Nine: Strip
Ezekiel was aware of her presence when she entered. Though he didn't see her, he knew that she was already here. He turned around. He looked at her with an expressionless gaze which made Monalissa's hair stand on end. She looked at herself. She didn't know how but her mouth moved in its own and she began explaining.
"It was a lady downstairs that said that you wanted me all dolled up". This was the longest sentence she had said after so many years.
Ezekiel advanced towards her and she stepped back. He kept advancing and she kept moving back till she was backed against the wall. He was at such proximity and Monalissa could feel his devilish gaze eating her up. He wanted to kill her.
Did he want to kill her when she was looking this pretty? What was his plan?
She couldn't think of anything. She couldn't even tell what he was thinking. Just when she was lost in thoughts, she heard his deep voice say those five letter words to her.
"Strip".
Oh no! Explosives went off in her head. What was this devil saying? The urge to knee him in between his legs came but she pressed it down with all her might. She had to calm down. She really had to.
She looked up at him, her eyes filled with question marks. "Why should I?" She asked as soon as her stubborn ego kicked in. She wasn't going to succumb to him. He was her enemy.
Ezekiel ignored her. "Should I do it myself?"
Monalissa clenched her fists and ground her teeth hard, trying to calm herself down. She hated this situation. She wished she had actually died with her comrades. A sharp pain coursed through her whole body as she gasped. She glared at him and lowered her head to bite him.
Ezekiel saw through her actions and grabbed her delicate neck. He squeezed it hard and pinched her hard on her nipple. This act last for two minutes. Then, he left her. Monalissa fell to her knees as the devil had already sucked the remaining life out if her.
"You're a devil!", She cursed her hoarse voice laced with raw contempt.
"Did you just realize? I'm the devil himself".
" Now, strip. This is my last warning ".
Monalissa could only resign to her face. She wasn't going to beg him. He wasn't her god. She wasn't going to explain anymore. She was really angry!
She stood and stared him straight in the eyes. The hazel and deep blue orbs locked in a challenge. Monalissa wound her fingers to the zipper of her dress and zipped it down. She let it fall from her body leaving her only on her underwear. She then stood. Her eyes not leaving his. It would have been a seductive atmosphere but between the two people in this study, it was unconcealed wrath and hatred that existed.
Ezekiel didn't mind the look in her eyes. "Those off too".
Monalissa nearly bit her tongue. Oh no! Damn you Mr Kaiser! She did as she was told. She felt so exposed and scared. She was trembling. Though she tried to hide it, he could still see it.
"Come over here". He said.
Monalissa walked in her nudes towards him, her heart tightening with each step she took. She stood in front of him and kept looking at him, in his eyes. She was cursing him in her heart but didn't voice it out. She felt her legs move and before she could comprehend what was happening, she was hoisted unto the desk, her back facing him. She could feel his ruthless gaze on her, exploring each and every corner of her body.
She wondered what he was planning on doing. Was he going to rape her? What was he going to do? Something hard poked her from behind, jolting her back to the present.
What was he doing? When she got the hint of what he wanted to do, she began struggling but, the devil was stronger.
Ezekiel saw her writh her body, trying to free herself from from his grip. He sneered at her and yanked her hair backwards. He lowered his head to her ear and whispered,
"You're pure? Till I'm done, let's see how you can keep up with your purity".
Holy molly! She screamed in her head.
