She walked into the room 4 men held a younger male down on the floor she glorified in their nude male bodies struggling before making her presence known.
"Matthew, what is going on here dear?"
Matthew, a little larger than the others and eyes bright green dropped immediately to one knee.
"My Mistress, he acquired a sharpened piece of glass... we did not want him to harm you and attempted to take it from him."
He stated this as if providing a report... She glanced at one of Matthew's younger brothers, Mark who now held the piece of glass.
"Boy... if my men release you will you stop fighting?"
"I wont fight YOU...." his sweat sheened body was still tense still ready to fight but he had stopped struggling... for now.
"Release him and return to your places" The boys immediately let the kid loose and drifted to the outer ring of the room.
The boy fell to his knees and scurried to the wall farthest from her and the others.
"What is your name?" She stepped forward sitting on the bed near to where he cowered.
"Chris"
"Come on,Christopher, get off the floor.... I wont hurt you. "
He looked at the boys standing by the opposite walls.
She followed his gaze
"they wont hurt you either"
Slowly he got off the floor... still he pressed his nude football framed body against the wall.
"Come here... " she patted the spot on the bed next to her.
Slowly never taking his eyes from the boys he inched over to her and sat down. She watched him for a few moments... he was afraid but he wanted to show he was brave and... and what... what was that in his all too human eyes.
She could easily read his mind, most fairies could pull off that simple trick... but no that is not what she wanted.. She wanted him to trust her.
"I am not sure what you have heard of fairies.... But I swear to you I wont bite you... please sit down. I will show you how this all works" she motioned to the room and its occupants.
Chris takes a deep breath and sits beside her stiff and unsure of himself... he thinks "I was right.. She is not a human.." but he says nothing.
"Here, Chris, see where your brothers stand... the white area that is our spirit realm. Your brothers will remain in that realm unless I ask them to come closer or you pose a danger to either myself or yourself...as you did earlier. Do you understand so far?"
He hesitated "ya I guess"
She smiled "Good boy... the ring next to the spirit ring is blue... that is our water realm, and from there you have the green earth realm, the yellow air realm and finally the ring you are in the red fire realm. Do you understand?"
"Yea sure" though he answered the correct response I felt he was holding something back.
"Your brothers are going to come to you one at a time.... Remember that they will not hurt you, but what ever I ask you WILL do.. Just trust me I wont lead you wrong, Christopher."
