Chapter 6
Lucy's POV
Why was everyone so worked up today. I'm not someone who would force my servants to to endless work without stopping. I'm sure there was something wrong.
I headed straight for the study chamber, where Natsu will be.
I pushed the door to revealed a room full of servants and a Gray, rather than my most most beloved. Odd. I walked over to Gray, "What is the matter upon everyone, why has everyone gotten worked up today?"
He smiled cautiously, "My Lady, it is a matter of time..." I stared at him curiously, trying to find an appropriate answer, "Today is like all days, fresh beginning," He smirked at me, "Sweet, affectionate, passion filled end."
I blushed furiously, "That is not for you to know." I murmured.
He chuckled. I eyed the floor out of embarrassment and as I was, I spotted something navy blue in Gray's hands.
"What is that in your hand?"
He seemed flustered at my sudden question. But soon controlled himself.
"Visitors, My Lady. Sometime next week I assume. Among them is a female heir, much like my Lady herself. So of course Natsu would like to bribe her into doing business with us."
Jealousy washed over me, but I managed to stay calm, "I see."
Did he fancy another woman to be his second wife, or mistress in bed?
"If it's not too much trouble. May I ask for the the Lady's name?"
"I'm afraid, they haven't mentioned her name is the letter they sent."
"Letter?"
"Yes, if I can remember. It was just the day before yesterday it had arrived."
Jealousy, and now betrayal? What is he hiding?
Without another word, I walked off. Leaving quite a confused Gray.
All along the way, I tried to ask the servants where Natsu was. They replied with not knowing his whereabouts.
I ran around the manor shouting his name, where ever he was, he would come out and hold me. I felt insecure, upset, betrayal and I wanted him to hold me and tell me it was all fine.
I reached an empty hall, "Natsu!" I shouted, ending bitterly.
I stumbled to the closest wall, slumped down and gently rested my head against the wall. Slowly my eyes stung and tears threatened to leave my eyes.
Natsu's POV
"Natsu!" Was all I heard, and all it took to have me up and running.
I burst through the door and desperately searched for her. Through our bed chamber, empty. Through the study, Lucy-less. Where was she?
I ran about, and around the corner I heard sobs. I looked around, and sure enough, there she was on the ground hugging her knees.
I walked up to her, She looked up at me and pulled at my hand as her sobs continued. I squat down and patted her hair. The sensation of her touch sent fire into my fingertips, something triggered within me. I pulled her into my embrace and held her tight. Mumbling words of comfort into her ear, "It's alright, I'm here for you. Don't cry. I love you."
She clung to my coat as I continued to sooth her, "It's alright..."
Slowly she calmed down.
"What happened?" I asked in concern.
She hit my chest weakly, "Why didn't you answer me. I called for you. I felt so insecure without your touch."
Her words went right though me. It hurt my heart so much. Her voice rippled throughout my entire body and I was stiffened.
"Please, hug me tighter..." She whispered.
And as if her words were a spell, my arms obeyed her command, her need. I kissed her hair and patted her back.
We were in no place to continue. So I picked her up and carried her into our bed chamber. I gently placed her on the bed and continued to smother her. It was clear enough to me that simple words and kisses wouldn't do much.
I striped my jacket off and placed it around her. Though it hit me again that signs of affection did not do what I meant either.
She looked at me through her watery eyes. Behind her paneled orbs were that of deep sorrow, jealousy and betrayal, "Have you bored of me that quickly?" She asked.
It confused me much, "Bored of you?" I was flabbergasted, "I wouldn't dare think that! I live only for you." I urged to win her trust again.
"Then explain of what I heard about you giving gifts to a female heir that will be visiting." She spoke bitterly, much more to come, "So what is she? Your mistress in bed?"
I clenched my fists. Cursing myself to not shamefully harass her. I took a deep breath, "Who was the fool who told you that, my dear?"
"Why does that matter? I'm sure you could just read a certain letter once again."
The only person who most possibly could have told this to her...Gray?
I stood up to leave for the door. She grabbed my hand in time to cry out again, "Please don't leave me!" I turned my head so I could see her, tears were practically dripping everywhere, "Please don't abandon me!"
I forcefully jerked my hand out of her grip and set for the door. I really just wanted to cool off. I really want to know who told her that nonsense. I want her trust. She jumped off the bed, ran to me and grabbed my arm before I could turn the handle.
With more force this time I yanked my arm away and with little caution I ignored the fact she was too close to me to miss the hit. Soft flesh was felt on the back of my hand. It was all too quick to realize what had happened.
I dared to look at Lucy. Slowly with wide eyes, I turned to look at her. She too stared back with a replicated expression.
"Lucy!" she took a step back, and shock was replaced with fear.
I walked closer and held my arms out for her. She refused to walk to me. I sighed and realized that I had been mistaken. I need to yet again, with these hands, love her.
I walked closer each time she stepped back. As we were inching closer to the bed, I ripped my shirt off. The back of her legs hit the edge of the bed.
With no further ado I pushed her shoulders and she fell back onto the bed. I crawled onto and towered above her.
It's weird, what I'm feeling now. I wanted to dominate her. Claim her like the many times I already have. I wanted her to scream out my name. She scrambled about from underneath me.
"Let me go!" She cried.
I dove down and captured her lips aggressively, not caring about her complaints or shouts. My hands explored her body. Sliding from the nape of her neck to her inner thigh.
"Don't refuse, when you know you want me..." I whispered roughly into her ear.
With my teeth I made a small tear on the fabric binding her chest...
I'm so sorry! I have been traumatized by all these assessments and tests by my school, I think I've mentioned before how evil my school is.
I happy to say that I will be releasing more and more chapters in April, cause that's when I have my school holidays.
