Chapter 42 She has command of everything
" Orion, please stop, I beg you," she begged in a defenseless state.
"I have dreamed of this day .......," Orion let out while pushing himself harder.
"Please, for my sake, please.....," she cried out loud.
Suddenly, the troops tried to enter, but Orion pulled his hand and transferred his energy into the door; the door became powerful and hefty, and they were not able to push it.
And that gave Ezra a chance to push him and get him down, he took his sword and pushed it towards his stomach, and Orion held it with his whole strength.
" That's not possible, who are you?" Ezra asked appallingly.
" Your and your kingdom's death," Orion let out with rage, and Ezra pulled himself harder, getting near his stomach.
" Ezra..... Stop," he heard her say, and suddenly stopped pushing himself.
He turned his face towards Esperanza and Orion thrust him back and fell back.
Orion was about to get his sword, but Esperanza grabbed it in time and pointed it at Orion.
He smirked to see her being daring.
"Do not move forward," she said and he let out a chuckle.
"You cannot do this, Esperanza, give it back to me," He said, and she moved her head no.
"I said Move back," she let it out again, and Ezra got near her.
"Esperanza, get away from him," Ezra stands near her side.
"They will kill you, get away now," Esperanza said.
"Not without you, and without his corpse," He said and turned his eyes on Ezra.
" Not this far, let me first teach you a lesson," Ezra snarled back.
"No one is getting along with anything," she growled and they both got attentive.
"You are pointing this out to me because of him. Are you in love with him?" Orion asked and Esperanza swirled her eyes.
"No, but coming to know that not in love with you," she replied and he got still in his place.
"Get out of here," she screamed, and Orion stepped back.
He looked back but the whole place was now crowded with troops.
Esperanza throws his sword towards him and Ezra stands in front of her to protect her.
She saw his hand was bleeding dreadfully.
Orion looked out and found the crowd of troops.
"Ezra, please." She turned her pleading eyes towards him.
She wanted him to stand and command his troops to leave.
" Please, let him go," Esperanza pleaded.
"Yes, with her," Orion let out.
"Not with you, only one condition do you understand me?" Ezra coldly asked.
Esperanza was understanding but Orion pulled his sword out again.
" I am not going anywhere with anyone," she let out and Orion got stuck in his place.
"Stop them, please," she pleaded.
" You do not need to plead," he answered with satisfaction in his eyes.
" Are you out of your mind? Are you really going to be here with this murderer?" Orion growled.
"Stop it, stop it now," she wide-opened her eyes on Orion, and he felt the rage energy he had never felt before.
"I told you to stop," she commanded, and Orion's body went limp.
He did not know what was happening to him, but his mind was inclined to follow her command.
"What has happened to me?" He was shocked and searching around.
" What have you done to me?" He asked Esperanza.
" Ezra, please," she let out, and Ezra nodded.
He got out and commanded.
"What's happening here," he got out on the balcony.
"My King, there is an intruder inside your room," one of his troops let out.
"Are you out of your mind? There is no one. Go do your work," Ezra said, and the troops were flabbergasted.
Orion was glaring at Esperanza and was not able to do anything.
"I am under a spell," he let out.
" You should be," she replied.
"Everyone! Leave," he said, and Orion took his energy back from the door; the troops left, and the aisle was cleared out.
" Everything is cleared now," He said and Esperanza nodded, then turned her eyes on Orion.
"Orion, you need to leave now, I command you," she said as she had command of everything, and he smirked.
"You command?" He chuckled out and suddenly his mind was pushing him to do what she said.
"What are you doing to me?" He asked with a glare.
"What are you?" He asked with a suspicious look.
" I... I am.....," She continued to tell him but that instant Ezra stopped her.
"No...., Esperanza, back off! " he let out, and she stopped.
Orion's steps were taking him as their own.
Orion was startled as well as Ezra.
He left, and Ezra cuddled Esperanza, who was weeping in extreme dismay.
"I am so sorry," she said, taking his hand into hers, and Ezra took her into his arms. He took her to the bed and made her lie.
His blood was flooding, and her hand was drenched with his blood.
"This hurt, this hurt so bad," she was crying so pitifully.
And her tears were making Ezra uncomfortable.
" Hey, look at me," he made him look her into his eyes.
"Do not cry, everything is alright, I will be alright," he said, and she placed her hand in his, trying so hard to heal him.
" Why.... Why it's not healing, why it's not working," she was pressing her hand on his hand.
" That's not working," she takes the strand on her dress and rips it off. She covered the wound with a bandage so the bleeding could stop.
Ezra was closing admiring everything she was doing for him.
" It's not that bad, Esperanza," he tried to make her calm but she was trying to get out of his grip to call for help.
"Esperanza..... Esperanza calm down," he said and caressed her shoulders.
"How could I be?" She stared into his eyes and the moment stopped.
"Look, you secured it," he said, and Esperanza turned her eyes on his wound.
"I am so sorry, I do not want you to spill all these tears, I cannot see you crying," he said and she nodded, and then pushed a cuddle.
That was the soothing cuddle Ezra was aiming for.
" It's too bad, I do not want this to happen," she said and cried more.
"Nothing has happened, are you okay?" he asked.
"No, I am not," she replied.
He broke the cuddle and looked profoundly into her eyes.
" Hey, what should I do to make you calm?" He asked and caressed her cheek with his other hand.
The time stopped around them, the closeness was unbearable.
"I would not be asking you anything if you let me," he said with a smile. She tried to push herself back.
He grabbed her closer to him, and now her face was just in front of his, her eyes were into his eyes, and his lips were just an inch away from hers.
He was breathing her air and could feel her nervousness dispersing on his face.
"I am not going to hurt you," he said and she nodded.
She closed her eyes, and that was the sign; she slowly moved his lips and placed them on hers.
Her body became startled and she was not able to think at that time.
That kiss was not the forced one and had an extremely gentle effect on her mind and body.
He kissed her so softly that her soul forgot everything she was experiencing. She got down and let him do whatever he wanted, and he spread his lips all over her lips.
" I am not going to do anything else," he whispered into her lips after predicting her heartbeat that was getting out of control, then again placed his lips on hers.
