That night, she slept soundly, so soundly that the next day she overslept. One of the maids woke her up rudely by pulling back the sheet and speaking to her in a scornful voice.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWake up! How long do you plan to keep sleeping?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Opening her eyes, Abril found herself facing a maid who looked at her with hatred.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet up,\u201d the maid said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril got up, not wanting to argue with the maid.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhere\u2019s the other maid?\u201d She asked.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cShe\u2019s sick. I\u2019ll be attending to you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s not necessary. You can go.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The maid threw Abril\u2019s clothes on the bed and said, \u201cFine! I didn\u2019t want to serve you anyway.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The maid left the room. Abril took her dress and got changed, wishing never to see that maid\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>again.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>During breakfast, Abril saw the same maid again. She behaved politely, but her gaze was still full of hatred. As Abril got up to go to her classes and passed by the maid, she stuck her foot out and\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril fell.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Falling to the floor, Abril looked at the maid, but she acted as if she hadn\u2019t done anything. Other maids helped her up and asked if she was alright.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril\u2019s knees ached, but otherwise, she was fine.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you okay?\u201d Sirius walked in on her and asked, seeing her. \u201cWhat are you doing? It\u2019s late.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry, I overslept.\u201d Abril replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLet\u2019s go.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril followed Sirius to the room where she received her magic lessons. He handed her a book and said, \u201cI hope the princess will pay attention to me today.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFrom now on, I will.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sirius thought it strange that the princess was so cooperative and asked, \u201cDid something happen to make the princess change her mind?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>1\/4\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&lt;An evil maid\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis Majesty promised me he would reduce my lessons if I paid attention.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Points\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Sirius continued her lesson. When it was over, Abril went home and devoted herself to tending her garden. That night, in the king\u2019s chambers, Abril waited for Alessandro to arrive. He arrived late, as usual. Seeing that she was awake, he greeted her and asked,\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHello princess, what are you still doing awake?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was waiting for Your Majesty.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat for?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI haven\u2019t forgotten that I must give Your Majesty an heir.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA few days ago, you seemed to have forgotten.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was upset then with Your Majesty.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd now you\u2019re not?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNo. Your Majesty has kept his promise, well, halfway.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro approached Abril and asked, \u201cSo, do you intend to fulfill your wifely duties tonight?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, unless Your Majesty is tired, in which case we could just sleep.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not.\u201d He replied with a smile.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro leaned in to kiss her and said, \u201cI suppose the time has come to fulfill our obligation as\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>husband and wife.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro continued kissing her, his hands circling her waist. Abril stood still, her arms at her sides. Alessandro said, \u201cIf you stay so still, it will be boring.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut Lady Elizabeth told me I should just stay still, and Your Majesty would do the rest.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDid she really tell you that?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes,\u201d Abri replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro took her in his arms and carried her to the bed. He laid her down gently, settled on top of her, and took her lips again. As he devoured her mouth, he said, \u201cYou can touch me too, if you\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>want.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril raised her hand, sinking her fingers into his hair, feeling its softness. Alessandro was surprised that she could do that and asked, \u201cWhy do you only touch my hair?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>An evil maid\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know. I just wanted to touch it. Does Your Majesty not like it?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not that, it\u2019s just\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro sighed deeply and said, \u201cIt doesn\u2019t really matter.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Points\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>And he continued kissing her, enjoying the softness and warmth of her lips. His hands moved down her neck to her breasts. He squeezed them, and Abril complained, \u201cThat hurts.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry,\u201d he replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro caressed Abril\u2019s breasts gently and asked, \u201cIs this better?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat feels strange. Why are you touching me there?\u201d She questioned.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause they\u2019re soft.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut\u2026\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro silenced her with a kiss and said, \u201cYou talk too much.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro continued caressing her body and kissing her lips, giving short kisses that gradually became deeper, something that began to frighten Abril. She began to tremble. Alessandro\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>noticed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He moved off her and said, \u201cActually, I\u2019m very tired, and I have to get up early tomorrow because I have to go out and inspect the kingdom. It\u2019s best to leave it for another day.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril was relieved, as she didn\u2019t feel ready. Alessandro rested his head on the pillow and said, \u201cI\u2019ll be gone for a few days. While I\u2019m gone, you don\u2019t have to stay in the palace if you don\u2019t want to, but you must continue with your magic lessons.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril smiled broadly and said, \u201cReally?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYes, but you should hide your happiness a little.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m sorry.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter. You had better get some sleep.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril got under the covers, rested her head on the pillow, and said, \u201cGoodnight, Your Majesty.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Alessandro turned off the lights with his magic, plunging the room into darkness. \u201cGoodnight, princess,\u201d he replied.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The next day, when Abril woke up, the king was gone. She was about to get up when she heard a knock on the door. It must be the maid who helped her get dressed in the mornings. Abril gave her permission to enter. However, when she saw who had entered, she wished she would leave that\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>3\/4\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>An evil maid\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>+25 Points\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>very instant. It was the same maid who had been rude to her the day before. She looked at her\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>with hatred and said, \u201cGet changed, or you\u2019ll be late.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI told you it wasn\u2019t necessary for you to come.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe head maid sent me. If I don\u2019t do my job, they\u2019ll fire me.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That maid helped Abril get dressed and said, \u201cI\u2019ll do your hair. Sit down.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Abril sat on a chair in front of a mirror. She found it strange that the maid wanted to help her with her hair, but she did as she was asked. While she was combing her hair, she pulled at it, making her cry out in pain.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStop complaining so much. It\u2019s your fault for having such tangled hair,\u201d the maid said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>When the maid finished combing her hair, Abril had a headache from all the pulling, and she swore never to let her comb her hair again.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>5\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>He Threw Away and Sold to the Devil 24 &lt;An evil maid\u00a0 +25 Points\u00a0 An evil maid\u00a0 Abril was very [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[87],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29786","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-his-regret-their-knees-novel"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29786","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29786"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29786\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29786"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29786"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29786"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
