CHAPTER 26

"-Oh my God, Lucky are you OK?

-He’s unconscious. Answered Tom from the front seat. And you will be too if you don’t stop yapping.

-What do you want from us?

-I don’t want anything from him, I just don’t want him to ruin my plan. We were meant to be together, Elizabeth, and I intend to make that happen. You shouldn’t have married my nephew. You should’ve married me.

-Your nephew? She asked, confused

-Lucky didn’t tell you? I doubted he would. You see, Nikolas is my nephew. Because Helena is my mother. And, in a sick way, he’s the one responsible for the most beautiful thing that happened to me. When you and I made love in the park

-You’re sick

-Am I? Am I really? Am I the one who told my sick grandmother the name of my ex-girlfriend’s sister, knowing damn well that when Helena hears a name, that it could only mean troubles? Why do you think he did it? He wanted to be the one helping you up again, and Helena didn’t want you in his life.

-Nikolas may have mentioned my name to his grandmother, but he didn’t want it so that I could get raped."

Tom pulled in front of an apartment building and took Elizabeth inside the apartment on the second floor, gagged her and tied her up to a chair, while he went to get Robert. He threw him down like a garbage bag and kicked him to wake him up. Finally, Robert did, he tried to get up to get to Elizabeth and got kicked down again. Tom picked him up and sat him down on a chair before he tied his hands in the back and his legs to the legs of the chair.

"-Let me go Baker and I’ll think about not killing you. Said Robert through his teeth

-Oh boy, I’m scared now. SHUT UP!

-I won’t shut--"

Before Robert could finish his sentence, the back of Tom’s hand landed on Elizabeth’s cheek.

"-Now, either you shut up, or her pretty little face won’t be so pretty tomorrow. Tom said with an evil grin

-I’ll shut up. I’m sorry Elizabeth

-Now, let me tell you how we will proceed. First of all, Lucky said I wouldn’t get to you again and now, your knight in a shiny armor is tied and can’t help you. TOO BAD, he will have to watch"

Tom walked over the chair with Elizabeth and gently but firmly took her shirt away. She was only wearing her bra now to protect her, and Tom kneeled down before her.

"-Now, my love, let’s show this amateur how it is to make love"

He slowly passed a hand on her breast and tears came down her face. She was trying to tell him to stop, but she was gagged. Robert was watching with a rage growing inside of him, and he was fighting the tears.

"-Tom, what do you want? I’ll give you everything, everything you want, but please leave her alone. He said, trying to buy some time until he knew what to do"

Tom placed his mouth where his hand was, caressing her over the fabric of her bra, slowly, while she whimpered for him to stop. He made Lucky believe he didn’t hear him, before he slowly got up and turned around.

"-Let’s see who you love more. Elizabeth, or your own adoptive daughter. If it wasn’t for you, I’d have a chance with my daughter. I want you to call Kiara and tell her that you changed your mind, that she is allowed to see me. Better yet, I want you to tell her that you want her and her husband out. Tonight.

-I can’t do that, they don’t have the money to be on their own, yet

-That’s where I come in. I can take them for a while. Until she realizes she doesn’t need the Spencer boy, that I can make her happy

-I won’t give you my daughter"

Tom turned around and with one move, he took Elizabeth’s skirt out of the way. He kissed her leg, going up her thigh, and Robert saw more tears falling down her cheek, as this time she wasn’t able to defend herself. There was only one way to save her, for now.

"-All right, let me call Kiara. Robert saw Elizabeth shook her head

-I think she wants to talk. Said Tom. He took the handkerchief away from her mouth and told her not to play hero by screaming

-Lucky don’t do it. Don’t send Kiara here. I’ve survived the first time, I will survive this one"

Tom shut her up with a big kiss, and when she tried to wiggle out of it, he pulled her hair back to stop her from doing so and let his tongue caress the inside of her mouth, even as she was about to vomit.

"-Tom, give me a phone"

Tom got up and walked to the other side of the room to get to the cordless phone. Elizabeth was begging Robert not to do this, but Robert wasn’t listening. Tom placed the phone on Robert’s ear and told him no stupid stuff or Elizabeth and HE would both get it.

"Kiara, it’s Robert-- no we’re fine-- I need to tell you something though-- Elizabeth and I decided to try and live together, without the kids-- by the end of the week-end-- I don’t know and frankly, I don’t care-- Go to your real father, I don’t have to take care of you. Fine, and don’t forget to bring your pig, I don’t want that animal in my house when you are gone"

Tom hung up and smiled.

"-Good job. He said with a smile before turning to Elizabeth. How does it feel to know you are more important to him than his daughter?

-You make me sick

-And I can make you wet, too, so don’t push me or I won’t keep my side of the bargain"

He left her like that, scared and half naked, while he went into the other room.

"-How could you do this Lucky? She asked, in tears

-Me and Kiara have a code. If I told her to bring the pig, that meant Taggert. She is coming here with the police. I wasn’t about to let you get raped, but I wouldn’t give him my daughter either."

They were silent by Tom coming out from the other room and walked back to them. He told Robert he hoped he was enjoying the view he had of Elizabeth, and Robert didn’t answer. While they were waiting for Kiara, Robert saw Tom bring out a gun and started cleaning it.

"-You never had the intention of letting us go, did you?

-Nope, and you were foolish to think I did. I’m gonna make love to my Elizabeth, while you are gonna take Kiara. I bet you fantasized on her all these years, knowing she was beautiful and wasn’t related to her.

-Kiara will never go for it you sick man

-She is my daughter. She thinks like me, she just doesn’t know it yet"

A knock on the door interrupted them. Tom went to the door and opened it a little.

"-Kiara, you came alone?

-Yes I did. I didn’t tell Lucky where I was going, he doesn’t know. Dad, can I come in?"

Tom opened the door and let her in. She saw Robert and Elizabeth tied to chairs, Elizabeth only in her bra and panties.

"-Kiara, get out of here! Said Robert

-Why? He is my father, you’re not. Dad, do we have to keep them here?

-We don’t if you don’t want to.

-What are we gonna do with them?"

Tom had the biggest smile to see he was right about his daughter.

"-I want Elizabeth before we kill her. He said firmly.

-Fine, take her while I kill Robert. Kiara said coldly. Where’s the gun?

-Right here."

Kiara took the gun and looked at it. Tom went to Elizabeth and started caressing her fast and furious.

"-Hey dad? Asked Kiara"

Tom turned around and looked at her, his erection showing underneath his pants.

"-Is it painful? She asked, showing the erection with the gun

-Really painful, now let daddy do it’s thing

-It’s painful? What about this?"

Kiara fired two shots, aiming directly at his erection, and Tom fell on the floor in a pool of blood.

"-You hurt my mother time and time again, you will never hurt another woman with that thing"

Kiara, dropped the gun and fell on the floor, sobbing.
