Chapter 19
Sin
31 weeks
I see Old Ben as he plays his saxophone on the corner. He stops playing as soon as he sees me, waving me over. I park on the street, hop out of my Jeep, and head over to him. I haven’t seen him in a bit and Savvy was starting to get worried about him.
The sun is just starting to peak over the skyline and brighten the dull fog of the cool morning.
“Hey Ben, Savvy has missed getting to hear you play every day.” I say as I get closer to him, putting a few hundred-dollar bills in his hand as I shake it. Ben is one of my most trusted informants and friends.
“I was hoping I would catch you this morning. I know you have been looking for the guy who hurt your wife. I’ve been hearing some awful sounds coming from this building, third floor. Rudy said it’s coming from the fourth room on the right. I’ve noticed since last night a big guy at the windows, looking at Miss Savvy every time she comes out on the balcony. He kind of looks like you a bit. I just came back after a few days in Baton Rouge, or I may have seen him sooner. I’m sorry for that, but it couldn’t be helped. He is hurting someone up there. I thought it was best you took care of it rather than attracting attention from the cops.” He doesn’t let go of my hand as he looks up to the third-floor windows .
“I’ll take care of it, Ben, thank you! You have no idea how much you just helped me and Savvy!” I can’t help but assume it’s Max, and he has been right here the whole time!
I hear a muffled scream followed by the sound of breaking glass, and know he is right. I take my phone out of my back pocket and call Joe.
“Hey buddy, we got a douche bag in an apartment across the street hurting a girl. Apparently, he has been watching my wife when she goes on the balcony, thought you might want to come and help me take care of him.” I let him know who it might be without saying any names.
“Yeah, I’ll get the guys and be right there. Wait for us though! We have plenty of backup man.”
“Don’t take too long then!” I practically growl as I end the call, putting my phone back in my pocket as I turn back to Ben.
“You might want to go take a coffee break for a little bit. Come over for dinner tomorrow night, I know Savvy will want to thank you personally!”
“Thank you Sin, I always enjoy my conversations with Miss Savvy. She is a very special young woman.” He pats my shoulder before he starts playing his saxophone again as he walks down the sidewalk, turning the corner, his music moving farther away.
I hear another crashing sound and can’t believe no one has called the cops yet. I look over to the gate across the street as Joe, Jasper, Charlie, and five guards for the Saints file out running across the street towards me.
“Third floor, unknown female, I want him alive and taken to the caves immediately. I don’t give a fuck who sees, the quarter needs to know we will not tolerate this shit, anymore!” I yell as I make my way into the apartment building. We all file up the stairs to the third floor, I pull my gun out from my back waistband as I lead our way to the fourth room on the right, praying Ben’s informant, Rudy, was right. I hear a crash and another muffled scream! I don’t wait, I crash into the door making it hit the wall behind it, holding my gun out ready to shoot him if I have to, however, not prepared for what I just walked into!
“Jesus Christ! Shelby!” Joe shouts and runs over to the very naked woman with a ball gag in in her mouth, buckled with a lock at the back of her head, standing over a very knocked out man on the floor, who I pray is Max. She has a large metal lamp in her hands raised above her head, ready to strike again! Joe grabs the comforter, wrapping her up in it, as Jasper takes the lamp from her, setting it down slowly. Charlie gets the key from the guy’s pockets and tosses them to Joe, who fumbles with the key, finally getting it in the lock, turning it quickly as he unlocks her gag, removing it! She whimpers a little, opening and closing her mouth several times, licking her lips, but not able to say anything. She seems to finally snap out of it when Joe turns her body to face him and starts talking to her.
“Your safe baby, you’re safe now, I’ve got you! I was so worried when you didn’t answer me the last couple of days. I’m here, I’m here!” He says softly cupping Shelbys face as he forces her to look up at him. She finally blinks as tears stream down her cheeks, “Joe!” She cries as he pulls her close. He picks her up bridal style, carrying her past us.
“You guys got this asshole! I’m taking her home with me!” Joe growls out, moving past us without stopping for an answer, and is out the door before we can even respond.
The guards are securing the guy’s hands behind his back with zip ties when he starts to come to, moaning slightly.
“Pick this piece of shit up!” Two guards follow the order and I finally get to look into the dull grey eyes of the reason my wife is broken! Blood runs down the side of his head, dripping on the floor. His eyes go wide for a moment, but his face morphs into a sinister smile, showing off his blood covered teeth, “My big brother, always the hero, Fuck you! Is Savvy missing me yet?” He chuckles lightly with a smile that sends a rage I have never felt through me. I can’t believe the piece of shit, has the balls, to taunt me!
“Good for Shelby, she kicked your ass just like my wife did, and they will get to do it over, and over again! Just know you will suffer, along with your cunt of a mother! You will be reunited soon little bro!” I growl, before I hit him once, only once, because if I let myself kill him before Savvy gets her revenge, I’ll never forgive myself. I hear the cracking sound of his jaw breaking before his head snaps to the side, then hangs limp.
“Get him out of here before I go ahead and kill him just because I can! Shelby gets the offering by the way, she caught him!” I say as the guards’ grumble, carrying the bastard out as directed, leaving me, Jasper, and Charlie to clean up the mess, knowing they won’t be getting paid anything extra.
“Did you know about Joe and Shelby?” Charlie asks. We both look to Jasper since they seem to be the closest lately.
“No, but he has seemed better this last week. She was on the list the Saints gave him. She was supposed to be some big shot architects covenant, but he died a week before their wedding. Joe did seem to be a little more upbeat with her name being on the list. I think he liked her when we met her last year planning your proposal, but was with Jill, and was happy back then. I’m happy for him, he deserves to have some happiness in his life.” Jasper replies, answering what he can.
“Me too, but isn’t that a bit fast? He was devastated after what happened with Jill.” Charlie asks, making a good point.
“I don’t think it’s fast at all, but I moved so fast with Savvy, that I’m probably not the right person to say right or wrong. It shouldn’t matter as long as they are happy! Fuck this feels good, to know we have the son of a bitch and the girls is safe! Our buddy may have finally found love!” I can’t help the adrenaline rush I have of pure joy!
“Hey, are we looking for anything specific? I found all of Shelbys things and Max’s phone. Anything else we need to take?” Jasper asks.
“A leather journal, Savvy has been dying to get it back, and I was hoping it would be here!” I reply as I continue to sift through the dip shits bags. I know she will be ecstatic that Max has been caught, but to be able to give her that journal! It might be the missing piece to help her get out of the darkness and fully come back to me.
“This what you’re looking for? It was in a drawer with the bible!” Jasper comes out of the small kitchen holding up a leather-bound journal with leather strings wrapped around it and tied, with the initials S D embossed on the front, shaking his head.
I rush over to him, dropping the duffle bag full of sex toys on the floor, “It looks like what Savvy described! Thank you! Let’s grab everything we can. Just put it in the duffle bags and let’s get the hell out of here!”
I move to the closet, opening it to see three more large black duffle bags up on the top shelf. I pull them down and realize they are already full. I unzip one, seeing nothing but stacks of hundred-dollar bills, same with the second, but the third is full of letters, several journals, and pictures of Lottie, Savvy, MJ, and another young woman I have never seen before. She has piercing green eyes and light brown curly hair. Shaking my head, I close all the bags and help Charlie finish packing up everything that could be useful.
When we get back home and stash everything in my office for us to go through later. I decide to take a shower in my office bathroom before heading straight to our bedroom. I have Savvy’s journal in hand, excited to be able to give her this, but am stopped at the library. The girls are all sitting on the couches with coffee cups in their hands, looking very serious.
I rush in when Savvy’s eyes meet mine, placing what I hope is her journal on her lap. Her eyes go wide as tears well up, “So it’s true? He really is down there? He hurt Shelby! No one would let me go down until you got back, I need to see him with my own eyes!” She rants, giving me a pleading look.
“If that is what you need, angel. Cami, tell the guys to meet us in the caves in fifteen minutes.” I look to Cami as I take my wife’s coffee cup, setting it on the coffee table and scooping her up in my arms.
“Too late, they are all down there already, we just weren’t allowed yet.” Cami replies in a condescending tone, giving me the evil eye.
Savvy smiles as she kisses my cheek, “Thank you! I need to see them all with my own eyes.”
“Whatever you need, but you only get twenty minutes of walking around three times a day, I’ll carry you, so you don’t have to waste your time on them. I have big plans for us tonight! Be prepared to see all the big red bows and lights your heart desires! I’m taking my wife out to dinner somewhere special!” I kiss her forehead, nose, and lips the way she loves, making her giggle. It’s the most beautiful sound I have heard in a while!
“Does this mean we can all leave the house now?” Mia asks, with hope in her eyes!
“Yeah, everyone can go back to living their lives without restrictions again. We finally have them all and it’s safe! There will be guards going with you at all times for a while just in case there is anyone that we have missed. We have only kept you all here to keep you safe, you know that! Come on, we can all go down together.”
“Can I kick the shit out of Jill again?” Cami asks, and the rest of the girls all start nodding.
“I don’t see why not, but there is no need for you to get your hands dirty unless you want to. Y’all have some pent-up aggression, maybe you should take it out on the people in the caves, not the men who love you.” I try to make sure the girls’ pissy attitudes get directed at the right people before I let them loose to have their fun!
I carry Savvy down the dim lit steps to the new and improved caves. The further we descend, the quieter it seems to get, and Savvy’s breathing gets louder in my ear. We have had people down here working to make sure one, the prisoners are secure, and two, that Savvy has everything she needs to be comfortable to dictate what happens down here! The bullet-proof glass surrounding our guests’ own personal hell provides the security I wanted for the girls. There really is no need for them to get their hands dirty this time unless they want to. They get to sit back, dictate, and enjoy the show.
I set Savvy on the chaise lounge of the oversized sectional we got for the girls. They all file in and sit around Savvy as their eyes widen at how the caves have changed since the last time they were allowed down here.
“What do y’all think?” Jasper asks from inside the large glass box, spreading his arms wide. Showing off Jill in the middle of the room, set up on a sex bench, with leather cuffs that literally bite into your skin, making it impossible for her to move! Savvy knows those cuffs. I see it in her eyes, looking at Jill, who is probably in the same position she was in that house.
Jill is spread out on her back, sitting up enough to see us all, with her legs bent up and out strapped to the black leather pads that hold her legs in place. Her arms are spread out wide strapped down as well. Her ass is hanging off the end giving everyone a perfect view for what’s to come.
“Holy shit, you guys are obviously better at this than we were!” Mia chuckles as she grabs several bags of “Zapps” Voodoo chips out of the basket of snacks on the coffee table in front of the couch, handing them out to the rest of the girls. I go to the fridge we added and grab bottles of water, passing them out to each spectator, giving Mia and Savvy two.
“If you want the salty chips, you have to drink more water. June and Dr. Cowan both agreed you both have to drink more water.” I raise my eyebrows at them both as they pout, making me laugh.
“Fine, now let’s see who we have down here so I can finally have some peace.” Savvy shrugs but starts drinking her water. That’s my girl.
I take the remote out of my pocket and hit the button to make all the lights in the cells come on, showing off each guest, exactly how Savvy described she wanted them set up. The girls’ eyes all get big as smiles form on each of their faces! Each one of our guests is naked and chained to the wall with a collar, a harness, and matching ball gags. Some can move about their cells while others are locked up tight with restrictions. They have a bucket in each of their cells as well as a wool blanket. We feed them three times a day, spray them down with a water hose daily, and have the same Dr my dad has used since I was a kid come and make sure they are still thriving enough to take whatever punishments we could think of until Savvy was ready. Now she is and I couldn’t be happier!
Savvy makes eye contact with each one before she holds her hand up giving them a small wave, “Hello again. I hope you are all enjoying your stay so far. Max, look at me when I’m speaking to you!” Savvy doesn’t yell but uses a dominating voice I have never heard come out of her before. She looks over to me, tilting her head when Max doesn’t comply. I grab the box of remotes from behind the couch I almost forgot to hand out to the girls.
“Pick your color, each pet has their color marked on their collars and on their cell doors.” I smile as Savvy picks the one labeled pink after looking carefully at the cells seeing that Max has a large pink X marked on his cell door as she snickers.
“We thought you might prefer it if they didn’t have names anymore, just a color. The Saints have helped get this ready for you. They love the caves so much that we are expanding them once we take the rest of the trash out. They said for you to take all the time you need; they aren’t in a rush to use the facilities just yet.” I kiss the top of Savvy’s head as I sit on the arm of the couch, “Have some fun angel! Girls, pick your subjects for the evening.
Cami takes the remote labeled purple, for Mark, as she claps her hands excitedly! “I’ve always wanted to tase your ass for what you did to Emily. Now I get to!”
MJ looks at the cells then looks back to the box a few times before choosing the green one. I thought it was fitting for my mother, her grandmother, and the fucking bitch who stole my family from me, since she did love Shrek so much! MJ just looks me in the eye and nods with a sinister smile on her face and I realize, she is much stronger than I have given her credit for.
Abby picks orange for Jill, without even having to think about it! She looks up at Jill, “This is going to be fun for me! I hope you know that you fucking twat-waffle!”
Joe had chosen orange for Jill because she hates the color with passion! She also has a large orange X covering her upper body. He was bored that day! I should let him know what we are doing in case he thought about coming down. I know he doesn’t want to see this. I send him a quick text and get an immediate response of
Joe: Thanks, see you at lunch. Don’t kill Max tonight! Shelby deserves her revenge as well!
Sin: You got it bro! How is she?
Joe: I’ve called in the doctor to check her out. He fucking took her virginity! She thought I wouldn’t want her now! He will pay for everything he did to Shelby, Savvy, and MJ!
Sin: I’m so fucking sorry! Whatever they all need to heal from this, we will make it happen! If she needs anything, just say the word!
I put my phone away and direct my attention back to the girls. Savvy notices the change in my demeanor but doesn’t say anything.
Mia picks Black for Sylvia. She looks dead in Sylvia’s eyes and hits a button, not sure which one, but Sylvia drops to the floor and flops like a fish until Mia releases the button laughing, “Oh this is so much more fun than I thought it would be! Shit! I hope I didn’t kill her on the first round! Don’t go to the red button on the first one guys.”
Savvy holds up the remote as she looks at Max, “Ready to play fucker!”
