“Master.. What happened to m—” The senior butler, Mr. Li's face was surprised as he looks at the sleeping Ms. Pandora being carried like a little bride on Priam's arms.
“Prepare a set of nightgown, and wet towels. Bring it upstairs.” Priam says, pulling Pandora's body closer to his— If it was possible, as they ascend the grand staircase.
He enters the master bedroom, and lays her down on the King sized bed. Priam mused, that if it was even possible, she looked even more fragile and small.
The bedroom opens, and the maids brought in the stuff that he asked for. It was easy, as Pandora has a closet full of clothes of any type in Priam's Mansion. He made sure of it, as Pandora has a habit of being careless.
Priam looks at the new set of clothes, and onto Pandora who was laid sprawled on his bed. Her tiny black dress stopped just on her mid thighs, while her shoe's lace stopped just below it.
Priam started to sweat. He looks towards the aircon to make sure it was on, a frown marring his features when he realizes that it is indeed on and has been for a long time now.
“Pandora.. You're bringing me so much f'ucking trouble.” He groans, reaching out a slightly shaky hand to remove her shoes first. He jolted when the unconscious woman suddenly sat upright, his eyes were so wide like a deer caught in a headlight.
“Stupid! Priam is so Stupid! I hate him so much!! As'shole! how can he get back on his promise like that?” She flails her arms wildly, Angrily muttering curse words. “F'ck him! Who needs him anyway!? I don't!! I certainly don't..”
Her expression suddenly drops, Pandora then sniffles, crystal like droplets falling from her beautiful eyes. “He promised..”
Priam's heart clenched at the sight. How could he let this beautiful girl cry? How could he let the only special person in his life shed tears? He felt like an all out asshole.
Cupping her cheeks, he wipes her tears gently. “Priam's sorry, Mon Ange. And this is Priam, apologizing sincerely for making you feel like i broke our promise.. I didn't. I will never. I won't. Any promises, spoken by me, to you are promises i would go on the ends of the Earth to keep.”
Priam held her eye contact, getting lost in her uniquely colored eyes. Pandora's tearful eyes filled with uncertainty and helplessness gnawed at his heart, so he assured her by putting his forehead against hers.
Like the old times, He chants. “I promise that i will never go back on my words. I promise i will never leave your side, as you promised you will never leave mine. We will always be eachother's family.” He affirms. “It's you and me, Mon Ange. It's you and me against the world.”
