Inara did not have time to register if the person was a male or female but she stood there in the water, frightened. The person was underneath the water and she kept looking closely at the surface, trying to decipher where he or she would emerge.Then with terror, she saw bubbles over the water in close proximity before her, which told her the current position of the person. She opened her mouth to scream as the person emerged directly in front of her, forcing one hand swiftly over her mouth and blocking out her scream, trapping her body and pushing her into the water.Inara’s eyes opened wide, her heart thundering as her assailant

Lemuel could not believe it. It wasn’t like he had placed a restriction on her that day just for the sake of it. He had explained the reason for her as clear as crystal. What had she been trying to prove? He could not understand it. She knew about the danger, yet she ventured outside.Of course it was possible that Suzy could know about this vacation spot of theirs. She had been his secretary and scheduled his trips. He had thought that her jealousy would pass with time. Why she was jealous, he could barely fathom. If she was this psycho crazy about him, he wondered why she had gone sleeping around. He had also thought that the undertaking with the police would keep her at bay but it seemed like, nothing was working. And now she had come here during his honeymoon to cause problems. If the law wasn’t working, he too could play the take the law into your hands game. But that was an issue to address later. For now, Inara’s recklessness was ninety-nine percent, the cause of his fury.“I as

Lemuel made his way into the bedroom and decided to make a call to the yacht driver. Sitting down on the couch with his phone in hand, he dialed the man’s number who picked up in one ring.“Yes Boss.”“Dan, could you come pick us up first thing tomorrow?”There was a brief silence at the other end and Lemuel knew that the man was surprised. The end of their honeymoon was close but had not elapsed.

The yacht was coursing through the meandering lake, maneuvered by Lemuel who was the only one out on the deck in the driver's control room.He hadn’t called Dan to change his mind so he was being the captain of the ship so to speak.They had been going for about fifty minutes and there was nothing but overgrown trees and bushes on either side of the lake at this point with the sounds of calling birds, animals and crickets in the air.He had kicked off the engine away from the Island by 7:00am that morning and be

Inara moaned and cried out in delight as she came apart under Lemuel’s frantic thrusts inside her. It felt so good to finally satiate all that pent up arousal from the previous night. As they caught their breaths, she let her mind dwell on the moments leading up to the present.She was on edge, horny all through the ride home. And the moment they were inside the bedroom, he kissed her, her body warming up to him fast and she pressed herself closely against him, unable to mask her need for sexual intimacy.He broke the kiss and moved his lips against her ear, taking little tender love bites at her earlobe. He knew that after her last punishment, she would be in heat and if it wasn’t for the fact that he had been driving, he would have taken her in the yacht, no doubt.“Want me to satisfy those little tingles baby girl?” He mumbled against her ear and she nodded, her cheeks coloring red. He chuckled at her shyness, then inhaled her deeply.

Amara’s exhibition came up in the evening the next day. The guests that she had invited were looking impressed with her work. Inara and Lemuel were among them following Amara who was taking them through her paintings.The interior of the exhibition hall, which was medium sized, did have a creative, out of the box look. Zee had plastered several parts of the walls with earth colored fabrics. Against each of the pillars inside the hall, Zee had erected tall, live green plants, which she tied to the pillars with brown woven ropes to keep them from falling off the pillars.In the middle of the hall, an artificial fire burned. At first glance, it looked like the kind of fire that one would make during camping with a few dry woods. However, Zee’s version was a bunch of real dry woods that surrounded a bunch of battery-operated candles that burned like real flames, the candles, wrapped with brown paper to make the whole set up appear real.Inara had not been too surprised to find Zee at a cor

Inara was inside Lemuel’s Office with him. It was modern, large and airy because of the minimal furniture and basic amenities like fridge, air conditioner, television, bookshelf and microwave all well organized. On his large office table, he had a picture of himself and his family, his family and Inara’s family on their wedding day and himself kissing Inara on their wedding day. She hadn’t known he had all that displayed. It made her feel good.On their way to his office, they had passed several people along the hallway, exchanging greetings here and there with them complimenting him that his wife was lovely when he in

Inara had been home for about four hours when the call she had been expecting finally came through. She was already having lunch, another diet dish consisting of a cup of coffee and two drumsticks.It surprised her that the thought of cheating on her diet had long since disappeared, which was a good thing. Otherwise, now that Lemuel was not around, she would have found a way to cheat which wouldn’t have helped her in the end but only spoil her chances of success and put her in trouble with him.She brought the phone up to her ear, her food secondary now. She really missed him. She had never thought that she would. Things did change

Dark Love Epilogue
One Year, Six Months Later The day was bright and sunny with a clear blue sky that was almost surreal. Heaven’s Vine had a full congregation witnessing the wedding ceremony between Nana and Feedwell. Reverend Anthony was officiating the ceremony at the altar where the love stricken couple stood, facing each other before him. In the congregation, Lemuel was seated beside Inara, her hand in his. He was wearing a navy colored suit while she was wearing a long peach colored dress. She looked radiant and a bit plump like a nursing mother. “I still can’t believe that I’m supporting those two.” He said, smiling. “They clearly broke the domestic rule.” Inara chuckled. “Because you love them.” She said. “They captured your heart.” “Just like you captured mine.” He said caressing her hand with a finger. She blushed. “Definitely, sir.” “Hmn. That’s true. They are very efficient and I will miss them.” “Why? They made it clear they weren’t leaving.” “I know but I’m sure it’s out of loyalty

The room was a six-by-six with soft ashen vinyl walls and low, level ceilings. A hospital bed fitted with leather restraints took up most of the floor space. High up on one wall was a solitary window. It had the translucent look of old Plexiglas and steel posts kept it barred.Detective Kyle was talking to a nurse who was already leaving them. She gave Lemuel a glance and walked away with a sullen face.The detective walked up to Lemuel.“This is Suzy’s room. She had a crazy moment an hour ago, kicking and screaming but has been stabilized. You’ll see her right about now.’’“Okay, I’m ready.”“Your conversation will be recorded and monitored by the Psychiatrist in charge of this place and other officers.”“I understand.”Shortly after, Lemuel was in a small room with the detective, a technical sergeant mounting a recording equipment and a male Psychiatrist in a white doctor’s coat who was in his sixties.Before them was a transparent glass that clearly showed a blank room fitted in the

“I should be aware of something like this.” Lemuel said furiously through gritted teeth. He didn’t want Inara knowing that something like that was going on. She hadn’t fully recovered from the trauma and the last thing he wanted was for her to know about what Milo had just told him.“The police detective thought it better not to tell you so that you can concentrate on taking care of your wife.”“That is not their call to make.”

The hospital sat on a headland overlooking the lake, enveloped in acres of emerald green trefoil that rolled and toppled into the city mist. It was a paragon of modest architecture, auburn-colored bungalows thrown unevenly around a two-story administration building, the compound veined with pebble pathways and flower beds, partly shaded by the spreading branches of shore live oak.Blade points of grey tile roof intruded upon a cerulean sky so untainted it bordered on the imaginary. At the intersection of land and sky, a single twisted city pine clawed at the sky. Beneath its swaying trunk, patches of yellow and blue lupine flowed like paint drips down a slanting green canvas.

Milo moved the seat-belt around Vann and belted her in. She was starting to panic, her eyes rounding with fright.“Hang on.” he said as he belted himself in.“Is the Officer following us a bad man?” Vann asked nervously.“Relax.” Lemuel said, “Even If he probably is, I’m sure he has orders from your beloved daughter not to harm a hair on your precious head.”

“What’s your name?” Lemuel asked the woman as he rose to his feet.“Vann.”“Get up. You’re coming with us.” he told her and the agent pulled her up to her feet quite roughly.“I’ll come willingly.” Vann stated. “There’s no need to be heavy handed with me.”“Desperate times.” Lemuel said and led the way t

“Is there somewhere you think she might be?” Lemuel pressed. “I really need to see her.”The woman shook her head and remained silent.“I’ve been trying her phone number but it isn’t connecting. Has she changed it like, does she have another one?”Lemuel pressed again.The woman hesitated and he suspected that she was not willing to divulge information about that. It w

The City’s bustling landscape receded as Lemuel rolled off one of the main express roads that gave way to a single lane road on which he drove for a few minutes until an arrow with a sign that said pal estate directed him northward.The estate was low cost and situated on a property line marked by a large flowering tree that shadowed low wooden gates. The gates were open, meant for décor rather than security.Lemuel parked across from the third apartment, which he knew, was Suzy’s and the agent parked behind him. Alighting from their vehicles, they both squinted at the harshness of the sun’s glare.Lemuel wondered where Inara was. Was she in a shelter or burning in the heat of the sun? Was she alive or dead? God forbid! He thought. She must be

The sun was out in its full glory, casting its shimmering rays across the horizon, scorching the earth and raising temperatures all around.In the woods, it was worse because there was no shelter but most of the wildlife didn’t mind and still carried themselves about. Birds flew, called and sang, perching atop branches of trees and surrounding hills while crickets chirped amidst varying sounds from different unseen creatures that filled the air as they wandered and basked at home in their habitat.Inara was not faring well. The forest wasn’t her element and under the heat of the sun, she was strapped to a dying tree with scan
