Chapter 2

I was out in the garden tending to the flowers and vegetables. He forgets to tend to it and I had to bring it back to life. I was busy weeding and replanting, and changing the soil. My water pail was next to me, I couldn't wait to see how good the garden turned out since I felt it was the only thing I could right for him.

I heard a lot of noise coming from the house as I went to go investigate. I saw a bunch of things being moved to my room. My guess was that, Nidoking had arrived. I stood in the living room to see him walking up to the door with Kraven behind him.

Kraven stopped Nidoking infront of me. "There she is, that's who you'll be with. Her name is Geisha."

Nidoking's eyes locked with mine. He didn't really say much of anything to me but his eyes were focused on mine. I could feel myself become nervous for I knew Nidoking was a lot stronger than me. From what I read, he could aggressive for no reason or for a reason. What ever it meant, Nidoking meant business.

"Hello." I replied softly. "I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself. My name is Geisha." I took his hand in mine.

"It's nice to meet you." Nidoking replied. "I'm Nidoking."

Kraven grabbed Nidoking. "You better not touch her in anyway. She's not going to be your girlfriend or anything. She is nothing to you."

Nidoking growled. "I wasn't planning to and I'm not doing your damn beauty competitions! I need to be in the tough competitons!"

Kraven growled. "It's too late, you're signed up just like the rest of us here." Kraven took out a cigarette. "I'll let you two become better friends. The rest of us are going to go out to celebrate Flareon's first place victory.

"So we aren't invited?" asked Nidoking. "Is that what it is?"

The door closed as Nidoking and I were left to ourselves. I began bringing the rest of his things upstairs as he stopped me.

"Wait...I'm supposed to do it.." I replied shyly. "You don't to have to do this."

Nidoking took the things out of my hands. "I will do it. I insist."

"No...I'll get in trouble if I don't do this." I replied. "Please let me."

Nidoking let go of the bags as I turned away. "Geisha..."

I turned back a little to see him. "Yes?"

"Look at me." Nidoking replied. "Can I see you?"

I turned myself around to him as Nidoking eyed me. "You have such beautiful eyes. Do you know that?"

I stopped stiff. Those were the words Gale used to court me with. It made me feel good. I don't know what Nidoking intentions were but if it was for a relationship, I was forbidden. Kraven would have us both for that.

"Nidoking...I need to explain things to you." I replied. "I am off limits the most out of all the other girls here. I'm his prized one eventhough I'm not treated like it."

Nidoking laughed. "So, it's what he says goes? He's going to have a tough time with me. I don't too kindly to that."

"You have to obey him..." I warned.

"Listen to yourself. Are you really happy here?" Nidoking came closer to me. "I can tell you are ripping on the inside."

"Shut-up!" I snapped. "How would you even know? You just set foot in this house and don't know Kraven!"

"Well, I can sense he's alpha male of this house." Nidoking replied. "He controls you all."

I lost control of my anger and went at Nidoking as he grabbed me in a tight hold which caused me to be subdued. I was wrong for it and Nidoking was going tell me that. I never was like that unless it was Kraven.

"P-Please let go!" I yelled.

"I don't think so. So, you want to fight with me?" Nidoking still had a strong hold on me. "I think I'm the stronger pokemon here. I heard him say that you weren't level with the rest, making you the weakest."

"Let me go!" I began to flail. "Let go!"

"Not until you apologize for your rudeness towards me." Nidoking replied.

I froze as continued flailing and screaming. I realized I had no choice but to apologize. I looked back at him. "I-I...I-I'm sorry for how I acted. I was wrong."

Nidoking wasn't happy with the response since I was still in the hold. I realized I wasn't sincere, I was doing it fast so I could get out.

I continued flailing until I stopped stiff and looked back at him. "I'm sorry." I mewled. "Is that better for you?"

Nidoking released his grip. It was true of his nature. Ruthless without any reason and ruthless for a reason. Nidoking continued upstairs to our room, I could tell he wasn't happy with how I've acted. I was wrong for yelling at him since I was pained. I just didn't know how to deal up with it.

I quickly went up to our room. As I found him reading books. I didn't realize he was so intelligent.

I lightly tapped on the door as Nidoking looked at me. "Is there something you need from me?"

I was very shy. Infact, my blush was showing and then all of sudden tears came down my eyes. "I'm sorry. I don't know what came over me. I'm in a lot of pain and I lashed out. I'm really sorry."

"Pain? So, it is the truth. I knew there was something going on." Nidoking came closer to me. "I'm sorry you're so upset. I can tell a lot has been done to you."

I nodded. "I used to be a mother and I had a mate. Gale died in a tragic battle and my son went missing after. I think my son is dead to tell you the truth. I doubt I'll find him now."

Nidoking changed expressions. "...That's so sad. No, that's just awful. Now, you're with someone who doesn't treat you like you should be treated.

The tears became more. "I-I have no choice, Nidoking. I was stuck out in the snowy lands just searching. That's all I really did. Kraven found me and I willingly went with him. I wanted the pain to go away."

Nidoking looked at me. "No one should treat you less. Is the tragedy making it difficult to battle?"

I nodded. "I'm only two months widowed. It is very difficult to do what Kraven demands. I feel horrible."

Nidoking looked at me and got closer. "Well, you don't have to feel that way." Nidoking put his arm around my shoulder. "I'll look out for you. I want to make you mine."

I quickly took off Nidoking's arm. "Nidoking...We can't do this! I am forbidden!"

"So, you can't have sex?" Nidoking looked straight at me. "You can't have a relationship basically. I'm sorry I made that move...I don't know what came over me."

"It's better this way." I replied while I was blushing. "I don't want a relationship after Gale."

"Apparently not." Nidoking grabbed his books and started reading again. "Know this though, Geisha. Eventually, the needs are going to kick in."

I blushed further. How did he know? Really, how did he know? Nidoking could read me like a book. It was almost like he knew everything about me without trying. I actually...liked it. Someone actually understood what I was going though and wanted to be there for me.

Kraven never did that for me. Nidoking wanted to be close. I wanted to feel that same love that I had with Gale. I wanted to be needed, loved, and of course feel a male inside me again.

I was truly broken and I wasn't allowed to have that happiness because of Kraven.

"What are you reading?" I asked.

"An adventure." Nidoking replied. "Want to read it together?"

"I-I can't. I have to practice for my beauty competition." I replied. "Plus, we shouldn't be close like this."

"Who says?" Nidoking growled. "Why should he prevent you from having a life, Geisha?"

"We'll talk later." I replied as I began to head out the door. "You don't have plans of going to bed early tonight do you?"

Nidoking shook his head. "I'll wait up for you. I want to."

"Oh, ok." I blushed slightly as I turned my eyes towards his. "Still think my eyes are beautiful?"

Nidoking nodded. "Of course."

I giggled. I was so suprised at myself for that. I haven't giggled and laughed in two months. That's how sick I was but now I had something to be happy about.

"I will see you later." I giggled.
