Chương 19: Let's Test It

"Tsk! I did not know that the aunt of his majesty is the one responsible for washing used sheets!

Tch tch! Shall I ask Rafael to consider you and give you better work? After all, you are still part of the family!" Hazel looked at her with disdain but more than irritated, Scarlet was surprised as how she had left the bed without her knowing.

With widened eyes, she looked at the wet bed and then at Hazel who was still smirking with a bright face and beautiful emerald eyes.

With confusion, she picked up the blanket only to find the pillows adjusted as if someone was sleeping there.

"You tricked me!" Scarlet could not believe that a mere human was able to fool her and that also enjoying it.

She was so furious that she did not wait to confirm it was hazel before punishing her!

"As a pure blooded vampire, you are quite slow. And here I thought that vampires can hear our heartbeats and emotions!" she asked with a raised brow. That was the only reason she had paid so much effort in keeping her heartbeat normal and her expressions calm. Her governess had told her that they have strong senses, smelling and hearing was their strength.

"You! Are you looking down on me?" her chest heaved up and down as she asked that to hazel. Not ever in her life had she been humiliated this much or a mere human could never have challenged her.

"What did I do? I was sleeping soundly when the maid had asked me to wake up since you wanted to meet me. Now that I went to wash myself up, you are blaming me only for tricking you! Why would I do that?" Hazel blinked her eyes as she looked at the red and purple face of Scarlet who looked like she would faint right here with anger!

"I am glad that vampires had cold blood. Or else I would have to worry that you will have a heart attack! You should exercise more to keep yourself healthy, aunt. You are not getting any younger!" though she said that in a sweet and concerned voice. It was no less than lightning thrown on her head.

Her fangs came out instantly as she looked at hazel with bloodlust.

"Did you just call me old? You think just because you have protection of council, you can do anything? Do not forget that you are not the first to get married to Rafael and not the last one.

Beware of the dark areas, lady Stagenrib. Who knows which demon lurks in the dark and would devour your soul!" her eyes glowed red and her face that fuming just a while ago turned calm and a smirk formed on it, that confused hazel.

"You do not need to worry about me, I have grown up alone in a dark palace that was infamous for being desolated even by gods!

If I would have been afraid of demons, I would not have been talking to one!" she looked straight into the eyes of Scarlet who was gnashing her teeth.

What else would they do except killing her. But she knew even that would only happen when the council would stop keeping an eye on her safety. She would find a way to run away from here till then and start a new life.

Till then, she had to make sure that they knew that she was not a pushover.

"Now are you going to stand here all day? I need to change and get ready for breakfast. So, you better leave!" without sparing another glance to Scarlet, Hazel walked back towards her dressing table and sat there leisurely. Though her eyes were still settled on the woman who was standing there with a fuming face, she did not let her face show how anxious was with her presence.

Thank god! She knew that she would do something with her therefore she ran away putting her pillows in her place or else that cold water would have fallen all over her body.

"You! You are being too haughty by getting the seat of an empress. Huh?

Do you think that others would fear you because you even killed your governess who had taught you! No! Everyone would only loathe you that you did not even keep respect for the one who had taught you." the whole body of Hazel turned rigid for a second her hands halted.

The way Scarlet spat through words as if Hazel was the one who had killed the old lady. Her hands that were on her laps felt like it was painted red by the blood. She felt nauseated and hurt.

She could not believe that he had actually killed her. But why was she so worried about it? For the life of a human why she hated them so much.

Yet she could not help but shudder. Their life was nothing for them but a toy that they could play with anytime and then threw at us whenever they were tired. She couldn't help but feel hatred for all of them.

Even when her mind was facing the tempest, she did not utter a word. What if the lady was trying to agitate her so that her facade would fall.

With that thought, she collected herself again and parted her lips with a sweet smile,

"Ah, that! I did not like the woman. She was too noisy. So i generally complained to rafael that i did not like her. Who would have thought that he would actually kill her for me." her eyes filled with arrogance while her face turned dreamy as she turned to look at Scarlet, whose pale face had turned paler and her nails were digging deep into her palms.

"What do you think, Aunt? Is Rafael madly in love with me and following everything I say?

Shall I ask him that you are too irritating too. And see what he would do then?"
