Padgett Eve

"You." Sebestian said shocking me. Did I actually said that aloud? And even if I did, what have I have done that I deserved to be killed for that? All sorts of questions were rushing through my mind.

"Wh-what?" I said unsure of what he exactly ment by 'you'.

"I said you." He again said still resting his forehead against mine.

"M-me, what?" I asked again and I could see him getting angry now.

"I said that, you seriously need to stop disobeying me." He said, and even though it was something I should be afraid of because Sebestian was angry and dead serious, not like he's never not. I was kind of relieved to hear what he actually meant instead of what I thought he really meant. I let out a relieved sigh which unfortunately didn't go unnoticed by Sebestian.

"What did you think?" He asked making me gulp, he pulled his head away so now he was making an eye contact which didn't fail to make me nervous and scared of him. Again.

"Who w-was h-he here to k-kill?" I asked I knew there was no point in lying to this human lie detector sitting right infront of me. My question took Sebestian for shock, which was quickly covered with an emotionless face. He just stared at me, which he does a lot lately.

"Take a shower we need to leave." Was all he said and picked me up only to drop me in the bathroom. Before I could question him again he left. I just sighed and walked towards the closet to fetch my clothes. Why do I even try when I know he will only do ehat he wants?

I stripped from my clothes which had blood and stood beneath the hot water. The water was relaxing, easing my mind, it felt good on my skin. I scrubbed my skin hard, wanting to remove the traces of blood, I knew I didn't smell of blood but my mind continuosly gaveme that smell. Everytime I relaxed a bit that sick smell came again, and it was all psychological. I turned the shower off and stepped out to wearing my clothes. I wore a black sweater dress. It was plain but beautiful and had a turtle neck. It reached my thighs which was fine, walking out to the closet I paired it with a pair of ankle-lenght velvet black boots. The good thing about these boots were that they were comfortable and didn't have that much of a high heel.

I was in the bathroom, infront of the mirror drying my hair when Sebestian came out of the shower cubical. What was this man, a ghost now? How come he was here showering and I couldn't notice it or was I too busy in hurrying up? I blushed realising that I came in while he was showering and his broad shoulders and that perfect chest weren't helping either as they were on display, he wore a towel which hung low on his hips. He came towards the mirror and stood besides me, trying to fix his damp but super soft and hot hair. Since my hair were done I wanted to leave but stopped when I noticed the cuts he had. He had cuts on his bicep and some on his shoulders and chest. They looked painful but he didn't really mind them. I wanted to ignore it, but I couldn't he didn't even bother to put an ointment on them. 'Don't care, just walk away. Renenber he is a monster' was something I kept vhanting to myself, mentally, but I failed miserably. I found myself reaching out for the first-aid box, I last saw in the cabinet, hoping it was still there and thankfully it was. I took a deep breath and prepared for my next action, preparing myself for an angry and raging Sebestian but it never came. I carefully placed my shaky hand on his bicep, which made his actions stop he just looked at me raising his eyebrows, questioning my actions.

"You're hurt." Was all I said stepped closer to him, dipping the cotton in the disinfecting liquid and softly dabbing it on the cuts on his biceps, Sebestian froze by my actions. He didn't rect until he pulled me infront of him, my back touching the basin slab, trapping me between him and the basin slab. I still continued my actions till he suddenly picked me up and placed me on the wode empty area besides the basin on the basin slab. I tried to glare at him but he just smirked and I returned to my actions but now to his shoulder. He was close to me, very close. He had on of his wrapoed around my waist and other was cupping my cheek, his thumb caressing my cheek. I decided to give him no reaction but he still continued his actions until I was done. I was done and wanted to get off the slab but he still had his hold on me and he gave me no soace as now he was standing between my legs and had both his arms around my waist, pulling me more close to him if possible. I just looked up at him wanting him to let me go.

"Dry my hair for me." He said smirked again making me look at him in disbelief. Seriously? He wanted me to dry his hair? Of how much I wanted to say no to him,slap him and then run off away from him, so far that he can never find me. But I knew better than to disobey him, or try and run away from him. So I simply did what he said and picked up the hair dryer, he was clearly happy to see that I am obeying him. I turned the dryer on and the hot air hit his hair making it impossible for me to keep my fingers to myself. Raising up my other hand towards his hair, I used my fingers to straighten his locks while I positioned the hair dryer there. His hair was soft and skmething I couldn't get enough of. He descended hos head towards my crook lf my neck, resting it there, I continued drying the hair at the back of head. His hair was dried, but I still had my fingers in them, caressing it. Could he seriously change? I asked myself, suprised as the thought came all of a sudden. The answer.... it was something I wasn't sure of, he keeps on going back and forth. The talk we had in the bed the other night and moments like we had now, like normal people do are somethings giving me hope of the humanity left in him, but when I remember him shooting Cole, nearly beating the man to death, forcing me, and hiding things from me were something which just gave me a ton of fear, a feeling that he is the monster that can never change.

He pulled away and pecked my lips, he thanked me and left. Leaving me in confusion and questions, which I reckon would have no answers yet. Sighing I got down the slab, fixing my dress and my hair, I let my hair open vecaise I loved it when they reached till my waist. As I left the bathroom, I saw Sebestian putting his watch on, he was wearing a black suit with a white shirt which had first two buttons opened up doing nothing but just making him look more handsome than he already was. He looked towards me and I had this self-conscious feeling all of a sudden becaise of his intense stare. He walked towards me and took a hold of my hand bringing me close to him, apart from his presence his cologne was intoxicating me. He led us out of the bedroom and walked down the hallways. I was right now sitting in the car besides Sebestian. I couldn't believe it I was finally going out of the mansion.

I felt a rush of fresh air and refreshing feeling embraced me once I passed the gates of the mansion that were always locked for me. I looked at the city in awe as we moved in the car. I was staring at the city with my wide eyes and a small smile rested on my lips as I stared at the city. I was so happy for me to see the streets instead of those usual dark hallways and those high ceilings. I was happy to see various other vehicles and people instead of the usual staff Sebestian had. I was busy admiring the city when I heard a chuckle. It came from Sebestian and he was just staring at me, amused at my reaction.

"You're happy to see the city?" He asked me like I was a child. But I didn't really mind hin and his questions becaise I didn't want to miss the view, I wasn't sure when I will be it next. I just nodded still looking out when I noticed the airport come into view. The car stopped and we entered, all the while Sebestian kept a firm hold on my waist. Strange thing I noticed was that the airport was empty. I've been to the airport a few times with dad, he sometimes made me visit parties with him. Sebestian noticed my frown and me looking for other person except Sebestian's security team.

"I rented the airport, no one is here except the staff." He said and continued walking towards the big plane. He said it like it was so usual of him to rent it out, but it wasn't this man must be having some serious issues. We were walking towards the private jet. His private jet to be more precise since it had 'Knight' written on it. We entered the plane and it was classy, all his things screamed richness and this thing did the same, it was not black, thankfully. It had eight comfortable chairs, four on each side of the aisle, two each other. The plane was broad enough to make this sitting arrangement look beautiful and not closely packed. Senestian took my hand guiding me to the seat, he told me to sit down on the window seat while he sat besides me. Once seated he nodded to the guy who was standing by the door. The guy opened the door and got in. After a few minutes there was the announcement about the plane taking off and we should buckle our seatbelts. Sebestian already did his and was doing mine when the announcement was happening, no matter how much I told him that I could do it, he still did it ignoring me. Once done, I looked out of the window to sense the plane moving, it was slow at first but it became faster and then it swiftly took off. I clutched Sebestian's hand while the plane took off, he just chuckled and slightly shook his head making me feel more embarresed than I already was.

After a few minutes of the flight, I heard a high pitched voice saying, "Anything you'd like to have, Mr. Knight?" That was the airhostess. She wore her uniform, which was supposed to be decent, but she didn't like it that way as she had the first few buttons of her shirt open, exposing her cleavage, and her face was caked with make-up she gave Sebestian a very seductive smile and me a very ugly glare, something I ignored. Sebestian ordered a whiskey for himself and another drink for me. She just walked away not before oassing me another glare.

She came back with the drinks and Sebestian was now annoyed by how she was just standing there. "What are you standing here for? Get out." Sebestian spat harshly making the poor girl back away and leave in fear, I felt bad for her. I just sipped on my drink, it was damn nice. It was lemon based as it had perfect mix of lemon and sugar as an aftertaste and had very little or I think no alcohol. Sebestian worked on his laptop, typing something sometime reviews his shares, he was clearly busy while he took occassional sips of his drink. I just looked out of the window, enjoying the clouds, enjoying the comfortable silence we both shared. I was tired, and threw my head backwards as I closed my eyes but opened it in shock when I felt Sebestian olace my head on his shoulder. "Stay." Was all he said and I stayed in that position until I woke up.

I woke up, yawning. I was way more comfortable and warm than the position I slept in. That's the time that I realise that my face was in Sebestian's neck while I was over him. His seat was streached up so he had his legs stretched infront and I was on his lap, my legs wrapped around his waist and my face in his neck, and a blanket around us. He was still typing on his laptop and seemed focused. I slowly pulled my face out of his neck only to face him, too close.

"You slept well?" He asked diverting his attifrom his laptop to me. I just nodded and blushed looking down.

"Yeah, I could tell that. You slept for 2 hours straight and didn't even wake up when I shifted you." He said smirking while I blushed more.

"How much more is the flight for?" I asked wondering if I really slept for 2 hours.

"1 and a half." He said glancing at his watch. I nodded and tried to get back to my original place, his legs would be paining if I slept for 2 hours here. I failed becaise Sebestian's hold on me wasn't letting me anywhere.

"What do you think you're doing?" He said angrily.

"I w-want to sit there." I said pointing at my previous seat.

"No." Was all he said, sternly. And returned to his work. He kept typing on his laptop and sipping his whiskey, which I guess was the third glass. He kept working while I was still on his lap, his lap was way too more comfortable compared to the seat, but I don't think his legs would be fine after having me on them for so long.

It been like 45 minutes since I have been in that position, I just got more comfortable if possible and Sebestian was still typing, he seemed busy. My face was in his neck and my legs and arms were around his waist, I was stuck to him and neither of us objected that. His cologne was intoxicating me, like it always does. He finally closed his laptop and rested his head on the headboard of his seat, he must be really stressed. I sighed as I pushed myself apart from him, now I was sitting on his comfortable lap and we were facing each other. His head was still thrown back as I now had my hands on his chest. I had to push down the strong urge to brush my hands on his perfect face.

"I have a gift for you" He said reaching out for his pocket. He took out a space-grey phone. He handed it to me and said that it was for me and I couldn't believe it, it was a simple thing but it meant so much to me, I could finally contact someone to help me.

Will I be able to do that? Do I really want to do that?
