Page 26 of Her Sweet Surrender
After shutting the door behind them, she shook her head in astonishment.
Sir certainly is a devious one…
Brie was relieved to hear from Rytsar early the next day when he called to update them on the Lilly situation. They put him on speakerphone to hear what he had to share.
The first question that tumbled out of Brie’s mouth was, “Are you okay?”
“I knew you would worry despite my best efforts, radost moya.” Rytsar chuckled. “Da, I am fine.”
She breathed an audible sigh of relief, which made him chuckle even more.
“How did Lilly seem?” Sir asked.
Rytsar paused for a moment. “That is a complicated answer,moy droog. The woman is physically healthy, but as far as her mental state…”
“What?” he pressed.
“She has changed.”
“In a good way, I hope,” Brie said expectantly.
“Not exactly.”
Sir growled. “What do you mean?”
“You will be gratified to know she is no longer in love with you, comrade. In fact, she loathes you.”
Sir snorted. “Well, that’s a relief.”
“Da.”
“What’s the problem, then?” Brie asked.
“The creature has a new interest.”
Brie’s heart dropped. “Who?”
Rytsar coughed uncomfortably. “She has developed an attraction to the Reverend Mother.”
“Oh, my goodness!” Brie looked at Sir in shock.
“It has made it…umm…uncomfortable for the venerable woman.”
“I can only imagine,” Sir muttered. “What did Lilly say about her?”
“It’s not what she said. It’s what she’s done.”
“Oh, God…” Brie whimpered.
Rytsar snorted. “Do you really want to know,radost moya?”
“Of course.”
“Very well…the creature has been caught spying on the Reverend Mother and masturbating.”
Sir groaned. “Does her depravity know no depths?”
“Dr. Volkov believes it is a form of Stockholm Syndrome. Because the Reverend Mother runs the convent where she is being held and oversees her care, the creature has bonded with her.”
