Arrangement - Part Two
Joban owned her, and
despite the warmth, the pleasant tingle in her belly, and the slow sizzle
blossoming from her womb whenever he was near, she wanted freedom.
He blinked and the light disappeared from his
hands, back to the netherworld from whence it originated. He stood and walked
toward the door.
“Are you leaving?” She sheathed her claws,
trying and failing to temper the fear in her voice.
“Would you like me to stay?” Deep, mellow tones
poured over her like balm for every hurt she’d cast aside.
Nia rolled her eyes and turned her head away
from him. Arrogant bastard.
He hesitated, then stepped through the door.
“Nevertheless, I will return shortly.”

Following Joban’s silent footfalls, he unlocked
the door from the outside with a snick. Nia jumped, but held
her tongue. She would not cow, despite the fluttering of her heart.
