Darkness loomed over her, a heavy burdening cold sticking to her flesh forcing wicked trembles alerting her senses to pry open her eyes. What ever place she had awoken from, now only a blurred cloud of haze remained. Erin's eyelids peeled open further attempting to focus some form of her vision but gazing at dark red walls black drapes and a dark molded ceiling only warranted a sick feeling in the pit of her stomach. It deepened with the first trial to lift her body finding something hindering her movement. Shaking her head hard pushing her sight back with a sheer will she gasped realizing then her body was not only laying down on quite the soft mattress but her arms were pulled apart with wrists shackled with thick leather bands. Erin felt her pulse begin to race as fear crept through her shaking her arms finding no give. Attempting to move her legs she found them free but weak and as heavy as her whole body had felt before. Lifting her head panic thundered to life through every fiber of her being feeling the tightened pull realizing her neck too was shackled...no...collared. The detective slid her gaze around the dark mahogany four post bed struggling further thrashing with all her strength but found it useless. She clenched down with her teeth pressing into a cloth material growling groaning as hyperventilating breaths came ragged with an immense terror.
"She's awake...good." The sultry accented voice of a woman flipped Erin's attention to the side as her head turned quickly taking in the rather seductive yet dangerously stunning woman. Never had the detective seen a beauty quite like this. But the sexual appeal she gave away rolled out of her brain with the realization whom ever this was had captured her. But when? "You look so...confused." The mistress sauntered closer as her captive thrashed further in her restraints. "As strong as you may be and I'm sure you are quite strong no doubt skilled...no amount of force from your body even after such a raging workout will break my bindings." Erin gasped eyes widening. Had she just said...had she been followed to the gym? The woman felt her dark lips curl into another sinister grin taking a seat on the bed a little too close for the detective's comfort. "If you promise not to scream...I'll take the gag off you." Erin wanted to scream she wanted to shout so loud for help beg for someone to save her from this nightmare but it wasn't her play and one thing she had learned in her years, it was when to play by others rules. Well manicured nails scraped the soft material around her head as Erin' studied the soft smooth hands of this stranger flicking her hazel gaze up into a pair of the darkest blue eyes slipping right into the Lady's trap perfectly. That one stare and the proud gun ho crime fighting bad ass her peers had known her to be wavered. It was as if this woman was piercing right through her gripping her very soul, and it haunted Erin it sent a wave of trembles down her spine. "Am I taking it off?" The slight nod brought fingers prying off the gag slipping it from between her lips as the petite woman breathed out shifting her jaw. The mistress sat back up watching, waiting.
"Wha..." Erin fought to find her voice, realizing how dry her throat felt. "Where am I?" 'Start with one question...you can do this Linds...'
"My home of course." The woman purred, easily striking up the answer.
"Wha...what do you want?"
"Mmmm the better response..." Two nails softly scraped her cheek sending Erin trembling again. Who WAS this person? "Before I offer up an answer for you...what do you remember?" Hazel eyes shivered looking away as she cringed narrowing her eyes focusing everything in her mind, but finding a blank slate to a picture she should have had. She remembered the gym her anger...no...rage. She remembered beating the shit out the bag until her knuckles split and bled. She remembered the shower, heading home...a message...what did it say? That had been Monday. What day was it? Was it even day? "Hmmm...a club?" Erin turned her head finding her expression shaken blank,eyes warranting confusion.
"What...day..." She swallowed down the bile in her throat. "Club?" The look on her captor's face brought panic through her. She was smiling with such an ill intent.
"Surely for a detective, you don't seem to be gathering much information from this do you? Let me fill in the blanks for you." Another scrape of nails along her cheek brought Erin pressing the back of her head as far into the bed as she could. "You came to the rescue of a certain kitten of mine...came to my club...two...nights...ago." Erin's head spun her thoughts exploded with riddles. She'd been out for TWO DAYS? A hand soft of touch but firm of grip clenched her jaw keeping her head locked in place as eyes slid into the dark blue once more. "Your body took well to my concoction." The detective felt her chest pounding her pulse racing the fear clawing further into her body. She had been drugged.
"What...did you...do to...me..." The women let out the most ominous laughter leaving Erin chilled to the bone.
"You and your squad have been interrupting my affairs my dear and it seemed that a more fitting, PERSONAL touch was appropriate for the situation." The woman lifted a phone setting it on the shelf next to the bed placing it on a small holder flicking the camera on zooming in positioning it pressing record. "You have been very busy detective...all of you issuing your destruction, tearing down my empires my...businesses. It's disturbing my clients, it's forcing them to put their investments elsewhere." Erin didn't like where this was going, she felt her stomach dropping into a rock pile and as a glazed glass red cylinder was lifted up placed on the pedestal by the nightstand her eyes widened further. The woman lifted up the hose and oxygen style mask into her line of sight sending the detective into a thrashing frenzy. She had to get free and now! "So I'm going to...redirect the attention of your fellow companions..." Turning the valve on attached to the side she dropped a small set of fire lit nubbed spheres into the bottle closing the cap. Erin froze for a moment watching the smoke swirl in the cylinder almost entranced by it until survival rippled through her and she thrashed once more, aggressively violently tugging as hard as she could on the restraints holding her arms down.
"N...n...no...no...no...no...p...please...d...don't..." She stammered, shaking with cold deathly tremors yanking at the shackles on her wrists uncaring how much they dug into her skin, how much it hurt. She had to escape...before...no more drugs...not that life again. Erin watched in horror as this evil woman moved her hand holding the mask closer to her head. "No...NO! DON'T! You CANT! NO!" Her shouts her screams the lash of her head the struggle came to a brutal end as her hair was grabbed roughly locking her in place as the mask was placed over her mouth and nose and eyes widened in terror clenching her jaw forcing herself to quit breathing entirely.
"Your team stopped the distribution of my new line...took away the one massive production I had...broke so many of my toys..." Keeping the mask over Erin's face until she couldn't help but let out a gasp for air the mistress watched as her thrashing lessened her struggle weakened and hazel eyes started to unbalance. "So I'm going to create new ones...and you my dear...try as you might to escape your dark past...will harbor a taste for the darkness once more..." Leaning down dark blue eyes lit up with an ominous victory as the last of the detectives fight left her own. "I made this batch especially for you...you will grow to love it sweet kitten..." The lady grinned with a rich desire waiting until the last of her mixture filled her captive's pores licking her lips as Erin's body arched writhed slowly achingly lifting the mask from her face dropping it to the floor reaching up unlatching both of the woman's wrists clasping a hand in the detective's hair turning her head to the side bringing her own down running her lips teasingly over the pulse of her captive's throat. "I knew you would enjoy it...I will own every part of you...your mind...your body...until everything else fades away..." Erin sunk into the hot trail of lips over her nails that scraped along the lines of her chest as her warmed glazed eyes rolled back arching moaning lost to the world this mistress had drown her in feeling a whole new kind of heat rising within her surrendering to everything the darkness could offer. Little did she know how soon those in her life would sit helpless watching paralyzed by the performance the lady intended to deliver...in spades...
