She tugged in her clothes and other necessary stuff inside her bag. It was because she was leaving the house. Sadly, she wasn't departing for her home.

She was told that Lucifer gave her 4 days and when during the 4th day, she would be in his house, in the man's house from whom she was running away. Thankfully, Mrs. Knight convinced Lucifer to give her a few days. Not like, it was going to be a solution for her anyway. And the worse thing was, he decided to take her on her birthday. She despised it. She might even despise her birthday.

Sighing, she chained her bag and kept it beside the bed. She didn't want to leave that place...she knew she would miss Martha and Venessa so much. But...not like she had any choice.

She glanced at the calendar that was hanging on the, it said 10th august.

Her birthday was on 14th August. She was never really excited for her birthday or never hated it but, at that time she was truly hating it. Lucifer was doing that intentionally. His cruel nature said it all. For a moment, she was happy at least she had a chance to leave the job. But, Lucifer snatched that right too from her, by using Caroline.

Just thinking of Lucifer hurting Caroline was enough to make August tremble in fear. She would never let anything happen to Caroline.

Shutting her eyes, she let her tears flow down from her eyes. Who knew that her life would change like that?

She let out a shaky breath and cleaned her face with her hands. I have to be strong, for me and Caroline. I cannot be weak like this.

August got up from her bed and stood in front of the mirror. She pulled her hair in a messy bun. She paused for a moment and looked at the bruise on the corner of her lips. It was a small bruise but was visible. She winced when her hand touched it slightly. No wonder why it was still sore, she didn't apply any ointment there after all. She was thinking to ask Martha about it but, for sure Martha will question her. And August was very bad at lying, she knew she would get caught.

Pulling out her bag, she found a foundation container that Venessa gave her. Being the pale girl, the foundation color matched with her skin. She took a little amount of foundation on her hand and covered her bruise with it. Thankfully, it did work. She was finally satisfied with it.

Leaving her room, she approached the kitchen and as usual, started her regular chores. All the other maids were working too along with her.

"Oh look! Isn't this the same girl? What was her name again? August! Master Lucifer chose her as his housemaid right?" She heard one of the girl gossiping.

"Yes, it's her. Poor girl. She doesn't know Master Lucifer. He will make her life a hell." Another girl said. It was a lot for August. Why these girls have to gossip about me? Are they thinking that I can't hear them?

"Poor girl? I think she is lucky though. I mean look at Master Lucifer. He is the most gorgeous and hottest. Working in his house would be tough but fun at the same time." The first girl said it and giggled. Oh god! How can she even think about her own master like this? And that too Master Lucifer! She is the one who has no idea about Master's capability. He is no gorgeous, he is dangerous!

"Gosh Alina, what are you even saying? If someone hears you then you know what might happen? Just keep your mouth quiet and work." The second girl said.
