A Soldier's Love (closed)

[Ravenloft]

"Oh, Dani, look at you, you did it, darlin! You came with me!" He sat up and gently touched her belly, secretly hoping that she would become pregnant.

 

[Asa]

She smiled to him.

So now what should we do? We need to keep going we have to stay away from him.

 

[Ravenloft]

Jack smiled back, he didn't want to withdraw from her just yet, it felt so good to just linger for a moment. You're right, we need to get out of here... he's no doubt got people looking for us..." he finally pulled away, and got up to get dressed. He couldn't stop looking at her though. "We can make it to the cabin by tonight. We can start making plans and reaching out to people who can help us once we get there. I have a buddy working on tying Robert to the drivers death."

 

[Asa]

She bit her lip scared that he could see all the scars as brutally as they still looked to her. Robert had always said that they would insure no one would want her for long if ever.

Okay..

 

[Ravenloft]

"Dani..." Jack finally noticed the scars. He sunk back down Into bed with her, placing a gentle hand on her belly. "What did that monster do to you?" His voice was soft with concern,

 

[Asa]

The scars were from different times with Robert many were well faded but she saw them harsher than they were. She pointed to a few on her that to her still looked like they just happened and told him about them and how Robert would always tell her when he would see them again that no one would want such a scarred up whore for long.

Here on my neck and wrists... When the driver had tried to help me get away... Robert's reminder that I was his was barbwire laced leather restraints on me while he...

 

[Ravenloft]

Angry tears welled up in Jacks eyes as Dani explained her scars to him. "Stop! ...please stop. You don't have to relive these horrors Dani. ...unless it helps you get past them. I'm never going to let you get hurt like this again. You've been through hell, and I respect that, but you're out now... you're safe... even loved, by me. And he was wrong, these marks... they don't make you a whore... no, you're a survivor. Tough as nails. Now, come on, we gotta go." He pulled her close and kissed her deeply. "God damn, I love you, Dani!" He whispered, pulling her to her feet.

 

[Asa]

She curled into the kiss.

I... I just... I guess I just needed to tell you... Sorry.

Getting to her feet she hurried to get ready in silence. She didn't know if telling him was a good idea or not any more.

 

[Ravenloft]

"Don't be sorry, it's okay. Listen, if it helps you get the poison out, please, never be afraid to tell me anything. I will understand. I'm sorry, I should have let you talk. It's just... I just hate Robert so much right now for what he did to you. I... I want to... kill him. I swear, if he ever, ever touches you again, I will. But I want you, no, I need you to know, I love you Dani, it doesn't matter what you've been through, what he's done to you, I want you, all of you."

 

[Asa]

She listened and nodded.

I... I don't know... I am just scared he will find us.

 

[Ravenloft]

"If he does, I'll fuck him up. You need to relax. He can't hurt you any more."

 

[Asa]

She tried to smile nodding...

Okay let's go. How will we get supplies? Where?

 

[Ravenloft]

"The cabin is already stocked with everything we need, trust me, once we get there, Roberts going to need an army to take us down, if he can ever even find us." Jack smiled. "Sometimes it pays to have survivalist nuts as friends."

 

[Asa]

Okay but won't we need more clothes than just what we are wearing?

She heard survivalist but and worried about this cabin being something out of a horror movie.

 

[Ravenloft]

"Sure, but we can get some later, unless you want to risk shopping now?" He saw the look of uncertainty she got when he mentioned the survivalists and chuckled. "Oh, they're not weird or anything... well... they're weird, but not crazy. Besides, they won't even be there. Unless it looks like I need backup, or something."

 

[Asa]

She nodded and once she was ready she looked to him feeling a little safer than usual but still she was scared that they would open the door and find Robert on the other side.

 

[Ravenloft]

Jack noticed the fear in Dani's eyes, he felt it too, that feeling like they were being watched. He didn't think it was Robert, but he had a bad feeling about heading out. "Listen, I'm going to go check things out, outside, make sure no one tracked us here. You stay inside, I'll come back for you once I'm sure the coast is clear, got it?"

 

[Asa]

She nodded her head and curled up in the chair. She was more worried now that he seemed to be concerned too. She turned on the TV only to see Robert on the screen.

Jack... Jack

She just stared in disbelief as Robert was on the screen "pleading" for his brother to return his wife and not hurt her.

 

[Ravenloft]

"What?" He turned to look and instantly deflated at what he saw. "Well... shit..." the fucker was smart, setting him up to look like the bad guy. "This complicates things... we need to act fast. If I can get a reporter to listen to us, I think we can blow this wide open. Come on, we need to make a run for it! There's no doubt someone's going to call the cops on us now. Speed is our only chance now. Speed and stealth." He snatched her up and kissed her deeply. "Be cool." He whispered to her, guiding her to the door. "Act casual, don't freak out of someone tries to stop us. We're getting out of here. Now." He opened the door and started walking to their vehicle as calmly aso he could manage.

 

[Asa]

She was terrified but did what she could to stay calm as they walked to the car. She curled in close to Jack and whispered.

What about the car... It is one of his cars. I am sure he will be looking for the car.

 

[Ravenloft]

"We'll have to ditch it." He agreed, taking a sharp turn toward someone else's car as they pulled in. "Keep your cool darlin, I'm about to do something crazy." He warned her as road worn business man climbed out of the car. "Excuse me..." jack grabbed the man's tie and yanked him down, giving him a sharp chop to the throat with the blade of his hand. "Sorry... don't get up." He guided the guy down so he didn't get hurt any more than he had to. "Get in!" He shouted to Dani, twisting the man's wrist back to take his keys. It was all a blur of action as he slipped into the drivers seat and started the engine, the guy holding his throat and choking for breath. "Come on! He'll be okay! Come on!"

 

[Asa]

She was scared as she moved to get in the car looking to Jack.

Won't that cause more troubles?

 

[Ravenloft]

"Yes. No choice though. Gotta move!" He gunned the engine and put it in reverse, just missing the guy as he peeled out and put it back in drive. They were out of there and on the road in seconds. "Okay, Roberts stepped up his game, so am I. We just need to get you to the cabin, once you're safe, we can figure out what to do next. I'd like to really stick it to him. But it means really blowing things wide open... I don't think you're going to like it, but what if we give a copy of the video he took to the media? Yeah, it's disgusting and horrible, but it proves he's not the good guy here..."

 

[Asa]

She was horrified at his idea. Everything was spiraling deeper into this insane nightmare that she was convinced would never end. She finally just broke down sobbing.

Jack I can't do this any more I can't deal with any more.

 

[Ravenloft]

"You've got to deal, you have to Dani!" He looked over at herm0, feeling like sit for suggesting she air her rape on tv. It was anot idea born out of desperation. "You can't give up now, if you do and you go back to him, you'll never know happiness! Look, all I need to do is get you to safety, get you some place where you can tell the world your side of the story. Once it's clear that you're safe and Roberts the real villain in all of this... you can heal. I'll do whatever it takes to get you there! Just hold on a while longer. Please?"
