第十九章 (Chapter Nineteen)
"Master, it's late. You should probably get some rest." I say fixing the curtains.
"I'm not tired." He says.
He turns in the covers.
"Is everything alright?" I ask.
"I don't know. You tell me." He says.
I turn to him.
"Master?" I ask.
"Are you hiding anything from me?" He asks.
"I told you I'm not." I say.
He gets up. He shows me the letter from Lucifer. He takes off his eye-patch.
"Sebastian, I order you to tell me the meaning of this letter." He says.
I let out a breath.
"Very well. I wasn't always a demon." I say.
His eyes widen.
"Demons were once human. I've been a demon for centuries." I say.
"You were a human once?" He asks.
"A rather unfortunate time in my life." I say.
"So, who wrote this letter?" He asks.
"A man I once, still, now. He offered me a deal. He has never let me out of his field of roses." I say.
"Who is this man?" He asks looking up.
I let out a sigh.
"Someone who offered me salvation." I put down the candle.
"Salvation?" He asks.
I turn. His eyes were wide. I let out a breath.
"Let's just say my life didn't have love or happiness in it at all." I say.
His eyes turn sad. Something I haven't seen in him for quite some time.
"Now then. Off to bed." I say.
I tuck him in. I blow out the candles.
"Good night, master." I close the door.
