I was sitting on the edge of the bed, all alone in my room. The sun gleamed as bright strobes of light creeped into my room, finally reaching my toes that hung off the side of the bed. The only sound was the rapid tapping of my foot as it was quiet and no one had come for me. Many things were running through my mind, all kinds of thoughts, and were nearly driving me crazy. The one thought I had on my mind was Evelyn's words from yesterday. If I should put all of my trust in Elias after everything I've been through. I asked myself, did I trust him? Could I trust Elias?

After my meeting with him yesterday, I left feeling assured that our little deal that we made would be kept a promise.  However, my assurance didn't last long as Evelyn striked me with her honesty. The things she said about Elias scared me, not putting my all and trust into him. I wasn't sure whom to trust anymore and whom to not. Did I trust him? No. Every werewolf that I have ever met kills under the presence of a human. They're dangerous, he was exceptionally dangerous as he was stronger, faster, and deadlier for what he was. I could easily be killed in my sleep by his set of sharp claws which I felt were at my throat every second of everyday under this roof that I reside in. But could I trust him? Maybe.

Elias was very persuasive and fair with the deal he made. Of course I would have to provide him the unbearable company and feed him which I did not want to endure at the moment. I remembered the way it felt, his protruding fangs deep inside of me as I heard him greedily taking my blood that gave life to the monster within him. I only felt burning pain in the flesh of my neck where he struck and left me hurting. Even when I thought about it, a shudder went through me. I would of course have to obey him even if it was unpleasing if I wanted to escape the brothel. He looked sincere when he agreed to my deal. I didn't hint any trace of any lies or hesitation in his alluring voice or eyes, it seemed he was telling the truth. Then again, maybe he was just a good actor.

Nothing nor no one had made a single sound. The only remaining sound was the tapping of my foot which I stopped once I realized no one was coming. Where was Evelyn? I got up from the bed, smoothing down the sheets before I walked to the door. Even if Elias said I couldn't leave my room with company in the house, I couldn't sit in this room confined all day, I wasn't his prisoner. Exhaling, I opened the door, one foot in front of the other as I creeped silently as possible out of my room. Was anyone even here? Perhaps it was only because I was upstairs on the second floor which was huge, might I add. Due to the mansion being incredibly big, the first floor had to have at least seven rooms. The house was a literal maze, everything being hard to find which I noticed when I tried to find the kitchen yesterday. But thankfully I remembered where to go.

Hopefully I wouldn't run into Elias as I was told to stay in my room when he had company. However, I was starting to get tired of my room, I needed to change environment, even if it meant to just go downstairs. It was more pleasing then to stay in there all alone. I hadn't seen him since yesterday and I don't think I will be seeing him tonight, maybe. Not that I cared, I was quite happy he wasn't here. Most of the times he was never around the house, when I figured he would rather prefer being confined in an office doing god knows what. I wondered, why would one need such a big house when he had no one to share it with. He was rather a lonely man. No relatives, family, or friends staying here. At least I thought.
