Mary was overthinking from morning, she can't believe that Reaper can be that soft, after what he had done, she can't protest his words too. Then someone knocked on door and call her name.
"Signorina, it is time, open the gate, let me dress up you" it was Rose,the old maid and most respected by Reaper.
She opened the gate and smile warmly looking at Mary, she take her hands and take her out of room, Mary see behind, there was five more young maids, taking dresses and accessories.
"Should I really go to him? It...will be alright...if he...do something with me?" She said in fear tone
Rose chuckles softly, taking her to spring bathroom (so large) and she point other maids to keep the dresses and accessories and leave, as they all leave, Rose look at her
"Now let's make you bath once more, then dressing up into a blooming flower."
Mary blink twice and blush harder
"What...I-i can bath myself, i dont need help..."
Rose smile warmly and take her hands
"Hey, come on, you are signorina, and i am here to help you, don't shy."
Mary looked at her eyes, then sigh and nodded. She undress herself and step inside the hot spring.
Rose clean her body, then she chooses Reaper's favourite colour and dress type for Mary, and baby's breath to decorate her braid, final results she was looking so beautiful and perfect sign of innocence.
Rose cup her cheek
" Signorina you are looking really looking so much beautiful, now lets go to the south terrace garden, Signor is waiting."
She take her hand and walk to South terrace garden, Mary was really scared, what if Reaper do something with her, or he is upset from her and kill her...
Finally they reached, Rose open the door, Repear was already, sipping his wine, he looked at directly at Mary, Rose bows and leave. Reaper...he was freeze looking at Mary, with his favourites dress type and colour, and without his acknowledgement he blushed. He shake his head and get back from his dream.
"So you are finally arrived, really Rose make you more like beauty of heaven."
He really praised her, because she deserves.
Mary on the other hand, wasn't meeting her eyes to his, she is still scared.
Reaper take step towards her, and take her hand, without hesitation he walks grabbing her hand towards edge of the terrace garden, he smile looking at a abondend building.
"So you are innocent Psychiatrist, right? I bought you in my world, because i need something from you..."
Mary blinks and looked where he was looking.
"My...help?"
Reaper nodded, and squeezes her hand gently.
"Yes, your help, and you cant deny it, so...my question start, is in your family is there was any psychiatrist too? Male...one...your brother... cousin...anyone..."
Mary looked at his face, it was like switch from flushing to sudden sadness, like trauma.
"My family do–....
(Continue)
Mary looked at Reaper...and-
"My family....don't know...I don't know...my parents died when I was very young...and I never asked my grandparents, and they also....died recently."
Reaper face was blanked looking at me, he sighed softly.
"Okay...no problem...you can go to your bedroom...if you...want..."
Reaper stay there...and Mary started going back...but she stopped at mid... looking at a flower...she first look at Reaper then back to flower...she loses that flower's beauty so she slowly go to it.
She smile softly looking at it.
"What a beautiful flower... what it is called..."
Then her Spine shivered down...as she felt slender fingers, coiled around her waist...
"You love this flower...my mother also does love it. I-it...is called....Jade vines."
His voice at the name sound broken...but he composed himself and grab Mary hand and guide it to the flower.
"Isn't it beautiful? Like you...like someone else too..."
Mary looked up at his eyes, now she is trying to understand him...what is beneath in his this wild form? A beast or innocence?
