Now I stand in the shadows as you beg Irons for his help. Your lover, Conchobar, has been kidnapped. No one is willing to help you and the only chance of ever recovering your lover safely is by turning to a man you despise the most. I can feel the frustration and desperation as you beg again for help. I can hear the anger in Irons� voice as he recalls you rejecting him before.

�I�ll accept it now, if that�s what you want.�

My head snaps up as I begin to clench my hands into fists so tightly that my knuckles are already turning white. *NO! SARA! Please don�t* I silently scream in my mind.
It felt like time had slowed as I wait in anticipation for Irons� answer. I see his face inching closer. My mind races as thought of his lips on yours. It took all of my control not to leap over the balcony to come to your aid.

�No Sara.�

�That�s not what I want. I want the pleasure of rejecting you. As you once rejected me.�
I had not realized the breath I�ve been holding until I let it out in a sigh of relief. I relaxed my body, yet it screams out from the stress of standing frozen in place, my hands begin to throb from squeezing them so tightly. I watch as you storm out of the den.

At that moment I had realized my true destiny. I was not given this life to serve Irons. I was given this life to serve you and the Witchblade. Sara, all you have to do is ask and we could be inseparable. In the distance, beyond my revelation I can hear Irons approaching.

The coldness of his hand on my face and the sudden jerk of my head tell me his mood. I stare into his hollow eyes, his voice full of venom.

�Do not return home without the Witchblade.�
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now I stand here in the darkness, contemplating on my part in keeping you safe. I hold in my hands, the bag of money these kidnappers had asked from you, and the weapons I�m going to use to protect you and your lover. Though Irons only order was not to return home without the Witchblade, he did not say that I was unable to help you.
Irons command was simple but it held a lot of meaning. He had gone weary with you my Lady. He was going to take the chance that you and your lover not surviving.

The sound of your voice breaks my train of thought and brings me back to reality. Apparently you tried to trick the kidnappers with counterfeit money. Yet, I know for sure they would not care of it were real or not. They had wanted your lover, Conchobar, because he is the brother of Edward Dougherty, well known terrorist in Ireland. They had wanted revenge and Conchobar was going to pay for it with his life.
