Chương 22: AWKWARD POSITION!

Alba acted like he didn't hear her. He went on to talk to his men:

"Speak I am listening!"

"My lord! You weren't attacked by any of your known enemies. In fact, you have had zero interaction with the person who just attacked you."

Alba stopped walking in his tracks and turn to look at the man who was giving him information. He looked baffled and speechless. Althea creased her browse disappointed by the news. She hated seeing Alba discomforted. She looked at the man who was talking to her with an angry glare and asked:

"And who is this new enemy?" she stared at Alba's men infuriated.

"That's the problem even the men don't know well enough. The only information they were given about the man was a code name he goes by; 'The Archer'

"That's good enough for me! ..." Alba answered and walked away.

"Dispose of them discreetly" Althea ordered and followed after Alba.

Mahina and Dora's exploration was going well until Mahina somehow got sucked into a different section of Alba's Penthouse. Before she got herself into that dimension of the building. She was busy admiring an ancient artfully crafted wall mirror in a room full of artifacts. Dora was busy admiring the huge beautiful vases when she heard Mahina's scream. She turned to look for Mahina but couldn't find her. Dora started yelling out Mahina's name in her confused state.

"Hina! Hina! please answer me. where are you? I am worried sick here about you."

Mahina could hear Dora yelling her name but it seemed like Dora couldn't hear Mahina answering to her calls.

"Dora! Dora! I am just fine. Don't be worried I will find a way out."

Mahina started looking around when all efforts to inform Dora of her whereabouts failed. She ventured deeper into the vast space. She looked up at the ceiling and she was awed at the sight of real clouds floating in midair. There were little stars above the clouds shining bright and twinkling. As she was walking around she felt like she was walking on something other than a tiled floor. Looking down she was awed at the sight of green grass and white dandelions around on the ground. She twirled round and saw that the walls of the vast empty space were covered with climbing red and white lilies.

And just when she thought she couldn't be more awed than she already was. She found a piano in the middle of the vast space. It was covered with climbing roses. Right above the ceiling where the piano was located, there was a floating cloud that was continuously raining down water on the Piano.

Mahina looked around her to make sure she wasn't followed or being watched. She took little space towards the Piano consciously. As if she knew she was being watched. And just when she was about to touch the Piano she saw two set of glowing green eyes staring at her amongst the climbing plants growing on the wall. She held her chest tightly out of fear and watched as the glowing sea green eyes materialized with each step:

"Oh! My silky kitty whatever are you doing here?" Alba's sweet velvety voice pierce through her ears.

"Nothing!" She answered him swiftly as she was moving backwards. While he kept moving forward towards her with his eyes fixed on her.

"How did you get in here?" He prodded further inquisitively.

"I got drawn in!... I don't know anything. Please let me go" she quickly answered him defensively. But Alba continued moving towards her until he caged her against the piano in between his arms:

"Do you like it here?" she suddenly calmed down at his question and nodded:

"It's beautiful!" He carried her in his arms and she reflexively closed her eyes. He smiled at her and took her out of the Vast nature filled space. When she opened her eyes. She saw that they were inside his bedroom. He laid her on the bed and towered over her as he was atop her:

"You dint change your clothes? I ordered a whole line of clothes for you…" she was speechless.

"You love my clothes I see!" she was still speechless.

"I like you too in my clothes but… you are not wearing anything under… and I am a jealous man. I don't want anyone Ogling at my Silky Kitty" Mahina's cheeks warmed up at his remarks.

Mahina was silent all the while in Alba's arms as he carried her to dinner. After she didn't respond to his questions as to why she didn't wear a proper dress. He carried her in his arms and took her to the closet. When he attempted taking off her clothes, they practically struggled together in the closet. There was no way she would allow him to invade the privacy of her body again. She insisted on doing it herself but he refused to listen to her. He claimed the reason for her not changing her clothes was because she wanted him to do it for her. So that was exactly what he wanted to do. Mahina regretted not wearing one of the clothes in the closet. After arguing with Alba for almost half an hour. Alba finally gave in on the condition that she wears whatever he chose for her.

After Mahina was done he asked her out for dinner. She nodded her head in agreement as she was very hungry but she made it clear to him not to attempt devouring her body with his lustful desires. Alba only smirked at her as he carried her in his arms.

Alba and Mahina were welcomed to the garden by Dora's loud disturbing voice:

"Ford! I said take me back to the artifact room, I want to search for my friend. right now!" Her voice echoed. That was it, Ford could no longer keep a straight face with Dora. She had provoked him enough in just one day together. He was glaring at her furiously. He suddenly stood up when he could not take it again:

"Stop it already! You nagging woman. What do you think will happen to your friend?" he closed the book he was reading and slammed it on the stool beside the couch where he was seated.

Axel, Arlo, Althea, Alba and Mahina all turned to look at the duo:

"What? Did you just call me a nagging woman?" he smirked mischievously at her and replied:

"You heard me! Loud and clear." The two got engaged in a staring competition. Axel quickly Interrupted the two seeing that they were getting intense.

"The person the both of you are arguing over is here!" Arlo pointed at Mahina who was in Alba's arms. Mahina buried her face in her palms:

"Dora stop it! I am fine but I am in an awkward position." Dora bit her lips and turned to Ford. When she was all alone screaming Mahina's name in the artifact room, he was the one who saved her and brought her out of there. Although he told her Mahina was just fine. She found it hard to believe since her friend just vanished from her presence.

"I am feeling very hungry! I think I will start eating…" she turned to leave while stretching her body. Ford grabbed her by the waist and said:

"Don't you think you're forgetting something?" she ran her fingers through her hair and said:

"I am sorry!... I shouldn't have jumped into conclusion."
