50 Chapter 48: Were Done Here 2 (2/2)
”Yeah...I had to intervene before something drastic happened to you..” Loki said
”What do you mean?” Ivery looked down and her eyes stretched wide
Ivery saw the dead body of a maid...she was split in half from her chest to her head...
”Oh...nevermind, I...understand..” Ivery didn't need to know anymore...she concluded from being in the basement and the corpse of a maid...meant she was going to be locked up and tortured
”We...can go.” Ivery held onto Luther
He nodded.
Luther and Ivery disappeared into a cloud of black mist.
...
Ivery and Luther entered another town..and this time, Ivery created a black mask for Luther to cover his face from attracting any more attention. But the mask only covered his mouth and nose.
While he could change his appearance anytime he wanted, Ivery felt more content being able to see his real face rather than a strangers...so she thought up a mask for him to wear instead.
”We'll sleep here for the night.” Luther pointed at a nearby inn
”Mhm..” Ivery followed him towards the inn
..
Once they checked into the inn and paid the night stay, there was only a two-bedroom available and it cost more than a single bed...but it didn't matter much to them.
”It's honestly more refreshing to know that I don't have to go back to that place..” Ivery sat on one of the tan silk-sheet beds
”I know..” Luther nodded as he took of his mask
”The only downside is that...I can't protect those kids from the maids now...” Ivery looked down
”I swear one day I'll free them..” Ivery was determined to set that as her new goal
”They'll definitely be free one day because you're the most capable person I know.” Luther smiled
”I am?” Ivery smirked
”Of course.” He smiled wider
”Let's get some sleep..” Luther turned off the room lights with a snap of his fingers
Ivery nodded and laid down on the bed..
...
Ivery opened her eyes and fidgetted in her dress..
She sat up and decided she wanted something easier to sleep in..
”Hmm..” Ivery smiled and realized she could literally make her own clothes
She thought of a thin yet comfortable white t-shirt, and a pair of blue striped shorts that she owned in her original life.
Both pairs of clothes materialized in her hands. Now all she needed to do was change into them..

There wasn't a personal bathroom in this room..so.
She had to change in this room..
She turned her head and saw Luther was sleeping on the other bed, with his back facing her. She got out of bed and quickly slipped out of the black dress she wore. She tried her best to be quiet, not trying to wake Luther up.
She slipped on the shorts first.
Ivery looked up to make sure he was still asleep..
She immediately covered her chest once she saw that...Luther was now awake, staring at her.
”H-How much did you see..?” Ivery blushed
”Not much sadly...” Luther sat up
”Can..you turn around?” Ivery felt embarrassed
”I don't know if I want to..” Luther smirked
”Fine.” Ivery grabbed her shirt with one hand and turned around to face the wall
She slipped the t-shirt on and pulled it down.
”Not fair.” Luther chuckled
”Oh well..” Ivery grinned and walked around her bed
She stood beside his bed and looked at him..
”Is it okay if I sleep next to you?” She asked
”Come here..” Luther moved over and patted the empty space beside him
Ivery smiled and got in bed.
She pulled the sheets up and over her and turned on her right side to face Luther.
”Comfortable?” He asked
”Very.” She nodded
”Good.” He pulled her closer to him
She snuggled closer to him, locked in his embrace. She closed her eyes, ever so content in his surrounding warmth.
