Riding Danger
them was half naked. All she had on was a pair of too tight shorts. Her ass cheeks hung out the back of them, and her bare breasts were enormous and obviously purchased.
     
    Blaine said, “Do not leave this room, do you hear me.”
     
    Felicity wanted to run and escape, but where could she go? There wasn’t anywhere to go. What was more, she had a feeling if she did try to leave, these two women would do something really bad to her? She sat still in the chair, trying to ignore both of them.
     
    The second woman was busy smoking a bowl of marijuana and drinking at the bar. She did not have any interest in Felicity at all. The half-naked woman saw her staring at her and said, “What are you looking at? Do you like girls? Do you want to touch me?”
     
    Aghast, Felicity cried out, “No!”
     
    The woman’s face turned dark, “Oh, so you think you’re too good to touch me. Is that it?”
     
    Felicity thought, This woman is twisting everything that I say!
     
    Instead, she stared at her feet, refusing to answer. From the kitchen she heard people laughing and talking, the sound of flesh hitting flesh in jubilant high-fives.
     
    Blaine came out of the kitchen, and he had a look on his face that told her that he was concerned. Not afraid, but concerned. She guessed why. The guys in the kitchen had just bought all that dope from him, but they might not be all that willing to let their money just walk out of the door, after all they already had possession of the dope.
     
    Felicity might not have gotten out much in the real world, but she had seen plenty of movies, enough of them to know that those kind of thing actually did happen. Double crosses took place in the dope world, and there really wasn’t any honor amongst thieves and dealers.
     
    Truthfully, Blaine was concerned. He had every reason to be and for the very reasons that Felicity had thought of. These guys knew exactly where that dope had come from. He knew that they would have to move it somewhere else — probably up to New York or out to Las Vegas.
     
    They would do so and they wouldn’t care about it because to them it was all profit. They had paid a ridiculously low price for the stuff, but it was enough to get Blaine where he was going and to help him do what was he wanted to do when he got there.
     
    He jerked Felicity up out of the chair and pushed her along in front of him. She wasn’t resisting, not this time. Blaine had a sense of his urgency, and she was feeling pretty anxious, as well.
     
    They got out the door and into the car safely. The entire time Felicity was on the verge of hyperventilating. As soon as they pulled away from the curb, Blaine said, “In three minutes were getting out of this car. Do you understand why?”
     
    “They aren’t going to let us leave with their money. They want the dope and they want their cash back, too.”
     
    “You might make a good gangster after all.” He sounded amused, and she shot him a filthy look.
     
    Her hands were still tied, and they were starting to really go numb. She held them out to him and said, “If I’m going have to run, you might want to untie me. I mean, it’s not like I know where the hell I am, and I don’t want to get shot at by a bunch of crazy drug dealers; so, you can bet I’m not getting too far from you.”
     
    “I can see that,” Blaine said, as he quickly stripped the scarves from her wrists. Pins and needles flooded into her fingers, and she whimpered, as she rubbed her hands together trying to restore feeling to them. “I’m sorry about that.”
     
    “I used to think that you were different than the rest of them, but you’re not.”
     
    Blaine said, “Yes, I am. Maybe I’m not any better, but I’m most certainly different.”
     
    He parked the car in a slot in a crowded bar and got out. Felicity didn’t need to be told to get out, as well. She did they went around the side of the building. They stood huddled by a door, Blaine ducking his head out
