Chapter 9
Jason's POV
Abigail was still fast asleep, John slept too in the chair beside her. Many many things had changed in what I assumed was a short amount of time, I am begging to consider the option that I was wrong. After seeing Abigail's daughter for myself it was hard to ever imagine her dead. I knew that was what Angelica had planned. John said that Abigail mumbled to him that Montgomery was behind it somehow. Since both of them were asleep I decided to do something that I knew I would no doubt regret later on. Dressing warmly, I decided to find Angelica and see what information she could remember about Abigail. I had to be tactful though, I didn't want to die or end up being her slave again.
Walking through the streets I could see a few beggars laying in the street trying to keep warm. I had a mission to focus on. One I knew would more than likely not end well. Knocking on Angelica's door, it didn't take but a moment for her to open the door with a sadistic smile on her face. Dressed in all black, her hair well done as though she were expecting me. Damn, I knew this wouldn't end well. Angelica grabbed me and pulled me inside of the house. She threw me into a chair and slammed the door shut, locking it quickly.
"Finally, you have returned to your true love and mistress, tell me why you haven't obeyed me and I may spare your life." Angelica questioned as she walked up to me with fire in her eyes.
"I have done all I can to keep our secret just that, a secret my dear." I lie to her as I try to keep my face straight.
"I awoke only a few days ago and I have been longing for your touch, my dear kind, obeying and loving doctor." She said grabbing my hand and leading me up the stairs.
I followed her, as though I had no choice. My body was moving on it's own. She was controlling me, and I knew no way to break her control over me. We arrived in her bed chambers and she pushed me down on the bed. Then she took each of my arms and bound them to the head board. Then she did the same to my feet on the foot board.
"Wait here patiently so I can prepare myself for your true awakening." She grinned as she slipped behind the changing screen.
I had no idea what would happen to me, all I knew was that this was a mistake and I never should have come here. All I wanted to do was find out if she remembered everything that John and Abigail said that she shouldn't remember. As much as I hated it, a part of me was still attracted to Angelica and when she came to me with only a sheer robe on I was losing control fast.
She sat on the bed and played with my hair and she looked down into my eyes. This was not what I was expecting.
"You should have never disobeyed me, I will use you though, your blood will become mine and the power I gave you will be restore to me." She told me as she sat on top of me.
Reaching into her rob, I saw her grab something small and sharp. She had a dagger and for some reason I felt as though she had done this to me before. Taking the dagger she cut my shirt and pants from my body. I was almost completely naked as she lifted the dagger high above her head. This was it, this is how I would die. I would never see Abigail again.
"Goodbye Doctor, you were fun while you lasted." She chuckled as she looked down at me.
"No! I don't want to die!" I yell at her only making her laugh more.
"That's not your choice." She fake pouts.
I watch as the blade comes down but then a pair of boots block my vision and kick Angelica off me. Landing beside the fireplace, Angelica groaned as the person landed and looked right at her. Turning to see who the heck just saved me I was shocked to see Diana standing there. Uniform and all but this time Diana held a gun out and its target was Angelica. I knew that wasn't what we needed.
"How the hell are you?!" Angelica yelled as she tried to stand but the gun went off and a strange object then struck Angelica's neck.
Angelica pulled the dart out of her neck but it was too late, the affects were already taking place. She fell to the ground right before us. Putting the gun back in it's holster. Diana then turned to look at me and raised her eye brow at no doubt my appearance. She walked up to me and crossed her arms over her chest.
"What do you think you were doing?" she questioned me as she held my gaze.
"I wanted to find out if Abigail had her old memories of what happened the first time your mom was here...we never got to that...this went bad very quickly." I admit as I turn my head and groan.
"You being tied to a bed would probably be the first clue." Diana chuckles as she takes out and knife and sets me free.
"Thank you." I rub my wrists and I look over at her.
"You did a dumb thing tonight, she is more powerful than you think. I'm just happy and knock out dart did the trick. Do me a favor. Do your job and just be the doctor. Let my mom do this work, ok? I don't have time to come save you every three hours." She sighs as she hands me a robe.
"I agree, I did not use my best judgement." I nod as we both walk downstairs and out of the house.
Diana walks with me back to my home where John and Abigail still slept. Since she was hear I did want to ask her a question or two. That didn't mean that she would answer them though, she could just turn around and disappear just like she had done before.
"Please let me ask you just 5 questions, it will easy my curious mind." I ask her as we walk into my home.
"Three, I don't have time to explain more than that." She sighs as she leans against the wall.
"Fine, three. Alright first...do you know who your father is?"
"Yes."
That was all she replied, she did answer my question but she did not say who her father was...she was still keeping to her side of the deal so I continued with my other questions. I only had two left so I had better make them good.
"In your time...is your mother dead?" I ask unsure what reaction I will get.
"No, not yet at least, I am here to prevent that." She retorts to me with a bit of an edge to her voice.
"Alright, I think I will save my last question for another time. Thank you for all you did Diana." I tell her as she nods and with one touch of her watch she disappears.
"Why do you want to ask her questions?" a very familiar voice questions from the stairs.
Turning back to the stairs, there stands Abigail in a long white night gown. She didn't look mad, in fact she just looked curious. Instead of answering her, I went right to her and kissed her deeply. Holding us against the wall I just wanted a moment alone with her and since John was around all of the time it was very hard to do so. Surprising me, she didn't fight me, she did kiss me back and held me close to her.
"Abigail." I speak softly as I pull away and look down into her eyes. "You are best thing in my life that I never knew I needed. No matter how short our time is together, I just want you to know I am always with you."
Blinking her eyes, I saw a tear escape her eye as she leaned in and hugged me. Hugging her back, I wanted her to know that she was safe with me and I would do anything in the world to make sure that she was taken care of. Even if that did mean giving up not only my life with her, but my life all together.
"Jason, please promise me, you will be here every morning I wake up here?" Abigail questioned.
Looking down at her, I kissed her forehead and nodded.
"Always."
John's POV
Waking from my nap I stretched and looked around the room. Abigail wasn't in her bed, quickly going to the door I could see Abigail was with the doctor, hugging him. It made sense, they were husband and wife after all. Scratching the back of my head I turn to the window and there stands yet another female looking at me very unimpressed. Diana leaned against the window looking right at me.
"He almost died tonight." She spoke softly but I could hear the venom in her voice.
"Jason did? What did he do?" I question as I walk over to her.
"He went to Angelica's house to try and get information. I saved him since he was almost naked, tied to the bed and about to be sacrificed...again." Diana sighed as she looked out the window. "This is becoming impossible for any mission to be accomplished."
"He's just worried about her, he is married to her..." I try to side with Jason but Diana rolls her eyes and shakes her head.
"He's not important in the long run, only you and mom are and I am starting to see him cause more problems than anything." She says but once she realizes what she says she covers her mouth. "Oops."
"I am going to pretend I didn't hear that, I get what your saying. I will figure out a way to keep him busy. You better go before someone else sees you." I barely manage to say as I turn to where she was to see that she was already gone.
Jason isn't important in the long run...but somehow I was? How would I be important? Walking to the stairs I see they had separated and Jason was only in a robe, Diana really wasn't kidding. Walking past me Jason just clears his throat.
"I saw her...I saw my daughter and she was beautiful." Abigail grins as she walks up to me.
"She also saved the doctors life last night." I tell Abigail the whole story and she looks at me conflicted.
"She said that? Jason isn't important in the long run but you are...that is odd." She admitted but Jason came out to us all dressed and ready for the day. "Where are you going?"
"To do my job, I am the doctor and for now that is all I can do. Good luck and if you need me you know where to find me." Jason says as he kisses Abigail's cheek and then walks out of the house.
Whatever the girls said to him...it appeared to work. He was out of the way, at least for the moment. I still needed to tell Abigail our plan. After doing so she didn't look so confused anymore.
"Let's do it, expose them like last time. Follow to their graves and if they do get up and bullet to the head will ensure that they stay in the ground."
Would this end it though? Would things go back to how they were before?
