Kimberly Pov:
"Ugh." I lie on my bed still feeling excited and way too impatient about Tristan coming over.
I wanted..no I needed to see Tristan. Lying on my bed completely bored out of my mind. I decide this was the perfect opportunity to find out a thing or two about Damien.
So I go to his room again but this time I knew he wasn't home. He had gone out after breakfast for some kind of important meeting so I had the house all to myself.
I come out of my room and rush to Damien's room. I try the door but obviously it's lock. Lucky for me picking locks are my thing so I do just that. I pick the lock to the door and let myself in, even if this is my second time entering Damien's room. I still felt really fascinated by it.
I scrutinized the room checking for cameras but I found none. When I was sure there were no cameras in the room. I scan the room but nothing. There was nothing incriminating about Damien in his room. It's just a room. No files, no tapes, nothing.
After a while of searching I decide that this is useless. Just as I am about leaving the room, it hit me. There must be an office in this house. I mean if there is nothing in his room then there should be something in his office. I quickly leave the room and lock it.
Now my problem is how on earth do I find his office. I mean it shouldn't be too far from his room right, so it would be one of these doors in the hall.
I start trying every door handle but all the doors were locked. How on earth am I supposed to pick the lock to every single one of these door. I sigh in frustration.
I decide to pick them one by one, just as I am about to pick the first one. I sense someone coming upstairs. I have stronger sense and hearing than a human because of my magic.
I run at full speed back to my room, hoping as hell it wasn't Damien. He would be able to tell by how loud my footsteps were. I manage to get to my room in time for whoever it was to get to my door.
The person knocks on my door. I steady my breathing and open the door. It was Damien's butler. "Lady..." He paused not knowing my name. "Andrea." I say. "Lady Andrea, Lord Drago is here with his pet and has requested your presence."
"Sure, I will be there shortly." I inform him.
I quickly change into a different gown. This one more exposing than the first one but covered the necessary places.
Pets were not allowed to wear long and noble gowns like high class ladies no, we are to dress like sluts or even less. Some pets are not even allowed to wear clothes.
I rush into the elevator going downstairs. Once the elevator stops at the bottom floor. I run out and to the guest lounge. "Carlos." I screamed excitedly, not sure if his real name has been exposed like mine. He turns to me with a very big smile but tired look in his eyes." Hey." He said. "How have you been." He asked me.
"Better, now that you are here." I look over his shoulder to find Lord Drago and Damien talking and my breath hooked in my throat. I thought he went out.
"Umm Master, is it okay if i take Carlos to my room." I asked.
Damien stops whatever he is talking about with Lord Drago and stare at me. Luckily, he nods making me smile.
I drag Tristan to my bedroom. "Hey, how are you." I asked him. Now that we were out of earshot. Tristan's smile seemed to diminish. He lays down on my bed. "Honestly I don't know Kimberly. I am not sure if I want to continue this mission anymore and if am to, I might lose sight of it." He said in one tired breath.
My anger rises immediately. "Is he hurting you." I say already boiling inside. "No." Tristan rushes to say now sitting up. "He is not hurting me Andrea relax." He assured me. "Then what's wrong." I asked confused. He seems to pause, not sure whether to tell me.
"Tristan come on, you can talk to me." I said "Whatever you tell me will be between us okay?" I reassure him.
After some contemplation he seems to give up. "I-I think I m-might be in l-l-love with him." He said not looking me in the face.
It took me sometime to register what he said. "Wait what?" I asked confused. "I might be in love with Aiden." He repeats it.
"You can't be serious." I say, unable to believe Tristan. "Tristan you are not even gay." I say. He was the straightest person I knew, so where was this coming from.
Tristan lets out a sigh. I don't know how it happened Andrea. It just happened. "After he took me home that night. Things just started to happen. He was so nice and caring. He gave me the attention I needed. I was mean, I pushed him away multiple times but he kept coming and before I knew it, all I wanted to do was kiss him till I pass out." He said breathing heavily. "Now am confused because he's been distant for sometime and it's eating me up. I can't take it." He whines.
I look at his eyes and all I saw was real pain. Damn, my best friend has fallen in love. "Wow." I said. "That...is more than a lot to take in Tris." I said still shaken.
He sighs.
"I know. I just don't know what to do now. I am so confused. I feel like I should tell him the truth about me but am scared cause that might give you out. I am so confused." He looked strained and about to cry. I felt so bad.
Sighing, I take Tristan's face in my hands. "Listen to me Tris. You don't have to continue this mission. I can do it alone. I don't want you feeling this way. I tell him.
He smiles a little. "I know but I can't let you do this alone and besides. It doesn't matter if I continue it or not the point is, I am still lying to him." He said and I must agree with him.
It does not matter if he continues the mission. He is still lying about everything else and if Aiden finds out he could have his head for it.
I give Tristan an apologetic look placing my hand on his. He gives me a smile before hugging me.
