[ log; ongoing ] jezebel & megumi - truth and deceit
When; During the kidnapping
Characters; Jezebel Disraeli [![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
deadlyhealing] & Megumi [roseblooms], possibly Alexis [maitre_de_carte]
Rating; G-PG.
Summary; Megumi ends up facing Jezebel and tries to find a way to escape.
Two days. Counting them off didn't make them pass any more quickly, nor was it easy in this state at all to really focus. She was tired, thirsty and she could feel her magical energy growing weaker in a state where she was in such limited contact with water.
He'd done his homework, she'd give him that. Her hands were handcuffed to the bedposts of the room in the flat, and while she had a maid attending to her needs, such a prone position to be in was not something she liked, and struggling had only served to injure her. She was healing, slowly-- but so disconnected from her family, she wondered if anyone would ever be able to reach her. It was only fortunate that she'd managed to get her message sent out before Alexis knocked her out, but what good would it do if they couldn't find her? She had to keep her shields up, so that Alexis couldn't use her hair again-- so far, so good, he'd been unsuccessful at getting them by the root and that was her only relief here. She'd forced herself into a seated position, keeping herself calm-- it wouldn't do to tire herself out after all. The bruises had almost faded from around her neck and shoulders, and she was thankful for that at least.
Her eyes though, remained closed as she sat there on the surface of the mattress. She had to focus-- her friends would have things taken care of, but they wouldn't be able to find her here. And she had to find a way out before she reacted and hurt someone who shouldn't -be- hurt by her hand. Just how that would be, she still had to decide-- but she would do it.
And she swore Alexis would pay for this humiliation. There was no turning back now.

However, the mention of Cassian did make her lower her guard just briefly enough-- and she sighed, looking away for a moment.
"He lived with me for a while," she replied as she thought back to him. They never did get along on the surface, but she recalled him repaying her generosity in his own way as it stood. "He thought highly of you. Enough to put his life on the line for you as well..." She looked back up at him, a hint of regret in her eyes.
"Enough to work for you without question. That kind of loyalty, I can't betray. Not to him. Not after he kept my family protected from Alexis."
She hinted at the fact that Cassian and her had probably acquainted themselves a lot more than one would think and she looked up at him, willing him to believe her.
Her arm tensed even as she attempted to keep her expression neutral.
"It's not me I'm worried about, Doctor. It's you and what Alexis will do when he finds this out. Will it be worth it?"
