But despite Lucia flattery, she noticed Azrail's demeanor remained the same, it was no time for flattery but time to get serious."Second master, did I say something wrong?"Azrail shook his head, "No you didn't, I just suddenly feel uneasy and it troubles me." He answered honestly."What troubles do you have second master?" Lucia asked greatly concerned about Azrail's sudden change of mood. He might not have gotten his eyes but getting his position back should make him elated and not otherwise. "I'll do anything to help you resolve your worries.""Just now, it occured to me that Lord Adonis was out of character." Azrail said unsettled."How do you know that?" Lucia asked confused."Just because my sight was taken away from me does not mean I can't add things up." Azrail said raising the tone of his voice higher."Pardon me my Lord," Lucia went on her knees. "It was not my intention to infuriate you. Just now you mention first master was out of character, kindly explain it to me so I
Lord Adonis walked into his chambers angry, his countenance was like a burning fury that could burn anyone at the slightest touch. He saw Audrey was still in the exact position he had left her but this time with a cut on her forehead, it wasn't there when prior to the time he had left his chamber but seeing that she was still on the same spot he had left her, he knew the cut must've been from the quake that took place earlier.On noticing his presence, Audrey bowed her head to paid her homage. He walked pass her as though she was invincible and headed straight to his study room to have sometime to himself.Lord Adonis groan as he took his seat, he had barely settled down when his mind choose to wander freely to Audrey against his free will, he made a mental note to ignore her but he couldn't. "She sure have a knack of making people worry over her unnecessarily." He said to himself as he felt a great urge to take responsibility for what he had done but there was no way he was going to
Soon, it was time for light out and the girls lazily dragged their feet to lay their tired bodies to rest.Lucia offered to help Audrey to bed but Audrey had insisted on being alone so she let her be.Lucia went to number fourteen space to clear it out."What are you doing?" Number thirteen looked at Lucia suspiciously."And what do you think I'm doing?" Lucia asked without sparing her a glance or stop what she was doing. "Everyone is getting work up because of number fourteen, do you think it's advisable to leave her stuff like this considering the current situation of things?""I never knew you were this considerate but you sure think ahead." number thirteen said knowing fully well that there was more to Lucia's action and she wasn't just being kind. Number thirteen then decided that she wasn't just going to fold her hands, but she would take necessary and meticulous steps towards finding out Lucia's motives. "Number fourteen was my bunkmate, let me assist you in disposing her stuff
Number thirteen entered Lord Adonis chambers with her heart beating rapidly with her head bowed. She kept telling herself that she has done nothing and thus have no reason to be afraid."I hail the end of all beginning." She paid her respect in a shaky voice but got no response. "May be my voice was too low, l have to increase my tone." She said to herself. "I hail the end of all beginning." Number thirteen repeated in a louder voice yet the situation was the same as the first, there was no response.She raised her head to get acquainted with the new environment she had found herself and was stunned beyond words when she saw the most beautiful and luxurious bedroom she had seen all her life. She was expecting to see human skulls and a whole lot of vicious things littered everywhere but here she was in a room she wouldn't even dream of spending a night in for her entire life. "Is this for real?" She was finding it hard to believe that someone like Lord Adonis could keep his space tidy
Audrey's heart was racing very fast as she walked away from Lucia. She had just made up her mind to detach herself from everyone but looking at Lucia's actions, she wasn't sure she could just ignore her.Lucia made an attempt to run after Audrey but was stopped by number thirteen. "I did what you asked of me, now it's time for you to fulfill your part of the bargain."This was no time to exchange words with number thirteen. "I made a promise so you don't have to bother yourself about me fulfilling it because I will, so if that is understood by you, take your stinking hands off my body." Lucia shoved number thirteen hands away as she ran after Lucia.Lucia met Audrey at the main hall waiting."I don't seem to understand you anymore, you've been acting weird for sometime now. I was thinking it was due to the change of allocation but looking at things now, I think you have a problem with me."Audrey asked for the pen and paper to write her thoughts. "The one acting weird is you, you've c
If there was anything Lucia wished for at that moment, it was for her to completely vanish into the thin air. She could not fathom how Azrail could be so sweet to her this moment and the next, he was a beast."I'm only letting this slide because you still got your uses but I'll advice you don't push it any further." Azrail voice jolted her out of reverie. "I can't stand your presence, I want to take a walk.""I'm sorry second master" Lucia managed to say despite feeling completely betrayed by Azrail's action. Few moment ago, she was held up in his embrace and now, she had been physically violated but the physical torture was nothing compared to the emotional torture she was going through."Sorry don't fix everything, you should be grateful you're my personal maid, otherwise you would have seen the other side of me."Azrail made his exit and Lucia bursted into another fresh round of tears with no one to console her this time. She wished she had kept what was bothering her to herself.
Azrail had drove himself out in order to carry out the mission assigned to him by Lord Adonis. He had seen a group of people gathered listening to music, he wasn't a music fanatic but it's been a long day from him.He decided to join the crowd and relax his mind when he observed an abnormal breathing beside him. It was against his duties as an arch agent of death to care for a mere mortal but he had been searching for a human maid all day without success, he had given up on hitting his target for that day.But maybe there was hope after all, here was a young maiden totally broken looking like she would pass out the next moment. Knowing fully well that the human maids have to be willing to follow him, he was also willing to bend the rules that binds him to achieve his mission."What is wrong with you? Are you okay?" Azrail asked gently from where he was standing. He looked at her forehead, it wasn't her time.Despite Ceren situation, tears swelled up in her eyes, she felt seen in the
None of the two girls responded to number one question.'Whatever it is that is happening, I hope it continues so we can always get an ambience of sanity and peace when we gather here at the table." number one quickly added.But before number one could focus on her food, Lucia and Ceren raised their heads up and gave a bad look simultaneously."What was that for?" number one asked as she shrugged her shoulders."You really should know when to shut your mouth." Ceren said still looking at number one. "I can't agree less." Lucia seconded Ceren's opinion."Wow, just wow." number one just like the other girls were shocked to their bone marrows to see Lucia and Ceren agreed for the first time. "Who would've believed you both had a face off earlier? Anyways I'm sorry for interfering, I'll mind my business.""It will do you a whole lot of good if you do." Lucia said before turning to eat her food.Audrey's looked at Lucia's bruises and her heart broke into pieces but she was determined not
