CHAPTER 14: ARE YOU OKAY?

Gloria had worked in Master Forneius' grand manor as the chief maid for over three decades. She practically raised Damien. His birth mother had abandoned him and his father, a few days after he was born. Gloria thought it was probably the reason he was be cold and distant most of the time. She was used to the young man's 'attitude'. However, there were still some things she couldn't ever get used to; one of which was the young master's frolicking. Even though he had very few mistresses compared to his father and other Lords, she still thought it was a lot. She had always seen Damien as her own son and the fact that she couldn't smack his relationship with the 'numerous' women away made her livid, but knowing that she was just a servant in the manor, she held her piece.

She continued to clean when she heard several thuds from upstairs. After little thought about the source of the noise, she decided to go and check what was going on. As she advanced the stairs walking silently, she heard footsteps. A woman with messy chestnut brown hair, no footwear and sheets for clothes ran downstairs.

'Be careful. Watch where you're going!' Gloria shunned as the lady fell and bruised her ankle on the stairs.

'Are you okay?' She asked putting the purple napkin she held inside her pocket before bending down to help the lady, only to be shoved to the side. Lara crept a little distance before running away.

Instantly, Gloria knew who she was. She shook her head in pity for the woman before heading back to the second floor.

Mike held Meghan's hand as they teleported. She let go of his hand as soon as they arrived. However, he was quickly distracted from her reaction when he looked at the three ladies in front of him.

'You've got to be kidding me!' Mike thought as he looked at Jade and Beryl. They were dressed in white bathrobes. They looked…ridiculous!

'What are you wearing?' Meghan asked amused.

'We wore this in honour of Mike,' Beryl curtsied.

'Stupid! You both look stupid.' Brachia muttered as she looked at the duo.

'Mike thinks we look just fine, thank you.' Jade smiled.

'It's a human thing. You wouldn't get it Brachia,' Beryl said defensively.

'Actually, it's not a human thing. He only dressed like that the last time because… he was in a rush,' Meghan explained.

'So this isn't a human attire?' Beryl asked disillusioned.

'It's not.' Mike replied with a grinning from ear to ear.

'You haven't been out there have you?' Mike asked.

'Out where?' Beryl asked with a confused expression on her face.

'Out in the human world?'

They both shook their heads in response.

'I could give you a tour sometime if you want.' He offered.

'Sure,' they chorused.

Jade cursed inwardly. She knew Mike was dressed weirdly the last time. Her cheeks were red with embarrassment and so were Beryl's. They hadn't ever been to the human world. Hell, hadn't even ever left their coven and they definitely hadn't thought this through.

'So…where are we going today?' Meghan asked the three ladies.

'We're going to see the pathfinder,' Brachia asked, adjusting her spear-shaped hairpin.

'The pathfinder?'
