Chapter 2: LIVING WITH HIM PART 02
The servants helped her dressed up and she insisted to do it alone but they did otherwise. One of the maid had done her hair in a pony tail with a ribbon to held her long, blonde wavy hair that cascade down above her waist. She thanked them and was left alone in the room. She stared on the vast horizon beyond the window which stood tall. It's been three years since she saw such scenery, the warmth of the sun, the leaves sway with the wind, everything felt vivid to her like a blind woman who was able to see. She exited the room knowing that the man who saved her is waiting for her presence. To her surprise, a butler was standing beside the door who was patiently waiting for her, "Madame, please follow me" Selena answered with a nod and she followed. Series of huge floor to ceiling window ends around each corner of the red carpeted corridor. They made a turn and stopped in front of a huge door, the butler knocked and exclaimed, "Master, I brought her."
"Let her in" the velvety voice inside retorted. The aged butler pushed the door open and Selena walked inside when he gestured her to come in."You may leave now Taro" The butler answered with a yes and left, closing the huge door in the process. Selena advanced and sat on the chair opposite from Sebastian who look stunned, "What? You're going to invite me to sit anyway so I did" Sebastian shook his head sluggishly, not wanting to squabble with the woman. "I had the servants bring our breakfast here, that won't irk you will it?" Sebastian watched her shook her head, "I haven't introduce myself haven't I, I am-" Selena interrupt him and spoke, "Sebastian Michealist, the only heir of the Michealist, I had a little chat with one of your maids earlier." Sebastian felt vexed and his face scowl. Being interrupted without permission is what he abhor the most. "You look unruffled than I expected, here I thought you'll be crying in my arms" Sebastian looked apathetic. He brought up his right hand and rested his chin on it and studied her from head to toe. The dress suits her well.
"You're quite a delusional one aren't you." She softly chuckled on her words, Sebastian on the other hand felt insulted. "That's what a normal vampirette would do after being saved from such."Sebastian's eyes were fixed on Selena, "So what you're trying to convey is I'm weird or something?" Sebastian just shrug, being weird or not, he could care less but it irked him to watch people act tough when they knew they're about to break. " I didn't call you here to chitchat about rubbish things. You want to know about a lot of stuff right? That's what were going to talk about." Selena sighed in defeat, this vampire in front of her is a tough nut, "Well, your mission is a labyrinth to me so why don't we start with the outset of it shall we?" Sebastian didn't know why but he felt vexed, it was probably because he felt like being adjure.
As much as he despise explaining, Sebastian told her everything she needed to know, she listened attentively and Sebastian was thankful when she didn't try to interrupt him. She asked and answers were given.
The council knew that the death of the Levithian household that her aunt, Carol Mandrea, comprehend was nothing but a grotesque lie. Loopholes scatter around the place which even an idiot could notice. The mission was to annihilate the people who was responsible for the eradication of the Levithian household, but they needed to strike at the right time or they'll get in troubled. It was Jullious who told him to bring anything back he finds substantial, the reason why he brought her home.
Minutes later, their breakfast arrived and the table was laid with food and beverage. They ate in silence and finished their food, Sebastian had the table clean and the both of them were served with an alcohol mixed with blood. " Now that I told you what you wanted to know, it's your turn to indulge me with the answers I want." Selena stared at the glass of blood she had on her hand, "I see that you were perplexed with my actions, Sir. Sebastian" Selena looked at him with a jest smile plastered on her face, mocking him knowing that it riled the man in front of her."well, everything happened three years ago, vengeance is not needed either for the people who're responsible are dead. Yes, I was confined and I have to thole the cold night, lost my family, our house, everything, I have no where to go. To be frank, that night, I was prepared to die" Selena looked at Sebastian with her cheeks puffed "and then you came and now look, I will have my ass worked day and night to live, but" Selena's face sooth and smiled at Sebastian genuinely. "Thanks to you, I didn't die in an obnoxious way." Sebastian didn't know why he averted his eyes but he felt something new, he didn't know if it was something to be glad or to be agitated.
Sebastian watched her drink on his peripheral view and looked away a second after. This woman is something, other vampires fear him but this woman speaks boldly. Is it because he's a stranger to her? He didn't know, this vampirette is peculiar and she's different from any vampirette he encountered. The both of them finished their drink. Sebastian stood up and grab his coat on the coat stand, "Come, Jullious must have told the council about you by now, might show them the real thing." Selena laid the glass on the coffee table, stood up, and exited the room with Sebastian. "You and the Lord are very familiar with each other" Sebastian looked down at the woman beside him. Selana stood small beside Sebastian who's taller. "He took me in when my parents died" Selena hummed. Seeing how the conversation goes, she didn't talk any further.
Their carriage was was waiting for them at front. The coachman opened the door and Sebastian went in first and Selena followed who sat opposite from him. The journey was silent, no one dared to speak for they thought that it was unnecessary. The journey was about thirty minutes long before they arrived on their destination. Just to be cautious, Selena walked behind Sebastian as they entered, she didn't want people to ponder who she was to this young and irrefutable handsome man. On their way, they bump into people who were acquainted with Sebastian, as they natter, they couldn't help but to notice the beautiful lady who was accompanying the young Duke, but none of them dared to asked for they knew how bloodcurdling the Duke is, except for one, "And who might be this young and beautiful lady here. "the man in a grey suit step closer to Selena which made her comfortless. "My name is Won, Won Chelster, it's my pleasure to meet you.." Selena faked a smile hoping it didn't look that evident. The man waited for her to utter her name and to their surprise, Sebastian meddled and amiably pushed her behind him. "Sorry Mr. Won but the luscious look you're giving her is odious to look at." Sebastian gritted his teeth hoping to vanquish his pique. The man paled, Sebastian who's red eyes darkened as he glared at the man in front of him with loathe. The man looked down in shame, "ah, pardon me Duke Michealist." and the man left hastily. Selena lift her gaze at Sebastian who looked disgruntled, "Walk closer to me" he demanded which caught her off guard. "We don't want you getting molested before we could arrive in the boardroom." Selena kept her laugh to herself as she hold her self back from laughing out loud. This man is absurd, she don't get him at all, he was hard to read like a book with a seal, making her want to irked him even more.
