped when my eyes grew large. The two statues of the male and female were starting to move!
A minute later, they both broke free, stretching and looking around. Then they spied me and Catherine. The male's eyes narrowed as he stared, then a look of recognition appeared in his eyes.
"Who ya be?" He said, looking directly at me. "Ye I knows as the Jinn that was 'ere before. "'Tis sad 'e passed."
"Leader Tonk," Catherine said, "this is my new master, John Richards. It appears that he can break the curse on you and the rest, though I do not know how."
"'Tis ya dat released us? Then, I thanks ye," he moved closer and whispered, "can ya do more?"
I just stared at him as I shrugged and moved closer to the huge group. The first twenty, ten males and females started to glow, then they were no longer stone.
I heard a great shout behind me as the few I had met before appeared. In all, there were twenty-five females and males.
I moved closer to another group as another five and five were almost suddenly alive. I smiled as there was a great jubilation, then my knees got weak as I sank to the floor. Catherine screamed as she was beside me immediately, "Master! Talk to me, dear master."
Shit," I said weakly. "Feel so drained," I said, then felt the darkness close in.
I think I was dreaming, at least I felt as if I was dreaming. I felt as if I was being carried then I was lying on something soft. I also had something extremely soft lying next to me.
I wasn't sure just how long I was out, but I didn't feel all that much better when I woke up.
Victoria Rayton was pacing in her living room. She's just received a call from apparently her niece's boss. He had her on the way to the hospital. She had been mumbling that she was trying to separate her and John. It hadn't make sense to him.
Victoria hung up the phone a far away look on her face. "What has happened," a blond woman said, coming out of the kitchen.
Victoria shook her head, "she remembers the night of the separation. Shit, this is getting worse and worse. She thinks I am her savior, how in the hell can I tell her that it was both of us? That the council and I approved it? "
"We should have killed her that night as I suggested," Tawny said, a look of anger and concern on her face.
"No!" Victoria almost shouted, then lowered her voice. "We had John to control her, at least 'til she lost control, and he was still there."
