CHAPTER FIFTY TWO
CAPTURED
EMBRY CALL:
I got on a bus to Vancouver the very next morning after Kat phoned to explain that Rebecca and she had arrived home to some unexpected trouble. My fiancee sounded very shaken on the phone, there was no way I could stay here in La Push whilst she needed me. The dawn had barely broken as I boarded the bus to take me to my love. I had left a message for work explaining I would need the rest of the week off. I hoped they would be understanding, given the circumstances. I had to be near Kat, I had to protect her and make sure this jerk Quinn Taylor was out of her and Rebecca's lives for good. I'm sure a large wolf with grey fur and dark spots might be able to persuade him, I jokingly laughed to myself. I knew without a doubt that Rebecca would be raging angry with him. I would be afraid if it was me who was in her bad books. I wondered what she had planned for him?
I had booked into a hotel near to Kat's parents house. I hadn't met my future in laws yet so I didn't feel it was appropriate to put them to any trouble on my behalf. I made myself comfortable with a nice hot shower before ordering a late breakfast. I had just finished eating when there was a knock at my door. My smile was wide and happy as I found my beautiful Kat on the other side of the door. She leapt into my arms, her long blonde hair falling around my face and shoulders. "Oh Embry" she sighed against my neck. I carefully placed her onto my large king sized bed. She let herself fall, her hair fanning out behind her in a silky yellow curtain. She had on skin tight black jeans and a red clingy t shirt under a short denim jacket. Her red high heels were sexy on her small feet as she pointed a shoe at me cheekily. I gently removed the provocative item of footwear and kissed the smooth skin of her lovely foot. She giggled deliciously as my lips made their way up to her ankle. I fell down onto the bed beside her, eager to kiss her soft enticing lips.
Our lips came together in perfect synchronisation as always. Her scent and taste overwhelmed me as always. But this time there was something different in our passionate embrace. This time we didn't try to stop our desire for each other. When the midday sun reached it's zenith our clothes seemed to dissolve and disappear until our skin moulded and melded into each other as we gave ourselves completely in pure love and passion. No words were spoken between us, just sighs. No barriers, no discussions, it all just happened without conscious action. We had broken our promise to each other, but promises were sometimes made to be broken. I would never love another girl, I would never hold another girl like this, making love to her with my heart, body and soul. It had happened as it was meant to happen, despite our intentions of waiting until we were married. It almost felt as if a higher power was guiding us. We both let this mystical force sweep us away on our passionate journey.
Later, I held her close, our hearts beating as one and kissed her softly on the forehead. "That was even more unbelievable than when I imprinted on you Katherine Constantine" I whispered lovingly. She smiled and kissed my cheek, salty sweet tears on her face. "Don't cry my love. Are you all right?" I asked with concern. "I couldn't be more right" she said softly with a sweet smile."That was amazing for me too. I love you so much Embry!" she exclaimed. We hugged and kissed gently. We talked about what had happened with Quinn. Kat told me Rebecca was very angry and humiliated. Kat was upset because she believed it to be her fault. "I led him on for months Embry. I didn't love him, he was just a distraction really" she said with a frown. "It is not your fault Kat! The guy is unhinged! Rebecca and I will sort this." I had spoken with Rebecca on the phone this morning after I had arrived at the hotel. She and I planned to give Quinn a fright he wouldn't forget in a hurry! Kat didn't need to know. All I wanted to do was protect my girl.
Tonight we planned to stop his campaign against the girls dead in it's tracks. I needed to tell my fiancee a little white lie first. I told her I was tired from travelling and I needed to take a long soak in the bath and have a nap. "Then I will come to your house, meet your parents and take you out for a late romantic meal, just the two of us." I said with a smile. Kat nodded, "Of course my love! You must be so tired, especially after this lovely afternoon we've spent together" she winked cheekily. I laughed as I disentangled myself reluctantly from her. We kissed and hugged as she left my room. I sighed as I closed the door. I would miss her even though we would only be parted a few hours. I quickly showered and dressed. I sent Rebecca a text as I was leaving the hotel, asking her to meet me at our agreed place. I hoped our idea went to plan. She knew where Quinn worked. She knew he worked all alone. We had to nip this in the bud now.
I made my way out of the hotel and began to walk through the leafy park to meet Rebecca. I was in a world of my own dreaming of my Kat and the love we shared when I was suddenly jolted back to reality. A girl had rode into me on her bicycle and promptly fell over onto the pathway. "Oh I'm so sorry!" she exclaimed as I helped her up. "I wasn't looking where I was going!" she added with a smile. "That makes two of us" I said wryly. With her bicycle still discarded on the path she quickly flung her arms around me and pressed her body against me in a more than friendly manner. I put my hands on her hips as I gently tried to restrain her. "I'm such a clumsy fool" she whispered hoarsely in my ear. I pulled away from her, but she put her hands on either side of my head and pulled my lips down to hers before I could protest! She kissed me passionately and strongly, her hands gripping my face, her body rubbing against mine. At first I did nothing, so great was my shock. It wasn't every day good looking young ladies threw themselves so willingly at me! My mind kicked into action and my body followed quickly after as I pushed her away. "Sorry about that too" my mystery girl smirked as she picked up her bike and cycled away down the path. I stood open mouthed as I watched her leave. Just what was that all about I asked myself as I shook my head in confusion. The city sure was different to what I was used to!
I was almost upon the meeting place Rebecca and I had agreed on, when my phone beeped in my pocket. It was a text from Kat. She asked me to come meet her at a bar down town. She said it was urgent, she needed to see me right away. What was wrong? I tried to call her but all I got was the answer machine. "Hey Kat, it's me. I'm on my way sweetheart. I hope everything is okay!" I said trying not to panic. I quickly sent a text to Rebecca telling her I would be a bit later than planned but I would make it soon. Hopefully Kat was just having a mini crisis of some sort and it could easily be sorted. I would have to lie to her again, Rebecca was desperate to put her plan into action tonight! I flagged a taxi down to take me to the bar where Kat was. I didn't even question why she would be in a bar when really she should have been at home, waiting for me to call round as planned. That was my first mistake. My second mistake was stopping to help a guy who had a flat tyre. Next thing I knew I was in the back of a white van with a fuzzy head and a thick rope tied round my ankles and wrists. "If you make a noise I will stuff this dirty rag in your mouth" the guy with the dark hair and soul less eyes informed me. "I don't believe we've been introduced. I'm Quinn Taylor and you, of course, are Embry Call, the stealer of girlfriends." he said as he punched me square in the face. I felt blood run down my throat from my busted nose. I choked and spluttered but quickly turned my head to the side. "Just in case you don't believe I'm serious" Quinn added. So this was Kat's ex boyfriend. He smirked down at my bloody face as he leaped into the driver's seat. As he started the engine, he turned to me with a snake like grin, "If you think I am just going to let Kat walk out of my life and be with you then you are very much mistaken" he hissed at me, his eyes dark and menacing with a hint of madness. We drove along, my head full of fear and my ears full of the song he played over and over and over again.
All our times have come
Here but now they're gone
Seasons don't fear the reaper
Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain
(We can be like they are)
Come on baby
(Don't fear the Reaper)
Baby take my hand
(Don't fear the Reaper)
We'll be able to fly
(Don't fear the Reaper)
Baby I'm your man
