Jareth's smile would haunt me for the rest of my life, I realized so soon. He would never give u. I would never stop running from him. He would always find me in the end. Where was I to go? What could I do? I would be trapped forever in his grasp. He would never let me go would he? Now what could I do to get away?
"Violet, come with me. Now.'' He geld out his hand. Stepping over Trenedy I took it. He grabbed my hand fiercely and possessively and I was yanked into his chest.
"I will never let you go, and never let you get hurt like that again!''
"You aren't sorry for what you did! You hurt me! You've threatened me!'' It took me a moment to realize that we were back in the throne room.
"I love you Violet.''
"No you do not! You don't love!''
"I'm not a daemon.''
"You barely know me and you claim to know me! Harry told me about marriage and love. How they go on dates and they hang out with each other. They learn and get to know each other until they marry. All you have done is insist on threatening me to get me to marry you. This will not make me love you Jareth! Not for real. If you want a pretend fake wife, that is all that you will get from me!'' I spoke to Jareth like I've never spoken to anyone before. Not even Trenedy when he stole something of mine.
"You dare to talk to your future husband like that Violet? I love and have compassion for you. All you return to me is hate, anger, rage, and despise for me! Why can you not see how much I love you?''
"You have no power over me Jareth. I can't be controlled. Threats only make me hate you even more. Can't you see that?''
His eyes bore into mine as he stroked my cheek, then he grabbed me and flung me across the room. My head hit the wall and I saw stars. My body hit a wall and cried out in pain.
"Do you see now Violet? I cannot live without you, and I WILL not live without you.''
"You MONSTER! If you claim to love me then why do you hurt me? You are a monster! Even if you say that you ae not you are! You always will be! You will never change!'' I screamed. Blood was on my hand when I felt my cheek. I had cut it on my way down to the ground. He had hurt me twice now, and this time I could not fake my way out. I could not even try to love him. It had to come out. All of it did, and I could not control it. Now he would kill me for sure.
"I do.'' Jareth keeled down next to me and healed me. "I do love you Violet, I am so sorry, I could not control myself. I really do love you in the few weeks that I have come to know you. I am sorry for hurting you.''
"Thank you for healing me.'' Was all that I could say.
"You will still become my wife''
"I can't! Jareth I'm only sixteen! In the real world people aren't even allowed to leave home until eighteen!'' I stated.
"Maybe you should stop talking to that boy about the real world.'' Jareth said.
"I think that it has done me some good.'' I replied.
"This is not the human world Violet. Here it does not matter. Here what I say goes love.''
"Stop calling me that!'' I cried.
"No, because we will be wed in three days. Weather if you get amnesia, or if you are broken all over. We WILL be wed, and you WILL be my beloved Bride.
AN Is it just me, or was that a slight Dracula moment?
