Reaper's Word
Chapter 18: Kiss Me Like You Mean It
"Sit." Isaiah ordered her and she sat down next to him as he indicated. "I will play, you will sing until I say it is okay for you to stop."
"Yes." She said. Clair took a deep calming breath. She wanted to get up and run, but where was she going to go? She wasn't ready to reveal what she could do. She was saving that for a desperate time. Right now she was given an obvious chance. She was sure that his talents were stronger than hers. He started a song and she was grateful that she knew it and waited until the right note to start.
She was relieved that her voice didn't crack and that she hit all the notes perfectly. She didn't think he would enjoy someone who sang badly. She didn't think that her voice was all that amazing. She was very self-conscious and never sang in front of anyone but her music instructor. Though he had constantly been at her to sing in concerts with the band.
Clair sang through several songs before she had to ask if she could have a drink. Her throat was dry and sore. He let her, Beta seemingly came from nowhere carrying a bottle from the kitchen. She didn't know how they communicated but it was eerie.
Beta sat on her side of the bench and watched them as he played and she sang. He seemed pleased by it and moved to go and lay down after a while. Clair was starting to fight to stay awake. She'd been up the whole day and now the night. Not to mention her nerves were shot with being watched and next to Isaiah.
"You need sleep." He stated and she nodded. He stood and motioned for her to follow.
"Beta." He called and Beta got up and followed after them. Clair thought that she heard others moving down the hall fast away from them.
"Apparently you have some that enjoy your voice. It was calming and hopeful to them." She saw that he was amused by this.
"It wasn't too bad." She supplied keeping her gaze down.
"You have a very lovely voice Clair. Just like your talent to draw. You are very complicated and have yet to disappoint me. I like the puzzle you are."
"That is a relief." She said meaning it, though not meaning to say it. He gave a kind of laugh and she looked up as they passed the glass staircase and into the hall beyond it. He stopped in front of the door there. Taking hold of her shoulders he placed her back to the door. He let go of her and put his hands on either side of her head.
"Now," He said looking at her and she glanced at Beta who was sitting watching. "You will stay in this room. There is only one way out and in. You are a very hard human to track down. I'm not in the mood for you to slip away on me."
"I thought you liked a challenge." Clair stated feeling bold.
"Don't push me." He responded though he was amused by her comment. "Beta will be staying with you just to make sure you don't meander off." He said and she paled a little. Waking a little more.
"With me? Not outside?" She asked, sounding a little panicked. He gave a smile that he felt.
"With you. I don't trust you because I know your talent to slip away." He wondered at that talent. Was she just that lucky or was it something else?
"Oh, and tomorrow?" She asked.
