Enchanted

CHAPTER 25

Belle's POV :

Fireworks.

That's what is going on in my mind. So Sempre Gritante is my family, who can use magic, and who are royalty ? Shit just hit the fan.

"Belle."

"Belle, are you here ?"

"Earth to Belle ?"

That last one was Eros, slightly shaking my shoulders, bringing me back to reality.

This doesn't seem like reality, more like fantasy.

"Yeah, I'm here", I replied to Eros, smiling slightly, though I was shaking on the inside.

"So, you guys are saying that there was magic involved when I was locked inside my room ?"

"Precisely", Flynn answered, " The proper way to explain the situation is that you couldn't open your door, because your room was not existing at all."

"This all seems unreal", I blurted out.

"I know but you seem to holding up pretty well", Hector sounded amazed.

"Trust me, I've shut down mentally", I said honestly, "Don't know when I'll break down."

"I'll be there when it happens", Eros grabbed my hands and squeezed them lightly in assurance. I smiled at him, grateful for him. I didn't realize we were staring at each other until Flynn cleared his throat.

"Is there something going on here ?", Flynn asked suggestively, arching his eyebrows.

"Nothing that you should know", Eros replied coldly, though it had no effect whatsoever on Flynn, who was just grinning brightly.

He really is immune to His Royal Highness Eros...

"So are we done here ?", Ryan spoke up from the corner of the room.

"AHH !!! ", Hector jumped from his seat after hearing his voice, "When did you come in ?"

That was a shock to me as well, because the guy was as huge as The Hulk, and yet no one noticed him.

Damn, these people have very weird abilities...

"I was always here", Ryan muttered.

He reminded me of Drax the Destroyer from Guardians of the Galaxy, except that this guy has a very baby face.

The world is really strange.

I sighed, making Eros give me a questioning look. I shook my head, not wanting to explain my vivid yet unrealistic imagination to him. Drax the Destroyer with a baby face. No, definitely can't explain that.

"Yes Ryan, we're done here", Eros concluded, "unless anyone wants to add anything ?"

"Eros, I want to talk with you ", Flynn uttered in a grave voice. Both of them shared a look, before Eros nodded.

"Go to my office, I'll join you in a moment."

After bidding goodbyes to me, Hector and Ryan, Flynn went upstairs, probably to Eros' office.

Soon, everyone left, leaving me and Eros in the dining room.

"Belle, I have to discuss something with Flynn ", he started, " Will you be alright alone ?"

"Yeah, absolutely", I assured him, "I'll just go to sleep."

He chuckled at that, "Of course you want to sleep."
