783 To Survive
Gritting her teeth, Bella remained silent as she sat in front of Bulun. The man was staring lovingly at her, and it almost made her gag just imagining him having his way with her. [I have to get out of this,] Bella inwardly thought to herself. [There's no way that I'll even wait for Amon to get himself into a trap.]
[And while I wholeheartedly agree, how exactly are we going to do that?] Poona questioned. [We have no tools, and you can't shift your forms to even try and get out of this mess.]
Bella shook her head. As much as she wanted to say otherwise, her inner wolf was correct in her assessments. She knew she had the power to try and fight back, but the spell keeping her docile was still firmly in effect. Before anything else, this spell had to go. Otherwise, there was no way that she'd be able to escape on her own.
[I have to get rid of the spell first,] Bella concluded. [Anything else can follow.]
[That's one plan. How exactly are you going to do that?] Poona asked. [You can't exactly just ask Bulun to get rid of the spell for you.]
[But what if I can do exactly that?] she challenged. [The man's desperate enough to come and get me. Surely, a little bit of seduction would work on this idiot.]
Yes… As much as she would hate herself while doing so, seducing the man might just work to free herself from this predicament she was in. Sure, there was a chance that it wouldn't work, but it was at least better than just twiddling her thumbs and hoping that Amon could get past the trap these men set for him.
Taking in another deep breath, Bella psyched herself up for the most disgusting set of words she was about to utter. She was sure that she'd want to clean her mouth after everything, but for now, she should focus on getting away from this place.
"Hey, since I'm already here forever, why not get rid of the spell you cast on me?" Bella began, her tone taking on a more sultry tune as she talked to him. "You're sure that I have no means of escape, right?"
"While that's true, there might still be a world where you can fight your way out of here the moment you can move again," Bulun chuckled. "It's just common sense to keep you bound, after all. And besides, there's a certain appeal to taking someone that's utterly defenseless."
Bella fought against the shiver running down her spine as she came face to face with Bulun's blatant lust for her. Just the image of him taking advantage of her while she couldn't move was vomit-inducing. Nevertheless, she had to press on.
"But where's the fun in that?" she challenged right back with a seductive smile. "I know I wouldn't like my prey to just lay down and take it after all the effort that I've put into getting it."
"Hmm…. I suppose you're right in that regard. However, a prey that fights back can always get a lucky hit in," Bulun sagely remarked. "Why bother with the risks when I can just play things safe?"
"But where's the fun in that?" Bella smirked, her lilting tone clearly making Bulun hesitate from where he sat. "Wouldn't you like to know what I can do when I have full control over my body?"
For added emphasis, Bella did her best approximation of a seductive sway as she shimmied her hips from side to side. It wasn't much with her still being paralyzed, but it was clearly having an effect as she saw Bulun's eyes widening as he watched her.
"You really know how to get your point across," Bulun pondered. "That's one of the many things I like about you, Bella."
She then watched as he sat up to sit beside her yet again. His arm wrapping over her shoulder, he pulled her to his side as he seemingly relaxed into her shoulder.
"You know, I'm starting to think that you finally understand what's happening here," Bulun casually remarked. "Are you finally seeing exactly what I have to offer?"
"I think I can see some of them," Bella chuckled despite her disgust. "Still, it wouldn't hurt for you to spell it out for me."
For added emphasis, Bella seductively blinked her eyes at him. In truth, just looking at the man in the eyes told her that his lust for her was practically overflowing. In fact, she could even feel his hardness starting to poke into her side as he cozied up to her. It was horrible and disgusting, but she knew she had to bear with it. If she wanted to escape before Amon could get there, then she had to take things into her own hands like this.
"Well, if you insist, then allow me to start with the fact that I am an all-powerful warlock," Bulun began with proud gloat. "You'll never want for anything ever again, and I can even give you power beyond your wildest dreams."
"I see," Bella hummed. "Anything else?"
"I can give you pleasure beyond your wildest dreams," he further added. "You will never know anything else other than my presence, and I'll make sure that you'll feel so loved that you'll never want for anyone else again."
"Fair enough," she casually replied, her heart completely not into it as she humored him. "I think I see the appeal."
"Right?! There's no other place that's safer and more ideal for you than mine," Bulun gloated, his breath hitting her ear in a way that made her shiver in a bad way. "There's simply no contest! Not even Lord Devon will be able to hurt you so long as I'm around!"
Bella almost laughed at that nonsensical declaration. She didn't know what or why this man was this confident, but she was pretty sure that Amon alone was more than 15:55
man was this confident, but she was pretty sure that Amon alone was more than enough to crush him the moment he got his hands on his stupid head.
"And I have that guarantee?" she questioned as she felt the end getting closer. "That if I join your side, I'll forever be safe from him?"
"Of course!" Bulun declared with arrogant pride. "Nobody will be able to harm you. Not Amon. Not Lord Devon. Not even the Almighty himself will be able to touch you!"
Taking a gulp, she did her best to stop herself from gagging as she said her next words. "If… If you're sure, then fine. I'll join your side."
"Splendid!" Bella bit her tongue as she watched the man celebrate his supposed win. Oh how badly she wanted to just punch this man and bury him into the dirt. Unfortunately, she couldn't do that yet. At least for now.
"My Bella, let's celebrate this wonderful occasion with a kiss," Bulun suggested to her as he leaned over to try and kiss her.
"Wait! Can you at least get rid of the spell keeping me bound first?" she cooed, her eyes wide as she did her best to avoid his lips. "I'd like to wrap my arms around you while we do it."
"Oh!" he eagerly smiled. "Let me get rid of it then!" [Wait, that's it?] Poona laughed.
[It's as easy as it looked, huh,] Bella laughed with her inner wolf. [Still, it's not over yet.]
Sure enough, Bella held her breath as she watched Bulun begin to undo his spell over her. With a short chant, his power washed over her, and she immediately felt her body return to her in short order. And to even make sure, she tried wiggling her fingers to see if she could move, only to smile as her body moved to her will.
"There, you can move freely now," Bulun smiled at her. "Now, can we kiss?"
She blinked at him as she did her best to come up with the next thing she had to do to escape. With her movement returned to her, she could always just fight her way out, but there was no telling if Bulun would just get her back in his spell again. Although… Yes… There might be something that could get her out of this situation.
[Have something in mind?] Poona asked. [Don't tell me you'll just wing it.]
[Don't worry. I have something,] Bella replied with a scoff. [I just have to time it perfectly if I want it to work.]
In the back of her mind, she suddenly remembered a spell that Master Kasper taught her that could probably help her escape this man's grasp. She didn't know if it would work, but it was better than nothing if she wanted to get out of this mess and stop Amon from getting himself into a trap.
With a deep breath, she mentally chanted the spell in her head even as Bulun slowly leaned in to get a kiss from her. She only had one shot at this, so she better make it
