My God

My God 7 )

"Come on. Let me go already" I plead as I realise where we are going his getting more and more heavily guarded.

"Are you taking me to the dungeons?!" I start to panic.
This isn't fair! This isn't right! It's not my fault he's my soulmate. What even is a soulmate? Is that why I'm so attracted to him? Good lord. What is going on????

"Stop struggling against me please. I don't wish to hurt you" his voice was authoritative. I could see why Enas got mad at his brother so easily.

He thinks he can control the world.
Yeah right buddy.
Just because you're literally Terry Crews ripped doesn't mean you're all that great and powerful...

My eyes scan upwards as I realise all these goons were in cages made of a material that was easy to get into and impossible to get out of.
No amount of magic could pull this cell open from the inside.

"Oh my word" I say as we approach a cell, Enas's usual slicked back hair was a mess, his eyes are hung low, he looks tired and his clothes make him look like he needs a good wash.
He was covered in dirt with a long sleeved lime shirt and black loose fitting pants.

"Enas..?" I Whisper, Ignis let me go and I ran to the cell, not realising that one touch and I'd go through.
My hands were so close to touching the blue field.

"No! No don't touch it. You'll be trapped" I smile at him before turning back to Ignis who was watching with a frown before flipping him the bird and walking into the cage backwards.

I touched Enas's barefoot and I spun back around to help him stand up.
"Are you okay?" I ask scanning him for another new bruises.

His nose was pretty messed up, his left cheek and right eye were bruised and his had a purple and black bruise on his collarbone.
I touch it gently before feeling so sorry for him.

He didn't deserve this.
Sure he was the god of magic with serious anger issues but he wasn't a bad guy, so what if he pulled some anger Hulk tricks every now and then. What is the worst that could happen?

"Are you okay is more like it my dear" his hand touches my face lovingly and I realise this whole time I've been captivated by him.
The way he is, the way he talks, his crazy Enas clothes.

"Besides your oaf of a brother treating me terribly because I told him we were soulmates- I'm good" his breath hitches.

Did I say something wrong?

"Soulmates?" He says slowly, not taking his beautiful green orbs off me.

"That explains a lot.." he mumbles in response.
He slides back down to the bottom of the cell.

"Ignis says this can free you" I try to reason, why was I pleading?

"It's a trap. Ignis loved an Earthling. She died all the same. I can't lose that" he made an magic spell so that he was a snake before venomously trying to snap at me.
I stood still.

Was he.. rejecting me?

I mean it's not like a werewolf thing right? Like I can find a new soulmate.. I can.. I...

"What happened to the caring Enas who said that he wanted to do nothing but get revenge on his lying, unfair family?" I say instead.

The snake transform into Enas in his usual Yaldvir attire, golden cape and all.
He backs me into a wall, punching the wall beside my head.

"I was using you you fool! They don't call me the god of magic for nothing. You really think a scummy human girl is gonna change my mind just because we are soulmates?!"

"But I ate the stone.. I went through a transition for you.
I have powers because of you!"

"Oh la-dee-dah. Buzz off. I did that for my benefit only. You're weak. Get out. You've failed me"

He pulled himself away from me and I felt my heart hammering in my chest.
"How could you change so quickly?"

"I'm a trickster. Deal with it princess" he hissed before slumping to the bottom of his cell, still in his illusion form.

"Stop. Stop lying! You know you just don't want me because you could lose me, please, you showed me something I haven't seen in years. I trusted you!"

Enas glared at me with total anger, hate, loathing.
"Than you're even more pathetic than I thought."

My eyes watered over.
"I am the God of magic. I wanted more power. You were a pawn in my game and I made you look like a fool."

"I refuse to believe that" I say with less confidence.
Was I under an influence?

He stood up so quickly I almost didn't register it and gripped my shoulder tightly.
"I don't want you Carla. I don't want you" his harsh unmoving eyes made me feel exposed.

I could feel my power bubbling within but pushed it back down.
"Just get out and let me rot, I don't care about you any way"

Thor places his hand in the cell and grabs me out of Enas's grip.
The cold feeling of the cell door going through me makes me shiver slightly.

"Come on Carla" Ignis says quietly.
I started to sob as we walked away from the cells.

I saw the gold glow of him ending his illusion spell but I knew he infact  satisfied with himself.
He had won. I was just a pawn.
Soulmate or not.
I got played.
Big time.
