"Who are you?" Asked the wide-eyed wizard.
"Me? I am July."
The wizard smiled as he looked the lithe creature sitting on his floor and smiled.
He crooked his head to look at her. " July like the month?"
The girl shifted bringing her knees to her chest. "Yes." She said through barred teeth.
Gabriel, the wizard, could tell she was agitated and afraid. You would be too if you were suddenly in a place you'd never been. July didn't just stumble upon this strange place., No she was transported here by Gabriel.
"Why am I here?" July growled.
Gabriel continued to look her over, licking his lips contemplating her. She sat staring back at him for a while then she got angrier when he didn't answer her.
Her spine prickled with rage as she moved to stand.
" Why the hell am I here?" she shouted.
"Shhh. My feisty one." Gabriel started to walk around July in a tight circle, this made July even more nervous. She continued staring at him her violet eyes seemed to pulsate with a mixture of fear and anger.
"You are here because my magick brought you here." Gabriel reached out to touch her face
" If your so called magick brought me here, then why didn't you know who I am?"
"Because I simply conjured a fey I didn't specify what fey I wanted."
"You did not conjure me, I have existed in other places than this one." She stated proudly.
"I have not said I created you merely transported you" Gabriel knelt putting his hands on her knees, July did her best not to flinch as his sweaty palms slid to her thighs.
"You are to be mine." Gabriel's mouth twisted into a wicked smile.
July bit her lip. " I belong to no one." She sounded defiant
Gabriel moved in just inches from her dark red lips " you are mine now."
He kissed her hard. July was unsure of what to do so she went limp against him.
He pulled away and he was laughing. "in time my fiery temptress you will learn to please me."
July did learn. The wizard taught her just how to please him. Every night there was a lesson. She didn't really like his lessons but he told her it was her duty. That duty almost made her ill.
"Hello my pretty one." That was his usual nightly greeting. July rolled over to face the door. The wizard stood there in his fine black robe, she smiled because even though he held July a captive he was still very nice and very understanding of her.
She smiled and pulled back her bed sheet, Gabriel climbed on her bed kneeling next to her.
"How was your day?" he asked stroking her hair in a most tender fashion.
"It was boring I read in the library all day." She frowned slightly. Gabriel kissed her.
He touched her petal delicate skin; July felt the power he wielded under his skin. It felt like a leopard being kept at bay. She wanted Gabriel to let the leopard loose on her. Only when they were doing ritual magick did he even come close.
Something deep inside her propelled July toward his mouth she met it with her own. Their kiss was like July's fire magick when left unchecked could burn them.
"July be a good girl." His eyes swam with visions of her, as she peeled her red lace shift away from her shoulders.
Suddenly she stopped with a sad look on her face. "Gabriel, help me." Her frown quickly turned into a beautifully wicked smile. Gabriel's hands quickly freed her of any and all clothing.
