Chapter 15 Mona’s doings
Mona’s POV:
I almost screamed, but I managed to cover my mouth with my palms. I can’t believe what I just saw. Apart from the fact that the place reeked of filth, they were also going to burn her feet.
I scratched my head in confusion trying hard not to make a sound.
“What do I do? How do I help her out since she was granted permission to torture her by the Master?” I paced around trying to think of something.
Suddenly, a thought popped into my head, and I widened my eyes trying to comprehend it. I rushed off immediately. The least I can do is to rescue poor Madison from that monster that calls herself Emery. Emery and I used to be best friend’s when she got into the castle.
We practically did everything together because I’ve always wanted someone who I could call my sister. She was brought to the castle when the Master went to fight with the enemy clan. Emery was abducted alongside with some women of the clan when Stone defeated their clan.
Then, she was a very nice person. We were always together that some people actually thought we were blood sisters. But all the closeness went away when she was able to satisfy the Master’s sexual urge. That has always been the one problem that the Master has been facing. His inability to ejaculate when having sexual intercourse.
So when Emery satisfied his sexual desires when no one else could, he made her his favorite s*x slave. That was how she became special amongst the other slaves. She was no longer treated like a slave or even dressed like a slave.
She was allowed to dress like a princess instead of a slave that she is. Since then, she began to belittle me. She chose Maria as her servant instead of me who happened to be like a sister to her then. That was how we lost the precious relationship that we had shared.
And now she wants to kill the only true friend that I have now because of jealousy. I bet she’s jealous because Madison is really more beautiful than she is. She must be afraid that she would lose her title of the Master’s favorite slave to Madison which is bound to happen.
I ran down the hallway thinking of what to do, so that I can stop her. I can’t go to the Master’s room without an invitation unless I have a death wish. Furthermore, I was lost in thought that I didn’t see Axel, I bumped into him, and he caught me.
“Axel?” I called with my tiny voice, and disengaged the hug. He gulped hard taking his gaze off me.
“What is wrong with you, Mona? Where are you rushing off to?” Axel asked, with his gaze still avoiding mine.
Suddenly, smiles escaped my lips when I thought he could be of help to me. He’s the Master’s best friend and favorite guard. They’ve been friends since childhood, and he can go into the Master’s chambers without any invitation.
“I need your help” I snapped, and he turned his gaze to me immediately with narrowed eyes.
“You need my help?” He repeated glaring at me, and I nodded my head even before he could finish the statement.
“Yes, please you have to help me on this” I pleaded with him with my palms together. He took a deep breath, and shrugged.
“What is it?” He exhaled deeply, and I gulped nervously praying within myself that he will grant my request.
“I need to see the Master. There’s something important I have to tell him” I replied with pleading eyes, and he scoffed turning his back on me.
“What kind of request is that? What makes you think I’ll do what you’re asking me to? Have you forgotten the penalty you get when you visit the master uninvited?” Axel snorted.
“It’s a matter of life and death. It’s Emery, she’s punishing the poor slave. The torture she’s giving her is quite unbearable” I cried out.
“Emery? Punishing a slave? Who granted her the permission to do that? Has she gone nuts? What makes her think she’s allowed to do whatever she likes to get fellow slave?” Axel flared up. From the onset, he has never liked Emery. They’re more like enemies in the castle.
“I don’t know, but if we don’t do anything to stop her, I’m afraid the slave might not live” I said with a sniff.
“What’s going on here?” That was Lady Delia’s voice. She walked towards is staring at us with narrowed eyes.
Thank goodness! It was her. If it were to be that heartless Lioness, she would have helped Emery kill the slave.
“My Lady” I bowed at her, and she patted my back a little before I stood upright.
“What happened? Seems like you both are having a serious conversation, do you mind if I know what this is all about?” She spoke gracefully.
“My Lady, it’s the new slave Madison. I think she’s in trouble, and we need to help her, if not she might not live” I cried out, and she widened her eyes in shock.
“She may not live? What? Why?” Lady Delia anxiously inquired.
“Emery is punishing her. She’s going to make her life miserable, actually I saw her roasting the poor slave’s feet” I explained, and Lady Delia flared up.
“What nonsense! How dare she? I’ll talk to the Master” Lady Delia rushed off, and I exhaled deeply. I pray they rescue her on time before Emery succeeds in killing her.
Lucien’s POV:
I was seated in my inner chambers writing with an ink pen on a scroll when I heard a knock on my chamber door. Who dares come to my chambers without invitation?
“Get in here, you insolent….” I was still speaking when Lady Delia barged in. I narrowed my eyebrows in shock. Furthermore, I never thought she would come to see me.
Not only that, but I looked at her face, and saw her worried she looks. Likewise, I could see how bittered she looks as well.
“Who dares get on the peacefully Delia’s bad side?” I spoke with the most croaky voice in annoyance…..
