The Enchanting Witch// Magi•Sinbad

•chapter 5•

Steaming hot water enveloped my shaking body, doing its best to calm my frightened state, but failing. Sweat dripped from my face, both from the heat of the hot spring and the pain I felt.

I had awoken only minutes ago to a still pitch black sky, meaning I hadn't gotten much sleep at all, but thanks to that dream I was restless. No matter how much I tried to fall back asleep, every time I closed my eyes an image of those deathly eyes would appear, forcing me to pry open my own. Not to mention the pounding head ache that I had unfortunately spread throughout my body, causing it to shake and sweat, as if my body was subconsciously scared.

Never have I ever felt so on edge, but it confuses me since I don't even know what I'm on edge about. Maybe I was sick?

Snow fell from the pitch black sky, not a single star insight as the sound of flowing water filled my senses. The crisp cool air making me want to drown into the depths of the springs warmth. Sipping on the, most definitely expensive, bottle of sake I found in my room in hopes of replacing the uneasiness I felt with alcohol. The only thing I was missing was a beautiful wome- grabbing my head I pull at my hair as that dream girl pops into my head. That damn vixen won't leave my thoughts.

Slipping into the water entirely I try to rid myself of the cold chill running down my spin. But it doesn't help, instead in the darkness of my closed eyes I see her again with those cold eyes that could both freight and enchant almost any living man, maybe even dead. Though this time it was different, a michivous glint was held in her yellow orbs instead of painful tears with a slight smirk to match.

She looked, how can I put this? Alluring without even trying. My brain really created the perfect women, my brain is real extraordinary someti-

*cough* *cough* Raising above the water I gasp for air. "Holy fuck! I nearly just drowned in a bloody hot springs. Imagine them finding me floating butt naked in here, that would be a sight to see." Reaching for the bottle of sake I am met with a cold empty space of where it once was. "What the f-"

"Oh my, you must be very relaxed, I think you've had enough to drink for tonight. Lucky for you I'm here so it won't go to waste," that voice.....

Turning to face the opposite side of the pool I see her drinking my sake.

"Wow I must be really sick, I'm even starting to hear her too," groaning, I splash water onto my face and look back to see my hallucination of the woman was now gone.

"Over here crazy."

Jumping in shock and nearly drowning again I turn to my right to see the women a few feet away, leaning against the edge of the bath so she was only waist deep. Am I dreaming again? Or did I really drown before?

Seeming amused at my confusion she leans her head back and laughs, her chest rising and falling as she did. I didn't get a good look during that dream so my eyes linger a little to long.

"Oh? Did you not know that this was the ladies section. What a perverted king you are," lifting the bottle of sake to her dark berry lips she chugs it down, keeping her gaze on me, as if she was starring into my soul.

"You could've easily turned around and left here, since you were the first one to see me naked," detaching her lips from the now almost empty bottle she chuckles while shaking her head.

"Aha you caught me, I'm really the pervert here," poking out her tongue she goes to finish off the bottle but I rip it from her hands before she can.

"A pervert and a thief huh? You know if you wanted a peek or a sip you could've just asked. I'm in no position to reject you me lady," sending her a wink only to have her grit her teeth and growl at me.

"I doubt you'd reject any lady for that matter," rolling her eyes before removing her arm from the edge of the pool to send a splash to my face, allowing her to retrieve the bottle while my eyes were closed. In a blink of an eye the bottle is empty and shoved back into my chest.

"I'm just trying to look out for you. I wouldn't want you drowning on me now, would I?" There it is, that mischievous glint and soft smirk I imagined. I swear I've never seen her before this how is she real? What's going on? I'm feeling very suspicious all of a sudden.

"Oh wow, what a look," inching forward her eyes search my face, her breath the smell of sake and- wait is that? Actually now that I got a closer look I can easily see. "Hey, don't give me that look. You look dead, the eyes of a soulless man. But that can't be possible since you got so much of it."

"Are you high?" Head tilted as she leans back from my face and sinks into the springs.

"Why? You gonna lock me up? Ok, but I rather dislike the feeling of chains, I prefer rope, even though I can easily break out of both I'd be a good girl for you, my king," her king? She speaks to me as if we know each other. Do we? I watch her as she floats on her back, bloodshot eyes closed.

"I don't mean to offend you in anyway but have we met before? I feel as if I know you,"I didn't want to mention the dream since it might scare her away.

"No we haven't," frowning at the girl who hijacked my dreams she motioned me to float next to her.

Stepping towards her I look at her with hunger eyes, she really was the perfect wo- Splash

"Float," she snapped.

"I-I was," laying my back in the water I float next to her.

"Pft, liar," she splash's me again.

"Ok, fine but your eyes were closed how did y-"

"I could feel those seeing eyes of yours," seeing eyes? Why does that ring a bell?

If you didn't want to hurt me than you should've never looked at me with those disgusting seeing eyes of yours.

"You know, you have the same glint in your eyes as someone I once knew."

Pound
Pound
Pound

Fuck not again the pounding has stopped ever since she's showed up but now it's back.

"Really?"

"Yes, and I want to rip them out of your pretty little skull so bad it hurts."

"Wha-" I turn my head to face her but.... she's gone.

I know Merlin's eyes are more of a gold but sins eyes are gold sooooo gotta keep him diff I guess cause he one of a kind. Hope y'all likey <3
