The Crown
I hug a pillow and peak into Vermilion's office, My eyes are dancing across the empty space.
Where is Vermilion?
I blink and wonder. Suddenly I feel a cold presence lurking behind me and I whip around to see Vermilion towering over me, his red eyes boring holes through me. There is barely any distance that is keeping our bodies from touching.
Goosebumps rise at the end of my nerves and my breath stutters as every muscle stiffens.
"M-My lord?" I stutter out with a bit of difficulty,
Vermilion stares me down for a moment longer and then enters the room without saying a word. I hesitantly follow him inside.
"Did Seraphina say anything?" Vermilion breaks the palpable silence, his lips are moving ever so slightly and there is that blank look on his face. I wonder how he maintains this aloofness 24/7.
