Sirens of the Abyss

Chapter 13

-Faleen POV-

I woke up in a daze. I didn't recognize this room. Where was I? And who brought me here?

My body felt so heavy  and my head was pounding. I didn't want to get up. I didn't want to do anything. My heart still ached knowing I would never see him again.

I wanted to be close to him and wanted to hear his voice again.

I made myself get up and look around the room. It was like a normal bedroom nothing special. A bed, drawer and a lamp.

I wonder if Cleo or my mother knew about father. They probably didn't even care. I wanted to go back on land again to the last place I was with him. The cabin he gave me just before I left. I still had the keys. I just had to find a way out.

I walked to the door and opened it. It was dark but lite with candles. I closed the door quietly behind me and tip toed down the hall and down the stairs.

The last time I tried to find my way out I went to the creation room. I decided to go a completely different direction this time but ran into the silver armored guards guarding the huge double doors.

I walked up to the door to see if they would let me pass but their silver tridents stopped me.

"Halt who gives you permission to pass?" The guards towered over me and I thought of the only person I could think of at the time.

"Theo of the Seven Seas has asked me to go on an errand for him," I lied.

The guards looked at each other doubting my response.

I shrugged my shoulders,"Okay well if you don't believe me I'll have to go tell him you wouldn't let me through. He might be the one coming with me next time and I'm pretty sure he won't be too happy you disobeyed him,"I started to slowly walk away pretending I was going to get Theo.

"Alright, you may pass," they simultaneously pounded the end of their tridents on the ground and  the doors opened.

The outside looked like a shimmering blue mirror. Like the top of a pool being hit by sunlight. I was surprised the water didn't flow in. I walked into it and started floating on the other side and I started to change forms instantly my dress didn't stand a chance against my spikes and it ripped away. I saw pieces of the white fabric dancing down to the depths below and got my first glimpse of Abynea.

The dome behind me was just the middle of it. I swam higher to see it fully and it looked like a gigantic circle. I saw the people below and a child pointing up at me  was clapping her hands. The people below were not like me. They had flippers like a scuba diver and slits which I figured were gills on there necks but they wore bright shimmering clothes. You could almost confuse them with a school of fish. Buildings that looked like giant coral reefs. Poseidon must of wanted it to look this way so it would be some what camouflaged.

The city was breath taking but I only stayed for a moment before I headed to the shore and for the last place I had been with my father...the cabin.

Delilah POV-

Sneaky little thing she was..used Theo's name to get out too. I smiled wickedly and pranced back to our bedroom. "Oh well what they don't know what hurt them," I said to myself.

I was back at our bedroom now and Theo was sitting at his desk reading heavens to god knows what. Man he bored me. He liked to read and learn about everything. Ugh.

I closed the door behind me and locked it. "Delilah..." Theo said still reading his book. "Unlock the door," he said.

I didn't unlock it. I walked towards him twirling my dark brown locs around my finger. "Theo...we never get any time alone together...your always doing something else then spending time with me," I said and pouted.

He glanced up at me and took a deep sigh and put the book down. "Alright you have my attention. What do you want to do?"

I had his attention now but he already knew what I wanted. He just kept making excuses not to or we were interrupted by that Luna maid or whatever she was. He couldn't get away now I'd locked the door.

I slid my finger across his desk making my way around to him and straddled him on his chair. "You know what I want," I whispered in his ear.

He leaned back and faced me,"I already told you it's not happening Delilah. We aren't married yet and technically don't have to have an heir to the throne." He pushed me off him and I snatched his glasses and put them on myself.

"Well...what if I just wanted to fool around," I winked at him and he turned his back to me.

"Come on Theo you act as if you've never made love before which I know is not to be true," and it wasn't according to some ladies here they had, had some steamy nights with him. He turned and leered at me. I loved getting him riled up he was much hotter when he was mad.

"You know you make it hard to like you when you act like a b***h," he said glaring at me.

I got up from the chair and got up on the bed. "Come on your such a stick in the mud. Be reckless once in your life. Always playing by daddy's rules." I unzipped my dress and started to seductively pull it down. He turned his head. "NO" I snapped my hand and his head turned automatically back towards me. Nice little trick father taught me to make my play thing stay where I wanted it.

"Knock it off Delilah. I mean it," He started to strain his head but of course I was the only one who could release him. I got off the bed to slipped the rest of my dress off showing off my lingerie set. I walked towards him and pulled his shirt down towards me and bite his lip and released him from my spell. He kept trying to look like he didn't like it but what man didn't like a woman who took control? Especially him, mister "Oh I'm a book loving good boy" that was bullshit.

Everyone had a weakness I was going to find his. I started to undue his belt and he snatched my hand. He was glaring at me. "Get your dirty little hands off me," he growled. I released my hold and held my hands up as if to surrender,"Okay..then you can be in control if you want" I walked back to the bed and laid down facing him. I patted the empty spot behind me. "Come on, show me whose boss," I smiled and licked my lips at him.

He turned away from me.

 "You know whats funny...I think you would be ripping my clothes apart if I looked like someone you wanted...you know someone with black hair and brown eyes and that curvy body," He turned to me now and his jaw was clenched. "Or better yet let me change into her," I snapped my finger and my body become hers. One of my better tricks but only good for a certain amount of time.

I blew a kiss to him,"That better?" He lunged at me and I felt a sting of a knife near my throat. "Change back now," he growled in my ear. I strained to talk, "Why you know you like it. Lets just play pretend?" I started to laugh manically. He then grabbed both of my wrists and held me down. "I swear to god Delilah, I've never hit a woman in my life but you are getting close to me breaking that pact with myself," his eyes were on me...no her. His eyes dilated and I caught a glint of lust in his eyes. He wanted me to change back because he wanted the person Id changed into. I started to smile.

Gotcha.
