Chapter 23 Greyson's POV My mind slowly conto and the last feeling of sleep ebbed, but there was something strange here. Or rather something was missing.
My eyes flipped open and I realized what was missing- Freya was yet to cinto my room. I had given an order for her to be bere every morning before I woke up to pull the curtains apart and begin cleaning the room: In truth, it had happened once when she cleaned the room while I was still sleeping and it had been the most pleasant for me, waking up to her intoxicating scent tickling my nose had been blissful so I had made it into an order.
Now that she wasn't here, I truly felt like something was missing Sighing heavily, I moved to sit up on the bed, swinging my legs off it and slipping my feet into the bedroom slippers at the bottom of the bed. Seems like I might have to punish someone again." The events of the previous day flooded into my mind and I ran a hand through my hair to get it to stop throbbing.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI had seen Freya's movement becsloppy from the moment she had entered the room and had taken in the sight of the large men sitting around the table, my first thought had been that she had been scared and intimidated.
But it began to get worse and worse, with her tray trembling badly as a result of her shaky fingers. The last thing that I expected though was that she would let go the tray at the exact moment that she had gotten toand would have let it's contents pour onto my body.
Tremors of irritation had wracked through my frand the wetness of my pants had been difficult to bear plus the sight of my officials watching the scene closely and silently judging the incompetence of my handmaiden pumped more anger into my veins.
Freya's pleading had gotten tosurprisingly, especially since it was her first mistake since she had gotten here. Whenever I gave an instruction she followed every detail of it till it reached perfection.
She was fast and meticulous when it cto her chores and I had never had to complain about any of it.
My biggest fear at the auction that had preventedfrom initially purchasing her and proved to be nothing at the end of the day because Freya never let her daughter get in the way of her work.
The younger girl must have been used to her mother working because she was usually well behaved and patiently waiting for her mother to finish whatever chore she had at hand, whenever I saw her.
Freya too had put in the efforts to make sure her daughter always looked neat and presentable and she was quiet at all times. I had been impressed with the discovery.

And once had started, I knew I had to complete it. I had not seen her for the rest of the day after the punishment even when it was tfor dinner which she was supposed to serve bu 1 decided to cut her sslack.

The least I had expected this morning was a remorseful maid doing her best to get back into my good books again by presenting herself early enough to begin her chores. Starting with pulling open my curtains.
1 I sighed heavily, moving to stretch out my strained muscles, it had been really busy with activities lately and I knew that 1 needed more rest.
Moving to the window I pulled apart the big drapes and the beautiful sight of my garden below made a ghost of a smile paint my lips. #
