Hunnie



I lay on the bathroom tiles, staring off into space. This isn't what I want anymore. This isn't a life I chose to live. After everything we had been through, and he chooses to keep a woman he marked accidentally. As if what I say doesn't matter.


Too scared and helpless to leave the bathroom. I couldn't face Bahm. My body shivered alone. I couldn't face the demon he had become.


Unrecognizable to my eyes and heart. When did I start to lose him? During the slaughter of the council members, or after I rejected him this whole time?



Tears rolling down my face as it had been these past few minutes. I sniffle and lay there with my face wet and snots covering my nose.


"Psst! Psst!" Hearing hissing, I lift my head to see a gloved hand reaching in with a stick to turn push on the sink.


I sat up quickly. Bahm's shirt Getting stuck under my knee. I wiped my cheeks and nose quickly. Who's out there and why are they gloved?



Hearing the hissing noises again, I drag my self near the showers and lift myself up. Gripping onto the glass door handles.



A hooded figure stands outside, I see their head jumping up and down.  I walk over to the sink, pain radiating up my back and I stand on my toes, sticking my head out the window to see it's Anna. She's standing on a garbage barrel, wearing black silky gloves and she removes her hood.




"Shh!" She says.
"Whisper as low as you can."


I nod, looking behind me at the closed bathroom door. Slowing down the thumping my heart was doing.


She comes closer to the window, standing on her toes as well. "I was passing by again, and could hear your heart beating rapidly. Are you ok?" I was surprised by what she said. Was my heart beating that bad that even she heard it?



"No." I sobbed. "I'm scared of him." A tear runs down my face and Anna puts her hand up for me to calm down.


"Come to my Kingdom. You will be safe there. He can't teleport there." She says, and I didn't understand how he couldn't, but I agreed.



"How will I get there? Do you know magic too?" I asked. Wondering how else I could leave this place unrecognized.



"No. I'm just a vampire." She whispers quietly. Enough for me to hear as we were only inches apart.



"I can give you a direct spell to open a portal to my castle. It closes quickly, three seconds." She places her hand on mine, on top of the windowsill.

Sparks aligning all through out my body making me shiver and the hairs on my arms raising.

"But you must act normal Miss Hunnie. Bahm can sense if you form ideas to run away. I'll send a small bird with a scroll to your location."



"How will you know?" I ask her, convincing to myself that this spell will work and could be my ticket out forever. A place where he can't teleport to!




"My nose is just as good as Bahm's." She nods and pulls her hoodie back over he head and rubs my hands before leaving.



She leaves and reality starts to hit me. The room becoming dizzy and there's a cold lingering in the air.

I'm sorry Bahm. I can never make you happy and accept another woman. I just can't. Not after everything I have been through in my life. I thought you would be mine again, thought I'd be only yours.


I will never settle for less again. I am worth so much, and can be so much in this world. Not mates to a Demon-Wolf hybrid who happened to mark a Nymph....

                                

                                     *******



I showered. Sitting on the floor, letting the steam swallow me whole. The water even began to turn cold, making me shiver and not even realizing until my spine was in excruciating pain from trembling constantly.



I didn't have any clothes in here, so I threw a robe on. Combing my hair all the way back. A knock comes at the door and it's two maidens. Wearing their black, buttoned up dress, with a lacey white apron covering their stomachs.



"You have lunch waiting for you in the dining hall."



They both bowed by the doorway, but the other one's eyes scanned me over frantically and says she will be back with some clothing for me.



I sat there, pretending to be just fine. Knowing Bahm can infiltrate thoughts if he'd like. I would just tie the thoughts of leaving, to sleeping in my bed. "I just couldn't wait to sleep in my bed." Id keep telling myself, meaning I couldn't wait to leave this dreadful life behind. One that was never for me...



I was never suit out to be someone's mate. I will always be looked at as an outcast, someone people might fear and think I'll be harmful to my surroundings. I'll show them all wrong. I'll become that Witch Doctor I always wanted to be.



After coming back with a silky yellow, daisy printed dress that came to my knees, I forced my way out the doors and slowly walked down the hall to the Dining Room.


The maidens escorted me, parting ways when I stepped foot under the archway to go inside. Seeing two dishes on the table I became nervous. Who will be eating with me?



I pull my chair out, looking up to see Kris walking in with a sling around his neck and arm. I automatically cover my mouth and started to sob. Shivers running down my body as I eyed his bruised cheek.



"Stop crying Hunnie. It wasn't Bahm's fault." He takes a seat across from me. I take my seat as well, how could this be his fault?


Bahm was the one who forced his self on me.!



"I charged him and refused to be healed after we got too rough...I don't like Bahm mistreating you. It's hurts me very much as your second mate."



I look up at him and wipe my tears from my eyes. I wasn't sure if I heard him correctly. All I knew is he was worried about me. So worried, he's calling himself my second mate whom doesn't agree with this at all.



Instinctively, I stood up from my seat and walked over to him. I was touched.



He stands too and I open my arms to hug him, running right into his chest and bawling. Apologizing to him. Telling him I'll behave so he doesn't get hurt.


"I promise I will find a way to get rid of Azalea Hunnie. I understand your pain. I feel it. Just stay away from Bahm. Please."



He wraps his free arms around me, kissing the top of my head and I could help but to cry even harder. I don't want to leave Kris behind. Even if he really is my second mate, he will always be connected to Bahm and I can't stay around to get caught up with him anymore. I'll just disappear...
