8 After all,you're only a mere servant.

When Elijah woke up he felt his body sore all over, his eyes felt puffy from all the crying.

He looked around the room and Aaron was nowhere to be seen,he took his pillows and blanket back to his room and took a warm shower to wake himself up.Still wearing his pyjamas, he began to walked downstairs and heard a strangers voice talking to someone?

"C'mon chill Aaron your best friend literally took them to visit you" a unfamiliar voice said,it sounded so smooth and controlling just like a sirens call.

"Get out. Take your play toy with you too." Aaron snapped back,Elijah finally reached the bottom floor and stood near the staircase to eavesdrop on their conversation.

"Tsk you're no fun, atleast let me stay here or a week jesus" The unknown man demanded.

"Fine-" and thats when Aaron noticed Elijah hiding in the hallway and rolled his eyes. Elijah knew he got caught as soon as Aaron looked in the direction he was in. He walked up towards the stranger and Aaron proceeded to look and analyse whether the stranger was a good man or not.

The stranger looked to me Elijah that he was dominating in some sort of way he had and green emerald eyes that shined with perfect face features and a sharp jawline his body had a musuclar build. Elijah can't help but drool a little at the perfect man infront of him well two perfect man. Beside the stranger there was a boy standing by his side holding his arm and rubbing his face against it, now here's the strange part he had cat ears and a collar on and the strange man was petting him like a cat!

Elijah freaked out now knowing what sort of fetish the weird man had and put his hsnds on his face in shock.Aaron looked at Elijah and gave him a dissapointed and angry look,which Elijah didn't notice.

"Oh hey cutie ? Do you know-" The man mouth was shut before he could continue to say more as Aaron was releasing strong pheromones and a deadly vibe, Elijah felt like he couldn't breathe and started coughing. While the stranger started to go closer to Aaron and held him down but he was far too strong,he threw the stranger to the side with his arms.

"AARON STOP IT! YOU'RE SCARING THE POOR BOYS"The stranger yelled trying to snap Aaron out of it.

"Master Aar-" Elijah coughed due to the lack of air before he could finish his sentence,but it looked like it worked Aaron stop releasing the phermones and calmed down, Elijah was still gasping in horror.

Aaron looked at Elijah and a frown grew on his face and he looked disappointed in himself,before anyone could say anything he left the hallway and turned a corner and disappeared without turning back.

Elijah quickly stood up and tried to run after Aaron but the stranger stopped him.

"Don't do it, it's best if you leave him alone now. Ah I didn't introduce myself! My names Edward, Aaron's best friend"

Elijah nodded and quickly left the room,uninterested in what the man has to offer or say.Instead,he ran to where he last saw Aaron not being able to find him he asked the other servants for clues and directions. With all the instructions it eventually led him to the top level off the mansion, a room with blacked stained glass with one lonely figure standing,staring at the rising sun.

"Uh Master Aaron just now-"

"Who allowed you to come here? I didn't give you permission " Aaron snapped with no tone of remorse in his voice.

"Just if you think you could follow me around and ask questions, you are gravely mistaken. I was being nice cause you reminded me of someone, don't take my kindness for granted. After all, you're only a mere servant." Aaron said with a tone of seriousness and

frustration.

Elijah felt like he was crumbling into pieces and was hurt that Aaron didn't feel affection for him whatsoever. He apologised quickly and left the top level with teats building up behind his eyes and he blinked feeling a waterstream falling down his face,he wasn't paying attention and lost hold of the handle and fell down the stairs with a loud thud.

"Ouch" Elijah groaned in pain. He quickly checked his leg as it was the part which hit the sharp part of the stairway when he fell down, it was bleeding and there was a deep cut at the calf area. Elijah used the handle of the staircase and made himself stand up,groaning in pain as he got up he felt his tears rolling down his face again in pain.

He eventually dragged his feet to his room as the level he fell on was coincidentally his room.

Elijah decided to take a shower again and clean up the bruise in the shower with the liquid that was in the drawer in his room.

After showering he looked in the mirror, he was shocked to see that his mark on his neck no longer had a silver tint at the blade area.

'this is the end' Elijah thought,he felt like crying again realising nobody had affection for him,he got ahead of himself to think he'd have a chance,he began to bandage his leg with the items they had provided him in the drawer.

Elijah wore his clothes again and head downstairs,he headed to the kitchdn and took a piece of bread and ate it on the way to the Office with a bloodpack. He knocked on the door and was granted permission to come in,he gently placed the bloodpack down on Master Aaron's desk and proceeded to stand at the side of the desk,with his back straight and waited for instructions instead of sitting next to him and reading a book like yesterday.

"Files on the shelf 127,take all of them."

Elijah limped outside the door,biting his lips to reduce the pain he felt in his legs. He went up the ladder and groaned as his leg was giving up on him as he climbed it,he ignored the pain and started to look for the book climbing up the ladder seeing shelf 125..126 and eventually 127,he reached out and grabbed the stack of files and head down slowly,resting a while at every bit of the ladder as his leg pained started to hurt more. He finally reached the bottom of the ladder and quickly limped towards the office as he falter.

Elijah passed Aaron the file and proceeded to turn his back and walked to the side waiting for new instructions,this continued on for the entire day, his leg pain started to increase but he eventually started to ignore it and hopes the pain goes away. Unfortunately it did not and he had to stand still and move around got the entire day until 10 o'clock. He wad exhausted and out of energy as the only thing he had eaten was the piece of bread in the morning. Aaron dismissed Elijah as it was late and continued with his work.

Elijah while walking out of the library fell and screamed a little at the pain and quickly stood up again as he was afraid that Master Aaron might have heard that and may scold him.

He went to the kitchen and looked around for food. Not seeing any as the servant's meal were normally served at 5 o'clock but he had a separate sheldule from them so he wasn't allowed to eat anything. He saw an apple in the fridge and thought it would suffice,so he quickly gobbled the apple up and headed to his bedroom so he could take a shower and rest,still limping in pain he slowly made his way up to his bedroom and took a shower and changed his bandaged and eventually not being able to hold his emotions in anymore,he cried himself to sleep.
