An evil maid

Abril was very happy to have a little freedom again. That night, she slept soundly, so soundly that the next day she overslept. One of the maids woke her up rudely by pulling back the sheet and speaking to her in a scornful voice.

“Wake up! How long do you plan to keep sleeping?”

Opening her eyes, Abril found herself facing a maid who looked at her with hatred.

“Get up,” the maid said.

Abril got up, not wanting to argue with the maid.

“Where’s the other maid?” She asked.

“She’s sick. I’ll be attending to you.”

“That’s not necessary. You can go.”

The maid threw Abril’s clothes on the bed and said, “Fine! I didn’t want to serve you anyway.”

The maid left the room. Abril took her dress and got changed, wishing never to see that maid

again.

During breakfast, Abril saw the same maid again. She behaved politely, but her gaze was still full of hatred. As Abril got up to go to her classes and passed by the maid, she stuck her foot out and

Abril fell.

Falling to the floor, Abril looked at the maid, but she acted as if she hadn’t done anything. Other maids helped her up and asked if she was alright.

Abril’s knees ached, but otherwise, she was fine.

“Are you okay?” Sirius walked in on her and asked, seeing her. “What are you doing? It’s late.”

“I’m sorry, I overslept.” Abril replied.

“Let’s go.”

Abril followed Sirius to the room where she received her magic lessons. He handed her a book and said, “I hope the princess will pay attention to me today.”

“From now on, I will.”

Sirius thought it strange that the princess was so cooperative and asked, “Did something happen to make the princess change her mind?”

“His Majesty promised me he would reduce my lessons if I paid attention.”

“I see.”

Sirius continued her lesson. When it was over, Abril went home and devoted herself to tending her garden. That night, in the king’s chambers, Abril waited for Alessandro to arrive. He arrived late, as usual. Seeing that she was awake, he greeted her and asked,

“Hello princess, what are you still doing awake?”

“I was waiting for Your Majesty.”

“What for?”

“I haven’t forgotten that I must give Your Majesty an heir.”

“A few days ago, you seemed to have forgotten.”

“I was upset then with Your Majesty.”

“And now you’re not?”

“No. Your Majesty has kept his promise, well, halfway.”

Alessandro approached Abril and asked, “So, do you intend to fulfill your wifely duties tonight?”

“Yes, unless Your Majesty is tired, in which case we could just sleep.”

“I’m not.” He replied with a smile.

Alessandro leaned in to kiss her and said, “I suppose the time has come to fulfill our obligation as

husband and wife.”

Alessandro continued kissing her, his hands circling her waist. Abril stood still, her arms at her sides. Alessandro said, “If you stay so still, it will be boring.”

“But Lady Elizabeth told me I should just stay still, and Your Majesty would do the rest.”

“Did she really tell you that?”

“Yes,” Abri replied.

Alessandro took her in his arms and carried her to the bed. He laid her down gently, settled on top of her, and took her lips again. As he devoured her mouth, he said, “You can touch me too, if you

want.”

Abril raised her hand, sinking her fingers into his hair, feeling its softness. Alessandro was surprised that she could do that and asked, “Why do you only touch my hair?”

“I don’t know. I just wanted to touch it. Does Your Majesty not like it?”

“It’s not that, it’s just…”

Alessandro sighed deeply and said, “It doesn’t really matter.”

And he continued kissing her, enjoying the softness and warmth of her lips. His hands moved down her neck to her breasts. He squeezed them, and Abril complained, “That hurts.”

“I’m sorry,” he replied.

Alessandro caressed Abril’s breasts gently and asked, “Is this better?”

“That feels strange. Why are you touching me there?” She questioned.

“Because they’re soft.”

“But…”

Alessandro silenced her with a kiss and said, “You talk too much.”

Alessandro continued caressing her body and kissing her lips, giving short kisses that gradually became deeper, something that began to frighten Abril. She began to tremble. Alessandro

noticed.

He moved off her and said, “Actually, I’m very tired, and I have to get up early tomorrow because I have to go out and inspect the kingdom. It’s best to leave it for another day.”

Abril was relieved, as she didn’t feel ready. Alessandro rested his head on the pillow and said, “I’ll be gone for a few days. While I’m gone, you don’t have to stay in the palace if you don’t want to, but you must continue with your magic lessons.”

Abril smiled broadly and said, “Really?”

“Yes, but you should hide your happiness a little.”

“I’m sorry.”

“It doesn’t matter. You had better get some sleep.”

Abril got under the covers, rested her head on the pillow, and said, “Goodnight, Your Majesty.”

Alessandro turned off the lights with his magic, plunging the room into darkness. “Goodnight, princess,” he replied.

The next day, when Abril woke up, the king was gone. She was about to get up when she heard a knock on the door. It must be the maid who helped her get dressed in the mornings. Abril gave her permission to enter. However, when she saw who had entered, she wished she would leave that

very instant. It was the same maid who had been rude to her the day before. She looked at her

with hatred and said, “Get changed, or you’ll be late.”

“I told you it wasn’t necessary for you to come.”

“The head maid sent me. If I don’t do my job, they’ll fire me.”

That maid helped Abril get dressed and said, “I’ll do your hair. Sit down.”

Abril sat on a chair in front of a mirror. She found it strange that the maid wanted to help her with her hair, but she did as she was asked. While she was combing her hair, she pulled at it, making her cry out in pain.

“Stop complaining so much. It’s your fault for having such tangled hair,” the maid said.

When the maid finished combing her hair, Abril had a headache from all the pulling, and she swore never to let her comb her hair again.
