Chapter 124 I Am Still The Boss

“Then, he should leave. After all this is my palace not his!” stating her point coldly, she did not wait for the response of the stunned knights as she walked in.

The aura of dominance and authority was so strong that the knights did not dare to stop her again.

She reached closer where the knights were practicing and scanned the whole ground with a hint of curiosity.

She had seen the man fighting with beasts but these are vampires, who are at a different level when it comes to power.

They have the power of beasts with the brains of humans and know sneaky tricks. She was sure that they would not mind playing dirty for winning.

She could see that they were already using underhanded methods to win. But she could not find the man she was looking for.

A few of the vampires whose eyes were lighter in shade than Rafael passed her a glance but did not wait to greet her or welcome her.

As an uninvited guest, she was thoroughly ignored and left to tend herself.

She waited for one of them to be free since she knew even if she would ask them about the slave while they were sparring, they would ignore her thoroughly and she did not want to be insulted.

But even after waiting for a while, no one paid her any attention and after ending one fight, they started another before she could take a step towards them.

Ha! with a cold smirk on her face, she walked forwards towards their resting area making the eyes of every man, vampire or human widened.

They all looked at each other with panic stricken eyes but no one moved to stop her when she opened the door.

In the room, most of the knights were roaming and lying without shirts or some were only in their towels while coming out for the bath.

They all stopped in their tracks and stood there stunned as if they could not believe their eyes. But after rubbing and blinking a few times, the scene did not change.

They could still see the girl standing on the door without an ounce of embarrassment and now she was even walking in.

“This.. this is supposed to be the men’s room.” Hazel could feel her skin getting hotter. But if she would give up now, she would only be mocked later.

She nodded her head lightly and the fuming man who wanted her to leave but entered nonetheless.

“I am looking for a new knight who was brought in a few days ago. He was from the dark forests of Amora with brown hair and green eyes.“ They exchanged glances at her words, forgetting that they were still standing naked in front of their mistress.

“Hahahaha! I never knew that slaves were also called knights these days! If I did not know any better I would have thought I missed a knight’s presence.“ The man laughed with his eyes full of disdain and many joined making her confused.

Rafael didn’t say that the boy would serve her as his loyal knight. But looking at the expressions that were full of disgust, she realized that was not the case.

But then why would Rafael lie to her?

“My lady, there is some confusion. The slave you are talking about is not here. Only the knights who are getting trained and those who are already working for the lord can enter.” a man with black eyes, that shows he was different from them.

“Then where is he?” as the words left her mouth, she could hear another round of laughter and soft chuckles. They were all sneering at her lack of awareness.

But she could not show them that she was flustered. Could she? She scanned her eyes on the whole room and halted on the one who was most active.

“I can see you enjoy laughing a lot! Why don’t you come with me and serve me for a day.

Even i want to see how long you can laugh! Maybe I will start to laugh when your smile turns into tears.” his smile turned stiff as he glared at the weak woman who didn’t know her place.

Coming straight to the den of men who could shred her into pieces like a soft piece of cake, yet standing there and threatening her. If he would not teach her a lesson then she would never learn.

“I can understand that you feel sympathetic towards the slave because of your conditions, but that did not mean he would be treated differently than other slaves.

Wouldn’t it be unfair if he would practice with us?” with a warm smile on his face and despite the soft voice everyone laughed again.

They all waited for her to give up and leave from there with tear filled eyes but she just chuckled. The confidence on her face surprised many who were waiting for her to feel humiliation.

Hazel knew the man was comparing her with the slave because she was also bought and sold as the trophy that would bring peace.

She had no freedom to follow her will just like slaves.

“Do you know what is most important in this world?” tilting her head she walked towards the man, her eyes were full of mirth and glowing like stars that stunned all of them.

“It is not money, not strength you are so proud of but power!

The power can help us to sit higher than anyone. So, even if you are a strong vampire or higher knight, in the end, you have to follow my orders.

And the slave you are laughing on belong to me, so his position is higher than an average knight like you who have no one to rely on.

It would be better that you open your eyes and see, you are just a worker here while i am the owner and i will make sure that slave you are laughing on would be your master soon.”
