Battle of Wills

Escaping the battle without by turning your thoughts within only to find another intense battle-that  of wills.

Mogan,

I stared,he stared back.I smiled,he smiled back.I let out a sigh of relief for I had not messed up my stay in  Stumpstead  by killing-again. The man had a cold,dangerous aura round him;one that reeked of power and dominance.He scared me not because after all he was just a mere human while I was...more.

"You just right for the job uuum..."

"Mogan,call me Mogan and what kind of work are we talking about?"I asked  to test how deep  the waters are.

"I believe right there is an illustration of what I want you to do.I must say I have never seen such a clean kill before."He said pointing to the limp body right next to me.

"Uuuum so who we talking about?"I asked despite my insides screaming at me not to.

"(Chuckling) Why the rush? You need to be in my service first as a cover up don't you think? "

"Who are you sir?"I asked on when all my body wanted was out of that place.

"Call me Lord Warren and you happen to be in my empire so doing what I ask of you is considered wise.Now where were we?" The emperor asked as an evil grin spread on his most pale face.

When would all this stop?I felt like some bait and agreeing was the only way out that is if I  did not want to mess up my own plans.

I was now another juggling ball in someone else's plans.Could things get  worse than this?

"From now you in the calvary as my own soldier.Now shall we get out of this place and discuss your terms of services."He said not asking.

Oblivious to my wounded state,he trudged out of the door before me.I kept on wondering who was better,Poseidon or Warren?

Anyway none of that really mattered.I felt like a leash dog as I  followed him out.

I wanted none of it but fate seemed to enjoy giving me a plate full of "it".

Sometimes  Gaea plays opposites  only to see who beat the odds...

***************
The red haired Megaira was storming and pacing  at the bottom of the ocean floor.She was furious and filled with fear.She did not know what to make out of the whole 'ocean floor,Greek god business '. Megaira had pinched her cheek red to confirm that this was indeed a dream  but a dream it was not.

Poseidon,the man or rather god who made her knees turn into jelly, had sort of abducted her and disappeared to who knows where. She felt so stupid for having been smitten by him.She had been attracted to him at first glance proving that she was after all a magnet to danger.

It was just too much to take in especially that fish tail of his..She tried wishing it all away but as she opened her big dreamy eyes nothing changed.

Fury was seeping out of her very veins as she knew not   whether she would ever see the light of day.The glimmering palace was the peak of glam anyone dreamed to have but at what cost?

Then there was this unearthly need to have Poseidon  around.A kinda* twisted sexual urge but Megaira was fighting it off.She vowed to kill the sea god if he dared appear to her again but deep down she was afraid that her body out of its own accord, would throw itself to the sea god for the taking.

Strawberry did  I hear you call me?Missed me?Want me?Poseidon asked as he appeared in the most inopportune of times.

There was this aura round him that made anyone be drawn to him especially Megaira.

"How do you like my palace little birdie? "He continued his taunts as Megaira huddled close to a coral reef.

Where was Hans when she needed him the most?

"Oh your brother ain't serious with you as you might think."Poseidon said as he drew near.

It dawned on Megaira that he was reading her mind but was there some truth in what he was saying?Did Hans have something to do with her abduction? Did this explain him not showing up for horse riding and the  tense atmosphere when he had seen Poseidon?

No! Her own brother couldn't endanger her life or would he?She struggled to shut the heinous thoughts and closed her eyes shuts-trying to block the feelings that came with the god's presence.

Why not just give in Strawberry? The more he asked the more she coiled and....fought. Her battle of Wills.
