Chereads / Hiding from my Demon Prince / Chapter 5 - Morana

Chapter 5 - Morana

I was woken from my deep slumber by a ghost. A ghost who was a little bit pissed. He was throwing my things that were on the table at the wall like there is some kind of competition. Maybe he was more than a little pissed. Or is he just enjoying himself? One can never be sure when it comes to Aro. It is only 6 am in the morning. He is a ghost that lives in this mansion. He is also a sadist who likes to wake girls like me at this ungodly hour.

He was floating around, his white hazy form allowing me to see him clearly. The way he was glaring at me confirmed my suspicions. Who made him angry now?

"What do you want?" I asked while rubbing my eyes. I hate waking up early when I was out for most of the night. He is such a needy little baby that he won't budge until you give him the attention he wants. Sometimes I wonder if someone killed him because he was so annoying.

"You are awake. I just wanted to see how much noice I can make until you wake up." he said as he went to sit on the chair. I groaned at him. He must have fought with Nyx. That is why he is doing this. How many times have I told her to stop messing with Aro he is already a pain in the ass, and she goes and messes with him. Since we both are one and the same, he takes revenge like this.

"Aro go away, you know it was not me who fought with you, why are you disturbing me?" I said as I returned to my precious sleep. I swear to God if he starts it again, I will lose my shit.

"First of all, this is my room. Why would I go anywhere? You should be the one who should leave." apparently this house used to belong to him. He was the "Master" of this house. This room used to belong to him and being the unfortunate one I had to go and choose this room. Not like I regret it, much. This room is the most beautiful in the entire mansion. The view from the windows is to die for, overlooking the forest and a small lake it is simply the best room in the mansion. I selected this room even before I saw the other rooms.

I cast a spell around me to keep any sound out in case he started his tantrums again and fell asleep.

This time when I woke up it was not because of Aro. But because of the sunlight that was pouring from my windows. A shadow fell on me, I opened my eyes to see Leo hovering over me, his mouth was moving but I could not hear anything.

"What?" I asked, then I remembered the spell I cast last night. As soon as I undid it "can you hear me now?" he asked, he was standing with his hands on his hips, looking annoyed. He must have been trying to wake me for some time.

"Yes, I can. It was Aro." I explained.

"I can see." he said gesturing to the room. A deep sigh escaped me when I saw the condition my room was in, everything was a mess. He had torn paper and had sprinkled it throughout the room like it was confetti. And my things were lying around everywhere.

"Why are you even tolerating him, when you can exorcise him. You are a witch out him in his place." As soon as he said it the lamp on my bedside table flew at his head. Before it could collide, Leo deflected it with his hand, smirking at the wall where Aro disappeared. He is a demon so his reflexes are pretty well, before he could recover from the lamp another flew at him from the opposite side. It found its mark, and an evil laugh floated out of the room.

Leo was fuming as he went after Aro. Even I had to stifle my laugh at his expression. It is not like I didn't exorcise Aro, it is that he can't be exorcised. His soul is somehow bound to his house, or maybe someone did it. I don't know how or why he can't go outside the house; I think his soul is connected to this house.

As soon as I was fully awake the memories from last night poured into me, memories of the time I spent as Nyx. I groaned at the onslaught. It was like a film, playing scene by scene in front of my eyes, we can keep things from each other if we want like how she didn't share the moment of the deaths of those vampires

But she made sure to let me see and feel everything that she did with that boy. Calling him a boy is an understatement, he was a man. Is she flexing that she is getting more action than me? How cheap of her. Not like I can make any boyfriend or even friends for that matter when I have so much to hide. I guess I will just have to live vicariously through her.

Did she have to challenge him like that? I will find you, he said. It would be fun to see him trying to find her. It is not like I will ever see him. Nyx's and my lives are worlds apart. and they will stay apart, we don't have any reason nor any interest in each others lives. except for some occasional handsome boys

He was really handsome though. The name pretty boy suits him. Who is he anyway? How come I have never seen such a handsome demon, I have been missing out by staying in the house, I should go outside more often, maybe I will also be able to bump into someone. On a second thought, I should not do that. No one will be able to understand or want a mess like me.
