Hi everyone. Got the next chapter for you to read and review. One note, this chapter consists of two pov, one is author and the other is Marcie. So let me know what you think.
Chapter 4
On the other side of the portal;
A man was pacing in his room. Back and forth. Back and forth. Over and over. He was huffing something to himself and moving his arms up and down in an exaggerate manner. He couldn't believe that after all this time he still didn't have her in his claws. How could she have escaped? – He thought. She wasn't supposed to go back, not yet. And that other man, who took her with him, he hated him with all his evil soul.
"Are you still thinking about that damn bird?" – A woman's voice behind him startled him out of his thoughts but he recovered quickly.
"What do you want Lilith?" – The man asked, turning to face the woman.
Lilith Darkstar was a woman like no other. She had long fiery red hair that would curl when she would surface to the human world, and deep, evil black eyes. She was a tall woman but she still insisted on wearing heals. She thought it made the men around her know that she was in charge and all of them are beneath her. She also insisted on wearing the tightest, revealing outfits that she could get her hands on. She was in love with this man in front of her, but to her dismay he wanted someone else and that angered Lilith to no end.
"I came to see if you wanted some company" – She said in a seductive voice, walking closer to him, moving her body in ways that it would make other women years to learn, but she did it effortlessly.
"I know you Lilith, you cannot fool me, now what is it?" – The man asked again, getting angrier this time.
He couldn't understand why Lilith insisted on trying to seduce him every time he came back from the human world. He had told her countless times that he isn't interested in her, but Lilith took no notice of his words. He had thought sometimes to just kick her out but the creatures that they were, he knew he could do that. He was their leader, their mentor and no creature had ever been kicked out.
"Oh why must you treat me so badly, my lord? You know I will do whatever you wish of me" – Lilith said to the man, moving her body even closer to him, batting her eyelashes and pouting her deep crimson lips.
"And you know that I am not interested" – He said, grabbing her by her shoulder and looking deep into her eyes, "Why can't you understand that?"
He pushed her away and sat down in a large, plush black chair, holding his hand to the side of his face. He couldn't wait to get his love back and finally shut everyone up who said that their species couldn't be together. He would prove them all wrong. It didn't matter what they thought. All it mattered was what he felt and thought.
"You don't mean that my lord" – Lilith said sitting on the floor between his legs on her knees, "I know what you want" – She kept saying, while slowly unbuttoning his black shirt and running her hand down his chest, feeling the skin under her fingers. Her lips slowly touched his skin and when he didn't push her away or say anything, Lilith looked up at him and saw him looking at her. Not in anger or hatred like he usually looked at her, but in lust and hunger.
She continued to kiss his skin, and then moved higher to his collarbone, and then his neck that he allowed her to kiss, moving his head back to rest on the chair. Feeling bold, she sat on top of his lap, her legs either side of him and kissed him full oh the lips. He kissed her back and they battled their tongues for dominance which he won and grabbed her hips with his arms and lifted her up never breaking the kiss and walked to the bed where they both up tearing clothes off of each other and doing things that some would wonder if it shouldn't be illegal.
Back on the light side;
"Marcie, get your butt out of bed and come join us" – someone was saying but I too tired to get up. I only fell asleep a few hours ago, and have no interest in whatever that person was talking about.
"No" – I muttered under the covers that were protecting me from the harsh light outside.
Then I felt them poke me all over and when I couldn't take it anymore, I threw the covers of me and jumped on whoever was standing there. This turned out to be Jeff.
"Oh, it's you" – I said nonchalantly and got off of him and walked away.
"Yes, it's me. Come on, mother summoned you" – Jeff said to me.
"What does she want this time?" – I asked, mostly to myself.
"I'm not a mind reader Marcie, you should remember that" – Jeff answered.
"Ugh whatever Jeff" – I said when I finished getting dressed. Good thing I packed some clothes with me, I can't stand those white robes everyone wears around here, "Come on then, let's go"
"Marcie wait" – He said when I was almost out the door. So close.
"Now what?" – I asked turning around.
"Will you tell me what is it so bad that I have allegedly done to you?" – Jeff asked.
"If you don't remember then I am not going to tell you. You did it, so you should know" – I said face completely void of any emotion.
"You aren't being really fair, Marcie" – He said coming closer to me.
"And I need to be fair because..?" – I asked, crossing my arms on my chest.
"Because I don't know what the hell I have done, damn it" – he said.
"Why don't you try smashing something up, I bet that will go well with your argument" – I said sarcastically, "Come on moron, let's go"
"You are so insufferable sometimes" – He said.
"I know, thanks. Anything else you want to say?" – I asked.
"Yeah, I do" –he said but remained silent.
"Well then?" – I asked.
"Maybe when the stars will fall" – He said and walked pass me, "Let's go"
Oh you infuriating ... there isn't a word invented yet for what he is.
I caught up with him a moment later but both remained silent for the duration of the walk. Mother was floating in the air in the main hall that I arrived in when we reached her. She noticed us standing there waiting for her so she came back down.
"Marcie dear, did you sleep alright?" – She asked, again hugging me, just like last yesterday.
"yes, mother, fine, thank you" – I said when she released me from her death grip, "You wanted to see me?"
"Yes, I wanted to know if you plan on returning to the human world again" – Mother asked.
"When?" – I asked showing my excitement.
"Whenever you wish. You are not a prisoner here though I do wish to make it clear that you will be required to return home once in a while. You cannot escape from your duties forever" – She said.
"Of course mother, thank you" – I said.
"Not at all, now why don't you go and train." – She said to me smiling, then turned to Jeff, "You'll help her, wont you?"
"Of course" – Jeff said to my mother.
"Wait, you want me to fight with him?" – I asked shocked and angry,"There is no way in hell".
And that earned me a slap across the face.
"You will not speak of that place here Marcie, you know the rules" – Mother said, "Now hush and go, both of you."
"Yes mother" –I said and walked behind Jeff to the training ground.
Lilith left the confides of the man's room after she once again had proven that she is still irresistible to him, no matter how much she had tried to deny it. She didn't care that he would push her away from him sometimes, or the words he would call her, she only cared that she got to be with him, and once she would get rid of that angel that he wanted, that bird as she liked to refer to her she would win him over and he would love her like she deserved.
Lilith had seen the bird woman and couldn't grasp why he was so interested in her. She was good and everything that they stand for. Lilith on the other hand was evil and dark just like her love, so why did he seem so interested in her?
She made her way to the portal that would take her to the human word and wrote a letter to one of her minions.
Alert me immediately when the bird will land, but do not harm her. If necessary keep her occupied till I get there. Your services will be greatly rewarded if the mission is a success, if not, you know what will happen to you.
L.D.
Lilith sealed the letter, wrote the name of her minion on the front and sent it through the portal.
I'll show him that she isn't worthy of him. - She though. She walked to her room and had a shower and burned the clothes that she was wearing previously. She went to her closet and chose a dark lilac corset type top and black leather trousers with black heals. She sat in front of her mirror and brushed her hair. She didn't know why but this activity always calmed her and made her think clearer.
She thought about that wretched bird woman and what she would do to her once she had her in her claws. She would pluck every feather out of the bird's wings and burn them in front of her. She would beat her over and over until she was begging for death and then out of the goodness of her heart, Lilith would burn the bird until there is nothing left but ask.
She knew of course that her lord won't be too happy with her behaviour at first, but then Lilith would kiss him and promise him that he doesn't need her, that Lilith will take care of him and be there for him and love him until her dying breath. And he would be so pleased with her afterwards that he will proclaim her his equal and then both of them would rule hell.
"So, how do you want to do this?" – Jeff asked when we were dressed in our combat clothes, thank fully they were grey and not white.
"Like this" – I said and punched him in the face, getting in position for his attack.
"I wasn't ready Marcie" – He cried but got into position as well.
"Right, because the enemy will always wait till you are ready" – I said and punched him again, with an added kick which he blocked.
"None the less, you aren't doing it right, you are getting your emotions out, and we both know that you are supposed to hide your emotions from the opponent" – Jeff said and tried to hit me but I dogged out of the way and punched him in return.
"You know nothing about my emotions, so why don't you shut up" – I said, just pissing another hit.
"I know more that you think, plus I thought you were angry at me" – He said, knowing it would piss me off even more and I would lose concentration.
"Shut up, I am angry but I rather not talk to you about it while I'm trying to fight" – I said and threw punches at him one after another. Some hit him, some he managed to doge.
"Hit a nerve, did I?" – He said and kicked me in the side.
"Ouch, shit. Fine, you want to talk, let's talk" – I said kicking him."This is for lying to me" *punch* "This is for being an asshole to me" *punch* *kick* "This is for making me like you, for making me feel something and then taking it away from me" *punch* "For making me want you, for making me hate you and for making me love you" – I said and attacked him with all my anger.
"You love me?" – He said momentarily frozen and I took that opportunity to swing my last punch as hard as I could, but he moved out of the way at the last second making me fall on the floor on my back.
"Answer me Marcie" –He said, trapping me underneath his body, his knees on the side of my waist, holding my arms so I wouldn't punch him.
"Get off me, Jeff" – I said.
"Not until you answer me" – He said, and leaned down, closer to me.
I couldn't stand having his face so close to mine after everything that he's done. Even though I still had feelings for him, I would never admit them, not to him.
"No, I don't love you Jeff, not get the hell off me" – I yelled at him, but he wouldn't move.
"I don't believe you" – He said and then had the nerve to kiss me.
I let him kiss me for a few moments before I kicked him with my knee in his privates and pushed him over and away from me. He was still doubled over in pain as I stood up and faced him before leaving.
"Stay the hell away from me" – I said with venom in my voice and left.
