Chapter 9
Asthrid just let out a sigh and suddenly put her hand on my shoulder, I thought I was done for at that point, since I couldn’t fight or talk back to her, I’d exactly have no choice but to just accept my fate right there and there.
“I’m not mad, see? I am just stressed out about this whole Annual pack gathering dance okay? I can’t have any compromises right now, and I know that I could count on you so please, can you do that? Can I count on you?” She said to me in her nicest and kindest voice yet, this was a rare sight, I believe that no one has ever saw Ms. Asthrid reacts like this.
I wasn’t sure enough if she was faking this or not, her reason might just be because she doesn’t want anything to grow on her face. Asthrid had never ever been like this to me, when we are talking, she would just throw things at me and called me names. “Are you sure Ms. Asthrid?” I said what I needed to say, I wanted to know if she was faking it or not.
She just looked at me for a couple of seconds and looked happy. “Krisna?”
At this point I am not sure if I will be imprisoned, or just yelled at. “Yes Ms. Asthrid?” I asked her in my gentle and soft toned voice.
She is just looking at me with her creepy smile, then, she just burst. I knew that she was just faking it, but I wanted to know how long she would be able to put up with it. “Do not ever question me! Just do what I tell you to do, nothing else, no nonsense questions, no stupidity! Move like a robot for all I care, just do not mess this up for me. If something grows on my face, I’ll make sure to take it out on you.” She looked crazy for a moment. I couldn’t say a thing since I was shocked about her reaction, I wasn’t expecting her to react like that even if I knew that she was just faking her act of kindness towards me.
Asthrid then stormed off to the car, I don’t know what I should do at the moment since she didn’t tell me any orders. “Krisna! Come here! What are you standing there for?!” Asthrid suddenly got more furious than earlier, she just couldn’t make herself stop at the moment.
“Okay… Wait!” I yelled so she would hear me.
I ran as fast as I could to catch up, I don’t know how she got to the car after just literally walking out of her door.
When I got there, she looked at me in my eyes with a deadly glare, it was scary at first glance. She then pointed at the entrance of the mansion, when I turned around, I saw a huge pile of luggage, it was almost as big as the second floor itself. “All of that?” I hesitated to ask Asthrid, I was doubting that I would be able to move all of that.
“What do you think? Am I going to move that all by myself? No? Because I am the daughter of the Alpha family, and you are just a lowly maid, made to serve under me, and nothing else.” She said to me without any hesitation at all, I wasn’t sure if I would take that insult and shove it down my throat, but I knew that if I wanted to stand up to her now, my chances of escaping from the pack would be zero.
“Yes… I’ll do it right now.” I reluctantly agreed to what she was trying to make me do since I can’t exactly say no to her either.
“Oh and umm… put them in the other car please, that’s where you’ll be riding as well.” She is still trying to make my life as hard as she possibly can just for her amusement, but I wasn’t gonna let her win, I know that I will prevail.
And just so, I got started working on fitting all of her luggage inside the other car, at first, it was quite easy since there was still a lot of space available inside, the trunk of the car was easily filled after just four luggage’s, I was already exhausted, but I had to go on. “Asthrid! What is taking you so long? It’s been ten minutes!”
This woman thinks that I move like thunder, I probably could, but I won’t. “Just a couple of more minutes Ms. Asthrid!” I yelled so she would hear me as clear as a day.
She looked at me and rolled her eyes as she was rolling up her window. I still had a problem, I needed to fit everything inside the car.
“Oh and one more thing, you should be able to get the luggages out later.” I was really put up against an impossible task, I wasn’t sure if I would be able to even put everything inside, let alone take everything out later.
Asthrid was really pushing me to the limit, but I wasn’t going to give up, I still have a goal of escaping. After almost an hour of figuring out how I would be able to put everything inside. She then got out of her car and started approaching, she looked furious. “What is taking you so long?! Do you want me to be late? If not, then you better be finished in ten minutes, or you’ll be facing something worse than my punishment.”
She was threatening me, of course, I couldn’t talk back. So I just rushed everything and I was able to put everything inside before she could even yell at me again.
