Free I Won't Let You Die Angel by Neal Goldy Page B

this is really touching
and all. You two definitely qualify for an opera, but I don’t have time for this.
You better leave, Neil, or I’ll have to call in some of my friends, which I guess
won’t do any good to your eminent reputation.”
    Neil did not budge. He was
still looking at me intensely, his eyes speaking volumes.
    “Get your arse out of my
house right NOW or do you want to make an irrevocable enemy in the name of Majestic ”,
threatened Storm.
    Neil waggled his legs slowly
for a few moments, looked around and counting the number of guards. He then stormed
out of the room without even a glance towards me. I struggled hopelessly, and Storm
subdued me easily.
    “Give it a rest, sister
dear, you can’t possibly think to escape me forever, can you?” His mouth was now
dangerously close to my ears. Aggregating all the strength I had left, I wrenched
out of his grasp and scooted as far away from him as I could.
    “Did I say something to
offend you, sweetheart? Oh, please, we have met after so many years, I deserve a
proper reunion, don’t I?” He chuckled at his joke.
    “You have surpassed every
stage of being disgusting, Sam.” I spat furiously.
    My words didn’t even earn
as much as a frown from him. “Whatever you say, sis . I bet your intelligent
boyfriend did not make much of a pleasant date, did he? I assure you, I have much
in store.”
    “I’m NOT your sister. Stop
slandering the relationship between a brother and a sister. And I don’t know what
boyfriend you are talking…” then it hit me. Kevin!!!
    He must be talking about
Kevin because of the intelligent comment, but he was not close to being my boyfriend.
I stared at him, confusion brimming in my mind. “You know about Kevin?”
    “You had a huge crush on
that wannabe young scientist, right? So I granted your wish and made him ask you
out although he wanted some other Barbie doll. This is what a good brother does.
You clearly have no appreciation of the good deeds I do for you.” He made a sincere
face that I hated at the moment.
    Barbie doll. I hated the
fact that he had the same sense of humor about people as I do. “Made him? What did
you make him do?” What was he talking about?
    He was in his own train
of speech. “You never know the kind of power you get in the underworld, even hypnotizing
a 19 year-old boy. I daresay, it was real fun messing up that guy’s mind.”
    I was speechless. “You…..
You… hypnotized him…. Why?” I stared in horror. This was no revenge reunion from Storm. It was something big. He had not just abducted me for his amusement
to make my life a living hell. He wanted something else from me, something that
was not personal, something I had no idea of. Majestic, that was the word
both Sam and Neil used.
    “What do you want from me,
Sam? And what is Majestic ?”
    “Not what , sis; who .
You have no idea what our mother dragged you into, do you? I won’t blame you, but
I will specially thank mother for this involuntary favor she did for me.”
    I must be drowsy because
each word was passing over my head. “Mom!!! What does mom have to do with all this?”
I asked, totally bewildered now.
    He took my hands. I flinched
and pulled away. “All right, you want me to go straight to business.” He traced
the hollow of my throat despite my protests. “Where is the pendant mom so lovingly
gifted you? I don’t see it here.”
    I was more confused now.
I didn’t know what he wanted with my turquoise necklace but I was so not going to
give it to him. While small inner voice told me to give him my pendant and run away,
my conscious mind warned me that I was helpless here. If I gave him what he wanted,
then he would inflict all sorts of brutalities on me, I had no doubt of that. And
judging from the amount of armed men milling about, I was sure that the words spoken
during our little battle in Disneyland had reached here.
    “It’s in the cupboard at
the Professor Collins’s house.” I replied
