“It was fine. Grandmother says hello.” Amara says as she squints at me.
“Where is your future Queen? We would love to meet her.” Amara says in a sarcastic tone.
I let go of Alena and sat back down. “You just missed her, sister.” I say and I start to open up a file on one of the pack requests.
“Great, then we may all have dinner together. I have so many questions for our future sister – in -law.” She says with a little disgust laced in her voice.
She is firmly against me choosing a mate. Katherine left a sour image in her head about what mates are supposed to be like.
“You will meet her in time. She is still getting used to it here.” I say.
“So you chose an idiot. If she has been here for two weeks she should be assembled into the castle and the people. Obviously if she was competent she would already be settled in.” She says.
“She is not an idiot Mar. She is just still getting acquainted with castle life and her duties.” I say. Even though I have no idea how she is doing. The only thing I know for sure is that she eats in her room during meals. She seems to be a person who likes to be alone.
“Brother, guess what Nona taught.” Alena starts but before she could finish Amara cuts her off.
“Alarick has a lot of work to do, Alena. You can tell him about it at dinner. Let us go get settled in.”
Alena huffs and stomps out, while Amara nods and walks out and closes the door.
“Well that was nice.” Markus says.
“Shut up.” I say back to him as he starts laughing.
LeeAca’s POV
I am walking around the kitchen to find this Ms. Louise. I have asked 3 servants and nobody knows where she is. I start to wander around halls to hopefully find who I am looking for. Finally I find a room that looks like an office. There are a bunch of papers hanging on the wall as I take a closer look at them I see they are schedules. I look around and see a small name plate on the desk that says Ms. Louise.
“Perfect.” I say to myself as I take a seat.
“I TOLD YOU NOT TO MOP WITH THAT THING. IT IS DISGUSTING. WE HAVE THE NEW ELECTRIC MOP THINGS THAT SCRUB THE FLOORS.” I hear screaming as the voice gets closer. I am guessing that is Ms. Lousie. I turn to an older lady, maybe in her 50s walking through the door. She is cursing under her breath and turns around.
Her gray hair is pulled into a tight bun. He has dark brown eyes and a longer, more pointed nose, that would make most people intimidated. Her voice is lower and rougher like she should have been a warrior trainer.
“Oh hello. You must be the new hire. Let me go over the rules with you and get your uniform.”
She says with a smile on her face. I look at her questioningly as she goes to a filing cabinet and starts pulling out clothing.
“No ma’am. I am not a new hire. My name is LeeAca and I was wanting to talk with you.”
She stops what she is doing and turns around. Her face went pale and her mouth was hanging open.
“OH LUNA! I did not realize that it was you. I am so sorry. Please forgive me. I would have never thought that the luna would come here. Please.” She rumbles on. I just raise my hand to stop her.
“You are alright. I am not upset. I just wanted to speak with you about my lady’s maid. I am ready to receive one. I would prefer to talk with you in person, rather than over the phone.”
“Oh of course. I understand.” Her emotions went from frightened and panicked to relief and slight confusion.
“The maid who brought up the telephone, Redna. I would like her to be my Ladies Maid. I am not in need of many things, so I will only need one and she will do.” Her face falls and her brows furrow.
“If I may. Luna, we have five women who are trained to be the Royal’s maids. There is no need to have an inexperienced maid such as Redna. If you wish to choose one, I would recommend Ms.Connie. She is highly skilled in hair and makeup. As well as knowledge of holistic health. She would be the best fit for you.” She says with a little hint of annoyance.
“Well, Ms. Louis, as much as I appreciate the offer, I really enjoyed Redna today. How about a compromise? On an everyday scale I will have Redna, but during special events, I will have Redna and anybody else you deem acceptable to help me.” I say in a tone that lets her know this is not negotiable.
“Oh Well of course Luna. I will switch Redna tomorrow. You know… this may actually help. The princesses arrived back just a few moments ago and the other lady maids will be busy with them.” She says.
“I greatly appreciate it Ms. Louis. Have a wonderful day.” I say as she looks at me curiously and I walk out. The rest of the day was as per usual. I ate lunch in my room and then grabbed a notebook and went out to the garden. I am sitting there when I hear footsteps. I look up to see a girl around my sister’s age.
“Hello.” She says and sits down next to me in the grass.
“Hi.” I say with a small smile.
