Chapter 27
Weeks had passed since the funeral and everyone was trying to get back to normal. Jareth kept busy, and Sarah hardly saw him. He was always away from the castle or making rounds on the grounds around the castle with his guards, making sure the Labyrinth and the Goblin City was safe. They were currently in the dining room eating breakfast; everyone minus Jareth. Tiana looked over at Jareth’s chair that was empty and she frowned. then she looked over at Sarah, and she noticed she had her head down, her food was half gone and Sarah was pushing around the leftover food on her plate with her fork. “Sarah,” Tiana called. Sarah must not have heard her. Whatever she was thinking about, she was focused more on that than what was going on around her. Tiana called Sarah’s name again. This time Sarah lifted her head up to look at Tiana. Tiana noticed that Sarah had been crying and the dark circles under her eyes showed that she had not been sleeping well, if at all. “Are you okay?” Tiana asked her sadly. Sarah forced a smile and replied, “Yeah, I’m fine.” Tiana looked over at her daughter Olivia, who was more into eating, and what was going on around her. Near the end of breakfast is when Jareth decided to walk in, looking very regal. Tiana noticed how Sarah perked up from seeing him, so she figured it must have been awhile since Sarah saw Jareth. Jareth didn’t look at Sarah or show any emotion towards her, which made Sarah frown and look down. Tiana watched this and gave her brother an angry look. Jareth looked at his sister confused and wondered why she was giving him a mean look. He went back to his breakfast, and when he finished he wiped his mouth with his napkin and spoke. “Until all the security measures are taken care of, no one is to leave this castle without a guard,” Jareth told them. “Yes Jareth” Tiana and Olivia said. Sarah didn’t say anything. Jareth looked at her and said in regal voice, “Is that clear, Sarah?” Sarah looked up at him and said through her teeth, “Crystal.” Jareth nodded and said, “Good, I have business to tend to,” and he left the room. “Sarah,” Tiana said. Sarah didn’t say anything she stood up, threw her napkin on the table and said, “I’m going to go take a nap.” When Sarah walked into her room, she noticed that Jareth was taking his clothes off. Sarah stood there watching him. “Taking a bath?” Sarah asked. “Yes” Jareth said plainly. After his clothes were off, he grabbed his robe and put it on. He turned away from her to go into the bathroom. Sarah quickly walked up to him grabbing his arm and turning him to face her. “Are you having an affair?” Jareth looked at her emotionless then asked, “What would make you ask me that?” Sarah tried to look him in the eye but she was too afraid to and replied “Well you’re never here and you don’t sleep in the same bed as me and you are avoiding me.” “I’m trying to make my kingdom safe for all of us,” he said as his voice slightly rose. She also noticed that he never answered the question; she looked up at him with tears in her eyes. Jareth sighed and said to her, “Just get some sleep and take care of that baby.” He rubbed her stomach, and then walked into the bathroom slamming the door behind him. Sarah stood staring at the closed door; she let the tears come out. She put her hands on her stomach; she couldn’t believe that he said that baby, not our baby, but that baby. She walked over to the bed and climbed in under the covers and cried herself to sleep. Awhile later Jareth came out of the bathroom with his bathrobe on. He looked at the bed and saw Sarah sleeping. He quickly got dressed, and then he walked over to the bed and looked down at Sarah. He saw tear tracks on her face and he knew she had been crying. He kissed her cheek then he whispered to her, “I am doing this for all of us.” Jareth walked out into the hall and closed the door behind him, he saw Tiana walking up to him. “What do you want?” Jareth asked. “I came to check on Sarah. She seemed upset,” Tiana told him. “She’s fine, she’s sleeping,” he told as he walked away from her. “Are you cheating on Sarah?” Tiana asked him. Jareth turned around and walked up to her and said. “Why does everyone ask me that?” “Who else asked you that?” “Sarah.” “And what did you say?” Tiana asked “I didn’t say anything” Jareth says. “And why not?” Tiana asks. “Because she should know, that I would never do that to her,” Jareth told her. Tiana smiled and shook her head. “Sarah probably knows you would never do that, but a girl just wants to believe that her man loves her and only her.” Jareth looked at her sadly, “I do love only her!” “Have you showed her lately?” Tiana said. “No, I guess not,” Jareth said. Tiana was ready to open her mouth again, but a voice stopped her. “Sire, are you ready?” Jareth and Tiana turned their heads and saw Mac standing there wearing armor. “Yes I am,” Jareth said and walked up to Mac. Tiana watched them both walk away, and then she went to her room. Jareth and Mac and an army of goblins walked into a dungeon, then all walked up to very tall muscular Fae man and he was watching two ugly creatures that were chained to the wall. “Are they talking yet?” Jareth asked the man. “They refuse sire, so I keep whipping them, but they seem to be immune to it.” he told Jareth. Jareth looked at the creatures, he couldn’t tell what breed they were, and they were all disfigured. They looked tall like a man, may be part gremlin, they had scales for skin, they had pointy ears, they had a snakes tongue and were a greenish/grayish color. Jareth walked up to them, the muscular man watched the creatures. Mac and his guards plus the goblins moved closer to Jareth to protect him if he needed it. “So you worked for my step-father as spies?” Both creatures looked at each other and the one on the right hissed through its teeth, “We will tell you nothing!” “Then you shall die a painful death,” Jareth told them. “You kill us, more will come, if not on the way already,” the one on the left hissed. “My step-father is dead, so why are you here?” “We were told if our master died to come here for revenge on all,” they both hissed. “Who commands you now?” Jareth asked. “Our mistress,” they hissed. “Who is that?” Jareth asked curiously. “You will find out soon,” they both hissed. Jareth got mad and looked at the muscular man and ordered, “Lorenzo, burn them alive.” “Yes sire,” Lorenzo said. The creatures started to hiss out of fear. Lorenzo poured gasoline over them then lit a match, they screamed as they burned alive. They all watched until the creatures turned to ash. Jareth looked at Lorenzo and said, “Let me know if anymore show up on the radar.” “Yes sire,” Lorenzo said. Jareth walked out of the dungeon, his army following him. They walked back to the castle, and then Jareth went into his bedchambers. He saw that Sarah was still sleeping, so he climbed into bed with her. In the early morning, Sarah felt pressure on her chest. She opened her eyes and looked down, she saw Jareth sleeping on her chest with his arms around her. She smiled, wrapped his arms around him, kissed the top of his head and fell back asleep.While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
