Kapitel 15: He Is A Freak Of Nature

Celestia's POV:

Darius insisted I should return to the castle. But I refused to do it. How can I face my Father now?

I am not even supposed to see or touch a man that way. But I kissed him! He kissed me first, but I kissed him back too. I have sinned. I am never going back to the castle. I have decided to live on this cliff forever.

Ember didn't leave my side. I told her many times to go home. But she didn't listen to me.

After an hour of training, I started to feel exhausted. I sat down on the grass and rested my head against the rock.

Silver Shadow is captured now. I reminded myself of the fact again. Darius must have locked him up in the dungeon. He can't escape from there.

King Oberon's spell bounds the dungeon. No one can break free from the prison made of my father's magic. He can never get out of there. Then why do I still feel insecure?

Ember came running to me. She was carrying a willow basket in her hand. " I brought you Spinel berries."

"Thank you so much," I said and took the basket from her. After an exhausting day, this is what I needed. I started munching on the juicy berries.

"How are you feeling?" she asked me.

I shook my head. "I am humiliated right now. He made me dance and he…. I can't even say that out loud."

"Celestia, I understand. But it's over now. You can relax."

"No, it is not," I cried out. " I am unable to get him off my head."

She raised her eyebrows at me in surprise. I should have never said that to her. I am humiliating myself even more.

"You have to face your demons," she snapped. " There is nothing more you can do about it."

That is what Daviana told me too. Perhaps I should just do it. I got up to my feet immediately.

"I am going to face him," I said to her.

I closed my eyes and gathered all the energy I had in me to create a portal. I cast the golden sparks on the ground. Soon a portal door appeared.

I bid goodbye to Ember and walked into the portal. It led me directly to my room. It is midnight now. Everyone in the castle must be asleep. So I can easily sneak into the dungeon. Probably no one would notice me.

I clutched the golden railing and stepped down the stairs. As I got into the dungeon, I started to feel anxious.

Nothing will happen to me. No enchantments or magic can be done down there. But what if Silver Shadow's power works there? It is more likely to happen as he is a freak of nature.

Still, I need to take this chance. I can't live like this forever. I stepped into the cold dungeon. It is always freezing in here.

Silver Shadow was inside an iron cage. He was imprisoned here two days ago. I thought he would be worn out by now. But he looked the same.

When he saw me, he got up from the stone floor. I still wasn't able to look at his emerald green eyes.

"I was waiting for you, Celestia," he said.

I flinched just by hearing his voice. His voice is captivating even though he is in an iron cage.

" My love, don't suppress your desires.*

Can he still read my mind too? This is impossible!

" Nothing is impossible when you are with me, Celestia."

" Shut up," I screamed. I finally looked up at his intense eyes. " I have taken an oath to be a virgin warrior forever. You have to stop enchanting me like this. "

He started laughing out loud. I don't know what he finds funny here.

"My love, you are not meant to be a lame Virgin Warrior. You belong to me! We both are destined to be together."

I was getting more and more furious at him. How can he lie through his teeth like this?

" I am not lying, Celestia. Oberon is the biggest liar in this realm."

" How dare you disrespect my Father?" I yelled. " He is the protector of this realm."

He started laughing again. This is the first time I am hearing someone speak ill of my father. Everyone I came across always respected him. Even the people from the Shadow realm are afraid of my father.

"Oberon is an illusionist. He has been fooling the whole realm these many years. And you petty people believe his tales," he said.

I wish I could yield my powers here. I so want to strike him with my sparks right now.

He chuckled again. " You can do whatever you want to do with me, Celestia. Because I am yours."

"You are my enemy," I cried out. " You stole the blood of the angel just after I was born. You are now trying to turn me to the dark side by alluring me with your charms. You are the illusionist here."

He kept on smiling at me. Why is he not getting a bit offended by my words?

"My Sweetness, even if you slay me down, I would not get offended by you."

I was out of words. I came here to face my demon so that I can get some peace. But instead, I am getting more and more allured to him.

"Come on, my love. Please give me your hand. You will realize the truth about yourself."

I took a step back from the cage. Am I a fool to touch him again? One time was a mistake. And I don't want to keep making the same mistakes.

"You have got nothing to lose here, my love. Just touch me. You will come to know that I am telling the truth."

I was so flattered by his offer. What will I get to know if I touch him? And I don't think that just touching his hand is wrong.

I slowly clenched his pearly hands, which were wrapped around the iron rod of the cage. After a second, I realized that I was inside the iron cage with him. How did I get in here? I just touched his hand, and he managed to pull me in here? And he did it all just by physical touch?

This is impossible! No enchantments or magic can work here.

Silver Shadow was grinning at me wickedly. "I told you, Celestia. If we both were together, we could do things beyond everyone's imagination."
