Chapter 2 Josephine's birth
The whole way back to the palace neither of them spoke. Both of them were thinking of the future. Daine, of how sad and dismal it would be without Numair and the others, and Ozorne of how he could use Daine. As soon as they arrived, Ozorne steered them directly to his rooms. There was tea waiting for them when they got there. They both sat down and he motioned for her to have some but she wouldn't.
He sighed in exasperation, "It's not drugged this time, child. What would be the point in that."
"Why should I believe you? You did this for no reason. Seems to me you do a lot of things for no good reason." Daine retorted and was surprised when he smiled.
"I love this attitude of yours, how you so open with your feelings. Its so refreshing," Right then his facial expression changed, "But be warned I won't take to much of it. I will not stand for any disobedience on your part. Anyway, why would I drug you when I already have you right where I want you."
"You don't have me," Daine almost yelled.
"Oh but I do. You see, no one who cares knows you are here so no one is coming to your rescue. You are mine, just as you ought to be. And you'll be mine for good in two years." He said with a smile.
"What do you mean yours for good?" Daine asked.
"Didn't I tell you?" he said innocently, "We're to be wed."
"We most certainly are not!"
"We are, my dearest, we are. In two years time we will be married. I hate to have you wait that long but tradition is tradition."
"I WILL NEVER MARRY YOU!" Daine screamed, getting up and running to the door. She wasn't fast enough though, and the Emperor Mage tackled her. He turned her over and pinned her down. He then forced a kiss on her.
"You will marry me whether you like it or not. Although, by then, I think you will."
"I'll run!" Daine declared.
"Then you'll die. You may not have notice it yet, but you are wearing a bracelet, an Acyle bracelet."
"Yeah so" Daine said, fighting against her captive.
"So, it will kill you if you enter a place out of a certain range without my permission. By the way, the range is only about two miles. Also you can't take it off, only I can."
"Then I'll die" Daine snarled.
"I thought you might say something like that so I've taken the necessary precautions. If I find you dead of anything other natural cause then I will order an attack on Tortall. And since we've signed a peace treaty, I don't think they'll be expecting it." Ozorne hissed. This silenced Daine. Even though She could not stand the thought of living out her life here, she couldn't die knowing that her death could cause the deaths of those she holds closest to her heart.
Ozorne could tell by the look in her eyes that he had won and let it show in his smile. "Now, you will be treated as a queen here since in the future you will be, but you will have few responsibilities around here. You will only be in charge of the animals until you can handle royal duty. And do not think I am stupid, any animal seen carrying a note of any sort without my permission will be shot immediately. Plus that little bracelet will prevent you from being able to use your powers. Do you understand so far?" Daine nodded, silently crying.
"That's a good girl. Further more you will have your own cottage about two hours from here that you will be allowed to go to anytime you wish. It is in the middle of the woods so you will find it to you liking. You will have a two-mile radius there too. You can move into it next week. You will still have to come here whenever I feel you need to be. And don't forget that you have to ask before you can go anywhere else." With that, Ozorne forced another kiss before letting her up. Daine practically ran to door but his voice stopped her as soon as her hand touched the handle.
"Oh, and for obvious reasons, your name will be changed. You will no longer go by Veralidaine Sarrasri."
"Really, my lord," Daine said with the hatred she felt in every word, "then what is my name?"
Ozorne thought a minute and then said, "Josephine Twain. Your name is now Josephine. So, Jo, you may go to your room now," he laughed as she turned to leave.
