SUMMER'S RAIN

CHAPTER 61

CHAPTER 61

“How did you get here?” I enquired with my hands still on his waist.

“You didn’t think I’d leave you here did you Princess?” He said with a half-crocked smile playing on his beautiful mouth.

“Really how did you get here? I know they changed the incantation, as soon as they found us.”

“I have my ways” he said still smiling.

I hugged him again telling him how glad I am he is here. Dominick’s arms went back around me pulling me close to his body. I lost myself in his strength and the smell of his body. We stayed that way for a long time, before I pull away to look at Rachel and Adam, whom are both staring at us. “So I take it, you guys have already met Dominick?” I asked without letting him go. They both told me the tree people had brought Dominick in right after I left, and they had spent the last couple of hours talking to him. Glancing back at Dominick, I see he is staring at me again with the same strange look he had, had when I first walked in the hut and noticed him standing in the corner.

Deciding to ignore the look, I remove my arms from around his waist and take his hand to lead him over to my cushion and sit down, pulling him down beside me. I need to touch him I can’t keep my hands off him. He is my life line to home and everything I miss. Plus he’s my Greek God, and I crave his touch. He sits beside me. Puts his arm around me as he lay’s back on the huge cushion. Without hesitation, I laid against him. My head on his chest the feeling of comfort overwhelms me. I feel as if I am home at the place I’m meant to be when I’m in his arms. Dominick’s other arm goes around my waist his hand resting on my stomach as he kisses the top of my head again. I sit there in the safety Dominick’s arms and listen as Adam and Rachel tell the story about how this had all started. Finally, they ask Dominick if he has the incantation to get us out of here.

Dominick starts telling how he had found a fairy and caught him with the Whoops. It’s the first weapon I had ever seen and I remember how stupid Lisa looked showing me how to use it. She was slinging that thing around in the air like a woman gone mad.  Going around and around like she had lost her ever loving mind. Dominick said the fairy told them the incantation for entering the Fairy Realm. I’m almost positive he left out a lot of details on how he made the Fairy talk. I felt a chill run through my body just thinking about it.

Dominick must have felt me shiver because he tightened his hold on me and kissed the top of my head again before he continued talking. He really had my attention when he said that he and Case both came to the Fairy Realm. I push myself off him. When I sit up, I asked him “where is Case?”

“I don’t know when we came through the door we somehow got separated. I was looking for him when those stupid creepy ass little things jumped me. I figured out I had no powers the hard way. Anyway after they captured me, I figured they had gotten Case too. Now that I’m here and see they have us all together, I’m thinking they don’t have him. More than likely they don’t know about him. Think about it if they had captured Case, they would have brought him here just like they did me.”

“I think you may be right.” Adam jumped in to say.

“So for now the best thing we can do is keep our mouths shut and do whatever the fairies, and those creepy little things want us to do and not mention Case. We need to give him time to come up with a plan to get us out of here. We can’t let on that I didn’t come through that door alone. Do you guys understand”? Dominick asked looking at Adam and Rachel.

As I listen to what Dominick said. I feel relieved knowing that Case is out there, and the fairies hadn’t gotten him. I know Case will get us out of here. It will just take him some time to do it. “I just hope he doesn’t get caught before he has time to come up with something.” I said feeling relieved now that I know nothing had happened to Case. I lay back on the cushion again. Dominick put his arm back around my neck as I lay back, but I didn’t lean into him this time nor did I offer to lay my head back on his chest.

I lay there and listen as they all talk. I was thinking about what Dominick had said about us needing to do whatever the Fairies or the tree people want us to do until Case finds a way to get us out of here. I wonder what he will say if he only knew what the Fairy Prince wants me to do. I got really cold so I rolled on my side and picked up the blanket that had fallen on the floor earlier that day. With blanket in hand, I went to roll back over when Dominick’s arms goes around me pulling my body close to his chest.

Leaving me with no other choice, I lay my head on his chest. He takes the blanket from me and covers us both with it before wrapping his arms back around me tightly. I can hear his heart beating. As I listen to his heart it donned on me that it’s beating really fast. Maybe that’s how a half Angels heart beats all the time it’s not like I can find somebody else like Dominick to ask.  He is one of a kind literally. With my head lying on Dominick’s chest his arms are holding me tight I fall asleep.
