Embrace Of The Lucifer

Chapter 47

Her eyes would not shift from the luxury polished window before her. The beads of the rain were as

clear as a crystal, the pitter-patter sound of the drizzles was giving her a bizarre comfort, as the

raindrops battered on the glossy window. It had been raining all day, the day was breezy and

boisterous. She glanced around the clock and found out it was 2 p.m.

How long has it been raining? She thought to herself. It was not a usual thing to rain all day but she

liked it. She liked looking out at the rain. But, she wished she could get out of the house, into the

garden, just to feel the drizzles on her hand. It was not possible, she works there, she could not just

think about enjoying her time in the rain when there are tons of work due.

However, she perked up and walked towards the window. She could at least watch closely, right? Her

palm involuntarily touched the window and she could feel the moisture on her skin and the coldness of

the breezy weather. How delightful sight was it! The droplets of the rain were freely pouring from the

heavy dark clouds and small puddles were forming on the garden, they began to plink as the rain

became heavier. She giggled softly when her eyes landed on a baby bird who dried itself while sitting

on the tree branch after flying in the rain. She began to think how free they were. How carefree those

birds look? How liberated the drizzles were? Was she liberated? Did she have the freedom like those

birds and the drops of the rain? Her smile dropped and her heart was clouded by the sudden

gloominess.

"What are you doing!" She recoiled. Turning, around August found Ela furiously glaring at her with her

hands tightly gripping on the vacuum cleaner. She gulped the big lump in her throat and quickly moved

away from the window.

"Are you crazy, girl? What were you thinking putting your dirty hand on the window? The maids have

spent hours cleaning it! Oh goodness, the master will kill me." She muttered the last sentence as she

began to rub the already-cleaned surface with a rug.

But, I did not get any dirt on the glass... She thought to better not utter her thoughts to Ela, she did not

want to get any more scoldings.

"Master loves to keep his house neat and clean. So, never keep any of his belongings untidy. Do you

get it?" August timidly nodded her head, agreeing with Ela. She hummed and walked out of the living

room. It was almost 2:20 in the noon and all of the maids would be leaving for their house soon. They

would be leaving for their vacation. But, August's letter was still not approved by anyone, well by

Lucifer. He was the one who approved all the maids' letters, she thought he would show her some

mercy and let her spend Christmas with Caroline. She thought to ask Ela again. She followed her to the

kitchen.

"Uh, Ela, can I ask if my letter has been approved or not? I was not informed about it." She asked

hesitantly. Ela did not respond for a few minutes and continued doing her work. August was feeling

nervous while standing behind her. She waited a few more seconds for her response but got none. So,

she thought Ela was not in the good mood to speak to her. She turned around and was about to leave

the kitchen.

"Master did not inform me anything about your letter of leave." August's heart sank deep. No no,

please. Why would he do that! It's Christmas!

"But, he will be arriving here soon. You can try talking to him." August did not want to go any near

Lucifer, but she wanted to give it a try. She hoped that Lucifer would allow her...she did not want to stay

there!

"He phoned me and informed me that he will be arriving here in less than three hours," August

muttered okay and quickly rushed out of the kitchen. What was she thinking? She thought Lucifer

would be kind enough to let her go at Christmas. In reality, he was nothing but a cold-hearted monster.

Tears pooled out of her eyes, she bit on her lips to suppress the sob that was about to leave her mouth.

August knew there was no point in crying, she was stuck there... And she had to wait till the Devil

arrived.

******************************************

The journey was long and tiring, only an hour left and he will be in his house, relaxing on his bed. He

received emails from Ela, displaying the letters that the maids have written to him. They all want to

leave for few days for Christmas. He smirked when he received the letter of leave of August.

Silly girl, how could you think I'll let you go? Even if it's Christmas, I'll never let you go. You will not step

a foot out of my house.

Viciously, he approved everyone's letter and allowed them one week's leave, but he did not say

anything about August's letter. He wanted her to be in the dark, he wanted to give her a little hope of

freedom and then snatch it away. He could do any vicious thing to see her scared face and quivering Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

lips. Lucifer felt himself getting aroused at the thoughts of her squirming body underneath him. He

called his assistant and told him to inform Ela about his arrival. He could not wait to see his August.

Lucifer did not care that he was being heartless for not letting a girl visit her family, but did he care? No,

he did not care. He never cared about anyone besides him. His avoidance of August's feelings and

happiness was a shred of great evidence to prove it. He felt something for her, but he refused to accept

it. He kept telling himself that he was not in love with her, and that he only wanted her body, that he

only wanted to touch her. But, was it the truth? Did he only care about her body? He refused to answer,

he had only avoided the questions that his consciousness had kept asking him.

One hour had passed and the plane was about to land at the Florida airport, and very soon he will be at

his home. After the plane had landed, his luggage and other bags were taken out by his guards. He got

up from his seat and flexed his muscles, he could sense the stare of his female employees and the air

hostess from behind him. He smirked, ignoring them and their sexual fantasies about him.

If it was any other day, he wouldn't have minded making their fantasies come true, but he was not even

attracted to them. Those women were beautiful with their stunning barbie figure and face caked by

makeup, the fake was written all over their body, unlike his August who was beautiful just the way she

was. And once again he smiled, his eyes sparkled at her thought, it always does but he never showed

it to her or anyone.

However, by the time he reached his home, it was five o'clock. He was seated on one of his luxury

couches with a glass of wine in his hand. He finally had a relaxing time in his bedroom, he was also

thankful for being able to wear his casual clothes. After a few minutes, he heard a knock on his door.

He groaned in annoyance.

"Come in." He said. The door opened revealing the women he was yearning to see. He was surprised

to see August coming into his room on her own, she never did that unless she had to clean his room or

bring his meals. He hid his expression and asked her.

"Do you want something, August?" Her body shuddered when he uttered her name and it did not go

unnoticed by Lucifer. He smirked in victory, he enjoyed the effect he had on her.

"I-I wanted to ta-talk about t-the le-" "You are not going anywhere." He blankly said, without even

looking at her. She frowned. How can he do this?

"B-but the other gi-girls have the per-permission." She whispered. "I do not want those girls with me. I

want you, August. I want to spend this Christmas with you." His face beamed in happiness while her

face was clouded by distress. She looked down at her feet and responded,

"Please master, I want to see my aunt, I have never spent any holiday without her. She would be

expecting me." Please let me go. He did not say anything and walked to her, standing at least two feet

above her. She felt even smaller in front of him. He leaned over to her ear and placed a gentle kiss on

her head, she shivered at his touch and tried to move her body away from his, but she could not move

a single muscle. He, then, wrapped his arms around her small figure and pulled her closer to his chest,

embracing her. She was dumbfounded and scared, she feared him more than anything. Unknowingly,

her eyes filled with tears and they brazenly dripped from her eyes, she did not know the exact reason

her eyes watered. Was it the fear that she was feeling by his embrace? Or was it the fact that she could

never get away from him?

"I said no, princess. It means you're not going. You've spent enough of your life with your aunt. Now, it's

going to me. Always and forever. I'm never letting you go, August. You're mine." Nonetheless, he

touched her lips with his, as he moved them with the rhythm of his kiss.
