Chapter 12

That's when I slowly saw the wardrobe opening, I could see the person right in front of me. He wasn't doing anything, just standing there.

Minutes before the current incident

The maids were working downstairs doing their usual tasks, cleaning. Then suddenly, someone barged into the door *BANG* the person hit the door too hard it fell, the maids and the other workers looked at the person by the door, they then started screaming in excitement, they quickly rushed to the person and the maids talked a lot, but the person was annoyed so he told them to shut up so they all went silent.

"Where is he?"

The mysterious person asked.

The maid replied with a smile

"He is upstairs, sir.."

As the mysterious person walk the stairs, each step creaked beneath their weight. They made their way towards Aether's room, moving slowly and cautiously. As they entered the room, their eyes scanned the space, searching for any sign of a person. Noticing that no one was there, the person began to look around the room further. Their search led them to a large wardrobe, standing tall against one wall. The person approached it with caution, their fingers wrapping around the handle of the door. Slowly, inch by inch, they began to pull it open.

Aether's POV

I saw him, he was standing right in front of me, he had such luxurious golden hair that was done in such a perfect cut, his eyes were staring at me but I didn't feel threatened at all when I saw his face, was it because hwasis handsome?

The man's voice was devoid of any emotion as he stared at me with a penetrating gaze. My heart pounded in my chest as he asked, "What are you doing here?" I hesitated, unsure of how to respond.

After a moment of silence, I managed to gather my courage and replied, "Ah- I was hiding..". I continued to meet his gaze, hoping he wouldn't do something so bad.

Suddenly, he reached out and pulled me out of the wardrobe, gripping my hand tightly. Confusion flooded through me, unsure of what will happen next.
