The Royal Tutor's Assistant

Chapter 24

Heine's pov,

The sunlight peek through the curtains, I groaned and woke up only to find Elizabeth on the same bed and n-naked!*blushes hard*

It took me for a moment to realize what happened last night, that drug that Mandrake made me drink and the embarrassing events I'd rather forget, I slowly separate myself from her and stilled for a moment,

'Why is her breast full of bruising bites?'- I asked myself, its not insect bites because there a few teeth marks here and there,

Before I could sit up I remembered, I blushed hard,

'Damn what did she do before we sleep? She could've had stop me! There was no act of resistance or anything at all! Did she just let me do this?!'- I asked myself as I sit up and took my glasses,

I heard her groan, I look at her as she showed a pained expression before she curled herself up, her kimono was in her arms, I reached for it and slowly put it on her, and covered her with the blanket,

'From her explanation last night, there were a few symptoms of Aphrodisiac, I do hope that this event will be sealed behind closed doors,'

"H-Heine?"- I look back at her only to find her looking at me tiredly, now that I mention it I feel quite refreshed, but that's not the case here,

"What is it?"- I asked her, she closed her eyes and smiled,

"Glad to have you back as you are"- She said as she slowly sit up from the bed,

'Hmmm... she seemed sluggish, why is that?''-I thought as I look at her tie her kimono,

"We'll arrive by afternoon to Hong Kong, Xhan Lau's post"- She said go towards the bathroom, I waited a few minutes but she's still not out, I knocked on the door, calling her, but she wasn't answering, and I can hear water flowing down the floor inside, I turned the knob, it was open, I opened the door and look inside, the bathtub was overflowing, I go towards there and turn off the faucet, I noticed a hand inside the water, when I look-

"E-Elizabeth!"- I shouted, carrying her in my arms and settling her to the floor, Did she just drowned now in purpose?! Whats happening to her?!

I bent down to put my ear near her heart, it was still beating, I did the CPR to her and then she coughed out water, I assisted her as she sits up and catch her breathe,

"H-Heine-"

"Whats your problem?! What happened to you?! What's wrong with you Elizabeth?!"- i asked, this thing just shook me up in the morning! And last night's embarrassing events too!

"Those bite marks on your breast! And now you almost drowning in the bathtub! Why did you let this happened?!"- I asked annoyed,

"Isn't it obvious?"- She asked me, her voice void any emotions, I look at her in the eyes,

"...If I gave you back your life... Will you stop hating me?"- She asked me seriously, my eyes widened,

'What... what?!'

Before I could say anything she stood up and left me behind,

'This is it, a chance to go back to where I came from, a chance to get away from this riot, but why? Why can't I say yes? Why can't I nod and let it all happen?'

When I got out of the bathroom, Drake was there anxiously pacing in the room,

"Drake"- I called him, he perked up and look at my way,

"Ah yes! Heine-sama here is your clothes," - he said and look away obviously distracted,

"Drake... Elizabeth is acting weird today"- I told him, he hummed and nodded,
