Chapter 30 : No One Else but Me
The trio of maids tittered around me like little songbirds. They were used to my presence now, especially since we spent nearly four days at Aeris’s castle now. One of them was undoing the laces on my dress while the others tidied up my room. A lunch tray sat on the edge of my bed as I kept my hands on the desk by the windows, guarding the stolen treasures that I’d hidden in the drawer before the maids came in.
I played the role of docile, submissive, high-bred female as the maids continued their work. They gossiped as if I wasn’t standing there listening to their every word.
