AN: I'm sooo sorry it's taken me forever to update, but between being outta town and school starting (bleh), I just haven't really had the time. I know, excuses and excuses. But I just wanted to apologize. I know how annoying it can be when authors don't update very often, and you really want to find out what happens next. I'll try not to do that, but I can't make any promises. So now, without further ado on to..............
Ch. 8
Slowly trudging behind her "escorts", Rain was praying to any god who'd listen to help her get through the next couple of hours. She knew it was going to be dreadful when she opened the closet to find this red dress, and instead, found practically half of one. Although it draped to the floor, it had a rather large slit in one side up to her thigh, and plunged sinfully low in both the front and back. Remembering his threat though, she had simply sighed and put it on.
'Please be alright Domon.' She pleaded in her thoughts. Thinking of Domon got her mind off of the current situation and could be the only way she would get through this awful dinner.
The guards had stopped in front of a set of double doors and opened them for her. Taking a deep breath, she slowly stepped into the room.
Once her eyes had adjusted to the dimmer lighting than in the bright hallway, she saw a table filled with all sorts of food, and Wong sitting at one end, grinning like the cat who swallowed the canary. He stood when she entered and motioned to the guards to shut the door. Walking towards her, his eyes slowly slide over her form and eventually, after what seemed like an eternity, met her gaze.
Rain couldn't have felt more like a slap of fresh meat the way his hungry look stared at her.
"Rain you look absolutely ravishing. That dress really does suit you." He said smoothly.
Rain scoffed at this, and turned away from him, crossing her arms in front of her. She already hated this and it hadn't even been five minutes yet.
"Now, now Rain, I didn't invite you hear to anger you. I just thought we could enjoy a pleasant meal together."
Knowing that that probably wasn't all he had on the agenda for the evening, considering his lustful gaze, but not wanting to ignore him and end up getting Domon hurt, she carefully sat down in the seat across the table from him, easily passing up the one directly next to him.
After seating himself, Wong continued to blatantly stare at her, enjoying her fidgeting under his gaze.
"I know you must be starved," he said after a few minutes, breaking the silence. "Go ahead and fill your plate."
When she made no motion to move, he picked up a bowl and started to pile food on his plate. "I don't want you to be afraid of me Rain."
Not wanting him to think she actually was she retorted rather heatedly. "Don't worry, I'm not."
Smirking that he had brought her out of her silence, he continued, "Well then eat up."
Keeping a continuous glare in Wong's direction, she began to put food on her plate. The quicker she ate, the quicker this dinner would be over with anyway, so why not play his little game.
"You know Rain, I rather do enjoy having you around. Perhaps I could arrange for you to be out of your room more often."
Knowing there would be strings attached to his "generous offer", Rain made no remark and continued eating, trying to ignore him as best as possible.
Realizing she wasn't going to respond, he took a deep breath and tried not to loose his cool. But if there was one thing that got to Wong, it was being ignored.
"I see you don't like my idea. Well you can spend the remainder of your time in your room if you wish. I just thought I would try to do you a favor."
"I don't need any favors." Rain replied, not looking up from her food.
"No, no I supposed you don't...." he trailed off.
After a few more moments of silence, which Wong used to collect himself, Rain set down her fork, proclaiming that she was finished.
'I hope he lets me leave now,' she desperately thought.
'She ate like she was trying to win a contest. I bet she thinks she can go back to her room now. Well I'll just have to spoil her little plan.' He thought with a smirk.
"Seeing that you're finished, let's have some after dinner tea shall we."
Noticing the startled look, he realized that he was correct in his theory, and stood and walked over to her chair. Taking her hand rather forcefully, he pulled her out of the chair and led her over to a sitting area she had failed to notice before.
Sitting down on the couch, he pulled her down next to him. It was then that Rain understood the situation and alarmed, she leaped off the couch in a heartbeat.
"Now doesn't this look familiar Rain? (AN: earlier in her room, last chapter I believe) But do keep in mind what I had said about your beloved Domon."
Frozen in place, Rain was torn between wanting to run from this repulsive man and wanting to save Domon. During her internal conflict, Wong has risen and now stood before her.
"Remember all Domon has done for you over the years. And you can't even help him out in this simple way?" Wong knew he had almost won her over.
When he reached out a hand to caress her cheek, she only flinched a little and she barely even moved when his other hand snaked its way around her waist, drawing her closer to him.
'Think its Domon. It's Domon. Domon.' Was the mantra playing over and over in her head. 'Domon. Domon. Domon.'
As his lips came crashing unto hers, the speed of her song increased until the words ran together and became one.
'DomonDomonDomonDomonDomonDomon.'
But no matter how hard she tried to imagine it, these cold lips were not the same as her loves. The kiss was not filled with love and warmth, but was bitter and revolting.
A single tear leaked out from her clamped shut eyes and slid down her cheek falling to the floor.
'I'm sorry.....Domon.....'
Well that's all for now. I hope you liked this chapter! Until next time
