Lost Girl {Sequel to Wonderstruck} [ OUAT Fanfic ]

Sixteen: Problem

Chapter 16

Dani's POV

There was a different atmosphere lingering around Neverland. It put me so over the edge that I forgot about my shirtless companion beside me.

Something about the way James held me didn't feel as comforting as it was with Peter.

"You okay?" He asks, voice full of concern.

I nod, but he doesn't believe me.

"There's something bothering you.... Is it Peter?"

I shake my head, then look up at the brunette Lost Boy. We stare into each other's eyes for what seems like hours, but was only minutes.

"You still love him, don't you?"

Shit, I should've known that that question would come up.

"A part of me will always love Peter," I sighed, "and I probably always will."

That is true. Even for me to say. And it was not just because we created Aeris. I loved him for all sides. I saw the man behind the monster, the Bloody Demon that everyone knew from Henry's rescue.

No, he was a man who's heart was incapable of love. An enemy of love. Somehow, I managed to break through the walls of Peter's lonely life on Neverland, and make things good.

Not to talk my own talk, but things were..... good..... when Peter was, well, Peter.

There were two sides to Peter. One, being just Peter, the lonely lost boy who just wanted acceptance in the world. And there was Pan; the devil within. Neverland was hell to some, but to me, it was home.

James' features darkened but there was a look of acceptance in his eyes. That acceptance was soon replaced by hate.

"James-"

"Hey, I get it, one would only fall for the King of Neverland, right? So much power, who wouldn't be attracted to his charm?" With a sarcastic smile, he pulls his arms from around my waist, and throws on a tight black shirt.

"Where are you going?" I question with a glare as I step in front of him.

"Do you care?"

"Of course I care!"

"You say that, but I don't believe you."

He tries to get passes me but I don't allow it.

"Move," James growls harshly.

"Make me," I imitate his tone.

Before I knew it, James had his lips on mine. The kiss is full of need and list that I find myself reacting to it.

The boy lifts me in his arms, pinning me against.... A tree?

Son of a bitch, he teleported us.

Where?

My mind can only focus on how good his muscular figure feels against mine.

"Dani?" Hearing his voice, I freeze completely.

There's an emotionless laugh from the boy in the cage, locked away at the sight of mine and James' make out session.

James puts me down, breathing heavily from our make out session. He crossed his arms against his chest with an alpha sense to him.

Peter's eyes won't leave mine.

What am I supposed to say?

Peter steps at the end of the cage with a bitchy look in his eye. "Tell me, princess, is there a man on Neverland that you haven't been spending 'extra time' with?"
