The next day, he was informed that a billionaire is coming to their adoption center, and to his surprise, the billionaire decided to adopt him. 'This guy is suspicious.

Chapter 1: Arrival

Time skip to two days. I arrived at my new home. It looked surreal. It was a big mansion with a huge ass entrance and damn it looked like one of those British mansions in movies.

It was beautiful. I got out of the car and walked into the mansion. It slapped! The walls were high and the ceiling was carved. It showcased a woman playing with a goat and it reminded me of the cover of a children's book named Heidi.

"Jason." Dad called. This took my attention away from the ceiling and towards the helpers of the house. Their uniforms made them look so good. I have started to actually think of him as my real dad. He's really nice. Many might say, it was too soon, but for a person who's craved love all his life, I think this is not so fast. I really want to call him dad but I am refraining from it a bit.

"Yeah?"

"Come here please." He is very formal with me atm. And it's good to be that way. You see people might mistake your kindness for your weakness. So at times if you get royalty treatment, accept it like you deserve it.

I went to him. He started, "So these are all the helpers of this household, if you need anything do ask them and they will try their best to help you. I will assign you a PA tomorrow morning, after that you can just ask him for anything and he will do the necessary arrangements. Ok?"

"What's a PA?"

"A personal assistant."

"Wow"

"He would mostly be there for your work related issues like answering emails, or phone calls or scheduling your appointments, etc. You will also get a male staff for other things related to your personal life. And now let me introduce you to Kameron, he is the butler of the house, then comes Kyle, he is the house manager. Then the ones wearing white uniforms are the kitchen staff and then there's maids too to help you around. Any questions you have?" That was a lot to take in. So much so that I just smiled wryly. I have no idea what half of the terms he used means. I will have to search later on.

"I don't."

" Do you want to rest now or do you want to see the mansion?"

"See the mansion!" I said quickly. I am so damn excited to check out this beauty.

He smiled and said, "Ok then."

*****

The mansion was situated in a place outside the city and connected to the southern side of it.

This allowed for the Regar family to have an inbuilt gym, a swimming pool, a building to park their cars, and they have a lot of cars. I should never underestimate billionaires. The area outside the city was connected to the forest and dad said if I go deep enough I can reach the forest where I was on that day when he saw me jump down on the highway. Ahh that was embarrassing.

They even had made a gameroom for me. Oh Mah Gawd! These people are gonna spoil me rotten. And this was so amazing. I just love how I got so many amenities. The mansion also had a library in it. This was an ancestral mansion which was preserved properly. That's why the library kinda reminded me of those 16th century huge ass libraries shown in movies. Moreover, if you would just go around the mansion, you would see many antique pieces kept as a decoration which added to the beauty of it.

This old mansion was luxurious and gave off a really nostalgic old vibe which I love for some reason. To think I would be staying here...

I just love it. It feels like I am in some period drama. And also the fact that I can actually just go on to any of these rooms makes it all so interesting.

"Wanna see your room next?"

"Sure." Yup this is it!

We went down the hallway and took some turns and reached a room. I would say my room was far away from the entrance. So far that I even forgot how I reached here. It was on the third floor and the roof was shaped like a dome which was made of glass. In front of the door was a balcony kinda thing through which I could see the floors below.

"What are you thinking?" He asked.

"If I jumped down the balcony, I would be in front of the back exit leading to the glass house that you asked me not to visit because it was being repaired."

"W-why would you jump down from here?"

"Sorry?" I think he said something but I didn't hear it well.

"Nothing." He said. He seemed a bit scared. He turned towards his right and talked to a man beside him to respond with a 'yes sir.' What is this all about?

"So yes, you will have one bodygaurd by your side 24/7 and I already told you about the personal assistant, right?"

"Yes but I don't need one bodyguard in the mansion."

"Oh you sure do."

"I don't, d-" I almost called him dad. Shit I need to control it.

"You need it more than you think you do. Come on in now." Mr.Mathew opened the door and signalled the people following him to wait outside.

"Hey wait." I followed him in and he closed the door when I entered the room.

"I don't need anybody-" He put his index finger on my mouth. I felt shivers down my spine. This aura again...

I looked up at him. He was smiling but that smile seemed evil. It felt ominous. And then I suddenly noticed something strange. Dad's eyes had turned green from golden.

It was the same shade of green like the demon I released.

Having your eye colour change is a bad sign. And the fact that I can see it without using scanning ability is really freaking me out.

But above all, a serious question takes up all my worries, is he... possessed?
