Keeping Three Husband In Another Life

#3 - Where Am I (3)

The clattering sound of the opened windows wakes me in the middle of the night. As I open my eyes, the rays of crimson filled the whole chamber like a flame swallow its timber. The tiny heart of mine rushed at a fast pace, telling all my limbs to move and run from this place before the flame eat me alive. 

"This is the end isn't it?"

I scream my guts out. When I realize that I don't even have the power to move by myself, I feel hopeless and readied my heart for an end, as the water dripped down my eyes, a weak cry arose from me, it was not loud, just a light snivel that no one would hear in the death of night. I never would have guessed that my time here in this world would end this fast, I want to meet that man who I call father, at least let me say goodbye. I wipe down my eyes and at that moment a hand touches me lightly on my belly.

"Are you having a bad dream, my love?"

The familiar yet foreign voice of Archduke Julius that I just met not too long ago shoo the fear that clings onto me. I reach my hand to him and he lightly lifts me up from the bed.

"Let's bath your body under the blood moon, his light will let you heal faster"

I can't grasp what he means by that, the fact that light from the moon can heal me is already out of my fucking mind, but maybe it is just proved that this is not the world I have lived in before, a moon bathing has never felt this good. I can sense the unusual energy as we get closer and closer to the balcony. When the light directly touches my skin, a strange intoxicated power sink sweetly into my vein.  It travels around and made my heart pump faster, not from fear but from ecstasy.

"What the hell!?"

The view from this place is extraordinary, everything is in the color of thick deep-toned red, almost like the color of blood, consuming this whole country without leaving a single color remain beside his. 'Such magnificent power can make any being cower under his feet, yet the moon is kind enough to share his power with all of his slaves', without me knowing from where I know it, a verse from an unknown song was sing in my heart.

"How the fuck did I know that?"

It was a strange song yet awfully familiar, the memory of this body still remains, only the soul is changed, it's like we are one being that occupies the same vessel. My small hand tucks the side of Archduke Julius' sleepwear and points the other one to the Odette settee outside so I can see the blood moon clearly.

"Haha... You used to be so scared of moon bathing"

He put me on his lap while holding my small body as he leans back comfortably on the cozy settee. the light that seeps through me feels amazing, I lean my head on his chest and try to close my eyes to sleep.

Half an hour passes by and the moon changes color to a pure unstained white. There is no inch of similarity of how this world work from mine, I mean internet work like witchcraft but the thing that happens to me up till now is really out of ordinary, not to mention that now I'm a prince. 

I was an orphan before, who likes to play by myself and read books is my only hobby, no one wants to adopt the lone-looking kid that can't charm the heart of all the couple that comes by once in a while. After officially leaving that place when I reach the age of adulthood, without any fortune to depend on, climbing the ladder of life for many years, finally having a stable life, and killed in front of my own damn house.

"Is this how God repay my endurance?" 

I thought to myself, my dream to have a family and an excellent place to live in? a new start where everything shines so brightly.
