His Captive Girl

Chapter 3: Prince

Jake

I went down and sat on the sofa in the living room once again. Is she gonna be alright? What if they catch her… no-no. That cannot happen. I will not let that happen.

I started thinking of something. If I catch everyone’s attention, they will not look at her. I started going towards the gate slowly. I know this is suicide. But I will do this.

“Where are you going?” I heard Dad’s booming voice. I looked at my front, he was standing near the gate.

You can do this.

“I won’t live here anymore,” I wanted to yell, but it came out like a whisper. “I cannot”

“Oh my dear boy!” he faked. “You wanna suicide?”

Maybe I was not that brave, I couldn’t say yes.

“Jake, go back to your room. You will be given your position in our kingdom just in a month”

I looked down. How can I do this to her?

“Or, we can fasten the process and make you the prince by the end of the week. Whenever you are ready”

I nodded my head in denial. “I think I’ll wait for a month”

“Okay,” he said and I slowly made my way towards the room.

I sat down as I took out my phone. At least I should have given her my phone. I am so stupid. I heard yelling down the stairs, so I went there and I could see dad screaming at mom.

“Where the f**k is Alicia!!” he screamed. “How can you be so oblivious!”

“I...I didn’t know...:” mom stuttered.

What is her fault? He is the one who wouldn’t let mom even out of the kitchen in the day time. 

“You know I did a great favor when I let you live!” 

She started crying. I couldn’t see it. Why does this happen? She is the one who gave birth to me. How can I see this?

I took a step downstairs. Dad looked at me. “Go back, Jake, now!” 

I kept coming down as he looked at my courage and then I hugged mom. She looked startled but then caressed me. “Go back… Jake…” she whispered.

“Mom, I am gonna make this right,” I assured her and she smiled sadly.

“Okay, right now, go”

I looked at dad, who was flaming in anger. “Okay… bye mom”

I started going upstairs. “You are not going to get away without punishment. You know that, right?” I heard him.

“I don’t care,” I replied.

Maybe I wasn’t afraid that time, or I just hated them too much because they were the reason I was not with Aly. They were the reason Alicia isn’t safe. They. He isn’t alone. They all did this s**t together.

Alicia

“Woah!” I was astonished as this guy showed me the greatest thing I have ever seen - this world, even from the cave. Wait. What’s his name?

“Um… what is your name?” I asked awkwardly, giggling.

“Eddie,” he smiled. “Eddie Smith”

I smiled at him. “Your name is cute”. He smiled back.

“Okay, the plan: follow me. We will now stop at the next safe spot. Now. You need to rest or are you ready?”

“I don’t need rest. I just wanna get out…”

“Great. Follow me, then!”

He looked out of the cave to make sure no one’s around. Then he told me to come.

We went out and secretly, hiding behind trees and big stones, we started moving. 

“But…” I asked him. “Why are the streets so quiet? Why is there no one?”

He looked down and continued moving. I thought maybe he didn’t know either.

“Because…” he finally said. “Because the king doesn’t want to see any happiness”

I looked at him with shock. What kind of king is he?

“Oh…” Well, I kind of knew that the king wasn’t of course the best.

“Can you run?”

“Always waiting for you to say that” I replied.

He smiled and said, “go!”

I ran with him and we were soon in our second safe spot. It was a smaller place. Too small, actually, but beggars can’t be choosers.

“Hey, come,” he said and I followed him.

We went down whatever-place-we-were-at and then there were stairs. The stairs led to the forest.

“Come on,” he whispered and I followed him out.

The forest was beautiful. The trees… they were the best thing I ever saw. And the effect of the sunlight… this nature is magical.

“Hey,” he said and I looked at him. He came to me. 

“Yeah?”

“You like it?”

“Of course…” I looked around and then at him. “It is beautiful”

He smiled and came closer. I looked at him with shock, as he came more close.

“Yes it is beautiful…” he leaned down, close to my face.

“Yeah…” my heartbeat raced, I almost knew what was gonna happen, but I didn’t go back and I don’t know why.

Slowly his lips touched mine and all I felt was pleasure. He kissed me softly and his hands went to my neck. “You are beautiful…” he whispered.

I kissed him back slowly. I didn’t know how to kiss, but I just copied him. And well, it worked.

He kept on kissing me for the next at least 2 minutes. Then he went back. He looked into my eyes, which showed him how much… I loved it.

He smiled widely while capturing my lips again and this time, more roughly and I kissed him back again. We kept on doing that for a while and then parted. 

“L-Let's go,” he broke the awkward silence after a while and I blushed harder. 

“Y-Yes”

He started going and I followed him. This time, I was happy. So much, that I never have been this happy even on my birthdays, that I really loved. Although, no one celebrated them except me and Jake.

So yeah, this is a new feeling and not to mention, the best.
