An Unlikely Companion

Chapter 5

"Ummm, I don't know how to do this, but if your listening come here." I say as I try to summon Crowley. "Crowley?"

"Hello, darling." Said a voice from behind me. I jumped.

"I've made my choice and my choice is you." I say

"Alice, sweet Alice. You've made a good choice and a powerful acquaintance."

"Now what?" I ask

"Now this." He took my hand and next thing I know we're at a very lavish house.

"Welcome to your new home, love." said Crowley

I gaze in awe at the sight of the room. There's an elegant fire place and mantel in the living room with a flat screen tv above it. There's a coffee table with a glossy finish and a couch and two expensive looking chairs. The walls are painted a plum colour.

"Let me show you to your room." said Crowley. I nod and follow him up a spiral staircase. What I see is beautiful. There's a queen size bed with four post at each corner supporting a canopy and a elaborately carved head bored. The sheets were black with a crimson red comforter. The walls were also crimson red. There were two night stands that I could've sworn were made from obsidian.

"Are those--"

"Obsidian? Yes, darling, they are."

The dresser apparently was also made of obsidian. And in the middle of the ceiling was a smoky grey chandelier.

"This is beautiful." I say awestruck.

"I'm glad you like it. Feel free to wonder about the house. Oh, and dinner will be ready at 6:00." He kissed my forehead and then walked out.

"I think a nice nap will be very appreciated." I think half a loud.
