Chapter 9: Chapter 9

Emily's POV

I rose slowly, the maid's eyes growing wider and wider as I stood up and faced her with my eyes still watered.

"I'm getting the guards." She said and dropped her cleaning supplies to make a dash for the door but I was quick in stopping her.

"Please don't. He knows I'm here. I don't want to get him into trouble." I begged her.

"Who are you?" She asked.

"My name is Emily. Emily Hollen. Sebastian and I are... togeth... we're frie..." I was tongue tied as I remembered the reason I was crying. Apparently, the maid saw my defeat and came over and wrapped me in a small hug without saying another word. Silent tears rolled down my cheeks again and I attempted to pull myself together.

Shortly after, the maid left and locked the door after her. I was alone again and in my head, I was thinking about how to fight with Sebastian when he gets back.

'You son of a bitch... NO! that's too over the top. You bastard! No! I can't be so disrespectful to him!'
