TBATE-ONESHOTS

A Dangerous Game 2

Tessia groaned as she stirred, feeling a soft silkiness beneath her. Her mind was a little foggy as she tried to recollect what had happened. She remembered lying there as the masked individual stood above her, then... Her eyes flung open, remembering how the male had punched her in the face, and she had blacked out. 

With her breathing rate increasing, Tessia lay there, her eyes flicking across the black stone ceiling. She had no idea where she was or how much time had passed, but she had a feeling she was not in friendly territory. 

Slowly, Tessia sat up, deciding she needed to take stock of her surroundings. As soon as she was in a sitting position, she looked down at herself to see if she was injured. But she was more shocked to see she was now wearing a pearl-colored nightgown, with her bra missing. Swallowing hard, she didn't know what to think of that, but she knew she couldn't linger on that thought. The next thing she noticed was the black metal bracelets on her wrists, and panic rose as she realized she couldn't summon her magic. 

Trying to remain calm, Tessia looked up and saw she was in an opulently decorated black stone room filled with dark brown furniture. She immediately noticed the dark brown wooden door across the room. She figured the door was probably locked, but she knew she at least had to try to open it. She had no idea what she would do if the door was open, but she would cross the line when she came to it. 

Turning in the bed, Tessia grabbed the sheets to push off her, but froze. Her gaze was locked on a large window, showing a beautiful mountain range in the distance filled with greenery. In front of the window was a round, dark brown table, with four comfortable-looking seats around it. In one of those seats was a beautiful female with ivory skin, purple eyes, and flowing red hair that was almost the color of fire. She wore dark leather pants, with a gray tank top, showing off her flawless skin, hourglass curves, and large breasts. 

On the table was a silver tea set, with a teacup in front of the woman, who was reading from a book she held. The female said nothing as she reached out, grabbed the teacup, and took a small sip. 

Tessia stared at the female for a moment, wondering if she didn't realize that she was awake. Tessia's eyes flicked back to the door, then back to the female. Quietly, Tessia pushed the sheets off her before she slowly began to crawl out of the bed. Once she was out of bed, she slowly began to make her way toward the door, with her gaze darting between the female and the door. She approached the door and gingerly grabbed the doorknob, trying not to make any noise. Twisting the doorknob, surprise flicked through Tessia as she found the door was unlocked.

Knowing this was her chance, Tessia yanked the door open, twirled around, and was about to run for her life. However, she stopped before she even crossed the threshold, as four figures dressed in black leather armor twirled around, pinning her with a narrowed gaze. Tessia breathed in sharply, as she hadn't considered there would be guards on the other side. Her mind whirled, thinking of her options, as she couldn't summon her magic. But that didn't mean she couldn't find hand-to-hand. 

"I'll give you a choice," The female spoke from inside, her voice elegant and alluring. Tessia looked over her shoulder, seeing the female was still sitting in her chair, reading, and hadn't even spared Tessia a look. "You can either come sit down and join me for tea. Or, I can have those four men out there pick you up, throw you on the bed, and force a sleeping draft down your throat. Your choice."

Tessia's eyes narrowed. "Doesn't feel like you're giving me much of a choice."

The female's eyes flicked up, meeting Tessia's gaze. "Because I'm not."

Tessia's jaw clenched, knowing one choice was far better than the other. She refused to be manhandled and placed in a vulnerable state. Slamming the door closed, Tessia stomped over to the table, the female watching Tessia's every movement. With a huff, Tessia sat down at the table across from the female and crossed her arms.
