❝There but not there❞

.•*•.

The car ride is silent as we go to the hotel. I'm still in awe of the air plane and I can't wait to go back in it, because it really made me feel like I was a princess. There were staff that got us everything we wanted and I mean everything. If I asked for something to eat or drink they would get it for me, no matter what it was. I'm still feeling a bit nervous around him, he did not speak to me in the plane and neither did I speak to him so I kept silent too.

Most of the time I looked outside the window and just thought about everything, sort of like I'm doing now. Paris is beautiful and everywhere I look, I see something that I like. And I'm smiling to my ears here and I can't stop. This is amazing. However, I do feel a bit nervous to be with him still and I don't know why it's just my nerves are always so tense when I'm around this one man, perhaps because he's cruel and evil and the Devil as people call him.

Or maybe it is the fact that he's my husband, a husband that I don't know nor do I love. The car stops in front of the hotel that we will be staying at and he goes out first and I follow behind him. He walks into the hotel with me beside him and I'm a bit afraid to look up at him because I took a split-second glance earlier and his face was so hardened and cold that I thought I was looking at the actual Devil and not a man that acts like the Devil himself.

The hotel makes me want to live there, everything is so beautiful and I love it, it's just marvelous. This must have cost a fortune for him but then again he's the richest man in the world, he does have more money than I can count to, I'm not sure if anyone can count that high. "Ah, Monsieur King, welcome to our magnifique hotel. We are very glad to have your présence and we wish you the best. This way, please Monsieur King" A French man says, I would guess the hotel manager or owner. His accent is thick and sometimes I had a hard time understanding him and especially when when he threw a few French words in there since I don't understand French.

The man doesn't even look my way as he walks off and Sebastian following him and I do too. He takes us to an elevator and a very fancy one, it's colored like gold or is it gold? I can't be sure but it looks fabulous like everything else. The elevator is big and it can at least hold twenty or more people in it or something. This is definitely the largest elevator I've ever been to.

Sebastian and the man starts talking in French and I honestly had no idea that he spoke French, but then again I really don't know anything about him. The elevator is quick and the numbers on the screen go higher with every second and it isn't until we're on the twenty-sixth floor that the elevator stops and the door opens. They walk first inside and when I walk inside my jaw literally drops. This is a penthouse which looks so beautiful. Everything is in marble style and it looks so beautiful. I'm speechless over here while Sebastian doesn't look it is that beautiful since he looks rather bored.

They say a few other things in French and then the other man leaves and not once does he take a look at me and that really made me sad but then again I'm not nearly as important as the man I'm married to, as sad as this thought makes me feel. "You will remain here at all times, if you need anything then call the room service and they will provide you with anything you'd like" Sebastian says then he walks back into the elevator and the doors close before I could say anything.

Sighing, I sit down on a bed in one of the rooms. I also I noticed that there are two bedroom, so even when we're married we don't get to sleep in the same bed, then again it's not like we have done that. In general, we don't even live together because I live in a apartment in his mansion while he lives, well... I don't know where but at least not with me. Why did I even think of that fact that we would be together in this as husband and wife? I was foolish of me to even have that thought cross my mind at all.

Looking around in awe and how beautiful everything is I end by going to the large window in the living room and I nearly have a panic attack when I see how high up we are. I back away from the window. I never knew I was afraid of highs before. I mean I looked outside the window in the airplane but I think that was a bit different, at least I was in a seat belt. Yeah, I did not take the seat belt off the whole way because honestly I was afraid to.

There is nothing to do here, there is a TV but it needs a passcode of some sort that is found on the receipt which I assume Sebastian has and there isn't a phone in here and neither do I have a phone on me so I'm trapped here without entertainment. And even if I were to go outside, I don't have any money nor do I have a way to get back in here but at least I can check things out. Making up my mind I go into the elevator and head down.
