Chereads / Tintinnabulation to Ecstasy / Chapter 10 - Playing Gooseberry

Chapter 10 - Playing Gooseberry

Jennifer looked around the house and expected her prince to be here any moment to put his arms around her to clasp her tightly so that she could feel the warmth of his hug and the caress of his breath on her cheek again. "Hello! Hi! I'm home!" She was exuberant but had butterflies in her stomach.

"You're a married woman! Your husband has done so much for you to bring you back to normality! You're hale and healthy now because of Sam. Tch...tch…tch! You're cheating on your husband… You're such an ungrateful, disloyal person don't do that…return to your man now! Prevent yourself from such an evil act of loving and cuddling a stranger, a demon while you've already got hitched! Refrain! You're shooting yourself in the foot…You're falling into great danger! Jennifer's angel warned her about such an evil act.

"Nah! No dear…carry on what are doing… don't stop…it's your life; you can lead as you like. You have the right to embrace your dream person and romantic partner. Although your prince was a supernatural, a genie kind, not a human, he has turned into a human just for you…it's not cheating on your husband… you can go on having a relationship with both…having a relationship with an unseen is not a sin…life is gifted once only…you've your right to have fun to revel with your sweetheart…see how charming and awesome he is; if he goes out in public, several girls will crush on him, but he crushes on you; you're so lucky! You'd better regard his feelings! " Jennifer's Qareen threw away her angel's advice and persuaded her to keep on doing what she had planned to do.

Jennifer snorted and overlooked what her angel advised her, but backed and nodded to her Qareen's persuasions. She continued searching for her prince in the house; she entered her bedroom and flew to the vanity to look into her favorite mirror to study her reflection. Just there near the vanity, her trendy pumps stepped on something sticky. 'Oops! Oh my Gosh!" It's a blood stain on the floor. Who had been bleeding? Who visited here?" She muttered to herself. Has someone hurt my prince? While squatting, she was mulling over this incident, rubbed her right middle and index finger against the blood stain, brought it close to her nose, and sniffed it as if she was a forensic investigator and is on her task to collect evidence to catch the convict, "Ugh! What a smell!" She then stood on her feet to come out of the house immediately.

The moment she flew out of her room, "Ahem! Ahem!" She heard a male utterance. She tilted her head, but then flicked it, thinking it her illusion, she continued stepping up.

"What is the rush?" She heard the voice again; she ran back into the room.

"Darling! You're leaving without meeting me? I'm here in my best love mood in our best-loved bed in our best-loved room." Her eyes shot to see the prince lying on his right side in bed, his head resting on his right hand.

"How come you made your appearance all of a sudden? You were not to be found anywhere; I searched the whole house." She stammered with a forced smile on her countenance.

"Did you check the backyard?" The prince sat up, his head tilted slightly forward and eyebrows raised upward.

Jennifer shook her head.

"I was there!" The prince lied with a confident grin on his face. "Come and sit beside me!" He invited her.

"I was just…. wanted to ask …. the blood stains on the floor near the vanity?" Jennifer slightly held up his offer and then asserted.

"That was mine… I' was barefoot and accidentally stepped on some shards of glass in the backyard…Maybe a glass tumbler was broken some time ago… no worries… I've wiped off everywhere…this part was left to be done." The prince poured out a blatant lie.

Without a second thought, although a little nervous and shy, Jennifer approached there and perched on the bed beside him on his right.

"I all the times want every moment of my life to be with you, to soak in your aura, to feel your body heat and caress!" he put his right arm around her, "Why have you ever wanted to bail on me?" The demon assured her with his deep-rooted love for her.

"I was beguiled and enticed by those guys!" She stared into his eyes; she looked as innocent as an infant. She then wrapped her fingers around his and asked him if he was no more a jinn kind and had transformed into a bona fide mankind.

"In our last meet-up, I asserted everything point blank without an iota of falsehood. I bank on you to honor my sacrifices, which speak volumes about how much I adore you." The demon continued his assurance.

Jennifer did not reply but felt that she was inside a bubble, which will burst any time soon and she felt exhilaration to enjoy as much of the moment and as long as possible… a world feeling.

"The bubble will burst and you'll come down crashing on earth or may land very hard if you don't repel this demon from you. Stay away from such gruesome sin and transgression!" sensing her feelings and imminent ventures, her angel burst out into her ears.

Jennifer didn't pay heed to what her angel counseled her as if she was spellbound and bewitched; she was not in her control. She was feeling like she was floating on the surface of an ocean and was delighted and contented to move anywhere the water current drifted her.

With her blushing face, Jennifer looked into his eyes with full of love and affection; she felt she was on cloud 9. But before both hearts could begin shaking and lips could embrace each other, before the bodies could turn into like two scissors crossing each other, before the exploration could begin, and before all moral and ethical boundaries could be crossed, the unexpected occurred.

'Hey…I can't believe you're sitting here…I've looked for you everywhere…what're you doing here sitting all alone in your room? Out of the blue, Sam emerged in the doorway and quickly approached Jennifer, and sat on the bed beside her, "You're blushing! Have you been crying or what?" He seized Jennifer's arm softly to take her with him," Come on let's go!"

Jennifer looked at Sam, whose head was bandaged, sitting on one side, and then turned her head to see her crush sitting on the other side; falling into dizziness, she held her head with both her hands, collapsed on the bed, and fainted.
