Chapter 20 Gone Bad?
Mira walked to the window and looked over the horizon, wondering how Alpha Gideon and his brothers are faring right now in the war. Maybe they don’t have time for their phones because they need to focus on winning the war.
Later, after Luna Rosie returns to the room she will ask to use her phone so they can get some news about their husband.
A few minutes later, Luna Rosie returned to the room holding a tray laden with delicious food. She placed the tray on the table and sat on a chair, ready to eat.
“Whoa so many dishes!" Mira commented, amused.
“I’m starving. The food in the servant's quarters doesn't taste good. If you want some food, go to the kitchen and get it yourself!” Luna Rosie said and began eating ravenously.
“If the Luna Queen saw me getting food from the kitchen she would wonder why I personally went there myself. Shall I tell her that my personal assistant is a lazy pig?” Mira joked.
Luna Rosie glared at Mira. “Shut up! Don't open your mouth while I'm eating!” She scolded her.
“OK, no problem. Enjoy your food. Eat slowly or you might choke on the food,” Mira advised her.
Luna Rosie continues eating, ignoring Mira completely.
Mira shifted her attention outside the window, scanning the horizon, wondering if Sebastian was near the mansion right now. Would he be able to come if she called him right now?
Maybe not anymore because he was annoyed that she wouldn't agree to leave Luna Rosie’s body. She is on her own now.
“Mira, I’m done eating. Put the dirty dishes away and bring them to the kitchen,” Luna Rosie orders cheekily.
Mira went to the table and arranged the dirty dishes back on a tray. She said, “That’s all I can do for you. You have to bring the tray into the kitchen yourself,” she replied calmly.
Luna Rosie barked. "Why do you refuse to bring the tray to the kitchen? Between the two of us, you are my servant!”
Mira sighed. “I have to remind you that my soul is Mira but my body is yours. If the royal family sees me bring the tray to the kitchen what will they think? They will ask me where my personal maid is. And how will I answer them? Shall I tell them that you are here in the room relaxing? If I tell them that, I’m sure the Luna Queen will come here and drag you out of the room and scold you. Can you imagine the spectacle you are putting yourself in?”
Grrr. Mira has a valid point again! Luna Rosie bit her lower lip in frustration. It seems she can’t boss this infuriating servant at all. So annoying!
Later, she will think of a way to punish Mira. She picked up the tray. She needs to keep up with the facade and play her role as Mira’s personal maid. If she exposes that stupid servant too early, it might backfire on her because no one would believe her. She needed her husband by her side before she reveals the truth to everyone.
After Luna Rosie left the room, Mira sat on the chair, facing the mirror on the dresser table, wondering what Luna Rosie is planning in her mind right now. That bitch would surely find a way to punish her.
She took a deep breath and prepared herself mentally and emotionally.
Luna Rosie finally returned to the room and saw Mira sitting on the dressing table. “Stupid servant. That’s my dresser table. You have no right to sit there!”
“No problem. It’s all yours.” Mira stood up and vacated the chair.
Luna Rosie kicked the chair hard. “From now on, stop using my things! Do you understand?"
Mira rolled her eyes. “You mean I can’t use your undies and your clothes as well? You want your flawless body to wear cheap clothes? What would the royal family think if I started wearing cheap clothes? Should I tell them you don't want me to wear your clothes?”
Luna Rosie's eyes narrowed into a slit.
“You are a fool. You are not thinking smartly. Your husband is not home yet. No one will believe you. If you continue to act high and mighty and bully me then you will end up punished by the royal family. You will end up killed before you can tell them the truth. Think wisely!” Mira snapped at her, scolding her for being arrogant and conceited.
Enraged that a mere servant dared to scold her, Luna Rosie raised her right hand about to hit Mira’s face.
But Mira caught her hand before it hit her skin. “Huh? Are you really going to hit your own face? Think again! And I warn you, don’t push me to the edge, I might lose my patience…” she warned her.
“And what can you do?” Luna Rosie asked, her tone dripping with venom.
Mira’s eyes gleamed devilishly. “You want to know what I can do to you? Listen carefully…I could easily frame you and inform the Luna Queen that you are bullying me because I lost my memory. They will punish you for sure. I could easily ask them to cut your tongue, dig your eyes out and make you blind, or lock you up in the dungeon to never see the light again. Do you want that to happen to you? If yes, keep angering me and I will make you pay a hundredfold for every pain you cause me!”
“How dare you!” Luna Rosie uttered a string of profanities, simmering in anger.
Mira took a long deep breath to control her rising temper. “You requested Lena be kicked out so you could replace her. I already gave you what you wanted. Please don’t tempt me to do the unthinkable. Now that we are both in this complicated situation let’s not worsen the situation. Don’t force me to become a bad person. I might be tempted to really get rid of you once and for all. So from now on behave like my personal maid and wait for your husband to come home. OK?”
Nostrils flaring in anger, Luna Rosie snarled and left the room.
‘The bitch is now gone, calm down.’ Mira thought to herself, her breathing gradually slowing down.
She already knows that bringing Luna Rosie into the room will make her life a living hell. Indeed it’s true, her peace has now been ruined. Such a stupid mistake on her part. That bitch always finds ways to annoy and insult her. But she can’t change anything now. What is done is done.
All her life she never treated other people badly. She was always kind and considerate of other people’s feelings. But this time it was different. Her happiness was at stake and she was repeatedly bullied.
How should she proceed? Should she follow the path of 'Girl Gone Bad'?
