"Hey, how I'm I supposed to talk to Jessie without a phone? Get her a phone already." Katherine sighed.
Jason scowled at the phone. "Do you think I haven't already done that? I sent her a new phone but the next day I saw it on my desk."
"Wow... she's really mad. So what now?" She asked.
"I'll send a helicopter to the hospital." Jason stated curtly.
"A helicopter?"
"To take you to the manor." He said.
Katherine shook her head, it was sure nice to have money. "Is the manor even that far? Why would you buy a house so far away from civilisation?"
"Don't ask questions Katherine, just go talk to her." He replied.
"Tch... you didn't even ask me if I was busy." She snorted.
"Don't worry, I'll speak to you boss." He said with a hint of amusement in his voice.
"Whatever bye." She rolled her eyes.
"They'll be there in fifteen minutes." He said cutting the call.
**************************************************
Katherine jaw dropped the moment they removed the hood from her eyes. She was so annoyed at first, as if she would know the way to his manor from a helicopter. But it was all worth it, if she had this beautiful mansion she would also keep it hidden from the world.
"Miss Park, I'm butler Choi Myeong Soo. I'll take you to miss Jessie." A middle aged man bowed in front of her.
Katherine nodded absent mindedly. Would she ever be able to build a house like this for herself? Was is something that was possible in this lifetime? This world was truly unfair! The rich get richer and people like her could only grasp so much. She barely followed the butler, so many times he had to get her after she wandered away. She was lead to the back of the manor, the butler called it the east wing, how fancy. To think that only two people lived in this huge massive house, wow...

The butler bowed and walked away as soon as she stood in the sun, she took in the breathtaking view of vegetation and water. Her eyes finally settled on a slender but curvy woman sunbathing.
"Wow... just look at you, Jason is racking his brain thinking of how to pacify you and here you are living the life." She stated as she walked over to Jessie.
Jessie lifted the sunglasses and looked over to the voice. "Katherine?" She asked with excitement in her voice.
She got up immediately and ran to hug Katherine. "Hey! You're so oily." Katherine scolded her playfully.
"I was bored to death, you definitely know when to make an entrance!" She almost squealed.
"I'm so jealous, I wish I could be bored. This is the dream vacation." Katherine sighed looking around.
"I guess, I always wished I could rest like this when I was still so busy. Be careful what wish for." Jessie said. "I would ask you why your here, but from your earlier remark, Jason sent you?"
"He did." Katherine agreed.
"I see he has reported me?" She asked as she walked back to grab her robe.
Katherine laughed. "Remember I was on your side when Paul sent me." Jessie continued. "So choose carefully." She said playfully.
Katherine rolled her eyes.
"Do you want to stay here or go in?" Jessie asked.
"Well I don't have a bathing suit so inside?" Katherine said.
Jessie eyed her, "we're almost the same size wanna borrow mine?"
"Why should I? I'm only here for a few hours." She shrugged.
"Don't leave me" Jessie pouted. "You know what, let go get massages, butler Choi told me about this missus in the manor. You look like you need a massage, we can talk after it."
Katherine narrowed her eyes at Jessie.

"Come on, I don't like going to the spa alone. And you're here now, besides I heard they are guys and incredibly hot." Jessie wriggled her brows at Katherine.
"Why do I feel like you're trying to avoid the talk." Katherine asked suspiciously.
"I promise I'm not, it's just I always wanted to do these things with a girlfriend, pretty please." She smiled adorably, giving her cutest puppy eyes.
Katherine gave in and agreed. After a long intense and relaxing while the two ladies sat relaxed in the steam room.
"That. Was. Awesome." Katherine moaned.
"Right? Told you so." Jessie moaned as well.
"Don't you think Jason has suffered enough?" Katherine asked after a while.
"Ugh... don't ruin this perfect moment" Jessie groaned.
"I don't know what better time to address you emotional baggage, you're body is completely relaxed don't you want your heart to be relaxed as well?" Katherine asked.
"Fine." She spat out. "I know I'm being too much, I think? I don't know I'm just confused, it's just anytime he says things like I can't do this or I can't do that, it makes me aware of my depressing situation." She said slowly.
"But you do realise he's mostly right, as much as you would hate to admit." Katherine said. "He just wants to protect you."
"Yeah, but that the point. I don't want him to protect me, it makes me feel awkward when he does that. I'm a strong and capable person, why did I have to be in a situation that I need to be protected?" She asked sadly.
"So you're mad at your situation not him?" Katherine asked.
"No, I am definitely mad at Jason. He said some pretty hurtful things to me." She pouted.
"I get that, and he made a mistake. Are you going to keep punishing him for that forever?"
"Well I'm still angry about it!" She huffed.
"Are you angry at him or at you life? It sounds to me like your just using him as you punching bag, because you're frustrated." Katherine scolded her.
"Hey!"
"What, you know I'm telling the truth. And you know that Jason is right, you can't go to that party Jessie. It's not safe for you!" Katherine continued.
"Wait a minute... are you getting angry at me right now? Did I ask to be kidnapped? Or framed for murder, or wait this one is good. Dead?" She laughed scornfully.
"But you were, and you have to live with it now. Life sucks, I get it. Don't punish Jason for it." She said.
"Why not? It's not as if his not also guilty in all this." She crossed her hand across her chest.
"But he's been making up for that for the past two months, don't you think it's time to give him some slack?" Katherine asked. "You and I both know you need Jason, and although he doesn't owe you anything he still helps."
"So I have to leave my life as the object of pity?" Jessie frowned.
"Jason does not pity you, no one does. Hell you make it impossible for anyone to do that. Jason is in love with you Jessie." Katherine said, when she saw Jessie bit her lip and avoid her gaze her eyes widened. "You know? He told you?!" She asked even though she already knew the answer to that.
Jessie met her gaze again and nodded.

The Emperor's Concubine
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] The heroine is good and the villainess is evil. That was the absolute truth. That rule was undeniable as well as the fact that only the heroine would receive true love and her happy ending. Likewise, the malicious villainess would always suffer and leave the stage to clear the path for the perfect heroine in the end. So, for Blanche it felt like her world came crashing around her when she remembered the truth about her life. As the villainess in the typical romance novel “To Be Empress” she was fated to be condemned and abandoned by her lover. No matter how devoted she was to Theodore Estien, the emperor of Artias, she would only be the bratty concubine that would obstruct the heroine, who happened to be Theodore's lawful wife and the empress. In the end, the villainess would be deserted and executed. It was destined to happen like this, and yet she couldn't give up. She had to change the future. Preventing the romance between the main characters would get her killed. Much like trying to steer away from the enemies' intrigues, in which she was already caught up, would. But neither the heroine nor the emperor's political rivals would change the fact that Blanche loved the man that was supposed to be the heroine's. And no matter what happened she would always stay by her lover's side. So she wouldn't just follow the book's storyline and let her own doom arrive. Blanche would survive while trying to suppress all of the selfish desires that had made her the villainess. But was she truly fine with that? Did she not desire more than just surviving? Did she even have the right? Could the villainess ask for a happy end? Was she too brazen if she just wanted to stay with the man she loved and receive his affection? And wasn't there a bit more to this novel than she remembered? She didn't know and in the end that mattered little when the world around her changed with each day as more and more questions about the future and the past arose. "The Emperor's Concubine" will be updated thrice a week (usually on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) *The Profanity tag was added due to the characters' occasional swearing, which should not happen too often.
