Chapter 1 - cleaning

"Morning!!". Estella's voice rang out from the entrance of the ballroom. She looks gorgeous as always.

"Morning!" Meridth grumbled , "and Incase you haven't realized.. we are here to clean not to start jolly frolicking so get your fucking ass over and start doing your job"

"Oh my gosh, meridth chillax. I'm already doing MY JOB so you need to chill, honey" I told her.

"So you are defending her now , uh" meridth replied.

"You know what let's just do this shit and get out of here, before matron comes , I really don't want to get scolded early this morning".

Meridth, Estella and I are maids here in the palace ... Our king , King Edward the third III

Is having his younger son married off, it's funny cause they won't allow him to pick a damn bride by himself what a life ... From my perspective, I am lucky at least my parents didn't throw me away or sell me off to some random guy. I can marry whoever I want .

We don't actually live in the castle, why would we.. what is this?!, the ninety's

I don't even know why... To this mordern day , we are still making marriage alliances, load of bullshit .

"How's your mum?!" I ask Estella.. she sort of have family issues, her father's a complete jerk.. he married two other women behind her mother's back and now they've getting birth and they are getting to know about all his evil involvements to make matters worse , he isn't some rich empire king or smth along those lines .

He's a fraudstar and just got arrested. So no one to take care of the women and their babies , they can't work yet cause they just got off pregnancy and Estella mother is always working her ass off to clear her father's debt... What a life!!!

"She's trying her best, father owes about 600 million euros!"

"600!!!" I exclaimed "how the fuck would you get that type of money"

"No idea boo, life's being hard!!" She sighed

I really couldn't do anything for her.. I'm not really facing challenges as deep as she is but I'm just doing this job because she is... We're best friends and we always stuck together.

"I'll ask my mum to help" I told her

"Oh no don't bother, it's not that much"

"Not that much, wow, I love your..."

"Do I sense people talking?" Matron bellowed from where she stood ..

The granny be scary as fuck. She's old and I'm not sure she knows, she can do literally everything... But nothing beats her specialty, picking at us for no absolute reason , she's a vibe destroyer too .. did I mention !!

Meridth replied " it's the two jolly friends"

"Estella and Zoey, come over right now! ,I see you're not serious with this job... You'll be pleased with what I have in store for you both"!!

"Ughhhhhh" I mentally cried

It's gonna be a long day, I can bet she's taking us to the black part of the castle.

Before leaving I gave meridth a cold stare. Can't she just keep her stinking mouth shut, bomboclat....

Matron dragged us by our ears immediately to her front.

"Ouch.. ouch ...ouch...ouchhhhhhhhh"

I cried out . I'm not a fan of pain my dears .

She lets us go when we are fully standing In the corridor.

"What was the discussion about?" She asked.

We know we aren't meant to talk, but this is a question for crying out loud ..

I looked up at her to give her a small reply of some sort so she wouldn't feel dumb.. you feel me.

But I guess she had other plans..

She told me to get on my knees, immediately.. and then she pressed my head to the bitingly cold floor, it still smlles strongly of mop and soap. She added a lot of force to my head... She even switched to her foot ...

Estella gasped, but she couldn't do anything..

"Now you, you never learn your lesson. I'm the one that's gonne kill you if you don't stay on your lane."

She released me and Immediately stood up... But that lead to a slap.

"Who gave you the audacity to stand up, did I tell you to stand" she bellowed..

Wow she's scary for a small woman.

I immediately bowed my head again .. I'll make sure to tell my mum about this.. I'm going to kidnap her and get back for what she's doing...

Then she told us to follow her

"I'm sorry Zoey, I'm sure were going to the black part now" she whispered so small I had to open my ears to hear her .I'm sure the ugly granny heard but thankfully she didn't turn her back.

We walked for what felt like ages, we passed the three gardens In the palace, if you ask me that's waste of space and land .

We passed a lot of houses and hostel like building... I can't even begin to count..

Finally we got there , the scariest place in the entire entire castle ... It's far away from human civilization if you ask me. And totally boring, it looked like a castle on its own if you ask me , it has a lot of potential to be honest , but it's all black and feels kind of demonic... I reject every negative feeling .

I'm not exactly religious, but we need the lord most times , especially if you're working with this evil excuse of a woman.

She told us to go inside and scrub the place .. she wouldn't follow us inside, I know of that, why would anyone go inside ...

It's filthy I know that for sure .

We walk ahead of her and into the castle , Estella was shaking like a leaf .

I'm the bolder one of us tho , she's too soft, like a baby...

I walk ahead of her , I'm scared too don't get me wrong but I'm not shaking .

We take a stop around the huge piles of dirt scattered across the compound.

"We'll start here" I say to Estella

"Ohk" , she muttered

I sometimes feel the need to push her out to the world to experience how harsh life is, she fits the princess dynamic shit.. while I'm the warrior , can't ever be a princess.

We start cleaning, then one of my many rapist walked up to us

Goodness gracious.. he's annoying

If I had any idea he worked here to begin with and was just a guard . I would have picked my heels and ran to save my life .

He stood far from us but yelled , sort of mocking us

"Yoo dorks, what are you doing in the black part, did smth nasty... It's high time you got a punishment by the way."

I just looked and ignored , people like him was a waste of time .

I met him in a club , he likes hot that night .. at least that's how I remember him looking.

Now he looked so chopped , ugly , a monster .... I don't do ugly cowards too

He wanted to sleep with me , but I love my virginity very much and of course he didn't agree

He was forcing me , I kinda knew shit like that was going to happen.

And a mysterious guy came to my rescue , he was hot I give him that, handsome in fact .. I think I had a nose bleed at some point .

It appears he was just passing by and helped a random stranger who was struggling for her life . To make him more mysterious he was wearing a mask ...

I looked at him like he was god...

I really wanted to rip that shitty excuse of a mask from his goddamn face...

But he loomed above me , he was tall I took note , not like I'll ever see him again.

The guard boy ran away I didn't bother knowing his name , after he scared the guard boy , coward!! , I walked away too , there was absolutely nothing to talk about.

"Wait!!"

"Wait!?" I asked myself

"I'd like to know your name" he said

"No, pretty boy, I don't share my precious name"

Then I left, I couldn't see his face , what if he was a kidnapper or a ritualist.. we need to be realistic in this life.

Just be careful of the scary god that loves here.

Wait what.. that made me look up at him.

What scary guy

I've never seen anyone here before

At least since I started working here , about two weeks ago and no one talks about any guy here .

"What guy?"

He might be lying, you never know .

"I've never seen a guy here before" Estella said .

"Me either, he might be lying, just ignore" I told her

"I'm not lying bitch..." Then he ran off.

I was confused as to why he ran...

Goodness he's so pathetic.

Then I noticed Estella shaking again

Ughhhh, what is it this time !!

Then I look at her and see that she's looking up..I follow her line of sight and bloody hell

A dead man hanging from the veranda... Shitttttttttt
