Stefano hurried upstairs to her bedroom. He knew she won't go back there for a while and so he wanted to make sure the hidden cameras he installed there weeks ago, are still intact.He glanced at the bed, closing his eyes he could almost see her laying there, her body glitter with sweat, her lips parted in passion and her eyes closed with ecstasy.Her body was so alluring to him. He had wanted her since to moment he laid eyes on her, and now she was so close he could taste her, and this time he would not be denied what he had longed for, what he had dreamt of and thought about was overpowering him. His mind blinded by desire. Her heat, her essence wrapped around him until he thought he would explode.“Soon” he reassured himself “soon Marlena will be all mine.”She was watching the screen with tearful eyes, Fear shuddered through her. She had to go to him, she didn’t mind she was running out of time, John was much more important. Lifting herself to her feet, she ran downstairs into the dungeons.The door was open. Almost as if Celeste left it unlocked on purpose.“John!” she yelled and fell right next to him on the floor, her hands quickly placing his head on her thighs checking for a pulse. She found it albeit it was very faint. Tears began to form in the corners of her eyes again, “Oh John, what have I done? Come back to me honey, I need you..”.After what seemed like hours, John opened his eyes, his lids still heavy but he could see her, he could see she’s been crying. The last thing he remembered before Celeste injected him, was that Stefano was kissing her while holding her between his giant body and the wall. “Doc…,” he said, his voice sounded almost like a whisper. She jumped and looked at him, “Oh John...im sorry, I'm so sorry..” Marlena helped him to sit on the floor next to her, he wanted to hug her but he was too weak, his limbs felt like their weighing a ton. “Doc, it’s ok” he coughed “don't worry about me...what happened? I couldn't hear anything... I saw him touching you, I saw the bastard kissing you... I am going to kill him, so help me god” he growled, rage in his eyes. John looked at her, waiting to get a response but she didn't answer, she was ashamed. Ashamed he saw him kissing her, taking her clothes off and for what? For nothing..she’s a psychiatrist, how could she not think that this dosage would not be able to knock someone as big as Stefano. “Doc...Marlena..talk to me please..what did he want? What did he say to you? Are you alright?” he asked, his lips felt Numb, but he needed to know.“John, leave it..let it be” she blurted eventually “you need to rest, I can handle Stefano-”“Oh no Marlena,” he growled, knowing that she’s keeping something away from him, John knew he well enough to feel when she’s not being honest with him and right now, she wasn't.“If he so much as touch you again….if he’ll lay a finger on your body i’ll-” his words were cut off as he started to coughed vigorously, she got closer to him and put her hands on his back “I'm sorry John...don’t think badly of me... I know what I must do” she quickly kissed his temple and left without another glance. She knew what she needed to do, and John could never know.She sat on her bed. The bedroom was dimly lit. Marlena quietly sat there, like a convict waiting for his sentence. She gazed at the wall, her eyes found a spot and locked on it. She couldn’t think, she just wanted it to end, she hated to feel so helpless, so frightened.Suddenly, the door opened, and he walked in, wearing a silk Bordeaux robe. Smiling, so confident of her decision. “Marlena, I came for your answer” he got closer, and she stood up, wanting to stay away as possible as she can from the bed, she moved to stand against the wall. “Yes, I…” Marlena lowered her eyes to the floor.“Marlena, please, don’t keep me waiting.”“Yes, I will..let you have this night” she muttered.A sly grin spread on his face, and she already regretted her answer.“You will not regret this Marlena...I pride myself to be a passionate lover, well, many who-““ could we not talk about this..” she cut him off, couldn’t bear to hear him speak of it.“ of course, you are right. Let’s drink some wine, come” Stefano went to open the wine cabin she didn’t know was existed in her bedroom. He poured them a drink, and she gulped her wine in one sip. He came closer to her, on the way he locked the bedroom door and turned on the music player.She expected it to play Opera, but it was a slow, sexy, creepy song that gave her the chills

( “Angel”- by massive attack  ).
 

“You are so beautiful..” his hands slide up her arms until they reached her collarbone, he found the buttons of her blouse and undid them all. The song kept creeping in the background as he lowered his hands to undo her skirt, it fell to the ground. Marlena held her breath. This is as far as she went with him last time. He closed his eyes and inhaled her perfume. It was intoxicating, alluring and it smelled like vanilla and musk “ oh, Marlena.. you smell so good..your smell alone making me wild with desire for you” he reached to kiss her lips, she couldn’t do it and moved her head to the side. He smiled for a Millisecond, and then the smile faded, and he swung her around with his big two hands, she was now facing the wall, her cheek laying against it. He clicked his tongue and whispered in her ear  “no Marlena..tonight, you are all mine. You have no say in the matter. I call the shots now. You tricked me enough. No more” he nibbled her earlobe and yanked her wrists together behind her back. She was shocked. All the while she knew he was a monster, but she always knew he wouldn’t physically hurt her. Right now, she wasn’t so sure anymore, and it scared her to death. Her corset opened at the back, and he undid it quickly, it fell to the floor. Only her panties and white heels were on. She felt the cold wall on her breasts, and it sent a shiver throughout her body. Caressing her bare back he pushed himself against her, pressing her to the wall. His arousal pressing against the small of her back made her sick. He licked and sucked her shoulders, she could hear him moan, and she started praying that this would be over soon.

“Stefano, please..” she pleaded “please release my hands, you’re hurting me” she sobbed.

He smirked “ah, but you see, if I to release them, I won’t be able to do this” before Marlena knew what’s going on, she felt his hand on the front of her panties. “Stefano” she cried.

“Shhhh “ he whispered in her ear “ feel my fingers..feel my warmth..”

All she felt was sick, she closed her eyes in terror and inhaled quickly, doesn’t want him to hear her sobbed, she cried silently. He caressed her, she felt like a dream. He couldn’t believe this is actually happening. He dreamt of this moment so many nights in his bed and the moment is finally here.

All the while John was listening and watching the live feed. He was so weak and barely moved, but he was infuriating to “get away from her you Bastard!” He managed to yell. He heard her sobbing and couldn't take it.

Suddenly he saw Stefano pushing Marlena on to the bed.
