I think... I'm in love with my mistress

Chapter 32

Tomoe P.O.V

It's been a week since I've visited (Y/n), but the memory is still clear in my head.

The way her face contorted in disgust and voice was low.

The way her eyes looked dreary and cold as she glared at me.

The way she shifted away from me like I was a freak, like I was some type of monster.

Who put those stupid thoughts in her head?

I huffed and threw myself onto the bed, running a hand through my silvery locks.

The setting sunlight beamed through the window, gracing over my face and causing me to wince.

I cover my eyes with the back of my hand, letting out a prolonged sigh.

"Why can't I just have (Y/n) back?"

I muttered.

"Because you don't deserve her."

A harsh voice spoke, sounding almost amused. I jolt upwards, my eyes scanning the room for the source of the cold voice.

Violet eyes meet blazing red ones, a cold snarl formed on my lips as past memories flood my mind, hazy faces and slurring words began to form into broken scenes.

I vexatiously glare at the tall, lanky boy who stood leaning against the windowpane, his smirking face shadowed by the afternoon sunlight.

"Vivid red eyes. Menacing vibe. Well if it isn't Akura ou, it's been a while. So you decided to go for a new look?"

The boy's lips twitched into a shit-eating smirk, his eyes narrowing on me.

"Well, I wouldn't say I decided, I was more forced to–you still look the same as always, with your tacky clothes and silvery hair, why you haven't changed at all."

He growled out, his voice sounding almost coy.

It's been ages since I've seen Akura ou, and I thought he died years and years ago–but here he is now, standing in my bedroom, looking as shifty as ever.

"I heard that your old mistress–what was her name?. . . Oh Nanami–I heard she left you and you found a replacement, you can't seem to keep a mistress can you?"

He smirked as he pushed himself off the windowpane and trudged to sit on the bed beside me, causing me to wince.

I try my hardest to hide the resentful tone that was masking my voice.

"Why have you come here? Was there something you needed?"

I calmly asked, not wanting to start any trouble. Akura ou leans his elbows on his thighs and rests his chin on top of his pale intertwined fingers.

"I just wanted to check up on you, I've heard that your newest Mistress was in a terrible accident."

This instantly perked my ear.

How does he know about this? Unless. . .

My eyes widen and I clenched my hands.

"Your the one who put all that nonsense into her head about me, didn't you. . . "

He didn't answer, his smirk just grew bigger.

"DIDN'T YOU!! YOU FILTHY LITTLE RAT!"

My voice was brittle and my eyes narrowed in seething hate and anger. I jolted up and grasped his shirt, jerking him towards me. He was still smirking like the vile creature he is.

"HOW DARE TOU PUT THIS SHIT INTO HER HEAD!! SHE DOESN'T EVEN TRUST ME ANYMORE BECAUSE OF YOU AND YOUR SHIFTY LITTLE WORDS!!!"

I felt like crying, but that would show him that I'm weak, and I'm not weak. A lump in my throat started to form and my eyebrows furrowed.

"How dare you. . .why would you do that?"

My hands loosen as my body begins to feel slumped and anguished.

What have I done to deserve this from him???

"Why? Are you seriously asking me why?!?!!!"

Now Akura ou was getting enraged, his hand quickly seized my arm and pulled my hands off of him, a low snarl gracing his face.

"Your a traitor!!!! You deserve everything that's happened to you!!!"

I cocked my head.

"What?!"

Akura ou just huffed and rolled his eyes.

"You left me for some stupid peasant girl!!!! A human girl!!!! And I nearly died because of your foolish decision! . .you left me in my time of need. . ."

Akura ou shoves me, causing me to nearly trip. He stands up and turns his back to me, facing the window. The sun had now nearly disappeared behind the horizon, it's orange and red ombré light shining in through the squared glass.

"I lost everything I ever had. . . And now it's your time to loose everything you've ever loved, NOW YOU'LL SEE HOW I FELT!"

Akura ou smashes the window with his bare fist, the sound echoing through my eardrums. I guard my face from the impact of the shards of glass, but when I look up again he's gone.

He will pay for this, I will make sure that (Y/n) remembers me. He can throw whatever he wants at me, but I will prevail.

Akura ou's P.O.V

As I trek my way down the stone stairs I let out a low chuckle.

He took that better than I thought. I would have suspected him to attack but he kept his demeanour surprisingly calm.

I smirked and entered the busy streets.

The sun had fallen to make way to the moon, the sky was clouded by light buffs of white but some stars were still visible. I let out a prolonged sigh, a white cloud exiting my mouth.

This will be interesting. . .
