Sara smiled softly as her head rested gently against the fur of the wolf with her hands entwined in his fur.

"I love you Fluffy, you're the best wolf ever. C-can we run away together," she said.

The wolf pricked up it's ears. Fluffy refused to deny the girl whatever she wanted on the other hand Adam was a king and had things to do. He could not run away.

He whined softly.

"You don't want to leave here," she sighed softly.

"I understand. I just wanted to go home to my family. I have realized how much I took my cell phone and wifi for granted. When I asked for a cell phone they told me the dungeons were off limits to me and they had no idea what a phone was. They are stuck too far back in the past-"

"I remember my phone is in the phone of my leggings. I just need to find my clothes that I wore when I came here and hope there is at least some signal," she said.

Fluffy barked in excitement, he hadn't seen the girl remotely excited before. If she wanted to go on a hunt for a device in her clothes she could go ahead with that. She was in desperate need of something to occupy her. She didn't know how to weave, knit, sew, waltz or sing. He wasn't entirely sure of how she busied herself otherwise but she had not died from boredom by then.

"I wonder if you're allowed here," she mused.

He knew he was, it was his castle, but she didn't know that. Anyone would recognize him and would bow and she would call him "Fluffy".

He turned around and laid on his paws.

"You want to stay?"

"Oh well, when I get back I hope I have my phone," she said giving him a kiss on his forehead before running off.

As soon as she left the room she realised she had no idea where to look for her clothes.

Suddenly she bumped into the last person she wanted to ever see, the King.

"Why are you out of your room?" He asked.

"It's none of your business," she muttered trying to walk past him.

"You are my business and therefore that makes whatever you're doing ny business."

"If I tell you what I'm doing will you leave me alone for another two weeks," she muttered believing she took the two weeks without him for granted.

"I don't believe so however do tell me."

"I'm looking for the clothes I arrived here in. There is a device called a cell phone in the pocket of the leggings and I want it," she said.

Almost immediately a maid ran over with her clothes folded and her phone on the top.

She held the clothes and the phone and put on the phone and saw there was only twenty percent battery left.

"Wait is there electricity here?" She asked hoping that the place had at least some electricity to charge her phone after all they could not have been that isolated from society.

"Do explain what electricity is."

"Nevermind. It's not like it will matter since you obviously don't have it to begin with. Now I guess it's just a matter of waiting for it to die," she muttered going back to her room.

"Fluffy!" She exclaimed noticing the large wolf suddenly being missing and Adam watched as her eyes surveyed the room for his wolf form and he decided to avert her focus.

"You were looking for something that will die? Why do you use it then?" He asked using his curiosity about her "phone" to shift her attention to him.

"No the battery uses electricity to charge the phone when it runs out of energy and "dies"," she giggled amused by his lack of understanding.

She took the phone and put it back on and he stared in curiosity at the bright screen.

"No signal!" She exclaimed outraged.

"You are a strange girl," he muttered.

"If I'm so strange then let me leave. You do nothing but insult me and I want to go back to my family. I have a life that I wish to return to," she said crossing her arms.

"That is not possible I'm afraid. You don't get a say in the matter, you are to stay here indefinitely," he said shaking his head.

"Then tell me why. Why do you want to keep me here when I don't want to stay?"

"You witnessed too much to be allowed to return to human society."

"All I know is you're not human, you can growl and I almost got killed by your butcher," she protested.

"The fact that you are here is enough reason for me to keep you," he said.

"How far away are we from human civilization?" She asked sitting on the bed.

"Far enough I guess. We have a barrier that deters humans from coming here," he said.

"Then how did I get here?"

"I have no idea but I know if I let you go you could bring people here," he said.

"I get that," she replied softly.

She was very curious as to how she got to a place that 'humans' were not supposed to be able to get to. She had never seen herself as special and as much as she wanted to believe that she was some sort of exception to the normal human she couldn't see any reason for her to fall into the category of exceptional.

Her mind combed through the incident. She couldn't remember anything strange, nothing strange despite the magnetic feeling that was like ropes and chains wrapping around her body and pulling her somewhere.

Her feet had been walking like they had a mind of their own towards a predetermined destination with a GPS guiding them.

She had no control over herself it was as if she was a puppet but despite that she failed to fight against the feeling.

She didn't believe what she had felt was real. It felt more like a dream to her than anything. Magic barriers and inhuman creatures were just as far from reality as that.

She had no proof the people around her were inhuman to begin with. She had just believed it but after the nonsensical talk of magic barriers she no longer believed that.

She wondered if the people simply believed they were more than human in some sort of way that they believed they were superior to normal society.

She was sure that was the case. She shook her head knowing she needed to escape from the insane people.

"Do stop ignoring me darling."

She looked up, broken from her mental monologue of thoughts to see the 'King' looking straight at her.

"Why do you always call me darling?"

"Why should I not? You are mine. My darling," he replied.

"I am not yours. I am not a possession in the same way that I am not an object," she said.

The king looked at the girl, his fated and beloved female. He could not understand her, she was not an object or a possession. She was his mate. She was his darling. She belonged to him and him alone. If she did not belong to him then which male did she belong to?

"You are mine, my darling," he said trying to make it clear to her.

"I'm not your darling. I do not love you, that word is used between loved ones, family, boyfriend-girlfriend relationships, marriages and so on. You do not fall into those categories for me. You kidnapped me and have held me hoatage. You don't get to call me darling because I do not love you," she said.

He stumbled back, his eyes wide as he watched his beloved, her face showing no sign of deceit in her words. She spoke them from her heart and it hurt him terribly. His beloved, his fated one, denied any love for him.

It wasn't supposed to be like that. She was supposed to be a good and obedient mate. She was supposed to be a lady and she was supposed to be submissive. He could understand there was a difference in their societies but he still struggled to keep it in mind. Most of all however she was supposed to love him as he loved her.

His heart felt broken, she could never get rid of him but it did nothing to ease what he felt. The fact that she did not want him made him hurt and angry.

He knew he brought it on himself by hurting her like he had but she told him that she did not love him and it ripped him apart. It made him feel betrayed.

He left the room after staring at her and saying nothing.
