As soon as the car came to a halt, James pushed open the car door and helped Sarah out of the car after he had gotten out himself. He shut the door and waved the driver goodbye.
Standing on the pavement in front of the Grande Hotel where they had been lodged for the past couple of weeks as guests in the double apartment on the fourteenth floor.
He helped Sarah stand straight, as the cool air hit her face, she regained some consciousness and was able to walk slightly carrying and pushing her weight around.
James held her up by the waist so they could maintain a casual posture as they walked into the hotel lobby. He placed her on a sofa in the waiting area of the reception while he went to retrieve their key.
The receptionist stared from him to the lady he had just put down whose clothes were partially ripped even though he had buttoned up his coat in her to give her a certain level of decency, her ripped strap could still be seen through the coat.
"Sorry about that, she had too much to drink and we were chased by a dog" James said trying to put on a smile even though the boldness of his eyes dared her to question him further. She took the hint and nodded.
The receptionist pulled out a card after confirming their information and the fact that things had been put in place in the room while they were away.
"The maid clocked out this evening, so the apartment is ready for use, have a wonderful stay Sir" she replied and handed him the key card he was looking for.
He took the card and returned to where he had left Sarah. She had left the chair and draped herself across the center table admiring the fish which swam inside the dish bowl. This made James almost laugh at her, but he knew she had no idea what she was doing at the time.
So, helped her up and took her to where the elevator was. They had barely gotten to the elevator when she tried to walk and pull her own weight but ended up stumbling in front of him.
He held her up with one hand to her back and he used the other hand to touch the elevator button which brought it to open and they got inside.
While inside the elevator, Sarah found it quite difficult to keep her feet steady or stable. She could not figure out which was her left or right but she could figure she had legs. She giggled to herself as pulled her up.
He had realized how silly she felt but he pressed fourteen which was where their room or apartment rather was situated.
He held the key card I'm his mouth as he helped Sarah up. He unlocked the door using the key card with much difficulty, and then he pushed it open. Sarah ran from his hold and nearly stumbled on a stool that had stood in the way between her and the rest of the sitting room.
She reached out and grabbed the stool to lift herself up again but she only toppled back and fell off again, leaving the stool the way it had been after she fell.
James quickly shut the door and reached out to help her, he knew the drug was still affecting her and he wished he could have just put her in the shower and let the water wash away the effect of the drug. Instead, he lifted her and helped her walk as gently as possible to the room where he was sure she would get to sleep soundly on the bed.
He took off the coat he had used to cover her frame because she was beginning to sweat and the heater which was within the house had begun to bubble more heat.
He reached out to grab her handbag and put it in a safe place but was distracted by the sound of more toppling and falling.
Thomas rushed over to her side and picked her up. He placed her on the bed and when he reached out to move the pillows so that she could be comfortable even more, his elbow slight grazed over her chest and she looked.up.at him with a widened consciousness.
Her reaction had been expected, but he did not expect the look in her eyes after the incident. Sarah began to feel a great situation around the middle of her thighs. She could not control how she felt because the drugs Peter Causey had given her was that strong.
She would have allowed Peter to get through with her but, she did not like him at all, but James...James felt a bit different.
She reached out to grab his hand as soon as he turned his gaze from hers. James felt a need to indulge her, but he instinctively remembered what had happened the last time they both slept together when she called out Fred's name.
He shook his head at her and said, "No, you are just not yourself and I am not going to take advantage of you" he said to her but she shook her head disagreeing with him, and said, "I never said you took advantage of me" she whispered.
"You did, the last time. Do you even know who you are touching?" He asked rubbing his hand over his face as exhaustion took over him
She nodded her head and said "Yes, thank you for saving my life, James. I don't know what I would have done if you had not come at the nick of time that you did." She replied.
He watched her again as her eyes began to water with need. He knew the drugs had to be a strong drug which stimulated one so much it looked like they needed the person who was doing the deed with them, when it was just hormones in place playing out their role.
Sarah tugged on his shirt as she used his hand to lift herself. "I want you James Johnson," she said to him in a whisper.
Unable to resist the doleful look in her eyes and the way he made her feel, James obliged and made love to her and this time it was only his name she moaned out.

James went to his car and pulled out his box of rifles and set them on his lap."What are you doing?" The General asked him. James continued to rack through his weapons, pulling out a knife, a gun and a couple of other things."Where's the Captain?" James asked him. Suddenly realizing. "What? I don't know. Wasn't he inside the hall?" The General replied.James cocked his gun and handed it to the General. " He wasn't." James replied. His eyes remained pinned across the street.The charity event was probably still goin on."Listen. I have a strong feeling he is a part of this. When you find him, put a bullet in his shoulder for me. Some officers are back at the barracks. Stefan is one of them.“"The Lieutenant? You made a lieutenant stay back, James?" The General asles looking at him surprise."That is the least of our worries. Call him, call the cops too. Get men on the roofs. These bastards are amateurs anyway." He referred to the guards."What do you mean?" The General asked." They

"Mr. Rizzo, what's going on?" Her voice trembled. Her heart took on a sudden tempo that made her feel something was wrong."It is nothing, Miss Brown. They are friends, don't worry." As soon as he said that, one of the men walked up to her and hit her across the face.James shuddered in his seat. It hit him strongly like a sixth sense. His eyes began to scan the room for Sarah. He was sure he had seen her there a couple of moments ago."It is an honour to be gathered here. One of the greatest events is raising leaders," the president's speech continued."What is it, Mr. Johnson? Is everything okay?" The official beside him asked."Have you seen my wife? She is supposed to be seated there. She was, but, she is no longer there." James replied."I haven't seen her. But I will ask the other officials if you want." The woman offered."Please do." James replied, but that was not enough. He still felt a strange feeling beneath his chest. He knew something wasn't right.Suddenly, his phone be

The doorbell dinged, drawing the attention of the maid. She unlocked the door and took the uniform from the drycleaner.James was upstairs getting changed, while Sarah sat at her dressing table putting on her make up. His designed uniform had arrived, and he took it from the maid at the door.He turned to Sarah as soon as he was done putting on his clothes. They had not spoken since their last argument.Sarah noticed his struggle with a button. Everything accused her of what she was about to do. The silence between her screamed at her too.So, she got up from her dressing stool and walked up to him. She helped him pin the badges he had gotten before on his new uniform."I have to admit, you do look handsome in this uniform." She said with a smile.James looked into her eyes, but did not smile. He just stared, his eyes on hersnwere apologetic. And just like that, they both silently agreed that it was cool.He pressed his lips to hers, and kissed her. "I love you." He murmured against h

"You say that as if I am under your control or something!" Sarah said, raisin her voice at him."Control? Now you think I am trying to control you? Where do you get these ideas from??" James asked, looking at her in amazement."This is not about where I get my ideas from. It is if those ideas are true or not. James, I need this charity event. It is going to be good for my business and regaining my family's name and financial freedom.""And what if it is just a trap? You said it yourself, something doesn't add up about them. What they are doing does not seem right, or does it?" "I think I already clarified that doubt. Everything is fine, and with the massive turn up for the event, I will have more than hundreds of people making upfront payments to me, just so that I can handle their events." "And then? And then what, Sarah? What next?" James asked her."What do you mean by that? It is all I really need!" She replied angrily."You are not going for that event. And if I have to lock yo

"I know, but this, is exactly what it seems, General." James replied."The Inauguration ceremony is two days from now on, we cannot have any more problems. Sort out the security issues before anymore problems ensue." The General murmured."Yes General." James replied.Although he knew who the man had been referring to when he said Causey was working with someone who had a daughter, he still needed palpable evidence.***Sarah sat back in her office chair, savouring the light of the afternoon, as the knock sounded on her door."Come in!" She called out.The door opened and the woman who was dressed in an emerald green suit, walked in. Her eyes scouring the room in admiration."These are beautiful sets of furnitures. How else can one explain the idea of class, luxury and a gracious ambience if not this office?" The Editorial representative of Forbes whom she had met at the rehearsal for the Charity event complimented her."Thank you so much, Miss Brianne." Sarah smiled."I must say that

"Thank you for the advice. Now, don't ever call me up if it isn't something to do with you and my daughter getting a divorce." Mrs Brown said in a snide manner.Without waiting for a response, she got up and walked out of the restaurant. Sarah woke up that morning to find James gone. It was completely unlike him to just leave without speaking to her or at least letting her know he was leaving.Her phone had already been loaded with tons of messages concerning the charity event. Three people had already reached out to her organization to inform her they would be needing her services the next month."My goodness, basically every week in August is booked! I told you this would be a huge opportunity turn around for you." Viola said to Sarah when they met each other later that day."I couldn't agree more. Just one connect. I can't believe I haven't even done the interview yet and six people have already messaged me to handle their event security and organization.""In no time I would have
