Anna was furious at Etik for just leaving her standing that way.
And there was no way she could go after him.
Not in front of the servants.
He slammed the door so hard she jumped and then she composed herself.
"Hello," she said to the woman.
"My lady." They all choruses as they curtseyed.
"My brother sent you to me." Anna stated as she folded her arms .
There was a knock at the door and it was opened.
A large woman with a full chest who seemed to be in her mid forties stepped in.
"Lady Anna is it?" The woman asked with command.
"Yes." Anna said crossing her brows.
Who was this woman to talk to her in such a manner.
"My name is Belinda. I am the head of the house. I oversee most of the work. Your brother insisted that I see you and introduced you to the palace and everything about it." The woman said.
"I see." Anna said. "And do you know who I am?"
"Yes you are Alpha Xaden’s sister." The woman said.
"Good." Anna said. And she walked back to the picture of her and her mother.
She tapped at the baby in the painting aggressively. "To be more precise I am that baby. Which means I am a daughter of this pack."
"I see.." Belinda said even though it didn’t seem she understood where she was going with this.
"As daughter of this pack and sister of the Alpha of this pack. I would like to be the one managing the castle."
Anna really didn’t care about doing any work.
She preferred not to even do any at all, but she had given her brother the image of her being a very good and hardworking girl.
She needed to keep up the image to him.
No matter what.
"If you don’t know, but where I lived I did a lot of handy work and I am able enough to see the entire doings of the castle." Anna said.
Belinda gave her a boring look. "That must have been lovey can I see your hands?"
Anna frowned. "Why?"
But before Anna could even give her permission to or not, Belinda walked up to her and grabbed her hand.
She started to feel her palms .
"You said you did a lot of handy work in the pack you lived in didn’t you?" Belinda asked her.
"Yes I did." Anna said as she snatched her hand away. "What are you? Some sort of witch?"
"Your hands are too soft for someone who did manual labor." Belinda said. "You don’t even have a single cut on any part of your body."
Anna went red. "It’s private."
Belinda nodded. "I see."
"Anyways." Anna said trying to faun her the topics before she was caught in her lie, even though she doubted Belinda believed a word she said. "I would order you on how I want the castle done. How foods are to be prepared, how the furniture is to be made."
Belinda sighed dryly. "I’m just the Castle keeper. That Job belonged to the late lady Aurora and your brother has given it to someone else."
"Who?" Anna asked shocked .
"Jasmine." Belinda stated matter of fact.
Anna’s face went aflame. "That’s impossible. She is the daughter of a traitor and a murderer."
"That’s funny, considering you were one until a few days ago." Belinda said and the other maids chucked to Anna’s horror. "Forgive me my lady. Rumors tend to fly around her quite fast."
Anna wanted to order a beating!
For all of them!
She wanted them flogged so much that their skin bled and their flesh ripped apart.
She gave a cruel and twisted smile.
"You seem to think that I am tolerant of bad behaviors." Anna asked. "You should ask Jasmine. She will tell you. Or rather, you should see her body. They will tell you what I can do. You do not want to cross me. Get OUT!"
Lady Belinda curtseyed in obedience and respect. "Yes your majesty."
And with that she left the room.
Anna began to pace burning in fury.
She hated that stupid harlot.
And why would her brother assign Jasmine to be the one to oversee the castle.
This was her family’s castle!
It was her right to do with it as she deemed fit!
Jasmine did not belong here and so she had no right absolutely none to take on such a role.
And with that the girls all took to their heels and went out of her room. freёwebnovel.com
