receiver as though it were going to bite her. The thought of having to wait until tomorrow to find out if the woman on the machine knew her was not a happy one. It might turn out to be completely useless anyway; after all, she did not recognise the voice. Deep down she had hoped the sound of a familiar voice might have jogged her memory, ending this confusion.
Resigned to waiting they moved away from the phone. At least this way she had more time with her men, more time in their bed.
Maggie looked around the store, seeing what they had for sale. There was a bit of everything, including underwear, which she desperately needed.
Grabbing a basket, she stood and counted her money before walking around and buying the essentials she could afford. Glancing up at the shop assistant, she saw her watching again with some interest. Maggie wondered if she thought they were shoplifters or something. They made an odd little group, one woman with two attentative men.
At last she had gathered what she most needed, and went to pay. She looked at her credit cards, and wished she could remember the pin number because then she could have bought some chocolate too. Oh well, it would have to wait, being clean and fresh for her men was more important.
“Hi, there,” the shop assistant said, looking closely at Maggie.
“Hello. These please; I think I have enough cash.”
“Let’s see.” She began to total everything up. “Is everything alright with you?”
Maggie became more aware of the woman now, and saw her cast a glance at Aiden and Cyrus. “Yes. Everything is fine. Why do you ask?”
“Oh, I don’t know,” she answered a little nervously. “It’s a bit odd for folks to walk in. And I haven't seen you about this way before.”
“We came to use the phone.”
“I see.”
She was taking a long time going through the basket. Maggie wondered if she was trying to pass some time, she doubted there were too many customers coming this way today, and even less who would stand around and talk if there was bad weather on the way.
Cyrus began to shift around impatiently, and Aiden walked to the door to wait. At last, the shop assistant had bagged her purchases up and was giving Maggie her change. Out of the corner of her eye Maggie saw a car pull up outside, and a man wearing a suit get out. He did not bother to put a coat on despite the cold, and ran straight into the shop. Aiden moved out of the way for him.
“Maggie!”
Maggie turned around at the sound of her name.
“I knew it,” said the shop assistant.
“Knew what?” asked Maggie, confused.
“That you were the woman this guy has been looking for.”
Maggie turned back to the man in the suit. “Do I know you?”
“Yes. Oh yes, Maggie.” He moved forward and grasped hold of her, pulling her into his arms. Maggie froze, but she knew that both Aiden and Cyrus had moved in to defend her.
Maggie tried to push him away, saying, “I’m sorry. I don’t know who you are.”
The man in the suit frowned, and looked genuinely upset. “What's happened to you Maggie? He turned his glare firmly on Aiden and Cyrus. “What have these two done to you?”
Instantly defensive, Maggie said, “Nothing. They found me in the woods.”
“Then why didn’t they call the police. I’ve been looking for you everywhere.”
“Who exactly are you?”
“Maggie, please. Don’t play games, I know you’re upset with me, but this is taking it too far.”
“I don’t know who you are. I don’t remember anything.”
“Oh my god. And you didn’t think to take her to the hospital?” He was almost shouting now, looking at Aiden and Cyrus as if they were the scum of the earth.
The shop assistant stood watching the drama unfold, probably the most entertainment she'd had for weeks.
“Come on, Maggie. Let’s get you out of here.” He wrapped his arm around her shoulders and began to pull her towards the door.
