Captured Love

Chapter 16

I had Betty lead me back towards the room so I could read in comfort with some snacks. I didn't feel hungry, but I wanted to do something that could reinforce some normalcy back in my life. Whatever this new life so far entailed that is. Betty explained about pocket dimensions and how the space that Amias used to bring out and put back things from the air was actually just that.  So now I could easily call forth the book into my hands whenever I pleased. 

"Wait, but if he could pop it out with no problems why did he need to leave to search for it in the first place?" 

"The book was not in the pocket space previously before you arrived, it had been sealed away until it was needed again by the next rulers." I look at her quizzically.

"So, Amias himself hasn't been in charge all that long either, what happened to the guy before him or the previous Queen?" I started to ponder what his life must've been like if he was also brought here and then changed since he was here first. 

"The master was created here. He only has ever been here in this realm until he left to bring in you the next ruler chosen since your conception came into existence." I looked at her skeptical about what I was hearing.

"If that is really true why now and how was he so experienced then at modern technology or the human realms societal norms?" 

"I can only assume perhaps he used magic as you are not limited within the rules of the human realm itself since it is connected to this one." 

'I guess that makes the most sense out of anything.'  

I huff in disbelief of the simple explanation that sounded the most plausible to anything else going on around here. I drop the questions and get back to the book searching for I'd left off after seeing the section about portals. I found it easily with the help of magic thankfully. I willed myself to find it and the pages flurried through stopping on exactly where I needed it to. 

Portals:

Only the chosen rulers of the realm can be able to create or summon the gated doorways through connecting the dimensions. However, the bond must be established to stabilize the connection and ground the caster. 

I mentally danced with glee.

According to what is written in this book I should easily be able to cast one, yet why is it that he never came for me before until now and why is it that he never bothered to travel to these other realms previously if he was here alone. 

 I was excited but that excitement cooled when I thought things through logically. There had to be other extenuating circumstances of why he did things in such a roundabout way. I furrowed my brow with frustration not understanding that guy at all. I kept reading thinking maybe I could find some kind of records or archived transcripts about any events at all. I began to feel drowsy from all the thinking and reading. My eyes slowly began to drift off, I was too tired to notice a certain man walking in as they settled me properly into bed. His warmth was radiant against my skin giving me a sense of comfort. I relaxed further into his arms feeling him lay beside me I almost thought it was all a part of my dreaming till I awoke with him beside me.

I had to stop myself from jumping in surprise. His face looked a bit worn out as if he'd been exhausted all this time. I never knew what he did all day only that he always seemed to disappear to do his duties while I was left to do mine. I never bothered to ask or think of his side of things considering he kidnapped me and killed me. 

'I don't care if I'm not dead technically, I still consider it murder.'  

Getting irritated remembering the whole ordeal he put me through I yank the blanket in more my direction to leave him without nothing.  I regret the action almost immediately as his body is revealed in all its glory to me. I tsk at myself and turn away from him to avoid ogling. He begins to stir and pulls me closer to him and drapes an arm over my hip. I try to find his touch repulsive or recoil except I couldn't. My body seemed to melt in his embrace and my mind just turned off not wanting to rebel. I sigh not wanting to give in yet also wanting more. 

'Why is he even naked or sleeping here?' 

My face starts to heat up as I feel his weapon begin to rise up creeping below my buttocks. 

'Oh no. No, no, no, I will not be doing anything with this man.'

I try to wave away the devious thoughts trying to cloud my mind with lust, remembering our first night together all over again. I wasn't going to fall; I was not this shallow or easy! I bite my lip to keep from making any sound and try to keep from panting as his pecker keeps knocking at my door downstairs. Deciding enough was enough I wake him putting the blanket in-between as a cushion. 

"Hey, wake up already you need to get your stiffy out of here before you start getting my sheets dirty." I shake him awake. He seems unbothered with my effort and gets up as if nothing phases him. 

I look at him in disbelief as he flashes me a full moon and strides away without a word.

'What the fuck just happened?'
