Ungreatful

Watching Olivia eyeing me suspiciously could have been one of my top 10 funniest things I had seen since I cam to this planet, however, if I were to say that it would be a lie. While yes, I didn't say it was one of the top 10 finniest things I saw in all my lives, I still think this is nothing compared to the idiocy of people within this planet.

While a portion of this planet is suffering from poverty, another portion has so much money that the only thing they had to do from then on is play the political warfare game, a bit like my mother who wants to use her own daughter as a political tool for her and her family! And we don't even have that much money! The last portion of the planet are usually just patriciate maniacs who "love" their empire However, one of the most fun things I like to watch on this planet, that I still don't know the name of, instead of the political debates and choices people made back on earth is look of bewilderment when anyone meets me. It's like they get a reality check whenever they see me, a check where they might or might not rethink their entire life while also having an identity crisis, but that doesn't matter.

The current situation would have been a hell of a lot more funny though if I didn't actively have to think of an answer. I couldn't call Olivia back because the contract said nothing "sexual", and if a women standing in front of me naked without consent wasn't sexual, I don't know what would be.

'It's fine. I'll tell you later. Just get changed and then we can go. I need to explain to my dad who the hell you are first' I told her through our mind link

'NO! Please... What are you and what do you want with me. Why is your voice that of a man... Did you lie to me?' She asked

'First of all, you were my enemy and your head would be rolling on the floor or buried with your friends if I didn't have mercy on you. I have no obligation to answer any of your questions, so shut the-... get a move on.' Not finding enough strength to argue right then and there, I chose to let it slide and make her get a move on.

'...' Not knowing how to reply to my sudden outburst, she chose to stay quite, but at the back of her mind, a single word was constantly repeating itself.

'Atlas'

Seeing that she had closed the mind link, I did too and just waited for her to finish changing before walking out and walking to my brothers and driver. After a few minutes, she walks out while straightening her bangs while putting her waist long hair back into a ponytail.

"I'm ready" She said while straightening her back.

'I thought people in the army had to kneel down or some sh*t in the army... Maybe she isn't from the army?' I thought to myself while looking her up and down

"please don't look at me like that. It makes me feel uncomfortable." She asked politely

"You didn't have a problem before" I asked with a raised eyebrow

Activating her mind link, she replied 'well before, I thought you were another little girl. I thought you were just admiring or appreciating how good my outfit and assets looked in combination with each other, or the effort I had made in finding the correct combo. I thought that you might even be looking at me in envy haha... But now I feel like a piece of meat in the butchers being assessed of it's quality by a random sketchy costumer that I do not no nor do I trust.'

Hearing her explanation, I couldn't help but nod a little in guilt for making her feel so uncomfortable with a single look of mine. To be honest, while I hadn't interacted with many in this world, from the few that I have interacted with, I had realised that people's behaviours were different towards me. This was the moment where I finally realised the difference between Atlas and Pandora.

While one will be consistently avoided, the other will be consistently heard. While in my last world I could ay anything and no one would bat an eye, here every one listens to every single word that comes out my mouth. It is as if I had gotten back the minute amount of respect that everyone in this world deserves, which then held me accountable for every single movement I make.

'I'm sorry' I spoke through them mind link gently while speeding up my steps towards where my brothers were.

Hearing my words through the mind link, Olivia froze for a second and looked at my back before thinking 's-he... he apologized? No.. She apologized? Or maybe I should say 'it' because that is the only word that rings a bell right now. But really, I've never heard a man actually apologize for looking at me like that'

Images of noble men being too prideful or lustful to look away from her body flashed within her eyes, sending a shiver down her spine, but at the same time, through her anger, sorrow, grief and initial fears, a small crack of warmth spread from within her hear, calming her down to a certain extent while also allowing her to see the golden haired girl, boy or maybe even demon in front of her in a new light.

...

Finally stepping into the light that was outside the forest and onto the cliff top, I looked towards both of my brothers and the driver. My brothers had already woken up but clearly not too long ago since they were still rubbing their eyes trying to get used to the light hitting their eyes.

"Yo, you too!" I said while waving at them.

I saw Zack kiss his teeth while Zarch simply looked a little annoyed hearing my voice.

'They don't seem to like you very much' Olivia commented through our mind link

'Yeah, I can tell' I remarked with a small chuckle.

"Stop being grumpy old men already an say hello to the person who saved your a*ses! ME! I saved your a*ses. Anyway, this is Olivia Raven, she didn't have a proper last name so I just gave her ours. She will be a maid in our house and is gonna help mom and granny take care of the baby coming in a month or two." I informed.

"Month?" They both asked together.

'Damn these kids! They don't have an ounce of memory within them' I thought before being hit by a realisation while looking at their faces of confusion.

"Oh, I mean in half a season or maybe a little less."

As soon as I spoke those words, they had their faces return to normal, and by normal, I meant faces of contempt.

"Oi Pandora! Where is our loot? I'm sure will killed that bastard who tried to attack us! Don't tell me you took it! I'M TELLING DAD" Zack started speaking like a machine gun that only spewed faeces.

"Goddamnit shut the f*ck up already. Why didn't you stay asleep for a little longer at least 'till dad comes." I complained while walking the other direction towards a larger rock that I could sit on.

"Language young lady" I heard a voice speak behind me with a small *thud*

"oh, hey dad" I greeted nonchalantly without looking back.

"DAD! PANDORA STOLE OUR LOOT! THIS ONE BAS- I MEAN BAD GUY ATTACKED US AND WE KILLED HIM, BUT PANDORA STOLE IT!" Zack pleaded

"bad guy? Wait you killed someone!? Are you both okay? Did you get hurt? Are you scared?" the startled father kneeled in front of both of them to get down to their height.

"Yeah, it was no big deal" Zarch said with a shrug.

"No big deal? NO BIG DEAL?! That is another life, a human, that will never see the light of day again, that will never see their parents again, that will never see their family again. When you kill someone you don't just take one life away, but you potentially take and ruin dozens!" my father lectured with an enraged expression.

"But Pandora took to loot!" Zack tried to argue before getting snapped at

"Loot?! You three want to loot bodies now?! DEAD BODIES!" My father roared while glaring at me with both anger and disappointment creasing his forehead.

"First of all, no I didn't take anything. I buried them with what they had, and if you wanna check, go disturb that dead man in his rest instead of disturbing my conscience with your nagging" I snapped back with everything I had on my mind due to being annoyed with everything that had happened today.

"You don't talk to me like that young lady!" My father warned, which I only stayed silent to while sitting on a large rock and gesturing to Olivia to sit with me.

"And who's this?" My father pointed at the gorgeous women walking towards me with obedience.

"Dad! Pandora enslaved her and gave her our family name without your consent. Can you believe it? She thinks she can do anything with OUR family name. She is giving our name away like it's some kind of unwanted gift!" Zack sneered

"I agree with Zack. She is not being grateful nor does she know the power behind our family name. She is lucky that she had been born within this family, and now she is giving the family name away like it's nothing" Zarch complained in a slightly monotone, much more composed tone of voice.

"..." My father looked at me for a second before narrowing his eyes further, as if he was looking at something behind me or in me rather than actually looking at me.
