Chapter 3: Back to the Underground

Hoggle stood and placed his hand on her. She was shaking, that much he knew. As much as he would like to stop her from coming back there, leaving her here with her current condition is much worse. Maybe when she’s back there, he could spend her last days with him.

She grabbed her bag, stuffing her envelope inside and all her medications (she bought enough to last her for a year) while Hoggle grabbed her suitcase. “Are you ready?”

“Yes Hoggle”

Hoggle concentrated with all his might; sure it was easy when he could go to Underground and back to Sarah because she called upon him. But now that he had to go back with her and all her stuff, all of the magic he could muster inside of him could be exhausted from the trip.

Sarah closed her eyes and felt a tingling sensation course through her veins. Without knowing what she should do, she mentally wished‘I wish to help Hoggle in transporting me back to the Underground’ over and over in her head. It seems to work since she felt that they were now standing on solid ground and the air smells crisp and heavy with spices. Opening her eyes, she found herself in the middle of the throne room looking straight ahead at the Goblin King.
Usual clatter and chaos were halted when a dwarf and a human materialized in the middle of the throne room. The goblins stopped chasing the chickens, some stopped in drinking their alcohol while others stopped mid sentence in telling their jokes. All of them focused on the party that arrived. Just like any other day, Jareth sat on his throne room not minding the noise his goblins make. He requested to postpone his usual kingly duties that day since he was too exhausted to think because of last night’s events.

Since Sarah left and broke his heart, the cold king became more ruthless. He did not neglect his duties as sovereign and guardian of the Labyrinth but he ruled with a much more tight iron fist than before. His subjects are much more afraid of him, banishment or a dip in the bog of stench is much more preferable than his punishments today. Jareth would always attend to his duties then he would close himself into his library, he would still organize lavish balls and parties where a lot of Fae people would attend.

However it seems that the king has thrown his life away, after each party he would be seen to have either one or two girls on his arms and is making their way to one of the bedrooms in the castle. Almost everybody knew that the king is very popular with the ladies. Since he got his heart broken, he sleeps with a different woman every night and banishes them when it’s over. In spite of this treatment, several women still vie for the king’s attention due to his sexual prowess and capabilities.

The mighty Goblin king, next in line to be the ruler of the whole Underground was turned down by a simple mortal girl. For the first time that he opened his heart and considered someone “worthy” of him in over a hundred years ended up in failure. Therefore he decided that love does not exist. Love is just a word used to cover up several motives or intentions like lust, want of wealth or crave for power. He knew that the women who compete for his attention every night either just wants to bed him or have a shot in the chance that they might be the future queen of the Underground.

He remembered last night’s events where two women were tangled in the sheets; he didn’t even remember their names. Pleasure is something that is always craved for by the Fae. It is in their nature to be insatiable therefore it is natural for them to be engaged in several sexual acts. However it is also in their culture and nature that once they marry they are bound to monogamy for the rest of their lives. He remembered that six years ago he would gladly give up this lifestyle, committing himself to one woman and restricting himself from others who could give him different kinds of sensual pleasure. I was a fool back then, but no more. I will never be weak again! he thought.

His thoughts were halted when he felt that there were some beings making their way to his castle. It was then that his dwarf gardener materialized with the girl who bested him six years ago.

Confusion, shock and rage coursed through his veins. What the hell is she doing here? Isn’t she the one who cut off all of our connections once she declared that I have no power over her? Masking the myriad of emotions that crossed his face, he sat up straight and voiced over his inquiry. “What are you doing here Sarah?”

Seeing him after six years, Sarah felt this overwhelming emotion within her that seemed to be awakened by his presence. She couldn’t take looking directly into his eyes, she bowed her head and said “I – I wished to be here, if only for a while..”Hoggle looked up as she said the words for a while. He felt that Sarah does not want anybody to know about her condition except him.

“A while? What do you think of my castle you selfish girl, a vacation spot?!!!” shouted Jareth. How dare she! First she rejects my offer, my life and now she treats my territory as a place to relax? Sensing their king’s anger, the goblins scurried away from the throne room leaving the three.

“It’s not that!” she reacted. “I mean, its not supposed to be that way.. I just wanted to be here—“

“Your majesty?” Hoggle interjected not letting Sarah finish her explanation. He felt that he had to do advanced damage control if he didn’t propose his idea.

Focusing his glare to the dwarf beside her, Jareth calmed his breathing and said “What is it then??”

Hoggle took a deep breath, hoping the king would agree with this. “I would like to say that Sarah is welcome to stay with me during her stay here your majesty..”

Jareth paused for a minute. He thought of his revenge on Sarah and maybe this is the best opportunity for its execution. Reaching his decision he said “No Hogwart. The girl stays with me.”

“B-but your highness!”

“Shut it you fool! Since Sarah would like to stay here in the Underground, she has to pay for her stay here.” Focusing his gaze to Sarah, he added “By staying here in my territory you are subject to all the rules and regulations set upon by me. You would stay here and pay for your lodgings by being a slave. My slave.”

Sarah felt her heart constrict. She loved him but now he only thought of her as a slave. Feeling that there would be no other options, she agreed. At least she got to stay here and be by his side during the last two years of her life. She wanted to ask Jareth, if by staying here in the Underground would make the spread of her illness stop. If her two years to live would be extended up to three or four, but she knew she couldn’t tell Jareth about it. Being his slave would provide her the opportunity to care for him, a way to show that she loves him. At least she could say that she got to experience it before she would die.

Jareth was a little bit disappointed how easily Sarah accepted his decision. No tantrums, no citing of ‘It’s not fair!’. He looked deep into her eyes and saw that it lost the spark of her determination. The same spark that intrigued him six years ago. He knew that there is something else that she’s not saying to him. Knowing Sarah, she wouldn’t go back here and face him to be his slave under normal circumstances. Something was definitely up. He clapped his hand and a goblin scurried towards his throne. “Escort the lady to the bedroom on the East wing.”
