Turning around, I opened my eyes to find Sebastian sleeping on the chair beside the bed. I smiled at him. He looked cute with a pout on his face. He looked peaceful. Guess it was because the curse was broken. I've never seen his sleeping face before so it was a cute and amusing sight for me. Sitting up, I slipped from under the covers and let my feet touch the cold tile floor, making me shudder.

I gulped and bended forward so that I can take a closer look at his face, careful not to wake him up. I looked at his face, perfect. His eyelashes so long and thick that I felt jealous. His eyebrows perfectly made and his lips, pink and soft. Then I looked at his jaw which is as sharp as a knife that is definitely capable of cutting my finger if I tried to touch it.

I giggled at my own perverted thoughts while keeping my eyes on his jawline without realizing that he's awake. My eyes widened in realization and  stumbled backward, resulting in my back hitting the moveable table. But since the table was moveable, it didn't hold my weight instead it slid off the floor, making me fall on the ground with a thud.

"Ooofff" Fuck it! My butt hit the floor so hard that I couldn't feel it. Pain coursed through my body and I heard Sebastian's worried voice.

"Are you okay?" I was too embarrassed to look him in the eyes now but I had to so I did. He crouched down and helped me get up by placing my hand over his shoulder and holding me by my waist to support my weight. His touch sent shivers down my spine, even in that moment when the pain in my butt was killing me.

"You Okay?" He repeated his question while placing me on the bed.

"I'm sorry. I'm not a person anymore. I'm a problem" I mumbled under my breath but I'm sure he heard it.

This is awkward. Even he was feeling awkward or maybe that's what I thought because as soon as I looked up, he was smirking. At that moment I wanted to dig myself a grave. I was blushing hard! My face, it was on fire. I was caught off guard when he bent so that he could get closer to my face. I blinked a few times which made him smirk, again! I bit my lip hard and regretted it when his eyes landed on my lips and that's what made me nervous. I was hoping someone would come and save me today.

Suddenly, he started leaning in. My brain became foggy at his closeness. I closed my eyes and pursed my lips, reflexively. When his lips came in contact with my ear, I felt goosebumps forming all over my body.

"Pervert" He whispered against my ear. His voice sent shivers down my spine and it took me whole good minute to register what he said and when it clicked, my eyes shot open but he was nowhere to be seen. I breathed out, god knows for how long was I holding my breath.

"How dare he!" I scoffed and folded my arms over my chest.

And I blushed, my cheeks crimson red due to embarrassment and nervousness. What am I doing? Or should I say What is he doing to me?

-----------------------------

Still in my hospital gown, I went outside the infirmary since I've been here inside this room for a week. I was regaining my energy but as much as I hate hospitals, Isabelle and Sebastian weren't letting me out of this place!

When I went outside, I was surprised to see too many supernatural beings, some working and some as patients, here in the hospital. Some were warlocks which I could tell by their long strange fingers, whereas some were nymphs which I could tell by their beauty! Nymphs are said to be the prettiest creatures alive. Well, some were sirens as well just like Dr. Park. Their black eyes makes them stand out which is scary and pretty, both at the same time.

I looked here and there to make sure Dr. Park was nowhere to be seen or else he'll stop me from coming out of my room. Anyhow, I managed to go outisde and after inhaling the fresh air, although it was cold it still calmed me. I feld exhilarated. Looking at my surroundings, I saw the palace near the infirmary. It was close. I thought it wasn't. Since it was, I decided to go back.
