"What? I won Jareth. You have no power over me. None." Sarah's voice was cold. She regarded Jareth with unmasked contempt. "You still think you can manipulate me. You still think I am a child with romantic visions of you."
Jareth was taken aback at this sudden burst of emotion. Nonethless, it was nothing he couldn't handle. "Sarah, Sarah," Jareth said sadly. "I think that perhaps you still do not understand just how much power I have."
He stepped closer to her. "I let you leave because it was my wish. I gave you incredible talent, and what did you do? You wasted it like the foolish child that you are !" Jareth's eyes were blazing with anger. "Yes, you are still a child!"
Sarah stared at him, shocked. "Talent? You gave me talent?" An instant later and Jareth was upon her, his hands gripping her wrists. "You could have been the greatest actress that ever walked the stage. I gave you numerous hints, numerous chances to realize it, but did you ever? No!"
Sarah's mind was spinning. Jareth had been behind it all? All those school plays she had won the lead in were his doing? She remembered how easy it had been. The other girls had never even had a chance, but she had always thought the talent was natural. That it was hers.
Jareth leaned close to her, his lips just inches from her ear. "Even when you refused them, I still gave you your dreams. Now I shall get to have what I want."
