Excerpt from one of my fanfictions written by Arwennicole
Ashley bit her lip as she brought the sword, but it fell to the ground instead of striking him. Demion reached down and he picked the sword up again. “I knew you couldn’t do it,” he commented. Ashley lowered her head and her shoulders shook slightly. Demion grabbed her arm and pulled something from his pocket. “This is to be sure you won’t escape again,” he informed. He locked a bracelet around her wrist, and a red dot started to blink on it. “The only time it’ll come off is if I put the code in,” he added. Demion grabbed her arm again and they went back to the Dark Fortress.
Ashley sighed when they came into their room again. She laid down and Demion laid down next to her. In a matter of time, he was asleep. Ashley rolled onto her side and she too fell asleep.
Ashley woke up with Demion still sleeping beside her. She slowly got up from the bed and she saw his sword sitting on the other side of the room. She walked over and picked it up. She quietly removed the sword from it’s sheath and she looked over at Demion, to see that he was still asleep. She quietly made her way back to the bed and she climbed on top of him, carefully so that she wouldn’t wake him. She took the sword and pressed it against his throat. “Trying again are we?” He asked. Ashley felt her heart leap when she saw that he was awake.
“I just want to go home,” she replied.
Demion looked at her with an evil half-smile. “You can’t kill me,” he told her. Ashley felt a chill run down her spine. “You can’t kill me, because your precious Andros is still alive. He’s still here, that’s why you didn’t kill me the first time. I don’t think you’ll do it again,” he added.
“I can certainly try,” she answered.
“Then do it.”
Ashley froze when those words left his mouth again. “Kill me if you really want to,” he told her. Ashley’s hand shook.
“If I don’t kill you, you’ll kill my friend and then you’ll kill me,” she answered.
Demion shook his head. “Not true. I have no desire to kill you,” he corrected. Ashley felt the tears press against her eyes.
“Then why don’t you just let me go? Why can’t you just leave us alone?” She asked.
“Your friends believe you’re dead. You’re only place is here.”
Ashley started to shake a bit. “You can kill me right now. You have the sword pressing against my throat. You have the advantage,” he informed. He just laid there, looking at her. “Do it,” he repeated. Ashley shook her head. “Do you want to kill me?” He asked.
“I don’t want to, but I have to,” she replied.
“Why don’t you want to?” He asked.
Ashley looked him in the face. “Because Andros is still in there somewhere and I can’t kill Andros,” she replied. She dropped the sword, but she stayed where she was on him. Demion dared to reach up and touch her face. Ashley unconsciously leaned into his touch and closed her eyes. She gasped slightly when his hand went under her shirt. Ashley opened her eyes and she stared into his hazel eyes. She leaned forward and she kissed him. He kissed her back and shifted so he was now above her. Ashley reached for the hem of his shirt and pulled it over his head, letting it fall to the floor. She found herself staring at his muscled chest and stomach. She reached out and touched the warm skin and heard him take a sharp intake of breath. Demion pulled at the hem of her shirt and pulled it over her head. Ashley closed her eyes and tilted her head back when he kissed along her neck and across her throat. However, she was brought back to reality when his hands left her waist and towards her pants. “Demion, wait…stop,” she objected. Demion pulled back and she sat up.
“What?” He asked.
Ashley bit her lip. “I’m…I’m not ready for this yet,” she replied. Demion nodded and looked up when there was a knock on the door.
“Who is it?” He asked.
“My prince, Astronema wishes to speak with you,” Ecliptor replied.
“I’ll be there in about five minutes,” Demion informed.
They heard Ecliptor walk away and Demion got off the bed. He handed Ashley her shirt before pull on his shirt and grabbing his jacket. He stood up and pulled his jacket on. He pulled his hair back in a half-ponytail. “If I scared you, that wasn’t my intention,” he informed. Then he left the room. Ashley pulled her shirt back on and she leaned against the headboard of the bed. She stared at the tracking bracelet around her wrist.
Demion walked into the room to see Astronema sitting in her chair. “May I ask why you wanted me to meet you here in the middle of the night?” He asked. Astronema glared at him.
“I think you’re getting a little too cozy with that Terran girl, brother,” she replied.
Demion crossed his arms over his chest. “I think, sister, what I do is my business,” he informed. Astronema stood up.
“She is blinding your judgment. I believe that we should destroy her while we have the chance,” she answered.
Demion grabbed Astronema’s throat. “If you ever touch Ashley. I don’t care if you’re my own flesh and blood, I will kill you,” he snapped. He then let her go. Astronema glared at him.
“She will be the death of you,” she hissed.
“I doubt it,” he answered.
Demion then went back into the room.
When he entered his room, he saw Ashley laying down with her back facing towards him. He walked over and pushed the hair from her neck. He leaned forward and kissed her neck. Ashley sighed and turned over on her back. “Sorry if I woke you up,” he apologized. Ashley shook her head.
“No, I was just thinking,” she answered.
Demion removed his jacket and boots before laying down next to her. He stroked her face and looked at her. “About?” He asked. Ashley looked at him.
“What do we call this relationship, Demion?” She asked.
Demion reached over and held her hand. He kissed her knuckles before looking at her. “Why do you want me here?” She asked. Demion sighed and the next word that came out of his mouth shocked her.
“I’m in love with you,” he replied.
“What?” She asked.
“You heard me.”
Ashley came closer to him and she pressed her lips against his in a kiss. Demion kissed her back and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her close to him. She pulled back and placed her head on his chest and closed her eyes.
