I find myself in a beautiful garden. The first thing I think is that my heart feels a lot more calm. I feel more control over my emotions, and self-consciousness. I don't know where this is. It's surrounded by a beautiful glass cage, and delicate looking plants. I gaze around the place. There's a fountain in the middle of it, and I reckon the garden to be at least the size of a mansion already. I stand up, and wipe the dirt from falling, off my pants.
'Does my hand look slimmer?' I thought to myself.
It was probably shock that is giving me weird feelings. I walk around the place, on a stone pathway. And eventually I found a big steel door connected to the glass cage surrounding the place. I try opening it, but it won't budge.
'The handle is already my entire body, and the door is way too large to try to force open. I could also try breaking the glass, but that would probably injure me instead.' I think to myself.
"Hey, what are you doing!" A female voice yells at me from behind. 'Finally! A person.'
"I don't know where I am." I told her without looking back.
"Turn around and show me your face." She told me.
I felt a sharp feeling near my chest. Something was definitely poking me. 'It felt like a steel rod?' I turn around and I tell her while closing my eyes;
"I really don't know where I am. I suddenly found myself in this place after getting sucked into a black orb. I know it sounds entirely skeptical bu-" I suddenly stop my sentence after seeing her face.
She's really gorgeous. She's blonde, looks like a noble, and has metallic plated armor while wielding a spear. Her hair is silky, lips pink, and eyes big and round. Her face is completely flushed red, and she dropped her spear after seeing me.
I wave my hand in front of her, "Hello? You there?" I say to her face.
She's completely in shock while blushing. I don't know what is going on. She finally snapped back to consciousness after a little bit,
"Huh? Huh- Oh.. Uhm.. I'm sorry for startling you. I'm Eliza Eva. And right now, you're in the Garden of Eva." She says while still red.
"Thank you. Can I also possibly like, get out of here?" I asked.
"NO! YOU CAN'T! Please.. I need you to pretend to be my fiance." Eliza yelled, but then quietly begged.
'What? How the hell did I go from being on Earth to pretending to be a woman's fiance?' I thought.
"Not until I hear why." I said while confused.
"Well, my family wants me to marry a duke. But the duke is a psychopath and is super ugly. I don't want to marry him, but my family has to force me to; because he is the duke. However, I can get married to someone else if I get a fiance." Eliza told me while sounding slightly sad.
Confused as all living hell, I said "Fine, I guess I will."
I look down in confusion and realize something.
'Wait.. When did I lose this much weight...?' I look at my hands and body, and apparently I am super skinny. And I'm wearing clothes that fit me perfectly. 'Where did I get these clothes?'
I'm skinny, and I have fine toned muscles, I can see my muscles decently through my short-sleeved, black and white butler suit. I get dragged and yanked on her by the arm very roughly, but I don't budge the slightest, until I follow her.
"Okay, now come follow me!" She drags me while I follow her towards a small palace. There lays a castle residing between 2 walls. We quickly run towards the castle and I think, 'This takes way too long, might as well make it faster.'
I pick her up and put her on my back and start sprinting it. 'Was I this fast?' I sprint so fast, everyone watching us nearby was surprised. After finally getting inside the palace, I meet plenty of faces shocked. Maids would drop plates occasionally when I passed by, carrying Eliza.
"We're here! Put me down now." She says.
We finally arrive in a red carpet, and stairs at the top where a man with a crown resides. He has red hair, and a very handsome face. He's also wearing very luxurious clothes, and sitting on the throne with a unfazed face. Although his hands are shaking. He also appears to be in his mid-40s.
"My daughter, it seems you actually found a fiance? Or is that the most expensive butler that you found?" The man on the throne asks, in a cold menacing voice.
"Yes Father! This is my fiance! Introduce yourself." Eliza stated happily.
As her father looked at me, I introduced myself: "I am Jay Veil, I am 17 and I am your daughter Eliza's Fiance." I formally introduce myself, while humbly bowing.
Her father looks at me, as if he's analyzing me, then lets me go;
"Fine, you may leave now." We start walking, but then "Before you leave, fix up that attire of yours, and put on something luxurious, so I don't get scolded." He said.
That was cold of him, but I couldn't care less. Me and Eliza make our way to her room.
I look into the mirror and think, 'Am I dreaming? Is this me?' I wipe my eyes, and look at the mirror once more. All I see is a dark haired man, with a incredibly handsome face that could win over any girl at will. The face was not too manly, but not too childlike. It was in-between, and it was super handsome at that. Eyes that seemed to give the chills of the cold moon, and mouth that could slip you into a trance.
'I am not freaking out somehow, even when I saw myself like this. Must be the feeling I felt when I first got here.' I thought to myself, shockingly calm.
"Here, put your clothes on immediately, we have a ball to attend." Eliza said, blushing red, with a worried face.
"Alright." I responded.
I put on the luxurious clothes. They were really comfortable. I looked into the mirror once more. 'These clothes really suit me.' I thought.
***
Moments later, me and Eliza are at the entrance of the ball. She is wrapping her arm around mine to make it clear that I am her fiance. I couldn't help but notice how expensive and gigantic the ballroom looked. I headed inside with Eliza.
"Make sure to keep your act up." Eliza whispered to me.
I kept hearing girls whispering about me. I don't know what it is, but I hope it isn't any bad rumors. Suddenly, a beautiful red haired woman walks in,
"My my, our princess Eliza Eva, has finally arrived. By the way, who is this rather handsome fellow. Is he your-" Eliza cut her off "Yes, he's my fiance."
Everyone at the ballroom was visually shocked, and it showed on their faces pretty clearly.
"Eliza is going out with someone that handsome? I'm so jealous"
"Wow, I wish he was my fiance."
"How dare that vulgar woman take the most handsome man in the continent.", I could hear their conversations from a far distance, apparently my hearing was also enhanced when I got here.
I hear footsteps that were very sneakily approaching outside the window super high above us. I then hear the noise of a metallic holster being unbuckled, soon right after; a sword comes flying at Eliza at high speeds, while everyone was watching us, I caught the sword mid-air and threw it back. The sword ricocheting off a wall and into the mans leg. The man was shaking in pain, and quickly ran away before I could start chasing him.
Everyone in the ballroom was shocked at the scene they had all just witnessed, and were very shocked, and scared. But at the same time, some of them were looking at Jay with anticipating eyes.
"My lady, are you okay?" I asked Eliza, who was in pure shock, very red.
