His head snapped up to meet her bland eyes. "I've come to a realization my darling." Laslie began to pace. "Souls do not reincarnate together out of some foolish concept of love. No! There is one thing that runs the world. One thing that everyone seeks out. Power." Laslie stopped moving and turned towards her. "That is what I have come to understand. Without power, we are all at the mercy of the fates. And that is a position I refuse to be in."
Laslie moved over to Alicia's skirt, discarded on the floor. As he lifted it, he realized it was in little better condition than she was. He slid the motel key into her pocket and turned to one of the guards. "Put this back on her, give her a shirt and escort her from here." He looked back to his one-time love and felt sorrow over what might have been. "She will never bother us again."

jpz007ahrenalmost 11 years agoWonderfully written story. Horrific outcome, but still written well.
I too saw the writing in the shower, but it started even before that. It started when she submitted to him in the jeep after his departure from his home. War twists some people in unimaginable ways. I saw the greed in him then, when they were going to make love after that and he had to hold himself back from making her submit.
Fortunately, I have read some other stories you've written. Like others, if this were my only information of your writing I could not bear reading such tragedy.
You've not written anything in a while, and this story is ages old. But still in my mind I can only request vengeance for her, or her kind. Damn you. My soul bleeds from this torment.
Rheamistressalmost 12 years agoJust for the record, I, for one, realized that the more he handled the weapons of power, the more he changed. And not for the better. That old adage that absolute power corrupts absolutely, comes to mind. I would like to see another story where he comes to realize this. I think I know what the other comments were trying to say without saying it. They, like me, were hoping for that happy ending. But life is not always fair nor love always true. I admit to staying mad for over a week about the way it ended. But somehow, I got a feeling that you just may have given yourself an excellent way of creating a continuation. smiling
dliterabout 12 years agoThis is a story I wish I hadn't wasted the time reading! I enjoyed the beginning but the last 3 chapters weren't worth the time to read them. I have to wonder, as someone else asked, did someone else write them? They were nothing like your other story, "Gifting Night." I am so glad I read it first because if I had found it after reading this I never would have read it. Sorry, but I really won't read anymore and that is a shame because "Gifting Night" was excellent.
targetdroneover 12 years agocompletely around and slap a crap ending on it... sans the last 3 chapters your story was a high rate... did you let someone else continue? i feel sad for the time i wasted with your story after seeing how you butchered it in the end ....
shanleyboyover 12 years agoi loved the first few chapters then you had to go and ruin it by having him rape her in the shower and from then on it went from bad to worse and then impossibly worse
