even be at the party to celebrate her marrying THAT man.
    Instead of going and standing outside of Jo’s window like he did every night this night he went and waited outside of Katherine ’s window. Ha ving been in and out of the house enough he knew th em well enough to know that Katherine had her own room and it drove her husband insane that she never shut her window at night and if it happened to be closed she always failed to lock it.
    Patiently he sat outside of the window envisioning what he was going to do to her as he watched her undress herself and brush her hair singing a happy tune. W hen her light went out he went around the house to check that everyone else appeared to be asleep so he would have a better chance to not be disturbed. It took another hour after that for him to fully formulate his plan and then he climbed up the trellis outside o f her window and snuck into Katherine ’s room.
    Sneering as he watched Katherine sleep he went to her chest of drawers to get the items that he would need. One of the things he loved about all of these high class women was that they kept everything in almost the same place in every house. It did n o t take him long to find some strong string that she kept spare for her corsets and a scarf.
    He stalked over to Katherine’ s bed and slipped a potion between her lips that when she would wake would keep her groggy enough to keep her from being able to fight a bit and then wrapped the scarf around her head and tied it so that her mouth was captured tight enough that she would n o t have much of a chance to scream. Katherine began to wake up to but was drugged too much to fight as she wondered who was there.
    Next thing she knew a rope was being wrapped around her wrists tying them together above her head to the headboard. Katherine shuttered as a man’s hand slipped up her nightgown soon followed by the feeling of a cold metal blade that then sli t through the fabric making a tearing sound that sent shivers up her spine as the cold began to hit her bare skin.
    He smiled down at the sight of Katherine ’s bare skin and her wide open eyes filled with terror. He went to the nightstand and lit a single candle so he could better see her. Never before had he dared let one of his victims see him. The knowledge that Katherine would be unable to tell anyone of what she saw therefore provi ded him with the full ability to have light which excited him. This would be the first time he would get to see his victim not just feel her.
    “I bet that you were n o t expect ing to see me here were you?” Katherine attempted to respond but the scarf covering her mouth prevented her from getting out more than a feeble mumble.
    “Well, because I am a rational man I suppose that I can tell you that I am here to make you pay for giving away the only women that I love to that man . Josephine should be mine and I know deep down that you really know that.” Katherine attempted to mak e a sound of contradiction. She did n o t agree to anything that he was saying.
    “I assure you that without you around that I will be able to finally get what I want.” Katherine did her best to ask; How. It did not escape hi s notice that she wanted a reason so he decided that it would not hurt to tell her what he thou ght her crimes were.
    “I am sure that without you whispering in her ear that she should be with Mr. Kinsley that I will be able to persuade her away from him and she will finally be mine. All it is going to take is a little time… Well, that and the disposal of you and you r incessant meddling. ”
    At tha t he went to work on Katherine doing with her what he wanted against her will. He had debated back and forth on whether he wanted to rape her but then decided that seems how he planned on disposing of her he deserved to have a bit of fun. He felt that she at least owed him that bit of fun before she was out of his life and out of his way forever.
    When he was through he went about cutting and
