*~Chapter Nine : Untied~*
"I'm not going to rape you, Marty. I promise I won't... but you ARE going to give me what I want," Todd breathed. "You're going to give it to me willingly."
Marty shook her head in denial as Todd used the sharp blade to cut away her clothing. The silk slip was cut away, followed by the matching ivory panties. "You're so beautiful," Todd whispered as he softly stroked her skin.
He ran a tender caress over her tummy, relearning her curves with his large hands. He kissed her shoulder as he bent over her on the bed. "I need you, Marty," he said in an aching groan. "I missed you so much."
She let out a confused little whimper as he unzipped his pants and freed his thick, hard cock. She was unable to move as his hand slid down between her legs, parting and caressing the delicate folds. His touch was tender and sensuous. Her body reacted with growing moisture.
Looking into her eyes, Todd gave her a triumphant smile. "I knew you wanted me. You are mine, Marty. MINE! Never forget that."
He took her lips in a blazing kiss as he joined their bodies as one, sinking deep into her hot center. All her protests were lost in the fever of their kiss as passion rose up and flamed between them. It was hotter than the crackling embers in the fireplace. The room exploded in ecstasy as they both gave in to their longings.
After it was over and their orgasms had faded, Marty could not look at Todd. Tears slipped from her eyes as painful sobs rose from deep within her soul. Looking at her tied to the bed, Todd felt horrible. Without a word, he cut away her bonds. He felt sick inside as he zipped up his pants and quietly left the room. He locked the door behind him and headed toward the nearest bathroom.
A few minutes later, Todd entered the nursery to check on Cassandra. His daughter was seated at child-sized table near the window with couple of her favorite teddy bears. A porcelain tea set had been laid out upon the table. Todd ached anew, seeing the sadness reflected on his daughter's face.
"Where is Mommy?" asked Cassandra. "When will she be here? And when can I see Daddy Jason?"
Todd's heart hurt when he realized how much Cassandra was missing her mommy. Taking his daughter into his arms, Todd promised, "I will take you to see her soon."
He cuddled his little girl and asked, "Do you like it here, Cass? Do you want to stay here with Daddy?"
"Yes, but I want Mommy, too," Cassandra answered.
Todd was pleased when the child didn't add that she needed "Daddy" Jason as well. He kissed his little girl's cheek and carried her over to the bed. As he was tucking her in, he offered to read her a bedtime story.
"Thank you, Daddy," Cassandra said as she lightly caressed his cheek.
Todd gazed into Cassandra's bright blue eyes which were so much like Marty's. His daughter was counting on him and he couldn't let her down. He reached for the storybook and began reading it to Cass.
"Once upon a time there as a king and queen. They lived in a grand castle with their sweet little princess. They were incredibly happy until a pony-tailed dragon came to the castle and started causing a whole lot of trouble..." Todd improvised.
