XenraRight before me was standing the annoying dwarf with an annoying grin on his face. The sight of it filled me with a great sense of rage.The fact that he had laid his filthy fingers on me made my blood boil. At that instant, I felt strength running through my veins, fuelled by his audacious move."What do you want?" I asked, my words filled with anger as I glared at him. "Shhhh!" He gestured at me to keep my voice down. "You're a fair lady, exactly my preferred type of woman; how about we have a little fun? You can call it fun after work," he said, his words wrapped with chuckle.Deep within me, I was beginning to boil over. The fact that somebody like him could see me as his type made me nibble on my lip as I tried to control the furnace brewing within me.I was doing my best to keep my anger in check and not grant him the death sentence he deserved for laying his cursed hands on me.My face was tight with a simmering anger, but the idiot didn't get my warning as he walked clo

Xenra Right there, I began to ponder what lesson he'd teach me. I had worried about being careful not to get demoted again, but as it was, I didn't mind getting demoted than working with that animal as a boss. I scoffed in total disbelief, a light chuckle escaping my lips as I realised not even one of them was concerned about the truth or even cared to listen to my words, even though I wasn't finding it funny in any way. "What are you laughing out?" One of the guards glared at me, but if only they knew I was rather shocked than amused. "You still have the face to smile, huh?" The chief security latrine officer said, his tone tight with anger. "By the time I'm done dealing with you, I'm sure you wouldn't have the face to smile again, and then you'd know who is in charge." He stated, his words tumbling out in a rush. My lips curled upwards, and another scoff escaped my lips as his threat replayed in my head. I had been through the worst possible form of insults and humiliation sin

Xenra a Oh no, Akira. Couldn't she at least get the signal that I didn't want to be disturbed? "Let me see her," I heard Akira's soft voice as she stopped a few feet away from the door. At that instant, a number of guards rushed towards me, and since my head was still bowed, I could only see them after I had lifted my head. One of them pulled my hair backwards; the unexpected force caused me to glare at him and eye him up and down, but they couldn't do anything to me since Akira was watching. But what do I care? Since I didn't want to be selected, I didn't mind appearing rude as long as it would drive her away. They roughly cut and loosened the ropes around my hands and feet and dragged me up like soldiers who had just received a military order. As they began to drag me towards the door, I saw Akira peering through the door. "Be gentle with her," she said gently. 'It seems she isn't as heartless as her big brother, after all,' I said to myself, my words laced w

XenraAs I made to leave, I was stunned to see a maid standing a few feet away from the door. When did she get in? I thought, as I began to ponder if she had heard my words."When did you get in? What are you doing here?" I threw my questions to her, my eyes narrowing as I attempted to read every one of her nonverbal cues.But my question seemed to have startled her instead. "Oh, I'm so sorry," her response came with a small stuttering."I was supposed to freshen up after you, so I came in here to get my things." Her words tumbled out in a rush. But I heard her last words faintly, as I had already drifted back into thought. Does that mean she had been standing there for quite some time?I took two steps closer to her, my gaze fixed intently on her as I determined to find out if she had heard me and how much she had heard. "Okay," I said as calmly as I could."So, does that mean you heard me just now? Like, you heard what I just said?" I asked her, my words dripping with suspicion as

Xenra I was led by the head guard to Akira's palace. As soon as I got into her palace, I couldn't stop admiring the beautiful scenery, the large garden with a lot of lighting and poles, the spring in the middle of the compound, and the luxurious building. I was wowed by such high-level development. It was clear that Asher was taking good care of her. I had witnessed his care and love for her after the death of their parents, and I could tell that it didn't reduce a bit. Even though Asher was cold-blooded, I needed no one to tell me that he had a soft spot for his sister. The guard led me into a hall that was both large and beautiful. The walls were decorated with different portraits of her and her lovely brother, along with the portraits of their late parents. There were other artistic pictures of different scenery hanging up on the other side of the wall. A large chandelier hung down the high ceiling, with a fireplace at the other end of the wall. As I withdrew m
