WHO WILL TAME THE BEAST?

Chapter 7

King Rex's POV

The maid was a beauty. I felt bad for asking her out of my chambers in the manner that i did but I couldn't help it. Her eyes were emerald and when i asked her to look at me, she stared directly into my eyes. Nobody not even kings from other kingdoms has ever done that. She's supposed to be scared of me but it seems she's not.
I've never been scared but it seems she brought out the fear in me. I needed to do something about her but how would i go about it?

Am I getting soft or is prophecy finally here? Not wanting to question things any further, I decided to put on my disguise and find out who the maid truly is.

Walking down the halls of the palace with my disguise still on, I bumped into someone which i knew was a female and she apologized when i was the one at fault. She didn't even look at me and i also didn't get a glance at her.

Using my magic to transform into one of the kitchen guards who was on leave today, i walked into the kitchen to begin my search.

"Zaya go assist Irene with the dishes"

That was her name. I quickly turned my gaze up and in my peripheral vision i saw her. The maid that has been on my mind for the past week.

Excuse me Mrs Agatha, the king has asked for Irene.

They were murmur's of what has she done to be called by our heartless king? what does he want with her? has the beast finally taken an interest in someone?
I wasn't mad but suprised that they still had the guts to talk about me in secret. It seems i need to remind them of how ruthless i can be. I need to use the throne room.

Wh..at? I heard a small voice that couldn't have been heard if not for my ability to hear from afar.
Are you still here Irene? Quickly go meet the king! Mrs Agatha whisper yelled at Irene and that seemed to have brought her back from her perplexed state.

I was already out of patience but didn't want to scare the kitchen staffs so i walked out of the kitchen.

"I hope you know you've been standing there for the past 30minutes thereby telling the king to wait. And nobody tells the king what to do."I whispered in her ears before walking out of the kitchen.

Getting to my room, i began pacing while thinking about her. She seems to be a simple and fragile girl but of course I shouldn't let looks deceive me. I guess I should just read her, but for me to read her she needs to be with me at all times amd i know just the right way to do that.

"Can i come in my lord?"
