Chapter 22: Cravings

The next morning, I woke up with a jolt as if I just had the most realistic nightmare. I widened my eyes unable to recognize my surroundings.

"Am I still dreaming?" I asked myself out loud. I quiet squeal left my mouth as I close and opened my eyes again in hopes that the previous days, should be a dream. No matter how many times I pinched my elbow, I didn't wake up. With a loud groan I fell back onto the comfy pillows and smacked my hands on my face, covering it as I try to assemble my thoughts.

I remembered falling on the bed exhausted, but not covering myself with this comfortable bed cloth.

I groan again as I try to push those thoughts aside and try to think of the situation at hand.

There was just no way in hell I was with the god of death. It was somewhat painful realizing that I was sent to him so I wouldn't cause any more harm to those around me.

I sighed, running through my hair grimacing at my own thoughts. My mind travelled to Madison. I was glad she wasn't she was taken away without my consent, I brought her here after all. But I was glad to hear she was well taken care of. I understood the situation at hand and a part of me wanted her to be safe. I would make sure Hades took me to her so I can see for myself she was safe before I would believe it and be at ease.

I slowly let my hands slide down from my face and stared at the canopy of the bed. The black transparent lace covering, made me feel imprisoned in a way. It obscured a clear view of the ceiling and I suddenly felt suffocated.

"You are awake." a cheerful voice came from the closed door.

"Well, yes" I tried to mimic her cheerful voice but I failed, woefully at it. My voice came out as a whisper instead.

"I'm coming in." The voice came again. I reserve the energy I would use to respond to her and instead, used it to sit up. I noticed the gloves still very much hugging my fingers. What I would do to have someone touch me or I touch them with my hands and not die, was indescribable.

I slowly slid myself off the bed, closing my eyes as my bare feet came into contact with the plush black carpet.

Martha walks in to the room pushing a sliver cart with silver platters, she bowed her head at me and smiled, "I brought you some food. Master Hades didn't know what you would like to eat so I took the liberty of picking out a few fruits."

I smiled at her in return. "You really didn't have to." I spoke as I walked towards the cart and looked down at it curiously.

"I also brought you some materials to help you with your before and after shower. Master Hades also said to provide you with a tooth brush, and these."

My attention suddenly left the cart filled with different fruits and I went to Martha, suddenly curious about what Hades had given her to give me.

I watched as she brought out a pair of gloves. They were white and too transparent for my tastes. It would fit my hand perfectly but I was sort of used to wearing the thick gloves. Those made me feel somewhat safer.

"I have gloves." I spoke out, politely refusing to have them.

"These aren't just any gloves. Once you wore them it would seem like you didn't at all. You would barely feel it ting your skin. It would look like a second skin, and most especially, you would be able to control your powers. Things would only disappear if you wanted them to, with this."

As soon as she finished explaining, I snatched them suddenly and then felt my mouth start to water. I sure as hell was thirsty for these new gloves.

If they had these back on earth, it would have solved half my problems.

I squealed when they worked exactly as Martha had informed. I rushed to hug Martha not able to contain how excited I was.

"Thank you so much, Martha."

I carefully took the bathroom necessities and one apple from the food cart, grinning even more when nothing vanished. I threw the apple mid air and caught it. I squealed in excitement before engraving my teeth in the apple. I moaned in delight when the juices danced on my taste buds. This has to be the sweetest apple there is.

Martha grinned, walking over to a door across from my bed and opened it. "Here is your bathroom, Aurora. Shall I prepare your bath while you have more of those apples?"

I nodded my head quickly, gorging down the fine fruits in my mouth like I hadn't eaten in days. "Yes please." I took a break from one apple and grabbed a fork lying on one of the plates, I stabbed one of the Red strawberries before chewing on it. I moaned at the glorious taste as red strawberries slid down my jaw and I wipe down away with the back of my hand. I had more fruits and they completely tasted fresh and mouth watering.

"All done." Martha came out from the bathroom, as she looked at me munching at the last piece of carrot. "Did you like your breakfast?" She questioned me.

"Yes," I said before licking my lips. "Those fruits were delicious! Thank you, Martha. I'll go take a bath now."

I slowly began to remove my clothes leaving just my panties and bra on, I have a hour glass shaped that I really admired. I slowly started to make my way to the bathroom but I stopped and I frowned in confusion when I realized she was following right behind.

"You aren't about to follow me in there while I take a shower? Are you?" I joked but when I didn't see her laugh but she rather had a confused expression. My eyes widened.

"You stay here…"

"But…? Master Hades insists on y…"

"Master Hades doesn't let people bathe him so why should I? It's embarrassing." I huffed, trying my best not to make Martha feel bad for just wanting to help.

"I assure you, Master Hades is taking his bath with enough Maids to aid him."

My eyes widen at the new information. So others can touch him, but I can't?

For some reason that hurt me and in that very moment, I wanted to become one of his maid more than anything.

"Take me to him." I spoke, maybe too soon because the door suddenly opens and Hades walked in with his Black Robes barely covering his body. The essential part of a man. I gulped suddenly feeling hungry again.
