A/N: Thank you for all who reviewed! I hope this chapter was worth the wait. I must warn you that this is strongly rated M. Happiness hasn't found Bella completely but I swear that there will be some fluff later on. Oh and also if there are spelling errors or editing errors forgive me. I didn't want to go back and reread the chapter. It was another hard one.
Please please keep the reviews coming. They honestly help me keep writing.
Disclaimer: I do not own anyone but new characters and the story line.
Without further ado I present Chapter Seven.
"Peter! I swear when I find you that you'll wish I hadn't." I yelled out in the darkness of the tree.
For some reason Peter had wanted to play hide and seek and for some more unknown reason I had agreed. And now I couldn't find him anywhere. I was inside our home but it was dark for none of the lights had been lit. I was getting a little nervous so I shot out of the tree and into the inky night sky.
I landed on a cloud like I always did. On top of the clouds of Neverland was my most favorite place to stay. I figured Peter would know where to find me and I didn't want to play anymore. I stayed up there for an hour and when he still hadn't come looking for me I knew something was up.
I flew over the island looking for him and as I looked I let my mind wander. It had been a month and we had fallen more in love every day. I had never known contentment such as this. He loved me, a man actually loved me. He didn't just want me for my body and he never hurt me. I wasn't just a thing to him. I was a woman. I was his. I had never wanted that before, never believed that it could happen for me but now that I had it, I would fight till the death to keep it.
I heard someone talking and I followed the sound. I hid behind a tree and peeked around it.
"Peter, you are the cleverest of them all." The beautiful mermaid said in a sing song voice.
Peter was standing by a table; at least it appeared to be some type of table. It was more like a big rock with a flat top but it had plates on it and a small candle in the middle.
"Peter, you are the most handsome boy there is." The mermaid whispered sultry.
Jealousy burned in me. She couldn't act like that. I watched Peter for what'd he do. But he just seemed to ignore her as he leaned over and grabbed some sort of bag. He took out a few more stubs of candles and flew around placing them randomly around the cove. The mermaid said something else but I was already flying off into the jungles of Neverland.
How romantic was my Peter, I couldn't believe he was doing that for me. I giggled like a little girl and twirled with my arms out through the air. And then I felt a heavy rope fall on me. I let out a scream. A scream that seemed to fill the quiet jungle echoed back into my head. What was happening? I opened my mouth and screamed again.
"Peter!" I yelled out. I hadn't gone too far from him. Surely he could hear me. And then I heard laughing.
I tried twisting my body around to see his face but I couldn't.
"How did you get yourself into this mess lady?" I heard the oldest lost boy's voice. What was his name again? Oh yeah Nathaniel. Nathan. Nate.
"Nate?"
"Yeah it's me."
"Well help me out of here."
"I think I should get Peter over here to see this." Nate laughed.
"Just get me out of here. You can tell Peter the whole story."
"No need." A deep voice came from the other side of me. "What did you do Bella?" I could hear the laughter in his voice and now I was getting mad.
"I'm so glad that you think this is all a joke but could you please just get me out of here? You can make fun of me all you want after."
"Well isn't this a wonderful surprise. I set a trap for Pan and I get his lady." A voice came from the darkness.
Peter was in front of me in an instant. And Nate was tugging the rope off of me. When it was finally off, I stood up and Nate moved to stand next to Peter. I was trembling and I knew I needed to get a hold of myself.
"Hook, show yourself!" Peter called out to the darkness.
"Oh I will, Peter." His menacing voice snarled out and then another net fell on me, on all of us.
Then Hook stepped out from the shadows. The red coat and black curls with his beard and the huge hat were all what I imagined. I was a foot away from one of the most evil villains of all time. I didn't think I could be more scared but then his blue eyes turned to meet mine. I felt a chill run up my spine. It was the same look I had gotten from the man at the park all those years ago.
"Mmm, what a lovely lady you have Peter. Yes, much better than Wendy and more grown up to." Hook smiled a deliciously evil smile at Peter. "Men get the girl."
Peter was enraged. He thrashed about in the net and grabbed me close to him. He looked deep into my eyes. He seemed to be saying something to me but I couldn't figure it out. I clung to him for dear life.
Two pirates grabbed onto Nate through the net and three held on to Peter as two ripped me from his arms. That was when I came to life.
"Peter!" I screamed his name. I struggled and struggled and then I broke free! The pirates had not been ready for me to fight them.
"Fly Bella!" Peter shouted at me.
I shot into the sky but it was too late. I felt his cold, rough hand grab onto my heel and try as I could, I couldn't break free from his grasp. He pulled me down into his arms.
"Oh my dear, you won't be getting away from me. I have a great many plans for us." He breathed into my ear. I squirmed in his grasp still fighting to get free and then he held up his Hook to my neck.
"Do you want to feel this in you?"
"No!" Peter's broken cry shook me. The net had been taken off of me but two burly pirates were holding his arms behind his back. "Leave her be Hook! Your fight is with me!"
"So you love her Pan. Hmmm, how interesting the great Pan has fallen in love. So what would happen if I did this?" I felt him slide the cold metal across my neck and Peter's scream filled my head.
"Hook! Leave her alone!" He roared at the pirate.
"I don't think you're the one who is making the orders around her Pan. One wrong move on my part and I would kill her instantly."
Peter instantly stiffened and just glared at my captor. I didn't see Nate anywhere. It was just the two pirates holding Peter, and Hook in the clearing now.
"I think this should be really fun Peter. Better than killing you." He left his hook at my throat pinning me to his body. I felt the hardness against my back and I wanted to vomit. No, not again I screamed in my mind.
And then his hand trailed to my stomach. I saw Peter's eyes widen and then they fell back into the glare. Hook's hand brushed against my stomach and I closed my eyes. This isn't happening. The tears fell out of my closed eyelids and I felt the rush of embarrassment fill me. His hand moved to graze my chest and then he grasped me hard. I let out a gasp of pain and felt his hook become dangerously close to slitting my throat.
"No no my dear. This is the great part. You see you can't move without me killing you and Peter cannot do anything or I would kill you too. This is my greatest plan." He breathed against my ear again and then I felt his lips. I was shaking violently. He bit my earlobe and I struggled to remain upright. I wouldn't kill myself for that would hurt Peter and I would never hurt Peter.
Hook's hand moved to my chest again and he rubbed and pulled at my breasts. They were heaving with pain and I couldn't help but let out muffled gasps and sobs. Then his hand went under the leaves and I could have died. I would have welcomed his hook in my throat. He brushed against my nipple and I felt his breath hitch and his erection prodded me harder in my back.
"Men!" his voice was low and husky as he removed his hand. "Tie the boy to a tree; he will watch his lady be devoured tonight in front of his eyes. And not only by me."
"Hook! I swear I will kill you. Do you hear me? You will die by my steel." Peter gritted out through his teeth.
"Gag him!" Hook yelled at his men. I was helpless to do anything. I couldn't move for his hook at my throat. All I could do was be ravaged by these men.
When the pirates had tied Peter to a tree his hands and feet and then gagged him, they marched over to me with smiles that made me lose all hope.
"Now bind her hands behind her. One of you will always keep her standing and one will always hold her hands behind her back. Do whatever you wish while you are in the position. This will be my perfect revenge. Just make sure the boy has clear view of what you are doing."
I looked to Peter and his eyes found mine. They were full of sadness and grief. I tried to tug one corner of my mouth up to give him some kind of hope but I couldn't.
"I. Love. You." He mouthed to me. I could have melted if the situation had been any different.
"I. Love. You. Too." I mouthed back. We just stared at each other with sadness and then Hook realized.
"Bring me a blindfold!" He yelled and the last thing I saw was his cold blue eyes staring into mine.
Tears streamed down my face and wet the blindfold. I could feel everything more clearly with having my sight taken away.
Hands that were holding my feet kept running rough hands up and down my legs. He would kiss and bite too. And then he would get dangerously close to my core. But something always stopped him. I guessed it was Hook.
The pirate that held my hands would kiss up and down my back. Licking and biting and sucking everywhere, even the back of my neck along with my ears. But those things I could handle.
I couldn't handle Hook. His hands would squeeze my breasts hard. He would pinch my nipples and pull them and then he would move his mouth to suck and bite. I couldn't help but scream out in pain. He was hurting me and he loved it. Every scream made him more aggressive which would bring more screams. He would kiss up and down my stomach and my neck. He tried kissing me but I bit hard or moved my face. He eventually gave up settling for parts of me that he could get.
I felt his hands move to the back of me and grab my butt. He pulled up on me making my chest smash into him and he groaned. He pulled up on me harder and my center met his erection and he pulled me closer. I was disgusted. I wouldn't be ravaged again.
I opened my eyes against the blindfold and found that on my right eye a little bit had moved and I could see a bit and it shocked me what I saw. Nate! And he was free. He held a finger to his lips and pointed to something. I could only assume it was Peter. I just nodded numbly. I felt a ferocious hatred well up inside me now that I knew there was hope. Nate would get Peter and I would get away.
He must have made it to him by now. So I started thrashing. The pirates were not expecting this and once I was free of their hands I shot up into the sky. My hands were still bound so it was hard to maneuver but all I knew was that I had to get away from them. The little I could see directed me to get to the highest cloud and the farthest away. I landed on one that was amidst many and I was sure no one could see me. I twisted my head around and the blindfold fell off. They must not have tied it tight and the force of my flying helped loosen it.
I laid back on the cloud, broken and bruised. Tears would not stop falling and my body would not stop shaking. I had to be bleeding in some parts of me and I knew that bruises were going to be visible even with my chocolate skin color. I felt the whoosh of air and I couldn't bring myself to look at Peter Pan.
He put his hand on my shoulder and I flinched. I finally met his eyes and any trace of happiness had gone. He held his hands away from me and we just stared at each other for a while. I saw the agony in his eyes and I knew that I was the only one who could help make it stop.
I motioned to my hands and he moved slowly to untie them. When my bonds were free I felt more pain as I moved. But then I couldn't help it. I threw myself at Peter. I wrapped my arms around his neck and buried my face into the curve of his neck and shoulder. I let the hot tears cascade onto his body. He held me there until my tears finally stopped.
"Stay here. I promise I'll be back."
I just nodded my head. I watched him fly off the cloud and back towards Neverland. I drew my knees to my chin and wrapped my arms around myself. It had barely felt like a minute had passed when Peter came back. He was carrying a basket. He opened it up and I saw food and water and then a cloth.
He poured out some of the water onto the cloth and then he proceeded to wash my wounds. The bite marks were deep in some place and I gasped when I felt the cloth touch them. I let Peter wash me and rub some salve into the deeper marks. He washed the dried tear stains off of my face and also wiped the soft cloth against my neck. Then he put the basket onto another cloud that was floating by us and he pulled out a blanket from the basket. He laid me down on the cloud and was about to put the blanket over me when I grabbed his forearm and pulled him down with me.
He obliged and laid on his back. I wrapped my arms around his waist and he pulled the blanket over us and cradled me in his arms. A few more tears escaped my eyes but I was safe.
I wouldn't let myself think about what had happened or how we had gotten free. I was safe and with the man that I loved. That was all that mattered right now. I fell asleep with his arms around me and the blackest nightmares far from my mind.
