Otome

-Snow-

As much as I didn’t want to admit it Candy was right. Everyone else just watched me kill everything that wasn’t them. I’m probably the last one they want to have opening their cages.

“Alright.” I muttered and turned around and squatted down for Candice. I didn’t have to say anything to her and she got on my back. “I’m sorry for the smell.” I told her as I hooked my arms under her legs and stood up straight again.

“Go straight back to the castle.” Talon said to me as he slowly got up.

“I know I’m going.” I said then made my way out of the castle.

“Your hair is so short now.” Candy said to me as I was sprinting with her on my back through the forest.

“My hair is actually the seal that keeps that side of me sealed. Right now I’m lucky I’m not still like that. Thank you for bringing me back.” I told her.

“Will you be okay?” She asked a bit worried.

“We’ll see what happens when we get back to the castle. I didn’t see Lady Amora anywhere while I was searching for everyone so I’m guessing that she managed to hide herself somewhere before everything happened.” I replied. “I’ll more then likely get the seal placed back on me, but for what my punishment will be for breaking it I don’t really know.”

“I’m sure that it won’t be too terrible.” She said but she didn’t know Lady Amora that well. She could think of some cruel and unusual punishments sometimes. I feel like it was more for her amusement.

“You’re going to need another bath.” She added.

“I’ll get the blood out myself.” I said quickly. I wasn’t about to take two baths in one day.

“Snow, you need to take a bath.” Candy said with a more demanding voice.

“Oh are you trying to tell me what to do?” I smirked a bit.

“Y-You need one.” She stuttered.

“No I don’t.” I answered back as I slowed down getting to the gates of the castle walls.

We were back home. “How’s your arm?” I asked her changing the subject as I kicked one of the large doors open so I could get us both through.

“It’s fine.” She answered as I squatted down to let her down so I could close the gate properly.

“Will you let me see it?” I asked turning back to her.

She blushed a little and looked away as she held out her arm. I gently unwrapped it. It was a deep cut with my teeth marks around it. I leaned down and lightly kissed it. The sent of her blood was still there and I had to force myself to stay calm. With the seal broken I could lose it at any moment and I really shouldn’t push it.

“S-Snow.” She said and I smile a little and stood up straight as I wrapped her arm up once again.

“A kiss is supposed to make it better right?” I said then took her hand in mind and we walked back to the castle.

“I need new clothes.” She sighed as I looked back down at her she ended up getting blood all over her from me. This made my heart hurt.

“Your clothes that you wore here should be cleaned by now and in your room. If you wanted different clothes you should probably talk to Lady Amora to see if you can get some.” I told her.

I wasn’t going to dare go into the goddess room to see if she was there. I really didn’t want to know what my punishment was. When we made it to the goddess room I let go of Candy’s hand. “I’ll be in my room. You talk to Lady Amora first.” I smiled and before she could protest I walked away and to my room to relax.

I’m sure that she was going to come to my room at some point, but being alone was probably the better option right now. I’m sure that she would be able to get more clothes. It wasn’t too long after I sat down on the floor so I wouldn’t get any blood on my bed that there was a knock on my door.

“It’s open.” I said.
