Chapter 5 Slave Teresa

  • || TERESA LAWRENCEVILLE's POV ||
  • " What are you doing here, Raphael?"
  • I could never mistake this face ever. Raphael worked under king Nicolas, loyal to him wholeheartedly. He had been his right handed person for years.
  • Raphael coldly retorted, eyeing me suspiciously,
  • " I am here to check on your works. Did you make them believe in you?"
  • I replied a bit nervously. We were standing in the backyard, isolated from the castle staff.
  • " Yes! I have already been promoted to be his sex slave. Is there anything else that I need to do?"
  • I didn't want to be mistrusted by king Nicolas. Although it was my own revenge that mattered to me, a part of me was loyal to King Nicolas. He was the one who treated me well in these past years.
  • Raphael shook his head, saying 'No' as he clarified further,
  • " We don't want to be too obvious now. Give yourself time and also, remember that King Nicolas is trusting you on this matter. Don't backstab us."
  • My heart shook in fear of his words. I had no intention to backstab but doing harm to others without any reason wasn't my cup of tea. I gave him a short bow, replied to pressing my lips together,
  • " I am forever loyal to king Nicolas."
  • Raphael nodded with satisfaction. In their eyes, I was a little omega with a little brain. Raphael was in disguise, dressed as a castle guard with a beard. Before taking his leave, he paused to say something,
  • " Next time, it won't be me but King Nicolas! He will come to visit you personally if I am not guessing it wrong."
  • I stared at him in shock. Mustering up the courage, I managed to ask weakly,
  • " Why? I mean... isn't it risky? He can always pass the news through you."
  • Raphael stared at my face for a while before blurting in a mysterious voice,
  • " Don't say that you didn't notice how the king treated you. He doesn't consider you as just his slave, Teresa! Ever since you left the castle, he didn't eat or sleep well. Now, think why will he do that for you!"
  • He left quickly, heading straight to the exit but I was left with complicated thoughts. I didn't want to think about anything else at this moment. The moment, Lycan King Vincenzo found out that I came here with a conspiracy, I would be hung to death instantly.
  • ________
  • " So, you are the new slave?"
  • An young woman, accompanied by a few maids asked me harshly, her judgemental eyes laid on my face. I was confused at the beginning but one of her maids said coldly,
  • " This is Mistress Lucia. Bow to her! She is the king's favourite."
  • So, this was the woman that everyone asked to be cautious of. I gave her a short bow out of respect even though my pride wolf was refusing to bow. She smirked at me coldly, snorting with bitterness,
  • " What is in her to like about? She isn't even beautiful like my maid. His Majesty's choice is getting worst."
  • I didn't any new drama. So, I stayed tongue-tied, accepting her insult. In King Nicolas's Kingdom, no one bullied me actually but things & competition were different here. Mistress Lucia took slow step towards me, her eyes burning with hatred & jealousy,
  • " Listen to me! If you want to continue serving King Vincenzo, you must serve me well first. Otherwise your happy days will be over soon."
  • Bitch!
  • I uttered the curse in my head. No wonder, no one liked her in the castle as she was the biggest bully. I replied with all the innocence that I had in my mind,
  • " Sure, My Lady! I will take permission from the king tonight."
  • Her jaw dropped in shock upon my response. Did she think that I would let go of her? Mistress Lucia didn't expect that I would bring this matter to King Vincenzo. Furthermore, I informed her indirectly that it was me who would be spending the night with the king today. It provoked her jealousy as expected. She left angrily after stomping on her feet hastily.
  • ___________
  • " Don't expect from the king that he would be calling you tonight. Today isn't your day!"
  • One of the maids said in a mocking voice, staring outside of the window up to the sky. Honestly, I was missing being with him. My feelings were really questionable. He didn't summon me for two days as he lived outside of the castle. My wolf was anxious for no damn reason and made me restless to fight against her urge.
  • I shot the maid a questioning glance. She replied happily, sneering at my poor fate,
  • " Today is full moon day. The king only summons his mistress today because they all believe that a pup born in full moon day is more powerful than average Lycans. Being his mistress has one simple term which is to carry his heir. So other slaves aren't called today."
  • I followed her eyes to stare at the sky outside. The moon was round and full today. Even though It didn't matter to me, my heart didn't feel good to hear that Mistress Lucia was going to sleep with King Vincenzo today. Since he didn't find his soulmate, most probably Mistress Lucia was going to be his son's mother.
  • Will he treat me well then? Fuck! Why do I care? It's not like I wanted to carry his heir.
  • Right at that moment, the head of the maids pushed open the door to enter in our shared room. Her high pitched tone echoed inside the whole room clearly,
  • " Slave Teresa!! The king is calling for you. Wear something nice and seductive before going to him."
  • Not only the other maid, my jaw dropped speechlessly as well. Why did King Vincenzo ask for me instead of Mistress Lucia? Did he guess something or what?
