Chapter 148 Old habits come back

“1-I was um set to look after the rogues-“

“I just saw their food headed towards them, I don’t see you being the one to deliver it!” Mr. Carson

narrowed his eyes as he looked her up and down. “The library hasn’t been cleaned since you left. I want

you to scrub it from top to bottom before the end of the day. I will be coming by to check to make sure

you’re doing it right incase you’ve forgotten.”

“Mr. Carson-“

“I don’t want to hear it! Go!” He shouted. The words came back in a harsh slap that woke Doris up. She

turned and hurried down the hall feeling like the weak girl all over again. Her inner wolf tried to fight

against the side of her that wanted to obey what everyone else demanded of her. She could feel Cordelia

growl inside her. Low and certain, she wanted to take control but now wasn’t the time to let her.

Bitterly, she imagined his horrified face when he realized he screamed orders at the prince’s mate. It

would be so satisfying to have those who stepped on her realize she mattered. What would they do

when they thought of all the bad things they did to her when they didn’t know she was his mate? Would

they regret it all? Or would they hope she wouldn’t remember any of

it?

But then again-she would rather just never see any of them ever again. They weren’t worth her troubles.

The path down to the library was possibly the most familiar part in the entire palace. She could get there

with her eyes closed without missing a single step. It was no doubt her favorite place in the whole

kingdom, but she also remembered how dirty it had become in her absence.

Slowly, she opened the large doors and let the familiar creak rest deep in her bones. Would this always

be her life if the king didn’t recover? She couldn’t imagine William letting her go after all they had been

through. His anger showed through every time she mentioned wanting to be free-the king was her only

hope and now that hope seemed lost and forgotten. It was unlikely William would let his mate go without

some sort of fight.

Like clockwork, Doris went straight to the storage cabinets and brought out all the supplies she needed

to clean the mess. Her mind went numb as she fell into old habits and scrubbed the floor on her hands

and knees. Why hadn’t anyone been set to clean in her absence? She’d been removed from the library

long before she even left to the north with William.

The sun started to go down and every inch of her could barely move by the time someone interrupted

her. The large doors alerted their arrival loudly and made her duck behind one of the desks to scrub an

area she’d forgotten. The scolding already rattled her brain and made her afraid to see the

disappointment upon Mr. Carson’s face.. “Doris?” A deep voice called. Doris froze. His steps echoed

through the room and stopped right by the desk she was hunched behind, as if he knew exactly where

she was the second he stepped into the room and his body had no choice but to go to her.

“What are you doing down there?” William asked her. He knelt down in front of her and looked at her

used rag with a distaste in his gaze.

“I was asked to clean the library.” Doris said and dropped the rag in the dirty bucket of water. William

gripped her arm and forced her to stand.

“You don’t have to be this anymore, Doris.” William said. “I thought I made that clear.”

“You can say that to me, but I can’t tell that to others, William.” Doris whispered. She glanced at the large

doors that were still slightly opened, she wondered if anyone was lingering outside. “They can still order

me to do things and I have no reason to tell them no.”

“You already know what role is waiting for you if you want it.” William walked around the desk and swiped

his finger across the surface as if he was checking for dust. Doris let out a slow breath. He would find no

trace of dust in here.

“I don’t think it would be wise for me to accept that offer. You still have a lady technically.”

“I can have her moved out in an hour-” 3

“Even so, I don’t think I’m ready to accept that title.” Doris said. He paused his pacing and eyed her but

she pushed on. “I do care for you, William. You know I do. But I never wanted to become the lady of this

palace-I just need some time to process it.” 1(This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)

William clenched his jaw. She prepared herself for some sort of outburst or vengeful comment that would

hit her where it hurt the most-but none came.

“Then you’ll be my personal maid. No one is allowed to ask you to do anything for them unless they ask

me first.” William glanced around the library that now sparkled clean. “Unless you would prefer to stay in

the library.” He said almost bitterly. She couldn’t tell why. 1

“Your personal maid? Are you sure—“

“I wouldn’t ask you to actually be my maid, just to accept the title so you can do as you wish in the palace

without anyone to stop you.” William interrupted. He lifted his chin a little and she couldn’t help but

admire how sharp his jawline was. She tried to shake the thoughts away before they distracted her.

“Each prince is allowed to have their own personal servants.”

“William-”

“If you won’t accept the title as my lady, you can at least accept this. I don’t see you as a maid and I hate

seeing you in that uniform and scrubbing floors as if you’re nothing.” William

growled.

“Would I take the room near yours,”

“You can take my own damn bed for all I care.” William turned and headed to the door.

“Where are you going?” Doris called after him. She quickly moved around the desk and went to follow

him.

“I’m going to tell them of your new title and if they set you to clean floors again, I’ll tear out their tongues

and force them to clean the walls with it.”

Doris had to turn her head to keep in her laugh. She was truly disturbed if she found that part of him

funny when she used to find it terrifying.

“Go to my rooms, I’ll meet you there.” William grumbled.(This will be daily updtaed at

Doris broke off from him and did as he said. She watched his back as he headed towards the servants

quarters and she was only glad she didn’t have to join him.

His room was an utter mess when she had last come through, but now it stood as normal as ever. The

fire was low and kept the room warm while a tray of steaming tea was waiting by the end table. Had he

been here before he went to find her?

“William?” A light, seductive voice sounded from William’s closet. Doris froze before she slowly backed

towards the door.

It was too late. Melody stepped out of his closet wearing nothing but a lace set of undergarments. “Oh, I

missed you so much. I hope you don’t mind-What the hell are you doing here?” Melody growled when

her eyes landed on Doris.

“1–“ Doris felt as if her mind went completely blank. A jealous rage built up inside her. Melody had hoped

to seduce William-would it have worked if Doris wasn’t here? Would he have found what she was

wearing irresistible and laid with her in his bed like he had before they left to the north?

The thoughts tainted her mood like a lick of fire. She curled her hands into fists at her sides

“What are you doing in the Prince’s room? He only allows those he invites into his private chamber.”

Melody smirked across at Doris as if she believed she had the upper hand. She swayed her hips as she

crossed the room towards Doris and it only made her want to shove the girl out of the nearest window.

“The prince did invite me here.” Melody pulled a white invitation out from her lace bra and handed it over

to Doris. Doris almost didn’t want to accept it, but she had to see.

Inside, William’s elegant writing invited her for tea so they could talk. Carefully, she folded the letter and

handed it back.

“My mistake. I’ll leave you to it then.”(This will be daily updtaed at www.jar.com)

“Like hell you are! You little bitch-“ Melody neared Doris just as the door opened.

“If you get any closer to her, I’ll break your neck.”
