Lovable

Hunnie









A few more days go by and Bahm of course tried to enter into the realm again. The vampires outside working were instilled in fear. Anna tried her hardest to convince them that he couldn't enter in and after some of them saw the he couldn't even jump over their gates without his insides roasting slowly, they began to believe her.





She began bringing me out of the room and down the hall slowly, introducing me to different women and families that lived here in the castle. They were all related to the royalty that were still alive and the ones that were all sleeping under the ground of their castle.







From time to time I'd peek out some of the windows in the hall to see the different surrounding around the castle. Mainly tall shrubs, farms alining the outside and a few miles away into the distance was The Kingdom. Nothing compared to Bahm's. It looked like a large, overcrowded and colorful village while his looks like a humongous, money making, rich city.







Many of the children that played in the always dimly lit halls were getting accustomed to seeing my presence with Anna as we passed through to get our own foods lately. Anna wanted me to get out more and meet her people. Most were frightened in the beginning, but I only kept a smile on my face, which sometimes broke out into a frown when they'd sniff and run with their speeds. Others were very respectful towards Anna in result led them to being very hospitable towards me.







Kris has also been coming to the castle, demanding to see me, but I'd always relay that I was out and about in their Kingdom. Which then led Kris to go searching for me. I never left their castle once, so he always gave up looking for me right before the sun would go down, and according to Anna, her friends would hear Kris having conflicted arguments out loud.



Then he would snap at them in a tone that I knew wasn't Kris. It upset me to know that Bahm could be in Kris's body at anytime he wanted. He really thought he could do whatever it was that he wanted?

Today we were going to take a walk through the rose garden out behind their castle. Accompnaied by the many small children that were enjoying my stay here in the castle.

It seemed they've learned harsh things about Bahm and his childhood of being tormented by Dark Witches. They all had a small story to tell.



"um...Miss Hunnie The Demon King's mate ...There was a time where he...um....he...um kick some witch out because she....um...um...she did dark magic, but she wasn't even a dark witch!" They all would shiver as if the story was so scary.







I ignored most of them as they couldn't have been no older than ten years old and I didn't want to let stories that could have been made up, affect my view on Bahm, because it made him sound even more of a revolting monster.





We continued our walk outside of the castle and into the fresh air of outside. The kids all ran ahead of us and straight towards a stoned hut. Anna turned around and faced me. She holds out her hand and looks me into my eyes. "Don't listen to them Hunnie. I don't want them to hurt you."





I shrug my shoulders. they couldn't hurt me any more than Bahm has already done himself. I grab Anna's hand and she kisses me on my head. It was a little chilly today, so we both wore a one pieced, long sleeved, turtle neck. Her's white and mine dark green and we both wore washed, high waisted jeans.





We walked around the stone hut and into a garden filled of roses and grape vines of purple, plump grapes. The kids were running around the statues that were covered with vines to the back off the garden, and some other sat on the bench in the middle the beautiful stone structered garden. Anna plucks a few roses and grapes off of some vines. Settling down on another set of benches to the out skirts of the garden.





"Taste them. They taste like roses." She says while handing me some grapes.





I popped two into my mouth, the juicy sweetness filling the inside of my cheeks. Anna kisses my ears a few time, mumbling how beautiful I look from the side. She never fails to make me blush. She's a very caring and considerate woman. I don't understand how Bahm could of had her as a mistress for so long. I would of married her and treated her like the Queen she deserved to be! But then again, there's always two sides of a story and so far, her side seemed more believable.





"You are very lovable Anna. I've never had anyone take my feelings into consideration. I thank you highly for getting me out of that situation, but I feel as though I can't also rely on you to keep me from goin back into that same situation." My voice croaks as I whisper out to her, feeling stuck, and smiling at the kids off in the distance. I would never forgive myself if they got hurt because of me.







"Hunnie. I am also here to protect you. My loyalty to Bahm goes so far that I'll always want to keep his soul mate safe as well. If you ever wanted to go back to him, I wouldn't stop you, but after that night he talked to me like I was going to take you away from him at the party, I knew you meant a lot to him, but was in danger. I couldnt let him do something rash under his possessive and controlling behavior cherie, especially not towards his mate. Ive seen him react harshly when he becomes possessive and you are still a child compared to us all." She pulls my head close to her chest, running her fingers through my hair. "But I do not recommend going back to him now, he doesn't sound like he wants to do anything to get you back."







"What do you mean?" I shoot up from her chest. "He's been talking to you, hasn't he!" She shakes her heads yes. I've been noticing sometimes she goes blank like she's listening in on something, but she never says anything, only continues in her movements.



"What does he say?!" I blurt out, but I really didn't want to know. Her silence confirmed to me that I truly didn't want to know what he has been saying to her about me and it broke my heart.







For the rest of the day I felt down.







Anna chose not to tell me and I stopped asking after the second time. It seemed that Bahm wasn't going to try hard enough to get me back. I take that as I didn't mean much for him, as he could go ahead and mark another woman in my absence if he wanted to. Replacing me.







It weighed heavily on my heart. Would I ever be able to have someone that is faithful to me?





Later on in the day, I begged and begged Anna to tell me at least something that Bahm has said to her, but she kept refusing. Telling me that he isn't his self and doesn't give a shit about how I feel right now. Blaming me for the way he's acting and it did to hurt me. It hurt me to believe I made Bahm act like this. I thought if he love me like he said, he would listen to what it was that I had to say and respect it or try to make me feel more comfortable.







I stayed quiet all throughout walking through the garden. The kids bought me joy and laughter when they began playing Kings and Queens.





Anna introduces me to The King Fehdrik. He's 900 years older than her, and looks it too. She explains that he came from a different bloodline that was going extinct so he aged differently than herself.





The King Fehdrik staggers off his throne once we enter into a blue room filled with gold embedded into the walls. The tiny bits shining, making the room feel like it was shimmered in gold dust. He was very polite towards me, even indicating how protective and faithful Anna has been towards me, igniting a smile on his face.







"You'd think you were her mate as well." The King laughs from his belly. They all seemed to look up to Anna dearly. Trusting her and her words.
