Butch and Eve arrived at the castle, they got down from the carriage and entered into the castle. Ellie who has never been to the castle before was surprised at the way the building walls were decorated with marbles. Despite how surprised she was, she managed to keep it to herself to avoid disgracing herself. They walked forward and entered the building when suddenly she heard a woman called out to Butch, she was walking down the stairs.
"Butch, what are you doing here? We're not expecting to see you today? Have you brought a new one?" The head maid asked, noticing a girl behind him."Yes, her name is Eve. She's from Mr Travis." Butch said with a smile before he continued. "He wants her to be one of the king's maid." Butch whispered, he doesn't want other people or the maids to hear him.King's maid?! Does he think it's easy to be the king's maid? The head maid asked. "And he wants me to take this one as the king's maid, take a look at her dressing." The head maid said, looking at Eve from head to toe."Don't look at that.Just do what Mr Travis wants. She probably needs the money for her family." Butch explained. And also, she's a weird one so her family must have sent her here because they were probably fed up" Butch said, looking at Eve before whispering to the head maid.Eve just stood behind Butch silently, watching the both of them. She felt like snapping their head off, but because of what she came there to do she just had to keep mute."What? And you, are you not from this town, how can you not know how to dress to the castle or you're not just wise?" The woman asked in fury."Isn't it rude to talk about someone badly behind their back, you could have just faced me directly." She said moving closer to the woman and Butch. "And also I'm much more wiser than you could ever imagined." Eve said sneering at the woman."What did you just say? Are you trying to say that I'm foolish?" The woman asked in anger."I never said anything like that, that's just your own thinking." Eve replied raising her two palms up. Before the woman could say any other things, Butch jumped into the matter before they tear each other apart."Can you just forgive her, she doesn't mean what she's saying. Just think about Mr Travis and the fact that, more maids are needed in the castle." Butch said, pleading with the woman."I don't think I want someone like her." The head maid said rejecting Eve."Please, just forgive her." Butch pleaded."Fine. But we'll train her first for a few days before she starts." The head maid said."Of course, I guess my work is done here then." Butch said, moving forward to take his leave, before he turns back and walk to the woman. "And also, remember she's a weirdo." He whispered before leaving.The woman listened to Butch's whisper before he left. She wondered why he said that but decided to pay no attention to him, she turned and said to Eve. "Follow me."Eve didn't say a word but only followed the head maid. They walked for some time while Eve used the opportunity to look around even though it wasn't enough. They finally got to a door, the woman pulled the door opened and said."Stay here, I'll be right back." The woman said leaving her all alone.After some time, the head maid came back with a cloth and some maids that followed her."Take, wear this." The woman said giving her a maid's cloth. She took it and look at it with disdain. The cloth look so ugly, definitely not her style. She has gotten use to wearing tight fitted cloth and pant, so when the woman brought the maid's gown, she felt like puking."This is what I'm going to be wearing?" She asked, raising her head up to the head maid."What? Is there something wrong with it?" The woman asked, instead of answering her."Not really." She said. Just calm down Eve, you only have to wear it till you finish your mission. It won't take long, just be calm. This is all for my parents. She said to herself, inhaling a deep breath."At least, it's better than those terrible fitted clothes you're putting on." The woman said.Scoffs. "If these are better than what I'm putting on, I'll rather move around naked." She said, with no emotion written on her. she kept examining the maid's clothes.The other maids in the room chuckled over her words but kept quiet when the head maid glared at them.You know what? I'm still wondering if you really want this job. Are any of your family in need of money, that they had to ask someone as rude as you to be a maid. I'm considering you here only because of Mr Travis, if not I would have thrown you out of here the moment you came. The woman said in anger."Come out after wearing the clothes, you need to learn some rules of the castle." The woman said, before stepping out."She's going to make me lose my mind." The head maid said to herself before going out.Eve only stared at her till she left the room. She wanted to just throw away the clothes, but she doesn't have a choice. She have to do whatever they want of her till she finished what she came there for."This is for you Mom and Dad." She said after wearing the clothes.After wearing the clothes, she stepped out to see the maids at the entrance."Here I was thinking it will take you much longer to change your clothes." The woman said."Let's go, you will have to learn all the rules of being a maid." The woman continued."Follow me, we don't have all day."The woman said, seeing that she wouldn't budge."Here in the palace, you have to obey some rules. I guess when it comes to you, you'll have to obey a lot of rules." The woman said, walking through a corridor."Let me start by saying, always obey whatever the higher-ups in the palace tells you to do, and that also include me." Said the woman, stopping a little to intimidate the girl with her eyes. The head maid knew that the girl was a tough one, but she didn't have any choice than to accept her, moreover she won't last in the castle, she's definitely going to do something wrong."And also try to give a little smile while working, your face looks too serious." The woman said walking forward again.Don't talk when you're not asked to talk, and I think you can follow that. When you're asked a question, give a polite answer and not an offensive one. The woman said, looking back at her.They finally got to a building, where the woman pushed the door open. "This is the maid's quarters, it's where all the maids of the higher-ups in the pa
"Your highness your bath is ready." A maid said to the man who was on the bed with his eyes closed. Anyone who sees him right then will think that he was still sleeping but his maids knew better.Without saying a word, he got up and went to the bathroom to have his bath. The maids were already waiting for him in his bathroom for him to have his bath.Before he removed his robe, he took a thermometer and put it into the bathtub to test out the water."Who prepared this water? He asked, but the maids didn't reply him, they only shiver in fear. I asked you a simple question?" He asked raising his voice this time."It wa.. was me your highness." A maid replied him. She bowed her head and kept shivering in fear.Walking close to the maid, he asked. "Who sent you? Huh?" I'm asking you a question. He said yelling at her."No one your highness. Please forgive me." The maid cried, kneeling down to beg him.Then tell me exactly why you're trying to kill me. I told you all that my bathing water
In a cool garden filled with flowers, some trees and birds flying around. A man could be seen with brushes and paint, his clothes covered in paint and some sheets of paper were lying on the floor. He was painting the picture of a bird sitting on the tree. Shortly, a man and a woman entered the garden with some maids behind them."I told you, this is exactly where we're going to find him." King Henry said looking at the man who was painting.He didn't have to look behind him to know that it was his parents. "Why are you looking for me dear parent?" He asked facing and smiling at them.What? How can you ask us such question? "You're supposed to be having your archery practice right now but you're right here painting." The queen said raising her voice at him."Calm down mother. I can always do that later you know. Don't get yourself so worked up." He held his mother hands and smiled."Later? That's what you keeping saying. You're so far behind in archery and swordsmanship. Look at your f
In Ms Jane's room."Where do you want to see a new maid before tomorrow?" Asked Helen, sitting on the woman's bed."I don't even know. Young master is going to be so furious, he should really stop dismissing his maids." The head maid replied sitting on her bed.After a few minutes of silence. Helen looked at the woman and said. "I think you should send that new girl to him tomorrow." "No. Mr Travis insisted that we make her the king's maid, if he finds out we didn't do what he asked, he's not going to like it." The woman said, shaking her head in disagreement."I know he's going to get angry, but he won't find out about it. I'm sure that the prince will dismiss her even on a spot, you can make her the king's maid after that." Helen explained. "And also, when did you start caring about what Mr Travis will do?" Helen asked, feeling confused about the fact the woman is acting scared. "You're the head maid, and you have every right to do anything to the maids.""What? I'm not worried abo
"You mean that you want her as your maid?" The woman asked in shock."Yes, is there anything wrong with that?" He asked."No your highness, there's nothing wrong, you can have her as your maid. I will get going now." The woman said, bowing her head before she went out."What just happened? How can this be possible?" Eve thought getting surprised at what just happened.My bath must have gotten destroyed all because of you, but here's a warning in case of next time. I don't joke with my bath, you can ask them. He said turning towards Eve who was only staring at him.Eric went into the bathroom and have his bath, while the maids stood behind the door. He has specifically told them that he would do the bathing himself. "How can you do such a thing Eve." Liz whispered. But Eve didn't answer, she kept looking forward, into the empty space, she was so pissed at the head maid.It's all because of that old woman, I will surely make her pay. But first, I need to get out of this mess as soon as
"Oh my! I must have forgotten. How could I do such to the head maid." She said smiling sacarstically at the woman who was still staring at her in surprise."It looks like Mr Travis didn't talk to you well the last time. I guess he has to negotiate better when he comes to meet you again." She said before leaving the woman alone.The woman watched her leave and trembled in silence.Flashback.Mr Travis? What are you doing here in the maid's quarters? Ms Jane asked smiling at the man."Pardon me Ms Jane, I've come to see you." The man said."See me? What have you come to see me for?" Jane asked.The man sighed before talking."I have this girl of mine, who has been looking for a job in the castle so that she can support her family. What I want from you is just to make her a king's maid." The man said whispering to the woman."King's maid? That's not possible Mr Travis. There's no way a girl can just come from no where and decides to be the king's maid. The highest thing she can get is t
"That's right, special maid. As my special maid, you have to help with my bath every morning, the other maids can take care of the breakfast. you have to also follow me every where I go, and do whatever I asked of you." He said moving closer to Eve. Are you willing to do that for a common dream? He asked. She kept quiet and looked at him, she thought. "I guess this is what I can do in the main time, I will have to find a way to get to the king, but first I will need to accept his terms. I must do this on time to get revenge for my parents. So, Eve do this before uncle finds out.""I accept your terms your highness, I will be your special maid for two months, and after that you'll let me be the king's maid." She said with confidence. "Very well then." He said smiling at her. "You only take care of my breakfast from now on. my special maid will take care of the rest." He said talking to the maids without taking his eyes off Eve."Yes your highness." They said in unison before bowing t
In the maid's quarters."Care to explain what happened this morning?" Ivy asked, raising her voice at Eve. Ivy was expecting her to at least answer her question, but eve did not even bother looking towards her side, she was just lying on the bed with her eyes closed."Calm down ivy, you are causing a big scene." Liz held her hand and drag her backwards but it got ivy even more angry."Is there any reason why you don't want to be the Prince's maid?" Liz, turned towards Eve and asked softly. But before Eve could say anything, ivy said. "Are you kidding me, how can you ask her such question? Can't you see this was all her plan to become the Prince's special maid." She shouted at Liz."Ivy, just stop." Eva said, trying to stop her because all other maids were already staring at them and whispering things to themselves. "Don't you dare tell me to stop." Ivy said raising her voice again. They kept arguing with each other but Eve just sat down on her bed and watch them argue, she really doe
