-----------------------------------------
When I woke up I could hear the sound of horses hooves sending shocks through my already pounding head, I quickly gathered my strength and hid behind a massive tree, I could hear whispers telling me to hide, that it might cost me my life if I'm not carful, to my surprise they were coming from the trees, I thanked them silently, I peered around the tree to see two beautiful horses, one white and one black, but the riders were even more beautiful, the closest man had dirty blonde hair and tan skin with green eyes to match, the other one had light brown hair and blue eyes, he had the same tan skin, that's when I noticed they both had the same face but different coloured hair and eyes, they must be twins, I whipped back around covering my mouth with my hand, trying to be as quiet as possible, I sat like that for 2 minutes, not daring to turn back around, when I deemed it to be safe I wandered out from behind the tree, but something grabbed my hair, pulling me back, violently I was pinned against the tree, I squeezed my eyes shut waiting to feel something glid into my stomach like the movies but nothing did, still I kept my eyes closed, I heard a playful chuckle from beside me, then something hot and wet glided across my neck, I stifled a moan, I open my eyes to see the brothers in all their glory smirking at me, lucky me to be pinned up against a tree by the hottest people I've ever laid eyes on, "what's a lonely girl like you wandering out in the woodland all by yourself" the blonde one asked while stroking my thigh, I was still pinned by my hands above my head, I tried to squirm out of the brown ones grip "I fell from the sky" I admitted, they both threw back their heads and laughed, "no mortal can come through the mirror of gods and goddesses" they eyed me suspiciously, I stiffened, now I understand the lady at the furniture store was telling the truth, "and why did you coming here" the blonde one said drawing closer to my face, I blushed turning my head to the side, "you'll have to answer sooner or later" the other brother said gripping my neck with a devilish smile on his face, I gulped as his hand found his way to my skirt, ripping a opening so his hand could enter to stroke my inner thigh, while his brother sucked on my neck, I let out a moan, which made them continue there way to pleasure me into making me talk, his hand was suddenly creeping towards my core and I couldn't take it anymore, I tore free from his grasp and made it six feet before I was grabbed by the waist I thrown towards the ground, I let a scream which was soon muffled by one of the brothers hands, while I was being pushed further into the ground, I felt a rope being tied around my wrists and ankles, and I thought to myself I'm going to get raped, "please don't rape me" I said with tears threatening to stream down my face faster than a river, he both chucked "That's not how we do things miss...?"
"My names saffron" I replied quickly
"Well saffron I'm castor and this is my brother Pollux, he said pointing to the brunette,
I felt better knowing there names, but suddenly I was lifted onto one of the horses, I squealed in protest, "calm down saffron" castor said with a calming and reassuring voice, "we are taking you to the Kingdom" he cut my bounds and I readjusted myself on the horse, castor climbed on behind me and positioned himself so close to me I could feel his heat radiating off him, we broke through the forest at top speed, his breath prickling my ear, "am I going to fast" his voice low and full of sexual desire, I shock my head, we were only on the horses for 5 minutes, but it felt like an eternity, we hopped off and two guards led our horses away, what stood infront of me was amazing, a giant golden wall with silver and gold designs running across it, the doors opened slightly to let us in, inside was a white paved street and equally white houses, but on top of the mountain, was a silver empire, we walked past tons of beautiful people all gathering to stare at me and the young men, children hiding behind there parents afraid to dare a peek at us, when we finally made it to the top, the kingdom had disappeared, "where did it go?" I asked sounded rather confused, they both let if a shrillfull laugh and looked up, I followed their gaze and saw something I'd never forget, the palace was floating on clouds, it's silver gate gleaming in the afternoon sun, it looked like heaven, they lead us over to a bronze platform, we stood on it and the same blue light began to shine around us, I gripped onto Pollux when my feet could no longer feel the ground beneath me, he returned to grip and set his hand on the small of my waist, only letting go when we reached the top,
"How was that for your first ride up?" Castor asked happily, "I thought we were going to die" I said with no enthusiasm, "oh cmon saffron it was fun?" Pollux said while prodding my cheek, "fine it was fun" I said waving his hands away from my face while a huge smile danced across my lips.
We were lead through the gates and into the palace, it's marble floors screaming $100m
6 giant gold pillars held the roof above, I'm guessing this is what you call a throne room, I elderly man sat in the glowing blue throne, us three knelt before him, when we straightened his voice boomed through the room "WHO IS THIS MORTAL GIRL" my ears threatening to burst, "your majesty we saw her fall from the sky and brought her back here" they said in Union, I stood in between them nervously, I looked at me feet not daring to look at him,
"WHAT IS YOUR NAME CHILD" he yelled towards me "saffron Bondi your majesty" I said stuttering, "HOW IS IT POSSIBLE THAT YOU CAME THROUGH THE MIRROR BEING A MORTAL?"
"I found a Mirror and it lead me to these balls, I plucked the balls from my pocket and showed him, he leant forward in his seat eyeing the orbs, "YOU SHALL DO THE TEST OF GODS TO SEE YOUR TRUE IDENTITY"
The brothers lead me away after bowing to there King, we hiked up a beautiful glass staircase, we ran into a few people, all of which were dressed like they belonged in a Roman god book for kids, purple and white dresses with ringlets bunched into a bun, with beautiful gold belts and jewels, I couldn't believe where I was, they lead me down a long corridor, when we finally stopped we were standing across from a blue door, so blue it was almost glowing, they threw me inside "wash up and get dressed into something presentable, we will come and collect you in an hour" they bowed and closed the door.
I took in my surroundings carefully, a giant bed sat in the middle of the room, with four silver pillars pinning it into the place, green vines laced their way down the beautiful pillars and nested at the sides of the bed, on the wall opposite the bed was a mirror that filled the whole wall and a very large makeup station, fully stoked with everything you could possibly need, I thought living in Ancient Greece would limit a lot of things, but they seem to be up to date, two doors were on the far side of the spacious room, one lead to a marble floored bathroom with a oval shaped bath overlooking the ground below. The other room lead to a vast walk in closet, almost 200 hundred dresses Hung up in a selection of colours, more than 50 pairs of sandals were lined up in a pull out draw, I couldn't believe my eyes, I was pulled out of my trance when a knock sounded at my door, I quickly raced thinking it might be the brothers but to my surprise it was a gorgeous brown haired lady baring a mix of food and a pitch full of water, "hey I'm melody!" She said all to enthusiastically, plastering a wide smile on her face she waltzed in and set the meal down on a glass table at the foot of the bed, "I'm here to prepare you for the
Celestial judge" I could only fathom a nod, she tugged my hand towards the bathroom and ushered me to grab a fresh towel from behind me, while she was running the bath. I waited while she poured different elixirs into the water and filled it with a array of flowers and petals, " you know your the first person to come through that mirror in 700 years" she look curiously at me, after she finished she motioned me to get undressed, I stood there embarrassed, blushing the pinkest of pinks, "your not the first person I've seen naked today, I wash the bloody backsides of old men, trust me you can't be that bad" she gave me a wink and I let out a laugh, I stripped off and climbed into the warm sweet smelling water, she washed my back while humming a beautiful song, "I miss home" I said before I could stop myself, a tear started to fall and slide down my cheek, landing in the water below, then all at once the water began to turn blue and glow, melody gasped behind me, "your one of the original gods! You have to keep this to yourself child, people will come looking for you, hunters and assassins, people in the palace, she quickly tugged me out of the bath and wrapped me in a fluffy towel, she quickly forget about what happened when we started to discuss dresses, she lined up ten at a time and but none seem to have caught my eye, until she pulled out the most breathtaking dress I've ever seen.
