My Prince Derek

My Prince Derek Chapter 8: The Perfect Plan

HOLY SHIT! Was the first thought that came to my mind when I woke up.  I cannot remember what happened after Kea and I came into my room.  Thinking about Kea where is he? I was in my bed under the covers, and I did not see one trace of him anywhere.  I reluctantly climbed out of bed, and walked into my bathroom.  I looked up at my reflection in the mirror and sighed my hair was knotty, and my makeup smeared. 

I heard a knock on my door and screamed for them to come in.  Little to my surprise it was Odette walking in with a thick cloak of hate seething out of her pores.  She stalked into my bathroom and started screaming at me.  I waited patiently till she calmed down and caught her breath.   Odette looked up at me with piercing eyes and said, "We need to get rid of Paris, right now!"  I waited for her to explain, but she just huffed and puffed and said nothing more.  I tilted my head to the right then to the left and asked her why. 

"She is E-V-I-L, EVIL!  I was roaming the grounds of the garden, and heard someone breathing really heavily.  I was worried because Derek sometimes breathes like that because of his heart.  So I started looking and there I saw them!  Paris and Derek kissing and rolling around in the grass as if they were horses scratching their backs!  I turned and ran to find you because you were supposed to be with him! WHERE ON EARTH WERE YOU!" Odette slowly raised her voice louder as if I was deaf after each sentence. 

I swallowed while tears started leaking from my eyes, this was the second time that Derek had hurt me in less than a three day period.  I feel to my hands and knees and started bawling.  Odette walked over to me and squated down; she petted my head and told me it was not my fault.  I looked up at her when my sobs started to subside, and explained exactly what happened.  I was surprised when Odette rose to her feet and reached out her hand for me to take.  We called a truths for now, and settled on making a plan on getting Paris out of this house.  I originally thought Paris was going to be my friend, but who does she think she is messing around with every guy in her path?  She is not even Derek's Mistress!

Odette and I are going to meet later this night, and she discreetly sneaked out of my room.  I sat down on my bed and decided I had to do something productive.  So I left my room in search for the kitchen to talk to Cecania find out what she knows.  The hallways and rooms are slowly getting familiar, and instead of taking me an hour to get to the kitchen it only took me ten minutes.  I stopped outside of the grey, cold metal doors.  I heard the dropping of pots and pans and yells from the other side.  I debated if this was a good time to go in and talk to her.

Curiosity got to the best of me, and I walked through the french doors.  Cecania quited down and looked over at me.  I looked up to see the person she was yelling at, which was no other than Kea.  Cecania shooed him out of the kitchen and grabbed a stool and sat on it.  She ushered for me to grab a chair and to sit down; however, I stood still with a questioning look on my face.  "So do you like him?" Cecania asked with a tinge of anger.  "Do you like my Brother?" She asked again.  "Wait, what?  He is your brother?" I exclaimed.  She nodded and told me not to mess with his heart.  He gets hurt enough having to work here.  I looked at her surprised she would think I would hurt him. 

After an awkward silence she looked at me and asked why I came to the kitchen.  "I need your help.  I need to find out a little more about Paris and her past."  I practically barfed out.  "So Basically you need my help to get dirt on P." She asked intrigued.  I nodded hoping she would help me out so Odette and I can make a more full proof plan.  "Let me see, well since I am the longest employ this place has had I guess I know a few things or two."  She gloated with a smile.  "Okay, Paris was originally an orphan.  Kinda like the rest of us, she was abandoned.  Opal found her one day and took her home hoping Derek could pretend she was a little sister or something."
