Chantal's P.O.V
I am nervous and shit scared. It seems like life is playing games with me. So I decided to tag along by coming to this beast's den, speaking about his house, I mean mansion, no estate.
I honestly have no idea how somebody can stay in such a huge house without being frightened. No, not me. But it will be a lie if I say the interior is not breathtaking.
I used to believe that large homes like this could only be seen in movies. Oh boy! How did I get it wrong? I imagine myself to be in heaven.
Everything is golden, including the wall murals, art, and the large chandelier hanging over everything. Everything is set up just the way I would have liked it if this were my home.
"What is your name?"
I ask the man I am following. In reality, the eerie atmosphere of this mansion is freaking me out.
"My name is Bill, Miss Perez."
He answered in a polite tone, making me nod.
"Just call me Chantal."
"Sure Chantal, but I don't think Mr. Trevino would like that."
His words make my eyes roll.
"Who cares what he thinks."
Oh shit! I cover my mouth.
Why do I always have to open my smart mouth? Why can't I seem to control it? I am here to ask for his help and now I'm hoping I don't end up getting kicked out.
But what amuses me next is the man's laughter. I gulp, getting confused as we climb a flight of stairs.
"Um—"
"You are quite something, Chantal."
Bill turns to face me all of a sudden and I notice we are standing in a lavish area kind of a living room.
"Please have a seat, Miss Perez. I will be right back."
"Sure"
"Do you want anything to drink?"
"Yeah, just a glass of water would be nice, thank you."
It is obvious that my throat is dry from tension. Bill offers a warm smile that reminds me of my father and nods. I miss Papa, I think, as I see him heading towards another set of stairs, a maid walks out probably from the kitchen with a glass of water.
"Thank you"
"You are welcome, Miss."
I smile back at her while chugging the cold liquid down my throat. I wait and wait but there is no sign of that man. Urghh, where is he?
What is taking him so long to come downstairs and have a chat with me? I am left wondering as I hear footsteps. Thinking it is him I move my face only to see Bill.
"Mr. Trevino will see you now Miss Perez."
Finally, I think before following him upstairs.
I am aware that the beast has intentionally kept me waiting for an additional twenty minutes. We are walking through a long but wide hallway.
I stare at a room passing through it. Bill halts in front of a stylish golden door making me assume that this room is probably his.
"He is waiting for you inside."
"Thank you"
Bill leaves and I take in a deep breath and exhale.
My breath briefly halts as I push open the door and enter the room. Again, much as in the movies, the room is extravagantly luxurious and impressive.
