2 The Room
Alyuura was still silent, her breath still gasping for air. Her body felt very tired and heavy. She wanted to close her eyes for a moment. She wanted to sleep. But she didn't dare to stay awake. Because that perverted human named Lucas can climb up on her bed at any time and commit lewd acts on Alyuura.
"Sorry, Miss Alyuura, we will clean your body." A servant asked Alyuura for permission. She had brought some kind of expensive soap with a sweet scent.
Besides the maid, there were also several other maids who brought towels and some other toiletries.
"I can take a bath by myself," Alyuura refused. She does not like it when his body is seen and held by others. Even though it was a fellow woman.
"I'm sorry, Miss, but we beg you to take a bath with us. If you refuse, Mr. Lucas will punish us. We beg you, Miss. "
Alyuura could sense the fear of the maids from their tone. Their pale faces with worried eyes made Alyuura believe that if she refused to be served, the maids would be the victims.
"Okay, but... you just have to supervise and provide my toiletries. I'm not used to having my body held by other people," said Alyuura.
"Okay Miss, thank you very much. Please follow us, we'll take you to your bathhouse."
Alyuura frowned. She looked surprised after hearing the maid's words.
"What do you mean? Doesn't this room already have a bathroom in it?" asked Alyuura, her hand pointing to a bathroom located not far from where the maids were standing.
"No, this is for a regular bath. There is a special bath for you, Miss, "replied the maid.
Alyuura scratched her cheek while grimacing. Alyuura was still trying to understand the reason why she had to bathe elsewhere.
"Really, what's the difference between bathing here and bathing there?" asked Alyuura curiously.
"That is required, Miss. Every companion of the Great Lord from year to year in this family is required to bathe there. For whatever reason, it is not our authority to tell you, "replied the servant.
Alyuura shrugged her shoulders nonchalantly. She didn't want to give her head a headache, and she was also very tired. So she just followed what the maids said without any further questions.
The maid took out a key from her pocket. That key was used to open the chain wrapped around Alyuura's ankle. Even though this was a very good opportunity for her to escape, she still thought about the fate of the servants who could end up in Lucas' hands if Lucas was angry.
Their footsteps made a resounding sound along the luxurious halls of the mansion.When Alyuuraa looked at the parts of the mansion, it felt like she was in a palace. The house was so big, spacious, and full of luxury.
The decorative lights are so bright, the car walls are cream-colored with a golden finish, and the expensive furniture is also there. The tiled floor was so clean and shiny, even Alyuura could clearly reflect on it.
Maybe Lucas is a typical person who likes ancient European architecture. It is reflected in the Lucas house building, which looks like a royal palace on the European continent in the Middle Ages.
And now, everything is back in the days of the kingdom. Although not directly, but basically, the system and its values are taken from the government system in the form of a kingdom. With the highest position held by the emperor.
But the current system is more complicated. Because in one country, you can have several areas led by the emperor. And it all depends on the strength of the emperor in each area.
Turning from that, now Alyuura and all the maids who accompanied her had arrived in front of a tall and big door. The door was filled with beautiful carvings, but Alyuura didn't understand what they meant. This very intricate carving seems to have a deep meaning and is not just a mere decoration. But Alyuura again chose not to worry about that.
One of the maids approached Alyuura. She carefully spoke to Alyuura. "Miss, I'm sorry. But, allow me to ask for a little of your blood to open this door."
Alyuura, who was new to the place, certainly couldn't understand what the maid's request meant. Okay, she knew the servant did ask for her blood to open the door, but for what reason could the door open with her blood?
Alyuura was not a member of the Efword family. She is also not the owner of the house; furthermore, she has never had her blood dripped on the door in front of her. Then how could he suddenly ask for her blood with an excuse to open this door?
"Wait, opening this door with my blood? What the hell is that? Even if it's my first time setting foot in this place, how can my blood be used as the key to open this door?" asked Alyuura, there was a tone of protest at her words.
The servants who were there again became restless. They looked exasperated. They also glanced at each other, with the intention of telling one another to answer Alyuura's question.
"Because you are the owner of the room," said a man who approached the crowd of women there.
That man is Lucas. With a haughty face, he approached Alyuura, who was looking at him with disapproval.
"Stop confusing me, Lucas." Alyuura returned Lucas' mischievous gaze with her sharp gaze.
Lucas snorted softly, wanting to use his strength to kill the woman who had dared to speak presumptuously to him. However, he still remembered that his goal was to obtain descendants of Alyuura. Lucas had to be more patient.
"Explain to me, Lucas. How can my blood be used to open this door? While this is my first time in your house, "protested Alyuura.
"Because you are the one who will give birth to Efword's offspring," Lucas replied.
Alyuura glared at Lucas. Her upper lip lifted, a sharp look, then hissed softly. Lucas was the strangest human Alyuura had ever met in her life.
Strange in terms of attitude.
Selfish, hot-tempered, cold, doesn't care about others, easy to be violent. And there are many more Lucas attitudes that make Alyuura embarrassed and disgusted.
Fortunately, Lucas's appearance and wealth are far above the standard. So there is still something to be proud of in the man's figure.
But for Alyuura herself, it's not important if it's not balanced with a good personality. For Alyuura, that trait came first. Because it's useless to have wealth and a qualified appearance, but the heart is always hurt by an inhuman attitude.
"You've repeated those words so many times. Are you stupid or deaf huh?! Don't you have other words besides that huh?!"
Hearing Alyuura's reply, the servants immediately panicked and tried to stop Alyuura's reckless actions. If not, maybe after this Alyuura's words will also affect the fate of all of them.
"I don't need to go into more detail. Because you can find the answer directly by dripping your blood on the door, "Lucas replied. "That door has been passed down from generation to generation by the blood of the mother of the descendants of Efword for generations. If you are indeed a woman who is fit to be the mother of my child, then your blood will be well received by that door."
Alyuura glared, even though Lucas had explained things about the door. But still, Alyuura did not fully understand the intricacies of that strange door. But then again, because Alyuura wasn't a girl who wanted to make things difficult for herself. So Alyuura gave up her arm so that one of the maids there could slash it.
"Excuse me, Miss. I'm sorry for injuring your hand," said the maid respectfully.
"Go ahead, a small wound won't kill me," Alyuura replied in an even tone.
After receiving the blood from Alyuura, the door emitted a golden light. It doesn't dazzle, but it's bright enough and the light is soft. Alyuura, who saw this moment for the first time, was immediately amazed. She forgot a little about the bickering between herself and Lucas earlier.
"Please enjoy your private room," Lucas said.
Instead of replying to Lucas' words, Alyuura was busy admiring the beauty of the room.
It is not suitable to be called a room, because when you enter there, Alyuura is presented with beautiful and open natural views.
Trees, mountains, then there's the big mansion. Not far from there, there is a very beautiful bathing place. Above the bathhouse, there are plants that dangle beautifully with pink and purple flowers.
The water in the bath is also so bright and beautiful. It was bluish in color and very clear. Even Alyuura could see the bottom of the bathhouse, which was something similar to a flower but growing in the water.
"This is the favorite place for the wives of the heirs of wealth in the Efword family. Enjoy it while you can. You will find beauty if you continue to follow my words. Not only this, but there is much more that you will gain. But if you resist, you will lose everything. As well as your own life, "Lucas said.
Before leaving the place, Lucas had approached Alyuura. With eyes that emitted a beam of golden yellow light, he stared at Alyuura so deeply that Alyuura froze in place without moving an inch.
A little peck on Alyuura's neck came from Lucas. But just as Lucas' canines were about to be shoved into the neck, Lucas felt an invisible impact hit him in the heart. made Lucas give up his intention of putting his possession symbol around Alyuura's neck.
