How It Happened - 6

To say Ruby was taken aback and shocked by Lily Malum's response would have been an understatement. The way the woman replied to her, it was obvious that she wanted Ruby to lose her cool and she wanted to rub something on Ruby's face.

In the split second that Ruby wondered what the woman was talking about, her brows creased. 

"And what is it that you want that you have gotten, Lily Malum?"

'Oh,' Lily Malum thought. She had thought that Ruby would be an easy pick but that wasn't the case -- now she was coming to see.

"It is only a matter of time, dear princess," Lily replied with a smirk on her face.  But the anger evident there also could not be mistaken. One of Lily's brows went up and a corner of her eye twitched. Oh, she was pissed.
