Murder in the Forest, Chapter 37

The night went well for Blacklaws and Seaver, who ate fresh salmon fillets and broccoli with brown rice for supper and then got to know one another better. In fact, they got to know one another so well that Ashley was soon screaming softly in orgasm, and this was repeated three times that evening before they slept, entwined happily in one another's arms. For others in the case, on both sides of the law, the situation was less blissful.

Reid asked Morgan if he'd talked with Garcia after they'd been scolded. "You nearly cost her her job," he reminded.

Morgan was irritated, but replied that he had called her and was about to do so again before he retired for the night. They talked perfunctorily, but Reid soon realized that Morgan wanted his space and the freedom to call Garcia without an audience and excused himself.

He wandered over to Jennifer Jareau's room where they laughed about Seaver's attraction to the local deputy. "He is a hot guy," Jareau noted. She was amused by Reid's embarrassment.

But she soon wanted to call her husband and son, and Reid was the odd man out once more, as Rossi and Hotchner were engrossed in their own private session, being longtime friends whose personalities were the most compatible among the male agents. They tolerated Reid politely, but he soon realized that he was interfering in their conversation and went to his room and watched a program on whether space aliens had built the Egyptian pyramids and much else in ancient civilizations. He decided that the program seemed plausible, but was probably incorrect. That channel's history programs tended to be deeply flawed.

Bamka called his partner and they used 'burner' phones to discuss the situation. They'd procured several of the phones in case they ever had reason to suspect that their communications were monitored. Bamka was uneasy, but Mason convinced him that the FBI agents were probably just in his store to buy supplies they might need.

"Hell, if you were a suspect, they'd have hauled you in to interrogate," explained Mason. "They're desperate to find those girls, and if they thought we were involved, they'd be all over us and checking my properties. Look, I'm going up there tonight and feed the girls and use them, Melissa, at least. May do her and then screw the Cassidy broad, too. They both flat turn me on. Man, we have two of the finest babes in the world there, and I don't think we should panic and dispose of them unless it looks more like we're definitely under surveillance. You want to come? You especially like Courtney, and she's a fine piece of tail. She's probably even hot for you to take her out of her cell and do her. She's been responding really well lately. We couldn't buy better pussy anywhere than what we've got, and I mean to enjoy them while we can. Come make Courtney dance for you. You'll feel better. We just have to be sure that we aren't being followed, but I doubt that we will be."

Bamka thought and recalled that he had a meeting that evening with a sales rep for some merchandise he needed. "I need to keep that appointment, but I want to go up there tomorrow and feed them again. I'll do Courtney then. When are you going to be there? It's best if we're both there when we let them out of their cages. Even with them being restrained, we need to be careful with them. If we take them for granted, they may seize any chance they see to cause trouble. "

Mason basically agreed, but added that he felt that both girls were discouraged and were compliant. "I think they'd do anything to stay alive and they're even enjoying the effect they have on us. That little slut Melissa is vain. Hell, she wants to be an actress. She gets off on knowing how much she appeals to us. She plays to the role some. I think she's even moving better when she walks and when she sees me looking at her. And Courtney isn't far behind. She even looked a little smug when she gave me that last blow job. She's learned some cool tongue tricks and she knows the way that affects me. Well, I'll go fuck them tonight, and you come up tomorrow. Just don't get careless when you're alone with them and don't let both out at once. If you tether a girl outside to get some sun, blindfold her. I don't want them recognizing the details of the place, although all they can see is basically forest. And be damned sure to wear your mask unless they're blindfolded. We're probably going to kill them eventually unless we really do get that ransom, but if some weird quirk happens and the cops find them first, they can't know our faces. And I think our being masked scares and intrigues them. "

"Okay, "agreed Bamka. "I'll see you tomorrow, Terry. Stay cool and unlax, dude. We've got a handle on this."

And they rang off and each man proceeded to his goals, with Mason stopping off at a grocer on his way to the hideout. He chuckled as he saw the collars and leashes in the pet department of the store, and he bought a pink set that he especially wanted to see Melissa wear. She was sure a better pet than any dog! He liked leading her on a leash, telling her to walk sexily and submissively. And she was getting damned good at that. He hoped that they wouldn't need to kill the women anytime soon. Holding them was even more fun than he'd hoped for when they took them.
