ANNA’S POV
I was lying on my bed, bored to death.
Finally, Jasmine was out of the house.
That filthy whore.
But now she lives in the royal pack.
I had no idea what deal Xaden had made to keep her there, but I really hoped that when Xaden finally married Princess Auburn, she would be far away.
The servants massaging my feet and trimming my toenails chipped my toenails.
"Ouch!" I hissed as I kicked her in the face.
The ugly peasant gasped and covered her face.
"I’m sorry, my lady." She apologized quickly.
I looked down at my toe and saw it was bleeding.
"How stupid of you!" I hissed cruelly.
I picked up my hand fan and gave her a dirt slap with it.
She turned her cheek to the other side.
I was breathing so heaving out of spite and anger.
I knew she had done it to me on purpose.
By the time she rose, her face and her nose were bleeding.
I took little satisfaction in that.
Blood for blood.
"Next time, be careful with that, or you will be punished with a terrific beating," I warned her.
She had tears in her eyes, which only made me more disgusted.
"Yes, your majesty." I rolled my eyes and lay back down on the bed.
The girl continued to work on my nails as I heard her sniff.
"You had better not be crying," I warned her. "Or I’ll give you something to cry about!"
She finally stopped sniffing.
I heard a knock at my door.
One of the servant girls went to open it.
It was Lisa.
"Anna," She nodded at me
I rolled my eyes in disgust.
What did she want?
I hadn’t seen her since I had returned.
"Anna, Anna, Anna." She said with a solidified smile. "It’s so good to see you."
I glared at her.
"You don’t have any right to call me by my name." I hissed.
"Oh, come on now, Anna." She said, as she sat on the chair beside my dressing mirror without permission, flipping her single blonde braid. "We’re already past that. You and I have too good a history to be referring to each other formally."
I could feel my face flushing up.
I knew what she was insinuating.
It was a vague warning.
"Leave!" I snapped at the servants.
They looked relieved.
They were gone in a matter of seconds.
As soon as I heard the door shut, I turned to Lisa.
"How dare you think you can talk to me that way?" I demanded, enraged.
She giggled and looked back at me before turning to face the mirror.
