Freya's Pov :
"Don't tease her so much.She needs to rest."I hear Hayden say and Rhett loosen's his arms around me after a last nip that has me shivering in his arms."I know."Rhett says pushing a strand of hair behind my ear."You look so beautiful,blushing like that for me,my queen.Did you feel the bond?The electric sensation when i touch you?"
I open my eyes and look into his starry eyes that are filled with so much adoration.Even though i want to deny it,i nod because it's true.
I want to deny it so bad.But gosh how do i even explain this?This feels so surreal.
I felt the bond snapping into place the moment he touched me as if that's how it is supposed to be.
God,am i dreaming?Is this all a dream?
Another world?
Magic?
A royal ball?
Soul mates?
How could any of this even be real?It's as if..i am in a fairy tale?
"So..i am you two's soul mate?"I ask and they nod."Okay cool,uh when can i go back to my world again?"I ask trying not to panic.
Mate?
As in soul mate?Life partner ??
I still haven't finished college.I haven't even reached 21.I haven't even archived my dreams yet,how could i have life partners so soon?And that too two?
Impossible.
I have to go back no matter what.There's no way i am staying here with them.
Rhett tittles his head slightly."You do realise that you are supposed to be with us forever right?You will be our wife soon."
My breath gets stuck in my throat."W-w-wife?"I shutter and gulp."As in getting married?"
Dude please,i am not even 20.
"That's a discussion for later but yes it will happen one day.For now,you should get some rest.."Hayden's voice trails off as he suddenly realises something."What's your name love?"
Happen one day..?
As in i will marry them..?
No..god,how did i end up here?
"Freya.."I mutter under my breath.
"A deserving name for our queen."Rhett say's standing up.He lean's down and tries to kiss my forehead but i dodge in time.
However,my wishful thinking that i dodged it in time is over because a hand grabs my nap and tugs me forward.
A gentle kiss falls on my forehead,different from the forceful hand holding me."Be good and take some rest.Hayden will be here with you."
I let go the breath i was holding as i watch him walk away.
"Please I-"I know.You want to go back right?"Hayden asks and i nod.
"I will look into this matter and find a way to go to your world okay?But you have to be patient till then.."He says."I know it's a lot to take in but trust us.We will never hurt you my love."
"You will let me go back..?"I ask, a little confused.Didn't they say that i am their mate?Then..why will they let me go back?
Or is there something else?
"Think about it and tell me truthfully Do you really want to go back?"He asks seriously and i am rendered speechless from his gaze that seems to be able to see through me.
Do i really want to go back?
I do of course i want to..
Right?
There's my home back there..my home?I lost it when my parents died.Do i even have one anymore?
Friends?I have none..
Studies..i have never been good in my studies.
No one..will even care if i disappeared.
Then
Do i even have any reason to go back?
My heart squeezes painfully at the thought and i find myself at loss of words.
A large hand grabs mine and squeezes gently.I look up and his eyes hold my gaze reassuringly."Don't tire your little head too much.Think about it and tell me a few days later.Till then,just forget everything about that world and be our princess here."
Forget everything..and..be their princess here..?
As in,a real princess?
