Embrace Of The Lucifer

August.

Martha told me that Mr. & Mrs. Knight were coming back from their business trip. She was going to introduce me to them. I’m very anxious. Martha told me that I had to behave as best as I could. I quickly went to washed my hands and clean myself. I looked like a mess!

“August! Where are you?” Martha yelled. I quickly ran towards her. “There you are. Come on you have to be quick. Master and Mrs. Knight are coming and if we don’t welcome them properly, they will get angry” she said in a quick pace. I nodded my head and followed her to the living room. As I reached the living room, I saw a lady sitting on the sofa while a man who looked like he was his late 50′s was sitting beside her, discussing something with her. I stood behind Martha feeling nervous.

“Hello Mr. & Mrs. Knight, I’m happy you could make it here safely” I heard Martha said softly to them. “Hello Martha, how has the house been. We didn’t have time to call you since the moment we left” the lady said. I saw from the corner of my eyes; Mrs. Knight was smiling at Martha while Mr. Knight was busy on his phone.

“Who’s this behind you Martha?” she asked. I froze in my spot and gulped. I was very nervous and petrified.

“Oh, ma’am this is August. she is the new maid here. I had told you about her employment” Martha said. She moved aside so that Mrs. Knight could see me. My face had turned red as I took a step forward, looking down.

“H-hello ma’am, hello S-Sir” damn my stuttering.

“Hello dear, how are you doing?” she asked me with a heart-warming smile which I returned gladly. “I-I’m good” I replied quietly.

“Well. I don’t like people who stutter like a loser” Mr. Knight spoke up. I gulped in fear. He didn’t like my stuttering.

laughed at her childish behaviour but immediately stopped when I felt someone watching me. I tilted my head and saw master standing by the kitchen door staring at me. My eyes widen in fear as his menacing stare met mine. His eyes were not holding the coldness like before, instead of that they were soft. My heart beat escalated as I kept staring at his beautiful eyes that held some emotion that I was not able to

I noticed I was staring at her for a quite long time. Her face indicated confusion as I began to go upstairs to my room completely ignoring everyone. When I reached my room, I opened the door and
