Witches & Demons (On hold)

I am a Bride

When I woke up I was in a room I didn't recgonize. In a bed that was so soft, I thought I was on clouds at first. And when I looked down, I was.... I was.... NAKED!! What the.... what happened to me? I looked around and saw that there was a big lump in the covers. That same lump moved and yawned. It was a PERSON!! While I am NAKED?!!! The person got up and when the cover slipped off of them I saw exactly who it was. Taru?!! "Where am I? What happened? Why am I naked?!", I asked. Taru looked at me. Then he smiled devishly and said, "Do you really want to know the answer to that last question? The others, though, I can answer on my own. You are in my bed. You were taken away by me. Oh, and here is a question you didn't ask, you are here because you and I are married now." What?! "What do you mean married?" Only eighteen and I find out I am a witch and I am married? "You are married to me. The ceremony was last night, as soon as I came and got you. Sorry you were asleep the whole time. I even kissed you, too." What! That means I had my first kiss while I was asleep?! I turned bright red with blush. Taru saw that. "What is wrong with you?", he said. Then he thought about it. "Okay, I see. Well, thank you for letting me do the honors of your first kiss." Am I that obvious? 

Taru showed me around his place. Well, castle. Does everyone have one these days? "You have seen your new permanent home. Isn't it nice?" "Yes it is." In the corner of my eye there was door that Taru had not shown me. "What is inside that room?" "Nothing at all. Why do you ask?" "I just wanted to know. And if there is nothing then why is there a door? Aren't I your 'wife'? You shouldn't lie to me." I started to walk to the "forbidden" door. Taru stopped me in my tracks. "Want your second kiss?" I blushed. "Wh- Wh-...." He kissed me. Then he pushed me against the wall. He continued to kiss me for a long time. When he finally released, I let out little cry. "Aaahh!" Taru obviously liked this. He picked me up just like we were newly-weds, wait... we are, up to his room. He dropped me on the bed and smiled at me. "What are you doing?", I asked. Taru looked at me hungerly. As if I were his prey. He said, "I am going to start the ceremony for our wedding. We were supposed to do that on our wedding night but considering the circumstances...." He didn't need to continue, I got it. Wait a minute, ceremony?! What ceremony?! I hope it is not what I think it is.... "What kind of ceremony is this?"

"The ceremony of the bedding."

"What?! This cannot be happening!"

"It is. And we are going to have to start now."

"Why now? Why not later? When I am prepared."

"And when is that later, tonight? I doubt it. We are going to start now. Is that a problem?"

"Yes. We can wait until tonight. I will be more prepared by then." (Even if it is just physically and not mentally. It is better than nothing.)

"Okay then. Tonight. But, my mother will be home for dinner. So you are going to have to talk to her." Taru left the room after he said that.

Taru was right. I was going to have to talk to her. His mother wouldn't let me go. Not even to eat the food on my plate. "Hello dear. My name is Hiyuki. As you already know, I am Taru's mother. He is a pain sometimes isn't he?" "Mother!", said Taru. "What darling?"

"Don't call me darling."

"Why not? We are all family. Oh... I see. You don't want me to embarrass you in front of your new wife. Okay, I will cut down on the 'motherly' stuff."

I smiled. One point for Taru's mother or my new mother-in-law. "Hiyuki. Why do you not live here?", I asked. Hiyuki looked confused. "Sweetie, I do. Did Taru not tell you? I am in the last room of the castle." That is what that door is. "He didn't want me to know you were there, I guess. When I asked about the room, Taru here decided to hide it.", I said. "Well, why did you do that dar- I mean Taru?" Taru ignored us and ate his food.

 After dinner, I took a shower. Then brushed my teeth. I even dressed in my favorite red silk night gown. The one with black buttons going down to my stomach. All the while, moving slowly. Not so slow that Taru comes into the bathroom while I am in the nude. But, slow enough to make the process of the ceremony come late. Maybe even late enough for Taru to be sleep.

As soon as I finished, the clock struck twelve. I thought about Cinderella then. Maybe I should run away from the "ball", too. Of course that wasn't going to happen. I could at least hope that since it is midnight, Taru is definitely asleep.

My hopes were up for nothing. Why do I even bother? Taru was up waiting for me. Like literally watching the door the whole time I was in there. "What took you so long? You weren't trying to prolong the ceremony, were you?", he asked. "No. Why would I?", I replied. "Good. If you were I would just be more vigorous." He smiled then. I am glad I said I wasn't trying to wait. 

"Well, how is this supposed to work? The ceremony I mean.", I asked. "Like this.", said Taru. Then he got out of bed and came to me. He kissed and pulled me to the bed at the same time. As he layed us down, he slowly let go of the kiss. He said very low, "I am to embrace you." Did he have to say it like that? Taru sounded sexy. Very sexy. Is that a good thing? At least now it is.

Taru started to unbutton my buttons............
