"Mr. Stanton. Eyes up here, please." The woman tapped her nails on the table between us.
I raised my eyes again, focusing on the woman's face instead of the unbuttoned top of her shirt – that peeked down into that nice little bit of cleavage she was showing. Her light brown hair was tied back in a small bun, and she wore a pair of square glasses. She was pale-skinned, and her blue eyes were quite clear. Beneath that prim grey jacket, white blouse, and pencil skirt was an obviously nicely shaped body. She couldn't have been older than thirty-five. The only thing about her that wasn't pretty was her sour, over-serious demeanor.
We sat together in the room they'd put me in; it wasn't the sort of prison cell I'd been expecting. Instead of a concrete box with a bunk bed and a toilet, this was more like a hotel suite – the walls were done up with a nice, cream-colored damask-pattern wallpaper, the floor was a thick berber carpet, and the furniture was mostly heavy stained wood – if looking a bit used. It was well-lit, and there was an odd smell in the air – like the sea. Perhaps we were near the ocean?
There was no doubt, however, despite appearances, that I was in a cell. When I'd first awoken here a few hours ago, dressed in only a simple pair of pants and a shirt, I'd tried to break out – first trying to barrel through the door and nearly dislocating my shoulder, then almost breaking my knuckles trying to remove one of the ventilation grates. Whatever windows had once been in here were paneled over with solid metal. I wasn't sure if it was previously an abode that had been repurposed into a prison cell or vice versa.
A few minutes previous, the door had suddenly opened, and three armed men with guns trained on me had stepped inside. They were clearly professionals, and kept me at a distance – and they were all bearing automatic shotguns instead of the small-bore assault rifles they'd carried in the past. They knew how to fight me.
I'd gone free for sixteen years, globe-hopping and shacking up with one of the girls or another. Melody and Hannah fit in well, and by then I'd also recruited Wren, Monique, and, less than a year ago, Sasha. The family was growing, and it pained me that we all remained separate. My new power had served me well; they never seemed to expect it, and even if they did, they always underestimated the power that raw lust had to control a person and override everything else. The girls, too, seemed to like when I used it in the bedroom, in smaller and more controlled doses.
I'd become confident, and quite adept at avoiding capture, and my practice in martial arts, meditation, and focus had all advanced quite a lot over the years. I was going on fifty years old at that point, though a normal human looking at me likely wouldn't have thought I was over thirty.
Despite all that, I'd been captured again – and I was still more than a little upset about it. They'd intentionally caused a riot at a major soccer game just to draw me out, and, before I went down in the chaos and confusion, I'd seen that they hit me with what appeared to be a horse tranquilizer fired from a modified sniper rifle. They'd waited until Wren was away and off buying us some food to strike. In hindsight, I'm glad; had they decided to attack while she was there, they likely wouldn't have bothered to try taking her alive.
I cracked a small smile at the woman in the room with me. "Sorry. You look great, by the way. I never got your name."
She glowered at me for a moment, then laid down a hand on the table, next to the blank legal pad on which she'd apparently been planning to write. "You can call me Miss Shields. I'd like to continue, if you wouldn't mind."
"Let's." I grinned. "Where were we?"
"The terms of your surrender." She sat back in her chair. "I'm still waiting. The committee is willing to be very generous. You've been very costly to pursue and capture, and all we really want from you is the truth."
"The truth." I chuckled. "About what?"
"You. What you are, where you came from. We have only a few parts of the story and we'd like you to fill in the blanks. In return, the committee is willing to forgive all your crimes and the damage you've caused, even the loss of life-"
"How generous, to end a fight you started, and to forgive my self-defense." I sighed, and leaned back with my hands behind my head. "Let's talk about something else."
"Like what?" She sounded testy now. "I'm only authorized to discuss the terms of your surrender. If you aren't going to talk about it, we have nothing to discuss." She stood up.
"Sit back down."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Stanton. I'll be back tomorrow if you're willing then-"
Using the power came very naturally now; it was more an art than a science. A touch here, a little bit of focused interest. Adding something where there was only idle curiosity before. "Sit back down. I want to talk to you."
She peered back at me quizzically, then turned and finally sat back down, looking down at the table and seeming a little confused. "If you insist."
"I don't want to call you Miss Shields. It's boring. Give me your first name."
"It's – umm – Vanessa." She seemed flustered all of a sudden. Good. She was very receptive to the power; she probably had some repressed desires, just waiting to have some life breathed into them. I reached out with the energy again, this time letting it work within her body; within moments, her attraction to me was making her wet, and her nipples were getting hard under her bra. "I should go. I shouldn't be here if we're not... umm..." She seemed to lose her train of thought... probably because I was hijacking it.
"That doesn't look like a comfortable spot... come on over here." I stood up, offering a hand outward. She reluctantly took it, and followed behind me as we went into the far room and I sat down on the bed. She made as if to sit in the chair opposite me, but I grabbed her by the waist and yanked her back toward me – with a yelp, she suddenly plopped onto my lap, sitting upright, and inches away from my face. Wide blue eyes stared into mine.
"We shouldn't be doing this..." She sounded very unsure now. I reached out one more time, giving her mind a final push towards readiness. Lust was flooding her rigidly controlled mind, overriding everything and forcing her to lose control. It was always the most fun to do this to the really repressed girls; I kept my powers in check, generally, and had only gotten to have this particular kind of fun a couple times over the years. The more repressed they were, the more fun it was to crack the shell and let out the animal inside all of them - and the more ferocious and hungry they were for my cock when they emerged.
"We shouldn't be doing anything else." I slid one hand down her leg, and the other up her back. Pulling her closer, I kissed her deeply. She resisted for a few moments at first, then she began to melt. I felt the heat of her body with my free hand – the one that was sneaking up under her skirt. The dampness of her panties was immediately apparent. Finally, I broke our kiss, and let my upper body fall back onto the bed. "Ahhh... isn't that much better? This is a much more comfortable way for two people to communicate, don't you agree?"
