"Are you certain? Are You!"
"Yes!" she shrieked as her hair was pulled further back and she looked directly into the accusing eyes glaring down at her.
"If you are wrong," he threatened, glaring down at her.
She shook her head as best she could.
"Nno, it's them! I, I saw them!"
Releasing her, he shoved her towards the ground where she wisely remained.
"For your sakes, Justine, it better be. I don't allow for third chances. You've failed me once. Don't make me regret not killing you earlier."
With those words spoken, Daniel Holt walked out of the shady room, not suitable for filth but where he had allowed her some freedom. The room was all hers, not that that was saying much.
Justine got onto her feet. She walked over to the door, thinking that maybe she was finally getting somewhere. If she was lucky, then maybe she could regain Daniel's trust.
Justine wanted the freedom that Daniel Holtz had promised her. Eternally and never ending wealth, he had said.
But she had yet to see any of that.
She groaned, holding her thinning arms around her slim waist. The door was cold against her bruised face, but Justine was grateful for the moment of peace.
Daniel Holtz was downright frightening when he didn't get his way with things. His determination and crazy ambition was what had made him such a great vampire hunter in his time. The added humiliation and suffering suffered at the hands of Angelus was enough to drive any man mad.
And he was just that.
Justine didn't consider herself a classy girl, she had spent a lot of her time surrounded by controlling men and Daniel was no different. Except maybe his whole vendetta thing.
She could hear his movements throughout the other rooms in the rundown apartment. She could hear him pacing and mumbling around, growling at himself every few minutes. Whatever he was planning, it wasn't going to be pretty.
The room was cold and damp. There was no heater or electricity in the whole apartment. She had never thought that Los Angeles could get that could, but now she knew she was wrong. She wondered if Daniel even knew that electricity existed.
She was hungry, but asking for food would be pointless. Unless she brought something back that was deemed worthy, she wasn't going to get any sort of hospitality.
Justine could have run off when Daniel had let her go out that day. She could have marched straight to the police station and would have had Daniel arrested before he even knew what was going on. But she didn't. She couldn't. She had sought him out, had wanted to join him in this journey for justice. And maybe she was crazy, it wasn't as if she loved him or he loved her back. That was not what they had between them. She wasn't even exactly sure what there was between them.
All she knew was that when the door opened and the initial blindness left her eyes, the smile on Daniel Holtz face was like a glimmer of hope.
