7 I Will!

Rhett heaved a sigh. "It's a long story, I can't tell you everything unless you are willing to become my lover. If we established some kind of a relationship between us then it's okay to trust you and reveal to you my secret," he said thoughtfully.

Sabrina sighed and shut her eyes, she can't understand why would Rhett keep repeating that stupid issue. "Why do you keep insisting on that thing? Why it's the only thing you can think of? Why?"

Rhett sighed softly and asked, "Because what else can we do inside the cave? Create bad memories or create beautiful memories together? Just think about our situation for a few seconds. Look at us... we'll be imprisoned here for the rest of our lives. What are we going to do? What do you think will happen to a man and woman that are trapped inside the cage for the rest of their lives? Tell me..."

Sabrina swallowed the lump in her throat, she stared at him for a long time. She knows exactly what he meant with his statement.

If they will stay together inside the cave for many years, something is bound to happen. However, that is not her priority right now. Her goal is to find a way how to leave the cave.

She remembered that Rhett told her once that there is a way to leave the cave.

Rhett notice that Sabrina was quiet for a while. He already knows what she's thinking in her mind. He pulls a few of her locks. "What are you thinking, beauty?" he asked.

Sabrina looked at the wolf. "Tell me how can we leave this cave? I'm willing to cooperate with you. I'll do anything as long I can leave this place. Let's help each other!" she said.

Rhett smiled. "Really-? Are you willing to do anything?" he asked, his eyes boring into hers.

Sabrina nodded her head. "Yes! Spill the beans now! Let's do it! The sooner the better!" she said eagerly.

Rhett grinned. "Come here. I'll tell you how..." he said.

Sabrina moved her head closer to him. "Tell me now"

Rhett cleared his throat. "We can only get out of this cave if you will accept that we will become lovers... then we will make love all night long and make pups, I mean babies," Rhett said naughtily.

Sabrina sighed. She looked at Rhett and gave him a death stare. "You're hopeless!"

Rhett chuckled, a bright smile erupted from his face. "Hey, I'm just joking!" he said, chuckling. For some reason, he found the scowl on her face cute. This girl can produce a smile on his lips any time of the day.

Furious, Sabrina rose to her feet and left him.

She went back to the chamber.

Once she's already inside the chamber, she has nothing to do but lie on the bed and stare at the ceiling for a long time. Fresh tears shimmered in her eyes.

A few minutes later.

Rhett entered the chamber and looked at the beauty lying on the bed. He lies down beside her.

Sabrina moved away from him.

Rhett sighed and looked at her. "You're funny, beauty. You are trying to keep your distance away from me as if I have a contagious disease that you're trying to avoid. But tonight, you will seek my warmth to help you survive the night. How inconsiderate of you..." he said, tugging at her hair playfully.

Sabrina glared at him. She was about to give him some lashing but she remembered that he was right, tonight if the temperature in the cave will get cold again, she will need his warmth to survive the night.

She has no choice but to avoid upsetting him. Now that she's already inside the cave, she has to remember that without Rhett's guidance and support, she won't survive a long time in the cave. But she still can't get over her anger that he tricked her into entering the cave.

If only she didn't listen to him...

If only...

All she had now was regrets in her heart.

She can't hate him to the core because she's heavily depending on him for protection inside the cave. Besides, he told her that there is a way to get out of the cave alive!

Now, the only thing she needs to do is keep pressing him for the info so that he will reveal it to her. Maybe one day, he will get tired of her constant pestering and he will finally tell her everything.

Hours went by.

It was late afternoon, around 5:00.

Sabrina and Rhett went to the entrance of the cave, waiting for Grandma Azere.

A few minutes later.

Grandma Azere was already approaching the cave. She was carrying the bag in her hands with Sabrina's clothing inside. She went to the cave and put the bag on top of the rock just a few inches away from the entrance of the cave.

Sabrina smiled brightly. "Grandma! How are you? How's your legs?" she asked.

"I'm fine... I bring your clothes," Grandma Azere replied and walked away.

Sabrina was happy because Grandma already replied to her, which means, her anger towards her is fading away.

Rhett grabbed the bag and handed it to Sabrina. "Beauty, here's your things," he said.

Sabrina looked at her stuff. "I will bring them to the chamber," she said and walked away from the entrance of the cave.

Rhett stayed where he is.

A few minutes later.

Grandma Azere returned with the basket of food and placed it on the flat surface of the rock. Then she glanced at the entrance of the cave.

"Thank you for the food, Grandma! Are you looking for Sabrina?" Rhett asked.

Grandma Azere shook her head, she took a deep breath and said, "Take care of Sabrina for me."

"I will. You don't have to worry about her, I'm going to take care of her for the rest of our lives," Rhett declared.

"Good!" Grandma Azere spoke. She was satisfied with his reply and she likes the sincerity glowing in his eyes. Done with her task, she left the cave, going back to the hut.

Rhett watched the old woman walked away, going back in the direction of the hut. Holding the basket in his right hand, he went back to the chamber.

When he reached the chamber, Sabrina was folding her clothes and arranging them in the bags.

She looked at the basket that he's holding in his right hand. "Did Grandma return?" she asked.

"Yeah... but she didn't stay long, she went home right away after delivering the basket," he replied.

"Did she ask for me?"

"No..."

Sabrina bit her lip in sadness and continue arranging her clothes in the bag.

Hours went by.

Nighttime comes.

After eating dinner, Rhett and Sabrina stayed in the mouth of the cave, looking wistfully outside, longing to leave the cave that become their cage.

A full moon was in display tonight, the stars are shining brightly in the sky.

Rhett stared at Sabrina intensely. He can't stop staring at her beautiful face.

Sabrina noticed the way he looked at her. "Why are you staring at me like that?" she asked.

"What's wrong with the way I look at you?" he asked and chuckled.

Sabrina rose to her feet and walked away, going back to the chamber.

Rhett stayed at the entrance of the cave, sitting on the ground, looking at the full moon above, grinning like an idiot. Tonight he will be able to taste heaven again with Sabrina's alluring soft body pressed next to his.

Excitement rushed through his veins. He rose to his feet, heading to the chamber.
