30 Chap 30:- Bathing Room

Yuuna brought me inside our small room.

"From today we are slave mates!" She gave me a big smile and grabbed my arm and pulled me inside.

"Ouch ouch, easy..." I groaned because the place where she grabbed my arm had stitches and they would bleed when pressure was applied.

"Oh... Sorry I will bring some water." She rushed to a small room and came out with a vessel full of water and a small cloth dipped inside.

She made me seated on the bed and wiped off the blood from my arm.

"I'm sorry... I didn't notice..." Seeing her sad made me feel disappointed, I felt as if I ruined her mood.

"It's alright, it was unintentional." I smiled at her.

Her eyes moved to mine and her pretty smile re-appeared.

It felt good to see her happy.

"You are soo kind! You are a great man." She grinned and jumped and sat beside me.

"Woah you are soo energetic!" I was surprised to find someone soo cheerful and happy inside a slave camp.

"Hehe, I will accept any challenge life throws at me, and I will never feel down ever!" She smiled and lay beside her smile still on her face.

Her eyes were in the direction of the ceiling. I wonder what she is thinking about.

"The sky." She said.

"Ahh... I forgot you can read my thoughts." I scratched my head and smiled awkwardly, thinking what she might have thought when I said her pretty almost a million times inside my head.

"Haha haha, oh God... Zeno." She laughed until she became short on breath.

"Hey... No need to laugh, I don't have a habit of being with the person who can read my thoughts." I sighed, I felt a little ashamed of myself.

"Aww, come here cutie." She grabbed my clothes and pulled me down.

"Woah!" I was surprised by her reaction.

She hugged me and patted my head. "There there, no need to feel down it's alright."

I couldn't hold myself and blush, "Yeah..."

She closed her eyes and continued, "So where will Zeno sleep?" She asked with her eyes closed.

"I can sleep over there," I pointed to the floor, as there were extra pairs of blankets and bed sheets I don't mind sleeping on the floor.

"No way!!" She opened her eyes and puffed her cheeks, and gave me a scary yet cute glare.

"Uh... What's wrong." Everything about this girl is surprising.

"How can you sleep on the floor? They don't give us brooms or mops, and the janitor comes only once a month!" She still had her cutely angry face.

"It's alright, we don't fall sick..." I tried to skip her questions but... Girls don't give up easily.

"No!! Even if we don't fall sick you cant sleep on the floor." She kept on glaring at me.

"Then... Where should I sleep..." I gave her the decision to choose my sleeping place.

She pointed her index finger to the bed on which we were resting.

"Right here?" I couldn't believe my ears.

"Hmph!" She nodded still glaring at me.

"And you?" I can't let her sleep down instead of me.

"Here." She replied.

"You... Mean this bed?" For a second I thought we had two beds.

"No, this bed on which we are right now." She replied.

"We... We will sleep on the same bed...?" I was shocked by her decision.

"Yup we will!" She dug her head inside the pillow and wrapped her arm around me.

"But... It is not the right thing to do..." I couldn't agree with her decision.

"You mind??" Gave me a super scary look, and it was clear if I say no, she will kill me.

"No no! Why would mind, I was just thinking too much..." I replied and rest my head beside her.

"Good boy." She smiled again and closed her eyes.

"Take a nap." She was almost asleep.

"Right now? It's only four pm..." I said.

"Our day starts at twelve am, that our morning." She replied.

"Oh, okie I will try to sleep right now." I closed my eyes and soon I sank into the ocean of dreams and imagination.

After having a good amount of sleep, my mind and body finally decided to wake up.

My arms were wrapped around something, and I could smell something nice.

"Good morning." Yuun greeted me.

When I opened my eyes I found her face only a few inches away from mine.

"What are you doing??" I panicked on seeing her soo close.

"Hehe, have a look around you dummy." She giggled.

I moved my gaze towards her belly area, and I found my arm wrapped around her.

"I'm soo sorry!!" I was embarrassed of myself, how can I hug a girl when she was asleep.

"Haha, it's alright, you didn't do anything weird, you just kept bumping your head into mine." She giggled again.

"Sorry... Did you sleep well?" I was concerned because I thought I messed up her sleep.

"I did, to be honest, I was very comfortable today." She smirked and closed her distance from me.

"You... You are teasing me." I couldn't help but blush.

"Dam, You are soo cute when you blush!" She squeezed me and patted my head.

I didn't reply, it's just... I never felt this much warmth... Even grandpa Hyun couldn't give me this much warmth. I want to be with her like this... Maybe im being selfish... Or im not keeping her feelings in mind... But I can't help. (Authors pov: He forgot that she can read his mind.)

She gave me a sweet smile and patted my head. "Let's get ready guards will be coming within ten minutes."

"Oh, alright so... We just have to go there right?" I asked her with a confused look because it seems she was laughing at me.

"No no, take off your clothes and wear the ones they left for you, you want to mess up your good clothes?" She pointed to an old set of white clothes.

"Oh ok, so where should I change?"

"Here." She replied.

"What??? Here??? Really??" She laughed at seeing me react like that.

"Yeah, I will turn around if you don't feel comfortable." She replied.

"It seems I have no other option..." I gulped down my shame and quickly stripped myself naked.

"Are you done?" She almost turned around.

"No!!!" I yelled, I didn't want her to see me naked.

"Haha, sorry I was just messing." She giggled and waited patiently.

"Done... You are soo mischievous." I sighed and stood beside her.

"All the slaves!! Come out!! It's time to bath." Guards stood outside and commanded in a loud tone.

"Don't be afraid Zeno, just take three dips and be together." She grabbed my hand trying to give me company.

All the twenty-five slaves were lined up with their roommates.

We all were sent into a closed room, and my nose picked a sharp scent... it was blood... It was dark so I couldn't confirm.

"Don't worry Zeno, be with me take off your clothes and will take the dips together." Yuun grabbed my hands more firmly.

"Ok..." I didn't revolt against going naked with her this time because I was really scared.

Lights we're tuned on... And the sight made my mind go blank.

A massive pool, with blood mixed in it... And many small black long creatures floating inside, those were leeches.

"Stay hold Zeno." She grabbed my arm and tried to pull me inside the pool... But my hemophobia didn't allow me to move.

"I cant... I cant... I have hemophobia! I can't withstand the sight of blood..." I panicked.

"What?? Listen, Zeno! Try to overcome it... They won't listen to your excuses." Yuun tried to pull me again, but I couldn't move.

"Hey, you freak? Why don't you jump in the pool? Trying to break the rules on the first day?" Guards rushed towards me as I was the only one out of the pool.

"I can't jump in... I have hemophobia!" I tried to explain but they were not ready to understand.

"Inform it to our boss!!" They grabbed my collar and pulled me out of the room.

"Zeno!!" Yuun tried to stop but she being a mere slave had no right to speak.
