Sorry this is a short chapter

Ch. 6 Unknown

Sarah sat on the floor in her apartment. The room seemed twice the size it use to be now the Goblin King and his goblins had left. She could feel the loneliness embrace her along with guilt. She never thought when first seeing that owl that she would want him in her life but now that he had left and said he would not return she missed him. How did the saying go, you never truly miss something until its gone. Surely once he had calmed down he would be back, she was sure and silently prayed she was right. As the first rays of daylight fell into the room she glanced at the clock she had at least another hour before she needed to get ready for work. Sarah made her way into the bedroom and picked up the little red book from her vanity, the one that had started everything so long ago. She quickly flicked to the page she needed even though she knew it word for word she needed to confirm what Jareth had said. The words on the page mocked her and the guilt she felt intensified, he was right she was just as cruel.

Jareth had arrived back in the throne room in a sombre mood. The goblins watched him warily waiting for a punishment that never came. Jareth lay with his leg draped across the arm of the throne his gloved hand supporting his chin, the riding crop tapping against his thigh completely lost in thought. Grumble cautiously approached the throne.

"Err scuse me Majesty"

Jareth continued to stare into space.

"what is it Grumble?"

"mmm is Lady ok"

Jareth turned and looked at the little goblin in front of him.

"Yes, she is fine."

Grumble began to move away but stopped as Jareth spoke.

"Wait Grumble, I have a job for you".

Jareth sat up right on his throne and lent down towards the goblin.

"You are to watch Sarah, if you notice anything unusual no matter how small report it to me".

"Is lady in danger?"

Jareth inwardly sighed before answering.

"I'm not sure".

He dismissed Grumble. He had noticed something during his fight with Sarah and it bothered him. As her emotions flared he could feel the change in the air like raw magic and when she had touched him he felt it bolt into him like a viper. He could sense the desire in her like a beacon as she argued with him. It felt like verbal foreplay. The problem was that if he could sense it then other Fae would as well which could put Sarah at risk. He didn't fully understand what was happening and couldn't run the risk of being near her until he did in case his magic intensified things. There was only option available to him, he would have to ask the High King and Queen for help which for Jareth was not an easy thing to do.
