Chapter 52
Smoke from a Cuban cigar swirled around the Senator Jefferson Anderson’s crystal chandelier as he stared at a signed painting of Kees van Dongen’s Le Coquelicot.
“Honey, what's wrong?” said Penelope. “I am sorry, I was just thinking,”
“What are you thinking of my lover?” The Senators smile quickly faded to trepidation as he remembered the horror that he and Miss. Baggins endured at the hands of a know terrorist named Martinez.
“Nothing, just enjoying this lovely painting.”
“Don’t bullshit me senator, that lie may work on other Senators, but it’s not working for me. Are you thinking of that strange man in the wheelchair again?”
The Senator relived the moment he looked into the cold, dead eyes of a phantom from his past. Animosity and anxiety filled the Senator’s heart as he remembered the face that has lurked in his nightmares for the past forty years. A ghost of a man he once called a friend has sudden reappeared.
“Honey, Why did those men try to kill us? Do you know who they are?”
The Senator was a crafty politician skilled at manipulating everyone, but when it came to telling his lover, Penelope Baggins, a lie he was helpless.
For years, Senator dreamt of the day he would be able to hold Miss. Baggins in his arms. Jerry couldn’t help but love the women of his dreams. Penelope’s long flowing hair, hypnotic eyes and curvy body bewitched the senator’s mind.
“The man in the wheelchair was a dead man from my past. He brutally killed my friend in an attempt to procure a treasure that he thinks I posses,” the Senator confessed as he stared into the eyes of his lover.
“Come over here baby, I will vanish away your fears.”
Penelope’s smile seduced the Senator back into her loving arms. When the Senator encroached upon his lover’s side, he paused for a moment to gaze upon Penelope’s ravishing naked body stretched across a his sofa. Jeff was tantalize and aroused again as he caressed her sexy legs and her voluptuous breast. Her warm smile and luring eyes enthralled Jeff into Penelope’s loving brace. The warmth of her body dissolved the Senator’s fears while her smoldering lips disseminate his apprehension. Penelope’s soft touch compelled the couple into a lust filled intimacy for the rest of the night.
