The Alien King's Alluring Obsession

Edna

"Okay, miss Edna." The servant said.

She turned around to leave the moment the last word dropped from her lips.

I didn't move from the position I was in. I waited patiently. I wasn't afraid of the servant misbehaving. Mr Blake's words were enough deterrence.

Deep down, they might despise me but on the surface, they would follow the rules. As long as I don't do something excessive or ask for something impossible, this status quo would be maintained. "What do you want to do with makeup, Edna?" Jade questioned with a suspicious look on her face.

"What I want to do with it is none of your concern. Besides, you have ears. Use them. I said I wanted to beautify myself for Mr Blake. Is that not a reasonable motive?" I scoffed.

"Who do you think you are deceiving? You want to beautify yourself for Mr Blake? Haha, very funny." Jade laughed, "You think we didn't hear the news of your handwork in the brothel? You think we don't know you caused serious injury to guard Orion when he tried to teach you how the things in the bedroom work? You hate intimacy and now, you are trying to tell me you are going to take the initiative to ask for the same intimacy you are avoiding? Girl, stop joking." I raised a brow, "Wow. I didn't know I was some kind of celebrity. I didn't know you have been paying attention to me like a stalker."

"That is not the point. Who would want to stalk you anyway? You better stay in your lane. Don't do anything excessive. Actually, why am I saying all these? Those warnings aren't necessary. I will be there to laugh at the punishment Madam Tayo would mete to you." Jade sneered.

"Are you a mosquito before you took on human form? You nose around too much. If you don't need silence, I do. Keep your mouth shut. I don't have any ulterior motive. I don't know how many times I would have to repeat this for it to sink into the ears of everyone that think otherwise." I spat.

After I said my piece, I didn't pay any attention to Jade anymore. She can yap around if she wanted. It would be none of my concerned from this moment onwards.

Footsteps sounded and the servant that left came back. She had a small bag with her.

"This is the makeup kit, miss Edna. The makeup is waterproof." The servant smiled as she handed the bag to me.

Her smile wasn't warm. It was cold to the core. I didn't mind it though, she did what she was supposed to do, full stop.

The servant walked away from us. She might be returning to the task she was doing before I called her.

I walked to my door. Jade watched me as I left.

"Wait!" A masculine voice called.

I stopped. I didn't know who the voice was referring to between me and Jade.

It might even be somebody else. I turned around to face the source of the voice.

A man was standing behind me and Jade. He looked familiar.

Then, it clicked. His resemblance to Mr Blake was high. He must be related to Mr Blake somehow. My left eyelids twitched. Trouble was coming. I don't know how I knew. I just arrived at that conclusion.

"Are you Edna? Who among you is named Edna?" The man asked.

His face wasn't showing any happiness at all. Still, I can't really deny my name. Jade was beside me. She was all too happy to rat me out.

It was better to do the task of revealing my identity personally.

I said as I stepped forward, "I am Edna. Is there something you need?"

The man nodded, "I need something. Do you know what that is? I need you to leave my father alone. You are the new pendant, right? You prostitutes just don't have any shame. If you guys smell the slightest hints of power and wealth, you would rush towards that person or direction like starved ghosts. So pathetic."

My eyes cooled down.

I had to keep myself from replying rudely.

I exhaled slowly, "Sir, with all due respect, I am not a prostitute or a whore. I would appreciate it if you don't address me like that."

Mr Blake's son laughed, "You are trying to say you are not a prostitute, right? Okay, fine. Let's say I believe you. If you are not a prostitute, what are you? You live in a brothel and you sleep with men if they pay. What exactly are you if you are not a prostitute? I heard my father bought your first night. How would you feel if you lost your leverage in controlling my father in my hands right now?"

Jade snickered at the side.

The man turned to Jade with a glare, "Are you any different? Why are you laughing? You are just a pot calling the kettle black. Hypocrite."

A ball of anger was in my chest. I wanted to teach this stupid guy a lesson so bad. His words about raping me was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Dark thoughts sprouted in the soil of my mind. It was obvious that Mr Blake spoiled his son.

Mr Blake's son didn't have any respect and a can't control the dumpster he calls a mouth.

'Mr Blake was my ticket out of here. I must not do anything out of line. I must not follow the thoughts in my heart.' I kept repeating to myself.

I was very close to losing my cool.

I stared at Mr Blake's son, "Sir, do you know what would happen if you attempted to take the prize Mr Blake fought so hard to get?"Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Stop trying to be intimidating, it is not working. You think the little money my father spent in the brothel is all he has? Keep dreaming! He can buy your first time 50 million times over. I don't even need to know the exact amount he paid to make that estimation. Your words can't scare me. Find something else to focus on." Mr Blake's son said as he walked closer to me.
