The Alien King's Alluring Obsession

Edna

I left the room at my fastest speed. I retraced my steps and went back to the living room.

There was no specialized dining area so we had to make do with the chairsand table available in the living room. Michael had already set the table.

I was really grateful for his help. I don't know what I would have eaten or where I would have slept if he didn't come up to me.

I added his good deed to my mental book. If it was possible, I would repay him in a ten thousand folds when we meet again.

"Dig in." Michael said.

I didn't wait for another hint. I rushed the food like I hadn't eaten for years.

The warm food wandered around my mouth before slipping into my stomach.

Some of the warmth from the food seemed to seep into my stomach. I felt warm from the inside to the outside. My lips curved upwards unconsciously.

I dropped my empty plate and utensils. My eyes turned to Michael. He was still eating. "Thank you so much, Michael. I will definitely repay you in the future." I said.

He waved his hand in a dismissive gesture, "You don't have to thank me over and over again. I have already explained my mentality to you earlier. One good turn deserves another."

My eyes started getting heavy. I don't know if it was because I was completely satisfied at this moment or if it was due to something else.

My whole body was so comfortable. The bed in the room Michael led me to started appearing in my mind with a seductive aura surrounding it.

I would do anything to sink myself into that bed.

A yawn slipped out of my lips as I stretched.

My hands grabbed my plate, "Where should I put this?"

"Don't worry about the plates." Michael replied, "I will take care of everything. You are a guest so act like it."

"Thank you again. I am going back to the room." I announced.

Michael nodded and I rose to my feet.

I left the living room and went back to my assigned bedroom.

The moment I locked the door, I collapsed on the bed.

The heavy feeling in my eyelids was increasing by the second. I couldn't keep my eyes open anymore.

I closed my eyes and my consciousness sank into the dark.

My sleep didn't feel as comfortable as I had expected it to be though.

I was going in between two states. One of those state was being in the embrace of deep sleep. I was out cold.

The other ome was an half conscious state. In this half conscious state, hands wrapped around my body.

The hands seem to be lifting me and transporting me somewhere. I don't know if the touch I felt was just due to a realistic dream or if it came from the real world.

I wanted to think about this phenomena more. Unfortunately, my brain couldn't focus on one single thought.

I was just going with the flow.

My limbs felt like it had been injected with a paralyzing medicine. Even when my brain sent signals to move to my limbs, my body wasn't heeding the instructions.

My consciousness kept playing around in the darkness behind my eyelids for a very long time. I couldn't really quantify the time I spent in that strange dark space.

There was no other choice but to bid my time.

Finally, the paralysis in my limbs faded away slowly.

I could remember the texture of the bed I had collapsed into in Michael's house. Michael was clearly a person that was just getting by and the furniture in his house reflected that.

The mattress wasn't very soft and it had some kind of unique texture. That texture was unforgettable.

Now, I wasn't feeling the texture that accompanied me to my sleep. My eyes flew open immediately.

I wasn't in the room I slept in anymore. The bed was nowhere to be found.

Everything was a little bit dark but I could still see.

I was in an uncomfortable position. Although I had a disturbing sleep, I didn't feel any fatigue.

I observed my current situation carefully. My hands and feet were tied in dead knots. There was no way I would be able to get myself out of the ropes tying me up in a very short time. Even with ample time, getting free was going to take a while.

All the incidents of the past few hours rushed back into my mind.

My mouth twitched. I don't know if I should lament my fate or laugh out loud. I didn't really trust Michael completely. Still, he seemed like a good guy. It was very strange to see him knocking me out and bringing me here.

The hands I felt in my half conscious state was real.

I don't think I have something that would warrant this strange behavior in my possession. I was practically eating his food and sleeping in this house because I have no other choice.

Why would he kidnap me?

There was a lovely scent in the air. It was the scent of the ocean. The air was moist.

My clothes were a little wet. Chill was transported to my skin as the air moved.

As I breathed, my throat felt like it was getting cleared, bit by bit.

I don't know why I kept falling into the hands of people that just wanted to harm me. It was getting very tiring to keep up. Right now, a stable and boring life was looking like a tempting offer.

Someone approached me confidently. I lifted my head.

It was.my fake benefactor, Michael. My eyes darkened rapidly. Fortunately, he didn't gag my mouth.

"Michael, why did you tie me up and do all these? I don't have any valuables and there is no relative that would pay you any ransom." I said.

Michael shook his head slowly, "There is no ransom that can convince me to let you go. Besides, you don't have to repeat what I know. It is very clear that you are a lone wolf with no backing."

"Why did you do this? You haven't answered my question yet." I demanded. My mind went straight to what happened a few hours earlier.

Joseph came to demand his money from Michael then. I should have taken that as the hint to leave. Unfortunately, I ignored the red flags and pushed on because of hunger. "You are a very important commodity. That is why I did this. Are you satisfied with my explanation?" Michael whispered.

His face didn't look as kind and approachable as it had been when he walked up to me a few hours ago.

The kind and honest face seems to have an element of evil intertwined with it.

The way Michael addressed me made my warning bells ring.

Commodity?

I hated that word.

Tekita and Maol treated the humans that landed on this planet as commodity.

Jelena sold me to a brothel like cheap goods.

Hearing this word evoked bad memories. A sneaking suspicion of what Michael wasnoveldrama

getting at rushed to the forefront of my mind.
