Chapter 13
"Attention," Leo spoke loudly on the balcony.
'Time to come back up," Leo spoke telepathically.
He had to teach me that! I mean, telepathy was so cool! Of course, I still didn't like the whole being married thing.
"I've got to go now," I sighed and left my brother and his boyfriend. "Sebastian, be careful, my brother might try and rape you at some point." I whispered.
"Do not worry," Sebastian replied. "I've already said this, but I'm not fond of being the victim."
"I bet," I laughed and waltzed back to Leo.
"Everyone," Leo started to speak again. "I would like you all to meet the woman I had recently married." He told everyone.
"Hello," I stuttered out. Damn it all, my stage fright was kicking in. I did not like that one bit. Not one bit at all. I smiled at the crowd. It was a fake smile though.
I looked through the crowd; well I was staring at Alois.
He was staring, no, GLARING, at Leo.
He had such an adorable angry face. My gosh, that boy was bringing out my pedophile side. I didn't want to be a pedophile. But it really is hard NOT to be with that pretty little blonde.
The young blonde stormed over to Krane and Sebastian and pulled them over to Ciel. Something obviously happened between the two young masters as they seemed like they were ready to bite one another's head off as they began to talk, err, argue with one another.
Oh, how I hoped they were devising a plan to rescue the damsel in distress, a.k.a. me.
My heart began to beat faster and my chest was burning. I took some heavy breaths and clutched where my heart was. I was in a lot of pain. I wanted to scream for my brother to help me, but I couldn't.
"Missy, what's wrong," Leo said, coming to my rescue. "Are you alright?" he asked and allowed me to squeeze his hand and began to rub my back. The burning pain subsided.
"I'm fine," I huffed. "Thank you."
"Thanks good," Leo seemed relieved. So he did actually care for me. "Do you need to have a seat?" he asked, I nodded and he led me to a bench.
"Can you tell Alois I need to see him?" I asked my new 'husband'. Leo nodded and went to get him.
Alois ran up shortly after without Leo with him.
"What were you talking about with everyone?" I asked him.
"A plan," Alois told me.
I giggled. Then I brought him into a hug. "I'm so glad that you're not mad at me," I told him.
"Of course not," Alois retorted. "I'm mad at him, the one who took you away," he pointed down to Leo.
Leo was conversing with my brother. Krane looked pretty damn pissed.
"They're arguing about you," Alois scoffed. "We couldn't figure a secure plan that everyone agreed upon, so we decided to have your annoying brother talk to him. Of course, I think it's a stupid plan that won't work. It's still better than nothing." Alois made me laugh.
Leo stormed away from my brother and announced the party was over. He then waltzed angrily down a hall.
I ran after him. "Leo!" I yelled. "What happened?" I asked when I finally caught up to him.
"Look," He said as soon as I grabbed his wrist. "I know I made you marry me by force. But I think you should still give it a try," he pleaded.
"I think it would have been better if we took it slow, reconnect by friendship," I said to him. I didn't want to hurt him. He was still a good guy.
"You might have liked someone else by then!" he shouted. He was still so similar to his younger self.
"How do you know I didn't already?" I screamed. As soon as I did that, an image of Alois came into my head. Oh shit.
"You can't!" Leo cried.
"YOU can't force everything to go your way either!" I yelled at him.
"But that boy is just a child!" Leo yelled.
Wait. He knew?
"This isn't about that! It's about you taking away my freedom of choice!" I screamed more.
All of a sudden I collapsed and the pain I had previously felt had come back.
My veins began to surface, nearly bulging out of my skin.
I saw my reflection on the marble floor. I looked similar to the Leo-illusion that I've seen.
The real Leo picked me up. "Your magic has gotten out of sync," he said. "You've got to rest." He brought me to a bed.
