The maidservants escorted me to the study where Samael was waiting for me. On our way, I could not help but fiddle my fingers against each other.
Every step we took, it produced a distinct sound. A sound that jeopardized the rhythm of my pulse. Each step meant I'm coming close to the uncertainty of what's ahead.
I clenched my teeth, tightening my jaw. I glanced at the maidservant's back, who's walking before me.
"We're here, My Lady." Soon, the maidservant halted and faced me.
"His Lordship is inside."
She added politely. I nodded as I watched her make a way for me.
Standing in front of the door, I took a deep breath and breathed out through my mouth. For a moment, I closed my eyes as I prepared my heart.
When I opened my eyes, I unhesitatingly pushed the door open and went in.
