Chapter 3

Fang's P.O.V

"Are we there yet?" Max sighed impatiently.

"No." This was the 23rd time she'd asked me that. Maybe as part of the 'I'll do anything' Deal she should have to shut up unless I gave her permission to talk…. Nah. Why give her another reason to hate me?

"Are we there yet?" She asked AGAIN. This was starting to get on my nerves. "Hey! Silent dude! Where are we going? Does it at least have food? Cuz this girl is hungry. If you're going to kidnap me you at least need to feed me!" I sighed.

"Yes Max. This place has food. So shut up or you don't get any!" She was really pushing my patience. I let her throw lamps at me. I let her scream and yell at me. Did I get mad? No. Did I do it back to her? No. So why can't she be grateful and shut up? She started squirming in my arms.

"Can I at least walk? There aren't any lamps around…" She looked up at me. I contemplated it but shook my head.

"No. You don't know how to access the doors in my home. When I can trust you, I will teach you. But until then I will be your chauffeur of sorts." I grinned and she huffed.

"Could you at least get your arm away from my butt?" She looked mad. I readjusted my grip on her body.

"Now will you shut up?" Man all she does is complain. Maybe I shouldn't have brought her here. Psh as if I would ever regret that.

She thought about it before sticking her tongue out and shaking her head no. Now it was my turn to huff in annoyance.

"Can't you just cooperate? It would make things so much easier." I explained to her. She let out a harsh laugh.

"Why would I ever cooperate with you? You kidnapped me. Not to mention The fact that Maximum Ride never does anything she doesn't want to do." The look on her face was of pure hatred," So good luck in making me say any vows."

"Tsk. Tsk. Tsk. Maximum I can make you do anything I want. I would just prefer it if you did it of your own free will." I smiled at her.

"I WILL LOVE FANG FOREVER!" her hand popped up and covered her mouth. She looked surprised.

"Told you. Look we're here. I have an old friend here today so please be on your best behavior…. If you have one. He knows about the marriage. So don't worry about that." She was going to meet Iggy. Or in others words: God.

*Gasp* How can the devil be friends with God? Well we have an understanding. I punish his sinners and he well, he just leaves me alone. But in order for this to work, we visit regularly. He's also checking to make sure Max really loves me. Because if she doesn't then she'll be taken from me. And if I take her back Heaven and Hell will go to war.

"Okay. So what's the catch? Are you going to mind control me again? So I look like the 'perfect bride'" She sneered.

"If you can't act like it yourself, Yes. I don't want you to hate me but I'm going to do anything and everything in my power to keep you here with me. It's kind of like the Hades and Persephone myth. Only this time it's for real." I honestly don't want to have to control her but what am I supposed to do? Let her run her mouth to God and have her taken away from me? Nevermind. Don't answer that.

MAX'S P.O.V

Finally Fang put me down. He was creeping me out with his control over my body and willpower. I guess I would have to comply with his wishes willingly or be forced to. Man this sucked. If only I hadn't wussed out on dealing with mom….

MOM! OH CRAP! How is she taking my disappearance? Oh no! I have to get out of here. I have to get back home. I started panicking again.

Fight or Flight? Choose Maximum. The voice chimed in. I was Maximum Ride! I could handle anything. Anything but this. So naturally I chose Flight. I was tearing down the hallway. Running as fast as I could to the window at the end. All I had to do was bust it and I'd be free. And dead. FYI All FANG has to do is mind control you again. And the WHAM! You're his again. Shit, Shit, Shit. What was I doing?

I halted and started walking back to Fang. I smiled at him. He was just standing there amused.

"Trying to run away? Not very smart…" He told me.

"Nope. Just kidding. I was just…. Wanting to see your.. reaction?" I forced another smile and looked sheepishly at him. He looked like he bought it but I wasn't quite sure.

"Remember Max. Best behavior." He smile at me then took my arm. Next thing I knew, We were in some sort of dining room with a table chock full of food. My stomach grumbled.

"Why hello. Long time no see Fangles." A man I didn't notice before stepped out infront of Fangles and I. I snickered. Fang grumbled.

"Why don't you introduce us Fangles?" I asked patronizingly to my future husband. The guy was attractive. He had pale skin, blonde hair, and cloudy blue eyes. He still wasn't quite as handsome as Fangles Though.

"Max this is Iggy. Iggy this is Max, my bride-to-be." My stomach lurched at the thought of that.

"So you do know I'm God, Right?" Iggy said.

I blanched at that. "Won't be the weirdest thing I've found out today. But No I didn't." He smiled at me.

Fang cleared his throat. "Watch yourself, Iggy." He warned. Iggy just laughed. He took my hand and led me over to the table. He pulled out my chair for me then sat down beside my seat. I shot Fang a nervous glance. He was fuming. I smiled reassuringly at him. Hoping he would get the message to calm down so I wouldn't have to deal with an angry Fang later. He didn't.

"So Max, How did you meet Fang?" He asked me. Smiling as if he knew I didn't really love Fang.

"A while back ago. We met at the mall. I was working in Hot Topic when he walked in. It was love at first sight." I got angry. I didn't say those words. Fang did. Through me of course.

"Ah. I see." He looked at me weird. We started to eat and joke around. I was really enjoying myself. He was, too. But Fang wasn't.

"Alright. That's enough. Come on Max. We have certain arrangements to make regarding the marriage ceremony tomorrow." I gulped. I was getting married TOMORROW? I'm only 16. I can't be getting married! I'll never be able to escape then!

Iggy's P.O.V

Why did Fang have to get the Girl? Why couldn't I? When he announced that Him and Max had to go, Her face adopted a panicked expression.

"But…. I want to stay and talk with Iggy." She said through deep calming breathes.

"Yeah. Let her stay and talk with me. You can make the arrangements by yourself can't you? You're a big boy." I backed Max up.

"No. Max come." Max's eyes sparked with anger and her cheeks flushed.

"I am NOT your dog. Do NOT tell me to COME. You are not my master." She all but screamed at him. He flinched, realizing his mistake. She was a spitfire, That was for sure. She'd definitely give Fang a run for his money, if I allowed their marriage. But I had to make her love me instead of him in a day….. Maybe I could get him to change the date. I am God…..

"Sometimes I wish you were. Then you might actually listen…" Fang mumbled more to himself than to her but she still heard. And it was the WRONG thing to say. Her whole face was red now and she was shaking. I put my arm around her to try and steady her body. Maybe even calm her down. It didn't work.

She leaped out of her chair and was on top of him in a second. She had some sort of food in her hand. She smushed it in his face. Then she got off of him and walked back over to me.

"Sorry you had to see that." She looked embarrassed. Fang was livid. His hands caught fire like they usually do when he's extremely pissed off. I pulled Max behind me.

"Fang. Don't do anything you will regret. I'm not so sure if I should allow this marriage or not. It may be best if she comes up to Heaven for a few days so you can calm down." I said very slowly and clearly so he didn't ge the wrong idea. He growled at me.

"No. You may be God but you have no power over my domain. Be gone or the deal is off." He said it quietly but the anger in his voice was still as clear as day.

I sighed and transported myself back to Heaven. Now how was I supposed to save Max?
