Chapter 4
Tom could feel his stomach churn as Mynx reached out for his hand. The sleeves of her white beaver coat extended past her wrists to the base of the thumb. Tom knew the fur was tainted with her "love virus", and any contact would infect him. He wanted to run, but knew if he did Mynx would know he was on to her. He alone knew what was going on and it had to stay that way, for now. What would he do. What could he do.When her hand was just inches away from Tom's, his cell phone rang. Thank Christ. Tom immediately backed away and held up his finger to signal he would be just a moment. He stepped away from Mynx, or as she was calling herself, Jennifer Wilcox, and answered the cell.
"Hello?" Tom said. "Yes. Could you hold on one moment please."
He then turned to the Mayor Fleming and Chief Harding and said, "Will you excuse me please? I really need to take this."
"Of course" Mayor Fleming said. Mynx flashed an angry glare at Bob Fleming. A look of panic fell over Bob's face. He had just disappointed his one true love. It was too late however. How could he rectify his blunder.
The moment Tom left the mayor's office he bee-lined right for the elevator. The phone call was simply a friend asking about lunch, but it gave him the opportunity to escape. As soon as the elevator door closed Mayor Fleming burst through the door. He asked his secretary where Detective Irving was. When his secretary told him, he reluctantly turned to go back to his office, obviously distraught.
"Where is he?" Mynx demanded.
"Gone" Bob said sheepishly. He walked over to Mynx and dropped to his knees. "Forgive me, my love" he pleaded.
"Fool" Mynx snapped.
Police Chief Bill Harding had a look of puzzlement on his face. What's going on? Tom must have been on to something. He turned to Mynx and the kneeling mayor and announced, "If you will excuse me?", and headed for the door.
Mynx immediately stepped in front of him and said, "You're not going anywhere, baby?"
"Get out of my way!" yelled Bill. He walked up to her, took the back of his hand and pushed the beautiful blonde aside.
Mynx smiled mischievously and allowed him to pass. She knew when the back of his hand touched the beaver pelt she was wearing, he was hers. She watched him slow down as she took her place next to Beth sitting on the leather sofa. Beth placed her head on Mynx's furry shoulder, closed her eyes, and smiled dreamily. Mynx petted Beth and watched Bill struggle his way to the door.
And struggle he did. He used every ounce of will power to reach the door, but all he could think about was the gorgeous blonde on the sofa. Then he heard her velvet voice.
"Billy" She purred seductively. "Where are you going, darling? You don't really want to leave me now, do you? Hmm?"
Chief Harding froze. He turned to the owner of that irresistible voice. She was gorgeous. She was right too, he didn't want to leave. Her clear blue eyes seemed to reach out and draw him to her. He started to move toward her but stopped. What am I doing? I have to get out of here. He mustered all his strength and started to back away.
Mynx sat there smiling with Beth curled up next to her. Mynx stared straight into Chief Harding's eyes and slowly unbuttoned her silk blouse revealing her perfect breasts. Beth looked hopefully at her Mistress and licked her lips.
Mynx petted Beth and answered her silent plea. "No, no, my dear. Your turn is coming, but right now these are for Billy." Mynx then began teasing the nipple of her right breast and moaned. "Mmm ... If you want them baby, come to me."
Bill could feel his heart beating in his throat. Before he was even aware of what was happening, he was standing in front of the irresistible blue-eyed blonde. He didn't even remember walking over to her. She seemed to have total control of his body; and he loved it.
Mynx looked at the bulge in Bill's trousers. "Oh darling, that must be very uncomfortable. Beth dear, would you be so kind as to lower the chief's trousers and allow him some freedom?"
Beth obeyed immediately. He was hardly aware of Beth preforming her duty as he was consumed with the vision of loveliness before him. Beth removed Bill's underwear and his cock stood there eye level with Mynx's lips. Mynx took the sleeves of her coat and caressed the pulsating cock in front of her, rubbing in more of her "love virus".
"Doesn't that feel good baby?" She purred.
"Ye... Yea.....Yes, Mistress Jennifer" he confessed. "I.. I....I love you. I adore you. I am yours forever."
"Of course you are, darling. And by the way, the name is not
Jennifer. It's Mynx" she said triumphantly. "Now Billy, how about some
relaxation before I put you and the mayor to work." She released his
cock and drew him down to her breasts. He suckled them voraciously and
used his tongue to play with her ever hardening nipple. It was the
greatest pleasure of his life.
As Tom was leaving City Hall, relief was still a long way off. He
needed someplace to think, and think quickly. So much was going on in
his brain, he needed to sort things out. He got into his car and drove
to a nearby bar. He ordered a drink and sat in deep thought.
His thoughts turned to the events in the mayor's office. Thank God that call came in from his friend. It was just a simple invite to lunch but played itself perfectly in his feeble attempt to escape. Was Mynx aware that he was trying to escape? Probably not. How could she?
But escape he did, only to leave that bitch to her seductive enslavements. Oh, the mayor. How long had he been under her influence? And what about the Chief? If he wasn't enslaved, he sure as hell is now. How could he have just left him there like that? He took a long sip from his glass and forced his mind to concentrate on the problem at hand: What was to be done now?
For the present, he could not go to his office. He could not go home. He had to work in secret and have minimal contact with the department. That was not a problem, he was always considered a rogue. The lab that was working with the "love virus" was an independent bio-lab affiliated with the local university hospital. He told no one of their involvement. He needed to contact them. They had to hurry with the anti-virus. It was his only line of defense.
Tom did not get an exact date, but the upcoming "benefit" was when he
had to make his play. He was going to need assistance. Tom had friends
which were private investigators. He would cash in on some old
favors. He couldn't do this alone.
Two weeks later, Mynx was stretched out in her limousine. Beth was
sitting next to her holding a tall rectangular atomizer. Mynx turned
to her, lifted her face, closed her eyes and said, "Ready darling".
Beth sprayed a fine mist of the new compound all over her Mistress. Mynx could feel the tiny droplets absorb into her skin. The inside of the limo was filled with the sweet scent of jasmine. Mynx swung her head from side to side trying to gather in all the perfume she could.
Thank you, baby. Now for the test." Mynx leaned to the side and gave Mark, her personal chauffeur, instructions. She instructed Mark to drive them to the Stand Alone, the hottest nightclub in town.
"You are so clever, Beth. I'm so glad your mine" Mynx purred.
"Now and forever, my love." With that the two lovers kissed
passionately as the limo sped along.
The limousine dropped off the two ladies in front of the Stand
Alone. As they approached, the bouncer's nostrils filled with the
scent of jasmine, and he just stared at the approaching blonde. As she
approached, he stood in front of her and instinctively said, "$10
cover."
Mynx could see the effect of her perfume in his eyes and simply replied, "Look at me, darling. I'm gorgeous. Why oh why would you want to charge me? Just the honor of having me in your club would be payment enough, don't you think?"
The bouncer looked at this crystalline eyed blonde in her tight top and leopard skin mini. She was right. She was gorgeous. It would be an honor. How could I charge her? With that the bouncer stepped to the side and allowed Mynx to pass. As she passed, she turned to the bouncer, pointed at Beth, and announced, "She's free too, baby."
Mynx and Beth made their way to the bar. They noticed a young couple, an Asian girl and dark haired boy, probably in their early twenties. The girl got up to use the bathroom, which left the boy all alone. Perfect, thought Mynx.
As they maneuvered through the crowd, Beth noticed their faces as her Mistress passed close by and caught a whiff of her perfume. They looked dazed and confused, as if they were lost puppies awaiting guidance.
They sat down and looked around. Beth was making mental notes. The next phase of Mynx's plan would only be accomplished with a successful test of her new perfume. It was all Beth's idea; create a perfume which contained the same extract as her "love virus". The perfume however, was not designed to enslave, only to enrapture. It would make the wearer's suggestions irresistible to the infected person. And the effects were temporary, just as Mynx desired.
As Mynx sat next to the boy, she saw his head move back and forth as if trying to clear his head. Mynx leaned over to the dark-haired boy sitting next to her and whispered in his ear, "We would LOVE some champagne. Won't you buy us a bottle? After all, we are the two most gorgeous women in the room."
The boy's head was swimming. The perfume this woman was wearing was really sexy. He tried to avoid looking as not arouse the wrath of his girlfriend. But upon hearing her voice, he couldn't help himself. He turned directly into the waiting eyes of the most beautiful woman in the world. His eyes floated between Mynx and Beth. He was totally enraptured. He called the bartender over and ordered a bottle of champagne.
The boy's girlfriend returned to find her boyfriend pouring champagne for the two scantily dressed women.
"David, do you mind introducing me to your friends?" She snapped. Then she smelled this woman's heady perfume. It was making her dizzy.
The boy looked at his date and responded dreamily, " Not at all, Ann. These are the most beautiful women in the room. I was buying them champagne."
"I see" Ann was having a terrible time concentrating. Why couldn't she think of anything to say.
Mynx could see the confusion in the girl's eyes. "Ann, darling, don't be upset with him. After all who could blame him" Mynx suggested. "You know, Ann, I think you and my friend Beth would make a lovely couple. Why don't you ask her to dance? Who knows where it might lead."
Ann looked hungrily at Beth. She could feel herself getting moist. "Would you care to dance?" she asked hopefully.
"I would love to, my dear." Beth smiled at Mynx and walked over to the dance floor with the enamored Ann.
Mynx then called the bartender over to herself and the enraptured David. Within seconds the bartender was totally under the perfume's influence. "I am organizing a benefit in a week or so. I was wondering if you boys would like to contribute to a very good cause?"
"Of course, what's the cause?" asked the bartender. Like it mattered.
"Me", Mynx giggled.
David immediately took out his wallet and gave Mynx all his ready cash; $147.
The bartender grabbed his tip jar and handed it to Mynx. She laughed and said, "Darling, you can't expect me to carry around a jar all evening. Be a dear and cash in now. Large bills are fine." When the total count was done, the bartended handed her over $400 and change without batting an eye.
In the meantime, Ann was slowly recovering from the perfume's influence. What was she doing? Who was this woman, and why was she dancing with her? She shook off the final effects of the perfume and walked back to her boyfriend leaving Beth alone on the dance floor. Beth followed Ann back to the bar.
"We're leaving", Ann announced to her starry-eyed boyfriend.
"There's no need, we were just leaving ourselves. We have much to do. Thank you for the champagne. Come, Beth darling." And with that, the two women left the club, leaving David and Ann confused as to what just happened.
Once inside the limo, Mynx looked deep into Beth's eyes. "Oh baby,
that worked perfectly! Nothing can stand in my way now. In a little
more than a week, I will be rich beyond my wildest dreams. All because
of you, darling." Mynx then laid her back and made love to her all the
way home.
Tom entered the university bio-lab. He needed something, anything to
help counteract the affects of the virus. The benefit was tomorrow
night. Time was not on his side.
"Detective Irving, how are you?" asked Paul Malone. Paul was in charge of developing the anti-virus. He knew by the look on Tom's face he was pissed.
"Have you got it yet?" Tom blurted out. Tact was not his strong point.
"Well, I do have something but it hasn't been tested yet."
"I need it NOW, Paul!"
"Just 2 more days, that's all I need"
"I don't have 2 fucking days, you piece of shit. Just gimme what you got and I'll take my chances" Tom was losing it.
"But..." Paul saw Tom unholster his gun point it right at his head. "Over there, Tom. Jesus." Paul figured Tom would never have pulled the trigger, but didn't feel like staking his life on it either.
Tom went over to the adjacent lab table and picked up the untested anti-viral capsules. "How long do they last?"
"I don't know. There's no guarantee they will even work" Paul confessed.
"I'll have to take that chance."
Tom spent the remainder of the evening planning his raid on what was
known as the "Law Enforcement Community Benefit". With him were the
two private investigators he contracted to help him; Phillip Barker,
and Tony Whyte.
Because of Tom's extensive surveillance of the Ellis Chateau, he knew the habits of Mynx probably better than she herself knew. He knew when she was alone and where. He would use that knowledge to capture her and bring her to justice.
He was ready. His men were ready, and unbeknownst to him, Mynx was ready.
