Bill kept screaming and he was now clutching his side in sheer agony. Kiara didn’t know what to do but one thing was certain: they couldn’t stay in texas any longer. She left Bill for a moment as she rushed to the bedroom to grab her pj’s and her phone. She checked the time. It was just pass 2 am. Sunrise would be in about 5 hours. It would mean cutting things close but it was doable. As she returned to Bill’s side she slid on her pj pants, going commando for the time being and slipped on her pj top. She dialed a number as she pulled Bill to her chest, rocking him gently to try and soothe what she couldn’t soothe.
“Yes this is Miss Griffen…I’m calling about the open ticket departure for myself and Mr William Compton… yes that ticket… when is the next flight to Louisiana?” she asked as she spoke to one of the personnel at Anubis Airlines. She was glad that she’d decided to pack their things early in expectance of Bill wanting to leave.
“Yes yes… that’s fine, please send the hummer, two personnel and 3 security guards as well… yes I’ll cover all charges” she said sternly. Bill was still crying out in agony which made her wince.
“… Yes yes immediately please.. and prepare one travel coffin just in case” she added. She nodded a few times before hanging up. She set the phone down and held Bill up.
“Come on love… up we get… we’re getting out of here ok?” she said, trying to see if she could talk Bill out of the pain trance he was in. It took some doing but she managed to get him back unto the couch, laying down, but at least off the floor. He still writhed in pain but it seemed to be diminishing at bit. Without wasting any time she took he mother’s hand made dress and put it back into the dress bag it came in before very gently setting it by the door. In a matter of minutes she brought out all the luggage they had brought, which hadn’t been much to begin with. She began to pack up all the synthetic blood they’d brought in the special suitcase Bill had gotten. Eventually everything was by the door. She sat back by Bill, touching his cheek.
“Stay with me baby… not long now” she said as he just shook in terrible pain. After about 10 minutes there was a knock on the door and she let in the two Anubis Air staff to take their bags downstairs. She had one guard help her half carry Bill as well while the other two guards kept point.
Soon they were inside a large black hummer. She was taking no chances since she knew Isabel would expect them in a limo. With this armored truck there was little she could do against him. She kept checking the time and urged the driver to step on it as they had to make it back to Bon Temp before the sun rose.
What seemed like forever, but was only another 20 minutes they arrived at the small private airport. With a sense of urgency and several stacks of hundred dollar bills they bypassed security and made it to the hangar where two Anubis planes waited. One was the small jet they had come with from Bon Temp, the other was a more standard size airplane. She saw personnel loading up the small jet. As she got out and helped Bill out who seemed completely out of it she smiled.
“Great…we’ll be taking that one” she said, pointing to the other plane no one had set up. They looked at her curiously and she rolled her eyes “Time is money people… the more time you waste the less money you’re getting”
That got their attention as they took all the luggage out of the small jet and into the large airplane. She grinned. This would ensure that no one would have the time to tamper with the airplane as well. She was going to let most of her paranoia guide her tonight. She would not breathe easy until Bill was safely tucked into bed back at the mansion. It took another hour for the plane to be fully ready. Again with the help of the guards they got Bill inside. She placed him on one of the lavish 1st class seats which could recline all the way back to beds. She took the seat next to him and in a few minutes they were soon taxying down the runway and up in the air.
She took a deep breath the moment the pilot said they had reached cruising altitude. At least a few hurdles had been cleared. She focused now on Bill who had not said a word and had gone from screaming in pain to a more catatonic state.
“Bill… darling you need to feed” she said as she had one of the attendants warm up and bring her a bottle of royal blood. She would slice her wrist open if needed but maybe some food in his system would help him snap out of it.
