TRAPPED: Miss Lovett

Chapter 3: The Eclipse of Unity

Lovett P.O.V

I felt a little burning sensation in my eyes, as I try to embrace the sunlight beaming through the window.

“Someone please close the curtains.” I mumbled under my breath, trying to shield my tired eyes from the sun.

I would get up to close the curtains myself, but this smooth silk duvet has me trapped in this bed. And my pillow smells like sweet lavender. Why dose my pillow smell like lavender?

Wait a minute! my broke ass can not afford a silk duvet.

“Ahh!” I gasped when I realised, I woke up in a bedroom that was not mine.

I quickly try to put my self together, but then I noticed the handsome Caucasian man laying beside me. When I saw my nakedness, memories of last night began to flood in, making me to feel embarrassed.

Mathew Jackson was going to kill me, for failing the mission. My only source of income came from being his maid, and now I do not need a signboard to tell me I am fired.

“F**k Lovett!” I cursed under my breath. I had one Job! And that was to reject him, not give him access to my pleasure gate.

I needed to think of something fast, because I can not go back to my job; I will be as good as dead.

I wanted to wake up Dezmond and explain my situation, but he looked so peaceful, and I did not want to intrude in his sleep.

My goodness! look at that perfect chiselled Jawline and luxury jet black hair. I drooled over his smooth milk skin, and noticed a tattoo of a giant wolf on his back.

It is crazy how one look at him, makes me to forget my problems. The peacefulness was cut short, when he began to shake and shouting no in his sleep.

I knew he was having a severe nightmare, so I tried to wake him up, but it was not working.

I could not understand where the idea came from, but I decided to wrap my legs around him, and rested his back on my torso; while I gently stroke his forehead.

I could feel him responding to my touch. He stopped shouting and shaking, but he was drenched in sweat and his temperature was high.

“you are going to be alright. Its only a nightmare.” I whispered into his ears.

“Get the f**k off me!” He ordered.

I was shocked. Did he just ask me to get off him, and spoke me in that manner? This piece of s**t is out off line, after I tried to help him.

“I said get f**k off me! Are you f**king deaf? Get the f**k off me!” He cursed at me, while trying to rip his body from mine.

I was too shocked to respond. why was he behaving that way? I asked inwardly.

He got up from the bed and try to c***k his neck, but then felt a little pain. He touched his neck, to locate where the pain was coming from. His eyes widened, and within seconds he was possessed by anger.

“You! YOU! YOU MARKED ME? YOU F**KING B**TCH!!!” He continued to scream at me, as he approached me.

I have never been this afraid before. My body kept producing endless amount sweat, and my hands trembled in fear.

“please Dezmond calm down! I have no idea of what your talking about.” I cried.

He grabs my neck and with my feet dangling in the air, carries me over to the mirror.

“Dezmond I can’t breathe. Your hurting me.” I tried to fight off his hands, but he was too strong.

He added more pressure on my neck, causing my head to feel tighter. My mouth was starting go dry, as I fought to steal little air.

“What on earth have you done to me? Who the f**k are you, to claim me?”

While still holding on to my neck, he slammed me on the mirror and looked into my eyes and said “ I can not and will not be trapped by you, because of a stupid mated bond!”

Black dots kept on appearing and disappearing in my vision, and any moment from now, my neck bone was going to be crushed. My goodness, is this how I am going to die?

Before we both knew it, a woman appears from nowhere and with magic; she pulls Dezmond Off me, causing me to land on the hard black marble floor.

My lungs gasped for air, as if all the air in the world will not be enough. My body had several cuts, due to the broken mirror particles on the floor.

I tried to get up, but then began to scream at my reflection when I saw my eyes.

Elsa’s P.O.V

I know I should have told Dezmond about the plans of the Goddess, but he left me no choice.

He thought I did the binding rituals because he ordered me too, but it was the request of the Moon Goddess.

She needed his wolf Aaron to recognise her, before he did. She knew Dezmond was going to reject her, as soon as he laid eyes on his mate.

The binding only stops him for craving his mate, but his wolf was still in search for her.

Tonight will be the night, when he finally finds his mate, but before he realises what’s going on; it would have been to late. He would have completed the second stage and that was all the Moon Goddess needed.

For normal mated wolves, you can still reject a mate after the second faze, but Dezmond will no choice.

*****

It was almost time. The plans of the Goddess was about to come to pass, and I could hear the Heavens sing.

I light up some black candles at the ulter and began to send prayers to Moon Goddess.

I hear the first drum, alerting me the first stage was complete and soon after that, came the sound of the second drum.

After hearing the drums, it was now time witness the eclipse of unity. I used magic and in a blink of an eye, appeared on the roof top.

I looked up at the sky and watched as the sun and moon came together and became one.

Think of it as a signature from both the Moon and the Sun Goddess, to finalise the marriage between Dezmond and his mate in the Heaven realm.

Every eclipse that came before this moment, was to remind us of a promise that is yet to come. Every eclipse that happens after this night, will remind us about a well Fulfilled promise.

Every supernatural being born of the Moon and Sun, except Dezmond and his mate; will involuntarily stop, to praise the eclipse.

As much as it brings joy to my heart, it also brings me great pain! For a war between a mother and son was about to begin.

When the eclipse was done, I went back to my room to catch up on some sleep.

********

During the early noon, a loud warning came to me, forcing me to wake up from my sleep. I took a deep breath to locate where the warning wanted me to go and it showed me Dezmond's room.

“ What on earth has done now?” I asked as I shook my head.

While I was still in my nightwear I made haste and appeared in Dezmond’s room.

I saw he was almost choking his mate to death, and without thinking I used my powers to get him of her.

When She started to scream, I threw Dezmond to the wall and ran to comfort her.

I covered her with the bed sheet , to hide her nakedness.

She held me tight and cried with a heavy heart. I could tell she was torn and was very confused about the whole thing.

when she had finally calm down, I asked her to put on some clothing, and then I focused my attention on Dezmond.

“Dezmond you are insane! Are you not bothered about the pack finding out?”

“Well I guess I should thank you, for making my room sound proof.” He replies with a smirk on his face.

“That was not my point!” I said angrily.

A look of sudden realisation appeared on his face, but then it quickly turned to disappointment.

“ Wait a minute! You know, don’t you? You know my wolf would recognise her!” He yelled.

He looked so betrayed. I knew if I was not powerful, he would have slaughtered me right were I stood.

“It was not my doing, but that of the Goddess.” I replied with, my head facing the ground.

“But you knew. You should have warned me about this w***e!” He said while pointing at the girl.

Dezmond could not see it, but I was no longer myself, the moon Goddess had possessed me.

Dezmond calling the daughter of the sun a w***e, made her furious. And she will not allow his wicked behaviour, to bring war to the Heavens. So she possessed me, to speak through me.

“You dear, to call her a w***e. She! Is! Your! Luna! And you will respect the title, that has been bestowed upon her!”

I could feel her rage, but I could not say a word. I just hoped Dezmond was wise enough to know, that he was standing before the Moon Goddess and not me.

He faced the body that was now owned by the Goddess, and spoke the words that would lead him to his demise.

“She is not my Luna. And I curse the Moon Goddess, for allowing me to mate with her.”

He then turned to the girl and says to her. “ I would rather die than to be your mate, Miss Lovett”

“Then so be it!” Those where the final words of the Goddess, before departing from my body.
