Worlds Collide

Soulmate au 

Balem Abrasax x Reader

Warning(s): Cuss words, implied smut at the very end 

A/N: i tried to make it as gender neutral as possible and if there are any mess ups im sorry because i definitely wrote this under two hours and without my glasses because i was excited that i finally had the urge to write

word count:  1038

    Soulmates aren't a foreign concept to me. I know I have one because I have their age that we would meet on my wrist. However I assumed that I would never meet them seeing as the age on my wrist was 14,005. So I'm either soulmates with someone who’s been long dead or a god and i'm not sure which one I hate more. I accepted long ago that I’m never going to meet my soulmate so I chose to forget about him or her. I had both of my arms heavily covered in tattoos. Secretly I still know the age though,

    I sighed as I walked home from my job, something felt off but I silently hoped it was nothing. Every once in a while I would look over my shoulder. Nothing. Again. I still sped up taking different routes hoping that whoever was following me would get lost. 

     “Is that them?” I heard a whisper. I turned around, seeing weird flesh colored things staring as me. Before I could scream they raised something that I could only describe as a blaster and shot it at me. 

    Waking up in a cold sweat in a room you don’t know does something to people’s brains. So when it happened to me I was kind of taken aback. I looked around and everything was either black or gold. The bed you were tucked into was in a slight oval shape. The sheets were black while the duvet was black with what looked like gold branches. I sat up, confused about what was happening. 

    “Oh. It seems you’re awake.” I looked around trying to find where the voice came from but couldn’t figure it out. “I am what you would call an A.I. on your planet.” The voice said. 

    My planet? Where the fuck am I? I suddenly started floating and was pulled from the bed to stand up.I noticed that they changed me into a floor length black dress/ or black suit. “I’ll let Lord Baleem know that you’re awake.” Lord? 

    “Who the fuck names their kid Balem?” I wondered out loud. 

    “And who names their kid Y/N.” The voice was like velvet. It sent chills down my spine. I turned quickly to see if this was also an A.I. but saw a man clothed in an all black suit that surprisingly looked freaking amazing on him. He kept walking closer to me until I was backed up against a wall. “Personal space is a thing you know.” I said, not really thinking about what was going to happen as I was lost in his eyes. Something about him just captivated me, he was just so pretty even though he looks like he wants to kill everyone in his sight. 

    “You. I’ve been looking for you.” He looked down at my arms and I subconsciously hid the one with my soulmark behind me. “So you are ashamed.” Even though it was a question, coming from his lips it sounded more like a statement. Something about it though, pissed me off. I could never be ashamed of my soulmate. 

    “Who are you to tell me that I am ashamed of my soulmate? You don’t know anything about me.” I said, puffing my chest which wasn’t the best idea. He grabbed me by the neck, pushing me further into the wall. “I know the age of your soulmark. But I want to know why you covered it.” He whispered harshly in my ear. My nerves when haywire. Where his hand landed on my skin left the skin there tingly. I’m so fucking confused. 

    “We’re going to loop back as to how you know but having the age that's well over 1,000 years old, I just assumed I would never meet them. How did you know?” He just stared at me. Balem slowly let go of my neck and showed me his wrist, which is my age but like, so many people are that age so I don’t know what he’s trying to say. 

    “Yours has 14,005. I want you to guess my age, darling.” Oh. Oh! He's my soulmate. Holy shit I have a soulmate! Still though, it’s kind of fun to mess with him. “Like 28?” I asked and he just rolled his eyes at me and looked at me with bored eyes. 

    “Look around you. You are not on Earth. You are on Jupiter. So again, why would I take you from your planet if you provide nothing for me?” I smiled at him and shrugged. He sighed and pulled me into him, shoving his face into my neck. “I’ve been looking everywhere for you. I’m never letting you go.”

    “Can I still have my phone to talk to my friends?” I asked while looping my arms around him and he nodded, probably to shut me up. Suddenly the door vooshed open and a tiny little mouse looking man rushed in, spouting something about a harvest? Balem didn’t move from my neck and I just looked at both of them and shrugged. 

    “My lord I really need to-” “Get out.” Balem mumbled into my neck. “ What did you say my lord?” the rat man asked. 

    Balem slowly peeled himself from me, standing to his full height. He’s so pretty. He covered my ears with his hands and I just looked at him but I understood as soon as I heard a muffled “Get out!”. 

     We ended up just taking a bath together, his head on my chest while I ran my fingers through his hair. “Alien man? Are you like a king or something?” He moved his head to look at me in the eyes with a lazy smile. “I have a large amount of wealth and own several planets so I guess you could say that.” I nodded looking at him, “Eat the rich.” 

   Balem just stared at me, “You know that because you’re my soulmate, you are also rich now?” I kissed his lips, both of us smiling into it, “I know spaceman, so are you going to eat the rich or not?” He smirked at me and pulled us both out of the water, “Of course I am, soulmate.”

More than meets the eye

Balem x Reader scenario

"They targeted one of the refineries." the Sargorn reported, kneeling at the feet of the Primary as he looked over documents. "they're lowly thieves, just kill them." his hushed voice poorly hid his annoyance. "Well my lord, they caused some damage and... some of the RegenerX was..." the Sargorn, terrified at Balems expression, unable to finish his report. "How much was lost?" Balem now completely focused on him. "about one fourth my lord..." he stammered, causing Mr. Night to moderately panic. You stood by the side with documents in hand, only able to stand idly by and watch as Balem exploded. Many planets were ready for harvest, which caused ameteur pirates and thieves to attempt to steal the harvested RegenerX. They usually weren't a problem, but this particular Sargorn had continuously failed to keep them at bay, as far as you could gather. "This is the last time you fail me." Balem motioned his hand, guards then appeared next to the Sargorn. "Kill him."

"NO!" you ran in front of the Sargorn, "Lord Balem please! He-" you were cut off as he stood from his chair, visibly angry. Mr. Night appeared to be having a panic attack. You quickly knelled and looked away, "Forgive me my Lord. I was out of line." He approached you, "Forgiveness?" Balem said in an eerily cool whisper, "If he had taken care of those thieves and you remembered your place, there would be no need to ask for forgiveness. And you know quite well how I treat mistakes. Stand." you shivered as you arose to your feet, awaiting punishment. "Look at me." he said, gently caressing your cheek with malicious intent. You were too terrified to, afraid of what you might see. He pulled you hard by your hair and forced you to face him. "Look at me!" he demanded, on the brink of another explosion. You looked up at him, into his eyes, and after a small silence, he slapped you so hard you were thrown off your feet. "Leave." He ordered you. You scrambled to collect the documents you dropped and left before he changed his mind or did worse. Balem ran his fingers through his hair, fitting back into place strands that had come loose from his out burst. "Kill him." was the last thing you heard as you left. You weren't here by choice. That was your fathers doing. He was like the Sargorn, he made too many mistakes, but had offered you as a mild attempt at redemption of replenishing some lost RegenerX. Instead, he was killed. For some reason however, you weren't harvested but taken as a personal indentured servant, at the beck and call of the first primary, his Lord Balem Abrasax. It was very clear, even before your now daily experiences, that he was a man of business and profit, not much else. You assumed it was due to the fact you weren't too hard on the eyes, and having a pretty toy by his side would help make deals if the intimidation didn't.  You were in your room in the servants quarters, tending to your head and face; even the lightest touch stung with excruciating pain. Why did I try to intervene? you thought, He was just another Sargorn. but you knew why. You sympathized with the poor creature, being that you were in similar states of being at the mercy of Balem. Just the mere thought of being in his shoes and knowing that mistake would be your death brought you to tears. You cried, poorly attempting to wipe the tears away. You thought you were over this, but that's what you thought every other time too. Your gross sobbing was cut short by the attention grabbing cough of Mr. Night. He's the mousey rat splice that serves as what would be the equivalent of an efficiency manager. "Lord Balem wishes to see you." he squeaked. You sniffle and hastily rub away your tears in an attempt to be more presentable then followed him to Balems personal chambers.

"My Lord, _____ is here." he says after entering, then gesturing for you to enter. Your breath hitches as you try to recover from crying, passing Mr. Night as you cross the threshold. "Leave us." Balem says calmly, prompting Mr. Night to close the door behind you.

He was lounging at his desk against the circular room window just behind his bed. You weren't surprised that he worked even in his bedroom. Monetary means is the bottom line and nothing else matters. you thought as you stood a few feet away from the door, awaiting orders. "It has come to my attention that I may have been too harsh in my punishment of you." he says not even looking away from the document in his hand. "It's to be expected. I acted out of turn." you said, knowing anything else might end you up in the same place as the Sargorn. "It is not my intention nor a desire of mine to cause unnecessary damage to anything or anyone. There is nothing to gain from such acts." his voice half-hearten as he puts the document on the desk. Since when do you care? you thought. You stiffen as he approaches you, "It really does upset me when I project my rage onto you. Its unbecoming of me."  his hand caressing your cheek causing you to reflexively flinch. He pulls his hand away, "I do hope you don't hold it against me. I've grown quite fond of you." Is this his way of apologizing? It's not very good. "I've never done something like this before. Asking for forgiveness is quite a difficult task." his hand meets your chin and cradles it between his thumb and forefinger. As much as it pains you to, you understand where hes coming from. Hes a rich, handsome entrepreneur who's probably been spoiled all his life and never had to do labor let alone lift a finger. When would he have ever had to apologize in his life?

As cycles progressed, you noticed a definite attempt at softer interactions towards you when alone. You later learned from another servant that his mother was the same way as him when it came to having a mind for business and not much else. His mother huh? That explains a lot. The sky was dark as you were summoned by Mr. Night to Balems chamber yet again. As usual, you awaited what he had to say in the threshold of the room. He stood from his desk and made his way to you as leisurely as ever. You couldn't help but notice his attire: shirtless, glittering robe and pants, and his ever accompanying collar. "I hope you're fairing well." "I recently learned that you inherited your head for business from your mother." you retorted, curious to his response. His face turned dark briefly before a glint of sorrow blanketed his features. "Indeed I had. My mother was quite brilliant in regards to profit, and taught me many tricks of the trade. I quite dearly loved my mother. Why is that of interest to you?" "It would explain your behavior and difficulty with things such as apologies." your body naturally tensing as such an audacious response. "I suppose you're right. She wasn't much of a mother as much as she was a teacher." he approached you closer, "but that doesn't change how much she meant to me. tell me, how much do you love your mother?" what? why would he ask that? your face turned quizzical. "I... I love my mother. she birthed and raised me." you respond. "Your father had a hand in raising you as well. The same one who was so willing to give you up rather than face the consequences of his mistakes." You slapped him, "Only because you made him fear for his life! anyone would do something drastic if it meant saving their life!" you immediately regretted your actions and fell to your knees. "Even if it meant a loving father would have to throw his precious daughter to the wolves to save himself? Not even I am that cruel." he caressed the red mark left on his cheek. After a moment of silence, "Those refineries that cost that Sargorn his life were my mothers. That last one being her masterpiece. It would be a disgrace to her to continue letting incompetence defile her legacy." He moved towards the bed.

Your heart sank farther down. It never even occurred to you that those refineries would be anyone else's but his and that he wasn't as shallow as the bath of RegenerX that he clearly took a dip in recently. You got to your feet and slowly approached him. You couldn't completely change your feelings of his actions, but you couldn't disagree with his reasoning either. Face to face once again, you stared into his eyes, reflecting a void as dark as space, only being filled with your own visage. The short-lived moment was broken by his soft lips pressing against yours. Oddly enough, you didn't fight it as he guided you onto your back, the cushion of his bed being softer than you expected. He gave another kiss as he hovered above you, his arms supporting him. "I sincerely hope you'll let me cherish you, for I do care about you."

The morning came lazily as you drifted awake, slowly realizing that a body was closely embracing yours, draped only in silken sheets. You turn to see that body belonging to Balem, holding you from behind and resting his face in the crook of your neck. You couldn't help but admire his features in the morning light. A conflicting feeling still resting in your chest. This moment wouldn't last as the knock and squeak of a certain Mr. Night broke the silence. "Lord Balem, calculations for the recent shipment of RegenerX is here."

An audible moan escaped balems lips, "I shall see it soon. Leave me for now." he manages to say. You turn to him, astonished. "But Lord--" You're cut off as he kisses you good morning, "The only thing that matters right now, is you."

His Lover A Warrior

(Balem Abrasax X Guard! Reader)

Imagine Being Balem Personal guard and a secret lover.

This is also my very first Balem Abrasax one-shot. Hope you guys like it!

(Y/n)’s POV

It was silent as It was just me and Balem in his throne room waiting for the guess to come in and talk business. “You're quiet.” Balem said softly as I stood by his side. “I’m just thinking my Lord.” I said as I saw a slight frown when I said his title. “I have a sick feeling that one of those men is hiding something.” I finished as I turned to look at him.

This pecked his interest since I was always right with my gut feeling human or not. “You sure you not ill my love?” He asked as he turned to look at me. “If I was then I wouldn’t be with you My Lord.” I said bowing my head slightly. “Stop.” He said causing me to smile at him slightly. 

“You know how much I hate it when you call me that.” He said sternly causing me to laugh softly at him and stood straight up. “I am only equal to those that serve you Lord Balem. I am nothing more and nothing less.” I said as I turn to look ahead. 

“And that is why I fallen for you.” He said softly as I smiled at him slightly. “You can be more then powerful if you where my Queen. But you refuse just to stand by my side and fight with me instead of hiding away where you can be safe from everything.” He said as I bit the inside my cheek to prevent myself from blushing at him.

“I am not afraid to fight My King.” I said as I saw him smile slightly at what I called him. “Nor am I afraid to die for you.” I added causing him to frown at me. He was about to say something only for me to look at the door as it opened. I frown as I watch Cygnus who held a confident aura around him.

“The next Harvest well happen tell 5 years.” I heard one of the guest said as I felt someone looking at me. I look around as I saw Jace one of my many trusted guard I have. “Well you excuse me.” I said softly as I saw Balem looking at me. He frown but nod his head telling me I could go.

I gracefully walked out taking notice of more them one eyes on me. “(Y/n).” Jace said as I look at him with a raised eyebrow. “What is it?” I asked him as I saw William, Phil, and Andrew here as well. “There are bombs near the gates.” William said causing me to stiffen slightly. “Andrew, Jace find there person who put them there and bring them to me. William, Phil put the bomb on Cygnus Chipper and a tracker.” I said as they bowed there head and smirk darkly as they left.

I smirk ever so slightly as I walked back out towards Balem side. “Someone place bombs at the gate.” I whispered to Balem as nobody seems to notice our little extends of words. “Andrew and Jace went to find the ones who put them there while William and Phil when to put the bombs in Cygnus Chipper." I said softly as I saw his finger slightly twitch.

My smirk never fluttered as I stood straight up and look to see Cygnus looking at me. I raised and eyebrow at him causing him to quickly look away from me and back to Balem who seems to see his stare towards me. “Is there a problem Cygnus?” Balem asked scaring all the guess. “Why do you have that earthling whore with you all the time.” Cygnus asked causing me to laugh at him.

“If I where you. I wouldn’t judge what you see.” I said as I saw the dark look in Balem eyes. I disappeared and reappeared next to Cygnus and placed my dagger on his throat. “If you must know. I’ve probably have killed more people them Balem has ever streaked fear in them.” I said darkly as I saw Balem raised up his hand. 

I huffed slightly then took the dagger down and disappeared and reappeared next to Balem again. “Never underestimate my guards Cygnus.” Balem said slightly calmed for what Cygnus called me. “Mistress! We found an Intruder.” I heard Jace yelled causing me to look at Balem.

“Go ahead.” Balem mumbled letting me take full control of the interrogation. “Who hired you here?” I asked softly as if I was talking to a child. The poor boy looked up at me in pain causing me to look at both Andrew and Jace. ‘He was already like this when we found him.’ Andrew said in my mind causing me to nod.

“Who did you see?” I asked again as I crouch in front of him. “There was two other guards I haven’t seen them around here.” The boy said as I placed my index and pointer finger on his chin making him look up at me. “Where they with somebody?” I asked as he nod his head then looked at Cygnus. “It was him.” The boy said then everything happened so quick.

I stood in front of the boy as I felt a sharp pain on my shoulder. “NO!” Balem yelled as Andrew hold Cygnus by the throat in the air while Jace is by my side. “Mistress.” Jace called as I groan slightly. “Fuck it hurt.” I mumbled softly as I saw Balem by my side. “Take him away.” Balem said to Andrew who grins at Cygnus. 

“With pleasure.” Andrew said as Balem glared at the others. “Leave us.” Balem said as Mr. Night come back with a healer. “I’m fine.” I said softly as Jace helped me sat up and Balem placed a hand on my lower back. "Master your lossing too much blood." Jace said as I felt my eyes grow heavy.

3rd Person POV

(Y/n)'s eyes grow heavy as Balem started to panic. "(Y/n)? Don't close your eyes. Stay with us." Balem urged as the healer tried there best. "Master this is gonna hurt." Jace said then pulled out the dagger causing (Y/n) to gasp and whimper in pain.

Balem panic as he watch his lovers tried her best not to fall into a deep slumber one that she might not be able to wake up from. Even though Balem and (Y/n) love for each other was secret it was obvious for a few people to see through them. Other think they would make a great king and queen.

"Master your gonna make it. You just need to fight okay." Jace said softly as Balem looked at him. "This is the best I could do." The healer said bowing there head as Balem pulled (Y/n)'s body closer to him. "Thats all your can do?!" Balem yelled as Jace looked at the boy.

"Lord Balem. You are in no position to take charge." Jace said causing Balem to glare at him. "Master told me when your emotion is out of control that William will take charge tell your back to your usual self." Jace said as Balem looked at him then back to (Y/n). "Take her to your room. Then we can see what we can do to Cygnus." Jace said just as William and Phil came in the room.

"What happened?" William asked as he saw Balem pick up (Y/n) sleeping form and carried her bridal Style. "Cygnus. We got to make sure Andrew doesn't have all the fun." Jace said darkly as William nod his head and look out Balem. "Well wait for your orders when you come back Lord Balem." William said them walked away.

To anyone who would have just said that and left Balem would had them killed or scared them to there own graves. But since this (Y/n)'s well trusted guards he had no questions or doubts against them. "Come on boy." Jace said as Balem walked off toward his chambers.

Dance With The Devil

(Balem Abrasax X Reader)

Inspired by a song called 'Dance With the Devil by Breaking Benjamin' listen to it before reading this and I think you might understand what this one-shot imagine is about.

(Y/n)'s POV

There was to be a ball in the Abrasax palace in Jupiter. And as the 'Ruler' of earth I had to go. "Master. Why do you look so blue?" William one of my Advisers asked me. "There is to be a ball at Lord Balem Abrasax Palace." I said wrinkling my nose. Even though I know so little of the said lord doesn't mean I haven't heard the rumors.

I would always send my man to go to the meeting for me since I get ill so easily. "Do you wish for us to go?" Jace asked causing me too look out the window of my Palace. "No. I think I'm strong enough to go." I said softly as I got up. "As you wish." Phil said as I turn to look at them. "Boy get change and get the ship ready." I ordered as they all bowed then left my room.

I quickly change into a dress and put on my masks. Even though it was just a regular ball I still felt the need of a mask. "Mistress your crown." I heard one of my handmaiden called out causing me to sigh softly before bowing my head to let them place the white crystal crown on my head.

"Thank you." I said softly as I gave them a small smile. "Can you tell the guards to meet me at the gate." I said as she looked at me confused. "Which ones Mistress?" She asked as she helped me walk out my room. "The heartless Guards." I said as Phil waited for me outside my chambers. "Right away Mistress." She said as she pass me to Phil before bowing her head and left.

"I hate when people treat me like that." I mumbled as I looped my arm around Phil's. "Like what master?" He asked with a small playful smirk causing me to glare at him. "Like I'm royalty. I'm just as equal to you all then anything else." I said with a small huff causing Phil to smile at me with adoration.

"And that why we all respect and love you master. You always put us ahead of you when you shouldn't. You always treated us as if where family when we ain't. And you would always share us your true words of wisdom which we all grown to love about you." Phil said causing me to smile at him as we walked down the long corridors.

"We are family. Blood or not. I well always care for you all because you all are like me children growing up so fast." I said softly as we made it to the bridge that lead to a small beautiful ship. "Mistress. You called us?" I heard a deep raspy voice said causing me to look up and smile at the large Wolf.

"I need you and the others to watch the palace for me. I'll be going to a ball. And nobody is allowed in no matter who or what they are. And if they insisted to come in then take them to the interrogation room and call upon me or William." I said as the wolf bowed his head. "Of course Mistress." He said as I went to go hug him.

"And please be safe. All of you." I said pulling away as the wolf nuzzled his large nose on me causing me to giggle. "Always." They said the disappeared I’m the shadows as I saw William, Jace, and Andrew at the Ship waiting for me. "The ship is ready Master." Andrew said causing me to smile at them.

Time Skip

"Mask on boys." I said softly as they did what there told. "I hope this is over quickly." I mumbled as we waited by the door. Then they stood around me like a guards William was in front of me, Phil is to my right, Jace is behind me, and Andrew is to my left. I smiled softly at the boys protectiveness over me.

Once the door opened we walked out in perfect sync as I felt people looking at me. "The Queen of Earth." I heard of of the guard yelled getting everyone's attention. "Just what I needed." I said as I held my head up high and walked to a corner of the room to set on and empty couch. "Your not dancing?" Andrew asked causing me to look up and him as I crossed my legs.

"There is no need to." I said softly as I saw some man looking at me with lust and excitement in there eyes. "I'm in a room full of pigs." I mumbled causing the boys to chuckle. "I shall get you some food Master." William said as I waved my hand at him.

William quickly left as Andrew sat next to me on my left, Phil to my right, and Jace sat on the floor in front with his back towards me. "Its so dreadfully." I mumbled as I run my fingers through Jace’s hair causing him to close his eyes and purr to my touch. "The Queen of Earth." I heard causing me to look up to see two men and one woman stand in front of me.

"Sadly yes." I said looking at them. "I haven't seen you in the meetings." The eldest looking man said causing me to roll my eyes at him. "Why go to a meeting filled with pigs who just want to use my planet." I said broadly as William came back with a drink of water and a plate of food.

"Master." William said getting the three attention as he pass the plate to Andrew and gave me the cup of water. "Thank you Will." I said as I gently grasp the cup. "Plus I have no need of your money. What the point?" I asked looking at them. "It only a game between you three. Two trying to kill the oldest just to destroy what he created and tried so hard to build." I said as my eyes meet the forest green ones.

"How." The youngest man asked as I glare at him sharply making him shut up. "The Queen knows all." Andrew said as I stop playing with Jace’s hair and took a sip of my water. "Why do you think she's the only one to rule earth?" Phil asked as Jace looks up at me with a pout. "Boys you go have some fun." I order as they hesitated a bit.

"I would like to talk with you Lord Balem." I said getting up and walking off as the boys walked around the room. "It amused me how you found no time to just kill your sibling so no more of your time is wasted." I said as I turn to look at Balem. “Like you said It’ll be just a big waist of time.” He said as I raised an eyebrow at him.

“Shall I have this dance?” I asked as I took out my hand for him to take. Balem smirked as He took me to the middle of the dance floor as I started to hum a song. “For a Queen of Earth you really are beautiful.” He said as I took notice of people staring at us. “Beauty is nothing to me. I’ve seen more at home.” I said softly as I placed my hand on his shoulder.

“I doubt that Little Bird.” He said as I intertwine our fingers. I just smiled as I continued to hum then started to sing softly.

(Dance With The Devil by Breaking Benjamin)

Here I stand, helpless and left for dead/ Close your eyes, so many days go by/ Easy to find what's wrong/ Harder to find what's right

I believe in you, I can show you that/ I can see right through all your empty lies/ I won't stay long, in this world so wrong

Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight/ Don't you dare look at him in the eye/ As we dance with the devil tonight

Trembling, crawling across my skin/ Feeling your cold dead eyes/ Stealing the life of mine

I believe in you, I can show you that/ I can see right through all your empty lies/ I won't last long, in this world so wrong

Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight/ Don't you dare look at him in the eye/ As we dance with the devil tonight

Hold on, hold on

Say goodbye, as we dance with the devil tonight/ Don't you dare look at him in the eye/ As we dance with the devil tonight

Hold on, hold on

I sang with as soft kind smile at I look at Balem. He picked me up and spines me around before gently placing me back down. “Goodbye.” I said bowing my head a little breathless. everyone started to clap as I felt Balem staring down at me as I smiled at everyone.

“You Majesty.” I heard causing me to let go of Balem’s hand and turn to see William. “What is it?” I asked softly as Balem stood close to me. “You have your appointment. We must leave or you’ll be late for your treatment.” He said causing me to look at him with a small frown.

“Appointment?” Balem asked as I turn to look at him with a shy smile. “There is a reason why I haven’t been able to go to your meetings. I am very ill.” I said as William went to find the others. “And the song you where singing?” He asked as he stood in front of me. 

“Um...” I stumbled as I felt myself blushing. “It was just a s-song I he-hea-heard at h-h-ho-home.” I strutted as he grin at me and slightly leaned down towards me. “It’s called Dance with The Devil.” I added trying to look away only for him to place his thumb and index finger on my chin.

“Am I the devil?” He asked as I look deep into his forest green eyes. “I..” I started as I felt my whole face heat up. “I wouldn’t.” I said as I took his hand noticing he was very close to my mask. “I don’t need you to see me like this. I’m not pretty as the woman here. And I’ll never be.” I said to him as I saw a small glint in his eyes.

“Who said I want woman like them.” He said softly as I felt my breath get taken away. “You don’t won’t me. I won’t last long in this world. I don’t want to put you through so much because of me.” I said softly then moved away. “The ship ready Mistress.” Andrew said as I follow him quickly leaving Balem there by himself.
