Fading Light
Chapter 7
I honestly couldn't believe what he'd just said to me. I mean I wanted to kiss him but he hadn't even tried to hold my hand or hug me. "You want to have sex with me?" I asked confused.
"Yes." He said looking down and I swear he looked ashamed.
"Why?" I asked still confused. I was completely clueless as to where this was coming from.
"Lizzy, you're beautiful." He said softly getting close enough that he could brush my hair behind my ear. I couldn't believe he called me Lizzy though. No one had ever given me a nickname before and it made my heart swell. "And your smart even though you've been crazy sheltered your whole life and I just like you." He told me softly.
I really didn't have a clue what to say back but I couldn't stop smiling. I just pulled him into a hug and didn't want to let go. "Ok." I told him softly while hugging him. "I like you more than I've ever liked anyone before and if Nicola does end up finding us I don't want my first time to be with him." I said pulling away. "I'm pretty sure I love you." I told him softly still smiling from ear to ear until he pushed me away.
"No Lizzy." He told me softly. "If we do anything it won't be now and you won't have a thought of Nicola in your head."
"What? Why are you saying that?" I asked him not understanding. It felt like my heart was sinking in my chest. Why would he say no to me when he'd just said he wanted it moments ago?
"Right now you're pretty sure that you love me. I'm not going to do anything more then hold you and maybe kiss you until you are sure that you love me and we're out of the country so you're free to meet other people and experience life." He told me gently. I still felt rejected though. Nothing he said would change that.
"Ok." I said softly pulling away from him. I didn't really have an option other than agreeing. "How much longer do you think it will be before we can leave?" I asked softly.
"Maybe another 2 weeks at the most. Another week at the soonest." He said shrugging standing up getting ready to leave. "I will get you out of here Lizzy and once we are if you still want to have sex with me you won't hear a no again." He told me with a bit of a smirk.
*~*FADING LIGHT*~*
Nicola was enjoying one of his servant girls when Collin finally called him. "Yes?" he asked quickly slightly out of breath.
"Am I interrupting something?" Collin asked. He'd never heard Nicola out of breath before. The man however evil was always impeccably put together and calm.
"Just a whipping," Nicola responded smoothly. "One of the servants got a little too comfortable and needed a reminder of her place in this house."
"Well you might be willing to grant her a little mercy. I have a led on the girl. And I have a fairly good feeling about it." Collin said happily. Every step closer to the girl was a step closer to his freedom.
"Well that's good news. Looks like I'll be celebrating tonight." Nicola said with a wicked smile.
Collin wasn't all that sure what happened next but he heard a girl screaming and then the line went dead. He figured that he was better off clueless. If he didn't know what Nicola did then he couldn't use it to keep him around. He felt bad for the girl though. He felt bad for the princess but that wasn't going to stop him from finding her. Finding her meant he'd get his life back and after all it was survival of the fittest.
He simply pocketed his phone and headed towards the Corner Pub. It was a hole in the wall bar in a fairly poor part of the city. That's were Davis met House and that's were Collin was hoping to find him too.
~*~FADING LIGHT~*~
Nicola laughed softly to himself when the servant girl finally passed out. She'd taken far more torture then he'd expected but there was no doubt in his mind that she was thoroughly broken now. He called for some guards to get her and take her back to her room and he continued to smile as he watched them drag away her limp form. He couldn't wait to make the Princess his completely. He didn't just want to break her though. He wanted to destroy her so he could put her back together and make her the perfect little slave. After all every King needed a queen that would not only obey any command but also one that would fall all over herself trying to make sure that she pleased him perfectly. She'd be his or he'd tear the kingdom apart since the deal would be broken if he didn't get her.
