The Life of Anna, Part 4: Ensnared (34 page)

Wilhelm cupped her cheek. “The best thing you
can do right now, Anna, is to forget what I told you. If Devin
suspects you know....” He sighed. “I should not have told you
anything. If Devin suspects, he would lock you away for the next
year and a half. We cannot let that happen.”

The town car pulled into the driveway of
Anna’s house and Wilhelm looked out the window. “
Kommen
Sie
, let me help you forget.”

He led her into the house, and after greeting
the new housekeeper, took her upstairs and used everything within
him to bind up the knowledge and tuck it away, deep into her mind
so that Devin wouldn’t know what she knew. It was the only thing he
could do as an Elder to protect her.

Anna had been dreading this moment, and it
had finally come. They were driving to Devin’s house for Wilhelm to
drop her off. She’d had such a wonderful time in Germany. She had
felt so at peace and now it was back to the harsh reality. She
tried to hide it from Wilhelm, but he knew she was nervous. To be
living with Devin frightened her. A few years ago she wouldn’t have
said that, but now...he had been getting progressively crueler as
time went on.

“I will be out for opening night, Anna,”
Wilhelm promised as they pulled up to Devin’s house. “I cannot wait
to see you dance again.”

“I will be counting the days until I can see
you again, Wilhelm,” she said, trying to hide the fear from
him.

“I will do what I can for you, Anna. Call me
if you need anything. The house is yours, Anna. It will always be
available to you.”

Anna nodded and leaned forward to kiss him.
“Thank you, Wilhelm.”

He patted her hand. “I will walk you to the
door.”

The driver removed her suitcase from the
trunk and Wilhelm pulled it up to the front door. Anna rang the
doorbell and the housekeeper answered it. They walked inside and
Anna huddled next to Wilhelm while they waited for Devin.

He came downstairs a few minutes later,
wearing snug jeans, a black polo shirt and an arrogant smile on his
face. “Anna, I’ve missed you,” he said, fisting her hair and
kissing her hard. He pulled back to study her face and frowned. He
turned to Wilhelm and gave him a curt nod. “You may go now. Thank
you for returning her to me.”

Wilhelm set his jaw. “I will be out for
opening night of Nutcracker. I expect to find her healthy and
whole.”

Devin grinned. “Of course, Wilhelm. I
wouldn’t destroy my prime asset, would I?”

Wilhelm’s eyes narrowed. “I expect to be able
to call her as well.”

Devin shrugged. “Go ahead.”

Wilhelm held his arms open to her and she ran
to him and hugged him. “I love you,
Liebling,
” he
whispered. “Call me. Anytime. Do not worry about the time
difference.”

Anna blinked at the tears that were blinding
her and nodded. “I love you, Wilhelm,” she whispered and gave him a
brave smile.

He leaned forward, kissed her on the cheek
once more and then turned and walked to the door. The housekeeper
had obviously been instructed to wait for his departure, and she
opened the door for him. He glanced back with a smile to Anna and
then left.

Anna’s shoulders slumped as he disappeared
from sight and Devin came up behind her and sucked on her neck. She
moaned softly as he bit the tender skin gently and then harder.
“Ah!” she cried out in pain.

“Come upstairs. We need to get reacquainted.”
He took her hand and led her up to the master suite on the third
floor. “If I don’t want you in my bed, you will sleep in Sandy’s
old room. Your things have been put in there, including your things
from the apartment.”

“Thank you, Master.”

“Your time, when you are not dancing, will be
devoted to me. You will not go anywhere without asking me for
permission. You will not date anyone. You will not let anyone
inside your body without my permission.” They walked into the
second bedroom of the master suite. “Your pussy is mine and it will
only be used by me and men I designate. If I find you fucking
someone I’ve not given you permission to fuck...well, I will make
sure to remind you of the consequences of that action.” He was
talking about Ben. “Do you understand?”

“Yes, Master,” she said softly, looking
around to hide the tears that threatened to start in her eyes. The
room had large picture windows that looked out onto the bay, making
it light and airy. French doors led out onto a terrace that had
Devin’s bedroom on the other side. It was a nice room.

“The general public will know that you are my
mistress. Your fellow dancers will know that you are my mistress.
Everything you do will reflect on me, so you’d better learn to
behave properly.” He left the threat hanging in the cool air of the
room.

“Yes, Master.”

“I would have you change your name back to
Perkins, but you are too well known to do that.” He tapped his
fingers on the marble mantle of the fireplace that stood across
from the bed. “Men will come here to fuck you, as they did in the
other places you lived. You know how to deal with that. We may
travel more, though I will take your dancing schedule into
consideration. Your dancing is quite captivating and I will use it
to my advantage.”

“Yes, Master.”

He turned and walked out of the room. Anna
ran to catch up with him as he walked into his bedroom. “I get home
around six every evening. I expect you to be here,” he pointed to
the bottom corner of the bed. “Naked and on your knees, prepared to
satisfy my needs. Then we will eat dinner.”

“Yes, Master.”

“I may occasionally have you meet me downtown
for a dinner meeting. In that case, I will tell you what to wear
and you will show up on time and ready to do whatever I ask of
you.”

“Yes, Master.”

He walked across the room to her and lifted
her chin. “Do you know why an Elder-Mistress is so alluring?” he
asked, his voice suddenly softer.

Anna blinked. Did he want her to answer that?
“B-because we’re half-Immortal?”

Devin smiled. “Yes. Partially. Your mere
presence is alluring and seductive and can be used to manipulate
and control, as you’ve seen.” He trailed his fingers down her
throat. “Your body gives me that power and for that I am grateful.”
He traced around her breasts with his index finger and then brushed
against her nipple, making it harden instantly. He smiled and
grasped it between his knuckles and squeezed.

Anna cried out in pain and he smiled at the
tears in her eyes.

“I like it when you’re in pain, Baby,” he
said quietly. “It turns me on.” He released her nipple and she took
in a shaky breath. “Of course, I also like watching you come.” He
turned and walked to the bed. “Remove your clothing and lay down on
the bed.”

Anna quickly undressed and lay her clothes on
a chair next to her.

“Did you also know that an Immortal’s cum has
the same qualities that you have? By taking it into my body, it
gives me an...infusion...of Immortality and the powers associated
with it. That’s why Elders are fucked by the Immortals when they
become Elders. They all have an element of the Immortal in them. I
happen to have more because....” He laughed. “Well, because I
wanted it and I took it.” He sat on the bed next to her. “When you
combine an Immortal and an Elder-Mistress, it becomes even more
powerful. That’s why the pregnancy every year. That’s why I can do
the things I do. But,” Devin traced circles around her breasts.
“Being with the Elders made me realize how limited my powers are
outside the country, and I can’t have that. Eventually, I will need
to manipulate the world Elders and I can’t do all that from here.”
He looked deeply into her eyes. “I need more of you, more of your
essence and the essence of the Immortals.”

Anna became more and more frightened as she
listened to him speak. “Will you kill me again?” Not that death
seemed like a bad thing.

“Oh, no. That wouldn’t do any good. The
powers wear off after a while, which is why I need you here with me
and why the spring ritual must be performed each year. But I need
more than that if I am to succeed. I don’t want to have to fly to
DC every time the fucking president decides he doesn’t want to
listen to me. My very words need the power, not just my body.” He
smiled and slid his fingers down her thighs and then up again, then
slid a finger inside her body and pulled it out, holding up his wet
finger. “This is your essence, Anna. Your power in liquid form.” He
sucked on his finger. “By itself, it can make men want to do what
you want them to do. It can reinforce my own manipulative skills
for a time. But combined with an Immortal’s cum, it’s almost as
good as your dead babies.”

Anna forced herself not to react to his
words, but the way he spoke so callously both broke her heart and
terrified her.

He chuckled. “I didn’t fully understand that
until my trip to Vitaly’s funeral. He has some very interesting
books at his disposal. Books that aren’t supposed to exist. I have
a few of the same, but his collection is truly amazing. One spoke
of a man who had multiple Elder-Mistresses and Immortals under his
control. By using their own powers against them, he was able to
control the Immortals and everyone around him.” He sighed. “I can
never hope to have multiple Elder-Mistresses, but I can use the one
I have and suck her dry...literally.”

He leaned down and licked at her pussy for a
few minutes. Anna squirmed and moaned. He sat up and licked his
lips.

“Mmm. So sweet.” He leaned his head against
her knee and pulled at her rings. “It won’t be all unpleasant,
Baby. Orgasms create more juices. I think you might begin to enjoy
yourself. And,” He grinned. “Kaveh will be a common bedmate.” He
smiled with wicked eyes. “Kaveh likes a good chase, though. Your
passiveness bores him. So, from now on, you will fight him like mad
and he will get off on subduing you. Feel free to do whatever you’d
like to avoid him. I’m sure he can give you motivations if you
don’t fight hard enough.”

Anna looked at him with sad eyes. “Is this
all I’ve ever been to you, Master?” she whispered, not knowing
where the question came from.

His eyes narrowed. “What are you talking
about?”

“When I was younger, I thought you adored
me.” She swallowed. “Was it all a lie?”

She saw a flicker of emotion in his eyes and
then it was gone. “I did care for you, Anna. More than I should
have. But, this was my ultimate purpose. Why I claimed you at
birth. Why I....” He paused and studied her. “Why I killed your
parents.”

Anna's eyes widened and filled with tears.
Her mouth moved in shock until she strangled out her words. “You..?
You..? But....” She shook her head. “No, they crashed. Off the
bridge.”

Devin grinned. “Of course they did. A huge
SUV slammed into them and helped them off.”

Tears filled her eyes and she trembled.
“Why?”

“Because your father was beginning to get
suspicious. I couldn't allow him to take you from me. My plans were
already in motion. That, and it was time to start turning you into
a sex addict. Your whole life has been in my hands, Anna. From the
moment I met your mother I knew she was special. When she met your
father and married, I knew I had to take advantage of the
opportunity.” He gave her a wicked grin. “Don’t feel bad. I killed
my own parents as well.”

Anna stared at him in horror. Why was she
horrified? He had killed Ben in front of her. Why should it
surprise her to learn that he had killed her parents? He would kill
and do whatever it took to...do whatever he wanted to do. “Why?”
she asked again. “Why do you need so much power?”

Devin laughed. “You want me to soliloquize
like an evil villain? Tell you how horrible my father was? How my
mother neglected me? No, my mother loved me and my father was good
to me. But he was weak. The other Elders manipulated him into doing
things he knew were weak decisions, which would diminish the role
of the Elder. I detest weakness.” He looked at her. “You would have
been a strong woman, which is why it pleases me to see you beg and
plead and cry. To see you terrified when you look at me.” He stood
and rolled his eyes. “Fuck, I do sound like an evil villain.” He
turned her over and knelt between her legs. “Oh, well. Might as
well enjoy the moment.” She heard him unzip his pants and felt his
hard cock press against her ass hole.

“Please, Master. Don’t.”

He laughed and thrust forward, ripping her
open. Anna screamed in pain. He held her hair, pulling her head
back and ramming himself over and over into her bleeding hole, and
he didn’t stop until he shouted out his climax. He fell to her side
and lay on his back.

“Fuck that felt good,” he murmured and
caressed her ass cheek, making her wince in pain. “Go clean
yourself up,” he said, smacking her ass hard enough to leave a red
mark.

Anna limped to the bathroom and found a
washcloth, wet it, and pressed it against her torn opening. She
leaned forward and put her head down on the vanity and cried. How
quickly things changed.

Devin yelled to her from the bedroom. “Bring
a towel. I don’t want you bleeding on the bed.”

She grabbed a hand towel and limped back into
the bedroom. Anna saw Devin’s cock had drying blood on it. From
her. Was this what it would be like from now on?

He pulled her onto the bed with the towel
under her hips and then lay down between her legs. “Kaveh will be
here later, but I want a taste now.” He began eating her with a
fervor. He bit and sucked and licked. Occasionally he would bring a
finger down and tap at her sore hole, making her cry out in pain.
She struggled to get free and he held her arms down over her thighs
to hold her in place. He licked her until her skin was raw. Then he
stood and went into the bathroom.
