"Tell me what you're after." Mute repeated herself to the demon in front of her. Sebastian was shocked to witness this. He could hear her thoughts within his own head. She was communicating to him through telepathy. 

"My, would you look at that." Sebastian smirked. "So, this is what you can do along with your abilities. How very interesting indeed." 

"Tell me." Mute glared.

"It should be quite clear to you now, Milady. It is you who I am after." He said. 

"I don't believe that for a second. You're playing with me." 

"Now why would I have the intentions of doing that? I have stated before that there is still so much more I need to learn about you, and I do not go back on my word." Sebastian drew his face closer while cupping Mute's face in his hand. 

Mute continued to glare at Sebastian before shaking his hand off her face and avoided his gaze. "You won't get the chance to know anything about me. You're a demon. You find this sort of thing amusing to ease your boredom... You don't give a damn about anything." 

So quickly Mute was pinned onto the bed with both of her wrist on either side of her. Her eyes widened at the sudden force as she looked at Sebastian with shock. Sebastian's expression was blank as he held her down. "It is you who does not understand a thing. I believe I have let you do as you please a bit too freely." He leans down, causing Mute to shut her eyes. 

He can feel and hear him inhale her scent before exhaling huskily in her ear. 'So close...' She breathed out a groan. 

"You've been hiding yourself. You're filled with despair." Sebastian said in her ear. Mute opened her eyes and looked at him, knowing he was right. She couldn't deny it. Nor could she lie about it. "Soon, my dear, you will begin to understand." He whispered before getting off of her. 

Mute stayed lying down to process what had just occurred. 'He doesn't know what he's talking about...' She frowns. 'I showed him what I can do because it's better than talking... Why do I keep coming back to him?... His aura... I should have gotten over it by now... Why does it still linger?' Mute buried her face in the pillow and hugged it tightly. 

After a few more moments, Mute got up from the bed and left the room. She decided to stick around and roam. Maybe that would ease her own boredom and to get herself out of her own head. 

Mute appeared where she heard the most commotion. Appearing in the same room where Sebastian would be at, she saw two new faces that she hadn't seen before. Two Indian Men dressed in much different attire. Soma & Agni. She didn't know when they had arrived in the town house mansion, nor did she hear them until now. 

'Who are they?' She wondered, but shook her head, no longer being interested. She was going to leave until Soma had caught his eye. 

"Oh! And who is this?" Soma made his way over to Mute to get a better look at her. Mute stood in her place as she eyed the dark-skinned human. 

"She is an acquaintance of ours. Unfortunately, she cannot speak." Sebastian introduced her while wearing a completely different attire than the one he was wearing before. Almost dressed like a tutor. 

"Such dark features. I wonder why she cannot speak." Soma continued to scan Mute's body. 

Mute didn't seem bothered by this as she looked back at Soma and Agni. She had questions of her own that she was wandering about. Like Agni's bandaged hand for an example. 

"She is a very beautiful woman, I must say." Agni commented and Mute bowed her head while closing her eyes, gesturing a 'thank you'. Her eyes then wandered to the statue that was in the room. She raised an eyebrow before glancing at Sebastian was giving her a blank expression. She could almost feel the tension from his gaze. 

Mute decided to stick around to see how the humans went along with their day. Why not see what humans do in a very big house? She was usually a night person, but why not try something different, as Miko would tell her. Not like she had much of a choice to begin with if Sebastian was going to watch her like hawk from the way he looked at her moments ago. 

'Not much to watch. Just a lot of activity.' Mute sighed with her thoughts and began to roam around the house. She scanned the room while entering inside as if she were looking for something specifically. 

"I'm not a piece of cake for you to just discard
While you walk away with a frosting on my heart
So I'll take it back
What's mine you'll miss a slice of heaven that I gave to you last night~" 

Mute began to sing to herself in a low tone, being careful not to be too loud for Sebastian to hear her. Her fingertips traced along the bookshelf as she sang to herself. Her mind wandered off as the song in her head played out. Her eyes began to become clouded lost in thought. Her nails began to turn black as they grew sharp as they clawed against the bookshelf. 

Mute's eyes glowed with hatred as her emotions matched her song. She even bared her teeth while growling like some sort of wolf. So much hatred filled the room due to her aura. 

"So respectfully~" 

Her eyes widened and threw the books off the bookshelf as she smirked with evil intentions. She giggled to herself and twirled, being in her own little world. But it was soon ruined when her wrist was grabbed and raised. Everything had stopped for Mute when seeing who was holding her. 

Mute glared, surprised to see him. She didn't hear him come in. Or was she that far gone in her own head and song. Mute's eyes fell to the side to avoid eye contact. She didn't want Sebastian seeing her like this. She felt vulnerable. 

Having Mute in his arms like this made Sebastian grow hungry for her. But he couldn't control himself. He leaned down and began to kiss her neck. Mute squeaked like a mouse before biting her lip to prevent anymore sounds from escaping. 

Sebastian wrapped one of his arms around her waist tightly to keep her in place. Mute groaned as her legs shook. "Wait." Mute shoved him away. "No..." She calmed herself down. 'I can't... It's too soon... Not again...' 

Sebastian stared at her with hunger in his eyes. He pulled her close to his chest, hugging her as he replied, "I understand, Milady" Sebastian gently kissed her forehead before leaving the room. Mute frowned and looked down in shame. Shame of herself. She can only blame her emotions. And she hated it. 

'What a broken soul.' Sebastian could only think as he returned to his duties. 'So fragile and scared. A mystery indeed... Yet her aura is all I can sense from her. So dark. Cold. Ruthless. All of her. Her sweet bitter darkness...' 

"If I'm just a piece of cake...I'm just a piece of cake...
Then you're just a piece of meat, you're just a piece of meat to me~"
