Falling ...
I looked over at the dark man again ... trying to read him. His eyes were ablaze with something I could not understand. He flashed a sinister smile in my direction, and I cringed inwardly. I would not give him the satisfaction of knowing he intimidated me. No, my queen would be disappointed. Looking at him blankly, I could tell he was pondering something very important. He paced back and forth as if confused. Suddenly, he stopped and slowly walked back towards me. I could feel my insides turn into a wet puddle of fear.
He said, "You are mine. You, my dear are a very precious thing to me. Your beloved Nydia has hidden the truth from you. She does not want you to know about who you are. Or should I say, what you are. I, Dimas shall tell you the truth. I will set you free of the binds that silly girl placed on you. You and I will become as one. We shall rule the Earth together."
My mind was racing at the words being spoken. What was he talking about? What did he mean Nydia didn't tell me the truth? What truth? Nydia would never betray me. She loves me. I have felt her touch deep down in my spirit. I belong to no one. Who does this man think he is?
He continued, "My sweet girl, you are a creation that defines the meaning of perfection. Oh, there are no imperfections anywhere. Inside and out. You are infused with a power so great, many fear your wrath. You have such a magnificent gift. Your body is like a temple to keep the gift untouched. I, can release your gift and power. I can make you see things you have never dreamed of. Better still, things that you have dreamed about. You look at me and you are afraid. However, soon you shall see through my eyes. I will leave you with that for now. You shall be well taken care of. Your every desire shall be granted. I will return to you in due time, my queen."
This man must be insane. Power? Me? I think not.
"My every desire will be granted? Then, set me free so that I may go."
He looked me straight in the eyes and said, "I have set you free, my love."
