Back at the servant quarters, Hazel took her bath and had breakfast,it wasn't the food she served Xavier, it was an almost dry bread with soup. Seriously is this what servants eat here, is the Lord this heartless.
She now regretted why she hadn't accepted the Lord's offer, her thought were now on what happened at the room,they were too close to each other at that time,she remembered the tingling feeling he caused as his breath fanned her earlobes and the way he whispered in her ears were mesmerizing, how could a man have this effect on someone cause no man in Bougreve, including Helios who had girls around him made her feel that way,the closeness and feelings were sure new to her.
She knew that he had bedded so many women and if be thought that he can easily get her to give him her modesty, he was wrong.
She just stayed on her bed, she was Xavier's personal maid and only does what Xavier asked. Collins didn't bother calling her and she guessed Xavier made it clear to him. Staying in the room was boring so she decided to take a walk around the mansion at least to get familiar with it, she walked passed the maids and they all gave her a mean stare as they gossipped
"She isn't working as we do, who does she think she is" one said in a whisper but Hazel heard
"I guess the Lord said she was his personal maid"another replied
"More like personal sex toy"
"I can't wait to hear her dead cause he would suck her dry"
Hazel was shocked as she heard that but she kept walking. She walked to the next corridor and noticed some frames hanging on the wall. On the first one,there was a mab and a woman who she didn't recognize but as she looked down she saw a little boy and he had the same feature as the Lord so she guessed it was him and the person's she didn't recognize were his parents, but the woman didn't look like Mrs Decron.
As she moved further,she saw another frame, it was the same man, but this time with Mrs Decron and Xavier wasn't in the picture, she then guessed that she's his step mom. He didn't have siblings, maybe that was why he was cold. On the first frame it was written '1726' and on the second'1728' so his mom died when he about eleven or twelve years and maybe his step mom didn't show him love,so he practically do not know how to show love to someone. She continued walking, she went to the fining room, the drawing room, the mansion undoubtedly had much room in it. She then came across a lady coming from the opposite direction,she was about walking past her when she was stopped
"Don't you bow when you see a high personality"
"I'm sorry milady I didn't know"
"You don't know me"
"No"
The woman was Lady Dorin (guessed right)
"And who are you, I haven't seen you around"
"I'm new here,I'm Lord Xavier's personal maid"
"Personal maid?" Dorin scoffed " you mean sex toy"
'What's with everyone and sex toy' she thought
"No milady, I'm just a maid"
"I hope so....I'm Lady Dorin and the next queen(I don't know if I'm meant to use queen in this context but anyways) of Borreve"
Next queen, wow, so the Lord wasn't all that cold he actually has a loving side since he loved this lady
"I give my respects to you Lady Dorin"
"And where is the Lord"
"I don't know"
"You call yourself his maid and you don't know"
"I last saw him during breakfast"
"Breakfast?, its almost evening and your talking about since morning"
"I haven't seen him since then"
Dorin walked passed her slightly brushing past her shoulder. Hazel quickly rushed back to the servants quarters since it was already evening anticipating her punishment
In the drawing room,Xavier and the witches were talking
"We have decided to shift the date of the sacrifice" Pelles said
"Why" Xavier asked
"The vampires are tracking us and the rumors about us being here is spreading which is all your fault"
"And how is it"
"You are the Lord, you could close down the search for us but you aren't" Edith said
"If I do, it would only increase the rumors and then suspicions on me"
"Trying to save your ass"
"What else can I do.....so when are you planning on performing the massacre"
"After we've been assured that the tension has calmed down"
"Very well then, safe hiding.....I really pity your kind"
"What's that supposed to mean" silles said
"I can't imagine myself being hated by everyone"
"Are you mocking us"
"I'm not sure" he let out a low chuckle "till we meet again". He stood and left their presence. He was heading to his room when he met Dorin
" Lady Dorin what brings you here, I thought you had left "
"I wanted to apologize"
"For?"
"For the way I acted, I was forceful, I actually thought you liked me"
"Its nothing, that's how desperate women eyeing the seat next to mine behave"
He was mocking her
"I apologize for all that" she then stretched her hand to take hold of his and kissed the back of his palm to show how sorry she was. He just withdrew his hand and walks passed her to his room
"I must get that seat by all means Xavier, I will be your queen" she said to herself
