𝐇𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐨𝐥𝐝: Lady Dimitrescu x Female Reader [COMPLETED]

⋆ Chapter 30: A Forbidden Bittersweet Gaze

you started doing your chores for today which was washing the curtains in each room of the dimitrescu's which was a hell of a struggle because the ceiling was very high in each room. expect Cassandra's because she didn't have curtains in her room because her room was in a dungeon where no light source has seen...

"Ah come on! come on!" you were standing on your tip toes on the ladder to reach the curtain ring that was on the rail.

"Ughh!" you groaned out and stretched your arm as further as you possibly could.

"A..Almost..." you said to yourself as you almost reached it.

THUD

"AHH SHIT!" you groaned to yourself as you hold your arm that hit the metal ladder as you tried to reach the ring on the rail, you sat on the ground beside the ladder... yelping to yourself and groaning from frustration and pain you look at your arm and a big cut and a piece of your dress on your arm was torned.

"I just got this damn dress today" you stood up with a slight struggle and went to Bela's bathroom, you opened the door and switched on the light you walked over the sink and washed the cut up with water you watched the wound in the mirror there will only some bruising.

you hesitated to open any drawers from her bathroom because you didn't want to just sneak around and watch the stuff she has but you wanted to sew up the torned up sleeve on your arm. you didn't want Alcina to know about this so you had to sew it up now.

you carefully opened a drawer slowly looking if there was a sew-kit somewhere in the drawer there was only some cotton pads, multiple charcoal toothpaste stocks nothing much. you opened the drawer beneath it and there make-up in a small black basket... black eye shadow, black lipstick, mascara nothing that would help you sew the sleeve. you sighed and turned around looking for any more drawers you walked over to a cupboard opening it...

"What are you searching for, pretty?"

"AAAH!" you flinched and screamed when out of sudden Bela's was voice was in your ear whispering. she covered your mouth with her gloved hand she shushed you and turned you around. you gulped and was genuinely scared because she caught you sneaking around her private bathroom...

"Sshh sshh, it's only me sweetie"
she said and smiled, she examined your face that was pale she looked down to your arm and back at you.

"Are you in pain?" she asked and looked in your eyes, her eyes were sparkling and her breathing was heavier as she smelled your blood.

"I was looking for a sewing kit... I'm sorry for invading your privacy won't happen again" You bowed to her showing your apology with respect.

she giggled and put both of her hands on your cheeks making you look up as you bowed to her she smiled and walked to a another drawing grabbing a black sewing kit. she turned around and gestured you to follow her to her bedroom. you switched the light off and walked behind her she sat you on her bed and placed the sewing kit beside you on the bed she turned around and walked to her cupboard in her room she had a bandage and chem fluid in her hands.

she walked towards you and sat beside you on the bed she yanked her heels off and sat on the bed with her legs crossed.

you sighed and watched as she put the liquid on a small black cloth...

"Don't tell your mother please" you said and looked into her eyes

"Tell what?"

"This... I don't want her to know that I accidentally torn my new outfit and I just got it today.." you closed your eyes and looked up.

"I won't tell her, Y/N" she reassured "I need you to take off your sleeve so I can put a bandage around it" she said and looked at you.

you opened your eyes and looked at her you nodded she helped you unzip your dress and pull out your arm from the long sleeve, she removed your white soft glove and patted the liquid on your cut it didn't hurt at all only a small sting. she grabbed the bandage and wrapped it around your arm, you knew and saw her looking at your scars on your shoulders and side. you massaged your forehead and sighed deeply. you put your arm back into your sleeve and she helps you zip the dress back on you grabbed your glove and fidgeted with it as she sew up your dress in silence. you rubbed the small golden heart with your thumb and smiled thinking about Alcina.
