Pluto had gotten off of her. Her wrists were bruised red and well as her neck. There were soft tears dropping from her face. He was far too strong for her, she couldn't do anything but lay there while crying. She was incredibly sore. Her body was as stiff as it was when she first met eyes with that demon. While Pluto was cleaning himself up he walked up to her and gripped her face.

"You know.. maybe if you weren't so difficult I wouldn't have had to hurt you, but here we are" he growled at her "and now you think I'm the bad guy? When all you used me for was this 'help' just to go on and find yourself someone else?" He spat at her, then paused.

He began wiping the tears from her face, and she would pull away and flinch every time.

"Now now angel, all you have to do is go to sleep now.. you'll feel better if you do. If you want I'll go to the other room and leave you here"

She didn't say anything and kept staring blankly at the wall. He took that response and left her alone.

The underworld didn't have a morning or night so Pluto simply waited for eight hours to pass. Since demons don't sleep all he did was recharge his mind which consisted of self induced "sleeping" even though it wasn't actually sleeping.

When eight hours passed he opened his eyes and walked slowly to find Kiara laying in the same position with bloodshot eyes. He went up to her but she didn't bat an eye at him. He leaned in to grab her face but she turned away.

"Take me home. Now" she said without any expression in her voice.

"This is your home love" he reached for her braid but she slapped his hand away "Remember when I fed you that fruit last night? Well that ensured that you'd stay with me forever" he smiled

Finally she looked at him with nothing but fear in her eyes.

"What do you mean" she stuttered

"It means you're mine, my property darling. You can't leave me ever again. You're stuck with me here forever" he sat down next to her.

"n-no, that can't be" she shuffled around and tried to call for Apollo, Xilu, or Viramis

"What do you think they're going to do, Hmm?" He scoffed "that cute little lucky charm I gave you contains the blood, tears, and teeth of the person who was destined to be your soulmate by the universe and once I put it around your neck it gave me that right to be your soulmate instead of the other person. So even if you did try to leave you'd always find your way back to me because I made you my soulmate"

She grabbed the charm and started to pull it off of her but it was stuck like she was under a hex.
