CHAPTER 5 The Human World
Crystal Point Of View
"Are you tired? You wanna go somewhere?" I was taken by his husky voice.
I don't know but when I saw him earlier in that place there was some force in me that said he is the chosen one. Then, my skin glowed when his eyes met mine so I tried my luck to tame him and I succeeded.
I was still sitting beside him while his friend was in front of us. I know he is a human but I need him to explore more. By the look of his face, he does have the power to do that.
I turned my face to the window to see the moon but it wasn't blue anymore. Maybe, the ceremony is really over and they are definitely looking for me now.
As much as possible, I won't let them track me down and the man with me can't know what I really am. I'll just stay with him until I can think of a solution.
His hot breath and I feel my stupidity because he is close to me. My hair stood on end, this is my first time. I have never felt this way with men, maybe because in our packs we are treating each other equally.
We were both shocked when the car stopped hard. I looked there at the man whose name was Howard and until now his face was frowning.
I turned to Zion when it came out and opened my door. "Let's go inside..."
I just quietly followed him. I was surprised when his friend didn't leave the car so I stopped.
"What's the problem?" I heard Zion ask, I turned to him and pointed Howard inside the car.
"How about him?"
He came closer then grabbed my hand. "Don't mind him, he can do whatever he wants. Come on, we need to rest," he explained.
I stopped howling and just sent him. We entered a large building and were greeted by a beautiful room.
This is not my first time in the human world but this is my first time to see this kind of place. It’s been a long time since I last went to people’s place and it’s only in the book that I know the changes in them. Very spacious and very beautiful, like in the palace they had decorations as beautiful as ours and their lamps were as big as in the palace.
"Good evening, Mr. Enriquez..." I caught the attention of a woman who greeted Dave.
She's wearing something elegant and has something on her head. When her eye landed on me she quickly lost her smile. Did I do something wrong?
"I'm staying here for the meantime and she's with me. Serve her like how you serve me, understand?" I heard Zion say.
The girl smiled again. "Sure, Mr. Enriquez. Welcome, Miss."
I was shocked when she smiled at me and obviously strained. Does she have a problem with me?
My attention went to Zion when he walked again and because he was holding my hand, I was carried along, of course I could not use my force and strength when I was with him. I'll balance my strength like with the humans so he doesn't get suspicious.
We boarded a box room and he pressed a button on the side of it then voluntarily closed what we entered. I didn't pretend to be surprised by what I saw and pretended that everything was normal. I almost fell down when the room suddenly started, I looked at Zion and he was staring at me with concern.
"Are you scared? Do you have a phobia riding an elevator?" he asked in succession.
I couldn't understand what he wanted to say but I just shook my head.
He smiled and pulled me closer next to him. "Don't worry, I'm here beside you," he exclaimed.
I don't know why but that makes me happy inside. He makes me smile with his words.
It was still fresh in my mind. The night I have spent with him while guided by the blue moon. I knew that I'm destined to meet him.
Meanwhile, Zion and his friend left earlier and I am now left alone in the whole room. I couldn't do anything even if I went around a few times, because I didn't know what humans do when they are alone. If I was still in our kingdom it would be impossible to be like this, I have too much to take care of especially I am what the King expected to do everything.
I also feel hungry, human food is not enough for me at breakfast. I'm craving for meat and fresh blood. It's been since I ate our food and I think I can't take it as the day goes by without me tasting them.
I went outside the room to look for the animal but there were only rooms here. I thought about going down but I just stopped when I came across a small room that Zion and I rode last night. How to use it again?
"Excuse me, Miss?" I looked at the old woman who was beside me.
She looks like my grandmother.
"Why are you wearing that, Miss? Are you really leaving like that?" she asked.
I looked at what I was wearing and wondered what the problem was, because it was okay. "Are you a model, Miss? Why haven't you taken the elevator yet, it looks like you've been here before. Are you waiting for someone?"
Just shake my response. She was quiet and planned to ride, maybe she can help me. "Uhm, are you leaving?" She stopped and turned to me. "Can I keep up? Actually, I don't know how to take the elevator. I'd like to get off," I explained.
"Why? Aren't you here checked in?" She seemed surprised by what she heard. "Miss, it's the VIP floor so how do you even get here? It's impossible for the hotel staff to let you in."
Shall I say? Well, she doesn't even know me so maybe there's no problem.
"Ah... I'm with Zion Enriquez," I replied smiling.
She suddenly covered her mouth. "Oh my gosh! I can't believe this! Are you sure about that, Miss?" she asked and I nodded.
I even pointed out the room where I came from. "I slept in his room last night and we had breakfast together earlier..."
"Are you his woman?" she asked so I didn’t quite understand.
"What do you mean?"
"You know... something like a prostitute? Met in the bar and hang out in his room?"
I shook again. "We just slept last night, nothing happened," I said.
I can hear her relief. "It's good then. I thought you're also like the other girls he banged. I'm sorry to say something like that to you, Miss. What's your name again?"
