✍️ CHAPTER TITLE ✍️: Exposing Vera—- part 2

He walks hastily, with his feet hitting hard and fast, against the tiled floor, which observes luxury. His eyes were devoid of any emotion, aside from his straight gaze, which showed misconception and disbelief.

Damien didn’t for once look behind him to confirm if Annabel was coming with him, as he had instructed. He knew that she was coming, he could feel her slow steps and the constant sniffs, that were coming from her.

When Damien finally got to the butler’s doorstep his steps halted. For a moment he was thinking, thinking whether he should go ahead with what he had on his mind.

Annabel had said that the butler wasn’t a man like everyone thought that he should be, with a valid reason from her.

Even though he had heard it from Annabel and he was bound to believe her, Damien still wondered how that could have been possible. Is there anyone who would read about the fire, and fearlessly rush into it? Damien doesn’t know, and he despises whatever thought keeps on crossing his mind.

The thought that was encouraging him to believe that the butler was a woman like Annabel had informed.

What insane woman would disguise for love? He was confused by the fact that Annabel claimed that the butler was a princess.

Damien had been rude to a large number of women, and that didn’t exclude the princesses from entering the list if they crossed the wrong path of him.
What Damien couldn’t remember was his encounter with Vera. The encounter where he was rude to her as Annabel claimed. However, Damien didn’t doubt it to be a lie, as it was something that he could do.

In smart thinking, if a man despises you, isn’t staying away the right thing to do? So why were Annabel’s gibberish words trying to acknowledge the fact that the butler came down here just to win his love and be close to him?

Presently, everything seems like a nightmare, and probably a concept of imagination.
An imagination of a genius writer, who knows how to create a concrete imaginary words sat alright, and created the words while bringing reality out of it.

What is happening couldn’t have been possible, and it must be in Annabel’s imagination like Damien hoped.

Her love and the longing to keep the butler around her must have tampered with her reasoning that she lost control of whatever utterance she made with her mouth.

Roughly without waiting any longer, a knock hit the butler’s closed doors, and it alerted Vera, making her worried where she stood by the wardrobe, a dress was in her hand, the one which she was folding in the box.

Maybe what was running through her mind was so much that even after fantasizing about a good sleep all through the night, Vera couldn’t get a satisfying one.

It wasn’t that she couldn’t sleep, but while asleep, her mind didn’t stop trailing after different thoughts. Maybe it was a sad nightmare or her eyes got tired of pretending, that it fluttered open and couldn’t close up anymore.

Vera’s eyes were open, and they roamed around the room in thought. After tonight, she only has a night to spend here, and then she would depart from their lives.

Vera would go away from them, and she would take their memories along with her. Vera’s situation related to a hunter, who dreamt of hunting down a wild animal, but in the end, he returned home with a vessel that he encountered while hunting.

All the same, the hunter didn’t leave empty-handed, as he got what he never expected and it would be useful to him. So is Vera’s situation.

Damien’s love hasn’t been completely gotten by her, but she was able to influence some values lacking in him.

Even if Damien wouldn’t be with her in this lifetime, as destiny might have decided it that way, he would earn the opportunity to be with a woman one day.

When an hour passed with both her eyes still wide open and glaring around, Vera felt thirsty and decided to get water for herself.

Grabbing a coat from the wardrobe, she legged it down the stairs after wearing it so she could prevent her breasts from showing. Vera went directly to the kitchen, where she got herself enough water to drink.

“Humm…” Vera hummed in satisfaction. She recycled the bottle, which she had consumed the water completely because she was thirsty.

Vera turned swiftly around and left the kitchen while praying not to come across anyone with her hand covering her. It would be suspicious if they found the butler roaming around, by the time of the night.

Luckily for her, as she had prayed, she didn’t collide with anyone, and neither did anyone see her till she was back in her room.

Closing the door without bothering to twist the key, Vera walked forward to where she had kept her box all this while. She wiped the box all over, even if it wasn’t dirty.

Opening her wardrobe when she was done, Vera started picking her clothes one after another, with a heavy heart and a broken expression.

Each time she remembers what the future could hold, a fast movement would pass across her heart and give her a heavy breath in return.

It wasn’t as if tears didn’t try coming, Vera just didn’t let them drop till it streamed down her cheeks. Deep down in her, Vera wished to walk up to Damien and tell him the entire truth, especially now that he wished that she was a woman.

What is stopping her from doing so is the part of her, which was scared of what the outcome would be, instead of encouraging her.

Vera has finally accepted herself as a coward. A coward with the greatest fear and the inability to challenge the situation running through her veins.

Once she’s done getting her luggage ready before morning, she would have the entire day to spend with Annabel and Damien before leaving.
Caleb is never at home to always notices his sight, so she would not hope to spend any special time with him. She would have thanked him for helping Andromeda if she could, but it wasn’t possible.

Vera remained on the spot silently, while folding the dresses neatly in the box. She thanked the clothes internally, even though it was crazy, but the clothes also helped in hiding her identity from the world.

When she was done folding, her hand reached for the hanged clothes so she could pack them as well, when suddenly, a knock that startled her came on the door.

Vera’s head snapped towards the door worriedly, as she wondered if anyone had seen her when she went downstairs to get water to drink. Vera doubted if that happened because if it did, the person would have confronted her and not just knocked now.

She was so lost in the confusion that she forgot about the door that she needed to answer. The doorknob was twisted from the outside and was pushed open without her permission.

The person who had opened the door didn’t wait for her approval before they entered making her surprised that who could be awake by this time of the night together with her?

Vera doesn’t know, and the opportunity to decide it wasn’t given to her.

Her body embodied disbelief when Damien stepped into and didn’t bother closing the door behind him.

Seeing Damien appearing in her presence when she wasn’t expecting, all her sense of reasoning paused.

It took seconds before she looked down at her body, as Damien’s gaze was on her. It was then that she realized that the pajamas she was putting on, which belonged to men had led her into trouble.

Vera didn’t know that trouble had already been placed in a position to bring Damien to her room.

The top of the pajamas which was supposed to be flat against her chest wasn’t. Rather, it had a big bump on it, as her breast appeared, with her nipples pointing out through it.

Vera’s eyes which already had fear at the sight of Damien almost popped out of their socket in both shock and fright.

Drastically, her eyes shifted from her breasts to stare at Damien whose expression showed nothing less than being shocked too.

Damien had come here to confirm if what Anabel told was the truth, but before he could even say or find anything, the truth was staring him straight in the eyes.

His eyes trailed from her face, where Damien found the mustache that had always been there missing. The face which had always resembled a young man’s face, but presently looks feminine.

Damien’s eyes didn’t stop at that, they trailed down till they settled on her chest. Shamelessly, he stared at her two round breasts, which must have been happy that they weren’t told, and was poking out of her pajamas.

The cold-hearted Damien didn’t know when his lips parted open in surprise.

Just as if the butler knew that she had been exposed and was trying to cover up for it, her two hands raised, only to wrap themselves around around her chest.

Vera was trying to hide the breast from his eyes, but she forsake the fact that Damien had seen them already. Also, the mustache that gave her face another look isn’t there anymore, and that’s another evidence for Damien.

Presently, Vera looked more like a woman than she would ever do like a man, and that created the obvious in Damien’s eyes.

Speechless and embarrassed, she looked up to see Damien’s cold expression on her. Vera bit her lower lips so hard out of nervousn’tss. So hard that it had a cut and she started tasting her blood in her mouth.

As if the night of surprises wasn’t over for her, Annabel also appeared behind Damien. When Vera looked at her face, the sight of Annabel’s swollen nose and tears in her eyes alerted her that something had gone wrong. But what could it be? Why was Annabel crying?

Vera had left them together in the room, with Damien pampering his sister through the night. So what went wrong afterwards?

She knew that Annabel must have been crying because of a reason, but she never knew that the reason was because of her identity.

Since Damien entered and met her this way, Vera thought that he was just finding out. Little did she know, that every single detail about her identity had been given to him and he was here just to confirm it by himself.

Annabel didn’t enter with Damien, but she knew that he must have been speechless with the way he was looking at the butler right now.

Knowing Vera was still unaware of the reason why they had come to her, Annabel said tearfully,

“I- I’m sorry….” She uttered while staring at the confused Vera’s face. Looking through her expression and realizing the awful feeling she must be having right now. She caused this, Annabel caused it.

“I- I told Damien the truth about you. I told him that you’re a man and not a woman,” Annabel recited fast while sobbing harder.

“I told you came here because you love him. I told him the truth about everything,” Annabel covered her face with her palm in guilt.

When Damien came in and met her like this, her heart had started racing heavily. But now after hearing what Annabel said, she felt like it would not take time before her heart would drop out of her chest and her body would turn lifeless.

What Annabel just told her couldn’t have been true. Someone needs to tap her consistently, while telling her that Deja Vu was busy playing some tricks on her, because this can’t happen.
