Beyond The Mirror

Howl's moving castle-Howl Jennkins Pendragon

It was an elegant mirror. It was beautiful yet mysterious. Allured by its beauty and charm, (Y/N) sauntered over. Carefully, she took it up and examined it, an adorable hand mirror it was ,slightly larger than normal. The intricate design had her charmed. Enamoured by the delicate and bizarre design, her eyes gazed into her own reflection, reflected clearly on the ancient piece of treasure.

"Is this the one that you're looking for ?" Came the polite and gentle voice of the waiter.

Yes, this was a teahouse, an antique one at that. It was situated in a tiny garden, surrounded by dainty and iridescent flowers of all kinds. Orchids ,tulips ,roses ,as well as daisies, and sunflowers, swaying in the gentle morning breeze. It was a perfect place to spend her lazy and relaxing afternoon, basking in the warm dayspring. There stood an attractive yet enigmatic waiter by the entrance.

He wore a masquerade mask. Those masks ,however ,did nothing to hide his bedazzled looks. He wore an aristocratic suit, which bestowed him an air of majesticness.

(Y/N) was stunned. She had lived here, in this tiny town all her life, and hadn't noticed such a peculiar place. It wasn't that the particular teahouse alone was surprising. The venue that the little teahouse was situated at was even more bewildering. Intrigued by the petite little shop ,she decided to give it a try.

Well, it doesn't hurt anyone to give it a try, right?

...Right?

☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

Noticing her footsteps, the waiter looked up with a simper, adding an air of gentleness. "Welcome to Howl's Moving Castle~." Smiling ,he opened the door as she entered. It was surprisingly luxurious on the inside. Gasping in delight and amazement ,(Y/N) sauntered inside with newfound enthusiasm. Seated comfortably on the featherlike cushion ,she took a menu and started ordering ravishing delicacies as she had quite a sweet tooth.

Perhaps the waiter had noticed her earnest glances as well as her extreme interest in the queer little cafe. He smiled as he asked affably. "Would you like to take a look around, my dear?" Chuckling lightheartedly at her eager response ,he extended his hand for her to hold as he escorted her around the teahouse.

Absorbed in her world of antiques, the waiter left her to prepare her sweets and beverages. Something from the corner of the teahouse caught her eye.

It was a mirror.

"I'd like to purchase this mirror. May I know the price ?" She asked hopefully as she savoured her dessert.

"My, my~Has this caught your eye?" The enigmatic and mysterious voice of the waiter was heard. Feeling as the cake melted in her mouth ,she replied ,returning him a close-eyed smile.

"Yes, this is one brilliant masterpiece!"

His smile never once faded as he watched the young girl leave, jovially humming to herself. Two eyes popped up from the fireplace as the fire spoke.

"Aren't you going to warn her?" An adorable voice was heard.

The waiter took a swift glance at the playful little fire as he answered. "Calcifer dear, you do know that Master Howl has been waiting for his beloved for such a long time. He must've been so,so lonely. "He stared thoughtfully at the path where the maiden had left.

"My oh my, my dear master is finally gifted with a mistress. A long-awaited one, no less."

"I don't think he'll ever let go of her."

A gentle yet otherworldly laugh echoed into the bleak morning sky.

♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧♧

Preparing to fall into slumber ,she placed the hand mirror on the nightstand. The said maiden turned off the lights ,as darkness overtook her chamber. Taking a final glimpse at the mirror ,she laid down and flipped the covers over her body, heaving a satisfied huff in the process.

The mirror shone brightly right at the witching hour, the twelve hour as they said ,or midnight. It was uncanny, certainly very, very uncanny. A Mystifying glow glimmered in the darkness. It was extraordinary and preternatural. An unearthed glow shimmered in the atramentous room, casting (Y/N)'s shadow on the ground. It was puzzling and baffling, and in all honesty, quite creepy.

The ray was luminous. It is definitely troublesome to have a bright glow directed towards you in your sleep. The same applies as (Y/N) frowned in displeasure in her slumber. Turning over and over, she gave up as she opened her eyes strenuously, blinking sluggishly at the luminous light.

'Did I forget to turn off the lights? It couldn't be so as the room was still unlit. Is that the moonlight? Did I leave the curtains open? '

Her thoughts flew a mile per hour as she sat up slowly ,sighing deeply as she did so. Her gaze fell upon the mirror, still gleaming in the dark ,dark chamber. Holding in a quivering breath, she picked up the enchanted mirror and examined it. A face was seen through the mirror. Nearing dropping the fragile mirror in fright, (Y/N) watched quietly as the face c****d its head to the side in askance. Silence hovered above the both of them ,casting an awkward atmosphere in between them, before one of them decided to speak up.

"Hi there." The face spoke. At the very least, it was a beautiful face.

Spooking the horrified maiden to no end, she hastily greeted him, or rather it. "H-Hello, I, how, you- I mean, how did you appear in my mirror." Sputtered (Y/N) at last.

"Whatever do you mean, my dear? You happened to be in my mirror too, honey." He replied. He was seriously attractive, unearthly so. His jet-black hair flowed down his shoulders, his eyes shone a pretty shade of blue , his stunning fair skin was as smooth as an infant, and his vocal cords were as melodious as any siren's. Jeweleries dangled down his neck and fingers ,shining just as brightly as his eyes. He was ,to be exact, as charming as any prince and as beautiful as any princess.

"Ah ,I see. That makes the two of us then. Who are you then?" Finding her own voice ,(Y/N) responded, calming down.

"Howl Jennkins ,darling. A wizard, one quite strong, too, if I may add. How about you? " Boasts the pretty sorcerer.

"I'm (Y/N) (L/N). If you're a wizard, then is this a spell? If this is ,then can you break it? " Was her response. (Y/N) asked hopefully.

Chuckling softly, he answered.

"Rest assured,this is no spell ,darling. It's just that it's lonely being a wizard ,you have lived for such a long time, and your loved ones left you as time passes. I just wanted some company. " he continued. "If you don't mind, (Y/N),could you give me some of your time every evening, and in return, you could summon me anytime if you need me. " He winked.

"Alright, I agree, Howl." She agreed nonchalantly. How bad could it be? She thought.

Just providing some company to the lonely wizard. More importantly, the wizard was stunning ,he was so much more appealing than any eye-candy. It soothes one's eye just by looking at him. He needed company , and she could give it to him, no big deal. She had lived in a small, quiet town. No one would question even if they did hear her talking to herself in the middle of the night. (Y/N) didn't mind as she nodded happily.

"If you don't mind ,O Great Wizard, I'll be sleeping soon ,it's getting quite late, and I need to work tomorrow." She joked lightheartedly. The wizard pouted.

"Sweet dreams then, (Y/N)~ See you tomorrow." He tittered. His eyes lit up, casting a quick spell to help her sleep. It was swift, just within a blink of an eye. Sleepiness overtook her within seconds, and her head hit the bed.

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

It was certainly unexpected how quickly their friendship blossomed. In a matter of days, the young wizard Howl was allowed to enter into her home through the mirror and stroll in and out of (Y/N)'s cottage. Spent mostly late dinners and suppers there since (Y/N) has to work till the evening. Still, there's one promise which (Y/N) did not dare to keep.

It was...

"(Y/N) dear ,when are you coming over to my palace ?"

Utensils clicking on the dining table, as the fire danced merrily in the fireplace, Howl asked, watching her reactions intently. This had been one of his habits of late, to watch her every movement and reaction. She looked up and shook her head. "Howl ,I wouldn't dare risk it. You're an enchanter. I wouldn't know whether your world might be running wild with monsters or with magicians." This was her tenth reply to this question this week.

"You won't, I assure you, I'll give you the best possible protection!" Howl replied enthusiastically. "As a matter of fact ,I've been learning your favorite dish as well as changing my palace to your taste. It'll be one comfortable trip, trust me, honey." Howl ruffled his hair in annoyance. How is it possible for her to visit him? How is he going to convince her to pay him a visit? Why won't she visit him? He just wanted to repay her for her hospitality and kindness.

"Still ,I'll pass, Howl. There are way too many possibilities, and anything might go wrong there. Thank you, though. " (Y/N) answered as she sipped her cup of coffee. "Oh, and I'll add some wood to the fire. It seems to be dying out. " She walked towards the fire in the living hall hastily, picking up some wood on her way there. "Howl, I'll clean up right after . You can return home ,I'll see you tomorrow, alright?" She called from the kitchen.

Howl Jennkins walked towards the fire as her figure disappeared into the kitchen hall. "Calcifer, what do I do?" He groaned at the blazing fire. "She seems to be avoiding my house. She never once showed interest in me. She never asked whether I had a lover. Why? Aren't I beautiful enough? " He sighed as he sulked sulently.

Eyes popped up as it glared. "Shhhhh, you wouldn't want your girl to notice me here, would you? " it replied angrily. "She has no interest in you,you hear? None. So stop forcing the young lady to come over to your place. She loves you ,yes ,platonically. " it huffed, irritated.

"I know ,but Calcifer, I'm lonely, so,so lonely. I need a life partner, a lover for eternity. "

"Yeah? How would you do that?" Replied the fire.

"An immortal potion, of course. One would never experience old age and dying after consuming that. It gifts a person a taste of eternal life. If only she's willing to drink it..."

"You're mad! You're definitely mad! Listen, if you dare force that potion down her, she'd hate you and loathe you for the rest of your life." Calcifer whisper-shouted.

"Howl? Howl? Are you there?" Hearing voices from the hall ,she took a glance at the living hall. Seeing no one in the hall, which puzzled her, she resumed washing the dishes.

"Strange, I swear I heard him talking in there."

The hand-held mirror laid by the fire ,sparkling as the reflection reflects the burning flames, dancing away merrily in the night.

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

It was one sunny afternoon, (Y/N) was shopping and buying groceries in the market. As she took a rest in a nearby teashop, a woman bumped accidentally into her.

"Ah, my apologies." Said the woman as she looked up apologetically. (Y/N) shook her head to say everything's fine when the woman grabbed her with wide eyes.

"You! You are the one who bought the mirror!" Exclaimed her in shock.

"Listen, my girl, throw that mirror away once you get the chance." She continued, huffing in the process. "You've met him ,haven't you? He's no joke ,that guy's insane, deranged even. "

"You've met him too?" (Y/N) asked the worked-up woman.

Madly waving her hands in the air as she spoke."Oh ,I did! Of course I did! Listen, child ,that man is a wizard ,I'm sure you've known it. Look, I didn't mean to terrify you, but I'm a witch. One of his acquaintances ,a very close one at that. "

The witch paused momentarily to see if the girl was following. "Listen, he's powerful ,a gifted magician from birth. But, he lacked affection. Which made him yearn for that. He desires it ,he craved it. That desire slowly twisted into one of insanity, one of obsession. Once he has taken hold of a person who can provide him that endearment ,he'll never , I repeat, Never.Ever. let go. So child ,leave now and never return if you could, heed my advice."

(Y/N) was terrified ,all she wanted was to give him some love and time. She thought that it was all he needed to quench his need for some attention, for he was lonely.'A wizard who had lived for decades, who can blame the poor soul for feeling lonely?' That was what the innocent girl thought.

"Come to me if you need any advice, child. I'm Witch Sophie. " The brunette lady said.

Gulping ,she nodded shakily as she thanked her with gratitude. "Thank you, I mean it! If it weren't for your advice, I would've been in grave danger. I'm (Y/N), nice to meet you , Witch Sophie. If you don't mind, I'll pay for your lunch."

(Y/N) walked down the familiar pathway leading to the quaint little teahouse. She felt bad to cut off this friendship when it had just bloomed, but she had no other choice. She held the hand mirror in one hand as she shuffled her legs.

"Weird, isn't this where the café was situated?"

There was no teahouse in sight ,instead, it was a bare land. This became more and more perplexing to her. A teahouse vanishing into thin air. Is that even possible? Was she hallucinating? What had happened? Sighing in defeat, she had to bring the mirror home. She couldn't just leave it on the ground. Two main reasons: She didn't have the heart to do so. Besides, what if she got cursed because of this?

'Just give a reason, and break off this relationship. It wouldn't feel as if I had abandoned him if that happened.' She thought to herself internally. 'Oh god ,how do I even face him later on.' She groaned into her palms.

◇○♡♤●♤♡◇♧♡○♡●♡◇♧♧●♡●♤

Howl ate his dinner. The one that (Y/N) had specifically prepared for him. Wondering why today's dinner was astonishingly fancy, he couldn't contain his surprise as he asked, "My dear, did I forget any occasion? Is it your birthday today? Or did I forget any festivals in your world?" He received a smile from (Y/N), a morose one.

"Howl ,let's have a chat, shall we? "

Howl paused slightly ,flinching at her formal tone before stuttering an answer.

"Oh ,why, of course, my dear."

"So, I figured I wouldn't be able to visit your world or your palace ,Howl. As I've stated a few times, it might be dangerous due to the unknowns there. At the same time ,I think it would be best for us to spend some time apart." Calmly ,she spoke.

"No, why would you do that?" Howl replied in utter shock and sadness. "Did I do something wrong? Did I do something that I shouldn't have done? Why, tell me why, my dear (Y/N), I'll change ,I'll definitely change. Just tell me what it is!" He whined like a kicked puppy in the rain.

It certainly tugged at your heartstrings, for he was such a great friend. "Howl, you were a good friend, honestly. But, being a friend with wizards has its own dangers. I wouldn't want to entangle myself in there. I couldn't live forever, you see. Thus, I couldn't satiate your desire to be your friend for eternity. Therefore, it's better for me to leave you while it's still early on."

Howl stilled. He gazed into your eyes,with a dangerous glint hidden within. "(Y/N)..."

"You've met her ,didn't you?"

"Who... who are you talking about? What are you talking about?" (Y/N) stood up from the table as she spoke.

"You've met Sophie, hadn't you?" When you gave no response, Howl's voice boomed. "Answer me, hadn't you?"

His growl startled you as you slowly backed away from the approaching wizard. " I did, I did! Howl, please, you're scaring me..."

"Oh? What did she say about me then? Come on ,now ,my dear, but do remember not to lie." He taunted as he walked closer to you. "Perhaps something about my childhood? That, maybe ,or something about my curse?"

"Just, just something to do with your emotions! Nothing else! Believe me!" (Y/N) cried as she backed away further from the fuming wizard.

"Hmm~Was she the one that told you to leave me?"

"No! That was my own choice, which has nothing to do with her! " You were practically screaming at that point. Regardless ,his pace never stopped as he continued advancing towards you. Terrified, you raced to your front door and unlocked it, wanting nothing but to escape this hell. Fortunately, he did not follow you. However, his smirk had never left his face.

The door creaked open finally

Revealing another room.

From the description of his castle during your shared teatimes,

This was --his place.

Escape from the pan, and dove right into the fire...

♡°■○■♡○◇●◇●♡●♡●♡◇●◇●◇●♡♡

"Is it to your liking, my dear?"

Hands were placed on your trembling shoulders. "Ah~ How nice it is to feel you, your heartbeats, and your breathing intoxicates me. To think that you'll want to escape from me, my dear, this truly disappoints me." Howl leaned close to your ears and whispered seductively.

"Howl, I, I don't wanna be here. Howl, I don't want to stay here! " Your begs went unheard as he smirks widens.

"Why, my dear. It's connected to your own home ,your dear little cottage ,isn't it? This is your home ,honey. " You flinched at his words.

"How do you like it ,(Y/N)? This was designated to suit your taste. Ah~ do remember not to open the door without my permission. It might lead you to someplace dangerous. "

"Howl! I don't want to be here!! I don't belong here!" Agitated by your own helplessness, you broke down as you pushed him off you roughly.

Sighing ,he tossed you onto his shoulders as he strode towards and up the flight of stairs. "Howl?! Hey, Howl?! Do you hear me?!"

Ignoring your cries as he opened the door ,most probably his room, and strode in. It was the most unimaginable chamber you've ever seen. It was as if you've walked into a cave filled with objects of all kinds. The room was glowing dimly ,causing (Y/N) to wonder where in the world did the light come from. It was indoors, and there were definitely no windows. None at all. In the meantime ,the pathway was split into two, making the complicated room much more complex. Everything was new to (Y/N) who had yet to experience the magical world that she was recently exposed to. Behind the colourful curtains was a bed. A huge bed.

Dreading from what's about to come ,(Y/N) struggled in his restraining hold. He gently took ahold of her with ease and held her down. Chains embedded with jewels were prepared ,who knows for goodness how long had he prepared for this moment. Howl grabbed her arms and legs firmly and placed a safety cushion on, to prevent her from bruising herself from the chains. Her fervent begging and struggling made her throat sore, and her limbs ached.

"Since words cannot express my love for you. Let's proceed with actions, shall we? "Were his last words, as a blood curdling shriek rang in his room. The wizard went out of his way to sound-proof the chamber for no disturbance. Hushing and shushing her cries of despair, he ripped her clothes apart with sheer force alone, stripping her naked. Red streaks of tears could be seen clearly as she tugged sharply at her restrains.

"Uh-uh, nope, don't do that." Howl tapped at her wrists, her skin was slightly peeled due to her continuous tugging on the constraints. He was deaf to her distress as he slid his fingers delicately onto her skin, feeling the curves and arches of her body. Sure, he could silence her with a wave of his hand. But he chose not to. Howl wanted to hear his beloved after all. Since now that her shrieks and screams had been reduced to squeals and whimpers.

Those chains did a perfect job of restricting her movements. Howl now has both hands free to roam her soft body. Gently holding one n****e in his fingers, Howl kneaded her breast, letting out a perverted gasp as he did so. He took one into his mouth and swirled his tongue around it, licking and sucking sensuously on the breast. Her body shuddered in intense pleasure as he roamed his hands southwards, still pleasuring her breast with his tongue and keeping her attention occupied. He opened her dripping wet entrance. As he slipped his fingers in, coated with her liquid.

Feeling something foreign inside her, her p***y clenched down tightly, longing to remove whatever was forced into it. "Gentle, my dear, gentle." Howl whispered into your ear as he tried moving his fingers, earning a low moan from you. Wriggling his fingers in a slow rhythm to get you used to this feeling ,you arched your back and whimpered in pleasure. "You are untainted, aren't you? My little virgin." He chuckled as he thrust his fingers in deeply. He stared into your melting face as he smirked. "You're close, honey, come on, now~"

Your first climax was hard. It came hard. Howl has certainly taken it to himself to make you feel your very first release. Even as you were still convulsing, his fingers stubbornly refused to leave your dripping hole as he thrusted in and out. Tears after tears of pleasure rained down your face. Howl gave you no time to calm down. The next question he asked had you paled.

"Are you ready?"

"NO! No, don't do it! I beg you!" You begged, you didn't care at that point. If you had to beg on your hands and knees to get you out of this ,you'll do it. You didn't want to lose your virginity to someone you didn't love ,at least not in that way. "Howl, don't, it'll never fit! I know it won't! I don't want to, Howl!" Hearing him shuffling and removing his clothes in the shadows had you stunned in fright.

"It'll hurt just for a second. Trust me, I've had more experience of this, more than you have ever known. " His words did nothing to calm your nerves. In fact ,hearing this makes you even more disgusted. He opened your labia with his fingers as you were forced to look on with wide eyes. Slowly, he pushed himself in, inche by inche, until he's fully sheathed in. Your p***y was forced open to accommodate his monstrous size. "See now, that wasn't too hard ,was it?" He shifted, earning a whimper from you and a grunt from him. It wasn't that he hadn't predicted that it would be tight, but it was a lot tighter than he thought. Moving recklessly would cause your p***y to get teared.

Whispering sweet nothing's to get you to relax ,his fingers wandered back to your n*****s ,tugging and flicking them. It took quite a while. However, as soon as you relax, he pounds into your p***y mercilessly. Broken hiccups and sobs were heard as he thrusted. His fingers busied with your breast.

Climaxing for goodness how long throughout this night ,Howl finally released you. Allowing you to slip back to the comfort of his bed. Once your head touches the pillow ,you fell into deep ,deep slumber. Howl silently and quietly unscrewed the cap of a certain vial, crept up to the sleeping girl, and tilted her chin up. He carefully tilted the bottle ,massaging her throat as he did so, to ensure that all the liquid had been consumed by (Y/N). Waving a hand to clean up this mess, he kissed her forehead to cast a spell to ensure that his beloved would get a well-deserved rest.

♤●♤●♤●♤●♤●♤●♤●♤●♤●♤

"How is she?" Calcifer asked as soon as he saw Howl walking down the stairs.

"She's fine, Calcifer." He chuckled to himself as he remembered her adorable mewls and whimpers.

"Did you give her the potion ,master?" The waiter asked as he gave an enigmatic smile.

"Of course, Markl. Thank you, though. She was truly the perfect gift." Howl patted the youth's head with a grin.

"No problem, Master! This was nothing compared to when you took me in and raised me." Markl smiled.

Howl waved as he retired to his chamber. Knowing that a certain somebody would certainly be there waiting for his return.
