LILITH

A loud knock made me jolt.

I sat up on the bed and placed a hand over my chest. Did I fall asleep last night?

I must have. Well that's new. And there was no nightmare this time. Probably because I was exhausted.

I rubbed my eyes and ran a hand over my hair to smooth it down.

Another loud knock.

"Yes?" I spoke a little bit louder and cleared my throat. I held the blanket closer to me, trying to cover myself because I was still dressed in Lucian's t-shirt.

The door slowly started to open and Filipa peeked her head inside.

As soon as she saw me, she smiled and walked fully inside when I returned the smile.

"Your belongings are here Mrs. Sir told me to bring them to your room." She said and pulled the two luggages in the room. A relief immediately washed over me.

Thankfully my things were here and I can get out of this thin clothing.

"Thank you, Filipa." I nodded at her and tightened my hands around me.

"Sir is having breakfast and he requested your presence there as well." Oh...

What would he want me there as well?

At Sloane's house I usually ate breakfast with her and Frederic. Sebastian was rarely home for any of the meals. Either he was already out for breakfast or he would not even get home at all.

There must be something Lucian wants to talk about.

"Okay, I'll be there." I told her and she bowed her head one more time before exiting the room.

As soon as the door clicked shut, I let out a breath and dropped my hands.

I wandered my eyes over the room became I didn't get a chance to do that last night.

The only thing I noticed when I first got here were the big windows which now allowed enough amount of sunlight.

The bed was opposite of the windows. It was tall and covered with silky sheets. They felt heavenly against my skin.

There were only necessary things here. The walking closet, the vanity and the door that lead to the bathroom.

I swung my legs over the bed and jumped down.

I hissed as soon as my bare feet touched the cold floor and ran to the luggages. I pulled them to the closet and opened all of them. I didn't bother talking my clothes out, I just chose something to wear.

After couple of minutes of debating, I picked up something simple.

A beige sweater and wide grey dress pants. Then I walked over to the bathroom with everything I took and made my way over to the shower.

I took off his t-shirt and placed it on the cabinet.

My eyes ran over the scars on my stomach but I tried my best to ignore them.

After I showed and brushed my teeth. I dressed up and let my damp hair down. I placed my glasses over my nose and exited the bathroom and then the room after I wore a simple white sneakers.

This outfit will do.

This time, I slowly walked down the stairs. My eyes were glued to the beautiful paintings on the wall. They were with gold and warm colours.

It was like I was walking through Hogwarts hallways.

Lucian for sure had a taste when it came to decorating a house.
