You Are The One That I Want By Doja Cat ~????||

Other side, Frenchies was standing on the corridor, watched the rain that were pouring down slowly. A burning cigarette could be seen between his forefingers. After getting back into his human form, he was finding it more difficult to control his emotions. Now that his emotions were left like mess, only cigarette was left for him to burn those bizarre thoughts.

He heard about the maids that had been summoned by the king at late night. The outcome delighted him since he had successfully intrigued the king's emotions. In the morning, he was passing the windows when he heard about the maids gossiping about how unimportant the queen to the king. He wanted to ignore the matter but then he spotted Ayra in a distant away. From the look on her face, he could tell that how insecure she felt at that moment.

Frenchies ended his cigarette before reaching out to pull another one. He heard about how careless Siemus sounded earlier in front of the king. Thinking that he was impatient to take care of her but she gave him no face or concern, his mind was deeply bothered.

Couldn't she think of him as a friend at least?

Frenchies continued to smoke absentmindedly untill he heard light footsteps coming from the other end of corridor. It was Siemus who thought of walking around for a while. Alexander suggested her to move around as much as possible to heal fast.

Frenchies looked back at her and saw her staring around amusingly as if she was observing the structure of this palace. Shurgging off, he turned back to stare at the rain again. Since she didn't care about him, why would he need to pay attention on her? Who was she?

Siemus continued walking until she spotted him standing against the railing alone. Failed to notice his poker face, Siemus approached him initiatively and spoke after smacking on his shoulder,

" Hey pussy cat, why are you here watching the rain like a lonely pathetic lover?"

Siemus grinned before standing beside him to join without hearing his permission. Frenchies squeezed his eyes shut in annoyance.

Couldn't she act like a sweet, tender woman once? Who greeted a man by smacking on his shoulder?

Frenchies wandered before scoffing at her face,

" Who is pathetic lonely lover, Oldie? You forgot that how many women I have,huh?"

Siemus rolled her eyes at his comment. He was really so sincere with his words. Last time, she caught him fucking a maid directly.

She turned around to cross her arms together. Glaring hard at his face, she demanded clapping her palms together,

" Hey wait, Pussycat! You forgot about our deal? What did you promise to me? You should start calling me 'Aunty' from now on since I have successfully convinced the king to return your human form."

Frenchies watched her speechlessly. His teeth clenched together in anger since he had really agreed with her proposal helplessly.

Hearing nothing from her, Siemus urged stepping closer to anger him more,

" Why aren't you talking? Come on! Call me, aunty. Practice it from now on! Say! "

Frenchies was going insane because of her constant nagging. He didn't understand why was it so hard to call her aunty. Loosing himself to his unreasonable emotions, Frenchies stepped forward to corner her against the railing suddenly.

Even Siemus didn't expect such action from him all of sudden. Her back pressed against the wet wall, she looked up at him with her pair of round eyes. Frenchies leant down towards her face and spoke firmly between his gritted teeth,

" If you insist on asking me to call you 'aunty', I will tell everyone that how seductive you look with your bra only. Now choice is yours, Oldie. Good night! "

Frenchies finished his words with an evil smile. Lifting himself up from her body, he turned around humming a soft tune to dissapare into the darkness. Siemus was left with no words to rebuke.

Not caring about who heard her or not, she shouted hysterically,

" Frenchies! Do you know that you are an asshole? What did you just say? Come back here! You fucking pussycat! I dare you! Come back here! "

Back inside Cedric's room, the room had been quiet since the moment, that maid confessed how did they bicker about the queen's status. The ones who enticed her in gossiping then were mentally digging out a hole inside the ground to save themselves.

Cedric chuckled twisting his lips in sarcasm,

" How considered of you! Since I have so many well wishers around, why do I need loyal guards to serve my kingdom? "

He continued placing his feet over the tea table in front of him,

" Since you all are worried about myself, I am thinking about giving you few new task from tomorrow. From tomorrow onwards, you all will serve the wolves instead of my guards."

The maids all gasped together in fear instantly. The wolves never allowed commoners to take care of them instead of those people who were used to take care of them. Going out to take care of them had only one meaning. Either you become dead or you become their foods. The maids were all aware of it.

Behind the curtains, Ayra couldn't believe that how the situation had turned. She was partially guilty to suspect Cedric so fast but couldn't help herself from smiling sweetly. Her heart felt warm after understanding that how her emotions were important to him.

Now those heavy feelings had washed away from her mind, her rational thoughts came back. She found herself so stupid to hide her inside her own living room. If Cedric found her now, she would be teased by him for eternity.

Now she had seen through the truth, there was no way that she should keep hiding over there. It was best to run away before others notice her amidst the crowd.

With a contended heart, Ayra finally slipped out from the curtains, picked up her pace cautiously to head outside. Before she could run outside, a voice came from her back suddenly,

" Not so fast, Princess. Welcome back! "

Ayra "..."
