Confusion Confusion

First thought- shock

Second thought- double shock.

Opening the door of the bathroom and finding a hot intruder sneaking into your room.

Sounds bookish, isn’t it?

But no, it was real in front of me in the real world, inside my room.

A very hot muscular back facing me, and an unadorable gasp leaving from my mouth.

So loud that it made the hot muscular back go stiff and their body to turn towards me.

My jaw dropped, eyes widening in disbelief, as if a sudden jolt of electricity has coursed through my veins leaving me momentarily stunned.

The man in front of me was unreal.

There was just something that was different about him, even though he looked like a normal human but those eyes, they begged to differ, they were glowing as if two emerald crystals have been embedded in those eyes.

“Who are you?” A deep heavenly voice broke me out of my reverie, making me realize that I was oh so shamelessly ogling the intruder in front me.

‘Wait, shouldn’t I be the one to question him this.’

“Who are you and how did you get into my room or moreover inside my house?” I retorted back, bombarding my questions all at once.

“Where is Vivian?” He backfired with one more question, were we just going to ask questions and who will give the answers, the next door neighbour.

“ Who is Vivian? And why should I answer your question, you will tell me who are you or else I will have to call the cops.” I needed to call the cops their was an intruder inside my room, nevertheless how hot he looked and maybe why I didn’t think about calling the cops I just got a little bit distracted.

‘What? a girl can get distracted.’

“ You will not call the cops, I’m not here to hurt you, I just want to know where is Vivian?” He spoke calmly but yet a dangerous undertone lying beneath that calm exterior and I swear I saw a glimmer in those inhuman eyes.

He was definitely not a thief. His posture demanded authority, even his attire screamed that he has just stepped out from an important meeting, he adorned a three piece black suit, his jet black hairs styled perfectly with only a single strand of hair falling and disturbing on his brows.

But I cannot trust a stranger, what if he is a kidnapper and wants to kidnap me. What if he is just putting up an act to lure me into his trap.

I know, I have read a lot of fiction.

I began making my way towards the nightstand near by bed all the while keeping a close eye at the stranger, who in return kept all his focus on me. Finally finding my phone, I picked it up only to drop it back again, because of a strong grip on my arm and colliding into a strong body.

What is with people having such inhumane strength.

He pinned me to him. His dark eyes boring holes into me daring me to oppose him. I matched my eyes to his and mustered a same glare in return. He is close, so close that I could feel his breath hitting on my skin, his skin a golden tan was smooth and flawless, not even a freckle or a mole decorating his face just a faded scar right above his dark arched eyebrows. His high cheekbone and prominent jawline were cut and angled to perfection making his straight defined nose to sit perfectly against his face. The hollow of his cheeks allowed the red lips to prone and looked plum against his skin.

But what caught my attention were the tattoo peeking beneath the shirt he wore, just a glimpse on his beautiful nape, making me wishing to see more of it.

“ I told you to not to call the cops, I’m not here to hurt you, I asked you a question and you need to give me the answer.” Again the deep voice pulling me out of my trance. I blinked once no twice, how the hell would I know who is Vivian?

“ I thought we are here to find Vivian.” A sudden voice heard from somewhere around the corner made me stumble back from the said man’s arms.

Glancing towards the voice only to find one more god standing in front of me, I mean one more intruder inside my room.

He had those same glowing eyes that the man beside me had, but the only difference was his were a pale yellow, huh? I have never seen a pupil’s colour like his.

“ Where is Vivian?” here goes the same question, what was it with them searching Vivian?

“Who are you and how did you get inside?”

“ That doesn’t matter. Where’s Vivian?” Did he just discarded me like that. He waved my question off like I was the one intruding into my own house.

“ Yeah, where’s Vivian?” once more if somebody ask me this question, I swear I will rip their head off.

Patience Aurora, patience.

But this time neither of the said man spoke but some other voice walked into the room, one more god stepping into the room, yet again with those same glowing iris but with a grey colour pupil.

I didn’t knew there was a fashion show happening in my room.

Where were this models coming from.

“Where is viv- woah.” Thank god he stopped their, his head is safe for now. And guess what?

Another guy but this time with a crystal blue iris

Did I kept my front door open?

“ And who’s this beautiful lady?” He scanned me from head to toe his gaze stopped right near my- we got it where.

“ You look cute in a towel.”

A towel,

Who the hell is wearing a towel?

Me.

I’m fucking standing in a towel inside my room, surrounded by four hot men around.

I want to dig my grave and bury myself in it.

But before I could do that a loud crash from the living room diverted our attention, making the four men go stiff and walk out of my room.

I took the chance and quickly changed into a random t shirt that was discarded around the room and a bottom, anything to get rid of this stupid towel.

As soon as I placed my foot out of the room, my hand flew to my mouth muffling an involuntary gasp to escape. Surprise stole the air from my lungs leaving me breathless.

The four men from before were now accompanied by two other women, both of them looking like they have just stepped out from a beauty pageant.

They looked completely out of place standing in my tiny living room, which looked even more tiny, now with the giant group of muscles taking up the space.

They all stood around my sofa, and I swear I saw my sofa visibly shuddering beneath them, maybe that wasn’t the sofa, it was me.

All of them talking in some weird language, not talking but more like bickering.

“What the hell is going on in here?”

Who said that.

It was me, can’t believe I said that out loud.

So loud that I manage to divert their attention all at once towards me.

“Who is she?” the red haired woman hissed, her eyes narrowed, angry that I disturbed their conversation.

“ I’m the owner of the place where you are standing and I should be the one asking, who are you all and how did you get in here? And you will answer me right now or else I will have to call the cops.” I shouted, I am so near to losing my patience now.

Can’t believe how my night turned up like this.

“ Damn straight, girl has got some nerves here.” The crystal blue iris whistled, only to get a jab in the stomach by the black haired girl.

“ You got jealous, woman?” the guy surely had no shame and from the glare of the black haired girl, looks like he was going to get another jab soon.

“ Enough.” All at once everything went silent.

The authoritative voice belonged to the first intruder who walked into my room. The man surely had some power because the way they all stood silent just by his one word was impressive.

“ I have no fucking idea how the hell did you all manage to come here, but now that we are here let’s find Vivian. And Michael.” He glared towards the blue eyed, no shame guy, “ you will stop with your sneaky remarks or else you can return back.”

So, the blue eyed guy is Michael. Finally I can stop calling him a blue eyed guy.

But for now I still needed answers.

“ Now that you are done, will you do the favour and tell me who are you all and how did you even come here and who is this Vivian?”

 “ Vivian is Dane’s fiancé and we are here to find her.” The black haired girl pointed towards the first intruder.

He is engaged.

What a way to crush my fictional heart.

“ I hope that answered your question.” Dane stated in his bone chilling voice.

This man was scaring me in my own house.

“I still don’t know where are you all from and what are you doing here, in my apartment.” There were still a lot of questions surfing inside my head. If the front door was locked and the balcony’s door was closed too, then how did they even enter in.

“We are clueless too as to how did we end up being at your place.” The yellow iris one, who stood like a statue the entire time spoke.

“The light, the ball of light, was a door because of which we are here.” The red hair girl heaved a sigh. A light, what was she even talking about.

Nothing made sense.

Just then to answer my question a bright light shone from somewhere near my sofa. There was smoking coming out with streaks of golden and silver hues glistening around the ball of light.

And to my utter surprise, a man walked out.

Looking down I realised that he just stepped out from a book. What in the world was happening.

I think I’m going to faint now.

The man walked liked he owned the place. He looked like all the other people standing in the living room.

So does that mean that they all gout from this book. Were they some sort of fictional character.

“Axon, what are you doing here?” So they knew him. The man named Axon began talking in some gibberish language.

“Did you just step out of the book or are my eyes playing trick with me.” I rubbed my eyes, making sure what I was seeing was real or was it just another dream, was it just one of the illusion that I got while I was seated in the library.

“Your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you and yes he just stepped out of that book and not just he but we all have entered this world through that book.” Dane said as easily as he could manage.

“Woah, so are you saying that I stepped out of that book.” Seems like the grey pupil man was more shocked than me.

He moved near the book, and carefully picked it up. He scanned the book from every angle and looked at it as if the book in his hand would explode like a bomb anytime soon. And then he looked behind.

“Don’t you think the book is a little too small for us to enter.” Wow, he spoke as if he has done some really great discovery.

“Will you stop your antics Mathew.” The red haired girl muttered angrily, she had a permanent scowl etched on her face.

Suddenly a beep resonated in the air, it was coming from the room, I walked towards the sound, it was my phone alerting me about a notification. I picked up from where it was lying. Making my way out, I opened the notification tab.

It was a warning message. About an earthquake.

On the exact same time a slight shaking of the ground made me tremble from fear. Feeling the quivering of the earth, all the others went stiff and stoic and glanced at each other.

It was just for a second and the shaking stopped, but the same light erupted again from the book.

But this time rather than anybody coming out. Some words made their appearance. Printing themselves on the second page of the book.

Me along with the others glanced towards the discarded book only to read.

“No risk, no story.

Welcome to another realm.”
