A week later Maria sighed as she pulled out of the drive-way, watching Peyton and David laughing on her front porch. She hated to leave him there but she needed answers. She needed to find a way to free him. To release him from his punishment, even if she couldn't have him for herself.
She stepped into the store at the market place and searched for David's sister. She would have the answers.
"Maria?" She heard Anastacia ask. "Is there something I can help you with?"
"I hope so. I need to know if there is a way to release your brother from the lamp." Maria said calmly.
"Come with me." She said, leading Maria to a room at the back of the store. The room was filled with books and Anastacia grabbed one off the shelf.
"I've been studying this since I found out that David was banished to the lamp. I never told him because I never expected him to find a woman that could release him. But the day I saw you I knew you could do it." Anastacia said, opening the book. "You have to send him back to the lamp before you can release him."
"No I can't do it. I promised him that I'd do everything I could too..." Maria began, shuddering at the thought of David having to spend another second in the dark.
"You have to do it." Anastacia stated. "You also have to love each other. If your love isn't real then it won't work. You go to Greece, to the tomb and find the medallion. Destroy in the fire and if your love is real then he will be released from his lamp."
"What if it's not?" Maria asked.
"Then he'll be stuck there forever." Anastacia said. "There are no second chances. You can do it. I know he loves you. And I know with my own breathe that you love him."
Maria took a deep breath and looked at Anastacia.
"You'll go with me to Greece won't you?" Maria asked.
"Of course. I have a pretty good idea where Athena's tomb is." Anastacia said.
"If I put him back in the bottle will he have to be with...be with..." Maria began.
"More mistresses before then?" Anastacia asked.
"Yes can I put him back and have someone keep him?" Maria asked.
"I could 'buy' him and not put him on the shelf." Anastacia suggested.
"You'll keep him in the light. Promise me." Maria said. "Promise you will keep him in the light at all times. Put him in front of a television or something."
"I promise." Anastacia said.
Maria hugged her and returned to her house. She said her goodbye's to Peyton and walked upstairs, finding David laying on their bed.
Their bed? How Maria wished that could be true someday. How she hoped that this all worked.
"David?" Maria whispered into his ear, laying next to him. "David?"
She kissed him lightly on his lips, letting her tongue stroke the outline of his lips lightly. She laughed when she felt him smile beneath her lips.
"To what do I owe the pleasure?" He asked, wrapping his arms around her.
"David." She said, rubbing her hand up and down his back. "I'm ready."
"Are you sure?" He asked, looking into her eyes.
"I'm sure." She whispered, kissing him and letting her hand run down his hard chest.
She felt David removing her clothes and laying her back on the bed. And she watched like a voyer as he stood and removed his own clothes. This was so different than when he'd first shown up naked. Seeing him now had a different effect on her. She could see herself with him like this, every night. But it couldn't be. Not yet. Just this one night and she could only hope that she could get him out, and fast. And hope that he wouldn't hate her for sending him back.
She felt David kiss his way up her leg toward her warm center. She felt his tongue touch her there and bucked her hips. David's strong hands grabbed them and held them in place and he assaulted her entrance with his tongue. She let her hands grasp the back of his head and couldn't get enough of him.
"That's it baby. You like that?" He whispered against her core.
"MMM hmmm." She moaned, feeling her orgasm come over her.
Her legs were still shaking when she felt David move up her body and felt his erection rubbing agaist her entrance.
"You're sure about this?" he asked.
"I'm positive." She whispered, wrapping her legs around his waist and encouraging him to take her.
She felt the head enter her at first and then little by little the rest followed until she couldn't breathe. She felt him pull out slightly and plunge deeply into her. She screamed as the pain overtook her body and she felt herself stretching around his erection.
"It's okay baby. Just relax." He whispered.
When he felt her muscles relax around him he began to move again. Maria felt the pleasure take her over. Felt tingles all through her body, saw bright lights behind her eyelids. And for the first time in 2,000 years David felt the unfamiliar feeling of an orgasm coming over him as her muscles spasmed around his erection signaling her own orgasm. David screamed her name as he released his seed inside of her. Released his seed for the first time in what seemed like forever.
He rolled off of her and held her to him afraid to let go. Afraid that if he woke it would all be a dream. Afraid that she'd be gone.
The next morning when he woke up he saw his lamp sitting on the table next to the bed and saw Maria sitting on the edge of the bed, crying.
"What's wrong baby?" He asked, jumping out of the bed. "Did I hurt you?"
"No." Maria said. "But I'm afraid I'm about to hurt you."
"What are you talking about?" He asked, looking between her and the lamp. "No...no."
"David. I order you to return to the lamp." She whispered.
She heard the screams of her name as the smoke filled the room and he was sucked back into the black hole. She picked the lamp up and drove to the market, finding Anastacia in her store.
"You promised to take care of him. No darkness. He likes to watch wrestling and Ultimate Fighting Championship. Anything violent. Must be the warrior in him." Maria whispered, handing the lamp to her. "I'll see you next month to go to Greece. That's the quickest I could get my release. Hopefully it won't take long to find the tomb."
Maria walked out of the market and felt as if she'd left her entire life, heart and sole behind. But she had, hand't she. She got in the car and drove off.
"Don't worry big brother she'll be back for you." Anastacia whispered to the lamp in her hand.
David sat on the floor of the lamp and looked at his little sister. He couldn't believe Maria had sent him back. What had he done? He was sure she'd loved him.
"I hope you're right Ana. I hope your right." He whispered to the empty lamp.
