Emily Wakes and Takes the Necklace.

Emily stirred awake, slowly coming out her sleepy haze. She glanced over at the alarm clock next to the bed, squinting from its bright red light. It glowed into the darkness displaying 3:45 AM. Her memories of what had just transpired started to return to her. She remembered knocking on the door, merging with Nina and...having her first sexual encounter with her own step father. She felt her crotch grow hot thinking of her time riding him. But as she remembered, Emily was overcome with resentment towards her mother for forcing her to unmerge and worst of all keeping the necklace, and Daniel along with it.

She sat in the bed still half asleep for several minutes feeling sorry for herself and thinking about her situation. Emily desperately wanted to merge with her mother again. While unexpected and kinda weird, merging and reaping it's benefits was one the most rewarding things she had ever experienced.

*I wonder if everyone else is asleep?* Emily quietly got out of her hotel bed and slowly opened her bedroom door, taking special care not to wake anyone in her family.

Suddenly her index finger brushed against something hard and cold. Thinking about it possibly being the green emerald of the necklace, Emily grasped the object and pulled upward.

*Success!* Emily happily thought to herself, as she gazed at her prize. Despite the surrounding darkness, Emily could see the almost glowing green emerald in her hand and the golden chain dangling below it.

Suddenly Emily heard something behind her, causing her to nearly jump. She could see her mother stirring on the bed as a result of the noise. Slowly Emily turned around to see....
