Hi guys! So yeah, thanks for the support on chapter one! Anyways, I'm not sure if this will turn lemony or not, (definitely not full-pickle lemony) but maybe some make out sessions or whatnot. So just in case you were curious! Enjoy!
Chapter Two
Ahsoka POV
I glanced over my shoulder to see the man's arms around me. He looked into my eyes, but I was faster, and looked away.
"Please leave!" I tried to shout, hoping maybe Anakin heard me, but it was barely more than a whisper. I felt him run a finger down my cheek.
"Why do you want me gone so badly? I only want to help you." He pulled my chin towards him, and inevitably our eyes met. I was locked into position, but I could still speak.
"Ana-!" He put an icy finger across my lips.
"Please don't call him in. Don't fear me."
"Fear you? You bit me! I don't know what you did to me, but I don't like it. You need to leave, just leave already!" He chuckled, even though I had been totally serious.
"I can read you like an open book, Ahsoka. I know that's not what you really want." I was shaking. He was ice cold, to start, and I guess you could say I was scared.
"I told you, don't fear me. You are the most precious thing in the universe to me, I wouldn't ever hurt you." His gaze was still on me, but he gave me a break long enough to move a bit.
"Then what's this!" I pulled down my collar to reveal the already scarred teeth marks.
"That, my dear, is a gift to you. Immortality, unforetold strength, unimaginable speed." He ran a finger down it, making me flinch. It still hurt.
"It still causes you pain, I see. Let me take that pain away." He kissed my neck where the bites existed. He maintained eye contact with me, so even if I wanted to I couldn't pull away. I felt utterly helpless. He kept up the kiss, I felt him licking the wound. I wanted to punch him off of the bed. But even as angry as I was, it definitely stopped hurting. He looked back up at me, and smiled.
"How about now, dear Ahsoka. I told you I could take the pain away. " I ran a hand over where it was, but I couldn't feel it anymore. I got up, and went to the fresher and looked in the mirror, him not far behind me. It was amazing. There was no pain, only a faint outline of teeth. It was like it wasn't ever there!
"How did you-?" He put his arm around me, and led me back to the bedroom.
" I told you, I can take the pain away." I turned, as did he, at the sound of Anakin coming towards my room.
"I'm afraid this time, I really must be going. When you change, I'll come for you." He traced my jawline, then I felt a whoosh of air, and he was gone. I didn't see where he went, but he was gone. Anakin entered a few seconds after.
"You ok? I thought I heard voices in here. Oh, and we're almost to Couroscant." Should I tell him? I decided it was best to keep it a secret. He didn't need to know about him, whoever he was.
"Y-yeah, I'm fine. Nobody else in here." He came in a bit further, and put his hand on my shoulder. Surprisingly, his touch felt like fire on my skin, hot to the touch. I automatically flinched, earning a concerned look from Anakin.
"What happened to you? You look so...shaken." I sighed. Ok, maybe he should know.
"When you went to scout ahead, a man showed up. The same man that was in here a little bit ago. There's something about his eyes, that when he looks at you, you can't move, or speak, or anything. He was talking about... I don't know, "others", and he bit me." I pulled down the collar to show him. "Now he keeps coming to me, claiming that he wants to help me change."
"What!?" I realized what I had said.
"I mean change into whatever he is. When he bit me, I felt him inject something into my blood. It felt like everything was out of reach, even the force." I sat down on the bed, as did Anakin. He looked at me, and put an arm around me, when I realized I was trembling.
"You said when he looked into your eyes, that you couldn't move?" I nodded.
"You also said he kept talking about changing. Do you know what he meant?" I shook my head.
"No... It's all kind of blurry. I don't really remember much, like, how I got back to the ship."
"I helped you back. You said you had a stomach ache, and came in here." I nodded.
"He came back. After you left, I was lying in bed and he out his arms around me. I tried so hard to get away from him, but he made the mark quit hurting, and everything else is a blank." I couldn't control the shaking. "He's going to come back, I know it." A rare thing for Anakin to do, he hugged me.
"I won't let him. And I promise, you won't change." I looked at him.
"How? He closed the wound, it's too late. Look at my eyes." He got up, and returned with a kit.
"Maybe if we know what he put in you, there might be a cure." I sighed.
"Ok, go ahead." He moved my right lekku, and took a syringe out.
"You sure you know what you're doing?" He chuckled.
"Trust me. Ok, here we go." He stuck it into my neck, and pulled out a small amount of blood, maybe a couple of drops. I saw him frown.
"What's the matter?" He scratched his chin, then turned to me.
"Togruta blood is red, right?" I nodded.
"Well, look at this." He held it up, and I gasped. It was dark purple, almost black. He put the sample into the device, and it beeped after a few seconds.
"Well?" He shrugged.
"The device can't make heads or tails of it..." I sighed.
"Hey, it's gonna be ok. Trust me."
SOOO? How was it? Please leave a review, they mean so much to me! Peace!
