The Immortal's Merman

🔱Chapter 16🔱

Sarawat carried Tine in a bridal style when they reached home, he carefully carried him him into the residence then stopped half way"Where should I take him, I don't know his room and asking the maids will make them grow suspicious, because I know Luke trained each and every one of them here, cause they might be able to detect if something is abnormal " Sarawat thought for a while before he decided to take him to Luke's room.

He gently placed Tine on the bed, then carefully removing his shoes and then socks then removing his outer robe leaving the rest behind. He pulled the blanket and covered Tine's body up to his neck leaving his head for breathing.  Sarawat noticed how cute he looked wrapped up in those thick blankets, as he brushed Tine's hair away from his face Sarawat's heart started to beat as he remembered what happened earlier in the carriage they were in. Sarawat touched his lips remembering the kiss earlier"we didn't kiss, it's just a brush of the lips there's nothing else" he thought to himself as he shrugged it off but his heart didn't do the same as his mind as it was beating and pounding like it's threatening to burst out of its ribcage.

"What's wrong with my heart, is it supposed to be at this way, just for a kiss...argh it wasn't a kiss Sarawat and get yourself out of here" he screamed at himself in his mind.

He stood up and walked towards the door then stopped and looked back at Tine, the same feeling came to him again and his heart pounded again"argh..I just have to speed things up cause there's not much time for me, by the end of this month you will fall for me Tine whatever happens after that I don't care" he thought angrily to himself and magically teleported back to his residence.

Tine's pov

I woke up to a bird chirping happily on a tree besides a window in the room I was in. I sat up on the bed and look around the room, finding out it was Luke's room.

"Why did he bring me here, doesn't he know where my room is" I asked no one in particular. I moved to the edge of the bed and got up removing the blankets around me. I saw my shoes not far from the bed, I walked over to it and wore them. I looked around the room, and it felt lonely to me but I don't know why.

"It feels like Luke hasn't been in his room for a while now, but it doesn't feel like a while, it feels there's more to it" I said to myself but shrugged it off

"Since he's not always around I think that's how it should be" I said and carefully walked around the room looking at things, like his work and the rest of them.

I walked to his study room, then to his table tracing my hands on them imaging how handsome he would look when ever he sat there with a book looking all serious.

"Gosh what's wrong with you, I thought you don't like him again" I mentally shouted at myself and then sighed. I walked around where he stores his books and picked one to read but all the books looked so serious that I can't even understand anything, I quickly kept them where they belong and made my way out then stopped "where is he's armour, did he go to war" his armour wasn't where it should be and his sword too.

"If he did go to war he would have told me before going, then that means he didn't or maybe he relocated it elsewhere in his room" I said to myself and made my way out of his room to not get too curious about everything and let things be. I walked through the passage way leading myself back to my room.

Some of the maids that saw me come out of Luke's room were looking at me weirdly and too whispering among themselves, I shrugged it off and kept on walking with my hands at my back humming a song audible only to me, what can you expect from maids they may look for any possible thing or reason to talk about you.

I made a turn at a passage way again which leads straight to my room"argh why does Luke's residence has to be this big, I'm tired of walking" I said to myself but then bumped into someone a girl maybe"Tine" she called as she stood up from the ground"oh it's you Kwan" I said smiling but she just stared at me like I just committed an adultery "your clothes" she said still looking at me that way.

I looked at her confused"what happened to my clothes" I asked as I looked down at myself and my eyes widened with shock."who took off my outer clothes" I screamed in my thoughts and the problem here was that, the cloths I had on are transparent, one could see my body it on a single glance not even bothering to look twice to be sure.

"You came out looking like that from the deity's room" she said, her voice shaking a little or more like stopping herself from screaming

"Kwan it's not what you think" I told her, she just nodded and walked away literally with a face of don't scream.

"Wait Kwan!" She stopped and turned back at me"Do you happen to see Ani anywhere since" I asked her but she shook her head"no I haven't seen her for a long time now" she said and I nodded, she walked away even faster this time around.

"Probably going to gossip with her friends, now they must have all think I'm having an affair with their third deity" I said looking down at my clothes one more time.

"Imagine coming out of his room wearing see through clothes, if it was me I'd think the same..what even made me to wear this dress in the first place. It must have been when I was in a hurry yesterday that I wore them and didn't even care to look at what I was wearing.. silly me, why did I even fell asleep then" I said to myself and hurriedly ran to my room to avoid more stares from the maids and guards passing by. I entered my room and ran to the vanity mirror in my room and gasped"Tine what's wrong with you, what came to your mind to wear such a thing in the first place " I argued in my mind then said out loud.

"Well it was covered by another robe, and I was in a hurry too that time when I was changing"

"This is all Luke's fault!" I screamed out loud to myself.
