Chapter 11 Enemy

Chapter 11 Enemy
Selene 

The moment I walked back into the kitchen, all eyes landed on me. Ravenna was specifically staring at me and if anything, she looked to be in rage. There was fury written in her eyes and she just kept glaring at me. If I could kill, I would have already fallen dead to the ground. 

She did not know it yet, but she saved me a lot from Dain. If not for the marks, he would have done something to me. Something like getting intimate with me, and I was grateful that Ravenna actually whipped me. 

“All of you, get to your posts. Slaves 1, 3, and 5 will clean the kitchen. Slave 5 will scrub the floors. The other two will take care of the dishes.” My eyes widened. The kitchen was huge and she was just asking me to scrub the floors. Why did she not add someone to me? One person could do the dishes and two would scrub the floors. I slowly shook my head and sucked in a deep breath. Ravenna was trying to punish me. That was what she was trying to do. 

“The rest of you should get moving. Make sure everything is sparkling.” She said in a loud voice and everyone began to move until it was the four of us left in the kitchen. Mira left to get buckets and soap and Slave One who was a male, walked over to where the dishes were. 

It was just me left, staring at Ravenna. “Why are you looking at me? Move and get to work now!! Stop staring!! Get working!!” She yelled at me coldly and I spared one last look at her before walking away. I went in the direction that Mira went, so I could get what I wanted. 

“You shouldn't have gotten Ravenna angry,” Mira said once I walked into the storeroom and she passed a bucket to me along with everything that I would need. 

“I did nothing. She was the one who poured water on me when I was sleeping and then went ahead to whip me.”

“You reported her to Alpha Dain. I'm very happy that she almost got suffocated, but she's not going to leave you alone now and will deliberately give you large tasks to punish you. Four people usually scrub the kitchen floors. Not one.” Mira told me. I knew it. The kitchen was huge. Very big for one person to clean. 

And I did not report Ravenna to Dain. He saw everything himself when he asked me to undress. There was no need to explain that. “Now Ravenna has added you to her black book. She is not going to leave you alone until she gets rid of you.” And I would be the one to get rid of her. 

Mira got what she wanted as well and we both returned to the kitchen. She went to join slave one in doing the dishes and I immediately started scrubbing the floors. When I returned, Ravenna was not in the room and that was a fucking relief for me.

The kitchen was so big and I had not even gone halfway when Mira and slave one finished with the dishes. He left but Mira stayed behind to help me. I was very grateful for her help and she was even more experienced and faster than me. We were almost halfway done when Ravenna stormed into the kitchen. 

“What is going on here??” She hissed and there was a look of anger in her voice and eyes when she saw Mira with me. Helping me. 

“She is helping me.” I simply replied but Ravenna was not taking any of it. She suddenly turned livid and glared at Mira. 

“So you like working a lot huh?” 

“She was done with hers and offered to help me,” I said, standing up to my feet. My whole body was wet and filled with soap and I was only halfway done. It had been hours. 

“And on whose permission was that done? If you badly want to work, I have many spots where you can work. What gave you the right to think that you can assist slave 5?” Mira stood up on her feet and there was a look of fear on her face. 

She was scared of Ravenna and flinched each time she spoke. “I… I…was…only helping.” 

“I did not ask you to. Your task was to do the dishes. If you are done, I suggest you get out of the place before I get angry. Get out.” Mira gave me an apologetic look, but she hurried away, leaving just me and Ravenna. 

“Can you leave as well?” My voice was low but Ravenna heard me loud and clear. 

“Now I know why you get so bold all the time. You have the favor of Alpha Dain. He has a soft spot for you.” Ravenna muttered and there was nothing but anger and hatred in her eyes. The tension and everything better us just went from bad to worse. She would hate me more because I got what her daughter worked so hard to get and still did not get it. Then she lost her finger for it. 

“Don't think that you are special. You were brought in as a breeder. But he asked you to be a slave. That should show that you are not special. Alpha Dain will get tired of you and kill you. If that does not happen quickly, I will see to it that it does. I'm going to fuck you up, Selene. You will regret ever making an enemy of me.” She swore, drawing out every word. Anyone would be scared, but I was not. Fuck Ravenna. 

“If you are done, can you step aside? I have to work.” She turned livid. Her eyes burned with more anger. My words only got her more pissed and she looked like she was ready to squeeze life out of me. But she stepped away and stormed out of the room.
