Heather went straight to her room, took off her clothes and entered the shower. She decided not to go to the Chambers in search for May. She didn't want to get her in any trouble so she decided to wait for May to come. Moreover she still couldn't stop thinking about what happened. 'Sleep Heather...just sleep...'
It was morning and she had been waiting all morning for May to come but so no sign of her. She looked at the clock, it was 10:30am already and May hadn't come get. 'Why is she taking so long to come? Gosh I no longer feel comfortable waiting for her. I'll just have to go to the Chambers' She mustered courage and walked out of her room heading for the Chambers.
She got out of the elevator and was on the second floor. She didn't know which way to go so she went to the maids quarters to ask for the directions. 'Well Ma'am head straight ahead and take a left turn. It's the door right across the hall' the maid said point to the direction. 'Ohhh...thank you and yes, another question...did you happen to see Lord Derek anywhere?' She wanted to be sure of what she was doing. 'Yes Ma'am, I saw him and the Alpha Lord on the ground floor, in the sitting area with the Emperor and his wife.' 'Oh well thank you'. 'Do you need anything else?' 'No I am fine...' The maid bowed and excused herself. 'Still don't get the bowing and the ma'am but whatever...' She shook her head heading for the Chambers.
She opened the enormous door and entered inside. 'Odd, where is everyone? Why is it so quiet? Did Derek rent the entire thing or...Oh gosh that means he must still be here, I should go-no! I asked the maid earlier and she said she saw him with the Mr. Grumpy on the grand floor, so he can't I won't leave without speaking to May first. Come what may, I must speak to her...how do I even find her here?' She walked around looking at every corner until she came across a hallway with doors on either sides from the beginning to the end of the hallway. 'Great, she could be in any of these rooms' she sighed and began checking the rooms. 'That's weird, they're all locked' she was half way and all the doors she checked were closed but she kept checking.
She got to the last door and took a deep breath before knocking then trying to open the door. For some reason she suddenly felt anxious about what might be behind the door. It could be anything...she shut her eyes as the door opened and waited, for something to happen, anything, but nothing had and the room was very quiet. She finally open her eyes slowly and froze on the spot.
May was lying on the floor half naked in tore clothes. She laid there lifeless and had red and purplish spots here and there. Her eyes was red swollen and her nose was bleeding and had a torn lip. She had dry tear marks and she was shivering. Her wrists and her ankles were also had ref marks.
Heather was in utter shock and disbelief. 'Aa-M-mm...."hiccup" M-mm... May...?' She struggled to bring words out of her mouth with her voice vibrating as she walked towards May in tremor, utterly shaken by the sight before her. Her eyes were filled with tears and her words choked her, she couldn't understand anything 'Mmm-May... please listen to me "sob" please wake up...."louder sob" wake up!!' She screamed repeatedly holding May to her chest and crying. 'MAY!! "Loud sob" WAKE UP!!' she screamed shaking May vigorously and stopped when May groaned.
'Mmm-May? May listen to me, eyes your eyes ok, everything will be fine...just open your eyes, I am begging you, please open your eyes' She kept on pleading with her, then got up to find something to cover her body. She attempted take off the bed sheets but it was stained with various fluids. She rushed into the bathroom and got took the towel. She rushed back and covered her with the towel. 'Don't worry May every-everything will be fine... everything is going to be fine. I-I'll go get help ok?' she said and got up, running out of the Chambers.
She ran so fast and burst open the door. 'Help!!! Somebody help me!!' she screamed out her lungs and all the maids around came rushing to her. 'You please help me, she-she is bleeding right now, please help me!' 'But Ma'am, what happened-' she stopped running after Heather together with all the maids that came.
The ruckus Heather created disrupted the peace and quiet of ARC and the news spread like wildfire. It spread so fast that it got to the Alpha Lord's ears. He wasn't told about it, he was walking along with Derek and they had to hear the gossip from some maids, apparently supposed to by cleaning. He looked over at them and they straightened out, then over at Derek who looked lost in his thoughts. 'Let's go to Chambers, they won't quit their bullshit,' He changed their course and Derek jolted back to reality, following Inn from behind to the Chambers.
May got conscious suddenly started crying and wiggling to get out of Heather's grip saying ' No, no! Please... please don't hurt me...I beg you please' Heather was speechless. May's pleas and struggled just destroyed her. It was just too much. 'Mmm-May, i-it's me, H-Heather, I would never hurt you... please listen to me.' She shot a glare at the maids and shouted 'Do something!!' 'Y-Ye-Yes Ma'am, bring the first aid' one of the Maids ordered them others and one ran off to get it. 'See May, you'll get better so don't worry...' 'N-no...h-he will hurt me again, no...' 'Don't worry May, Derek won't.be able to do anything to you anymore...' The maids stiffened on hearing that and looked at the door. The Alpha Lord and Lord Derek were standing there for God knows how long.
Heather didn't notice anyone, May's condition was the only thing on her mind. She kept on speaking I'll of Lord Derek with so much anger. 'Noo... it's not Lord Derek, he's not the one' 'He's not? Then who is? Tell me May who did this to you?' 'Lo..rd Ma-Mayo...' Heather paused for a second to absorb what she just said. 'That rascal?! He did this this?' Fuck! she was even more livid. She heard someone sniggered from behind and turned to the door.
It was the Alpha Lord with a totally unreadable expression and, beside him was Derek. His expression was indifferent. She wasn't surprised at Inn's expression, what could she expect from a devil? But Derek's indifference enraged her. Was he supposedly her husband?
How could he see this and nothing about it? 'Aren't you going to do anything? Your wife was raped by some scoundrel and all you can do is stare?' that question shook all the maids around, they eye gasped and covered their mouth. Heather didn't give a damn about any bullshit, she glared at Derek with so much anger. He was the one May always spoke highly of, they fought because of him, she never said anything but sang praises of him and now, that she was robbed of her dignity? The only thing he did was stare?
Inn arched his brow at her statement but didn't say anything, he turned to Derek and watched him, to see what he would do. 'We don't waste time on bullshit, keep own questions and attitude, to yourself.' He said with clear bluntness and nonchalance before walking away. Inn stared at his disappearing figure then at Heather's shocked face pathetically before he left. She didn't know what was more shocking at this point, that Mayo raped May or that Derek did nothing about it.
