Chapter 17 - Chapter seventeen: the festival 3

Heaven Alizah Dianne's pov:

The maid's uniform for the festival are special today. Well, it is the festival after all. "Heaven" l heard some one called. I turned and saw Xavier and his mate approaching me. "Good day your highnesses" l greeted, "good day to you too" they said smilingly. "Wow, Heaven you look stunning in that dress" said Stephenie. "Well, thank you. You look drop dead gorgeous as well your highness" l said politely. "Oh stop, just call me Stephenie" she said smilingly. "Xavier" Lucas approached us. "How are you Lucas, ready to face the crowd" Xavier said. "As if you won't be facing the crowd too" Lucas scoffed. Xavier chuckled. "How you coping ,Heaven?" He said. "I'm coping well, thank you for asking my Lord" l said. All of us then made our way to the king's room, and then the bitch, Samantha happened to be going there too, and met us on the way. "Hey Xavier, how are you?" She said as she approached. Stephenie scoffed and gave her a 'don't you dare come closer look', but Samantha never take warnings, let alone signs. She came closer, and as expected, she frowned when she saw my dress. "How dare you?, You think that just because you are the king's handmaid you can dress how ever you want, you are just a maid here. A worthless maid" she growled. "And how is that your business, Samantha?" Stephenie growled back. I held her hand, and gave her a negative sign, telling her to stop. Samantha chuckled darkly at this. "Actually miss, your baby gave this dress to me. And ordered me to wear it today" l said with a hint of mockery. "You hear that?, now stop being a nuisance. And get out of my sight" Lucas said in a calm yet dangerous tone. "Just you wait, when l become the queen, you will all pay for this. And you" she said as she point at me. "You better mind yourself here, if you think that disgusting look is going to help you to seduce the king, then you are wrong. The king is mine, a wretched slut like you doesn't deserve to be his maid, you don't deserve to be near him" she ranted. Lucas looked like he could smack her right now. I looked at him and smiled, he was a bit surprised. "Are you done?" I asked Samantha. And her jaws dropped. I looked at Lucas again, "can l have the permission to be frank, please?" I asked him and he nodded his head. I took two steps closer to her.

"Listen miss, l don't care you the duck you are, but never in your life should you talk to me like that. And also, I am not a slut, you are. I am nothing like you. You are delusional, you keep calling yourself the king's mate but deep down you know that you are not his mate. The king has been looking for his mate for more than two hundred years. If you were the king's mate, you would have been the queen a long time ago, is it that you are too blind to see it or you are too stupid to realize it?. Stop being delusional, stop ruining your life. The king will only see you as his fuck mate and nothing more. You get it you are always going to land in his bed and not his heart. I know that, you have found your mate along time ago. But rejected him because your obsessions, didn't you?" I lashed out , she was shocked at that. "What!!, You have already found your mate." Xavier said as he couldn't believe his ears. Everyone looked at her and shook their heads, "unbelievable" said Stephenie. "I don't even know whether to call you stupid or insane" l continued " you oukf rather be with a man who is just having sex with you just for the fun of it for more than two hundred years , than to be with a man that will love yoy whole heartedly, and will belong to you and you only. I really pity the poor guy that happens to be your mate, he will suffer." I said, by now she was already sheathing in anger, and sweating profusely. Then, wack , l felt a slap across my face. That bitch dared to slap me. "Don't you ever talk to me like that. You are just a useless maid. How dare you talk to me like that?" She growled. "Heaven, you have permission to fight back" said Lucas. And she look at him deathly. Before l knew it, Adira took full control of me and slapped her hard too.
