The Diary of She

Chapter 17

I work on my choices based on kindness, respect, current level of authority and how good they are at their job. I demote, promote and fire people. Mallory comes in to help me change and I decide to ask her something.

"Hey Mallory I have a few choices for you. Would you like to be The Head of Maids or my Personal Maid? I'm just trying to figure out the employee list but I'd really like you to be one of the two." I finish.

"I'd love to be your personal maid still. I know it's a bit unprofessional but I kinda consider you like my sister" she tells me with a happy smile.

"And I do the same thing! Okay your dismissed take tomorrow off. I will make sure you still get paid for it, you deserve a break." I tell her.

I glance at my bed and see James already shirtless and asleep.

Of course.

"Thank you so much Quinn, have a good night" she says shutting the door behind her.

I open my closet and pull out short shorts and a sports bra. I slip them on and climb into bed.

I pull the covers up and cuddle into my bed and sub concisely scoot closer to him. I lean on his shoulder and wrap my arm around him.

I started drifting off to sleep when I feel his arm wrap around the back of me allowing me to scoot closer.

Which I if course do.

2 Weeks Later

I walk into the small observation room and look through the one way mirror. I find my mom, Mallory and Adelaide sitting there.

Moms 3rd in charge- Bryan sits in there waiting for the first of the 11 applicants to come in.

We take notes on everyone and their skill sets and narrow it down to 2 candidates.

We dismiss the other nine with a congratulatory notice for applying and getting this far.

Me meet the two candidates Stephanie ( she goes by Steph) and Chris we talk to them for a little while and the 4 of us decide on Steph.

We dismiss Chris and congratulate Stephanie. They give her the information for her training, uniforms, room and wages/times.

We send her home to start packing and we empty a room on the 3rd floor for her.

James has returned back to his kingdom. I will admit I miss him a little tiny tiny- a lot.

The castle is quickly changing to my liking and it's kind of bizarre.

In a month or less we're hosting another ball. James even gets to sit with us!

In a few months the pressure for him to propose will begin. And I feel AWFUL.

I head back to my room and drop onto my bed. I get a group FaceTime call with Otto, Anastasia, James, Natalia and I.

James started the call since we still need to tell them we're dating. Oops!?
