Rescue

I hope you enjoy it. Nudity Warning

She lay on the bed facing away from me and I could tell she was ashamed of her nakedness. The window stared at us both with the blinds pulled open.

"Just get it over with." She murmured barely over the jazz in the bar downstairs. 

"Have you ever been with a woman?" My voice was calm and confident despite my fear she would walk away. Even a prostitute had standards.

"No but why does it matter? You all just want the same," her tone was bitter.

The mood was a shame considering how gorgeous her skin was in the moonlight. The freckled back faced me and there were bruises along her backside.

"Darling turn over. Tonight is about you." I kept my distance allowing the emotions to overtake me. I wondered how many had abused her to break her to this extent. 

She complied immediately and large green eyes met my gaze. For the first time the light illuminated her velvety orange hair. The curls were loose and bouncy there whereas the pubic hair was a tight knit of defiance. I hadn't meant to look but she spread her legs lewdly her face stone. Hard.

My eyes skipped over her belly littered in the faintest hints of stretch marks like she'd been pregnant but not for long and I marveled at the sight of the innocent flesh.

"Are you seriously just going to stare?" She'd seen my line of sight and her face colored in an embarrassed red tinge and her legs closed immediately. 

"just admiring your beautiful body," I replied coolly and her eyes locked with mine. Her legs part subtly, so subtly that my trained eyes barely noticed. That was my cue to step forward and kneel down in front of her.

"What are you-" she began but I interrupted her thought by placing small kisses on her knees and thighs. Her breathing hitched and I could tell she hadn't been touched this way before.

"Tonight I'm going to make you forget all they have done to you." My tone grew cautious because I knew this was telling. Her posture became stiff.

"H-how do you know about Them?" She looked scared and defeated. Like she wanted to tell me because it would kill her but that she wanted to live.

"I know a lot of things beautiful. I can make you dizzy with the secrets," my hand seemed to move of its own volition to her chin to lift and move her face gently so that our eyes met and all she could see was my face.

"They are going to kill me," she looked as if they already were.

"I will protect you." And I meant it. With me she would be safe while the crazy died down. I couldn't resist launching into a half stand to press my lips on hers. Her lips were stiff with surprise at first and I could feel them gradually relax but not pull away. They came alive in fact and the fervor increased until I no longer crouched before her. I was on top of her, her hands pinned between mine and the bed. 

A knock at the door broke me out of my ministrations of nibbling along her neck. 

"Times up weirdo," the male voice from the other side was the same as before. Same guy meant not a huge outfit. Or so I hoped. 

"Your right about that buddy boy. The time is up," I stood from my spot the sarcasm dripping from my voice and signaled for her to crawl under the bed before I walked to the door. 

"What the hell was that?" He boomed hand already jiggling the knob and I aimed through the door angling just right before pulling the trigger holding on to my double barrel with a practiced ease. The hole revealed a blood splatter of brain on the nearby wall.

"Time to go," I rushed to the window pushing it open and helping her out of it as the footsteps pounded up the stairs. I got out the window as the bullets started flying and draped my trench coat over her shoulders. The snow came down in flurries which made it easy to slide down the roof holding her close.

I jumped and to my surprise she leaped with no fear.

The bad news was that snow left easily visible tracks and the snowfall was not dense enough to quickly cover it. We ran down an alley past people on their way home from work and on their way to dinner. 

"Am I worth all of this?" Standing there in the snow barefoot in nothing but my trench coat it wasn't hard to see how she valued herself. Her doe eyes were heartbreaking they were so beautiful.

"Princess you are worth more than all of this," and I meant it. 

The gunshot rang in my ears for minutes after I registered it was even pulled. A loud thud into the snow.

The large body of a thug now lay next to the feet of my associate.

"About damn time Valentine." I pulled her with me to our exit, escape within reach.
