Chapter 9 - 'Thou shalt not covet thy master's things'

In my past life, these beings walked among humans protecting us from harm, but after that queen had appeared. The battle between the gods and the previous Alpha who had then been Imprisoned. The devourer who had been captured and brought away...those things were only known by a few though, the only reason I had become aware of this is because my husband and children had assisted in the designs and we had also helped with locating the devourer who had been taken away.

It is just that back then things were not as strange as now.

The society back then had lost many races of people, of course with the help of the eastern continent some were saved but the mutation of genes had caused some of the pure lines to become rampant killing off many races of people in succession. The sad thing about all of this is that the queen had her anchor mates target the race that they deemed strong enough to bounce back first.

Looking at murals I suddenly felt depressed.

The eastern continent had suffered the most but they had also been the ones who ruled in the end.

If they had not demanded that my kind back then be treated with respect we would have been killed off or simply used as breeders.

What was also good is that I at least was surrounded by my husband and best friends. We had built our empire dominating the world with ease for any time before we had grown too old to care and focused only on living peacefully with each other.

Pampered even when I became old and wrinkly, loved unconditionally by a husband and males who had given me whatever I wanted.

Blinking away tears I struggled to keep my emotions stable, I am a Jah now, that was a life I can not forget, but I have to make new memories.

That's right, I have brothers and a sister, in this life, I am blessed with parents and blood siblings.

In this life, I will never suffer any grievances.

In this life, I can have what I had forced myself not to have, because I am a Jah.

Those who are at present above me, I will either stand on their level or I will stand tall above them, either way, I will never settle for a life where I can be looked down on, but first.

A smile tugged at my lips but faded when I felt a burning gaze on my form, almost searing me to death.

'Littlest, your emotions are turbulent,'

'En, sister, my servant pet I useless.'

'Little, tell your elder brother what that servant has done,'

'Brother Di'ri where did you purchase this pet? I want my male returned, females...they are too fearsome!'

'Littlest tell eldest sister and she will give you justice, in fact, I am in the room, where are you--en I see you littlest, eldest sister is here'

'Littlest we are on our way,'

I said nothing but tried my best to stay calm, it was not until a man dressed in a pale blue suit appeared.

"Young miss, I have been informed that you are a servant who has entered a private event reserved for masters and mistresses. Please follow me,"

This...I tilted my head up and stared at the servant in front of me, his face was filled with displeasure, not too far from where he stood was my servant pet who was presently surrounded by girls fawningly.

Suddenly I felt my emotions fade, my already blank face became cold, still, I stared, while I did I replayed everything from the time this servant pet has arrived.

She had a statue of a middle-class child, it seems she had been raised well, each word spoken was of eloquence.

In school she also scored well, above my average, she had many talents, I simply did nothing and if I did, it would be in the room reserved for the Jah siblings where I would practise my martial arts to keep fit or even sing and dance.

Playing an instrument?

To entertain whom?

Why should I entertain another when I have so many servants to do those tasks?

Piano? In my last life, I had learned for my husband, in this life what was the use? I wanted only to play for him...for them.

They no longer are here so why should I?

The harp I plucked the strings, shedding tears for my husband, those males, my children...I wept cutting off my emotions from the sibling and parental bond so as to not affect them, releasing a wail.

Math, English, Chinese, Russian, French, Portuguese, science, arts, finance, and etiquette?

I had lived for more than a century in my last life of course I had studied and applied those things in practice. Why would I put in as much effort as a child? A pampered child?

Foolish!

For whom?

"Servant pet, come, who is the master and who is the servant?"

I said in a voice not too loud and not too soft.

While I did, I saw her entire body tense, her head slowly turning to look at me. Her gaze was filled with hate.

I wished to laugh but I could not, still, I smirked.

Did she not know of the rule?

'Thou shalt not covet thy master's things,'
