Love Hurts
My housekeeper for years, Thalia, bowed at me while holding a tray of food in her hands.
"Sir Martin, Madam Shantel told me to prepare you some food once you woke up!" she hesitantly uttered earning her a raised eyebrow.
"When did she say that?" I was not upset, but probably my loud voice quivered her and the fact that she obeyed another person's order. It was the ultimate rule in my house to obey me only, no one else. However, she was the second person who deliberately disobeyed me today.
