The vampire kings slave

Chapter four

Chloe’s POV: 

As the says went by, I was given more chores to do around the castle. Spencer has made me his slave, and I had to do as I was told, in hopes for my survival. I had heard tales from other servants about how he ‘fired’ people, and I didn’t want to meet the same fate as them. With each day, a more challenging task was given to me, according to the head maid, Spencer has ordered them to be given to me specifically. I hardly saw him, but when I did, he would never look at me. It was like I didn’t exist to him. Maybe he regretted our first encounter. How he had touched me...

I snapped out of it and focused on my current task. I was to feed the prisoners their measly meals then go sort out the horses in the stables. I carried the small tray I was given down into the dungeons. As I made my way towards the cells, I noticed a room that seemed to be out of bounds to everyone. I dared not try to enter, for lord knows what was in there. I hurried over to the cells and began handing the prisoners their food. “Your new” one remarked, lifting his head up and looking at me “yes, I’ve been here a few weeks, I’ve just been given the job of feeding you today, but my tasks change every day so don’t expect me to be here regularly” I replied. We weren’t supposed to talk to the prisoners but I couldn’t bring myself to ignore them. When they had all been given their meals, I left, making sure I was quick about it. I was in a hurry, so I did not see Spencer walking towards me. I crashed into him, and fell to the floor. 

“Watch where your going you stupid girl!” He yelled, yanking me to my feet “I’m so sorry sir” I apologised, Boeing my head. On my first day as a maid we were told to address all royals as ‘sir’, ‘madam’, ‘your grace’ your highness’, ‘your majesty’, ‘His majesty’ or ‘her majesty’. It was very tiresome but it was the rules. He sighed irritably and stalked off, not taking any notice of me afterwards.

Spencer’s POV:

I sighed as I walked away from Chloe. God she was so clumsy! She wasn’t even looking where she was going! I had been avoiding her as best I could to ensure whatever feelings I had for her, or thought I had for her, would vanish, but no such thing had happened. In fact, being away from her made my feelings even stronger, and the thought infuriated me. How could a human have an effect on me like this?! Me?! The VampIre King! I snarled as I walked on, furious with myself for allowing her to affect me in such a way.
