• As her filled with questions. "When can I leave this room to look around?" She asked curiously,
As my eyes peered overhead of the view from the baloney. "Soon Sally, once I know you'll be ok." I simply put it.
She asked firmly, "Is all that you tell me really true?" In her mind, she wasn't believing what her ears are hearing
"Yes Sally, it's all true," I told her only somewhat being honest. After another few minutes of silence, I sneered peeking at her from my side. "Go ahead ask your questions. I can tell from your face you have some."
"How do you know that by my face?" She asked giving an untrusting utterance.
I snickered giving her an explanation. "Trust me, not much gets past me. I've been trained in many different kinda ways. I am fairly good at reading expressions and body language."
I took a few steps back to take a seat from behind her in a comfortable cushion chair. Once she sees I was comfortably leaned back in my seat. Her eyes seemed to fill with those questions. She seemed better from me stepping aside from her.
"Your family was choosing me as your wife. Why not an actual born Princess? I am not really born a princess. I'm only a tubebaby." She asked not buying it.
I said lying with this intimidating grimace. "I've already answered that. My Royal family made you into being the firstborn tubebaby Princess. From their success on how beautiful you are and your talent gene was highest compared to the other princesses. That is why you were chosen to be my future wife."
From her face, I could see she was struggling with believing me. I know she would find the truth to it, seeing how it's not a complete lie. But I also know one day she would discover her true identity, as being the Grand Duchess.
I am still wrapping my mind to this idea. About her being some unknown new breed to us hybrid-men. You wouldn't even think this could be true, for how broken she is. She's so frail and gentle from looking at her. It's hard to believe she is a Grand Duchess, I thought.
"Are we to be married?" Shakingly she asked.
"For right now you aren't to worry about that." I answered vaguely.
"But that doesn't answer my question! I know nothing of your plan with me! Can you please just let me go! So I may live my own life?" She snapped louder.
In a cold higher-pitched tone. "What are you going to do with your life? I asked deriding. "You know nothing of the worlds! Nor do you hardly know anything about the numerous societies! You wouldn't last one day out there! A scavenger or some other hybid-man would pick you off so fast you'd be back into slavery!" I spat out harshly.
Sally looked at me not fully knowing what to say. So I got up from the chair, walking to her. I don't wanna upset her, and I know this isn't easy on her.
Taking both her hands fondly and I said in a steadier tone. "Don't fight this. Trust me, Sally, you are safe here. Consider this, you have been returned to your proper home. For right now, I just want you to adapt to this idea. Will talk about the marriage part at another time. I haven't decided what I want to do just yet."
Sally looked deep into my eyes, trying to read my expressions. But I have none to show her. The truth is my mind was flustered and clouded.
A bond connection can have a strange effect on a hybrid-man and I have limited time to break it. Yet, I am not sure if I wanna do that. Deep inside myself, I am so drawn to her. Gravity lifted and I felt as if my heart flew out of my chest. To see rejection vibrating off from her caused this weird ache.
Giving myself and her a break, I released her hands-free and sat back down in the chair. Leaving her to stand there, she turned her body to the rail, looking out at the view. As I leaned back in my seat relaxing, to ease my mind. There was a brief moment of silence for a bit. Listening to birds singing and children playing outside.
I looked out in the distance. Yet, kept my one eye on her. Without her realizing it from a tilted view. I can see she's not trusting what I say. She doesn't have any clue as to who she truly is. Even I'm having a difficult time adjusting to it myself.
I'm wondering what to do, to marry her or not. I know, I have feelings for her, from the second I gazed into her eyes. It hit me like a bolt of lightning. Which is why I am doing things for her. That I would've never done for any hybrid-woman.
Thanks to the bond connection, I'm also realizing, I am getting territorial over her, and yet trying to brush it off. I knew from the moment I have seen her. There was something about her pulling my interest in.
It was something far greater than her rare beauty too. Now learning who she is, I understand it's my old memories that were ignited upon finding her again. Remembering her as an infant is why I connected so easily with her.
Never would have guessed to be hit with a bond connection like this. Nor would I have guessed to ever see her again. This explains Beast's bizarre behavior when he saw her that dim light at Saul's building, he knew.
My mind was just jostled with so many thoughts to sort out. I need some time to think all this through and not make any irrational decisions.
Yet, just watching her hair blow in the wind. Inside myself, I smiled without allowing my lips to curl. I had to fight off this urge to wanna wrap my arms around her wrist and kiss all inches of her bare shoulders.
To me, she is the most beautiful hybrid-woman within our galaxies. I've always thought this the second, I paid attention to her as an infant. Now to see her as a grown hybrid-woman. I most definitely wasn't wrong to think then, that she would grow up this radiant.
