❤️ My Hostage (Part 4) ❤️
A low groan was heard from the dark cell which was the only place the candle light didn't reach.
"It was very hard for me at first because you hid him and also because you know he has the gift before I could capture you. And I must recommend you for doing a wonderful job in bringing Storm back to his father Phoenix, I wouldn't have thought in a million years that you would go back to lick your own vomit, which unfortunately you did, and I didn't know you brought storm back to the Palace," the cloaked figure said. "I know where he is now and getting him is not a problem to me." he added, leaving the part of where he couldn't get into the head of Storm like others. Well if things didn't go as planned, he is going to use Juno against Storm.
"Please, don't hurt Storm," a low dry voice said from within the cell, a dry cough was heard, "You have me now, you gave me your word that you won't hurt Storm."
"Of course I gave you my word Phoenix until I realized he has the gift and you hid him away from me."
"That's because I know you would look for him and kill him once you lock me up."
"If I know he was with his father or the Garden of Edenis I would have killed him easily. He was little then and wouldn't have the strength or power to block any of my attacks. Thanks to his half sister I got to know where he was but it was too late for me to do anything. It took me years for this body of mine to heal all because go you and Ariadne."
"We are sorry,"
"I forgot to give you the latest update, Ariadne is dead. He was killed by Dean, a trained and skilled warrior. Storm came back before Ariadne was buried and I will have to make sure he is buried alongside his father." the dark cloaked figure promised. Even though he doesn't know how he could do that yet, he chuckled when he heard the pleading of Phoenix. He likes putting fear into the heart of the woman who people think has died years ago. "I will see you soon Phoenix," he said and disappear into thin air.
Phoenix sobs and cough was heard within the dark cell.

The dark cloaked figure appeared close to the huge wall of Kudarma Kingdom and waited for her to come. He made sure his face was well covered. He doesn't want her to see his face, not yet. Soon he heard the sound of footsteps heading towards him.
"What kept you so long, Reca?" he asked, not turning his back to look at the person who stopped beside him.
"Unlike some people who could disappear and appear like they want, I don't have that. I walked," Reca said. "Have you killed him yet?"
"You think killing Storm is as easy as saying it? Be me just once in one day and I can assure you that you will run mad."
"When I went for my father's burial I met him there so I thought you would have killed him as you claim to be powerful."
"I will kill him, I am still studying him, okay?"
"Then leave Storm and kill the rest of my family members," Reca said. "I want my brother's to feel what I am going through. They ignore the signs and then force my hands and now there is no going back." she added with hatred in her voice.
"If you had used the same energy on your husband, I am sure he wouldn't be beating you everyday."
"Don't worry about him, when it's time I will deal with him. His death will be so slow and painful and I will be enjoying it as I inflict him with pain," Reca said. "Enough of that riffraff, when are you killing them?"
"Not before I kill Storm. He is my personal mission for now. Now tell me more about Storm. I need to know what I am about to deal with."
"I have told you all that I know about him. He didn't stay with us for long before father took him to the Garden of Edenis and he only returned after father died. I have told you this countless times," Reca said. "So if he has change then blame it on Edenis he lived until now." she added. "If that is all for now, I will take my leave, my child needs y attention." Reca, with the help of the moonlight, walked back to the wall.
The dark cloaked figure watched until Reca entered the wall before he disappeared.

The next morning, Storm entered his room and saw a wide awake Gwen.
"Where were you? You didn't sleep on your bed? Why?" Gwen threw her questions at him.
"You chase me out of my damn bed."
"Don't tell me I did that again?"
"Yes, you did."
"But Morgan didn't complain to me the next morning when he saw me on his bed."
"Maybe that's because you like him enough not to push him on his own bed," Storm said. "And speaking of him, he came to see you last night. Why didn't you go to his room?"
That surprised Gwen who didn't even try to hide it. "Morgan was here?"
"Yes Gwen, he came looking for you, with the way he was doing last night, he thought you were dead or something."
"I know you came up with that last line, Storm."
"Yeah, I did. He was here to ask why you didn't show up in his room, that's all."
"Why was he here?"
"Do I look like Morgan? You can ask him that yourself. I am going to take my bath, they will be bringing Juno and her friend for questioning." Storm heads straight to the bathroom in the room.
Morgan was here? To see her? Gwen couldn't believe her eyes.
"Well why didn't wake me up when he came?"
"Take that as a payback for pushing me out of my bed and making me sleep outside the roof."

Meeting Room:
One hour and some minutes later, Morgan, Fred, Empress Rose, Storm and Gwen with three of his Ninjas were inside the meeting room when the door to the meeting room was pushed open and Kira and Kando walked in as if they owned the place, their heads held high. Two guards were seen behind them, once their prisoner was inside the room, they immediately closed the door before them.
"Hello beautiful, I didn't see you last night. I waited all through the night in my cell battling with all the cold thinking you would come but you didn't show up," Kando said with a pout as he locked his gaze with Gwen. "Your sexy body against mine would have given me the warmth I crave for. I would have taken you to cloud nine when I am fuc.king you beautiful."
Gwen chuckled slightly. "You are so bold." that earned a deep grin from Kando's handsome face. She then turned slightly to look at Morgan and was satisfied with what she was seeing.
"I dare you to say that again." Morgan growls out.
"What part? Her sexy body or me calling her beautiful because really she is a beauty or is the part when I am fuc.king her, hard, fast, you know what I mean princeling."
"How dare you!" Morgan wasn't holding his voice anymore.
"And the deaf person thinks I am talking to him," Kando mocked but before Morgan could speak, Storm cleared his throat.
"That's enough, both of you," Storm said, trying hard not to smile. For some sick reason he enjoyed Morgan getting angry, staring at Morgan. "You behave like a child Morgan," he said and when Morgan opened his mouth to speak, Storm interrupted him. "He wasn't speaking to you."
Morgan snorted. Kando chuckled.
"Tell us why you are here?" Storm asked, shifting his gaze back to Juno.
"Well before I talk, I need a bath, we need a bath and food," Kira said. "We cannot talk on empty stomachs."
"Fine with me, we will arrange a bath for you and your-" storm began to say when he got interrupted by her.
"No, I want you to bathe me."
"And she has to bathe me too," Kando chips in as he points at Gwen.
Kira smiled when she saw Storm's angry gaze on her. "What," she said, flipping her hair backwards, "Do you want to beat me? Are you afraid that I might hurt you?"
Storm gritted his teeth.
"You are scared of me? An ordinary girl like me?" Kira said blinking her eyes.
"No one is bathing anyone." That was Morgan's angry voice.
"I am not moving an inch from here and I am not talking," Kira said as she and Storm stared into each other's eyes without breaking.
"Fine," Storm said with clenched teeth. "You want a bath from me, you will get one." he added and stood up, walking to meet her and grab hold of her hand and tug her along as he turn to leave the meeting room. "Gwen you will do as that smiling idiot says. Bath him before I return with the second idiot" he added without leaving room for any argument. His tone was serious and Gwen didn't argue.
He tried to move when Kira purposely fell to the ground dramatically, almost dragging Storm with her. Glaring at her, "What is it again? Should I clap for now?" he spat out in annoyance.
"I just realized my legs are hurting me, carry me."
