"You can d-drop me down now you know" Chris stuttered not being able to look up at his glaring eyes.
"Fine" Rage left her, making her land roughly on her butt
"Awww!!....you monster"she glared at him. Her nose flared showing how upset she was.
"Thought you said I should drop you" he replied not in the least concerned.
Chris stood up massaging her sore butt while still glaring at him.
"Now...what the hell are you doing with those paintings?"He asked while crossing his arms.
"A-am taking them down as you can see"Chris replied a little nervous while still trying to showcase a little bravery.
"And who gave you permission or the right to do that?" He asked still keeping his eyes on her.
"What do you mean by that,am not a child.. although I just became an adult but that doesn't mean am still a child.... Okay maybe in the eyes of society since I just clocked 18 am still considered a child...."she kept on rambling on and on forgetting who she was talking to.
Rage angrily punched the wall close to her head, making her jump a little in shock.
He glared at her so much that Chris was sure she could see smoke coming out of his head.
"How old are you ...5? "
"I. Don't. Like. Noisy. Birds. Chris"Rage gritted out. Every muscle in his arms flexing with how much he was trying to control his anger.
Chris gulped, a little scared of upsetting him. No one knows when he will go full beast mode on her
"I-i have the right to take down whatever I am not comfortable with here,I am the king's daughter too"she mumbled under her breath
"What did you say?" Rage asked with a raised brow.
"N-nothing" she replied scared
'damn he is scary. Only his face can scare birds away from a farm'
Rage observed the girl in front of him, taking notice of her outfit.
"What the hell are you wearing, Rags??" He asked while laughing lightly
Chris face became so red like a tomato
"How is that your business" she replied crossing her arms and shyly keeping her head down with a hand on her pants trying to keep them up.
Rage felt amused by the girl in front of him but it didn't last cause suddenly he spoke
"Put them up now!" Rage commanded
'did this prick just command me? Okay nice Chris is gone'
It was like a switch was just turned on in her head making her raise her face to pointly stare at him.
"No"
"No..I will not!" she replied firmly , placing her arms on her waist.
Rage was a little taken aback by the show of bravery. Wasn't it just a while ago she was stuttering like some scared mouse?
"Don't test me Chris, you can't change anything in this palace without permission" Rage replied still staring at her.
Chris didn't back down she maintained eye contact with him , refusing to do as he say
"Rage or what ever they call you, Christiana Zac Smith doesn't ask permission from anybody..much less a buffoon like you" she said shoving her finger on his chest angrily.
"...."
"W-what did you just call me?" Rage was stunned , he couldn't believe his ears.
"A big headed buffoon. Stay away from me rage or I am going to shove my fingers in your eyes ,that way you won't be able to see me anymore and maybe.... just maybe... then you will leave me alone" She replied pointing her fingers close to his eyes without fear.
Rage eyes were wide. Not in a millennium would he believe that anyone could speak to him that way. People always were scared of him and what he could do. He was mute but it didn't last long.
One thing rage loves is to have control and have the final say and he is not ready to let a little girl walk all over him.
"Oh! I shouldn't be surprised by your threat seeming you just killed your mother. Am sure that's how you threatened her right" He replied with a faint smirk on his lips.
Every colour drained off of Chris face. She became pale and couldn't move at all.
On seeing how she quite she became, a little part of him wanted to feel guilty but he quickly shock it off and moved closer towards the quiet girl.
"Stop trying to fit in, you don't belong here. Your mere presence has riked havoc in our home and I don't like you at all. So you better keep your tiny hands off everything in this palace do you hear me?" Rage gritted out glaring at her.
A tear dropped from Chris eyes. She knew Rage never liked her from day one and always finds a way to attack her but she never thought he could be this petty by using her sore spot against her.
Chris stepped to the side stepping away from him. She looked up at him with tears in her eyes
"You are just scared that lust won't have time for your silly tantrums anymore and then you will be all a..."
"Don't you dare finish that statement"he spoke annoyed
"You better not appear before me next time, cause if you do, I won't hesitate to throw you out of the window" he said to her.
Chris wiped her eyes and smiled at him
"Yes your royal anger ohhh... I mean... rage , do you even have a name?" She replied mockingly bowing at him.
"My name is not for fools like you" he replied looking down on her.
"Right! Hmmm..... Well fools like me won't want to know birdbrains like you name anyway. We have a lot of 'fooling' around to do" she replied sassily.
Rage felt like he could explode everytime he comes across this spite fire of a girl, he ends up loosing his cool. He just hates her presence.
"Ohhh.... is that steam I see coming out from your ear..hmm now I understand why they named you rage, cool name by the way , soothes you alot" she replied patting his shoulders with a smile on her face.
Rage slapped her hand away from his shoulder , making her smile. He stormed away from her but stopped before he went far.
"My name is Aeshma....but you can call me Aiden. Don't you ever call me a birdbrain or make fun of my demon title again" he said with his back towards her before he walked away leaving a stunned Chris.
"And here I thought he loved the name, would have loved calling him birdbrain though ,it fits the idiot" she said to herself while shaking her head with a smile on her face.
Chris picked up the paintings and gave them to a maid passing by and requested for breakfast knowing that she already missed breakfast. Before she slipped into her room exhausted.
