chapter 7

I looked around the bathroom immediately I stepped into it and pushed the fact that I would still have to figure out how I was going to get out after the shower I was about to take. It was white all over, with little hints of gray and black, something I was going to have a problem adapting to since I most definitely hated black now because of this guy. I removed my nightwear, at least he had the decency to bring my clothes here and he didn’t expect me to lounge around in his clothes, ( I wouldn't mind his clothes, well we have to not care for now okay) throughout this stupid arrangement until I found a way to escape it, yes I was going to try to escape it, not because Xavier was ugly, believe me, he was far from ugly, far from handsome even he was breathtakingly beautiful, he looked like a greek god, of course, he was a demon so he looked like a greek demon right, but because Xavier was a lunatic, a psycho maniac, idiot who believed I was going to marry him after one night of meeting him. He was dreaming.

I ran the hot water then poured shampoo on my hair then started massaging it into my scalp as fast as I can, I didn’t want to be late for school, so I could tell Chloe and Zoe about. After the shower, I went to the door, and luckily for me, there was something to use to pull the door foward.

The cold air from the air conditioning unit in his bedroom hit my skin immediately I stepped out and I shivered slightly. he was not in the room, forgive me if I couldn’t resist the urge to say ‘thank god’ briefly. 

There was a pair of jeans and a blouse I could wear to school today, I did not recognize them as any of my clothes. So he was already treating me like a doll he could buy things for as if I was a charity case that couldn’t take care of herself. I was about to storm out of the room to scold him but then I thought it would not be a good idea to go out in nothing but a towel to insult a demon. So I shoved on the underwear he left out for me then pulled on the jeans and the blouse over my head. I followed my head to where I thought my captor would be, I perceived a hint of coffee and waffles. I went to where the smell was coming from and I found myself in what I assumed was the kitchen. There was a woman cooking on the stove, I am going to marry her instead, her food smells divine. I couldn’t argue with him now so that the woman won’t know he was a demon and run away, as I slipped into the chair in front of him he looked up at me.

“Glad the queen is done taking her time in the bathroom while school waits for her,” he said sarcastically and I rolled my eyes at him, he is so obnoxious.

“Who the hell are you rolling your eyes at?”

“Who else but you?” I asked

“Don’t do that again, I know I am annoying but you doing that is a sign of disrespect and I will not tolerate disrespect” Xavier pulled me harshly into his arms, but as if coming to a realization he let me go again then released me calmly, what was he going to do to me chain me I won’t mind chaining. where was that coming from? I hadn’t even had sex with anybody yet and I was already having kinky thoughts. NO KINKY THOUGHTS, YOU ARE STRICTLY VANILLA. Wait did he just say he expected me to respect him, he has to earn respect.

“Gillian, meet Winter your queen,” The woman looked at me and bowed briefly before turning back to the stove to complete breakfast, so she is a demon as well.

“Does she not she talk?”

“Not unless she needs to” 

“What, that’s sexist” I exclaimed

“Don’t raise your voice at me, it is very unnecessary, I meant to say she doesn't talk unless she absolutely has to"  I scoffed. Gillian put the plate in front of me. The divine smell hit my nose and I immediately dug in, eating like a starved dog. I was a starved dog, I had not even realized how hungry I was until the eggs hit my tongue “Be quick you are late”

“Sorry that you brought me back to the land of the living late,” I said with my mouth full of food, I saw a hint of disgust on Xavier’s face “why are you looking at me like that”

“Don’t you have manners, you are the future queen for goodness sake” oh my goodness, he is insatiable. 

“Why don’t you pick a demon to be your wife since I don’t meet your expectations”

“You will be my wife, no words about it again, am I clear. You will also become a demon” I choked

“Pardon me”

“You will become a demon as well, what don't you understand about that, hmm,” he said, he is getting so annoying right now, his words were just... UGH.

“I am a Christian,” I said

“Yeah sure” he looked at his breakfast again, he was not sure whether he wanted to eat human food or not, maybe it could burn him from his insides.

“JESUS, JESUS, JESUS” I started chanting around him, hoping that he would just go away

“What are you doing?” he asked

“Trying to cast you away to the abyss you came from” Xavier laughed lowly, it was a chuckle a deep sexy chuckle

“You can’t get rid of me so easily, I can say Jesus too nothing would happen to me,”

“How can I get rid of you then, what can kill you?”

“And why in hell will I tell you that?”

“Because I am your future wife”

“So said Delilah to Samson, get up” 

“I am not done yet”

“You have plenty of time to eat everything you want later since we are going out”

“I never agreed to that” I started protesting then he cut me off immediately

“Yes you did, you said you would get to know me so we are going out so you can get to know me”

“I don’t think I said that”

“I could have sworn I heard you say that” He looked into my eyes for a long period of time and me, being unable to look away from his magnificent gold orbs he called eyes I sat there like an idiot wasting my time while I should have been in school “Do you remember now?”

“I think I do” It was official I was never going to succeed in escaping unless I could figure out a way to stop looking into his eyes, or I could at least not be affected by them but they were so pretty.
