Chapter 2: Beautiful Creature?

1834 Words
"Why am I still alive?" August whispered to himself once more. He was sure that he really died in that explosion. "Where exactly am I? No who am I?" He wondered as he slowly got up and rushed towards the bathroom because he suddenly thought of something. August stood in front of the mirror with mouth wide open as he looked at his new body. He quickly yanked off every fabrics on his body to get a better look at the smooth flawless skin. The body had the kind of face that stopped you in your tracks. A thick silk hair that was as dark as the night which rhymed perfectly with the dark eyes that was staring back at him through the mirror. A beautiful face. Well defined, with a sharp jaw and angular cheekbones. Pale and thin lips with slender and round nose and the strength of his neck showed in the twining cords of muscle that shaped his entire body; strong arm, bold thighs and calves, a firm chest and abdomen. He was truly the most beautiful creature that August had ever seen which made him to start blushing unknowingly. "But wait why am I blushing when this is clearly my body now?" August called himself to order. He felt like he was truly going crazy with his thoughts.  The fact that this extremely beautiful face he was looking at was him  had his mind blowing up with surprise. Normally, someone as small as him and was just a little or not handsome at all would definitely drool over such a body just like he was doing now as he practically hugged himself.  Should he feel happy and blessed for being in this body or should he cry instead? How perfect would it had been if he date someone as charming and enchanting as this rather than being in the body instead. But it was such a waste that he was stuck in the body too, ah. However, the most important question should be, "What happened to the owner of this god-like body? Did someone secretly murder him" August asked himself because by now he'd already figured out what was going on.  How could a writer like him that often wrote things like this in his previous life not know this fact? He he'd died in an explosion and somehow woke up in this big and handsome guy's body.  Awesome! But according the little that he'd seen earlier, the people here possess a supernatural power and from the creepy decorations in this person's room, he wouldn't be so easy to kill instead he should be the one that people dreaded the most. "Hmm" August sighed before turning to the big bathtub in the center of the bathroom; It was really big indeed.  He wanted to soak every part of him in the water and see whether his racing heart would calm down. But that proved difficult to achieve because in next seconds, "Ahhhhhhhhhh" August shouted and abruptly ran out of the bathroom. "God, looks like I have always been on the run ever since I woke up!" So it turns out that his so called father made those herds of snakes to disappear into the bathtub instead. Looks like surviving in this place is going to be a strong task! "Your highness" A male guard rushed into the room without knocking since his prince was in danger. Thus, he covered his face instantly upon getting the glimpse of a naked Prince. August also realized this fact and covered himself  with the bed sheet. "Get rid of those snakes in the tub, I don't need them now" August commanded calmly. "Your highness, those are your favorite pets" The guard replied nervously. "Of course I know that, just get rid of them I can ask for them when I need them" August commanded once more with yet a calm tone. At least to get an answer to his questions, he needed to act like a human with good sanity by brushing himself up, change to something good and walk around calmly. Only by calming himself down would he be able to find some answers to his questions. "Your highness, you're the only one that knows how to do so with the king" The guard pointed out with a fidgeting tone. "Just get out since you're so useless" August shouted angrily. "Yes, your highness" The guard said before dashing out from the room hastily. It was after seeing the manner of speed at which the guard had run out that August felt guilty for his outburst towards the guy. Clearly, it wasn't the guys fault and he'd taken out his frustration on him. "And why was he freaking out just know?" August thought as he ran a hand through his dishevelled hair and messing it up even the more. If only he knew how cruel and scary the owner of his body was! Talk about calming down; zero result, ah! August didn't want to see the man that was his father, at least for now, but he needed to shower so quickly. So what was he supposed to do? Seems like there was nothing to do but to postpone the issue of bathing to afterwards. Wouldn't he always acting abnormal alert the interest of other people? And they might start to suspect his identity too.  He needed to calm down and refrain from causing any huge chaos.  Thus, August decided to leave bathing for now and wash his face instead while he soaked a clothe with water and wipe his body as quick as he could with fear griping his whole being as he couldn't stand the fact that he was in the same room with thorns of snakes in the bathtub close to him. After doing so, August rushed out from the bathroom to the closet but he was also careful and worried that another set of snakes might be hiding somewhere. He opened the walk-in closet and gasped in shock as he abruptly froze in place. After regaining himself, August sauntered in slowly with his eyes widened upon what he was seeing. The walk-in closet was so big he that'd wondered if it was a luxurious shopping store. Moreover, it was filled with expensive looking stuffs; ranging from the shoes to the suits, coats and other casual wears. And judging from his status as the prince, they must have cost an arm and a leg. But the amazing and baffling thing was that, even though, the furniture and painting of the room was as white as the snow, with about three white big chandeliers in the ceiling which illuminated the whole place with their blue lights, every other things that could be found in the closet was black. August saw this whole wonder and felt dizzy.  Although the place was so beautiful with it's decorations, it's still looked eerie and scary too especially when he ransacked the whole place but couldn't find a single colored clothe apart from black.  Really scary! It made him to ponder seriously what sort of person the owner of his body was. "Was he the type that always appeared scary in a black suit or with a dark coat and a matching dark pants and black polo inside, he always looked so cold with his icy dark eyes like a lonely vampire. But with just one look, both women and men swooned at the sight of him no matter their s****l preference and one word passed from his thin lips had even the straightest of men flushing shades of red that no one ever knew was naturally possible?" August was already giggling like a fool while imagining these things in his head. "But come to think of it, what if this guy is so cruel that he can easily kill any of those his annoying admirers with just the snap of his finger" Immediately August thought of this, his inner self  abruptly went cold with fear and so he quickly looked for something more casual and wore; a black round neck and a black pants with a black shoe. Casual indeed! Nothing actually was casual enough in this closet, ah! He used his hand to comb the silk dark hair that was really messy through his handiwork and when he looked himself in the mirror, he looked so stunning and dazzling that it scared the s**t out of him. Before walking out of the closet, August applied a unique cologne that caught his attention to his body and it smelled so lovely; so manly. In his previous life, he often got bullied for possessing a feminine features which made him to become the type that always got stuck in his room while writing some stories about him and in those stories he was always the main protagonist; he also possessed the features of a handsome and big man which was opposite to his own small female-like body.  Who knew that one day he would eventually see himself in a real life, where he possessed the same physical features as the imaginary characters of himself. With his hands in his pocket, August left his room. "Your highness" He heard the servant's chorused which startled him; he really needs to get use to those unannounced greetings before they startled him to death. "Shouldn't you guys be somewhere else doing something useful instead of standing here like a creep?" August asked and even his serious and authoritative tone surprised himself. "Your highness, his Majesty asked us to guard you since you're not feeling fine" One of the guards explained with his head bent low, not just him, same with the next guard standing beside him. "You two can go, I'm better now" August commanded but then he suddenly found them useful because no matter what he needed people to be guarding him since he was knew to this place and didn't no how things worked here.  In fact, he doesn't even know the state, country or continent he was in and whether it was past or future, he couldn't tell too. "Don't go anywhere. You two should remain there, I'm not feeling fine yet" August suddenly said to the two guards that were now confused with his words. Apparently, the need for the guards to remain in guard at his entrance door was reasonable. Although others might think that he was the prince, only him knew the real truth, which was that the real prince was gone; he's dead and never coming back.  What if the murderer finds out that he was still alive and come to finish his work? August found himself sweating silently at this thoughts and goosebumps filled his body. "Where is the kitchen? I'm hungry" August requested without thinking. "Your high......" "Never mind" He raised his hand and stopped them after realizing what he'd done. "Oh God! Help me to survive here" August whispered to himself before walking down the long hallway to heaven knows where.
