Chapter 12) Gifts…
The bag of items was why he had left her in the first place.
After having told her why he had taken her and watching her reaction. Erik had decided that she might feel more at home if she had some of her more personal items.
So carrying the bag Erik entered the bedroom.
Alexandra looked up at him from where she sat huddled against the headboard.
She had heard parts of what he had said to the man that had frightened her. But she had not understood the meaning of their words. And she feared if she asked he would be angered again. Or think that she in some way had invited the man to come to her. So she remained silent.
Erik dropped the bag on the bed and reached towards her ignoring the fear he saw in her eyes.
Briefly caressing her tearstained cheek he slid his fingertips to her collar. Detaching it from the chain he freed her.
Stepping back he pointed to the bag and said, “Open it.”
Scrambling to obey, her fingers shook as she fought to untie the cord holding the bag closed. But once getting it open she froze as she saw what it contained. She could not believe her eyes.
Reaching into the bag with both hands she brought forth her ballet slippers and a small stuffed bear she had had since she was a little girl.
As she clutched the items to her chest she looked up at Erik and whispered, “I…I… Thank you. I thought I would never see these things again. But how...?”
Smiling down at her he answered, “I ‘am’ the Phantom remember. There is nothing in this opera house that is beyond my reach.”
Setting himself on the side of the bed he watched as she carefully removed each item from the bag and laid it before herself. Then once the bag was emptied she turned to him with her eyes sparkling with unshed tears.
“I believe a show gratitude is in order.” He said as he reached for her.
Alexandra nodded her head as she looked back at the items he had brought her. Along with her slippers and teddy bear he had brought her, her hair brush and combs along with her collection of ribbons. Also laying there were her books and journal and a small jewelry box that contained her grandmother’s pearls. But her most prized possession of all was a fan that her father had given her mother on their wedding day.
There were other scattered trinkets like clip-on earrings and cheap rings and bracelets also.
Pulling her to his chest Erik caught her face in his hand and turned it to his capturing her lips and kissing her deeply.
He released her only when it became necessary to breath and once regaining his breathe he said, “Tell me about these items and why they are so special too you.”
Alexandra bit her lip and reached for her teddy bear. Holding it up she said, “My Daddy gave me this when I was four and told me that it would always watch over me.”
Erik chuckled as he took the bear from her grasp and whispered in a husky voice, “You have me to watch over you now.”
Staring at her teddy bear Alexandra feared that he would damage it and without thinking she tried grab it back from him.
Keeping it just out of her reach Erik laughed and watched as her naked breasts bounced and jiggled with each of her movements.
Then a truly devilish thought filled his mind and he said, “If you want this back you will have earn it.”
Her eyes snapped to his as she lowered her hands.
“Wha…what must I do?” Alexandra asked quietly as her heart sank. And she began to wonder if she would have to earn all of her precious items.
Erik smiled and said. “Tell me something Alexandra. Which of these items is the most precious to you?”
Biting her lip Alexandra looked at her stuff and wondered if she should tell him the truth.
But he had already warned her about lying. So taking a deep breath she pointed to the fan and said, “This one.”
Erik reached past her and plucked the fan up and asked her why it was so precious to her.
She watched nervously as he released the catch and snapped the fan open examining it. Then finding her voice she told him about how it had been a wedding gift from her father to her mother. And that her mother had given it to her before she had come to the opera house.
Snapping the fan shut Erik laid it down and picked up the jewelry box.
Opening the lid he lifted the strand of pearls and let them run across his fingers.
Then looking at Alexandra he sat the jewelry-box aside.
“Lean forward.” He said in husky voice.
Leaning forward Alexandra was surprised when he took the collar from around her neck and replaced it with the pearls.
Then taking a hold of her shoulders he pushed her back and reached for the small stack of ribbons.
Selecting a red ribbon Erik ordered her to hold out her wrists.
Her arms trembled as she held them out and watched as he bound her wrists together with the silken ribbon.
Once finished he told her to lie down on her stomach as he gathered the rest of the items back into the bag. Then tossing it onto the chair he turned and looked at her damaged back.
Gathering her hair together and binding it with a pink ribbon Erik laid it so it rested on the pillow beside her head.
Then running his hands down her legs he bound her ankles with a black ribbon.
Alexandra lay fearfully wondering if he was going to hurt her again and a tear slipped from the corner of her eye.
She wanted to plead with him and tell him that she was sorry and that she would never disobey him again. But she knew in her heart that pleading with him would do no good. And that if he wished to beat her again. Then she would just have to accept her fate.
Leaving her on the bed Erik entered the bathroom and retrieved a jar of salve. But as he turned to reenter the bedroom he caught his reflection in the mirror. Approaching it Erik took off his mask and looked at himself.
Taking a hold of the counter he lowered his head and thought ‘I should release her. I can watch her from the shadows and always know that she is safe. And she would never have to look upon my mangled flesh again. But No! I need her. I cannot picture myself waking another morning without her flesh next to mine.’
Lifting his head Erik replaced his mask and grabbed the jar of salve and returned to her.
As he opened the jar he leaned over her and whispered, “I can never let you go Alexandra.”
She nodded her head and answered quietly, “I am sorry I did not listen when you told me to stay Master.”
As Erik applied the salve to her back Alexandra clinched her fists and tried not to pull away from him. But when his fingers touched a spot where the strap had cut her skin she cried out and tried to move away from his touch. Then immediately realizing what she had done she began to beg his forgiveness saying, “Please…I did not mean…I know I deserve to suffer for my disobedience. I…I…”
“Hush Alexandra, I promise you that even though the salve burns at first it will take your pain away.” Erik said in a soothing voice as he quickly finished covering her wounds with the salve.
As the salve took the pain from her back Alexandra felt the bed shift and turned her head to see that Erik had stood.
