*MEMORIES-PART 8*

"I guess if you're a demon you'll have no problem with showing me your fangs now would you?."

Lisa froze. Her mind seemed to completely shut down.

Her mother must have forgotten that part about fangs because she had no fangs! How would she get out of this one now?.

"M-my fangs are quite shy." She blabbed and Lucas lifted a brow.

"You're fangs are shy?." He asked in disbelief. This maid was getting stranger and stranger by the second.

"Yes they are. While I'm brave, my fangs are shy, it's the way I was born." She put up a sad expression and the look on Lucas's face told her that he wasn't buying her explanation one bit.

She had to look for a way to change the topic.

"By the way, do you bring just any maid to your room?." She moved from her position and started walking around his room, acting as though she was inspecting it.

"Why do you say that?." He asked, his tone with a hint of laughter.

"You see, you higher-ups won't know this but word travels alot among we maids very fast." She reduced her voice to a whisper as if telling him a secret and he nodded in fake interest.

"Is that so?."

"Yes! Before you know it they will be saying that the prince has a mistress! And the mistress is a small innocent maid that just went to his room once!." She put her hand on her chest faking surprise.

"My, my. And who is that maid?." A small smile was on his face as he watched the brave maid tip toe closer to him and whisper.

"Who knows." She moved back immediately after saying that but that distance was enough for him to spot her swollen cheek and split lips.

Lisa felt like she had achieved alot just by seeing his smile again.

She noticed him stand up and approach her and she frowned in confusion. He brought forward his hand and touched her cheeks making Lisa flinch from the pain that shot through her body from just that single touch.

"Who hurt you?."

Lisa's body instantly stilled as she inhaled his masculine scent.

He was close.

Too close.

"I-i had a little womens quarrel." She stuttered. Her face turning to a bright shade of red as Lucas had not yet removed his hand from her cheek.

"Don't you dare lie to me." He scolded and Lisa blinked at him.

"I can tolerate your other lies but you will speak the truth about this now." He ordered and Lisa felt her heart explode.

So he knew she was lying yet he said nothing about it.

He knew she wasn't a demon but how?.

"Some women attacked me." She breathed and with only her saying that, Lucas seemed to have guessed the woman perfectly.

"Brenda."

"It wasn't her fault. I had gotten her brother killed because I didn't want him to take my blood and for that I would take full responsibility." She lowered her eyes in remorse.

She knew Lucas. When he got angry he could do things without giving it a second thought.

"Whether or not she gets punished will be up to me to decide as I had called you here to also discuss your punishment." He revealed and Lisa pushed his hand away from her cheek, panick quickly replacing her features.

"I didn't do anything wrong."

"I didn't say you did anything wrong yet." He responded back and she bit her lip.

This was one thing that scared her most about Lucas. His ability to twist words.

"You lied to me about your race." He started.

"How are you so sure I lied?." She glared at him while maintaining a good distance away from him.

"I'm sure you're fangs being shy is enough proof." He said in a mocking tone and Lisa pursed her lips.

"The second reason why you are receiving a punishment is disrespect to a higher-up. And by higher-up I mean Richard."

"You mean that prick? It was all his fault!." Lisa defended herself but Lucas only continued.

"And the last reason is because of your rude behaviour. Are you sure you're just a maid because you are too bold to be one." His intelligent eyes observed her and she retorted

"And you are too cocky to be a new crown prince." She eyed him and he chuckled, leaving the room before returning back with an ice pack.

"Take this and hold it against the wound if not it might leave a scar." He handed her the Ice pack and she muttered a thank you as she placed it on her cheek, flinching from the pain.

"Painful huh?." He questioned and she nodded.

"Next time you will know when to talk and when to keep quiet bold maid." He gave her a knowing look and she protested.

"It's my mouth so I will speak as I wish."

"Your mouth will get you in trouble one day." He sighed and went to seat back on the couch as he watched her keep switching the hand she was using to hold the ice pack.

Was it that cold?

"Stop doing that it won't work that way." He warned her but she kept on switching the hand and finally he stood up and held the Ice pack, touching her hand while doing so.

"This is how you do it." He stared into her dark eyes that seemed slightly alarmed.

Lisa was shocked.

Here Lucas was holding her hand just to make sure that she was doing this well and it scared her her to no end.

"Since you've planned to make me stand with you while I tell you your punishment then I might as well do that." He continued looking into her eyes and Lisa's face flustered.

"I was planning on a more harsh punishment but I have something way better in mind." His eyes sparkled in a strange way and Lisa felt her heart leap out of it position.

It was about time she taught this heart of hers some serious manners.

"You are going to be my personal maid "
