Chapter 57
“Yeah, V, come on, hit me!” I said with a smile on my face, and I was enjoying every bit of it as I messed with them. “I warned you all the last time we met. Have you all forgotten that already?” I said in a cocky tone of voice as I felt confident.
Mabelle then started to come forward with that smug look on her face. “So maid, you think that you’re better than us? Why are you suddenly acting all tough? You do know that you are lower than us, way lower than us. I’m sure you already know that by now because I know that you’ve been serving ever since you were born. Am I right? Or are you going to prove me wrong?”
I don’t know where she got that information, but I don’t think I’ve been serving the Alpha family ever since I was born. From what I remember, I had a childhood, a good one too. She’s making up stories now at this point, just for her to have something to say. What a pitiful tactic. “And where did you find that out, huh?”
“Where I heard it from doesn’t matter, it’s true, isn’t it?” She was confident that she was right. Mabelle was full of herself as she just said anything that came on to her mind. She was just trying to prove to her so-called friends that she was better than anyone else. She wanted to prove it so badly that she would even be a lowly maid like me.
“I don’t know, is it? I don’t know the answer to that either, but since you already know the answer, can you just tell me?” I wanted to toy with her, but I was just hoping that she would bite the trap.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
“It’s true! Do you want to know why? Because that’s what you were meant to be ever since you were born, you were meant to serve others like us, who are more powerful and higher ranking. Like us that can contribute to the world, and not just feed off of other people’s success.” She said in a serious tone of voice.
She looked like she was going to give a whole speech about world peace or something. She really knows how to exaggerate something, and I’ll give her that. But I think that she is only acting high and mighty because her friends are watching. Besides that, I don’t think that she has any other reason to continue fighting, that she is right and I am wrong.
“And how do you know that? Was it fate as well? Did you see it in a prophecy somewhere? I’d like to see it as well if you have, you know, I’m really intrigued about my destiny, whether I’m going to be a maid, or maybe become higher and more powerful than any of you could ever imagine, but we don’t exactly know what could happen in the future, so maybe the latter?” I said in a sarcastic tone of voice.
The look on their faces was priceless as they all looked confused. Most of them might not even comprehend what I just said. Poor things,
“Ugh! Stop talking! You and your antics, just stop talking! What you are saying is nonsense. You will never be more powerful than us, nor will you be higher than us because you are just a maid that doesn’t know her place yet in life.”
Mabelle really never knows where to stop. If she’s doing all of this for a show, then she must really be desperate for friends. “Look, Mabelle, I didn’t come here to start a fight. I just went outside to get some fresh air and take a breather, and I wasn’t even expecting any of you here. So just please, just this once, leave me alone.” I told them in my sincere voice, but I don’t think any of them bought it.
“Just you wait till you get to the Annual Pack Gathering, that’s where you’ll really know your place, out here, you might seem like you blend in, but in there? That’s our territory, and you won’t survive while you’re in it.” She said in a serious tone of voice as she started to step back.
It was a good thing that I wasn’t going, or else what she was saying might be true. I don’t have a dress to wear anyways, so that’s all fine.
“Sorry Mabelle, but you won’t be seeing me in the Annual pack gathering at all, so maybe next time,” I said in an enthusiastic tone of voice. I then turned around and was about to head back inside when they all started to laugh at me.
3rd Person POV
Krisna just ignored what Mabelle might think about her, instead, she turned her back at them and waved her goodbye. She thought she didn’t have enough time to argue or even face them at the moment. She still had so much to do and she couldn’t afford to waste energy for the likes of them.
By the time she started to walk away, Mabelle was still talking but she only continued to walk without minding Mabelle. She didn’t care at all, whatever they would like to do, it had nothing to do with her just don’t get her involved again since she was starting to get sick of it. Even so, the day she would run away from the pack was not that long anymore, every hour at this point counts and she couldn’t wait for the designated time to finally come.
It took her a few minutes to walk from where she and Mabelle were back to Asthrid’s room. She opened the door to the room and Asthrid was facing the other way and Krisna could only see her back, but she could see that Asthrid was holding and checking up on a dress. It was the type of dress that was not up to her likings.
“Oh-uh,” Krisna told herself in a low tone of voice which also made Asthrid turn her attention to her who just got back. She was smiling… not her usual smile, it was an evil smile. At that moment, Krisna suddenly felt anxious and fretful at the same time. She knew this scene, she had already seen this in her dreams and now it became a nightmare! She got a hunch that something was up once again between her and Asthrid.
Asthrid turned back and looked at Krisna while she was still smiling from ear to ear. “Oh, hi there, maid. So, you’ve come back, I didn’t sense you back there.” She greeted Krisna with a really sweet and nice tone of voice. Because of what she did, Krisna unconsciously gulped and stared at Asthrid while her heart started to beat so fast.
