Empress Of Dark World (Sequel To Beating Hearts)

Chapter : 8

"Why do you keep getting yourself in trouble or should I ask, why do I always find you with one, Miss Angelus, just why ?" Exasperated, Regina was clearly. Yeh you are right I tried to follow her and I ended up being noticed by one of her guards and they brought me here, I was mesmerized by the in wooden interior of the house, it gave a sense of comfort more then my own house which is loaded with the latest AI shit. 

"Ave Maria Angelus, are you even listening to me ?" she asked sternly, standing right in front of me as she blocked the view behind.

"Yes...yes, I am" I replied nodding, but then was I really listening, "Sorry, what was it again ?" and I know I was basically signing myself up for death.

"Their is this one thing you should know about me, I don't like repeating myself" she said eyeing me as I saw her eyes go a shade darker, 'You are in deep trouble' was written all over her face as she calmly walked her way back, she sat on the settee across from me with her face blank as a canvas, "get up Ave, go and stand against the wall for 30 minutes" she commanded and for a minute I thought she was joking around but that look on her face said otherwise, what was she trying to do here ? I had no clue but I did however follow her instructions, because I already am in trouble and disobeying her would only make matters worse for me.

I was standing against the wall and soon I felt her body pressed against my back, she was cold as ice "If you move, I will spank that butt until it matches the colour of an apple" she whispered against my earlobe and that sent shivers down my spine. "Do you understand ?" her voice was sharp as a razor, all I could do was nod.

"Words babe girl, words" she purred, almost giving me a heart attack, yeh almost.

"Yes Miss" I said giving her exactly what she wanted. She left me standing against the wall and she thinks it will serve me right, she is so damn wrong. What does she think I am, a kid ?

I am a fucking doctor and she is treating me like a 10 year old!!!

After just ten minutes I was so irritated that I started to have conversation with my non-existent friend, a part of my imagination whose name was Calux. I was loosing my mind this is just so ridiculous, so what if I move ? It's not like she is here, she is probably up somewhere maybe doing some grown up stuff, and I can't believe I was thinking like that, 'what the fuck do you mean by grown up stuff, you are grown up Ave!!!!'.

So the coast is clear Ave you can just go and sit on the couch for a while, she won't know because she is not here, said my stupid inner self and I can't believe I actually went for it.

I heard dogs barking outside the house, I followed the way out and I saw two dogs playing in the garden, I walked my way towards where they were. One was a golden retriever and the other was a great dan, they were big really big. Soon enough I had their attention as both of them came running towards me, a part of me was scared to death cuz both of them were really big and scary but then there was something about them very much familiar, it was as If I knew them. The trail of my thought was cut short by the duo who jumped up on me with their tails wagging as they licked my face and smelled me all over. 

I was lying down in mud puddle with the dogs. They were just so cute and cuddly and so fluffy. So I ended up playing with them for like fifteen minutes. All of a sudden the dogs stopped and that was my cue. 

"What is going on here ?" a voice sharp enough to cut through the rock came from behind me, I can just imagine her face in my head, void of emotions, blank. 

I stood up as I felt her eyes burning holes through me, "I am sorry..." I said putting my head down as I heard the dogs whimper beside me as if they were apologizing.

"You are always testing your luck in front of me young lady, always" she gave a look of disappointment, she wanted to say something but she restrained herself from doing so and then her eyes traveled down to the dogs and I saw something change in her, "they must really like you" and with that said she walked away from me and I guess this is where I am supposed to follow her.

Following her inside I actually for a second thought that she forgot about my time out, but I was so wrong.

"you need a shower first, I will deal with you disobeying me later" she said making me follow her all the way up in the guest bedroom I suppose it was, "go ahead, take a shower. I will find you something to put on" why is she being so...complex, what did I do ? beside, disobeying her.

After she left I helped myself in the shower and guess what, their was this really cool bubble machine and so their was a small change in plan, instead of shower I have decided that bathing will be a good option, I just don't want to waste so much of water while taking a shower. I know how lame my excuse was thou. however, it all gave me a déjà vu feeling, which I ignored and enjoyed my bubble bath well it was actually me playing the whole time and not cleaning up.

Regina walked in on me playing with bubbles and was I embarrassed...? 

A LOTTTTT!!!

"Jesus Christ, I should have known" she said sighing.

well now I am confused, she should have known what exactly ?

"I am sorry, I am done by the way. I am all clean" I said getting out of the bath tub, but was stopped by Regina.

"And just where do you think you are going young one ?" she asked as she sets the towel down on the counter top and walks her way towards me. "Get back in the tub Ave because all you did was playing with bubbles" she said getting all the needed stuff from the drawers.

"but I am all clean" I whined giving her my best puppy dog eyes face which she straight away ignored, how mean can a person be.

"I am not repeating it twice Ave, you disobeyed me more than once today so if I were you I wouldn't dare to take another chance testing my patience" and that said I went straight back in the tub and she helped me clean up. I was naked right in front of her and I should feel ashamed but I felt nothing like that, instead I was really very comfortable with her giving me a bath. 

I had towel wrapped around me and it was more comfortable this way, I was planning on to ask her if I could just be like this.

"NO, even before you muster up the courage to ask me that, the answer is No, I am not having you roam around....." I knew what exactly she would say next. 

"Yeh Yeh I know, You wouldn't want me roaming around in your house like this" I said catching her off guard.

"Well then, get dressed I will be waiting for you downstairs" that said she walked her way out of the room and I took this time to think of what all just happened today.

The best part is that I felt comfortable here, my heart was at ease and I wouldn't want it any other way.
