Chapter 3
I awoke in the arms of Sebastian with a towel loosely wrapped around my now cold skin, "Huh? Sebastian, how long did I sleep?" I said in a gentle voice as I was not fully awake.
"Sorry my lord I didn't mean to wake you, I believe it has been around an hour." I rubbed my eyes and yawned gently "I'm ready for some tea now, which I will have in my office."
A smile crept across Sebastian's face, normally I would never have let him carry me but as I was still under the influence of sleep I didn't particularly care.
Once dressed and fully conscious I made my way to the office as Sebastian prepared tea, I sighed as I sat in my large leather chair; this is where I spent most of my time. Within the same four walls looking out of the large window at the same scenery.
"Today we have the finest quality herbal tea imported from China, and a sweet lemon meringue tart" Sebastian chimed as he walked in, I spun my chair to face the desk as he approached with the trolley.
"That is all for now" I replied picking up the cup and taking a sip, as Sebastian turned away to leave I looked over him; his tall slender body, his raven black hair and his pale complexion. A sudden fluttering in my stomach shocked me, although it was not the first time I had felt this, I still did not fully understand it.
There was something about Sebastian that always caused me to feel this way, his demonic presence perhaps; or maybe the way his demeanour always demanded authority and respect even though he is a servant. Either way it always made my heart race and my skin stain red.
