Chương 60: NAKED IN HER BATH
Earlier, when she was so traumatized from last night's incidents, she had not realized her bracelet had come off her wrist.
Falcon had spotted it when he had come in search of his master and witnessed his master's strange affections unfolding in front of him. He turned to leave but something shined brightly causing him to squint his eyes. He walked towards it only to see a beautiful bracelet lying on the floor. As soon as he met his master and he had given it to him, it was too late, the lady wasn't in the mansion but had gone.
Astrel glanced at the bracelet and frowned. It didn't look as normal as it seemed to be when taken in a closer look. He had seen her wear this on her wrist whenever he saw her.
He observed it keenly as he felt the paranormality in it. He could get the answers for everything easily, but not here, not on earth. He had to take the girl to the underworld, which he didn't like at all. Though he had already taken her in unknown to her, it wasn't ok for him to do it again. It wasn't a place for a human to wander. Not a safe place at all. Not for an innocent girl who looked excited about anything that she spotted like a child.
Keeping the bracelet on his bedside stand, he sighed and laid his head on his bed staring at the bluish monochrome ceiling straight above his bed.
The next morning, employees were in a bustle, running now and then with their files, some were busy on the phone call convincing others to complete their work, and some were crying in the bathroom as they could not believe they were fired. A usual bustle, it is.
Watson's company was another world that could turn one's life upside down and so could it rise the hidden sunshine in one's life unexpectedly. Employees were never at ease when they were at work. They had to do anything or everything as if they were walking on an eggshell.
One would never know when or how would they be fired so they had to work for their best. It doesn't mean they were not paid well. They were paid well, so it was worth working in such a company with so much trust kept for the company and their boss in everyone's heart, knowing that they had a better future even if they had to work with anxiety creeping to their best.
"He's coming!!!" came the warnings and murmurs out of everyone's mouths letting everyone know the arrival of him. The man they feared the most.
"Clean up your desk!" whispered a lady to her co-worker. Everyone rushed to their desk and stood up even before the man entered the second floor. The sharp clicks of his shoes could be heard scaring everyone present. The Elevator dinged open rising everyone's heartbeat.
Unisons of greetings followed Astrel's presence but he paid no heed to it, instead, he walked straight to his C-suite but before the employees could sigh out of relief Astrel's footsteps came to an abrupt stop. Some bit their lips while some crossed their fingers behind their back out of nervousness.
"Why's the paper licking the floor, Thomas?" Without facing the person Astrel questioned. His voice echoed in the silent hall causing the nearest of them to jerk at the deep voice and intimidating aura that was emitted by him.
"I-"
"Clean up the mess and you know what to do," Came the stern words of his and he entered his office leaving the young man Thomas trembling in fear.
Everyone gazed at the man with a pitying look while he cleaned up and went straight to the C-suite where Astrel was busy on a call. Malcolm motioned Thomas not to enter in yet with his hand.
After Astrel ended his call surprisingly he didn't fire the man but reduced his wages for a required and dismissed the man. Though the man was sad about it he was more than thankful for not getting fired or he'd have to search for a new job.
Sunshine in the perfect landscape was illuminating the path with its clearest in the midday light, giving a beautiful view through the transparent glass in the Office.
A sigh left Astrel's lips closing the last file which consisted of the materials that were needed for the weapons along with its cost. They had to order the materials and other needings within a month if they needed them before the winter falls. Everything was perfectly going as per his order.
Sipping the coke he took the shiny bracelet out of his trouser pocket and observed the bracelet on his palm, tracing it with his thumb as he stood up from his swivel armchair and walked towards the transparent glass in front of him. He stood there placing the bracelet back in his trouser pocket looking at nothing in particular as he thought of yesterday's event.
Last night when he teleported to his room carrying Vilian in his arms she vomited on him and herself after the teleportation, which caused her to feel dizzy and nauseous.
He grunted as looked down at the state he was in. 'This troublesome kitty is seriously giving me a hard time,' thought Astrel and said her to wait till he come back and entered his ensuite to clean the mess. When he came back with his shirt still unbuttoned she wasn't where she was.
He saw her lying on his bed. 'What the hell? She's sleeping on my bed with that vomit on her?!' he said as he came walking towards her but then saw her nightgown lying on the floor.
'This is crazy! She isn't naked, is she?' he annoyingly exclaimed as he walked forward. Not soon a door knock came and he paused as he walked towards the door not thinking twice and there stood a maid bowing her head holding a tray that had some cans of coke for him to quench his night thirst.
'Come in,' he said confusing the maid who was already trembling in fear but she walked in quietly.
'Go check,' whether, is she dressed or not," he ordered. The maid didn't dare to raise her head but walked towards the girl who was now peacefully sleeping on the bed hugging a fluffy pillow on her chest.
'What are you waiting for? walk fast!' he said annoyingly and the maid lifted the blanket with her trembling clammy hand and a slender long bare leg came into her view causing her to widen her eyes but then when she looked further up her widened eyes turned back to normal. She put the blanket back and turned towards Astrel.
As she bowed she spoke, 'Y-yes, master A-astrel.' She stuttered.
'What yes? Dressed or not?'
'She's dressed in a blue shirt,' she said this time trying hard not to stutter and infuriate her master.
It was the shirt he covered her with, earlier.
He harrumphed and dismissed the maid who immediately ran out of his room clutching onto her dear life.
As he walked toward her, he wrapped her properly into the blanket and looked at the sleeping figure who snuggled in the blanket and made her way toward him in her sleep, seeking heat.
Astrel just stared at her for a three long minute. Shaking off his head he didn't think it was a better idea to let her stay here anymore so he carried her in his arms and drove to Mia's home and left Vilian under his cousin's care and reached the blue mansion in no time.
He didn't have much strength to use the teleportation power for a long distance as he had already used it often lately making him crave blood. The very night he had to drink a lot of coke to distract himself from everything and anything.
As he came back from his clouds of thoughts about last night he teleported to Vilian, but neither did he expect her to be having her bath nor did he expect his teleporting powers to bring him straight into her en-suite. He was caught off guard.
