Chapter 78


With his lips tasting hers, rational thought process diminished as sexual desire overrode Michael’s common sense. He should have remained more detached until he’d spoken to her ... asked her what Intel she had gathered during her time here. He knew he should have debriefed with Nikita first and told her everything that Section One had on Madame Cheung as well.


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Although their Intel was sketchy on her, Section knew she was a very powerful and influential member of the Rising Dragons triad and their suspicions pointed to a two pronged business that monopolised the market. In fact it was very rare that a woman was a member of a triad. The Rising Dragons had made an exception in her case. That spoke of the high regard in which they held her ... or was it her ruthlessness that they held in awe and what so impressed Sun Yee Lok? On the surface her high class escort business was a cover for a seedier underbelly of sexual slavery and prostitution. Due to her connectedness to the triad … few if any escaped and those who did were dealt with in the triad way ... death.

Had Nikita been able to gain Intel on Madame Cheung’s business affairs or had she been kept in the dark?

He should have told her that Madame Cheung was embroiled in both, even though he suspected that Nikita didn’t know to what extent. If she found this out, she would be hell bent on saving any girls who had been tainted by Madame Cheung and that could become an explosive proposition. Michael knew that she would move heaven and earth to right injustices and protect innocents by going off-profile to achieve her goals despite her mission parameters.

Would she want to hear the Intel on Jacques LeDeaux that he was in the business of procuring young woman by any fouled means for whoever was willing to pay the highest price?

Clearly the Rising Dragons had the finances to buy the young women that LeDeaux was able to provide. Although Section One was unaware of the depth of her involvement, it was evident that Madame Cheung was responsible for, or was planning to become involved in underage prostitution as well. She had propositioned him … believing Michael to be LeDeaux … for a business proposal when the weekend was over. She obviously saw Jacques LeDeaux as being integral in her business ventures and vice versa. Where there could be a connection or the opportunity for one she would grasp at it with both hands. Biding his time until she made a move could lead to Section One closing down those associated with her.

Had Nikita made the connection that Madame Cheung was the Mamma–sans the Asian, female equivalent of a pimp?

More than likely she was much feared by the girls who were in indentured servitude under the guise of being an exclusive escort. Most would be illegal immigrants forced to work in prostitution, usually against their will and generally in circumstances such that they felt they had no other choice. Many of the girls in the “business” would have been smuggled in from other countries … or bought by the triad from destitute parents, especially from impoverished provinces in Thailand and China to work there. The girls then became reliant on her trying to escape poverty, but without papers, they had no means of escape. Her promise of a job as models, escorts or even just a better life for them or their families never eventuated and that forced them into prostitution. Keeping the girls in financial debt by the triad, despite thinking there was a way out of their predicament by being lured by the illusion of riches resulted in the prostitutes unable to earn enough to pay off the debt. However, by then it is too late … they find that the only way out is no way out at all.

(Slightly suggestive)


Michael should have ... but ... he didn’t.

The sight of Nikita after an absence of more than a month was the only catalyst he needed to push him beyond the Section Michael and reveal the man beneath. Michael’s thoughts and emotions overwhelmed him when he had closed the door. He had missed Nikita … missed her laughter … her sparkling eyes … her voice ... he’d missed everything about her. Michael had felt her absence more than he was willing to say.

He couldn’t restrain himself any longer … and ... he got his answer … Nikita couldn’t either.

Slowly rotating his hips against her, his fingers traced a line from Nikita’s collarbone down her décollage to the curve of her breast with a touch so enthralling that she nearly forgot to breathe. Silky smooth to the touch, Michael caressed her tantalizingly back and forth. Feeling the brush of his fingertips on her bare skin was like heaven. Gentle strokes trailed downward until his hand came to rest lightly on her ribcage. Wherever his fingertips stroked, electric currents coursed through her body making her skin tremble with desire. Nikita inhaled deeply impatient to feel more.

Michael’s breath was shallow too. Leaning in, his lips fanned her mouth making her heart skip a beat. His teeth lightly scraped against Nikita’s tongue. He nipped gently then withdrew from her lips only to return once more with greater fervour. Michael toyed with her mind and Nikita’s body succumbed to his touch. There was nothing rational about how she felt, because what she felt was overwhelming her senses ... all she could do was feel. Nikita was on the verge of capitulation. Winding her arms around his head she pulled Michael closer to her willing mouth begging for him to deepen his kisses.

However, before he could advance their intimacy any further, his comm. unit buzzed to life with the sound of Operations’ voice.

“Michael? … Michael!”

“Aaarrrgghhhh!!!!” Nikita moaned against his soft lips.

Michael closed his eyes. With Operations’ voice echoing in his Comm. Unit, he broke from their embrace ruing that Section One had once again managed to diffuse a long awaited intimate moment between them.

Nikita managed to open her eyes while her dreamy gaze glanced at Michael’s face. Breaking from their caress, she saw the regret in his eyes. She buried her head on Michael’s shoulder disappointed that this call had come before things had progressed any further. Sadly Nikita moved away from temptation knowing that the interruption from Operations had changed the mood and broken the spell.


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Slowly and very reluctantly, with his heart beating faster than normal, Michael composed himself before answering. The voice belonged to Section One Michael. This was the man that Operations heard answering not the man who had set her heart a fluttering.

“Yes sir?”

“Do you have anything to report?”

“We’ve created a bridge.”

“With Madame Cheung?”

“Yes.”

“She’s convinced you’re LeDeaux?”

“Yes.”

“Excellent … Any sign of Sun Yee Lok?”

“No, but I’ll need to debrief with Nikita.”

“Good ... she may have new Intel.”

“It’s possible.”

“Yes … It’s just a matter of time. He’ll eventually want to set up a meeting with LeDeaux.”

“Is that all sir?

“One other thing … Intel says that Sun Yee Lok doesn’t know what Jacques LeDeaux looks like.”

“That will be to our advantage.”

“You’re right! First team ... you’re on your own. Report back again Michael when you have more Intel.”

“Of course.”


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


Section One always seemed to have some type of inbuilt radar where they were concerned. The interruption from Operations had been just when they’d nearly reached a point of no return. So many times this had happened to them … the seduction … the surrender … the interruption … then the change of mind. Nikita had always marvelled at Michael’s ability to regain his composure so quickly after such a heated moment, especially when she always struggled with her feelings of need.
She felt that way now. Sitting in a winged chair while Michael spoke to Operations, Nikita watched him respond to Operations’ questions with a heavy heart. All that remained of the Michael who had overwhelmed her was his flushed skin and dilated pupils.

What would happen when he had finished the conversation? Would they start off where they had been interrupted or would things cool down? They had separated from their embrace and Michael had spoken with calm resolve as if nothing had happened. Except … something had happened that could not be denied and it was something that she yearned to continue.

But would they?

Nikita could only but hope so.
