I woke up feeling like I had a bad hangover, my head was pounding. I looked around to see ... wait what?
Where the hell was I? I sat up and hobbled to the window. The outside was moving through the window, over water...
A boat … oh, I’m on a boat. I sat back down on the bed and relaxed ... for a millisecond.
Wait, what?? I’m on a boat?! I shot right up off the bed. I tried to focus and it hit me.
I was standing at the salon and people grabbed me off the sidewalk.

Gifted Shadows 70 - There's No Way In Hell
We rode in silence for well over three hours before coming to a castle/mansion I wasn’t even sure what to call it. It was probably older than my country and just as heavily guarded.I had fallen asleep on and off and I wasn't sure I could handle any more surprises. It was going to be tough to get out of this place, and even if I did, we were miles from anywhere. I only had on sandals. I was certainly in no condition for running … as if I stood a chance.We pulled up in front of the main door and someone opened my car door. That same man waved his hand to follow him and he led me inside. There were military like men every twenty feet or so all around. If this were Colombia I would think it was a drug lord’s house, heavy military presence for security and ridiculously extravagant.

Over the next few weeks, I was waxed from head to toe. The maid instructed me to put lotion on myself several times a day. I was put on a strict diet with a lot of fruit, which I didn't actually mind. My hair was softened and cut a bit which kind of pissed me off.A doctor “investigated” me to make sure I didn’t have a birth control implant. That part, didn't go over too well. They had to tie me down since I put up quite a fight.In between all of my "prepping" I was also having fittings for my wedding dress.I tried to speak with some of the servants to get information, but the language barrier was an issue.Dr. Karlsson came and tried to speak to me again, multiple times, but I told him to go fuck h

A maid returned and I put my small bag in a slightly larger one that had a change of clothes and a pair of flat shoes. I eagerly met her at the door, so she wouldn’t come in and see the broken mirror. She seemed in a hurry so she didn’t care about anything I was doing.This place was so damn big, we walked for nearly ten minutes across the house and upstairs before finally coming to a door.My heart was racing and it was about to pop out of my chest. I was grateful no men saw me walking around dressed like this, but maybe they were all ordered to stay away.She pushed the door right open and no one was in there. I went in, clutching the robe around me, and feeling very naked.I sat my bag down on a dresser and sat in a chair, careful of the

He began to play with my panties using his tongue, but he brought his hands back up to my chest grabbing me hard. I just laid stiff wondering if I really had the balls to do this. I couldn’t allow any room for doubt, I couldn’t psych myself out.One thing was certain, I wasn't letting this man rape me, I would die first. That only meant one thing, I had to do this.I was so lost in my thoughts I pretty much separated myself from what he was doing. My hands were now up under the pillows clutching the shards, and he wasn’t paying the least bit of attention. I needed to get his throat back up near my face, but he seemed content where he was down below.He started moaning and kissing over the outside of my panties. I took a deep breath and sharply kneed his face, trying to close my legs tog

I ran to a mirror on the wall and saw my face pretty worked over, and lips were bloody. I immediately held my burning stomach, realizing I shouldn’t have gotten up so quickly.My shirt was ripped in several places and I had numerous cuts. It had to have been Hashem.Whoever it was must’ve kicked me real good, likely had some broken ribs. I looked around for my bag … nowhere to be found.I stuck my shard sock back in my pants.I heard yelling then POP POP POP POP!Gunfire?Fuck!I ran to the window, and I was still on the first floor thankfully. The window didn’t have any obvious locks but ye

My eyes opened to a flashing light, and I was moving.I was running … no I wasn’t the one running.I felt like I was on fire, I felt like I must be dead.Voices, voices everywhere.Was I dreaming, was I dead?I was being carried, that’s who was running.I just saw lights flashing by, someone breathing heavy and the pain.Ohh, there’s the pain.“I got her, I got her!”English?Who was this?More voic

Just when I was about to ask what all was going on and where Marcus had been the last few hours, I heard a door close and he walked in.“Ian and Luke are solid,” he said beaming.“Fuck, that’s great, really great,” Javi said.He turned to me, “we can’t all leave at the same time, it would draw too much attention. We’re the last three, now we just need a plan for us to get out.”"Honestly, I still think my plan is a good idea, it’s just a matter of getting someone with some money, that travels, where it won’t arouse suspicion that they are here,” Marcus said.“What’s your idea,” I said.

My name is Toby Matthews, CIA.”“Hey I remember seeing you around the math lab. Oh shit, is it Rae, what happened, is she okay,” I froze but stepped out of the way so he could come in.I was in my boxers … I could have put on some shorts but I was too desperate to know what was up.Rae had been missing now for a month and the whole damn world was glued to the TV waiting for any news.

Gifted Shadows 86 - She Sacrificed Her Dignity
~One Year Later, Rae’s Point of View~I was utterly and completely exhausted. I had been up two days helping finalize the new build for our D.C. village location. We really wanted to hit up L.A. next since the homelessness situation out there is beyond dire, but with a small baby we just couldn’t be back and forth like that right now.We let Marcus take the reins on L.A., and he was out scouting locations and getting conversations started to make it our third location. The guys were really flourishing and it just seemed like this what we were all meant to be doing.Even more time flew by and we were now about 95% finished with things for the D.C. location ... I was so ready for it to be done. We planned to take a long and much needed month long vacation once it was ready.
Gifted Shadows 85 - The New Best Night Of My Life
Rae had on a sexy little dress that hugged her body perfectly. I was hard just looking at her, but I usually was anyhow. She got us a quiet booth in the back and had actually reserved the table in front of us too for a little privacy.I didn't like her being in public with so little covering her. Her body was only for my eyes, but she was so happy and with today's news I wasn't about to pick a fight or make her feel self conscious.I slid in next to her, instead of in front of her. This way, both of our backs were to the room and it was less likely anyone would see us.Unfortunately, that meant I couldn’t see anyone coming but I was willing to risk it. We ordered drinks and an appetizer even though I already wet my appetite a few minutes ago, I thought … licking my lips and still tasting her
Gifted Shadows 84 - I'm The Lucky One
Javi and I got so busy over the next few months, as you can imagine … I forgot to renew my birth control shot until it was well over a month past its time. We still humped like rabbits every single chance we got and something just told me I was knocked up.I was desperately putting off taking a test because a test meant it was real. A test meant people getting excited and wanting to talk about it all the time. A test meant Javi probably sticking me in the RV and not letting me out.Part of me was pissed I let this happen, and part of me was excited. As I thought about letting myself get excited, all I could think about was mom. Having a baby without my mom. Man, that is going to be rough.Dad was now dating a nice lady and seemed pretty happy. He’s only met Javi now a few times, but he
Gifted Shadows 83 - The Village
We first had to decide what city we wanted to be close to, and we all decided on being between Philly and NYC for our first spot. That would also put us a bit closer to Corey’s cabin. We decided to let Corey in on it, and he and Javi both were putting up $10 million each.As we started to get plans together, we were hopeful this initial investment would be enough to fund maybe three or four villages until we could start getting other donations. I had never been so excited and consumed by something, it gave me such hope and it was the breath of fresh air we all needed.Corey’s dearest Perry, of course acted as our counsel and was helping with the paperwork to begin a non-profit. Javi had a lead on a 70 acre lot in Doylestown, just north of Philly and only about three hours from Corey’s cabin.
Gifted Shadows 82 - I Know These Guys
The day after the presser we were all just exhausted. I was beat from the incessant questioning from dad and Erik. Chris and Mary were leaving in the morning and going to spend the rest of the visit on their own.I finally got dad and Erik to leave us alone and I was so ready for some quality time with my husband.Dad hadn’t even been gone for five minutes when the doorbell rang, and I thought maybe he’d forgotten something.Javi answered the door and there stood two men … one was older and the other looked like the Hulk. Javi must have been expecting them because his eyes lit up and he welcomed them in. They came in and the older man sat at the kitchen table with a briefcase, handcuffed to his wrist.What the heck?
Gifted Shadows 81 - Care To Comment
The death of Maziar reverberated through the region and the other actors who were also working on the bomb intel were backing away. There was really no other option.Javi said before they left Maziar’s house, they threw cooking oil and liquor on his white boards and lit them on fire, after taking pictures of it all. I didn’t care to look at any of it, I wanted to forget it desperately.Noora had to die for their stupid bomb.They gave the information to Scott, and whatever he was going to do with it, I wasn’t sure I cared. Various news outlets were already reporting wild stories, some true and some nowhere near true.The agency would not be releasing that I killed Maziar and Hashem, and I
Gifted Shadows 80 - Good Luck With This One
After Fletch left I sat by myself on the couch for a few minutes, and tried to process what just happened. My head was spinning and I felt like I was going to throw up. I knew Javi would press me to know what we talked about, and I don’t know if I could tell him Fletch wanted to propose.Would he second guess himself?Would he always wonder in the back of his mind if that was who I really wanted?He was always so nuts whenever another guy was around, knowing that another man offered me a ring, whew that’s heavy shit. I was torn, but I also operated under the assumption I would likely never see Fletch again.In the end of my own pep talk, I decided not to tell him. I picked the rubberband up off the arm of the couch and wrapped it aroun
Gifted Shadows 79 - Rubberband
I tried to figure out how to ask Javi to marry me while we were in Europe. I didn’t care if he put a rubber band on my finger, I was beyond in love with him and that was all I needed.There were sandwiches waiting for us on the second plane and we pretty much inhaled them. I also had an ice cold coke, and it was phenomenal. With a full belly and a hopeful mind, I fell asleep with my head in Javi’s lap.“Wake up baby, we made it,” Javi said whispering in my ear.I opened my eyes and looked out the window, the sun was coming up.“A new dawn, a new day,” I said.“Exactly why I don’t want to wait baby, I had Toby find a pastor on base, if you’ll s
Gifted Shadows 78 - Run
None of us slept, we were all just running on adrenaline at this point.The pilot on the plane was going to meet us and smuggle us on. Javi said the pilot, who was this businessman’s usual guy, was actually retired Air Force and happy to help us. Javi didn’t think it was fair that the pilot not know what he was getting into. I couldn’t believe the lengths people were going to, for us ... for total strangers and it kept bringing tears to my eyes.Marcus arranged for a van to take us to the airport and my heart was racing. Javi didn’t let go of my hand and he was making me hot and sweaty. We were on a dirt access road and it was pitch black, but I hoped that would work in our favor.I could see the plane, it was about a only about a quarter mile away. There was a van with the
