Finding solace

Finding solace

Author: Pinkwillow
On a massive king-size bed with black covers, Lara stretched herself awake. She drowsily observed her new environment trying to comprehend where she was at the moment.
She caressed the covers which were extremely soft to feel. Loving the texture she decided to feel the whole of it. But once her head touched the black soft wool, a sweet cologne of masculinity hit her nose making her eyes widen in realization. Flashes of last night began to cross through her mind causing a slight pang of pain in her head.
She got drunk and was carried away by a stranger. She looked at what she was putting on and got terrified. Something must have transpired between her and the stranger.
She was currently clothed in black lacy nightwear. And the thought of something happening between them caused a big pain in her chest. She had lost everything.
She sat up adjusting her legs to make her chin come in contact with her knees. How could she be so careless, she wondered blaming it on her zero tolerance for alcohol.
A quick knock came on the door and before Lara could react a slender young woman not less than thirty walked in. She had long black hair and grey eyes. She had the tall stature of a model curved in the right places but not too skinny as models tended to be.
"Ah, you are awake?". She said. Even her voice sounded melodious Lara thought.
"Hoped you were still asleep don't be startled. I was the one who changed you last night." She said walking into a room Lara supposed was a closet. Her revelation brought a sudden relief that Lara knew she was seeking.
"I'm Lucinda". She said once she was out of the closet." I will help you get prepared for breakfast and...".
"He will be there?" Lara finally said and Lucinda nodded.
"How good do I have to look?". Lara asked knowing that the stranger must be an extremely wealthy person. She needed to set her ground because rich people tend to be domineering once they helped someone of a lower caliber.
"Well, he doesn't need you to look extremely nice. He never liked anything nice." Lucinda said with a slight smile.
"He must be mean". Lara said and Lucinda just smiled.
After five minutes Lara was transformed into an elegant rich heiress. The short red dress she was wearing outlined her figure perfectly exposing her beautiful long legs. Lucinda helped her put her brown hair into a loose bun enhancing her beautiful glassy brown eyes. She had a light makeup on and Lucinda couldn't help but praise her beauty. 
"Now, my master is not a gentle person he lacks patience and could harm anyone by a snap of his fingers. To avoid that scenario do as he says". Lucinda said as she led Lara down to the dining room. Lara nodded in affirmation before going back to her exploration. She had observed how humongous and expensive the manor looked. Rich people had a strong thing for large manors that were rarely full of people. She observed how the stairs glittered under the light of the chandelier which seemed to be made out of gold. Once they were at the bottom of the stairs, Lucinda turned to Lara and gave her a pitiful smile before walking to the large doors in front of her.
She knocked at the door and a man who looked around forty opened the door. He was dressed in a black shirt which was carefully tucked in. Lucinda nodded her greeting before walking past him. Lara didn't fail to notice how he observed her before he nodded. Gothic was the only thing Lara could think of as she carefully scanned the large dining room.
