He doesn't care at all and I hate him so fucking much.

"You can stop glaring and me now and eat the fucking food." I glared harder to the point where I felt my forehead aching. I began stabbing the chips with the fork hoping to irritate him but seems I've failed so far.

"Why do you care anyways? You literally dropped me into the bath with force" I mumbled but I knew he heard me. I could feel his gaze on my face. I shifted uncomfortably, the familiar feeling of fear creeping into my body. This isn't normal.

I sighed and dropped my fork. "Why am I here my lord?" A small smile taking over my features.

"Ace! Fucking call me Ace!" I smiled to myself. Why am I here Ace?

He stood up ever so graciously. "Ask mother when she gets here, your fucking fear is getting on my damn nerves" He strolled out of the room leaving me with jumbled emotions.

"that went well" I said to the empty room while trying to soothe the uncomfortable ache in my chest.

I ate a bit of my chips and scrambled eggs since I wasn't feeling up to fainting again. I decided to dress and check the castle.

Descending the old spiral staircase I took note of the direction I'm taking this time around, not wanting the events from two days ago to repeat itself.

I bumped into a hard wall. Great and I thought I was looking. I groaned and massaged my forehead. "Just great" I murmured.

"You know it's rude to run into someone and not apologize" A deep voice said. So it wasn't a wall. I jerked my head so suddenly I heard a smack. It was when I felt the pain I realized I hit jaw. I didn't realize he was that close.

I rubbed my head in embarrassment. "I-i am so s-sorry, I d-didn't s-see you there" I said embarrassing myself more by stuttering.

A small smile tugged on his lips. That smile literally got my heart racing.

"It's okay, I should apologize too. I'm Jake by the way, Ace older brother." He said bringing his hands out for me to shake. I did. I shivered from how cold his hands are. Really are his whole family this cold?

"I'm Blake. The unfortunate soul that gets to spend a month at this terrifying castle. Lucky me" I couldn't help the dry tone in my voice. In truth, I don't know what I feel or what I'm feeling.

"I don't think it's that bad Blake" I began shaking my head to protest but got interrupted. "Why don't I show you around?"

I looked around and looked back at him. Hesitating a bit I nodded I don't know if he could be trusted cause everyone in this castle seems weird. He motioned for me to follow him with a smile.

"This stairway leads to the royals room which includes I am my brothers" He said pointing to the stairway by the left. "That stairway leads to the slaves rooms." I furrowed my brows in confusion. Slaves? I opened my mouth to ask but saw the old stairs that lead me to the dungeon.

"Jake! Where does that lead to?" I asked feigning ignorance. He frowned a bit before shaking his head. "You should never go near there,that stairway leads to somewhere dangerous" He seriously said.

"Then why is it out in the open?"

"To lure of course. Curiosity did kill the cat after all." He gave me a smug smile and walked pass me, leaving me to trail behind.
This place is so fucking wrong.

"This is the gym" His voice held excitement. I looked around in awe, indeed it is a gym. "This place have a gym?!! I gasped. Jake chuckled beside me.

" Of course there's a gym here. Why are you surprised?" I gave him a none believing look.

"Dude have you seen this place?! He just chuckled and shook his head muttering 'unbelievable' as we walked to next room. Turns out its a music room. I jumped in excitement.

" You look like a kid that have been given his best candy" I rolled my eyes " This actually is my candy" I said making my way to the grand piano.

"You play?" He asked, his cold blue eyes filled with curiosity and excitement that I'm sure matches mine. I nodded my head and pressed a key. The tone immediately calming me down.

"Play something for me" His voice soft against my ear making me shiver which is surprisingly pleasurable. Jake doesn't have that darkness surrounding him, doesn't have that aura which Ace has that always sends my heart racing and my body shivering in fear. Jake has this calmness around him. He feels familiar.

I nodded my head, closing my eyes I began playing a familiar tone. My whole body relaxes, my fingers going over the keys. I could feel Jakes eyes on me and coldness of his body close to mine causing goosebumps on my skin but I don't mind. Lost in the tone, I began singing, allowing myself to get lost in the moment. I finished with a light hum.

I opened my eyes slowly, nervous of Jakes reaction. He was looking at me with a serious expression but his cold eyes seems to soften a bit. His eyes that somehow reminds me of Ace. Ace again, everything is always about Ace this days with me. I forcefully shoved him at the back of my mind.

Jakes face keeps getting closer and I felt myself leaning over. It feels wrongs, feels like I'm betraying Ace and I don't even know why but I couldn't pull back. Not when those blue eyes are looking at me like that.

Suddenly he wasn't in front of me anymore, I turned toward the loud bang that echoed in the room only to see Ace holding Jake on the neck, his expression frighteningly calm. He leaned over and whispered in his brothers ear with a voice that sends a shiver down my spine.

"Try that again and you are dead!"
