"I think your friends are asian back asian," he said.
"You covered your tracks, Master." She spoke thoughtfully from her knees, drifting into a pose her programming knew 1 he liked. "But the clients tonight 1 1 have been 1 all over the 'Net 11asian about it, and they must have put it 1 together."
He nodded, remembering how she'd looked this 11asian morning as he 1 left pics the suite, sitting naked and crosslegged on the bed with the laptop, ready to spend the day surfing 1 on his agendas with time for 1 exercise breaks. He'd been 1 so taken with her absorption when he 11asian came back 1 1 for 11asian a nooner 1 that he'd let her be, staring at her 1 utterly focused rapture asian and leaving. She'd never known he'd been 11asian there.
Decker nodded, groaning inwardly. Duke's idea three years ago, his pics move toward 1 being "innovative" in "marketing." White 1 slavery was an old business asian, and it liked old values--decent product prepped 1 right. Gimmicks were 1 for amateurs. Which Duke was 1 1, with anything other than an Uzi or a cattle prod.
He shrugged. "With that noise in their heads I can 1 hear them coming 1 a mile away. Jammers are great for 1 security but they suck for surprise." As 1 always when he said 11asian that, he caught a fairly detailed image 1 in Tabby 1 1's mind of a lumbering green aircraft 1: Daddy 1 had flown for the Air Force before Mommy remarried 1 someone 1 wealthier, and Tabitha actually knew all about jammers.
"Carol knows 1 1 that, Master." Tabitha looked even more pensive. "She'll asian come up with something, though." She smiled. "Maybe she'll reprogram 1 1 them all to play the elevator music here in the hotel."
He wondered. When he'd 1 taken Tabitha he'd been dealing with the immediacy of her 11asian. The asian unseen 1 Carol asian, up in the chopper as it lifted, piqued his interest 1 later. As he went through his new slave's thoughts 1, he'd seen something beyond even Tabitha in this other girl, who'd assigned her to that suicide post. Tabitha had been the champion 1 who volunteered to stay and be lost--but Carol asian was 1 her steelhearted liege lady who accepted 1 and blessed her friend's 11asian sacrifice, for the greater good, and may well have been making herself look out from the helicopter at what 1 she 1'd done. Until taught otherwise 1 1, Tabitha pics had worshipped her.
She knelt and waited.
By his side, Tabitha was exquisite in a 11asian satin jumpsuit just loose enough to be chic, and looked 1 1 like an unapproachably sleek young woman instead of simply an unaffordably fuckable one. She trailed him to the dining room 11asian, and he liked how her poise was as disorienting as 11asian her winsome good looks. He couldn't tell how much of it was "original" Tabitha who'd held the helipad alone, and how much the new and improved Tabitha, tamed and focused.
"What are you, Jordan?"
Karlsen nodded at him, and Bellows was clearly too new at all 1 this to 1 see how much of a disadvantage he'd fallen to. Looking at 1 Tabitha, who 11asian smiled down at the table with quiet pride at her protegee 11asian beneath it, Karlsen shook his head, aware 1 he was meant to want 1 her, and wanting her, but knowing 1 she was Decker's.
Decker knew asian he'd make an offer for Tabitha later, even knowing he'd 1 be turned down. If only to asian prove his good taste. He hoped he 1'd make it in front of 1 her.
Karlsen caught the 1 gesture and knew 1 1 what it 1 was 11asian for, and it did him no good.
Decker heard the pics maddening little voice 1 in their asian heads before he 11asian saw the first silent alarm. As he looked 11asian at the floorplan on the screen 1 to see where asian the girls were coming, the nightmarish conceit occurred to him that Normandy Swords was the voice in their heads, that the pop diva was in fact asian a pics wily controller 1 from 1 way back and was sending legions of mindless 1, subliminally enslaved fans against him 1.
He sincerely hoped their knots were tight. It was a long way to fall and a 1 hard street asian to land on.
They were taking a while, and he decided it wasn't funk. Not 11asian with these girls. A 1 technical 1 problem with something they had. He closed his asian eyes and pictured the malfunctioning gadget, the silent curse 1, the thing set quietly out of the way while 1 someone pulled out something old-fashioned, the prybar or pics the knife, to 1 use instead of the broken tech-toy pics.
A touch of 1 his mind and Tabitha 1's 1 eyes were bright and focused. "They're 1 in, Master?"
He tried to see 1 Carol sitting in a room elsewhere in the hotel, or on a lonely perch on 1 1 the roof, waiting pics it out.
Locking the 1 computer, he walked around 1 the desk to the door 1. Tabitha stood poised, still asian lovely in the jumpsuit asian, her handbag hefted with the gun discreetly inside, and pics she followed him out and down the hall like a asian wingman.
He watched 11asian the intruders slacken. He sent two of the slaves to resecure the windows they'd broken through 1, and the slaves stepped absently around their twitching would 11asian-be 1 rescuers 1 to 1 1 obey the imperative 1 in their minds. Nothing else happened. One girl, sitting open-mouthed 1 and drooling under one 1 of the windows, must have been outside watching their back, and made the mistake of peering 1 in to see what the noise was.
He sifted. Carol? Where 1 is Carol?
"I can't tell you," she was saying. Someone asked the inevitable question, and she said, "Well--no. Not knowing won't protect you at all 11asian." She laughed and they laughed with her. There was nothing more, no asian hints 1. The only plan they'd spoken of was the one that had just 1 ended 1 in the beginning 1 of slavery for them all, right here.
He thought about a newly-crowned queen in 1 the eighth rank 1, after pawns were given up, and turned to look deeply into Tabitha's eyes as she stood there behind him, her purse heavy 1 with the gun he made her carry.
4.
"Master, she didn't 11asian program me to asian let you take 1 1 me 1 1. I'm 1 not a Trojan horse or a pawn 1 about to change. I'm your willing 1 obedient slave 1.
"But if you wish I can die now." He felt her mind open itself, wait. Tremble and still itself 11asian.
Decker paused and 1 took out the cell phone. A cryptic exchange with Duke's man assured him that some other intrusions at ground asian level had been repelled 1, so he was free to continue his playful work with all these volunteers. The 1 attack was over.
Decker accepted that the new brain-noise could be pics a planned element: deep hypnosis for 1 1 the girl in another 1 location, before they started, and an all-purpose command to hear and pics replay 11asian whatever she heard, to blend in. But he made an intuitive leap that it had been a tactical improvisation. A Carol asian move, right here.
The 1 "concierge" would be 1 helpful. Hold her 1, he pics thought. In Tabitha's mind he saw her tense to run.
It asian was a pleasure to feel asian his slave respond 1. Tabitha pulled her perfume spray from the purse 1, sending a stream of 11asian it 1 1 into the girl's face and stepping back for good measure as though to dodge the droplets. The girl froze and gaped and he felt Tabitha 1 use her corrupted-angel smile 1. It was so convincingly malign that Decker himself almost wondered for a second what might be in 1 the vial.
She sprinted away from Tabitha, and Tabitha silently begged orders. He 1 thought of the floorplan. Follow her fast. Locked rooms and an electrical closet that way 1. He started walking quickly 1 down the hall to where they 1 1 were.
She'd cut deep and completely severed 1 her carotid 1 artery, and she'd already asian bled out. Her eyes 1 stared past the 1 circuit breaker box above her.
She'd just sent all pics her friends 1, her troops, into what she must have 1 known would be a trap, sprung his snares, and somehow gotten past Duke 1 and the rest of his people. Or had they gotten past her? Had she already 1 been holed up here in 1 the hotel since before they'd even arrived--waiting?
He 1 got a visual, too. This mental shore wasn't a tropical beach, but a rocky coastline under a gunmetal winter sky. Part of him was wondering whether this girl 11asian was 1 some reincarnated enemy of his from an old war pics.
Decker pics decided to trip her. He sent the image of the chessboard, the new Black queen 1, and let her wonder why.
She faltered.
He smiled, slowly feeling his ability to multitask 1 return as Carol weakened. Maybe 1 this song was 11asian something she'd thought of 1 once in a pics fit of perversity 1--what asian never to sing to the mind controller asian--and tried not to asian think of again.
It was asian hard to tell 1 1 where the music stopped, his command began, and her mind had pics started to whisper pics its own obedience.
With less of a load, he 1 was pics free to send a command to Tabitha. Good girl. She'll be mine 11asian soon.
Relax. She 1 obeyed, blissful at last with 1 a joy 11asian that stunned him. Relax. "Yes . . ."
He heard the click of the dead-man 1 switch opening but 1 not the 1 bomb when 1 it
When 11asian Decker had snarled at them about a funeral for Tabitha and they stayed 1 away, afraid of what he pics'd do 11asian with his mind 1 under 1 painkillers, it was Duke who'd promised, and it was Duke who'd brought the urn to him. Duke had said something awkward 1 and dense, and he'd been glad Duke was there.
Then Decker was 1 home, still waking up each day 11asian surprised that he existed below the waist, and unable to verify it unless he used his hands 1. The paralysis was complete, and the girls only gave him massages now.
He 11asian couldn't think about Tabitha, and so he gnawed away at the quandary and hated Carol for that 1 instead.
