Warrior Princess

Chapter 15

I was sitting on the bed boring myself to death. He still haven't come back, its almost two hours now. 

What type of  mate is he? He act like his world revolve around me. And he didn't even come to check on his own mate. 

I scoffed at the thought. Mate my  *ss. I stood up and decided to explore this place, I can't just sit around and waste my time like an imbecile. So I made my way towards the door from which Chase entered in the room and to my relief, it was open, I thought he would lock me up here. I saw a corridor while I closed the door behind me. This room was at the end of the corridor. I guess the King like his privacy.

I started walking , there was only one room in this corridor that was opposite of the room I was in, other than that the whole corridor was long and vacant. I walked taking in my surroundings, walls as usual were beautifully crafted with different stones. It almost made me stop and stare at the wall for a minute. "Can I help you Miss?" A maid said bowing to me. 

I never even see her walking my way. 

"I am just roaming around" I said casually and smiled at her. "But Miss, King asked for your presence in the dining hall" she said looking at the ground.  

Why is she looking down there, Is there anything interesting there?

"Why are you not looking at me?" I asked confused. She trembled a little but replied anyway "We are servants, we are not allowed to look at the Royalty in eyes" she said nervously, her hands were shaking as well. 

They treat their servants like slave here. 

"You don't have to do that with me, I am not Royalty, just a normal being" I smiled trying to ease her nervousness. She still looked at the ground.  "Can you show me the dining hall" I asked after a while when she didn't reply to my previous question. She nodded and started walking, I followed her without any words. 

She is girl of few words or maybe servants here are too afraid to talk. 

"What is your name?" I tried to start small conversation. I cannot just walk in silent. This is just boring. 

"Anna" she said in small voice still not looking at me. "Are you always like that?" I asked walking beside her now and looking at her to see the reaction. "Like what Miss?" she asked timidly. Anna was such a beautiful girl- petite, long blond hair, blue eyes. But the expression on her face doesn't match her beauty. It looked like she is always been afraid. "Like not speaking to any one" I shrug. "I just speak where its necessary, otherwise we, servant will be punished" she said like it happen to her every time.  "Oh" I said surprise clearly evident on my face.

Its not my matter but I feel bad for her, living like that her whole life must be difficult.

We rounded a corner and she opened a door. I didn't even realize that we reached the place. "Here Miss" she bowed and waited for my response. "Thank you" I smiled in gratitude. "Anything else you need" she asked politely. "Yes, Actually one thing I asked from you, When we meet next time, don't bow at me" I asked to her. She looked at me surprised, a smile evident on her face. She nodded and went away in other direction. A smile on my face as well, at least I made her smile even it was little. 

I sighed and entered in the room. A long table was sat in the middle with the numbers of chairs on both side. Tiles were shiny, you can even look you face in them. But the most disappointing thing was that nobody was in the room. 

I am called here just to wait for that Jerk. This is so not happening! 

I turned around to went back where I came from but bumped into the same person whom should have been here before me. "Finally you arrived" he said while steadying me. "Where were you?" I ask causally but it voiced out a little angry. He raised an eye brow at this "I thought it doesn't matter to you" he said amused, I huffed "It doesn't" and turned out to walked in the dining hall. He chuckled behind me. I took the nearest seat and sat on it. He followed and sat beside me. "There are plenty of chairs, why don't you sit somewhere else" I said annoyed and looked at the interior of this place. "This place belongs to me, I can sit anywhere I want Angel" his replied came conceited.
