I woke alone in a tent given to us by Jun, Haku was nowhere in sight and after what happened the previous night, I couldn't be more grateful. Feeling devastated was an understatement and when Haku had regained control, he'd called me out and the shame had rolled over me in waves, drowning me in embarrassment.
He had no place to try and humiliate me but he was right about one thing, I'd opened my legs for someone I'd barely known, where was my self-respect?
I didn't have a spare change of clothes, Haku had packed the luggage and it wasn't like I had any belongings in Offrost anyway.
If anything, he'd have something for me to wear and he was the last person I wanted to see this morning.
I crawled out of the tent and headed towards the one home I was familiar with. As I approached, I heard a commotion, the Commander's voice rang loud and clear alongside loud thuds.
I sped up and made my way up the steps and into Jun's home.
The sight in front of me wasn't anything surprising.
"You do what I say!" Haku commanded whilst a chair lay toppled over next to him and his hand held the end of a knife that was pinning Jun's hand to the table.
"I can't execute another spell, yesterday's reading has drained the village's magical resources, you will have to come back in two weeks."
"My brother is in a coma," Haku hissed venomously, "And you tell me to come back in two weeks!"
I realised now that Haku held a tuft of white hair in his hand, it must've been August's.
"Leave her alone," I interrupted.
I barely knew Jun but I wouldn't stand by passively whilst Haku hurt her, he'd already cut her and I couldn't imagine what else he was going to do.
The Commander slowly faced me.
"Or what?"
I snatched August's hair from his hand and sped around Jun through the small hut. It didn't take long to reach the backdoor which swung open without much push and led me down a small alley between another home to a grain field with tall head-high crops.
Seeds flew in every direction as I sprinted. It was obvious the Commander was running after me, his heavy grunts and footsteps were near but not close enough.
"Get back here Ezri!"
There was no way Haku was catching me, I was enhanced as much as scientifically possible.
"Ezri!"
I wasn't afraid of the chase, I was quite the opposite, I was enjoying this hunt knowing I had the upper hand and maybe this time I could escape him for good. As I ran, I let what was left of his brother's strands blow away in the wind and I couldn't stop myself from laughing.
A sound resembling wings echoed from behind me, I peered over my shoulder but saw nothing, not even Haku before something snake-like wrapped and looped around my ankles.
I tumbled and fell to the ground.
No!
I scrambled to free myself from whatever contraption had tangled itself around my legs, it looked like a rope of sorts with two semi-weighted balls at both ends.
I moved quickly to try and untangle the knots knowing Haku wasn't far behind but, it only took seconds before I could sense his presence.
No.
As I pulled at the rope, I realised it was made from some kind of metal wiring making it damn near impossible to simply remove.
"Ezri," The Commander growled.
Before I had a chance to look up, Haku was on me, straddling me and capturing both my hands in one of his and holding them above my head like he needed to cage me.
"Get off me," I squirmed.
"Where's the hair?!"
"Gone," I smiled.
If I thought Haku was mad before, his expression contorted even more and his grip on my hands tightened but I wasn't afraid of him.
"You better be lying," He said as he lowered his face to mine.
"I'm not," I replied against his lips.
"I should kill you, Ezri,"
"So kill me," I snarled.
I was expecting Haku to draw a sharp knife from his hip before planting it deep in my chest but instead, I got soft lips pressing against mine and a strong hand gripping my jaw.
Stunned was an understatement, especially when I realized I was kissing him back and allowing his tongue to tangle with mine. The Dark Commander was dominant, his hips ground against mine, pressing me further into the dirt as his fingers squeezed my cheeks.
I found myself moaning readily, and as though Haku knew what I craved, the Commander released my face and snaked one of his hands underneath my t-shirt to stroke one of my breasts.
I screamed in agony when the Commander gripped and twisted my left nipple so hard it brought tears to my eyes.
"There's something about you," he panted in irritation.
"I'm sorry," I pleaded, praying he'd let go.
"No, you're not," Haku replied as he released my sore nub to pull my shirt up completely.
I moaned loudly when the Commander attacked my sore nip with his warm mouth and tongue, lapping and messaging as his other hand squeezed my right breast.
"Haku!" I hate admitting that I panted and moaned for him as he sucked and touched me.
