Chapter 15 - A supposed warm meeting

After some time I heard a knock on the door. Come in I said. The door opened slowly and a maid entered. She held a tray with some hot and steaming bowl of porridge and a glass of water. She bowed at me and handed me the meal politely which requesting me to finish it as it would help me to recover my energy. Without saying much I started eating and all the time I only was thinking about him. But Emily also had a point but my heart was inclined towards him. Nevertheless I finished eating and went to bed early.

Haaa I yawn. I had woken up early in the morning and looked out through the window and the most superficial view greeted me. The birds were flying, the bright sun, the lush mawn and the sweating and training face of Michael. What Michael???? I ran towards the window and shouted towards Michael who was still in training with his sword. And boi was he handsome. His white shirt was drenched with his sweat and I could see his abs although not clearly. He was a real eye candy with that captivating Ruby like red eyes and ink like black hair almost jumping from dark blue and black.

He smiled at me warmly and I was Inches away from having fainted. I waved back and headed inside only to peep in and secretly see him training.

The maid from yesterday brought me my food and it was a luxurious meal and I ate it to my hearts content. I wanted to ask about Michael so that I could ask him about how to go back and also look at him more but I knew better that he was on a higher position. I think the maid noticed my tensed face that she told that Michael was the owner of the mansion and just like me there were other six girls who lived in this place.

I didn't care about it much but I knew a silent war was happening among the woman and I was going to be engulfed by it. I also knew that I was going to participate in it.

It was noon. A servant came and requested me to go for the dinner and I followed as it was a meeting in the guise of dinner and probably a celebratory event for me.

I walked passed many rooms and each side was furnished with portraits and were decorated with vases and other things.

At last at one end of the hall I reached a magnificent room with massive doors and exquisite designs made with gold. A servant announced my arrival.

The door opened and for a moment my eyes shut tightly due to the light from the room and as I opened them what lay before me was a grand hall filled with dazzling chandeliers and statues of great craftsmanship along with a great table with food filled to the brim and with in the table there sat eight people who were emanating such pressure from just sitting so far away that I had a hard time breathing.
