Chapter 16: Secret of the Phosphorescent
I woke up from my deep sleep while panting very hard as sweat is dripping from my body.
I dreamed about him again.
"Are you ok, Young Miss?" Butler Warren asked, who is currently seating leisurely on my sofa while eating a portion of junk food.
I sighed and did not answer.
"Butler Warren, did you find anything?" I asks as I stood up to take a shower.
"Still the same, Young Miss." He answered and stood up too to pick clothes for me.
Still have no clue about him.
I nodded and take a bath.
After that night, I could barely remember what happened next.
They said I was lost for months and my family went crazy searching for me and almost reveal my identity only to find me outside our mansion, unconscious.
All I know is he did not do anything wrong to me and I care about him. I always feel like I owe him something big and I need to see him again. Unfortunately, no matter how many times I dreamed about him, it will only vanish the next day, and could not remember his face or his name.
"The car is ready, Young Miss." I nodded and wear my barrette before covering it with my bonnet.
He was about to open my door when I stop him. "You did not tell them about it right?" I squinted my eyes and look at him suspiciously.
He chuckled and shook his head. "Young Miss, I'm only loyal to you." I glared at him.
I snorted. "Old Warren, do you think I'm stupid?" He smiled and bowed a little.
"Young Miss is really good." I didn't say anything and wear my boots.
I sat on my sofa while Butler Warren went out to check things out and arranged the things we needed.
It's been a long time since I visit that place...
-
"You look tired." I put down my fork and swallowed the food in my mouth.
"I was watching Akatsuki no Yona last night." Syl arched her eyebrow and nodded.
"You caught up with the latest update?" I nodded lazily and bite my hotdog.
"You look tired." I pursed my lips and glared at Syl.
She's doing it on purpose! I was really tired last night that I can't entertain her and nightmares attacked me! Besides, I really can't sleep with someone besides me.
She just shrugged her shoulders and continue eating while glaring at me. I ignored her and asks Butler Warren to bring my dessert.
After eating my dessert, I went to my room and slept. However, sleep seems don't agree with me.
I stared at my ceiling again. asides from the stars and moon there is a little goddess there holding a bow and arrow and it will not be noticeable if you do not look closely at the ceiling.
Actually, some of the phosphorescent or glow in the dark have meanings or it indicate something.
The goddess arrow is pointing to one of the frames on my wall, which is the replica of the necklace given by that guy years ago.
The other one is the half-moon surrounded by the stars, the Sirius, Vega, and Andromeda. They are at the center of the ceiling which is very noticeable. It was also the same as one of the frames in my room, however, it was a painting and the moon is full. But when night comes, it will glow and the true form of the painting will show. When this painting moves, it will lead to a secret room full of weapons and things that are important and should not be in my room.
I look at my door when I hear a knock. "Can I come in?" She asks softly.
Seems like she can't ignore me forever.
"Yeah."
She entered my room and lay on my bed beside me. "I heard Tita is coming today..." she trailed off.
"In the evening." She nodded.
Actually, my parents are really busy but that is not the real reason why they are not coming home. The palace is their home while this mansion is my home. They will only come here if they have an announcement for me or they needed something from me.
I grow up alone with only Butler Warren and Old Riana by my side. When I was a kid, I've always thought that they are just really busy with work not until my brother also leave me alone in this mansion and only visits me when he have time or when he can escape from the eyes of the paparazzi which is very rare to happen but that did not make us grow distant to each other.
"But I have a problem. I don't think she knew that my bodyguards are the five idiots. Compared to Father, Mother really despises those five idiots. She holds grudges from them more than I do." Syl suddenly rises from my bed.
She sat on my single sofa and put her finger on her head. "Yeah. I could still remember how she banned the four idiots from leaving the country, unfortunately, Domenicus left the country earlier." She shivered as she think of the past.
"Uh-huh! If only she could castrate them to death, she would do it." I added.
"If only their family don't have a contribution to our country, I don't think Tita will let go of them!" I sighed and massaged my temple.
How am I going to tell the five idiots to not follow me and wander around later?
My eyes widened as I got up from my bed as I look at Syl. Realization hit me.
No. They should really hide! They should not see my mother's face or else, they will find out that I'm a princess or somehow I'm related to the royal family!
"That's not the biggest problem!" I hysterically told her as paced back and forth in front of her.
They never saw my parents' faces. Mom always wears a huge hat or a mask to cover her face. While father also wears a mask or most of the time he wears customs. According to him, it was his dream since childhood.
I was always wondering before if he was there to support me and attend the parents meeting or he was there too embarrassed me.
"Chill. I'm sure Old Riana knew what she's doing!" She shrugged but I saw how her face grimaced at what she said.
"Or maybe not?" I rolled my eyes and shook my head.
"Butler Warren!" I shouted and seconds later the door opened and it shows Butler Warren holding junk food again.
"Yes, Young Miss?"
"We have a problem!" He just glance at me and continue eating his junk food.
"Ahm! Ahm!" I stared at him badly and just gasped at the extreme stress I was feeling.
Why am I talking to them? They are even more useless than those dogs on the street.
I lay on my bed and think thoroughly. Mother will come over later and they should not meet each other for reasons. First and most important, my mother is the queen of our country and her other identity is her being my mother that should be unknown. Second, my mother hates them to the bone. I don't know what she will do if she finds out that my father fooled him and nobody told her that. And that will lead all of us to trouble.
The mansion is indeed huge and if only they don't stick with me like an annoying insect then everything is fine. However, Domenicus stick to his rules does his job properly.
So, all I could think is to make them leave the house.
But the question is how to do it without Domenicus suspecting anything. Knowing him, he wouldn't care even if Mother will punish all of us as long as he is doing his job.
"Aona, why does your refrigerator only have sweets?" I look at Syl and then at the sweets. My eyes brighten when an idea appeared on my mind.
Right!
James!
"Butler Warren, call James."
"But why?" I frowned while looking at him.
"What do you mean by why?" I ask.
"Don't get mad, Young Miss. It just that, Mr. Domenicus would not let go James without giving him an explanation."
And when did a bodyguard have the right to question my personal Butler?
"Are you telling me that a mere bodyguard has more authority than my Butler?" My voice is fierce as I look at him, almost glaring.
He cleared his throat and laughed awkwardly. He put down his junk food and stood. His carefree face changed and became serious.
"I'm sorry, Young Miss. It won't happen again. A bodyguard can never bully the Young Miss people. I'll punish myself as I punish them!" What he said caught my attention.
I shook my head and a smirk slowly crept on my lips.
That's actually a good idea.
"Butler Warren, you're the best!" I praised him. To my great delight, I jumped up and happily hugged Butler Warren.
