Part 6
"Now you have her dancing her around in my dresses! You have gone too far with this Longinus!" said Diana pacing back and forth.
"She not dancing, she can barely walk." said Longinus smiling at the thought.
"Well you know what I mean...why can't we just lock her away?"
"Because I prefer it this way." said Longinus.
"I don't." said Diana.
"When was the last time I cared about what you thought?" asked Longinus.
"Don't talk to me that way."
"If it makes you feel any better..she hates your dresses." said Longinus laughing.
"That's not funny!" said Diana stomping her foot.
There came a knock to the door. "Who is it?" called Longinus.
The guard answered..."Molly."
Diana rolled her eyes. "I don't like her."
"Quite evident." replied Longinus.
Molly walked in smiling. "You called for me?"
"Yes actually." said Longinus...Diana sat next to Longinus..leaning her head on his shoulder...caressing him as if trying to make Molly jealous.
"What is it?" asked Molly annoyed.
"The guards have told me that you have been spending a significant amount of time with our beloved Catlin." he said. "More time than necessary, why is that?"
"Does it bother you?" she asked.
"No, it intrigues me."
Molly quickly changed the subject. "I want to go back to the sanctuary."
"What? Are you crazy, they'll kill you." said Diana.
"What makes you think they would accept you back there, and for what purpose?" asked Longinus.
"I want Connor." said Molly.
"Diana is right, he would kill you." said Longinus.
"What does that matter to you?..I know Connor, he would forgive me if he believed I was sorry."
"If he believed. And it does matter to me...a little." Longinus stood up..shaking diana off of his side.."You are still under my guidance. are you not?"
"Yes of course, but what use am I to you here? I need to connect with people again..."
"She has a point." said Diana.
"Explain what use you would be to me out there..." said Longinus. "What makes you think anyone would ever trust you again?"
"Just think if I could actually make them believe that I was sorry and that I returned to them of my own free will. They would think they know what you have planned....but in reality, you would be the one benefiting from this, you would know more about them." said Molly.
"You have given this much thought, but not enough to convince me. The confederation is weak...the time to strike is quite near. I wouldn't want you interfering again."
"But my interferance last time served you well." said Molly reminding him.
"True." Longinus thought about it for a while..."If I let you go..and they kill you..."
"They wouldn't kill me." said Molly interrupting. "I know them."
"If they did kill you it would be of no matter to me, you do this of your own free will." said Longinus giving permission.
Molly smiled and turned around...
"Molly, if you do interfere...if you tell the prince of Catlin...if you do anything to compromise me.... I will tear out your father's heart out, before tearing out your own." said Longinus.
Molly frowned without Longinus knowing and made her way out.
"You really think she won't say anything?" asked Diana.
Longinus just smiled.
****************************************************************************** Molly ran up to where Catlin was....she tried to look angry for the guards..."Get out! I need to speak with the whore." said Molly.
The guards left immediately. "I wish you wouldn't call me that." said Catlin, sitting there. Her hands bound to the chair she was in.
"I have to put on a show for the guards." said Molly.."I have some good news...I'm going to try to go back to the sanctuary."
"Is that such a good idea?" asked Catlin.
"I thought this would make you happy." Molly frowning.
"Not if they kill you." said Catlin.
Molly smiled, "Of course they won't"
"Have you thought of what you are going to say to them?"
"I'm sure it will come to me...I know my da....he will believe me." said Molly.
"I hope he does." said Catlin.
"I won't be able to come back if I'm truly to have them believe I'm no longer in allegiance to longinus." said Molly now staring at the floor.
Catlin gave a weary smile, she was going to be alone. "Good luck Molly. I hope you find our friends alive and well."
Molly looked at her. The kissed her on the forehead.."Someway I'll let Connor know. I promise."
She walked off, Catlin just watched her leave. "I really do hope you make it out there." she whispered to herself.
"Now you have her dancing her around in my dresses! You have gone too far with this Longinus!" said Diana pacing back and forth.
