I opened the door to the prince's room, entering the prince's room feeling a sense of familiarity wash over me. This was the very room I first arrived in, I slept on luxurious bed and even had refreshing showers but I just had to disobey his orders and get myself kicked out. Now, I slept on cold hard floors in the servant quarters where a decent night's sleep was hard to come by. With a slight shake of my head, I looked away from the bed which looked inviting and focused on the task at hand which was making sure the prince's room was tidy, not like it was dirty before.
As soon as I was done, I turned to look at the prince who stood still in a corner quietly staring at me, seriously what's with him and that look he gives me? I thought to myself before I bowed at him in respect.
"Have a good night, your highness!" I said politely, then turned to leave him alone.
I was heading to the door when I heard a rustle and a soft thud on the bed, "You should change into this.
Turning to look at the prince, I saw him turning to find him standing by the bed, where a piece of clothing was. I arched a brow up at him, but he just motioned to the clothing. "You want me to change my clothes?" I asked him still confused.
Corion only gave me a single nod in reply to my question. I stared at the clothes on the bed, still feeling uncertain. Why does he want me to change my clothes? I mean, I wasn't exactly comfortable with what I was wearing either.
It was a long white skirt with beads around the waste and the hips with a gold colored top that fell just above our stomach, leaving it exposed. Next, we had to keep our faces covered with a thin piece of cloth. The dressing was uncomfortable because I wasn't used to showing skin but according to Katrina, what we are wearing right now is only because it's winter. Once it's summer, we change into something lighter but what she wasn't telling me is that it's going to be more revealing.
Now the prince is giving me clothing to wear? I know my job was to attend to him but I didn't think they would mean it like this! Furious, I turned to look at the prince fully. "I really can't believe you right now." I say with a scoff, "Do you do this to all your maids?" I asked him.
"Do what?" He asked me with a nonchalant look on his face.
"Don't play dumb with me!" I hissed at him, "You give them clothing to wear then act out your fucked up fantasy that gets you off! Look, if that's what you are expecting from me then you've got another thing coming!" I tell him before I turned to leave
I already predicted what his next move was going to be so I was ready. As he grabbed my wrist, I grabbed his hand then grabbed him by the collar of his shirt but before I could flip him, he grabbed me and pushed me against the wall.
Fucking supernatural powers! I cursed my rotten luck as I struggled against the prince who was still holding me, a pissed off look on his face. He was angry, well so was I! I thought as I glared back at him, making sure he could see the anger in my gaze.
The prince raised a hand and for a moment, I thought he was going to hit me but what he did was just push against the wall. I heard a soft rumble, I turned only to see the stone wall swing open revealing a secret passageway hidden behind it. My eyes widened in this disbelief as is stared at the passageway with my mouth slightly open.
"Change into that and come downstairs!" The prince informed me.
"Great, now his bedroom isn't enough and it's just my luck he has a freaking sex dungeon!" I muttered under my breath. I've heard about how hormonal supernatural creatures always are, especially when it comes to sex and it's just my luck I run into one who has weird fetish and own a freaking sex dungeon!
"Trust me, sleeping with you is the last thing I'll ever do!" The prince words shattered my thoughts, "And I thought I told you, I don't see you as a woman!" He said assessing me with his gaze and I just stood there staring at him.
I wasn't sure whether to be glad he doesn't see me that way or to be offended! But I think it's safe to say, I'm mostly offended! I scoffed at him, "Well I don't think you have any right to say that to me considering you are the one with the ugly scar on his face!"
It was only until the words came out of my lips did I realize the gravity of what I just said!
Fuck Aneesa that was low, even for you! I thought to myself as I stared at the prince whose eyes seemed to glow in anger.
I decided to quickly apologize, "I'm sor…"
"Just change and get down and I'm not asking!" The prince snapped at me before he turned and disappeared through the passage way.
As soon as he was gone, I let out a breath. "What the fuck Neesa?" I chastised myself as I raked a hand through my hair. How could you have made fun of his disability? That's just low and really childish!
But he was asking for it! I tried to make myself feel better but I still felt guilty. It was very obvious that what I said clearly hurt him. I saw the pain in his eyes before it was replaced with anger. I hurt him and it wasn't my intention.
Still feeling guilty, I picked up the clothes only to see that it was just a shirt and trouser and I felt even more guilty, can't believe I picked a fight over this! It was clear I misunderstood him and I needed to find a way to apologize to him! With a sigh, I quickly changed into the clothes then entered the dark passage way, going after the prince with the intent to apologize to him.
