Capítulo 13: A Dead Answer
We stood there now and the silence was killing me. I pondered what his next action will be, he wasn't giving any room for prediction, he was like a cold wall before me ready to consume me. His strange aura was still around him, the dark flames but it wasn't hostile as it was back then. But that doesn't mean I should keep my guard down.
I grip his clothes once again hoping I would grab his attention because he was just like a wall standing before me with no life or breathing whatsoever and what scared me the most was... his heart was no longer beating, I couldn't feel the little vibration anymore, was he dead? I don't think so, more like he was frozen in time, I was mentally panicking!
Please stop… say something or go away, I don't think I can bear this anymore. I gave him pleading eyes as best as I could muster but I wasn't so sure it was getting to him, how can I tell with that blank mask on his face? Is he really dead?!
I heard approaching footsteps but I didn't dare to turn.
"Master, you called me"
That voice was Elvenia's.
William finally moved, and a breath of relief found me... He was leaning toward me but now he was standing at his full height, I gulped seeing the action. His height was so intimidating, I felt like a twig in front of him, something he could snap with just a finger if he so desired. Severus, the only other male I have seen in this household, wasn't even up to his height like he was the only otherworldly being.
"Rid her of the mortal realm filth," he said in his usual calm tone.
"Permission to touch the young miss," Elvenia said.
"Granted" were his only words as he picked up his staff and walked away and I only just stared at him as he did, until he disappeared out the door. What just happened?
"Young miss"
I turned my dread wide eyes and half-open mouth to Elvenia, she was bowing to me now and the action didn't sit well with me, she was overly respectful and I wasn't worth that privilege.
She placed her right palm on her left upper chest with her head still bent.
"I request you strip Young miss so I may bathe you, you smell and you're covered in filth, Master is repulsive to things in filth, so let me get you clean so that you would be eye pleasing to him" she rants as she raised her head and locked her cold obsidian eyes on me.
Did she just say I smell? And filth? I looked down at myself, she may be right though, I was only bathed when I was being auctioned, and other than that I haven't had a single bath in a year.
Is that why? I was unpleasant before his eyes, I was filthy that is why he insisted on bathing me. I frowned and gripped the jacket tightly around me. I don't know why I felt hurt because of his reason when I shouldn't but I just did.
"Young miss" Elvenia stated in a firm tune that caused me to jump.
I sighed, releasing my grip on the jacket. I wasn't afraid right now mostly because she was a lady like me, well I don't know what she is... she has pointy ears and that isn't exactly normal, but she is feminine. And not to mention the cold dark aura around her like a glow, it was a perfect extension of her but not as cold as William's. So I let my guard down, stripping off William's jacket I suddenly missed as it dropped to the floor. I kept my eyes on it as I removed the rest of my torn clothing.
Elvenia walked past me and stood to the stream and pointed to it. I got what she meant as I walked to the water and stepped in and faced her.
"Shall we begin?"
