The Beast WithIn

Chapter 1

Eva's legs were shaking as the driver dropped her at a strange house. A house that looked like a grand palace even though it looked a little dark and spooky. It looked large and magnificent, but the place looked scary to Eva. She looked around with her forest green eyes but all she could see was the dense forest around the house. This place was isolated from the city. They have to travel 10km to reach the nearest bus stop.

' Only a maniac would build such a beautiful house here',

Eva thought distastefully.

The thought of working in this isolated house troubled Eva, but what choice did she have? She really needed this job and her friend recommended this high-paying job to her.

' I can't find another job anyway. This place is a little bit disturbing, but I trust Alex. He would never put me in danger '

" Miss Park ?"

Her thoughts were interrupted by a mature lady in maid dress. Her face looked stern and calculating. She looked at Eva from head to toe before looking at her in the eye.

" You are Eva Park ?"

Eva nodded her head timidly. The lady regarded her with cynical eyes before telling her to follow.

Seeing the fear and nervousness in her eyes, the maid sighed. She couldn't understand why their second master recommended this girl to this job. She really wanted to know their relationship. What so special about this girl? Why would he beg their Master to let her work in this house? And even their stubborn Master agreed. Everyone here knows that their Master hated the second young master even though they are brothers.

" This place is not scary as you think. As long as you bid by the rules, you are fine here. Do you understand? "

Eva nodded her head, making the maid sigh with displeasure.

" Always answer properly with words "

" Yes m..madam"

" Good now, follow me. Don't worry about your bags, I will have someone deliver them to your room. I am Martha, the head maid. You will address me as Madam. I am in charge of everything here. "

The maid called another girl who looked quite young. The girl smiled at Eva, making her feel at ease. At least she have company there.

" She is Clara. She will tell you everything that you need to know "

After the head maid left, the tension in the air disappeared. Clara gave a friendly smile to Eva. They bonded with each other like long-lost friends.

" You are Eva, right? I am Clara. Oh my god you are so beautiful. "

Eva smiled slightly, looked like she had a talkative friend.

"Umm Clara? What type of person is our Master?"

Eva could not help but ask the question that had been nagging her mind since the moment she arrived.

" Our master is not some normal person. He is super rich and super handsome, like handcrafted by the gods. And we shouldn't forget that body and his chocolate abs. "

Eva looked at the starry-eyed Clara and sweat dropped.

" I am asking about his character silly "

" Oh sorry I couldn't help but praise his beauty. Even though he is handsome, he is cold as ice. He never smiles, even to his own brother. He is quite strict and short-tempered. He hates it when someone disobeys him. His orders are absolute and needed to be followed without any delay."

Eva's nervousness returned. What if their master was a bad person? Will he punish her brutally like in the stories she heard? Even if he kills her and buries her there, no one will know about the disappearance of Eva Park.

Clara looked at the shaken up Eva and laughed loudly before flicking her forehead.

" It's not like what you think. He is not an abuser, it's just he won't even care about your existence. Well, he never cared about maids. He will fire us if we displeasure him. So be careful"

Eva felt little at ease and proceeded to follow Clara into the mansion.

"Oh, I forgot to mention, don't ever look into his eyes. He hates it and will immediately throw you out, regardless of the time".

" Point noted "

They both entered into the large mansion which stood beautifully in the forest. The inside structure of the house made Eva open her mouth in wonder. Everything is so beautiful and screamed rich.

She was so lost in the sight before her she forgot to notice a tall dark figure that was staring at her from the moment she entered.

Sensing the stare, Eva turned around and looked at the darkest pair of eyes she had ever seen. The eyes are emotionless but speak in depth.

Clara stiffened beside Eva and bent her head to give respect to her master. She hoped Eva would follow her lead but the dumb little one only stared at the eyes that emitted dominance.

She looked at Clara, who was bowing her head with a fearful look. Understanding dawned on her. She looked at the man who was still drilling his eyes at her lithe form and shivered.

'oh s**t !!'
