PAN'S POV


She walked into the room when I invited her in. For a moment I had flashbacks to Wendy's face after I told her I would not love her. She looked an absolute mess. Her face was flushed, her eyes bright blue against the red and tears that accompanied them. I was not in the mood for a lovesick girl to have to lock away.

"Is something wrong?" I asked, stating the obvious.

"Felix kissed me," she whispered between gritted teeth. That surprised me. It was no secret that Felix hated her. A flash of rage went through me, he had coveted my property. The girl was mine, as everything on the island was, and I had not offered to share. Felix would have to be disciplined. A month in a cage...perhaps he could be forced to negotiate with a mermaid for his tongue back...Priya cleared her throat, her face still blotchy and tearstained. Here we go, she'll be wanting someone to hold her and wipe away her tears.

"Well that doesn't sound pleasant."

Her lips trembled and she took a step towards me. I waited for her pleas and feelings and fears.

"Will you let me fight him?"

Now that was unexpected. I had thought for sure she would let feelings get in the way of everything. Apparently not.

"You know the rules, Priya. I have to facilitate a fight."

"That's why I asked you, Peter."

"Well, let's go take care of it then, shall we?"


I watched her standing there, I could practically see the rage pulse through her. She was furious. Whatever happened, Felix had brought it on himself by violating her without my permission. But it was a fun game to watch, anyway.

"Felix, you acted with bad form. I'm disappointed in you. I could punish you with a beating, but it seems only fair that since you took advantage of her, she be allowed to take advantage of you," I smirked. The girl was smarter than Felix, and could easily beat him in a fight, even though he had brute strength on his side.

"The bitch bit my tongue," Felix spat.

"She's one of us, Felix. Would you refer to one of your brothers as such?"

"But she-"

"She's one of us. Your punishment is being carried out by her hand, with my approval, so stop whining and get on with it," I told him sternly.

Priya gripped her sword in both hands, and went at him. I could see her fury in action, it made her strong, it made her...well, if I was to be honest it made me want to fuck her. I had told her to stay away, after all, I thought the sands of my youth would trickle through the hourglass faster if I was doing such an adult thing, but it seemed I was wrong. And well, the game she'd started was temptingly fun. Watching her now was a pleasure of it's own. There was a sheen of sweat on her peach skin, and her ebony curls were luscious as they spun with her body. The way she fueled the rage though, let it seep into her every movement...that was fun to watch. She had fire, that was certain. I chuckled as Felix ducked a swing. That one was a bit too confident in himself...but he was strong, and his sword swung about, into her shoulder, blood booming from the wound. She cried out, the sound not too different from something I'd heard her make in my bed, but she fell to the ground, gripping her bleeding shoulder.

"First blood, the fight's over," I called out. Priya clearly wasn't done though. As Felix stood with a triumphant grin, the girl's sword flew out in a fit of rage, striking him across the face. I watched as Felix grabbed his face, blood pooling through his fingers, bellowing in pain.

"That's the end of it Priya," I warned, glaring at her. She was not sated, if I had not given an order, she would have killed him then and there. She'd pay for her disobedience later, but plenty of justice had been dealt already.

"Yes Pan," she looked at me, I could see what she felt clearly on her face- pain, and craving. I was tempted to take her right then and there, but I thought there could be a better time, later. This was a game after all.

"You'll meet me later to pay for your disobedience," I told her sternly, "bad form is not tolerated here."

"I know," she whispered. She seemed honestly terrified, which brought a chuckle to my lips.

I trekked off into the forest, towards a clearing. I had the feeling that someone needed to talk to me.

"You're in dangerous waters, Pan," the shadow whispered.

"I don't quite know what you're talking about," I replied, conjuring an apple and taking a bite.

"No one is supposed to live on Neverland, and especially not girls," it hissed, "and you shouldn't be doing what you're doing."

"You were the one who said she was to be the mother of the Truest Believer. I need that heart."

"She doesn't belong here. If you keep her here much longer-"

"Peter?"

I could hear the girl's voice calling, and I looked the shadow dead on.

"Get out of here."

The girl burst into the clearing as the shadow left. Her face was scared- she knew she had something bad coming to her.

"Priya, you broke the rules," I began, pushing aside the memory of the conversation with the shadow, "and so you have to suffer the consequences."

"I understand," she murmured, looking down. She had never disobeyed and been punished before, I could see she was frightened. With most of the boys it was a beating, a week in a cage, but for her I thought to make an exception. This was going to be fun.

"Good," I grinned, "then let's play."
