Chapter 33: Devil II

   Vanessa remain still, all her thinking gone, all she could think about is who and who will attend her funeral. She has just disobeyed him and now, she was about to receive another punishment. Her face dropped in horror as she was waiting for the unimaginable to happen.

  "Why do I always get in so much trouble, it sickens and annoys me " Vanessa " he finally said.

   " lift your head " doing as he said I watch him tilt his head to his left,

   " get back to work!" The moment he growls everybody turns their gaze away and continues their work. 

l

  " master?" I shuttered in fear.

       " shh".

   "he isn't smiling or frowning, how do I get to know what is in that thick head of his, I thought he was going out so why did he turn back "

   "I  will continue this little chat later, I have something better to take care of " he turns around before mumbling what he wishes to say;

  " After cleaning my room I want you to kneel and wait till I return, if you stand, I will know ".

   Watching him leave I literally fall down

   " Are you okay Vanessa " Rose run to my side and I shake my head " don't worry, the punishment won't be harsh " 

" I didn't do anything wrong right " asking rose I look around, all the maids minding their business

   " maybe I should have minded my business and shut up, look at where it has gotten me, Rose, am about to be killed " 

  " you won't be killed" Rose mutter bending to my level " you will just bleed a little, that's all, nothing like being killed" 

  " I might bleed to death " 

  " I feel bad for you but I have to get back to work " nodding my head she exhale;

" don't think it too much, Alexander won't do you anything ".

" Seriously, I just saw what he did to that lady ".

 " you're special " furrowing my brows Rose chuckled;

   " look am trying to calm your mind here, get back to work before he returns or the punishment will double ".

  " Alright ".

  Rose helped me up and in no time am done with the garden, I pick up the necessary item then move to the elevator, pick the floor of his room then am in, first I clean his bathroom, balcony and now am in the bed, arranging it slowly.

 "It's so huge." 

  Moving to the closet I stare at all his black T-shirts, no other color but black " blue?" My gaze land on a blue one, at the very end, pulling it out I stare at it before inhaling the scent, it's a sweater though, a big one. 

  Shaking my head I drop it down gently, sweep up the bedroom, clean it, move downstairs to drop the equipment I took, join in eating the lunch which I cried throughout, preparing myself for what's to come.

 Alexander doesn't like tears so I plan on doing that in advance " you won't die, Vanessa, I have passed through the pain, to him, he is correcting you, changing you to someone that respects the master " one of the maid's mumbles.

  " I think he is a dominant" Rose whisper

  " He loves women respecting him, like them submissive ".

  " I have no idea what you all are blabbering about, am literally about to face death " standing up I clean my lips. 

    " I might as well go upstairs and kneel awaiting him ".

  " Be strong!" They all mumble and I smile.

  " thanks " moving back to his room I lose my hair from the ponytail and stare at the mirror in his room, this might be my last reflection sighting " you look beautiful " smiling I stare at the necklace he gave and try taking it off but it won't move, the joining is just so strong.

 "Why did he give me this?

  He said I look good in it, it suits me. 

Kneeling I exhale, remaining still and having no idea when I fall asleep, I might have passed out for a long time because when I get up, the sun is already going to sleep, Alexander is still not back and my date with Prince George is drawing close.

  I don't want to break my promise of going out with him! 

  The sound of Alexander's carriage alert me as I kneel properly, waiting and praying that he forgives me, I can't let him beat me up, I will die from it… The door opens revealing him with a bloodstain all over his body, hair, face.

 " you're still here?" He furrows his brows.

  Saying nothing I watch him take off his clothes right in front of my very eyes, not even ashamed of it, I lower my head not daring to look up at his nakedness, he moves to the bathroom.

  His bath was long and exhausting for me who wish to get out of here soon.  

    Alexander put on his black shorts, leaving his chest bare as he sit on the bed and stare at this little girl that seem to have a lot to say to him.

  " lift your head " she did just that, from the look of things she has been crying, her eyes red.

   " you cried?"

   " yes " 

   " I told you never to cry again " frowning I purred " didn't I?" 

 " you did but it just came, I can't stop it" 

  " what do you have to say to yourself concerning what happened earlier," she said nothing, just keep looking at me

 " I asked you a question, Vanessa "  

" I feel bad " she force the words out of her mouth and that gain a half-smile from me, oh I didn't plan on punishing her, I didn't even hear what she said earlier, I just turn around to tell lady Penelope about my whereabouts but then I saw her frowning and blabbering words I couldn't hear, I thought someone made her angry but when I asked who she was talking about, she mentioned me.

 " what exactly did you say, Vanessa " 

 " I…I…I can't remember " she bites her lower lip and I chuckle before standing.

" you speak badly of me and now lying? What do you propose I do to you " 

  " don't kill me?"

  " silly girl" smiling I move to the balcony, sit on the chair then stare at her

  " come here " I watch her stand to her feet and move in my direction.

  " I will not kill you, just a little punishment and I will only stop when you repeat what you said earlier " tapping my lap I watch her;

  " lay across them"

  " What?? "  

  "But master am just your mai.."

  " talking when I didn't permit you, another bad girl attitude, your punishment are lining up " mumbling I frown

  " am going to Punish you Vanessa and I don't need all these slow responses.

  "Lay on my lap now!" 

 She tucks her hair behind her ear before moving close then laying on my lap, she has a nice backside " you are heavenly gifted Vanessa. Your arse is beautiful and soft " I have never been a shy person, I watch her hide her face " has anybody ever done this to you before"

  " no master "

Giving her the first strike of my slap she yells.

  " I told you earlier, it will hurt " giving her another I watch her cry but I didn't stop. 

" will you tell me all I need to know now?" 

 " I don't remember the…" Before she could complete her sentence I slap her once again, am certainly getting a little pleasure from seeing her arse shake but she, on the other hand, is feeling pain.

" ouch!!" she cry, I could feel her tears drop on my feet " please stop, it hurts!"  

          Vanessa cry and beg but he wasn't taking it, he need me to repeat what I said earlier and I don't want to but my arse is beginning to burn.

  " I will say it" the moment I screamed, he stopped. Then rub my arse gently, am glad he didn't lift my skirt up or anything like that.

  " start talking " 

  " I can't believe he treats humans like this and most importantly a woman, someone needs to talk some sense into him, he can't behave like he owns everyone, who does he think he is " saying exactly what I said earlier I get off his lap and stare at his face.

He is smiling. 

   "Why is he smiling." 

   " come " standing up I move close to him." sit on my lap " my eyes widen when he said that, I didn't move and when I notice a frown creeping into his face I quickly do as he said. 

I do not want another round of punishment.

  He cares my face gently

  " that's a good girl Vanessa, I do not like it when you lie or disobey me" his fingers move to my lips, rubbing them slowly;

  " I want you to always be submissive to me, only me, no lies, don't hide things from me…is that clear " I nod my head but am slightly confused.

 What rose said earlier came back to me, he might be dominant and likes his women submissive.

" I thought am just your maid " the words came out before I could stop myself, he hate when you talk if he didn't permit it.

 " you are" he leans close then whisper;

  " but a special one, one I will take good care of " our face is an inch apart.

  " is time for you to go to your quarters Vanessa, it's getting late " 

  I thought he was going to kiss me but the atmosphere around him change so fast, he stand to his feet.

  He is so strange, nobody can understand him, what did he mean by me being submissive to him, not telling him lies, not hiding things from him, is it that he likes me?

  He hit the woman he likes the way he did to me, it still hurt but at least he didn't beat me up like the last one. 

  " Vanessa, you can go now" he glances back with furrowed eyebrows.

  " of course" checking the time I turn around to pick up my bag, his voice behind me startled me, how did he move that fast.

 " I forgot to ask " he turn me around to face him then touch my arse, my eyes widen from shock but he doesn't look surprised at all like he is checking to see if am alright

  " does it hurt?"

  I was about saying no so that he can let go but he hates lies.

  " yes master" he look down at me, he said nothing, more like studying my face and to see if I lied.

  " okay" that's all he said before moving away, no sorry, just okay, that was all he could say to me…storming out of his room I exhale, tired of him and seeing his face.

 I hate that man.
