Kapitel 17: Whose Chambers Is This?
Sleep has never been so peaceful but ever since I came to this strange place I knew what 'peaceful sleep' meant, having no worries at the back of your head. I groaned tussling and turning against the bed, the mattress was the softest I have ever laid on and it made my body feel so light, it was just like the stream but this was different, it was like I was on something fluffy and it brought relaxation to my muscles... a feeling I have never experienced before, the feeling of something gentle against my skin was simply smooching.
I have only known the cold floor and over the years I became comfortable with it, not complaining and accepting my fate, instead, it became where I found peace in myself because sleep was able to induce that kind of peace away from the real world even though it was just temporary. Even right now I lay on the floor because that was what I was used to, the hardened floor that made my muscles sore, I can't help it... my body was craving that feeling because without it I don't know what. But wait…
I felt my palm on the bed, bed? I was lying on the bed and not the floor? How did I end up here? Did I sleepwalk into it? Maybe that must be the case, my body must have been craving something soft so I sleepwalked all the way to the bed.
I groaned again, slowly opening my eyes, and met with dim blue eyes staring back at me. I blinked because it felt like I must be seeing things because there was no way someone would be in my room for I knew the routine, Elvenia will come to wake me up as usual for a bath, so what was Sophie doing here?
I gasped as the realization struck me hard and I got up with a start and pulled the sheets with me.
Sophie kept her piercing glare on me with a pouting face like I just stole her toy or something. What was she doing in my room? Wait, I looked around the unfamiliar place, okay this is not my chamber because this was the biggest, bigger than mine combine and the setting was on a much darker tone than mine and the antiques that were spotted and the paintings on the walls were definitely not the same from my room. Whose room is this?
"What are you doing on Muster's bed!"
I turned to Sophie who pointed an accusing finger at me. What did she just say? I'm on Williams' bed?! I panicked, my body shocked and I was unable to stop myself as I jumped out of the bed like the sheets burn me, I twisted my ankle but not enough to hurt me but to make me fall and the next my body was dropping.
I closed my eyes for the impact but I got nothing rather as I fell in a strong set of arms. I lifted my gaze and met with a blank white mask.
William!
My heart slammed a loud heartbeat, just this simple touch gave a funny feeling in my body but I cannot focus on that... not when I just found out I spent the night in his room. That means that dream of him carrying me was real... he brought me to his room! Oh gods could something have happened? I don't feel different, I just feel myself and I have had the best sleep ever.
"Sophie" his voice came and it caused a chill to run through me, that tone of his voice was like a spell in my head, waiting for it to be chanted again. The chills that radiated my body was unbearable.
"What did I tell you about coming into my chambers?" his attention was on pouting Sophie now.
That was my cue, I moved away from him quickly like his touch was poisonous to me, maybe it was because it made me feel things I shouldn't, I don't want to be infected. I pressed my back against the wall next to the bed as he continued to question Sophie, seeming unbothered by my actions.
"Muster!" she wailed and jumped at him, grabbing his leg again like she did the first time I came. She was clingy again.
"Leave now Sophie," he says in a normal calming tone for I knew if it was anyone else they would have been ticked off by Sophie's clingy attitude.
She bit her bottom lip and further pouted.
But William paid her no heed. She faces me with that glaring eyes of hers and her fox ears twitching too as well as her tail. I almost scolded her but I remember my condition.
"You're stealing Muster from me!" she barked at me before jumping off William's leg and rushing out on all fours her tail wagging back and forth.
"Forgive Sophie for her attitude," William says the moment the door slams shut. "She's still one of my creations that needs discipline"
Creations? Why was he talking like he was the one who created her? That can't be right... then he must be a god or something. I paled. The Grandmaster and the people back at that place called him a fox god, could it be...
"Although I'm still trying to understand her" he placed a hand on his chin like he was thinking and it grabbed my attention. "I do not wish to discipline her like I did the other two, 'Why' you must be curious" he faces me and he tilts his head to the side. "Because I want to understand her emotions..."
Understand emotions? Okay, he wasn't making sense now.
"Emotions are one gesture I'm yet to comprehend, they are ever-changing and unpredictable than books that remain the same thick cover and the same words written within its contents"
I blinked watching this mountain of a man speak to me, yes... he was speaking more than he does and he wanted me to listen even though he knew I would not say anything back to him, isn't that considered boring?
"Elvenia will be here soon, she will get you ready and bring you to me," he says only and walked down the stairs, I noticed he was dressed corporately, but without the jacket, just the white shirt with a round hand and waistcoat, black with silver design around it, black pants and knee-length boats.
His silver hair flowed freely over his shoulder, a part of him that always caught my undeniable attention.
What did he say again? Oh no my mind is having a hard time processing things now, this is too much for me.
