Chapter 53 Madison’s task
Emery’s POV
“Ouch!” I cried out as Maria applied some balm on my aching back.
“I’m sorry. But you caused all this for yourself, if you hadn’t gone to meet that girl Madison, I’m sure you wouldn’t have run into Lioness” Maria exhaled deeply.
“You know what, sometimes I wonder if you’re really my friend Maria. You should be siding with me, but here you are criticizing me” I cried out.
“I’m your friend, Emery. That’s the reason why I’m looking out for you. You know how much lioness hates you, and you still keep getting into her trap. When are you going to realize that you’re only going to keep getting yourself into trouble if you continue pestering that slave Madison?” Maria asked.
“Maria, I’m sure you have forgotten the kind of friend that you have. I can’t give up no matter what. It’s 3 days Maria, 3 days and the master has not summoned me to his chambers. Do you still think things are normal between the both of us? Have you forgotten that I’m the only slave in this Castle that can quench the Master’s sexual urge? So it’s quite impossible for him not to have summoned me for the past 3 days, that’s the reason why I have a bad feeling about that girl” I lamented.
“What if the master is not in the mood of anything? Probably he doesn’t want to have sex that’s why he hasn’t summoned you? You shouldn’t just conclude when you don’t even know what it was that must have happened” Maria replied sharply.
“You’re so unbelievable Maria. I feel like slapping your face real hard” I gritted my teeth in annoyance.
“I’m really sorry if that’s what you think, why did you go to meet that girl in the first place? Ever since you decided to poke your nose into her affairs, all you’ve done is get yourself into trouble” Maria continued.
“You expect me to let her be? Have you forgotten that that girl is going to take away my title from me if I let her?” I struggled up, and Maria shook her head.
“How sure are you, Emery? There’s no guarantee that she’s going to do that. Why don’t you forget about her?” Maria groaned.
“What do you know, Maria? You don’t know how tough this is for me, I’m sure you don’t know that this title of mine is what keeps me going. No matter what happens, I will never let anyone take that title away from me” I replied, and got up from the bed.
“Can you imagine? If I lose that title that means I have to go back to the slaves quarters. Those rooms there are infested with mosquitoes, and many other insects. I have to continue paying the Master’s favorite slave” I kept telling myself that.
Now I have a feeling that Madison is going to take the master from me, and I’m not going to let that happen.
I was still pacing around when we heard a knock on the door.
“Get the door Maria” I ordered, and she obeyed immediately. That’s the power I have, and I’m not willing to give it up for anything.
Maria twisted the doorknob, and the door creaked open. Rodolfo walked in, and I stared at him in surprise. Actually, Rodolfo and I are really close.
“What are you doing here Rodolfo? It’s late for you to show up here. What if the master finds you here?” I whispered with my eyes widened.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
“I made sure no one saw me entering the room” Rodolfo replied, and I exhaled deeply.
“What is it? I don’t have any gemstones to give you. The Master has not yet summoned me for the past 3 days. If you have any information about why the Master is yet to summon me then you have my audience, if not then please leave” I turned my gaze away looking bittered.
“It’s about Madison the slave” He started, and I quickly turned my gaze to him with furrowed eyebrows.
“What? Madison the slave? What does this have to do with her?” I asked with furrowed eyebrows.
“She did something today. She violated the rules, and entered the room that everyone is forbidden to enter” Rodolfo snapped, and I arched my eyebrows.
“What? Is the master aware of this? If he’s not, then let me go tell him about it. That Madison must bear the consequences of her actions” I spoke up with a mischievous smirk.
“There’s no need for that Emery, the Master actually caught her inside the room. He almost ordered her killed but…” Rodolfo was saying, but I had to cut him short.
“What do you mean ‘but’? The Master will definitely have her killed” I freaked out.
“We thought so too, but unfortunately, she made the master’s daughter speak after five years” Rodolfo scratched his head, and I gasped in shock.
Madison’s POV
I was already very much afraid, not until I heard what the Master had to say.
“Did I make myself clear? Or do you want me to repeat myself with turns of whipping?” The Master yelled at me, and I nodded my head in fear.
His voice alone made my soul almost jump out of my body.
“Ye… yes Master” I stammered in fear, and he smirked.
“If you fail to make my daughter go back to normal, I’ll make life unbearable for you. You’ll be left with no choice than to beg death to take you away from the surface of the earth. That’s a promise slave” He banged his fist on the table where he kept a scroll, and I flinched
“Yes Master! I promise to do anything and everything it takes to make Zara better. I won’t disappoint you master” I spoke with tears circulating in my eyes.
“Get lost!” He yelled at me, and I nodded. I rushed out of the room in fear.
Now I have to do anything I can to make the master’s daughter get better if I value my life. That’s the only way I can live. Can I really do that?
