Enslaved By The Ruthless Vampire Lord: Her Second Chance Mate

CHAPTER TWENTY

“This is good right?” Keira asked Naya with a smile on her face as she arranged the pancakes.

Naya giving her a thumbs up. She had yet to unravel the mystery of why she still couldn’t speak to Keira or the people around.

She would have very much loved to thank Keira for all her kindness

Keira smiled wider when she saw Naya’s thumbs up. She knew that it was difficult for Naya to communicate with her, and she appreciated the little gesture. She brought the plate of pancakes over to the table and set it down in front of Naya.

“I hope you like them,” she said. “I’ve been practicing my cooking skills and have learned how to perfect the making of pancakes.. ”

Naya picked up a fork and took a bite of one of the pancakes. Her eyes widened as she tasted the warm, fluffy goodness. She looked up at Keira and nodded, trying to express how delicious they were.

She quickly reached out for her notepad as she wrote,

“This is so good Keira. I’m sure Jennet won’t scold you..” she showed the notepad to Keira who giggled sheepishly.

Jennet always complained that she made the worst pancakes and had given her the task to keep on making pancakes till she got it right.

Keira blushed as she read Naya’s words. “I’m so glad you like them,” she said. “And I hope Jennet will be impressed, too. I just really want to get better at this, so I can be of more help around here.”

” And also get some peace. I hate her blabbing.. ” Keira whispered the last words as they both laughed.

” By the way, have you noticed that Jennet has been avoiding you?” Keira questioned with creased brows as Naya dropped the fork she was holding on the table.

She had noticed that too, Jennet no longer yelled at her like before, she hardly gave her tasks, the only thing she literally did was serve Lord Rhys meals, which she was beginning to find fun.

“I did. It’s kind of surprising… ” Naya wrote as Keira shook her head in agreement.

All the maids knew how Jennet hated Naya, but she just changed her actions towards Naya and avoided her.

“I wonder what happened,” Keira said, sounding genuinely puzzled. “Do you think she finally realized how cruel she was being to you? Or maybe something else happened?” She looked at Naya expectantly, waiting for her response.

But Naya just shrugged. She had no idea what could have caused the change in Jennet’s behavior. Maybe something had happened, or maybe not. She didn’t want to speculate.

But she was glad, she could finally be left alone.

“I’m glad she’s all quiet now and I envy you a lot…” Keira giggled, anyone who worked as lord Rhys’s maid always ended up as two things, it was either his meal or sex toy.

But it’s been up to a month and Naya seemed to be doing just fine.

Naya couldn’t help but feel a bit uncomfortable at the mention of Rhys. She didn’t like the way Keira had just spoken about him, as if he was some sort of predator as it made her feel very uneasy.

The fact they’ve never met worsens the situation.

“What does he look like?” Naya asked curiously as Keira read what she wrote.

” I’ve seen him just once… ” Keira began.

” And that was when I was lucky to serve meals at one of the parties that was hosted by him. Gosh, Naya… he’s so fucking hot!” Keira emphasized and Naya badly wanted to tell her to meet Kai.

She would pass out if she saw him then.

” Wait!!” Keira opened her eyes wide in horror.

” Don’t tell me you’ve never met him? ” She blinked repeatedly in surprise as Naya shook her head, indicating a no.

“You haven’t?” Keira exclaimed, sounding genuinely shocked. “But how is that possible? You live here, in his palace. You must have seen him at least once, right?”

Naya shook her head again, feeling a bit defensive. “No, I haven’t,” she wrote. “I haven’t had the opportunity to meet him. Each time I serve his meals, he’s never around.. ” she wrote down as Keira mouthed an ‘oh’

“That’s strange..” she mumbled. The Lord was always in his quarters, how come Naya had never met him once?

“It is strange,” Naya wrote in response. “I’ve wondered about it myself. But I don’t think it’s something I should question.” She was trying to be respectful and not seem like she was questioning Lord Rhys’s choices. Maybe she was just lucky.

“I don’t know,” Keira said thoughtfully.

“I think it’s a bit odd that you’ve never met him. I’m sure you’ve seen other people around the palace, so why not him?” She was really trying to get to the bottom of this mystery, and Naya found herself becoming increasingly uneasy.

“Maybe I’m the lucky type… ” Naya smiled as she wrote that down.

Each time she served the lord meals, Kai always showed up and he did not fail to chat with her.

“I know right..” Keira rejoined as they both laughed.

Naya picked up the notepad, she wrote down something before showing it to Keira.

“Kai? Who’s Kai?” Keira asked curiously.

” A guard. He’s Lord Rhys’ guard..”

” Lord Rhys guard… “Keira read, looking very surprised. She had never heard of the Lord having a guard. Did he even need one?

“Yes..” Naya shook her head confirming it.

“I’ve never heard of any Kai..” Keira confessed as Naya fixed her eyes on her.

She didn’t look so surprised as it seemed like Jake hardly stepped out.

” Who’s Kai to you, you seem to be very close to him?” Keira grilled, curious to know about the guard who was guarding the Lord.

“A friend..” Naya penned down with a hesitant look on her face.

Did she just accept being friends with that jerk?

“Oh. That’s cool..” Keira laughed.

“What does he look like? Maybe I might know him..” Keira grilled, eager to know about him.

Naya was about to write down his description when the door sprang open.

“Keira!!” Jennet stormed in and the smile on their faces fell.

” You’re here, chatting when I gave you something to work on!! ” She yelled at Keira, who just bent her head down.

Keira looked down at the floor, as she bit her lips hard.Content © NôvelDrama.Org.

“I’m sorry, Jennet,” she said, her voice meek.

” I’m done already… ”

” Better… “Jennet mumbled as she made sure to keep her eyes away from Naya.

Her last encounter with Rhys was not a pleasant one and she wished he never summoned her.

She now hated Naya more than ever as she couldn’t fathom what the vampire Lord wanted with a useless mute slave girl that he went as far as threatening to take her life, the next time she tried anything with Naya.

She left so scared as she knew he meant business.

That’s why she’s been avoiding Naya as far as she could.

Jennet’s demeanor was icy cold, and Naya could feel the tension in the air. She knew that Jennet was upset with Keira, but she couldn’t help but feel that Jennet was actually angry because of her.

She could feel the hatred.

“Come with me,” Jennet said, giving Keira a stern look. Keira nodded and followed her out of the room. Naya watched them go, feeling uncomfortable about Jennet’s change of attitude. What happened to her?
