Chapter Six: Heart's Betrayal
She took his hand and they began to dance. He was a magnificent dancer. She half expected him to smash all her toes, but he didn't. Claire was only watching in awe. "Why does she always get all the fun?" muttered Claire. "Awww, don't be spoil- sport," piped Rebecca, "This might be just the thing she needs right now." Jill eyes continuously wandered over his shoulder only to see Claire, Rebecca, Leon, Carlos, and even Barry look at her, with huge smirks on their faces. Then a smooth voice filled through her ears. "I don't think we were properly introduced. My name is Thomas Verx, CEO of Verx Corporation and your name is." "Jill Valentine, former S.T.A.R.S. member," she stuttered while saying this.
"I heard about your terrible accident with your friend Chris. I'm extremely sorry," he said. Jill just then remembered Chris, her heart shattered once again. "If you don't want to talk about it, that's ok. I don't want to be prying. If you don't mind, would you like to see my house in the mountains tonight? Your friends can come too." Jill was taken back. Go over to his house? Is he kidding me? You know what that means Jill. He's one of those perverted freaks! Ditch'em, Ditch'em, Ditch'em! She shook the thought from her mind. This guy sounded pretty nice and besides Claire's always wanted to see a big mansion in person. I've already been in one, but it wasn't your ordinary mansion. "Ok, I'll go." "Great! I'll have my driver get ready at once!" He bowed, kissed her hand, and walked of. Jill turned to Claire who was the only one still watching. "I can't believe it we get to go an expensive mansion and you just scored a multi-billion, extremely hot boyfriend!" Jill was just blushing. "He's not my boyfriend!" Jill countered. "Yet," Claire added.
Thomas came back in a few minutes. "Well, if you guys are ready, we can leave now." Actually everybody were through dancing and were ready to leave at any time. The walked out into the cool spring air and were greeted by a black limo. Jill put on her coat and went inside along with everyone else. They arrived at the mansion 30 minutes later. It was enormous! 7 stories high and covered more land than a football field at least! The walked into the parlor room and saw dozens of leather sofas. Ivory ornaments and golden tray filled with dozens of enticing treats. "Dang it would cost me an arm an a leg just to get one of these plates," shouted Leon Carlos couldn't help but pop one of the cakes into his mouth. "Carlos! That's not polite!" yelled Rebecca. "Oh, it's quite alright. Help yourselves," added Thomas.
With those final words everybody went into a feeding frenzy, fighting for every scrap. Even Rebecca and Barry (the neat and polite ones) couldn't resist the opportunity. Jill was stuffing two treats at a time into her mouth when Thomas walked next to her and whispered something in her ear. "Will you follow me upstairs? I want to show you something." Jill suddenly felt nervous. Uh oh! What did I tell you! You should listen to your conscious more often Jill Valentine! But you never do! She shook off the little voice in her head and slowly walked upstairs. You know what he really wants to do up there! Dang why was she thinking like this. This guy seemed pretty nice. Besides she knew how to repel a rapist attack; no problem. He led her to a dim lit room. "Over here," he said softly. "O-o-o-Ok," Jill stuttered. They went to a desk next to a couch. On the desk there was a small piece of paper and it read: To: Sir Maxamillion Luctos We have completed plan Nova. Those S.T.A.R.S. members took the bait. We believe that Chris Redfield died in plan Nova. Sadly there were no more casualties. Your plan worked perfectly sir. Umbrella will rise again! From: B.B. Jill continued to stare at the note when she said, "How did you get a hold of this?" "Well," Thomas started, "it was dropped at my office and it said to deliver it to Jill Valentine. A man named Arthur Wesley sent it to me. Jill continued to stare at the letter when she felt something move against her back. It was Thomas. She turned around and saw his eye piercing into her. He stroked her hair softly. I knew it! I told you so Jill. You should've listened to your conscious. Get him off of you before something bad happens. But she couldn't. It was the way he stared at her. His hands were unzipping the back of her gown, before she finally reacted by pushing him away. He quickly grabbed her face and kissed her rather roughly: his other hand rubbing her thigh. She kicked him hard in the crutch and slammed her fist into his face. I hope I broke his nose or something. She zipped up her gown and ran downstairs. With tears in her eyes, Jill stormed into the parlor room and yelled to the gang, "We're leaving! Let's go!" They all stood up immediately. "But Jill," Leon started, but was interrupted by and extremely angry Jill. "NOW!" she yelled. Without another word, they all marched outside. It was a long walk home, but to Jill, it only lasted a few seconds. When they got home, Barry decided to spend the night. Jill went to her room and collapsed onto her bed and went to sleep, with tears in her eyes. Elsewhere though, someone else is stirring, only he's been stirring for a week.
