Mastering Charlotte Chapter 186: Alphas, Part 12
James"Mr Alexanders! This is a crime scene." It's Will Stanton's voice, sharp with rebuke and anger. "Will you kindly leave immediately." His flashlight aimed directly at me, he is merely an indistinct silhouette against the glare."Yes, of course," I mutter. "My apologies. I was leaving anyway."He walks up to me, footsteps scratching on the stone. "Have you touched anything? Disturbed anything?" And now I can see him, his face etched into hard-edged shadows."No, I was just looking. I wanted to see.... Where they had her.... It's like a living death." I look back to the disturbed patches of earth and his torch beam follows. "Are those…?" I can't finish the sentence.He mellows, sounding more sympathetic. "We think so, yes. Forensics are on their way.... It's hard to imagine, isn't it? Locking up kids in a place like this."Nausea rises, my gut clenching.Jade.... what did they do to you? .... How much of this do you remember?"I'm going to see to the bastards that

JamesAs we step into the room, Charlotte falters and instantly, Michael is there, her hand in his again........ and I follow, staying quiet."It's mirrored glass," says Will. "They can't see you." He nods across to the uniformed officer standing by. "And there are plenty of us around for you."She nods acknowledgement then stands and looks.On the other side of the glass stand nine men, broadly similar in looks and dress, all blank-faced, staring straight ahead.She surveys them, her gaze flicking from face to face, then points "That's him.""You sure of that?" says Will. "You don't want to think about it?""No, I'm sure. That's him."Will head-points Michael to take her out. He's looking tired, strained, with dark shadows under his eyes. But he tugs gently at her hand. "Let's get something to eat, eh?""She's going to make an excellent witness," comments Will after they leave."Yes?""Yes. Very sure of herself. She pulled Lauriz straight out of that line-up.

Richard"James, are you quite well?"He's pale, unsettled, and his concentration isn't on the job in hand. He isn't well. That's perfectly plain, but I'm not sure exactly what is bothering him....Restless, he stands, then sits, then stands again, swiping a hand through his hair.He wants to talk....I wait...."Richard.... I was down there, in that cellar."What the fuck....?"How...?""Never mind. I was there"What is the right thing to say here…?.... Damned if I know...."Not a pleasant place I imagine, a cellar?""No, it's not. But it's more than that. Richard, it looks as though there are.... remains.... down there, buried at the far end...."For a few seconds, what he's saying to me doesn't make sense.Remains…?.... Human remains?"James, you mean…? And that's where Charlotte was imprisoned? And the other children?""Yes, I can't stop thinking about how she must have felt.... "This isn't the James I'm used to. He normally seems so.... unto

JamesThe following morning Richard and Beth join us for breakfast, accompanied by Ross who from God-knows-where produces enormous quantities of oatmeal, eggs and ham, orange juice and coffee. Will joins us but only knocks back cup after cup of black coffee.After half an hour's steady work which leaves the table looking rather empty, both Michael and Charlotte look much revived."I want to go home," says Charlotte."It's pretty rough and ready," says Richard. "You're welcome to stay here. You'll be a lot more comfortable.""But it's not home," she says.Michael beams.That just made his day."There's no reason you can't," says Will. "We know now what we're looking for. So long as you have an internet connection you can do it all remotely.*****Over the next day or so, I try to stay cheerful at home, not to let my grim mood show. And all the while I wonder how to give the news to Charlotte that she can't return to her university.I can expect stiff resistance the

JamesCharlotte hasn't noticed me yet, so silently, I wait.... Her office is tiny, as befits a student trainee. The floor is a very basic vinyl lay and the walls are a bleak institutional beige. Haswell likes her, but she has to earn her privileges..... She'll enjoy them all there more when she gets there....But for all its lowly status, I know my Green-Eyes values this office and what it stands for above pearls..... She earned the right to it and it's hers....Just now, all her attention is locked on her laptop screen. She jabs at keys, swearing in a low voice, but not so low I can't hear what she's saying......... That is not the language of a lady........ She'll have to do something about that if she wants to get anywhere....With a final muttered obscenity....Why are swear words always either sexual or religious…?.... she sits back, arms folded, glaring at the screen, then abruptly spots me, jolting in her seat before her smile unfolds, blooming bright.

JamesI have her, open to me and barely able to do more than mumble.Her legs back over my shoulders as I kneel once more, I take a few moments to enjoy the view; her gorgeous pink pussy, blushing to scarlet and gleaming at the core with the trickle of her juices waiting to be enjoyed. Opening her up, I use both hands to stretch her wide for me as she quivers and trembles under my touch.I think she wants to pant, but through her stuffed mouth she can't. Instead, her breathing through her nose is loud and as I bob up to check she's okay, her chest is rising and falling rapidly.Her clit is begging for attention, so easing back the sheath, I taste the small shaft with the tip of my tongue. She rumbles and trembles and her perfume grows suddenly pungent with a rush of her juices.A finger inside her sodden pussy is hot and slick with her honey and she moans again as I add another finger, then another, stretching her as I delve in for her sweet spot. The inner muscle pulses arou

JamesBack at the house the workmen are packing up and leaving for the day. A solitary drill whines out from somewhere-or-other and Michael is standing at the front with a hard-hatted individual, alternately tracing out some detail on the plans spread out in front of them, then pointing out to the hotel and painting lines in the air. As we drive by he waves and smiles, and Charlotte bursts into a sunbeam smile."Why don't you go through to the hotel and have a bath while we're waiting for Michael. The workmen should have left, and you'll have some privacy." I suggest. "I'll get the meal on.""Don't you want some help with that, Master?" She peers across at where I am chopping onions."No, it'll only take me ten minutes to get it cooking. You go and relax. I can see you're tired."For 'tired'… read 'upset'........ and it's my fuckin' fault again...."Mmmm…" She nods, noncommittally, then vanishes into the bedroom to emerge with towels and a robe. "I won't be long.""Tak

James"Ready?""Mmm, yes.""Thought so. You're very wet." Rotating my hips, I tease at her, pressing close but not entering. She twitches and jumps, her breath catching, and she tries to swing up to take me in, but I back away."No. Remember who is Master here."Her tension trembles through to me but she relaxes, lying back obediently."That's better. You can have a little more now." And I press in a shade further, coming to rest just inside her. Her silken pussy tightens around me, repeatedly constricting then relaxing....Ah.... sheesh....I bite down, swallowing hard to resist the urge to drive in deeply and once more, she tries to arch, to take me in. And once more, I pull away."I want to fuck you brainless, but I'm not going to. We'll take it nice and slowly this time.""Master, please.""No. Do as you're told.".... I'll have your obedience one way or another....She relaxes back once more, but her eyes are wild, her breathing rapid..... How far c

JamesMichael takes a moment before speaking, then, ".... All through your life, you've had everything thrust upon you. Even meeting James and me, you chose to enter the auction, but you did that out of necessity. I'd like to know what you want. Now that you are free to choose for yourself, what is it that you want?"And he falls silent, watching her, and waiting as she looks around at everything about us....And I wonder what she sees. With everything that life has thrown at her, the horrors of her childhood, the terrors of her adulthood, and now to be here, in this lovely place, with the home she always yearned for.And is that enough for her?She gestures around, hands trying to encompass it all. "What more could I want? We're all here, at last, together. I have you both. I have what I want."Yes!Result!Michael's eyes shift to mine....Definitely....She sees us, knows what is going on, and leans in to Michael as he kisses her. "I think I'm going to ask you to

Charlotte sits in the office facing Mr Chambers. He's middle-aged and pleasant enough, and clearly doing his best to make her feel at ease. Nonetheless, her embarrassment is excruciating and she can't look him in the face."Can I get you a cup of tea, Miss Conners? Or coffee perhaps?"Her throat tight. "No, thank you."If she tried to drink right now, she would bring it right back up again."Very well. I understand you would like to enter our auction for the sale of...." He picks up a sheet and reads.... 'The services of 'Charlotte' for the period of one week, those services to include anything required of her by her purchaser and also to include the sale of her virginity.' Is that correct?"She squeezes the word out. "Yes."He places the document on the table. "I should explain Miss Conners, that whilst you might find it easier to have a female representative to work with right now, here at the auction house we feel that a girl who cannot go through this interview with a m

RichardAt one of these interminable 'drinks dos' I am expected to attend, I do my best to put on a polite face. But I'm having trouble.I have the mayor on one side, "Since the plans were made public for the new City-Scape layout the share value has soared, Richard...."And my head of corporate law on the other. "There are still some legal obstacles to overcome...." argues Lazenby.I am unsympathetic. "That's what I pay you for."What I pay you a lot for........ So, stop whining and do your job.Listening to the mayor droning on, I nod politely, trying to appear interested but, in fact, my attention is half on the gathering at the other side of the room.As Charlotte and Elizabeth are chatting by the bar. Michael arrives, strolling across the lounge with that easy half-smile that is his habitual expression. Charlotte spots him and moves aside to make room for him."Hi, Michael." Elizabeth's eyes are bright as she looks up at him.He returns the smile. "Hi, Beth. L

Richard"But you've been running 'Life and Fitness' in the City for years.… and turning a healthy profit, surely?""Yes, but you know how it is since two thousand and seven. All the banks have tightened up the rules."Bloody bastards at the banks....Pretty perfect for me though....How to approach this…??James said he has a problem accepting help........ Carefully...."Ummm.…Take this the right way, but I'd be happy to help."Glass in hand, Michael freezes, knuckles. His voice is barely polite. "Thanks, Richard, but I'm not a charity."James' meets my eyes again with a 'Told you' look. He laughs softly. "Now, who's suffering from stiff-necked pride?" Michael gives him a look that should have dissolved him on the spot, but James simply gives him a mild look, sucking at his teeth as he tries to extract a bit of peanut.I follow Michael's lead, keeping my own tone cool. "It wasn't a charitable offer, Michael. I'm a businessman. It was a proposal."He flush

JamesAs we leave, Richard murmurs, "Keep your face straight.""You might have warned me....""What? That you were my ace-in-a-hole?" Despite his advice, Richard's mouth is twitching. "Not a chance. It worked out so much better that you were surprised when he finally realised who you are."I glance over my shoulder to see that we are safely out of range, then stop and turn to face him. "Richard, who am I? I'm an architect. A good architect granted, but...."He lays a hand on my shoulder. "You, my friend, are the architect who will have changed the face of the City. Not many can make that claim. Your immortality is going to be standing as evidence around us for generations to come."It's an interesting thought."I never expected to be famous."He rocks a hand back and forth. "Perhaps not with the Common Man, but I looked through those Get-Well cards at the hospital. Did you?""Er, no.""You should. I asked Michael to keep them for when you left the hospital; for when

JamesMy mobile rings: Richard."James, I was having a word with Charlotte earlier. She's a little upset that the university is kicking up a fuss over the way her course options are moving around. The training periods, academic time and so on. It was all supposed to be arranged, but apparently, they're giving her a hard time over it.""Yes, I thought something like this might crop up. Did you have something in mind?""Absolutely. I know where this is coming from. The Chancellor, Wilmore, is fine, but the Bursar is an interfering busybody with an inflated sense of self-worth, who pokes his nose into every aspect of university life, whether it belongs there or not. If he didn't have tenure he'd have been out years ago.""So…?""First, I like you to have a word with Charlotte...."*****The crook of my thumb and forefinger under her chin, I force her face to mine, "Charlotte, is it that you want to attend the university? Or that, in a couple of years' time, you simply want

James"So how did it go?"Michael prises the cap off a beer bottle on the edge of the table then gulps down from the neck before wiping his mouth on the back of his hand. "It was.... surreal."I'm up and about and able to walk now, at the level of using the bathroom without the intervention of a nurse. Nonetheless, Michael's return is an excuse for me to climb back into bed, take the weight from my aching leg and draw a surreptitious sigh, which he pretends not to notice.And I'm happy enough to be here. Back in the beach house, the environment is soothing and convinces me to sleep more than I could have done in the renovation/building site which is our mountain home, even were we able to return there.I prop myself up against the pillows and Michael reaches around, rearranging them for me. When I'm settled comfortably, "Go on. I'm listening.""Cutting a long story short, Klempner admitted to murdering Charlotte's father, seemed to have some kind of crisis over her looking

And she seemed to like us.... Really like us I mean, rather than just pretend to because that's part of the job description. In the morning, we took her number, and later, we called her back. It went from there. We'd meet up with her a couple of nights a week. It became regular. And then.…"Blondie breaks in, his voice low. "A
