Lady Slayer
Chapter 11
“Come here…”
Tina laid her head on Bette’s shoulder as she finally allowed the emotions of the past two days to spill free…
Bette held Tina close, her eyes wandered across the surface of the ocean as her head and heart digested the words that Tina had said to her.
To say she had been surprised at the words would be a slight understatement, she was perplexed at the way in which the whole statement came out from Tina, the whole relationship history spilling forth in just a few minutes, and finishing that she was still ‘technically’ married…
She wondered why Tina had felt the need to tell her all of it right there and then…, she needed to process that, just think about Tina and what it may have meant to be telling her, rather than saving it for ‘another time’…
Did she think she had a chequered past…? No…, not at all… Bette was just digesting all the information in the short space of time it had been given to her.
But married…, fuck; she didn’t see that one coming…
But then again, she had no ideas at all about Tina’s past or sexuality, the only clue, that wasn’t really a clue… a kiss and that feeling that kept invading her own body…
Did a woman, who was straight, have such a casual comfortable ness around her if there wasn’t that ‘click’ that they had spoken about, she wasn’t sure it would have been the same…, and that was the only thought that had passed through her mind, and it was passing, she hadn’t had time to sit and think about it all properly.
Just the turmoil she found herself in, the turmoil Tina had left her in and that was perplexing and unnerving in its self.
Tina’s tears subsided, her heart calmed its beating and her head felt lighter.
Tina felt the arm around her shoulders pull her in tighter, she felt how Bette rest her chin on top of her head, and she felt, rather than heard, the sigh…, it was almost a letting go sigh…, one of those ones that you gave when you have been holding something inside for so long and finally…, you can let it go…

That was very, very nice. Love the way you write, Jo. Thanks
gee oh man, am i really first, well that was a bad place to stop,(for me anyway) thanks for the story keep it going please. Md
what happened to my comment. Oh well I thought I was first. Anyway good story, thank you. md
I liked this chapter. It set forth the answers to a lot of my questions. I’m glad that Tina seems to be realizing what she has with Bette could be better than anything in her past. Glad she doesn’t seem hung up on either the husband or the third party. Her trust in people has been shaken. Hopefully Bette can prove to her that faithful people do exist. I hope they get some happier moments coming up. Not that this wasn’t happy.. but it was like angst ridden happiness.
Well, love your writing and it seems you always mention Bette and her Levi’s.
You never cease to amaze me. Love where this story is going. Hope Eric doesn’t show up, cos I get the feeling Bette would definitly go into alpha mode. Finding out his whereabouts is okay though. Heck I would love to put my hands in those back pockets. So glad to see Bette listening.
Beautiful, I just hope that sleezeball of a husband doesen’t come into the picture and start some mess.
Incredible descriptions and narrative per usual. I think the caliber of your writing is taken for granted b/c you seem to write so effortlessly. The phrases flow together seamlessly. It’s always a pleasure to read your work. PPS.
Another wonderful chapter from you, Jo, although “wonderful” is not only an understatement, but a pleonasm… Humour and drama rolled together with mystery and intrigue are always a great combination… Oh my, I think I’m going to end my rambling here for this sounds like a review for a best selling thriller novel. Yet, one thing I can say : even besides the fact that you have this amazing hability to make your characters at the same time so fascinating and so endearing ; no matter the scenery, no matter the mood of the protagonists, no matter the atmosphere, no matter the circumstances, your stories are always filled with intense emotions… Emotions that tend to overwhelm us ( overwhelm us in a incredible, positive way ), and this doesn’t happen very often – at least, definitely not with that many authors – and this is perhaps what appeals to most of your many faithful readers… Anyway, once again thank you so much, Jo !
I love your writing and more specifically the confliction in bette’s emotions :D Very nice. Post soon x
Very very good Jo, really enjoying this story. Happy they have had a chance to talk and shake out the demons, so to speak, at least for Tina. She needs to know that Bette will be there for her and not run away. And above all else, love her, no matter what. PPS
Thanks for posting. I love when Bette’s protective streak comes out.
Wow Jo your writing is exquisite. You leave me breathless from the emotions your words evoke in me. Thank you so much for writing!
***Sigh*** That was wonderfully written. Thank you.
So easy to get lost in your beautiful writing…
I lurve this story…
No, the rock is hard, the sand, or the bed is soft. I think that’s where they should go next.
Hey, get you, you just won another fan fic award. Congratulations!
So amazing. I just can’t get enough of this story. I wouldn’t mind having my hands in Bette’s pockets either!
LOL of course you make her head spin mate…umm I’m gonna shut up now LMAO. You know Ed’s opinion about this post, the story in general AND the awards!!! xx
Bette took the news a lot better than I thought that she would. I am glad that they talked more about it. Eric really did screw up Tina’s brain if she was cheating on him. I wonder who started sleeping with this woman first, Eric or Tina. I would lay my money on Eric and that Tina was set up. Okay I could be totally wrong, just a thought.
YAY!!! A gold star for me… I repeat: YAY!!! LMAO… thank you, Jo. Still, something tells me that I’m not the only one who caught the reference to the rock. Another beautiful chapter… and a sigh of letting go… mmm, breathtaking. You wrote that so well. Congrats on the award, Jo. You deserve every one you get. Thanks!
I don’t know if I would have been so forgiving and from experience I wasn’t.Then again my situation was different from the one in this story.I liked how you show in this story that both characters have flaws and a misconception of themselves.Good job Jo as always.
delightfully delicious interactions!!!
Damn thats good!
And here I was thiking that there couldn’t be anything in the world better than seeing Bette Porter in Levis… Well, you just proved me wrong! … Please tell us T, how does it feel?… Congratulations Jo, I didn’t think that was possible, but you just rose up a notch in the whole Levis fantasy!… Won’t go into much detail about this story cause everyone said it all, but I just wanted to say that I love the fact that you keep surprising me when I least expect it, and that you have this talent at making things flow so naturally between them even in the most complex situations… That chapter is a perfect illustration of that. I’m struggling a bit with what I’m trying to explain, so I’ll just leave it at that. Maybe I’ll do better next time. Anyhow, thanks a lot!
I just now got caught up. lol Grats on the award!
Exquisite! .. and Congrats on the award!!! :-)
Head spin eh? In a good way babe… :))
Congrats on the award Jo! Love this story and hope you have been duly inspired by the outporing of support!
