Derek Ghislaine’s suite occupies the entire west wing of the sprawling mansion. The bedroom, a breathtaking expanse of polished obsidian floors reflecting the moonlight filtering through sheer, silk curtains, is a fusion of modern elegance and fantastical elements. One wall is dominated by a massive, intricately carved jade screen depicting scenes from Chinese mythology, subtly illuminated from within by soft, amber LEDs. This contrasts sharply with the minimalist, chrome-and-glass furniture: a low, sleek platform bed with a plush, midnight-blue mattress, a floating nightstand housing a single, antique jade lamp, and a minimalist desk crafted from polished black granite. Books, both ancient tomes bound in leather and modern paperbacks, are scattered artfully across the desk, hinting at Derek’s eclectic reading habits. A large, abstract painting, seemingly composed of swirling nebulae and constellations, hangs above the desk, adding a touch of otherworldly mystery. Subtle, almost invisible, runes are etched into the obsidian floor around the bed, glowing faintly with a celestial light. A small, ornate music box, shaped like a phoenix, sits on the nightstand, its delicate melody occasionally filling the room.

The adjoining bathroom is equally striking. Walls of polished white marble are punctuated by shimmering mother-of-pearl inlays, forming intricate patterns inspired by traditional Chinese architecture. A large, free-standing soaking tub, crafted from a single piece of carved jade, sits beneath a rain shower head that mimics a waterfall. The vanity is a sleek, minimalist design, featuring a sink basin carved from a single piece of black onyx. A full-length mirror, framed in intricately carved silver, reflects the room’s opulence. A small, hidden compartment within the vanity reveals a collection of rare herbal remedies and pain relievers, a subtle nod to Derek’s frequent migraines. The overall effect is one of serene luxury, a space that reflects both Derek’s Chinese heritage and his French upbringing, blending the ancient and the modern, the mystical and the practical, all within the context of his demigod status. The subtle hints of his powers and his personal struggles are woven into the very fabric of the room, creating a space that is both beautiful and deeply personal. The air is subtly infused with the scent of sandalwood and jasmine, a calming aroma that hints at the peace Derek seeks amidst the chaos of his life.
