Disclaimer : They don't belong to me .
The heiress stood in the dark , thinking about the years she spent
on the plateau , after all they weren't all that bad . Even though she had faced
the weirdest of things ,at night it all seemed so calm ,that it was hard not to
think that she was in some kind of a paradise . It smelled so good and the breeze ,
so refreshing ,caressed her face and she smiled , remembering Roxton and all the things
he had done to her , saving her many times physically and emotionally .She put her hand
on her face pretending it was that of the man she had lost sleep over , but it was
nothing like the real deal . Lost in her fantasies she didn't see the figure surging
from the dark , grabbing her by the waist , a hand on her mouth , whispering to her not
to scream .
-Why Marguerite , that was a great way to handle a whip ,. He turned her to face him .
-Damn you Roxton . She said breathing heavily . You almost gave me a heart attack .
He smiled , that charming smile , how could she resist ? and she
returned him the gesture .
-And that leather thing , sure did suit you .
She grinned . - You sure did notice .
He pulled her closer to him , brushing his lips against hers :" I sure did notice "
, his hand pressing the base of her neck he pulled her deeper into the kiss , while
another hand rested on her lower back . Marguerite felt her heart pounding , she
felt so good in his arms , but then again she couldn't surrender to him that easily .
If it was another man , perhaps she wouldn't have cared , yes , maybe she wouldn't ,
not even about the consequences , but with John she did care about the outcome , and
she'd rather stay away , long for him from far ,than be with him and get hurt . She
pulled away .
- Marguerite , What 's wrong ?
-We can't do this John ... I can't . I know the outcome ... I don't want to ruin what
we have .
-Marguerite You know ... She starts walking away . You know I would never hurt you .
He continued .
He sighed , looking at her one last time , then crashed in the chair .
Marguerite laid on her bed , tears filled her eyes , she wanted him ,
wanted him so bad , why was she so damn complicated . She emerged from her room , to
talk to him , to fix what she had broken , Cause she was hurting , hurting for not
letting him love her , or desire her , hurting cause she needed his affection .
-Roxton , we need to talk .
But as she stood in front of the chair to face him , all she could see was a stiff body .
She couldn't scream . Marguerite ran to Challenger's room .
-Challenger , it's Roxton , wake up Challenger .
She kept screaming and Veronica ran to her side . - what is wrong Marguerite ?
- it's Roxton , oh god , it's Roxton .
Malone followed the two ladies , shocked by the sight . Roxton was as hard as wood .
-What is wrong my dear , said Challenger from behind .
Marguerite ran to him , he hands on his shoulder .
-You got to help him professor , you got to do something .
As The professor got closer from the body , the tree house members could see the horror
on his face .
-It looks like the water has been drained from his body . Said Challenger ,
Marguerite was crying heavily , Veronica by her side , and Malone researching
the books hoping to find an answer .
-I feel it's a curse .
-I don't know Veronica , There were many cases of spontaneous combustion , what if this
is natural ?
-You are right Malone , but still we have to find out what caused it .
- Then this is it , it's over isn't it . Cried the heiress .
-Come on Marguerite I will help you to your room .
-No Veronica , I don't want to leave him .
-But staying here will only hurt you more . Answered The blond beauty . Veronica took
Marguerite by the arm and led her to her room .
The two ladies sat on the bed , Veronica a bit hesitant at first , hugged Marguerite ,
letting her know that everything will be all right , but the only answer she got was more
sobs , and her heart was breaking to see this once strong woman , slowly collapsing in her
arms .
-I love him Veronica .
-I know Marguerite , I know .
Miss Krux , had fallen to sleep . exhausted by all the tears she had shed ,
and Veronica sat beside her , watching over her all night . Something new had been formed
between them as she had started to see new sides of the heiress .
Malone came in with tea .
-Find anything .
-Challenger is working on it , but I think we must go find a decent place for burial .
-Poor Marguerite ...
Marguerite couldn't contain her tears , Pain was visible on
Challenger's and Malone's face , while Veronica , trying to be strong , wiped
the tear that managed to escape from her swollen eyes .
Roxton's body laid in a box , each on his turn bid him farewell , before the
journalist covered the wooden coffin with dirt . Challenger held the heiress in his
arms and Veronica held her hand.
-Come on Marguerite , we better get to the tree house , before nightfall , tomorrow
we'll go to the Zenga Village , to let them know .
-It's ok Veronica , just give me five minutes .
Marguerite kneeled where her only love was now laying .
-I do love you Roxton , but I feel such a rage , such hate because you were taken from me .
But I love you , I do , I promise to never forget the brightness you brought into my heart .
She stood , looked at the others .-We better go .
The next day , they all headed to the Zenga Village . Insomnia was
visible on Marguerite's face . She had sneaked out of the tree house at dawn , bringing
fresh flowers to Roxton's grave . Veronica had followed her from behind without letting
her notice .
Sadness filled the air , when all the Zenga people heard about John . Asig pulled Veronica
aside .-I think I know what has happened . -What do you mean Asig ? - Veronica , I think
Roxton's soul is trapped somewhere , we need to retrieve his body , call back his soul and
reunite the two. -You mean it's a curse ? - Yes , I think Veronica , and there's no harm in
trying .
-I will talk to Malone and Challenger .
The moon illumined her tired face as Marguerite on a rock . She was lost in
her thoughts. She felt a breath on her face and she caressed her cheek remembering the night
he held her , and kissed her. It sent shivers through her whole body , then she sensed something , something
was moving on the dirt .A reptile perhaps she thought to herself , then she noticed it spelled a word .
" You do look lovely , whip or no whip " Marguerite stood .
-Roxton ? she cried , Roxton is that you ? She heard no answer , nothing .
She ran to the village , to Veronica's room .
-Veronica ,. Roxton talked to me .
-What Marguerite , it's midnight .
-He talked to me .
-Who
-Roxton ... who .!!!
-Wake up , something is wrong here .
Veronica sat in her bed . - Asig was right .
Roxton's body was exhumed , Challenger covered it , so it wouldn't disturb
Marguerite , and an old witch doctor was brought to his side .
Marguerite was nervous , trembling like a leaf in Veronica's arms .
-It is a curse . Said the old wise man . A curse that has separated his soul from his
body . A curse from the Gods up above who watch us . Perhaps now this man is released
from his past and can look peacefully into the future .
HE started chanting , unknown words , dancing to a certain beat he was creating .
Marguerite felt John move under the cover .-He's alive . She ran to him , taking off
the sheet that laid on top of him . He opened his eyes and she showered him with kisses
all over his face , constantly whispering I love you , I love you , I love you .
Ned held Veronica in his arms , the whole village was dancing with happiness .
-What a fine story that will make hun Ned ? The journalist hugged Veronica and kissed
her .-There are certain things I have learned Veronica , I don't intend to leave this
world with unspoken feelings .
The blond girl smiled at him as he came closer to kiss her once again .
-Oh Marguerite , I saw my brother , I am forgiven Marguerite .
-Never do that to me again Lord John , You gave me quite a scare .
-Is that a tear I see in you eyes .
-Do shut up . Come on we've got to return to the village .
The celebration lasted until dawn , everybody was happy , Veronica
was teaching Ned a couple of dancing steps , Asig and her husband were gathered around
Challenger , and Marguerite , well she wasn't in sight .
Roxton walked to the hut where miss Krux was supposed to be staying , and he found her ,
sitting on the bed , hands crossed around her knees .
-May I share you thoughts ?
-You already have . She smiled .
-I have put the past behind me Marguerite , I am free now .
She put her hand on his face , he was newly shaved , she could feel it ,
-I am so happy for you John . She leaned closer and gave him a kiss .
-Perhaps I can free you from whatever that is , that is haunting you .
She hugged him tightly .
-I don't ever want to lose you John . It's been hell to know you are dead , dead without
me ever telling you how I feel .
-I heard you Marguerite , and that night when you felt a breeze on your cheek , that was
me .
-You did save me Roxton , You have showed me love , and that is all I need specially when
it comes from you ... She paused for a second .And of course some gems . She grinned .
He threw himself at her , and she laughed like she had never done before , he kissed her ,
touching her , memorizing every part of her body with his hands .
-What a shame , the leather top is in the tree house .She whispered to his ear
-Well don't worry my dear , there will be a lot of other opportunities . He replied ,
unbuttoning her shirt .
My first fic . Review it please .
hope u like it .
