Chapter 70 Proper Justice!
“My lady, you should not mingle much with lord Damien!”
“I know that!” ‘in fact, i should not mingle with any of them much!’ they all were vampires that could kill her even for fun and she had seen the example today!
But what about it! Why was he warning her!
“But to think that you have the audacity to warn your mistress! You sure have guts!” she added in a cold voice as she stared at him and then added, “could it be that you are not sure who the master is since you have taken the initiative to walk in front of me and i am the one following you?”
After her performance on the first day, she was sure that she had scared the servants enough to keep their distance from her!
The servants were the main key of every betrayal as they could keep an eye on their master and inform their enemies about their weakness!
Either she had to make them loyal or wary of her that they did not dare to betray her!.
Making them loyal was not a choice since Rafael kept killing the maids around her so.. She was only left the second choice.
“Pardon!?” The man looked stunned looking at her cold and confident eyes. He was expecting her to flinch now that she was alone with a vampire in the passage after she was attacked today.
But as a frail human, she was doing a pretty job in standing confidently and even condemning him! A treacherous smile formed on his lips as he nodded his head.
“I forgot, my lady! You shall take the initiative as the mistress of the palace! I will follow you!” that is it!? She raised a brow as question marks started to appear on her face!
There was no way that a man who handled all the matters of the palace and had a higher place than the head butler in the house would be so easy to tame! Just what was this man thinking!
Though she was wary of the vampire, she did not let that show on her face, as she passed a cold glance to him and then took the initiative to walk in front of him.
After taking a couple of steps, she soon entered the room he had told her to.
“Are you not coming in?” She turned back to see the vampire who had already bowed his head and wished her goodbye when he shook his head.
“No! My lord has called you to meet in private!” he nodded and left when he saw her nod!
‘In private!’ she had thought that she was called in the presence of Scarlet to handle the matter of the noon! Or had she mistaken!
Though she had not complained and Rafael had irritated Scarlet! Would it be enough?
If she would let the matter go that easily, then others would only think that she was a barking dog only! And then she would lose the fear she was trying to instill in others.
No! I would not let that happen! Clenching her hands into a fist, her eyes turned fiery as she knocked the door with determination to get justice for her!
“Come in!”
When she entered, her eyes fell on the vampire whose face was glowing in the dark due to the sparks of the flame that were dancing over his face and eyes.
In the dark room, where the only source of light is the fireplace, he looked rather lonesome to sit on the armchair alone!
His whole body was covered with a thin layer of ice that worked as a wall to keep anyone away from him!
He was so close yet he looked so distant and lonesome that an indescribable feeling started to clench her heart!
When she did not speak for long, Rafael raised his head and passed her a bored glance!
“Have you lost your tongue after being attacked? Or are you waiting for Damien to come so that you can banter and enjoy your evening?” ‘This is noon! Not an evening to start with! And no! She was done with both of them!’
“No! I am waiting patiently to know the reason for being summoned, my lord! There is no way that you called me just to have an after tea with you. Is it?” first you should spill all the beans so that i could test the water and set my words to ask for justice!
Or who would know you would be another Scarlet and pounce on me! She added in her heart as she glared at him but his lips still had a sweet smile that looked so fake that even a blind could see the difference!
“Tsk! What an obedient moose! You were not like that when I was trying to have a friendly spar with my cousin!” a friendly spar he said! He was more likely to kill Damien and that excuse was used by Scarlet to attack her letter.
If looked closely he was the reason for her condition! She swallowed all the cussing words forming on her lips as she would get enough time for that later in her room!
“Then I must have been under the delusion that the matter was serious, my lord. As you know, I only try to keep myself alive in the palace.
Your actions have almost cost me my life! So, if you want to have another friendly spar with lord Damien. I request you to not include me in the matter.
As an empress, I would still want to keep my decency!” he asked again as she spoke so seriously with that annoyed look on his face like a kid was being lectured by his mother!
“Do not be that boring! Haven’t i punished her enough for you!”
“No! I want her to be punished as a criminal should be!”
