Maria noticed a young lady standing at the pool's edge. She had blue hair that fell over her shoulder and crimson eyes. The lady's attractiveness took her breath away. Although she didn't know what it was, she could sense that the lady was special in some way. It reminded her of the first time she met Markus, but Markus was terrifying.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KjG4sujPs
Maria was perplexed when an idea flashed through her head. She looked around to see whether there was a cabin in the area but found none. She squinted as she glanced up at the lady.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOn1prdcDtO
"Who are you?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0x3PdhX40
"My name is Olga. I'm here to give you a dress." Olga stated softly and sweetly.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡieB3clw7KE
"Who said i needed a dress?" She was even more perplexed.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWiJRj0m71N
"Lord Lucas sent me here. He stated that Lord Markus requires dresses for you.'105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKfoT0CPMO
"Can you tell me who Lord Markus and Lord Lucas are?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZY6zeBaBmN
"He escorted you here, my lady." Olga gave her a friendly grin.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1IOjuR9ft
"Which of them?"
Olga knew the young lady was intrigued and perplexed, so she smiled pleasantly at her again.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwLhLRPei7
"My lady, Lord Markus."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRy7Q85VHv
Maria became engrossed in Olga's lovely grin and was stunned by the smile on her face; her heart skipped a beat when she heard her voice and pondered how she came to be a servant rather than a queen.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjXYc9whQl
"Where are you from?" She inquired.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6RcPKcMtlt
"My lady, the black sea empire."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwvoZgUXBcV
"Black sea?" Maria asked, her face furrowed, "Never heard of such a kingdom," she said to Olga.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDrVphJlQz
"We are really private. Only a few people had heard of it. We dislike interfering with other kingdoms." Olga's voice filled with pride.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZIszurCPyG
"Really?" Maria asked, her face furrowed.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOqDKa0NL3D
Olga gave a nod.
"Explain to me how you thrive in your kingdom without interacting with other kingdoms." She was perplexed. "Did your kingdom have a lot of wealth, resources, warriors, everything?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuI5tRQFQEY
"certainly," she says.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBad34b8var
Maria raised her brow in surprise and amusement.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnyX1cDT7Kr
"The Black Sea is such a vast metropolis; I wish you could go there."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcAXb4zdk5
"Fine." Maria gave a nod. "I'll make a point of going there to see for myself."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YXhfC4fFS
"I was hoping to see you there, my lady." Olga was overjoyed.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpHJ309EDUo
"Do you reside close to this area?"
"Lord Markus has his way to contact us," Olga smiled. "You don't have to worry about it too much." Olga could tell Maria didn't know anything about Markus, and she wasn't in a position to say to her.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwf66RUshB
Maria bit her lower lip; she wanted a response to her query, but she opted not to speak because Olga had told her not to bother. She nodded and urged Olga to drop the dress.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuLQ1Igu1u
"Do you need anything else, My Lady?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPUtFtkHMjy
Maria shook her head, and Olga walked away. Maria stepped out of the water and changed into her nightgown. She walked into the cabin and carefully shut the door behind her. Maria was astonished to see Olga arranging food on a table. She looked around the room for Markus but couldn't find him. She frowned.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguNnNe2Dae
"Where has Markus gone?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLAAAbiCpMU
"Lord Markus is not going to stay here tonight. I'll be right here with you, My Lady." Olga spoke quietly.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡteWnD8GK62
"Why?" Maria was astonished.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3es5wZoa5K
"He had something to attend to. And that's why he'd brought me here?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKJiDnceCWG
Maria sighed in relief but was disappointed. At least, he should have informed her. She thought as she sat on the bed.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpmaATpqtvS
"Are you alright, my lady?"
"yes," Maria said, forcing a smile.
'You must be hungry.'105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFoY7PJsvBE
Maria's pupils dilated as her thoughts returned to the dinner on the table. As the pleasant perfume of the food filled her nose, Maria's mouth started to water; her eyes started to sparkle.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUkALPsqQR6
"Are all of these for me?"105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK0Ok6oOsjo
Maria questioned while gazing at the steak that was looking back at her.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ728ZhzaV3z
Olga chuckled, "Yes, my lady."105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpWGU9ZIn0
Maria eagerly picked up the food from the table and started to eat, gobbling up half of it in one bite and chewing on it like a ravenous beast.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIZB55ZxSpM
In the dungeon,105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uVPfAWrk1
Mary was sweating a lot, her heart racing. In a pitch-black space where she could hardly see herself, she hurled. Her nose filled with the smell of blood, and her ears filled with wailing voices. She felt like she might die from it as her stomach turned in disgust.105Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ893eHpTl2J
She flatly lay on the ground while she started to see vision-like vision.
