บท 98: The pet

Everyone who heard the scream ran in the direction it had come from, mostly the guests who had been walking out to take a stroll in the palace garden. They hurried back to see who had screamed and why. Among the people was Princess Madeline, who was walking with her elder brother.

"From that scream, I think your pet must have eaten another servant in the palace like it did yesterday, Aaron. Tsk, the people here don't know how to mind their business. It will serve them all right if they get eaten by Annala." She remarked, elegantly fanning herself with a hand fan while she walked slowly with her brother toward the gathering crowd, likely watching his pet eat another person, just like when they'd first arrived yesterday, and a servant had dared to drop a tray in fear startling the poor pet and causing it to pounce on her and tear her to pieces.
