Sold to a Prince!

"Didn't our plan go well yesterday? We didn't even have to serve that Priscella bitch. So why are you still upset?" Jenny asked.

"Ughh… Don't talk to me about that rich slut. Always clinging to his highness so shamelessly."

"Sorry, dear. I know that she whipped you last time for some stupid reason."

"Bah! Don't remind me about it. I am already ticked off plenty by that damned slave."

"Who? Sylvia?" Jenny furrowed her brows. She didn't understand why her friend would be so upset about such a sweet and gentle girl.

"That bitch has a tongue by the way. She was talking back to me arrogantly just now."

"I think she slept with his highness. I saw her coming out of the east tower this morning."

"She was even wearing the same clothes."

"Ha? Really? But that doesn't sound very believable? His highness is…" Jenny's voice trailed on, unable to believe Ana's words.

"Heh. You are too naive, Jenny. His highness is also a man. That slut is way too talented."

"I bet her pure and innocent appearance is all an act. She is just acting docile."

"Do you know what most men like? A weak woman that he can protect! I bet that slut is trying to play that part."

"Ah… I guess that makes sense." Jenny absentmindedly nodded, but then she abruptly turned around to ask. "Why are you suddenly concerned about his highness?"

"Have you finally decided to take your naughty eyes off of my Theo?" She winked.

"Eh? Get lost. I still have dibs on Theo. Don't you dare seduce him first!" 

"I was simply stating what happened today morning to you. How can people like us even have eyes on his highness?"

"I would rather marry a castle guard than become a plaything for a man above my status. Hmph." Ana angrily retorted.

"Ok. Alright, Miss pretty Ana. Sorry for my eagerness. Ha Ha." Jenny giggled and winked. "Theo is all yours. Feel better now?"

"Heh. Even if you didn't say so, I am already feeling better. He He. I got my revenge." Ana smirked.

"Eh? What are you talking about?" Jenny did not understand what her friend did. 

She couldn't help but slightly worry. Her friend was not a bad person but she did have a small dark side to her.

"I sent her to the stables. He He." 

"Now all I have to do is wait for that dainty little slut to get maimed and kicked around."

"Or perhaps she would lose a limb or two and become an invalid."

"Heh. Then let me see how his majesty would be still interested in her."

Jenny almost gasped in shock after hearing this. "Ana! This is serious! You shouldn't have done this." 

"You know how dangerous that place is. After all, we don't rear any regular domestic animals in there."

"Every single one of those beasts is dangerous. Especially…" Jenny shook her head, not wanting to even think about it. 

"What will do if his highness finds out and decides to punish you if something goes wrong???"

"Come quick. Maybe she hasn't gone there yet. We can go and get her back and prevent anything from happening."

Jenny tried to hammer some sense to the woman and dragged her, but Ana stood still like a stone.

"Oh come on. Don't be such a wuss. His majesty probably wouldn't even care. He already slept with her. Why would he still care?"

"But Ana…" Jenny hesitated. She had a feeling that this was not going to end well.

"Ok. Ok. Let's stop talking about this. There is still a lot of work." This time around Anna dragged the poor conflicted maid and the two of them went back to their chores.

They had their hands full maintaining such a big castle with so few maids and servants. 

So they couldn't really afford to stand around and chat all day.

Meanwhile…

Sylvia hurried over her to her room and quickly changed out of her yesterday's dress before she could run into someone else, giving them as well a chance to comment on the obvious.

Thanks to the devil's shenanigans, her reputation was as it is taking multiple hits today. She didn't want to make it worse.

As she was busily selecting what to wear today, Sylvia paused and hesitated a bit. 

"Ummm… Did Ana really mean it? Should I go to the stables and take a look?"

"Mrs. Jane has never mentioned to me such a thing before. Should I just go anyways?" She contemplated her options for a few seconds before deciding to head out. 

Though she was sure that their relationship was already ruined, she didn't want to piss off Ana more by not doing something she had explicitly ordered her to.

Sylvia then looked at her clothes again and picked out something which was dull and faded. She didn't want to ruin any of the good-looking dresses by dirtying them in the stables.

Even though she had never attended to a horse or visited a stable, she could somewhat guess the type of chores in there.

She would have to probably clean out the dung, feeding the animals some hay, or perhaps even give the animals a bath and some grooming.

The more Sylvia thought about it, the more she looked forward to it. She had never had such an experience before and she had always wanted to pet a horse.

They were such majestic creatures! She thought.

So the young woman quickly changed into her new set of clothes and hummed and walked out of her room in a cheerful mood.

Though she had that small run-in with Ana earlier, she was still in a good mood and had a nice smile on her face.

As long as she didn't run into the devil himself, it was a good day, and Sylvia didn't want to sour these rare good days with such trivial things.

So with a small smile on her lips, she wandered out, crossing the gardens, onto the big stretch of land surrounding the main castle.
