Semua Bab I was Promised to a Warlock: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Elirond This nectar wine tastes especially bitter, so I have one of the kitchen staff bring us a new bottle. Everything has to be perfect before she arrives. I hear a familiar sound coming down the hallway outside the dining hall doors that makes me stand, preparing for our guest of honor. As the doors open I see a face that looks much like my own staring back at me in a long green dress, much the same as the one her mother wore the day she left my court. Though her features are more human in nature due to the unfortunate glammer she still wears, her mothers doing im sure, there is no mistaking her place as a part of the Fae. Her bright red hair tied back in a low pony tail, with sparkling green eyes the color of the vines that cover the kingdom. Her skin a much darker tone than that of her mother or I giving her the illusion of having been out in the sun. I see on her feet the source of that once familiar sound, a pair of ratty sneakers adorn her feet making me chuckle to myself, h

Calliope "That doesn't explain why I am here, and if you loved her so much why would you let your pregnant wife just up and leave?" The dots still weren't quite connecting and I am determined to find out. "Yes I apologize. I forgetyou know nothing of our ways. When you make a bargain with a Fae it is binding on both ends until death. If either side is broken both parties will die. Very few creatures still dare to make these deals knowing it comes at such high a cost, but in the event that a deal with struck, it can not be undone. Your mother knew this and risked everything for it. Her request was simple enough, she asked to be released for her marital bonds so she could live out her days in the human world. This angered me so I obliged under one condition, that she provide an heir and on their 20th birthday they would rule beside me. To this she agreed rather quickly. Out of spite I decided that as part of this bargain she would never be permitted to return. She asked if that was

Calliope Why is he looking at me like that, and why do I not want him to stop. My skin starts to burn with anticipation as he gets closer to me. I am practically tripping over myself like an idiot unsure of whether to run from him or let him ravish me. The sensation of his body on mine is still fresh on mine. His eyes never leave me as Elirond and Alexander sit across the long table. It is covered in what looks like with beautiful desserts that I don't recognize with colors of purple and yellow. My stomach starts to growl curbing my sexual appetite into a real one. When was the last time I ate? Not since before I was kidnapped, I have no idea what time it is or how long I have actually been here. I stand there for minutes that feel like hours trying to wrap my head around all the information that has been thrown at me in the last 10 minutes until I hear someone clear their throat. "Please Calliope, sit. It is clear you are hungry, the noises coming from you are not pleasant and ar

Calliope I hear the faint sound of knocking as the door to my room creaks open. "Excuse me, miss, are you awake?" I hear Mae's sweet ask. "Yes, Mae i'm awake. Thank you. What can I do for you?" I ask a little more aggressively than I intend to causing her to shrink backwards ever so slightly."Oh, I-uh didn't mean to disturb you," she sputtered. "King Elirond wanted to know if you would join him in the dining room for a mid morning meal?" I sighed I really didn't want to. I don't want to do any of this. "Sure, thank you Mae." There's no need to take out my frustrations on her. It's not her fault i'm stuck here. "My pleasure, miss. Would you like me to select an outfit for you?" She asks and turns towards what I'm assuming is a closet."Do you have a pair of jeans in there?" I ask jokingly. She looks at me with a confused look on her face. I guess they probably don't wear jeans here, do they?"I apologize, miss. I'm not quite familiar with the term." She says worriedly. "It's

Alexander "Where have you been?" I hear my father's voice ask from the darkness as I walk into my room. "No where father" I reply. "Hmm." He says unconvinced. "I hope you are not getting distracted by the girl. She is very attractive, make sure that you are keeping her enthralled so she does not going mucking up our plans," he says sounding bored. "No matter, I finished my conversation with King Elirond about the details for your nuptials. Now that all of that business is settled there are things you and I must discuss about what comes after" "Yes, father. I have reached out to the outer tribes and they are aware of the plan" I reply. As my eyes adjust to the dark room, I see him seated at the small table by the window. I take my seat next to him, he snaps his fingers and the candle on the table becomes lit. His large looming figure barely fitting in the small chair made for a petite Fae making him look more intimidating. "Well, everything is prepared," he says. "I wouldn't wan
