Teagan was lying in bed, still unable to move. Shadow left her. He covered her with the blankets and left after he… he was done with her. Teagan was in tears, she wanted to move, but the only thing she can move is her fingers. Still, the position is wearing off. Soon she will be able to move again. Teagan sighs, she sees what Shadow meant by her being his wife by the end of the day. How cans he go back to Sonic after this? Teagan closes her eyes, it doesn't matter because she's not going home. She then heard someone walk in so she opens her eyes and sighs as she saw Shadow hovering next to her.

"Still can't move I see." Shadow said and Teagan sighs. Shadow walks away and Teagan takes a deep breath. "Don't worry, it should wear off soon." Shadow tells her.

'Not soon enough.' Teagan thought.

"You will marry me." Shadow tells her and Teagan sighs. Shadow walks over and sits next to her.

'What choice to I have now?' Teagan asks herself as she looks away. Shadow clamps her chin and makes her look at him. Shadow then smiles as he kiss Teagan. Teagan sighs.

"That's what I thought." Shadow said as Kira walks in. "Kira." Shadow said smiling.

"Can she move yet?" Kira asks.

"No, not yet." Shadow replies.

"Then help me dress her." Kira tells him and Shadow nods. Shadow helps Teagan up who sighs. Kira puts the dress on Teagan who moans. Teagan managed to put her arms in the sleeves and Kira smiles. "She's getting stronger." Kira said.

"Good." Shadow said as he puts Teagan's tiara on. Teagan clings to Shadow's shoulder as she tries to stand. Shadow smiles.

"Make she has her strength back before you come out." Kira tells him as she walks to the door. "Father is here." Kira adds walking out and Teagan looks at Shadow shock. The dark king is here.

"That's right, he has my mother's ring and you will say yes in front of him." Shadow tells her and Teagan sighs. If he's doing this in front of the dark king, she has to say yes. He would kill her or her friends if she says no.

"I-is it true he sold his soul to stay young?" Teagan asks softly and Shadow chuckles.

"Well not young, he did it when he was 57. He's old, but at least he doesn't look 100 years old, my mother did the same as well." Shadow explains and Teagan sighs. Shadow kiss Teagan on the lips. "Can you walk?" Shadow asks.

"I don't know." Teagan replies softly, she's barely got her voice back. Shadow walks in front of Teagan, still holding her up and Teagan looks at him. Shadow takes a step back and Teagan takes one forward. She can just walk, though she needs Shadow's help. Shadow links arms with Teagan and the pair slowly start walking. They walk into the throne room to see Kira, Thomas and Liam with an older man. He has grey hair, green eyes and is wearing a black shirt, grey pants and brown boots.

"Here they are now Mephiles." Thomas said and Mephiles looks over.

"I don't believe it." Mephiles said, walking over and Teagan sighs.

"She is still a little weak." Shadow tells his father. Mephiles chuckles.

"Will she say yes?" Mephiles asks.

"She will." Shadow replies as he lets Teagan go. Teagan sighs, at least she can stand on her own. Teagan then takes her gloves off and sighs. Mephiles grabs her hands and got a better look at Teagan's bruise wrists.

"Please, they still hurt." Teagan pleads and Mephiles looks at Liam.

"I told you we had her hanging in a cell." Thomas tells Mephiles.

"Why haven't you gotten a healer to heal her?" Mephiles asks.

"We haven't got her to do it yet, we weren't sure if Teagan will say yes. If she said no, she would have gone straight up." Liam explains and Teagan looks at him shock. If she said no, she would be back in that dark cold cell. She can't go back there, she can't. Mephiles looks at Teagan, then lets her hands go. Teagan sighs.

"They just sting a bit, they are fine." Teagan whispers. Shadow walks over and Mephiles smiles as Kira walks over.

"Shadow." Kira said, handing a gold ring over. Teagan looks at Shadow who grabs Teagan's left hand.

"Teagan, will you marry me?" Shadow asks.

"Yes." Teagan replies with a smile and Shadow slides the ring on. Teagan looks at it. It was beautiful. Mephiles chuckles and Teagan looks at him.

"Shall we have the wedding here?" Mephiles asks.

"That would be amazing, I'll get the rest of the family." Kira said walking off.

"Liam, tell the servants we have a wedding to organise." Thomas tells Liam who walks off.

'I hope I did the right thing.' Teagan thought.

"Come on Teagan." Shadow said and the pair walks off.

"How many people are in your family?" Teagan asks softly.

"Well I'm the youngest, but if you want to add my siblings' partners and kids… that's 30… and… around 62 of us all up." Shadow replies and Teagan looks at him shock. "Well 63 if you want to add Ajay." Shadow adds and Teagan sighs. "And you, 64." Shadow adds.

"Why do you want me?" Teagan asks.

"Why, because you are beautiful, plus to make your father pay." Shadow replies and Teagan sighs. "Would rather be hanging in that dark cold cell?" Shadow asks.

"I… no, please don't make me go back there." Teagan pleads as Kira walks in.

"The rest of the family should be here tomorrow." Kira tells them.

"Great." Shadow said and Teagan sighs. Two was bad enough, how is going to get through with the whole family. "What is it?" Shadow asks.

"Nervous." Teagan replies and Shadow chuckles.

"You'll be fine." Shadow tells her and Teagan sighs as she walks to the window. She needed air and knows she can't leave this room.

"You know, if you swear you won't run off, we can't let you walk around." Kira tells her and Teagan sighs. The ring now ties her to Shadow, she needs at least able to walk around.

"I swear, please don't leave me lock in this room." Teagan begs as she walks to Kira who smiles.

"I'll see what I can do." Kira said walking out and Teagan sighs.

"Please don't leave me in here, I promise I won't leave or even try to." Teagan promised Shadow who chuckles as he walks in front of Teagan, wrapping his arms around her waist and pulls her close.

"You also need to promise you won't fight me." Shadow tells her.

"Okay, I promise." Teagan said and Shadow kiss her, Teagan place her hands on Shadow's chest. Shadow then breaks the kiss and Teagan rest her head on Shadow's shoulder. She has no choice, she is stuck with Shadow. All she could think about was Sonic and Sonette. She knows they are going to be mad at her, but she's scared. She doesn't want to be put back in that cell, she doesn't want to be tortured and she doesn't want to be lock away again, not again. Teagan closes her eyes and Shadow smiles. He has won, Teagan is his.

'Soon my dear, you will carry my child.' Shadow thought.
