It has been three days since she has lived in the mansion, and twice she has given random excuses just to avoid spending the night with Lorenzo.
Currently, it is the fourth day and yes, she is planning yet another excuse which she will use to skip.
Honestly, she knows that she won't be able to escape this forever, but doing this will at least give her time to think of what to do.
She had thought that she would be neglected by Lorezo due to her actions days ago, but who knew that that was not going to be the case?
He was requesting her daily, which has caused her to keep making up random excuses.
A deep sigh left her nose and she glanced at the alarm clock.
"7 PM." This was the time where he chooses who he wants for the night, and with no doubt, she believes it will be her again tonight.
"Well... There is only one thing that will work for me tonight, and it is the ultimate thing that disgusts men." A smile ensued on her face, and she slowly shook her head. "Period..."
Her smile widened and, instantly hearing the approaching footsteps of someone due to her keen hearing, she hurriedly slipped under the heavy blanket, turned on her side and shut her eyes.
A slow knock came at the door, and although she heard it, she did not answer it and pretended to be asleep.
"Miss Diana." Lily's voice resounded, and Diana tightly shut her eyes, unwilling to answer.
A low sigh left Lily's nose, and she gently pushed the door open.
She walked in and glanced at the bed where Diana was lying under the blanket.
"Miss Diana, Master requests your presence in his master bedroom." She reported, but Diana, however, still did not respond.
"Miss. Diana..." Lily, who didn't get a response from her, called yet again in a concerned tone.
Her brows furrowed in a bit of apprehension, and slowly, she walked towards the bed.
She moved to the other side and leaned down.
She removed the blanket that was covering Diana's body, and the instant her eyes fell on Diana's face, a quick gasp escaped her mouth.
"Miss Diana, are you okay?" She inquired in deep worry, and Diana slowly opened her eyes.
"Lily..." She whispered in a sick voice, and Lily stared at her, unsure of what was going on.
"Miss Diana, is everything okay? You look so pale." She asked, and a pessimistic sigh fled Diana's nose.
"I am not fine, Lily. My-my period just came and it's killing me. I am really sad because I have not gotten the chance to be with Mr. Lorenzo and now I-"
Fake tears welled up in her eyes and Lily, who felt sincerely sorry, leaned even closer and gently patted her on the back.
"Miss Diana, it's okay. You need not worry, because I'm going to go right now and explain to him, so that once your period is over, he will call for you and give you the time you deserve, alright."
She assured Diana and Diana slightly nodded her head.
"Thank you so much, Lily. This means a lot to me." She appreciated it, and Lily nodded before standing up and hurriedly leaving the room.
She shut the door behind her, and a deep breath of relief exited Diana's nose.
"I just gained myself three days. How come I never thought about this?" She scoffed and laid back on the bed.
Her lips curled up into a half smile, and she shut her eyes, ready to sleep.
...
Lily arrived at the door of Lorenzo's master bedroom and gave a light knock.
She pushed the door open once Lorenzo gave his permission and stepped in.
"Your majesty." She bowed in deep respect, and Lorenzo raised his head to look at her.
Once out of the sight of humans, they weren't allowed to address him in any other way than "Your Majesty" After all, he's the ruler of hell.
"Where is she?" He asked with his legs crossed and a glass of wine in between his two fingers, and Lily bit her lower lip.
"She... she's sick." She replied, and Lorenzo's eyes narrowed instantly.
"What do you mean, she's sick?" He asked, having started to get the feeling that all Diana's words and sickness were nothing but a lie and an excuse.
"Your Majesty, she's experiencing...period and she's currently si-"
"Pe-what?" He coughed, almost spurting out his wine.
"Period, your majesty." Lily repeated, and Lorenzo's long lashes fluttered vigorously.
"Why didn't you say so?"
"Huh, i-"
"Get out! Go and take care of her." He cut her off before she could say another word and, quite surprised, Lily looked at him for three seconds more before nodding and exiting the room.
She shut the door behind her and hurried back to Diana's bedroom.
She stepped inside and shut the door, then took her seat on the couch.
"Miss Diana, if you need anything, please just let me know." She said to her, but Diana, who was already sound asleep, responded not.

(9:56 am)
Diana finally awoke from her lazy sleep and the first person she saw was Lily, who was busy picking out clothing for her from the closet.
"Lily..."
"Good morning, Miss Diana." Lily turned to look at her with a face full of smiles and greeted her.
"What's going on? Why are you smiling so cheerfully?" She asked in curiosity, and Lily giggled.
"Miss Diana, I am happy because today is your lucky day." She replied, and quite confused, Diana arched her brow.
"My lucky day?"
"Yes, your lucky day. You see, every once in a month, his maje-i mean master, takes all his partners out for a royal feast. This royal feast is simply taking you guys out, where you can order and eat as much as you want. Any dish, of course."
She explained, and Diana's eyes instantly widened in awe.
Food means everything to her. Well, in this life it does, so this news is like music to her ears.
Her face lit up in excitement and she quickly hurried off the bed. "What time?" She inquired.
"This morning, Everyone is almost ready, except you." Lily replied, and her eyes broadened in disbelief.
"What!! Why didn't you wake me up?" She questioned, and before Lily could reply, she rushed off into the bathroom and slammed the door shut.
