Loved

Mikayla’s chair scraped roughly behind her as she flew to her feet, anger and fear rushing through her. The burning of her eyes and tremble of her lips paled in comparison to her heart rate. “I was created!? Just brought into existence to level the playing field!?” She brought up air quotes through shaky hands.

He wouldn’t even look at her, he had the audacity to look ashamed. Eyebrows tilted down as he clenched his fist close on the table.

“You’re saying Gabriel never cared about me? Just poofed me into existence to stop a curse then threw me to Earth! Thank God I had someone to take care of me! I would hate to think what would happen to your precious female Fated if she would have ended up in the gutter!” Her shaking started as a white-hot rage swirled throughout her like it had in the hall. It was clear now shaking and heat were the first signs of her using her demon powers.

Anock looked up studying her current situation. He spoke as she breathed like a freight train. “Just listen. I know it sounds bad, and, it is but turning into a giant snake isn’t going to help.”

Asshole.

“Can you read my thoughts or something?” She said putting her hands on her hips. She had just thought that same line not ten minutes ago.

He smirked. “No. I mean I could, but for our love to form naturally. For the ritual to work. We both have to be in love with each other, for real. No manipulations. I can’t risk invading your mind and anything going wrong in this ceremony. No tricks.”

His words melted the anger and she stood still and totally blank not knowing whether or not he was serious. When he sat still staring, she knew he was serious and unable to help it, laughter bubbled her throat and loudly out of her mouth. Before she could stop it, she was bending over holding herself up on the table, laughing like a mad woman, while a stitch of pain grew in her side.

He really thought she could fall in love in two days? With someone who kidnapped her? With someone who admitted to being in attendance with her father when it was proposed to “create her.”

“Are you done?” Anock said, a deadpan to his voice. She muffled her laugh, wiping the tears from her face.

“Yeah continue.” She said trying to smother the smile forming. It was official, she’d lost it. In no way was this funny, but she apparently needed a loony bin because she couldn’t stop laughing at the joke of her life. It explained why she didn’t fit in anywhere.

He motioned for her to sit. As she scooted in, he refilled her wine and waiters came around the table serving them their meal. A steak with a side of shrimp parmesan and steaming vegetables were on both their plates, and the smell was amazing. She grabbed at her stomach as it growled and Anock chuckled. She looked up at him embarrassed and he simply motioned for her to eat.
