the red string of fate (Ongoing)

his fianceé

3rd persons POV
"fianceé hah" Adeline muttered to herself and she walked around the empty hallways and blood was splattered all around

she looked around and saw jack and atlas walking in her direction she stopped walking and looked in their direction. they both were injured they looked at Adeline as they stood a few steps away

"I guess they are all dead or ran away" Adeline said as she looked around the hallways

"yes it looks like that" atlas said as his gaze wandered around the empty hallways

"you should get some rest and clean your wounds" jack said his gaze was fixed at Adeline she was injured blood flowing out from her wounds

"I'm fine, I just want to take a long bath and eat something good" Adeline said as she looked at her wounds a few scratches on her face and blood coming out from her leg,arms and few other places

"alright let's take some rest" jack agreed as they walked through the empty hallways they finally found the guest rooms

ADELINE'S POV:

I walked into the guest room and it was almost the same to the guest rooms in our castle

I looked around and found the wardrobe there were a few clothes I picked out the one that looked the most comfortable it was a plane long white shirt and a trouser

I took a cold bath dressed my wounds wire the clothes and finally let myself rest I sat on the bed and looked around the room there was nothing special until a painting caught my attention it looked simple it was nothing that I could explain just random colors splattered here and there on the canvas I tried to think deeply and there were seven different colors on the painting red,black,white,blue,purple,Grey and brown

there was mostly red splattered around and the least was white

I tried to think but it just didn't make any sense just colors splattered around

I walked back to the bed and soon felt enough comfortable to take a little nap it was for about two hours

JACK'S POV:

I was right now sitting in one if the room in Atlas's castle I have dressed my wounds and right now I'm just sitting and thinking about I don't know.... I had a lot of thoughts in my mind and right now I just wanted to take some rest and sleep maybe I laid in a comfortable position and tried to fall asleep but I couldn't I stood up and walked out of the room the hallways were still very much covered in blood I walked around I looked for the soldiers and greeted each of them in the guest room and made sure that they have everything they need some were injured lightly and others were injured greatly

the thing that matter is that they were helping each other in time like this and I feel proud of them I hope that under any circumstances they'll stick together abd help each other

I looked here and there finally I found the place I was looking for the kitchen I walked towards the kitchen it was large but there was no one inside I walked around soon I felt a presence behind me

"hey" I turned around to look at atlas he was looking his wounds were now dressed and he looked fresh
"hey" I said as I faced him he looked around and walked toward the hearth he looked into the cabinets and looked at me
"even though you made me work my ass off but still I'll make you a meal" he said as he grabbed the ingredients I looked at him and it was quite new to me a man cooking? I don't care I'm starving anything he made

"you know how to cook?" I asked as I looked at him curiously he turned around and smirk

"sit over there" he said as he pointed towards the dining table present in the kitchen

I sat as I looked at him moving his hands skillfully. he looked more expert in cooking as compared to fighting

"what are you making" I questioned as I looked at him he didn't turned around and kept moving his hands (I know what you're thinking🔪🌚)

"you'll see" he said as he continued soon the smell filled the whole area it smelled tasty?
I waited patiently even though I was loosing all my patience finally he walked towards me but turned his direction and grabbed a few oranges and other fruits he once again walked away he stood their and after sometime he finally came back while grabbing two plates he placed it on the table....

my mouth flung the taste of roasted beef reached my nostrils and I finally looked up he was smiling at me devilishly he walked away and came back with two glasses filled with juice but before I could start eating a thought came in my mind the soldiers.... they all are probably hungry as well

"the soldiers..." I said as I looked at him he slightly smiled at me and I looked confused

"that girl... the one we met in the prison.... she said that she'll take care of everyone's food" atlas said and I remembered the girl who claimed to be Atlas's fiancé
"alright, let's eat"I said and I didn't wait for him to reply and started to eat I finished my food and drank my juice
"you're a good cook"
