“But, before that, where am I anyways?
And who took me here?” I kept looking around, to see where exactly I am.
“You’re at the hospital, silly. I
don’t know who took here, but I saw a guy wearing a black suit, his hair is
brown and wavy lying on his neck, he’s also tall but he looked really
suspicious.” She frowned trying to remember who he was. I covered my eyes with
my arm and sighed loudly, imagining who he could be but no one came to mind. I
sat up and looked at her, remembering something important.
“Um Pixie, how did you know that I’m
hospitalised?” I looked at her closely choosing my words carefully.
“Oh. I was at the hospital when you
came in. I was here, because my father got heart attack and he’s hospitalised
for a while, but he’s okay.” She smiled right at me.
“I see.” I looked down not wanting to
see her reaction. I don’t trust her, I feel like she’s with that guy who took
me here or with Charles. I wonder what happened to him, I hope he’s dead by
now, I thought to myself.
“I’ll be going now to let you rest, so
um see you later” she waved and smiled, before she closes the door behind her.
That smile is not like earlier it’s a fake, I thought to myself. I took my eye
patch and covered my left eye.
“Ugh it’s boring here. I wish I can go
out and read or walk outside.” I whispered to myself. Suddenly, I heard a
ruckus outside in the hallway and someone crashed my door open sitting up while
rubbing the back of his head. He looked at me and smiled before he runs out and
fighting the one whose against him. He was tall, his body is fit and muscled,
has long black silky hair tied as a single ponytail and his bangs covering his
right eye. “What was that about?” I said to myself.
A nurse and a doctor were running and
they saw my crashed door. The doctor came in and looked around that nothing was
crashed. “What happened here?” the doctor was looking around and asking doesn’t
know if he’s asking me or just saying.
“A guy crashed onto the door and made
it flat like that.” I don’t know if he heard me or not, he was talking to the
nurse and then he went out before apologising about this ruckus. I sighed while
getting up, I was afraid that I would be in severe pain and start bleeding, but
instead, I didn’t feel anything as if I’m fully recovered. I checked the stab
on my stomach up to my chest and its slowly disappearing. I took off the stickers
for the pulse and food thing (don’t know what’s it called the things that they
put for you in the hospital) and went outside. I got out through the gate and
breathed in deeply for fresh air. I looked around to know where I am and
suddenly someone bumped into me making me fall on the ground, and I looked up
and it was the same guy.
“Oh. Hey! It’s you from earli—” he grabbed my
hand and started running.
“What? Hey! I’m still hurt you know!
Let me go you jerk, I have nothing to do with you and your problems!” I
struggled to break my hand free from his, but I failed. We turned to the corner
and stopped breathing heavy.
“I’m sorry about that, missy. But, you
do have something to do with it. First, let me introduce myself. I’m your
guard, Albert Alexander. I’m here to protect you and train you.” He bowed as he
smiled kissing my hand.
“What, my guard? You must be mistaken
you got the wrong girl.” I start to walk off before he grabs my hand again.
“It’s dangerous to be alone, missy.
You have to trust me on this. I shall do whatever you want just to prove you
that I am our guard.” His eyes are bright and filled with light despite its
dark colour purple.
“If I told you to jump from a high
cliff, you will?” I looked at him saying sarcastically, while crossing my arms
together.
“If I have to, I shall do it for you.”
He bowed again. But, he does seem honest about it and I think I should give him
a chance.
“Okay then, I will give you a chance
to prove to me that you are.”
“Oh! You’re so kind, milady! Thank
you!” he looked at me happily as if he’s a puppy.
“Why did you suddenly call me
“milady”?”
“Well, it’s because you accepted me as
your guard and as a respect I should call you milady from now on.” He looked at
me with worried eyes not wanting to harm me.
“Earlier, you said to train me. Train
me for what?”
“You don’t know what’s going on
nowadays? Your parents didn’t tell you anything?” he looked at me with
surprise.
“Tell me about what? What’s going on?”
I got scared of what he’s saying, why would my parents talk to me about this?
He sighed and kept looking around before he says anything.
“Come on; let’s go over to my place. I
will tell you everything.” His expression was serious, something dangerous is
happening.
“How can I come over to your place?
Talk to me here.” I pointed on my spot insisting on staying here. He chuckled
softly and stepped closer to me, pinning me on the wall. “Listen to me well,
milady. You have to come over.” He smiled in an evil way, while looking
at me with dark eyes filled with dark thoughts. He stepped away a bit and I
sighed. “Fine I’ll come over or whatever” I started walking before him and
thought what was all that about? He suddenly came closer to me; I looked up at
him for a moment then lifted my eyes in front of me. “Milady, you shouldn’t be
scared of me”
“Who said that I’m scared? I’m scared
of no one”
“But milady, your eye said so”
“My eye is lying to you”
“But milady---”
“Just tell me where your house is and
get this over with” I cut him off. He’s annoying and acting like a puppy, I
thought.
“Yes milady. It’s just after we turn
right.” He pointed to the right side after turning the right corner.
“And we’re here!” he smiled while
opening his arms wide open, welcoming me with a warm welcome. I stopped and
kept staring at his huge house it’s like a mansion. His house has a huge gate
with spikes on top and from inside a huge green garden with lots of colourful
flowers and his own house is white and huge.
“Whoa, that’s your house? I didn’t
expect it that way.” I couldn’t hide my surprised face.
“Why, thank you milady” he smiled
softly at me. “Come on, let’s go inside and you will see how it looks from the
inside!” he went inside before me, imagining how would it look from inside. I
started walking behind him looking around and he stopped by the door opening it
for me.
“Go on ahead, milady” holding the door
and gesturing his hand telling me to go in. I walked in and I stopped at the
door and looked back at him with shock. He tilted his head and looked at me if
there was something wrong.
“What is it, milady? Is there
something wrong with my house?”
“YES! What’s this?!” I gestured my
hands to everything in front of me. From inside, it looks old, messy, lots of
food wasted on the floor, and unwanted papers all around the hall.
“How can you do this to your house?
When it looks amazing from outside, but from the inside it’s the opposite of
what you imagine!” he chuckled and closed the door behind him.
“Milady, that’s only how it looks to
you, but when you close the door behind you-” suddenly, lots of noise of
machines started to work. Albert held me carrying me with both of his hands.
The walls suddenly shifted in a blink of an eye. The walls became golden and
new, and the floor became coloured marble and shiny from the chandeliers on the ceiling,
it turned to be a real mansion. I kept staring at how shiny the things are as
Albert put me back down. Albert started walking in front of me with a big grin
on his face. I started following as I was through the shiny hallway.
“What do you think of it, milady?”
Albert was smiling while he was looking in front of him.
“Uhh, I think it’s surprisingly
amazing.” He started chuckling after I
answered him. Albert stopped at a wooden mahogany with a golden knob; he opened
the door and a huge living room was revealed behind the door. Soft,
rich-looking sofas are next to each other, different designs of the chandeliers
hanging from the ceiling, and a table made up of pure silver that shines so
bright sitting in the middle of the sofas, and decorated with white and red roses
and the soft pink sheet that covers the table with gold shaped like flowers
pinned at the edges of the sheet and a white sparkling piano behind the sofas
has its own shine from the chandeliers, the walls are soft pink that makes you
feel relaxed. Albert stood at a side and stretched his arm half bowing “after
you milady.” Smiling so bright at me. I don’t even know if that bright is from
his smile or from the chandeliers hanging in the living room. I walked in and
stood in the middle of the living room.
“What’s the matter milady? You can go
ahead and sit wherever you want and I’ll go make some tea or coffee if you
like.”
“It’s fine, I don’t want anything. I
only want to know what you said you will inform me about.” I sat on the soft
sofa making myself comfy, I softly smiled at the feeling of the sofa and
thought I really should stay here. Albert went to the kitchen where it looks
all shiny from silver and gold all around the kitchen. Albert started making
Earl Grey tea, pouring the red tea into a fancy cup, where it’s decorated with
light soft pink roses with silver-coloured leaves and stems that are coming from
the flowers. Albert put 2 cups on a sliver tray, filled with red tea. I kept
walking around the room looking at how beautifully it structured, until I heard
a door open and it was Albert holding a tray while smiling.
“The tea is served milady.” I walk
towards the couches and sit, while he handed me the cup of tea.
“Thank you. So, tell me what’s going
on.” I took a sip of the hot tea that stung my tongue, feeling it as if it’s on
fire.
“Indeed milady. First, from now on I
shall be your guard. I sincerely apologize, but you can’t make me leave you or
you try running away from me.” He took a sip of his tea before continuing.
“What? Why?” I placed the cup on the
table to hear him well.
“Second, I shall tell you about what’s
happening nowadays. There is a big, dangerous organisation named PH “Power
Hunters”. Their aim is to retrieve all humans who have supernatural powers,
especially the ones who possess the crimson eyes. PH organisation brainwash
those people to make them kill every innocent human in this world. As well as,
there is another organisation that fights against PH and they’re called Light
Angels. I am one of them and of course you shall join us, won’t you?” he smiled
softly at me.
“But, why me?” I took another sip of
my tea that got warm.
“You mean that you do not know your
real identity and your story?”
“What do you mean?” I frowned of
confusion.
“Oh dear me, that means I have to tell
you everything from the beginning. Milady, you have to listen to me to the end.
After you listen to me, you will decide if you join us or not.” I nodded a bit
scared of the truth.
“Milady, you are half demon king. Your
real name is Emily hellscythe. Your real father is a demon king from hell and
you are his daughter princess Emily.” Albert kept his serious eyes in mine, but
my eyes are filled with shock and terror.
