Jordan Fallowed the Goblin King to her chambers and as he closed the door behind him she mentally prepared herself for the worst to happen. Jareth turned to her and she waited for him to speak, knowing that it was better to see what he was planning before making her own moves.
"What do you think of my son?" Jareth asked. Jordan stared at him confused at his words. What did he mean by that? She didn't know where he was going but then again, He himself was the Labyrinth.
"He's alright for a human." She attempted to play it off as best she could, but Jareth's smile told her otherwise.
"Really, well then you'll be happy to know exactly what I have in store for you." Jareth's words froze her, what in the world was he up too? It was far more clear that he hadn't raised her for the hell of it.
Sarah looked at her son who seemed so stressed, she recognized his worry, he was clearly in love, probably didn't even realize it. Then again it took her forever to realize herself that she cared for the goblin King, Hell she still wasn't used to the idea, but how could she be? She had just found out everything herself and when she thought about it, did make sense. After all, she had loved him all those years, and now she could be happy, it seem easy enough, and she didn't have too many problems other than Seth's thoughts. Sarah glanced out a window that overlooked the labyrinth. She had always felt at home here, and she had the only real friends she had ever made. The only real issue was herself. she knew years ago when she struck the dal to keep her son, that she'd end up here with him, so what was she so afraid of?
Seth looked at his mother, who was trapped in her own thoughts. It was clear that she wasn't going to fight off the King-his father. He still had trouble believing that he was a prince, and his father a king. He was the son of a goblin King. And strangely it all made sense. His father tried to trap his mother out of love and trapped his own son, clearly so he could have his own family. There was still more to their story though, like for instance Jordan, the girl couldn't have been related to him, so who was she and why was she brought into this families mess? She was a rare beautiful rose surrounded by his families thorns, and he wished he could talk to her, maybe change his father's mind and set her free. It was strange after all this time he had never had a father and yet here he was call a man he barely knew father. It felt right, after all he may look like his mother but the structure fit his fathers and when he was a kid the stories of the goblin King made him envision the king as his father. Seth guessed it was natural like maybe he always knew. It made the most sense. he was shocked by all of this information but seeing as this was some fairytale world. Now thinking about it, the whole land would be his, he would be a king someday. how amazing was that? This situation couldn't be that bad.
Jordan thought over what Jareth had said. It made sense, and even though she wasn't fond of the idea that her life had been planned for her, she liked where she'd end up, but one question still leaked into her brain, what happened to her family, her real one?
"I know your probably wondering about your real family, but I think it's better you don't know. Just trust me." Jareth said. She looked at him, he had always seemed to read her mind, but trusting him was easy he was after all the only father she had ever known.
"If you say so...So when would you wish for me and Seth to marry?" She asked while she had walked over to her vanity and started doing her make up. Jareth sighed with a smile.
"When your both of age my dear. Till then just simply enjoy getting to know each other. We both know he will fall quickly, but you are still learning and need time, that's easy. But you will both be happy, you both blush so intently when the other is near, its very clear your meant to be." Jareth words rang in her ears. A slow smile came to her lips. Her thoughts turned over to Seth about what a future would be like with him. She imagined her life with him as if it were a dream; imagined a castle full of kids that looked just like him. Jordan realized that after all this time of Jareth treating her like a daughter she would finally have the family she thought she would never get. He would be her actual father.
"So does this mean I get to call you dad instead of Uncle Jareth?" she said with a sly smirk on her face. He glared at her.
"If it pleases you... but just remember I have a oubliette with your name on it." he said while pursing his lips.
