The next day.
Mint woke up in the afternoon. When she woke up, she woke up with her body feeling a bit sore, especially her dearest part. So, she closed her eyes again and wanted to sleep more. She felt so tired now. She didn't want to get up yet. But it was as if she was doused with cold water, everything that happened last night came back to her. She suddenly woke up because of that. But just as she was about to get up, she felt it hard to move because someone was tightly hugging her waist.
When she looked there, it turned out to be it's Sage's arm. His arms is so deliciously looking as it even has muscles. She was still naked right now. Not minding the arms on her waist and the fact that she's still naked. Mint look at Sage face to find out that his now awake and is smirking at her.
She quickly grabbed the blanket she saw on the side and covered her bare body with it. Then she stepped back away from Sage while her wide eyes were fixed on Sage.
"W-what---"
Mint heard Sage laugh there. Not knowingly, Mint tears started to form and was silently feel down to her cheeks. This worried Sage there as his smirking face change into worried one then he approached Mint. He kissed Mint's tears one by one.
"It's okay. It's fine. From now on your mine Mint."
Mint is crying now because despite of having the blissful moments the night before, she still didn't know how Sage feel for her. Not fighting her broken heart, she just, cried there. She's really not crying because he was kidnapped here or been molested by Sage.
Call her crazy. Call her masochist. Anything you want. But THIS IS HER!!! SHE JUST WANT SAGE!! So, no whatever will she learned from Sage, she will accept him. Then this kind of thing happened. to her and Sage, her love, did it. It's fine with her. Totally fine.
"What do you mean. You---- You kidnapped me and m-molest me here. Your a monster!!!" Mint said to Sage with a little loud voice while she's crying.
"Ow. Dear. No. No. That's not true. I just 'brought' you here with me cause I want to have some private moments with you. You calling me that, I guessed, being monster in front of you is very gratifying." Sage with his seductive voice said to Mint then he hug Mint tightly.
Mint struggled, "No, let me go. I wanted to go home now."
Sage face hardened then he coldly said to mint, "No, your staying here with me. When we needed to work by Monday, I'll surely, take you there."
"No. I needed to come home now. I'm sure my mother is looking for me because I didn't come home last night."
"Shh. Don't worry, using your cellphone, I already informed our mom that you won't be home yet. If until when your going to go home, I said you will just message her. I even told her not to worry because you are in good hands."
"No---"
"Year. That's why, you will be with me for a while. On the other hand, I removed the chain that was tied to your hand because I don't want you to get hurt further baby." Sage tenderly said to Mint while kissing Mint's wrist where the traces of the chain could be seen.
"Should I be grateful. You literally house arrest me here." Despite of Mint's joy and excitement due to what is happening right now, she retorted angrily.
"Of course. What you don't want it? You will have me alone. It's just the two of us who will be together. I'm sure. You'll enjoy this moments." Sage said maliciously.
"What should I do for you to let me go."
"There's nothing you can't do. I don't want anything. Just you. Accept this fact, when I am satisfied then, I'll even take you home."
"So for now. Be good and stay with okay." Sage continued while giving Mint a kiss on her temple. Then he moved to get out of bed.
"Oh. Breakfast is ready. I'll wait for you at the dining table. Fix yourself now. Faster baby. Don't want to starve you now." He said and then he went through the door and after giving him a last look. He closed the door leaving Mint on top of the bed absent minded.
When Mint heard the door closed, it seems like she woke up because of this.
Slowly, she looked down to see her bare body. There she saw the little bites of in her arms up to her chest and shoulders.
This is really not just a dream of hers. She's not fantasizing this time. Not her one of delusional.
All of this is true.
A smile slowly formed in her eyes.
I her eyes, you can see the excitement, eagerness and obsession that is slowly forming in them.
'This is it!!! You started this Sage. So, don't complain if you can't get away from me anymore.'
Unknowingly, she hummed a joyous song while she walk and went to the bathroom there to take a shower. After taking a shower, she just pulled a bathrobe that is just hanging on the side and put it on. The robe is bigger that her so she knew that Sage own the robe which makes her very happy to have the experience in having the chance to try Sage's cloths.
She went out of the shower room and then settled on the sink there in front of the window. In there, she saw her face and body's look like. She have bruises and Hickeys that we're spread down to her neck. She didn't see the others anymore because they were covered by the robe she was wearing. Her lips is slightly red and is a little swollen. Her eyes is sparkling.
She looked, happy now.
She glanced to the side and saw a new toothbrush there that hadn't been used yet. Maybe Sage prepared that for her. So, she happily picked it up and brushed her teeth.
She thought that Sage was waiting for her in the dining room, so she quickly finished brushing and went out. He doesn't want to make Sage wait any longer.
Even from a distance, she could see Sage sitting at the dining table, drinking coffee. She remembered that she's still acting as if she didn't like her situation now, so she prepared herself. Then she slowly walked towards Sage.
She saw Sage lift his head from sipping coffee and look at her. Sage is really handsome. Mint admitted again.
Sage was wearing a simple black polo with the top three buttons undone, so you could really see his well-defined chest. He was only wearing black short pants. The hottest part was when she found out that his slightly messy hair was still wet. Maybe, he just finished taking a shower earlier.
"Your here, finally. Take a sit and eat." Sage's order to her.
Mint timidly sit on the chair in front of Sage. But--
"No. Not right there. Here. You came here." Sage stopped her while he patted the chair beside him. Indicating that, she will sit in there.
"W-what. I-I'm okay h-here." Mint said in her small voice while she clutched her robes into her body. Preventing it to slide down into her one shoulder because she felt that it starts into loosening.
Sage just looked at her. His eyes is saying "no" as his answer.
Mint had no choice but to follow Sage in whatever he wanted. When Mint got close to Sage, Sage immediately pulled Mint to his waist to bring her closer and then he gave Mint a passionate kiss. When he looked satisfied, she was only then assisted to sit in the chair next to Sage.
Within two weeks that passed. That's their scenario. Mint was locked in Sage residence and not allowed to leave. Sage never left her even once. He really needs to see her every time, so he's really keeping a close watch. When it's mealtime, if Sage is too lazy to cook, he'll just order food for them.
To be honest, he didn't feel like she was kidnapped. Any 'normal' person who was kidnapped will do so. Except on being molested every time.
Of course, she likes that. She enjoy every moment of it. Especially the parts where Sage hugs and kisses her anytime he wants. When night falls, he will claim her for the whole night until dawn. Their lovemaking is so intense and wild. Specifically in the moments when Mint can't stopped herself from responding into Sage passion into taking her. Once she takes the initiative into welcoming Sage. His restrain can't be seen and he will let his true nature out. Mint, of course, welcome it every time with eagerness.
It's just that, Mint hasn't learned why Sage is doing this. She had no idea why he was doing this thing to her. That's why, even though she is very happy with what is happening, she still feels a little hurt because she feels that maybe, Sage is really just after her because of pure lust. He probably wants to explore. In the company of the fortunate, the one chosen is her. He probably, find the satisfaction into doing her, that's why. She doesn't believe that she was kidnapped because Sage has feelings for her. She doesn't want to be delusional. She doesn't want to hope.
When Sage brought her to school. For the whole day, she really thought thoroughly about whether she could take to escape from Sage. That she is willing to leave this. But---- she decided to, it might be better for her to stay away from Sage for now. She knows what she feels for Sage. She needs a night alone to really think things through.
Of course, she won't give up. She already said that she wouldn't let go of Sage because he was the one who took the first step to make her his. It's juts that, he needs to charge overnight first. A night he will dedicate to herself to rest and recover from the pain she is feeling now. For the reason that she knows the fact that, Sage will not love her. Yes, Sage's body will belong to her, but not his heart. This night, she would teach herself to be content with whatever would be her. That she should not aspire for anything else.
That day, she ask for an early out from her boss.
All of the employees of Aethercliff Academy have their locator slip which they we're entitled to use twice a month. She never use any of those within a year that she started to work in it.
When it's exactly three o'clock in the afternoon, she pack her self and said her goodbyes on the people within their office. She knew that Sage was just inside the academy, so she really did her best to escape from there.
She did. She went home. Her mom was so surprised, wondering why she came home so soon. Since she said that she messaged her again saying she would be gone for one month.
Mint told and console her that, something happened, so they were sent home early. She didn't explain what happened and made her believe that everything was fine.
After that, she directly went to her room and lie there. She immediately doze off there not even have the time to eat her dinner.
She slept not knowing that, Sage now is raging with anger and ready to punish her into scaping from him. When the moment that he learned that Mint take an early out without him knowing. The fact that, she leave the school without his knowledge. He can't control the intense anger he feels right now. Even his colleagues noticed that he wasn't in the mood today. They didn't even approach him because they said he was scary to approach. They say he's really cold right now.
