“Did she just say No or are my ears playing pranks on me?” Alledandro wondered, amused.
Never before has anyone ever blatantly told him ‘’No” to a command he gave.
If he wanted a thousand girls to strip naked in public, they wouldn't dare say No to him, but this little Demon seems to have defiled logic and done just that.
This left Alledandro amused and at the same time flabbergasted.
“A..Am sorry, but I can't do it” Aurora stuttered, trying to sound bold and unshaken, but the anxious tapping of her feet betrayed her.
“You do know I have every power to make you regret saying ‘’No,’ but you still went ahead and did just that. I am curious as to your wits, so do me the honor of indulging myself,” Alledandro queried with a smile and a carefree tone.
But Aurora knew better than to trust his care-free attitude, but her thoughts still conflicted between being honest or saving her ass.
“My patience is quite low, so I advise you to speak,“ Alledandro conveyed not trying to hide the message he was conveying.
“My whole family has been slaves for as long as I can remember,” Aurora spoke. “I had to watch my mother get beaten and bruised, saw my father do unimaginable things, so I decided, I don't want this life, I want to be free from shackles. I don't mind losing my life if that's what it's worth,” Aurora finished speaking.
There was silence in the room for so long that the silence was considered to be loud.
“Leave,” Alledandro finally spoke. Aurora was wondering if she heard right.”I should leave?” She asked, “I hate repeats little Demon, don't make me change my mind.”
As though she had been struck by lightning, she quickly raised up her gown and sprinted out of the room, running straight to her dormitory.
“She is interesting,” Alledandro spoke amidst his voice, barely a whisper as a slow smile formed on his face.
This was the first time anyone had ever defiled his order. His order had always been carried out down to word, but this little Demon not only defiled but stood her ground, it was an interesting experience indeed.
Meanwhile, Aurora was already in her bed, her heart beating loudly as though she had run a marathon. Her mind wouldn't stop replaying the scenes of earlier events.
“How would he react to me?”
“Is he going to execute me?”
“Or rather still, punish me severely. “
Many thoughts and more kept running wild in her head till the welcoming arms of sleep carried her from the waking world.
She was woken up by the alarm as she got up to begin her daily routine, but she froze, she was going to go back to his room.
Not knowing what to do, she steeled her mind and went upstairs to do her daily chores, but as if the heavens had pity on her, he wasn't in the room.
She quickly tidied the room and took the clothes to do the laundry. Around mid-afternoon, Alledandro entered the castle, he quickly went upstairs and started freshening up.
“Am sorry, miss, but I think you may not be doing these chores for now.” Stefan broke Aurora out of her thoughts.
“W..what do you mean?” she stammered.
“You won't be doing these chores again, as the master has already assigned you as his personal maid.” Stefan delivered a shocking statement, and as if to clear her doubts that this wasn't any prank, he continued.
“Your duty as his personal maid includes, following his orders, you would tend to follow him on most of his movements. So there is a new uniform in your dormitory, so I suggest you prepare because he would be leaving in 10 minutes".
