It's been three days since Lynn and Lumi killed the shape-shifter. I'm so proud of them, even though we signed a contract in a frenzy. Who knew these two little balls of sunshine would become my little demons? But they're so cute, with their blue and white short hair and their blue eyes resembling the sky and the ocean, and their tiny little sparkling silver wings that shine like jewels in the sunlight. They are so adorable.
"Master, it's time for your training. You need to learn more about spirit summoning and monster taming," they requested. These two little demons will be the death of me someday. They don't get tired at all. I've been working all day cleaning the hallways and stairs since the crown prince is coming tomorrow. The Marquis ordered us to clean the mansion until there's no speck of dust left. It's been a busy day for the employees.
"Master, are you listening to us? You need to practice more to raise your level. If you don't, you won't be able to use advanced class magic," they kept on insisting.
"I heard you just fine the first time. Let me rest for a while. I've been working all day long," I said.
"Master," they exclaimed. "Why don't you two go and see what the Marquis is doing and report it to me? Read the report or anything you think is important, including who the Marquis frequently talks with and what he's scheming. Can you two do that?" I added.
"Yes, Master, we can do that for you. We are your servants; you can ask us to do anything for you. Even if you want us to kill someone for you, we'll gladly fulfill your command," they exclaimed with joy.
"Listen to me carefully. You two are not my servants but my very first friends I made in this world. And you two don't need to kill anyone for me. I'll be the one to kill these people who put me through this hell. Now off you go." It's a good thing I have Lynn and Lumi by my side. They're good at gathering information. After they killed the shape-shifter, whose name I still don't know, maybe that thing didn't have a name. Poor thing, how could he have a name? The Marquis wasn't the type to give names to others; from what I've heard, the Marquis didn't even name his own children.
"You slave, Lady Celina is calling you. Fix your appearance and go to her chamber," she shouted. Inola. She thinks she can do anything just because she's Celina's nanny. Just you wait, you damn fox; one day I will kill you personally in a slow and agonizing way that you'll beg for my mercy and ask me to kill you . "Thank you for telling, Inola," I responded.
"That bitch is horny all the time; can't she find somebody else to satisfy her needs? The whole family is like they are dog in heat. Can't they find someone to tame their pheromones. In my opinion there's no one who would want to have sex with someone like them? There are certain etiquettes when it comes to making love. It seems like they never cared to study those etiquettes and decided they would fuck like animals."
"My Lady, you called for me," I said.
"Come in and lock the door. Tonight I won't let you off easily," she commanded.
Her room is the total opposite of her. I still don't understand how her room is all pink in contrast to her devilish personality, who deep down prefers girly girl pink.
"Kneel," she commanded. Just like that, I fell to my knees. "Strip your clothes and crawl to me like an animal ." Her eyes were filled with lust, and it didn't seem like she would stop anytime soon. I gritted my teeth and closed my eyes while she took me apart like an animal.
I woke up with sun rays peeking through the curtains and Lynn and Lumi looking worriedly at me. They looked like they would cry any minute if I didn't tell them I'm fine. "Master, you're awake," they beamed with joy after seeing me. I wonder if I had met them earlier; maybe I wouldn't have so much hate in my heart.
"Get up, you slave. Just because Lady Celina let you sleep in her bed doesn't mean it's yours. Get up before I drag you out by your hair to the Lord."
"Good morning to you too, Inola. Why would the Lord want to deal with this issue on the day when the crown prince is visiting?" I shared.
"Don't you know the Lord is the one who asked me to fetch you and wake you from your sweet slumber? It would be in your interest to get up and follow quietly," she countered.
"My Lord, I brought the slave," she stated. "Good, send her in," my Lord replied.
"My Lord, what a pleasure it is to see you on this lovely day," I expressed. I hate myself when I have to talk to him like that.
"My little beautiful doll, today I have a surprise for you. You know how that cursed crown prince is coming to our estate today?" he said. "From this day, I'll dress you in the most beautiful dresses you have ever seen, but first, let me get my fill of you. I haven't seen you for three days." He added, "After today, I will send you to that cursed prince's chamber and it will be your job to please him until he leaves just like you pleased our other guest." In that moment, I never felt this much disgust for myself. But the words that escaped from my mouth were, "Yes, Master." Just like that, he threw me on the ground and had his way with me until there was an hour left before our guest arrived.
"Inola, take her and make her look presentable for the prince," he ordered, and they dragged me out like an animal. I know I'm a slave and don't have any rights in this world, but can't they treat someone with a little humanity? They dressed me up in a short black dress with white lace and tied my hair up in a bun decorated with a ruby. That ruby hairpiece somehow complemented my platinum hair.
"Master, you look so beautiful. We never saw you this pretty," they expressed.
"You slave, get up and walk. His Highness's carriage has arrived; remember, don't let him find out you're a slave of lowly origin."
"Inola, you worry too much. Unlike you, I know what our guests want," I mocked her, and the look on her face was so good that if I had a camera, I would have totally taken a picture.
"Welcome to our humble estate, Your Highness. I hope you don't find anything lacking in our hospitality," the Marquis exclaimed.
"You may all raise your heads," the prince spoke with a cold voice. His voice felt devoid of emotions, yet when our eyes met, I felt I was finally home and at peace.
To be continued.
