Chapter3

#Chapter3

Armarria woke in a feverish state. Her body hot and achy. She dreamt of Savion. His body covering hers until she disappeared under him. He took her body to new heights in the dream and she wanted him to do it in real life, but she was afraid to feel again. She got dressed and walked into the kitchen where the kids ate breakfast.

Sara ran up and hugged her. /"Miss Armarria./" She was so excited to see her.

/"Sara leave her be. She will be on her way this morning./" Shadow intervened. Armarria sighed. Allowing Shadow such satisfaction of her leaving made her want to stay just to get back at him. Then Savion walked in and her heart did a little flutter. That’s the real reason she couldn’t stay.

/"Morning./" He smiled. She blushed like a school girl at such a beautiful smile. /"Morning Brother./" He spoke grimly to Shadow. Shadow turned around placing a plate on the table for Savion.

/"Morning,/" Shadow answered.

/"Miss Armarria, you’re leaving?/" Jet asked, disappointed.

Armarria placed her hand on the boy’s head lovingly. /"Yes. I’m sorry you guys./"

/"But why?/" Melody asked.

Savion sat at the table in front of his plate. /"Miss Armarria has a life to live outside of here. Giving up your old life and adapting can be confusing. We all know what that is like. Maybe she will be back./" Savion came to her rescue keeping the children’s heart from becoming broken.

/"I’m sorry guys I really will miss you./" Armarria comforted the children.

Savion stood from the table. /"I should get going taking her back…/"

/"Cautiously./" Shadow blurted.

Savion sighed annoyed. /"I know what to do Shadow. This is not my first time leaving you know./"

Shadow stood up as well. /"It is with this woman in the passenger seat./" He walked off. Savion crossed his arms. He looked over at Armarria, still pleading, but he wouldn’t beg.

/"Perhaps it is for the best./" He told himself. /"Grab yourself a plate to go. I will be in the car./" He walked out of the kitchen door, leaving Armarria speechless. He was angry with her.

/"This is for the best./" She told herself, as she waved goodbye to the children and walked out the door to the car. She opened the car door and sat inside.

/"No food?/"

Armarria shook her head. /"Not that hungry./"

Savion started the car. /"I should warn you it’s about three hour drive back to your bank./"

Armarria’s eyes bucked opened. /"Three hours?/" he pulled out the driveway. /"If you get hungry just let me know. I can pull over somewhere./"

/"You have a bank three hours away? That’s crazy?/"

Savion laughed softly. /"Not when you have the government after you. We go far away to keep them from tracking us. I am fine with the drive. It helps me think and get away from everything./"

Armarria bit her bottom lip. She didn’t know what she was doing. /"I’m sorry./" Was all she could manage before the car fell into silence. Savion opened his mouth to speak countless times in the hour's pass but nothing would come out. He was good at talking. He was the most outgoing brother after all. Shadow was never the people person.

He wondered if it was the sting in his heart that he tried to ignore or the heat rising inside the car. His cock was harder than it had ever been and the need to pull over and bury himself was unusually strong. Lust never ran so deep to become a need. Savion gripped the wheel tighter cursing in his mind. He was losing it. He needed to distract himself. He reached for the radio, but couldn’t bring himself to turn it on.

/"What do.../"

/"How did you.../"

They glanced at each other as they spoke at the same time. /"I am sorry go ahead./" Savion glanced back at the road.

/"I was going to ask how you rescued your sisters and brothers. Jet told me you saved them from a G.E.M facility./" Savion hesitated for a moment as the flashback consumed him.

Flashback

Savion looked over at his brother with fear in his eyes as the Cloak tortured Shadow muffling his screams right in front of him. They had black veils drenched on their heads to cover their identity. They placed him in his pod, still muffled by the mask they placed over his face. His eyes read horror. At twenty-three years old they both had seen a lot, but they stuck together no matter.

At five, they were snatched away from their parents and taken to become G.E.M.s. They were trained to become killers by the Cloak and sometimes by other G.E.M members, grooming them to be the greatest killing machine. They had become dangerous. Far too dangerous. That’s when the experiments became brutal.

At around the age of twenty, the Cloak visited them expecting their enhanced abilities to show. Shadow had shown no signs of having any so they wanted to dispose of him. Savion knew if his brother died he would be next. There would be no one without the other. Savion would fight for his brother until his death. Men wearing black came into the room. Savion instantly fought the restraints that shackled his wrist to keep him prisoner in his pod. He lifted his wrist forcefully with veins popping out of his arm as the men took Shadow away.

/"No! Bring him back!/" He screamed. One of the Cloak members laughed.

/"You cannot save him Savion. You have something he doesn’t possess. We want power, not weak links like Shadow. He will be dealt with like all those who can’t gather power./"

Savion’s anger grew. His head began to shake up to the ceiling of the pod. He could feel the surge of power run through him. The power they had given him will now be the power that kills them. His head lowered and his eyes popped open, they had turned completely red. Savion broke free of the shackles and began pounding on the glass. He screamed, pounding everything he had into his fist.

/"Stop him!/" One of the men yelled as he rushed off with Shadow. The alarm sounded, causing the facility’s security to rush in. That didn’t stop Savion. One last punch and the glass broke, exploding forward cutting some men as they fell back. Others tried to restrain him with powerful metal clubs. One guard swung left. Another on his right side. Savion placed his hand right between him and the attack, grabbing the club and elbowing the guard all in one motion.

The second guy rushed Savion with a powerful swing. He dodged using the club from the first attacker, he grabbed his head and headbutted him unconscious, breaking his neck as he did so. The other guards began to pile on Savion as if he was the quarterback holding the ball. He smirked as he lifted them all up carrying them on his back he ran backward against the wall, breaking it, and all the guards spat up blood as their bones broke.

He looked behind him and noticed the wall cracking. He gave it one more punch and the foundation crumbled. He looked around the cold room seeing a young girl on the floor, naked, in the fetal position. Without hesitation, Savion’s eyes turned back auburn as he took off his robe to give to the girl. Luckily they kept them in shorts to prevent him from being naked.

She flinched afraid. /"Calm down. I will not hurt you./" She inched closer to the wall for safety. More men barricaded the hole and the young girl’s cell entrance. Savion grabbed the metal club ready for any attack. The men behind him attacked first. He used his powerful legs to kick back, sending men flying back into the hallway.

He swung the club, bashing another guard’s head into the wall. The girl screamed as the blood spilled out. Savion didn’t falter his act on the violence. As he scooped the girl into his arms, he spun around crouched on the ground, kicking guards off their feet. He walked back to the crumbled room and down the hall to his brother.

More guards came attacking, thinking Savion weak because he held a child in his arms, but he fought with one hand kicking and punching his way past. The violence caused the girl to turn her head.

/"I know where your brother is. Go left./" Savion heard the girl’s voice and somehow trusted she knew the way. The lights blinked down the hall as if they were staging a scene for horror. There were huge double doors leading into what looked like the operating room.

Savion growled deep, remembering the times they stuck him and probed him and his brother. The pain they had to endure in these halls. It was sickening. Now he knew for certain it was a work of pure evil witnessing the little girl in his arms.

The little girl pointed to a room at the end of the hall. /"He is in there./" Savion cautiously began walking towards where she had pointed. With a sudden burst of energy, he rammed a door next to him, diving inside. Shots fired out from the police guards, now with guns.

Savion mentally cursed. /"Stay here./" The little girl grabbed his hand. /"No, they will take me again. Please./" She cried.

He touched her cheeks. /"What’s your name?/"

/"Melody./"

/"Well, Melody I’m coming back for you. I promise./"

He looked around for a weapon. He had lunged his metal pipe in the hallway before at a guard and didn’t think to get it back. He tore a pipe from the walls.

/"This should work./" He walked out the room securing it closed behind him. Shots fired again, but this time Savion expertly twirled the pipe so the bullets bounced off the pipe and back to the officers.

He hit as many as he could. The remaining patch began to reload giving Savion a clear shot to attack. He grabbed a stretcher that was lying in the hallway and threw it towards the remaining guards crushing their bodies from the impact. The rage began to consume him the thrill of killing becoming addicting. He suddenly felt a sting in his shoulder and another in his leg.

He didn’t flinch or show any signs of pain. He just looked back at the attacker. He began walking towards him slowly. Another shot hit his chest. Blood spilled, but as quickly as he got hit by the bullets the other wounds were already healing. The guard ran out of bullets by the time Savion reached him.

/"What have you bastards done to my brother?/" His voice unrecognizable even to himself. He was almost demonic.

The guy wasn’t a guard as he thought. He was a mad scientist, one of many in the lab. Savion grabbed his throat squeezing and lifting him to the ground. The scientist struggled to breathe as he crushed his throat.

/"Stop please./" Savion’s head jerked toward the voice coming from the storage room. He threw the man away not caring where he landed and hurried to the storage room.

/"Stop fighting bitch get back to your room./" A scientist reached for Melody which caused Savion to become sick to his stomach.

Without thought, he began beating him with the pipe. Melody screamed at the horrifying sight. The man’s brains spewed out and painted the walls. Savion felt a wave of sadness for the girl running through his mind just thinking of what those sick bastards did to her.

/"Come on./"

She sniffed but grabbed his hand anyways. Savion knew she was afraid of him as well as the Cloak.

/"Do not fear me little one. I will never hurt you. We will get out of this together./" He picked her back into his arm, pipe in the other hand. He opened the huge door cautiously. There were no guards. Weird since the place was huge.

/"This is wing two. There are others here like us./" Melody spoke softly.

/"How many?/" Savion asked.

Melody shrugged. /"I talk to one every day. He can see me even after I leave my body./" Savion looked at Melody. /"His name is David./"

/"You can spirit walk? Have you physically left your room?/" Melody shook her head sadly. That pissed Savion off even more. /"Those bastards. You are just a baby./"

/"I’m seven./" She objected. /"I’m not a baby./" The little girl was wise beyond her years, she had seen too much.

/"Savion!/"

His eyes shot up. /"Shadow!/"

He ran into the room with his brother. His eyes widened as he saw his brother was cut into pieces. His legs were gone and blood poured like a fountain. Dead bodies were lying on the floor despite his condition. Savion placed Melody down and ran over to his brother.

/"Melody, I need some towels a rag or something./" She understood and looked around the room. /"Hold on Shadow./" Melody ran up and handed Savion some bandages.

/"I can find someone who can help./"

Before Savion could protest Melody’s body went limp to the floor. While he waited he blocked all the doors and barricaded them inside. Melody began to breathe heavily.

/"It’s a baby. She can heal him./" She proclaimed. /"She’s a few rooms down./" Savion held the wounds on Shadows legs. He looked at him for confirmation.

/"It is worth a try./" He groaned. Savion didn’t like the odds but didn’t have much of a choice.

/"Hide somewhere Shadow can see you./" He instructed Melody.

She nodded. Savion gathered all his strength running shoulder first to the wall Melody had pointed out and he kept running until he reached the room three doors down. He burst open the second wall to find himself in a padded room. He felt the energy surge through him as if an enemy was trying to attack him.

He felt a brush down by his legs, tilting his head confused. A little boy was punching him furiously. He picked the boy by his shirt.

/"Hey put me down./" The boy wiggled and jumped quickly out his arms.

/"Calm down. I am not here to hurt you./" He crouched to look at the boy in the eyes so he could see the truth within them. /"I am trying to help you. If you wish to stay then do not get in my way./" The boy calmed down when Savion stood.

/"I must find a healer. People are coming. Either you come with me or not./"

The kid pondered over the thought. Savion let the boy think it over as he gathered his strength to burst through the last wall. Again the room was cold even for Savion. He shivered as he looked at the baby sitting up in the crib smiling at him, chewing on her fingers. Savion began to become discouraged. This one year old child couldn’t possibly heal his brother, but he had to try.

He picked the baby up gently in his arms still cautious. No guards came through to attack him yet. Something was wrong. He couldn’t afford to think about the future now he had to heal his brother and hopefully the little bundle of joy could do it. He looked down, the boy was there.

/"She’s pretty./" The boy said.

/"Yes come with me to take her to my brother./"

/"I can take her./" The boy volunteered.

Savion lowered his eyes doubtful. /"I’m really fast. That’s why they call me Jet./"

Savion looked at the baby. She touched his cheeks. He instantly felt any wounds he had healing. /"Alright careful then. Hurry to Shadow./" He gently handed the baby to Jet. He was gone the next second, a blur down the pathway Savion created.

Savion took a step but had to take a quick step back. A metal chained pierced the wall ready to attack. He looked back as the chain retracted. He felt the power flowing through. The attacker was definitely enhanced, most likely the best. No more need for guards. Now they sent the assassins.

/"You know, Savion, no one thought you or your brother had it in you. I guess some enhanced flourish late in life./"

Savion’s eyes lowered with deadly intent. /"Raul./" His voice was low and demonic. The memories of Savion and Raul were never good. He was one of the trainers who snatched them from their parents.

Raul laughed. /"What’s wrong? Not happy to see me?/" The metal chain ascended again towards Savion but stopped before it hit Savion’s face.

/"Am I always saving your ass?/" Shadow laughed softly at his brother as he held the chain. He held the baby in one hand and the other two kids clutched onto his leg.

/"Take the kids Shadow. Get them out. I will be there shortly./" Raul retracted his chain back from Shadow causing him to dodge with the kids as he whipped the chain forward. Savion grabbed the chain this time. /"Go now!/"

Savion ran towards Raul, dodging the chain as much as he could. He got thrown back a couple of times. The chain cut through his flesh, but he never faltered.

/"We have to get David./" Savion heard Melody, becoming distracted as she started to run off.

/"Stop Melody!/" Shadow yelled, running after her.

Before Raul could attack her Shadow took the blow. The chain missed his chest and hit his shoulder instead thanks to Savion punching Raul in the face causing him to fall back. Shadow made sure the baby wouldn’t get hit as he graced the shoulder wound.

/"Go find David!/" Savion lunged at Raul throwing him down to the floor.

Raul moved right when he swung left, dodging every attempt, kicking Savion against the wall. He retracted his chain one last time, throwing it at Savion. The chain wrapped around his neck tightly choking him. Savion struggled to get out, but Raul’s grip only became tighter as he struggled.

/"I will kill you and your brother and those children will be locked away for life being experimented on and tortured. You should know what that life is like right? All those children will have to grow up with no families and no life to become the greatest weapon known to man thanks to us./" Raul laughed evilly.

Savion’s mouth twitched with anger thinking about all the trials those kids had already been through. He could not let them stay here for the years he did.

Shadow and Savion could take the harsh conditions, but he would never wish it upon anyone else. He screamed, widening his neck and the chain with undeniable strength. The chain broke. Raul looked surprised. Savion pulled the chain back towards himself sending Raul flying towards him. He reached up and thrust his hand into the pits of his chest. Raul gasped.

/"Fuck you./" Savion ripped his heart out of his chest with no remorse. No regrets.

Shadow and the children ran back up with another teenage boy.

/"Shit Savion./" Shadow stared at Raul’s lifeless body a bit shocked at the grotesque scene.

/"Get them out. I am burning this place down./"

End of flashback

/"I killed over a hundred men that night and watched the place burn. Shadow and I turned away and never looked back. The children had no families and I could not leave them. They are my brothers and sisters no doubt./" He looked over at Armarria wiping her eyes.

/"That’s so sad./" She replied in-between sniffs.

Savion shrugged. /"It is our life and we chose to live it. I hope one day you will learn how to do the same and get away from the normal, leaving whatever has kept you prisoner./" He pulled up to the motel she was living in. /"This place right?/" She looked around realizing she was at her motel.

/"Yeah, thanks./" She looked back towards him, heart heavy. She knew he was dangerous which is why she was running away from him. She made up her mind to maybe talk things out with Ryan and find some normalcy again, but with Savion, right there in front of her all she wanted was to make his and her pain go away.

She leaned over kissing him on his cheeks at first. /"I hope one day you will find peace; you and the kids./"

Savion’s cheek burned and he wanted more of her. He grabbed the back of her head and took over her lips with his, very gentle, but desperate. He felt the weight on his shoulders lift as she kissed him back.

The pure sensation between them drove them both crazy. It was Savion who deepened the kiss, pushing harder to her, hoping to get into her mind and between her legs. The feeling overwhelmed Armarria to the point that she didn’t feel like herself. Everything was more. She’d had sex with Ryan plenty of times, but she wanted to climax just from kissing Savion, which had never happened before.

Maybe, just maybe she can explore this feeling for one night. Enjoy this man before she walked out of his life forever. She pulled away to catch her breath.

/"I have to go./"

Savion slowly ran his fingers over her cheek down her neck alongside her arm. The simple touch sent shivers of anticipation down her spine. She felt her core become wet to the point she had to move her leg uncomfortably.

/"I am coming in with you./" He commanded.

Savion turned off the car and opened his side before she could protest. He opened her side like a gentleman. Armarria licked her dry lips, trying to contain the excitement she felt of Savion going into her hotel room. The doubt was still there, holding on to the fear. She didn’t know him at all.

That was out of her character first and foremost, but the undeniable connection was there. Her body called to his body. That was the scary exciting part. As she stood out of the car, his hands wrapped around her waist, pulling him closer, so her body was in-between the car and his rock steel body. The closeness caused her to moan. The bulge in his pants was also seen and felt.

He leaned down to kiss her, driving them both to the edge. They both needed release. A sweet release before they parted ways. Savion had a different agenda in mind, a selfish one. He wanted to fuck her brains out to change her mind about coming back with him. He was a stubborn man and he refused to beg no matter how much he wanted or needed something.

This woman was driving him insane. Never had he wanted to have sex with a woman so badly. He was willing to take her on top of the car in broad daylight. The thought scared him, but the feeling was so intense he couldn’t stop himself. Maybe his brother was right and he was under some spell, but at that time he didn’t care. He wasn’t thinking clearly.

/"Maybe we should go to the room./" Armarria gasped, pulling away from him. Savion laughed softly.

/"If that is what you wish./" Armarria’s eyes sprang open to his seduction. The wild side she just discovered with him was almost ready to accept his offer as she began to walk towards her hotel room.

As horny as he was, Savion still scanned the area for any enhanced around that would try and hurt her once he left, or follow him back. She opened her room door, looking around, nothing was out of place. Savion paused at the sight though.

/"You live here?/" He asked in a simple nonjudgmental tone.

Armarria nodded, feeling embarrassed by the small size of the room. /"It’s a place until I get enough to get my own. I just needed to hide out for awhile./"

Savion looked at the menu on the tv stand. /"From your ex you mean?/"

Armarria sighed as she reached for the drawer and pulled out a condom. Before she could frown she walked over to Savion.

/"I don’t know what it is between us, but I just want to forget about him for tonight./"

She stepped on her tiptoes to reach his lips; he leaned down to meet her halfway. He pressed her body against the wall as he did before on the car, but this time she wrapped her legs around his waist, deepening the kiss. Armarria reached for his shirt needing to feel his bare skin on hers. Her body was going up in flames at the heat Savion protruded so close to her. As he raised his arms to take his shirt off, he pushed even closer to her, wanting her to feel his erection.

He started kissing her neck while he caressed her breast causing her to moan, as he caressed them and slid his thumb over her nipples softly until they were hard peaks. Her body arched into him as she pulled her shirt over her head, along with her bra. Her breast spilled out pressing against Savion bare chest. As he walked towards the bed to give them better access, he continued to kiss her neck down to her breast.

He laid her down gently on the bed, taking the right breast into his mouth while massaging the other. Armarria withered and moaned at the sensitivity of his mouth on her taut nipple, his tongue rolled over it causing her to moan even more. Liquid poured when she thought she couldn’t get any wetter. Savion took his time, wanting this memory to last forever, but his body wasn’t listening.

He withdrew his pants and boxers onto the floor, still licking on her breast. He removed his tongue from her breast from a moment to remove her pants. She opened her eyes to see Savion in all his glory. He was beautifully naked and extremely hot. His erection caught her attention then. He was thick. Before she could say anything she was naked laid out in front of him like an offering.

/"You are so beautiful./" He awed over her, while she awed over him.

He grabbed the condom from her and slid it on. He crawled over her until he was in the perfect position to slide his penis inside of her. He kissed her again, pouring everything he was into the kiss before he eased his head in. Armarria grabbed ahold to his shoulder, sucking in a breath from the friction of just the head. Savion was fighting for control as he wanted to thrust into her over and over.

She was hot and slick, very welcoming to his sweet invasion. He eased in more, watching her reaction to make sure he wasn’t hurting her. Once he was inside he began a slow pace first. Savion threw his head back from the feeling of being inside her. She felt like home to him in the best way possible. It saddened him that there was a possibility he would never feel at home like this again, but until that time he would enjoy her for as long as he could.

Armarria arched her body to him, as she clenched the bed sheets. The moans came out uncontrollably and wild as his thighs began to slap against hers at a faster pace. Her muscles began to clench, smothering Savion’s penis. He groaned.

/"That is right baby, cum for me./" He thrust harder inside her until she felt like she was shattered into a million pieces.

She convulsed while she moaned louder. Her eyes burst open, a hazy brown, with the lightning bolt in her pupils. Savion felt it as well as the surge of power became overwhelming for him. Somehow he was connected to her and he was feeling what she was feeling. He began to moan as well as he continued his assault.

He tested different speeds and thrust, holding her close and licking her nipples. She was gasping after an hour.

/"Want me to stop?/" Savion asked nibbling her ear.

Armarria shook her head. How the hell could he ask her that? She was having the best sex of her life. Savion smiled.

/"This does not have to be the end. You can always come back with me./"

He reached around her and grabbed her leg lifting it up to his waist as his penis inched in deeper into her core as he thrust inside her again. At that moment she would do anything he said as she felt the orgasm building again. This one stronger than the first as he thrust his hips until she was whimpering with pleasure. She clenched again, but this time she took Savion with her as they both climaxed together.

He kissed her as they both rode the wave of pleasure together. Savion pulled away staring into her eyes for a moment unable to stop himself. He caressed her cheeks.

/"I shouldn’t./" She replied, sitting up. Savion gave her space to move as he sat on the bed beside her.

/"You should. How can you go back to normal after knowing you are not?/"

He wanted to sound uncaring, but he did care. This woman had changed him forever in such a short period of time. Now, after the sex, he felt even more connected to her in some way more than he did before. It was beginning to anger him that she was ignoring that feeling. Then the realization hit. Maybe he was the only one feeling those things.

She began to put her clothes back on causing Savion to get up and find his as well. Right when he reached for his pants, his phone rung. As if she would change her mind his eyes took one last look at her, soaking her into his memory. He looked down at the time and cursed. Two hours had passed in the midst of their lovemaking.

/"Yes, Shadow?/" He answered annoyed.

/"Why have you not checked in?/"

Savion sighed. /"No need I am on my way back./"

He hung up the phone, glancing at Armarria. His hand grabbed a pen from the desk and wrote on the menu.

/"In case you run into any trouble call me. The Cloak will not stop looking for you now that you have exposed your powers. Take care of yourself Armarria./" He grabbed his keys from out his pockets, and without hesitation walked out the door.
