Day one as a personal maid 1

Lana sat down in front of the mirror, it was the next day, her first day of being a palace personal maid, she didn't know what to think or how to feel, a month ago if someone had told her she'll become a maid

She would have given that person a piece of her mind but look at her now dressing up for her new job, atleast she got a job, if Anna was here she would have been rolling on the floor laughing

Thinking about it made her chuckle

Braiding her hair she rolled it to the top of her head and left some to fall at the side leaving her bangs, getting up she straightened the maid gown, it was a black dress that didn't reach her ankle with long sleeves that were just above her wrist

The gown was really comfy paired with the black boot they gave her

There was a knock on the door walking to the door she opened it, an old woman in her early fifties stood behind the door, with a frown on her face

"G...good morning" Lana greeted, she didn't know why the woman looked annoyed but she was sure it had nothing to do with her

"You are his Majesty's personal maid, you're supposed to be at his side every hour, minutes and second" the woman said

Was she also going to sleep at his side, Lana thought but she obviously wouldn't ask that

"If you're done preparing, follow me" the woman said walking away, Lana quickly left the room closing the door behind her, there were two guards stationed at her door

Lana glanced at them she wondered if they ever moved from there, shrugging she kept following the woman listening as she gave instructions on how to serve the dark Lord

She wondered if she'll get paid for all the work, recalling they didn't talk about it, she was going to have to discuss it with him later

"Are you listening to me" the woman said, bringing back to the present

"Ye...yes ma'am" she replied

"I am the head maid of the palace, the butler will give you further instructions" saying that she walked away leaving her in front of a huge door, watching the old woman's retreating figure she was confused, what was she supposed to do in front of this door

"You must be his majesty personal maid"

Lana turned to see a tall elderly man around the same age as the head maid, he had a small smile on his face, she was relieved to see at least one person smiling face

"Yes sir, I"

"Call me Frederick or Fred, I'm the king's butler" he said his smile widening

Returning the smile she nodded

"Your standing in front of his Majesty's chamber, I'm sure the head maid has told you most of the things you need to know, just knock and wait for him to answer" saying that he walked past her with the same smile on his face "good luck"

Lana shivered turning to his retreating figure was it her imagination or did he just whisper good luck to her

The door suddenly opened revealing Kairos "are you going to keep standing there, your job is by my side not in front of the door"

Lana glanced at him about to say something but she was cut off by his bare upper body exposed for her to see, his chiseled skin that looked like the God who formed him was a perfectionist, she didn't know when she was lost looking at his abs

"If you keep standing there and staring at me, you might as well get arrested for treason" Kairos said teasing her

Lana glared at him "May I come in your majesty" she bowed trying to be polite

Kairos made way for Lana as she walked into the room, her mouth dropped seeing the magnificence of the room, everything was decorated with gold and red, the bed was huge, there was a separate dressing room connected to the main room

This man is truly a king Lana thought admiring the room

"Here take this" Kairos said handing her the necklace she found

Surprised Lana asked "why are you giving this to me, isn't it your mother's necklace?"

"Yeah but it's of no use now, the magic in it isn't there anymore" he replied

Lana glanced at the necklace, it did feel off and empty, and it had a blue pendant when she picked it now it's grey

Lana still wasn't sure she could take it as her own, but she was going to keep it for now, placing it inside her pocket

"Come let's go have breakfast" Kairos said walking out of the room, Lana followed behind

They walked past some maids doing chores, Lana could feel their eyes following her, it made her uncomfortable, they gazes weren't kind. Guess she won't have a good relationship with her colleagues

going down a flight of stairs they finally reached the dinning

Settling down on his seat "Lana take a sit, I'm sure you've not had breakfast"

"I don't think it's okay to sit with you at your table your majesty" Lana said reluctant to move from where she stood

"It's an order" Kairos said frowning at her rejection

Sighing in defeat Lana took a sit at his right side, she wasn't hungry, she might as well just watch him eat instead, the kitchen maids trooped in bringing in different plates of food

Watching the food being placed, Lana's mouth watered just in cue her tummy growled, holding her stomach she looked away pretending nothing happened

A small smile formed on Kairos lips, he pretended he didn't hear a thing

As soon as the maids were done, they left

the butler walked in bowing at Kairos

"Your majesty, lady Margaret is here to see you" he said

The smile on Kairos face vanished.
