Ascension of the Monster Queen

Nessa didn't want to be a maid, but she didn't complain because it would pay her and give her a chance to find out what the guy who was now her boss and whom she wanted to smite was up to.

The girl knew it would be difficult, but she wanted to see the king because it would help her understand what was going on and whether or not the king was truly sick.

Later that day, while working, the prince passed by the living area and wh he saw Nessa he peeked at her.

"Well, I have to say, you seem to be doing well on your first day, that's good, better than most at the very least," He said, and her eyes narrowed.

'I wish I could kill him, he's getting on my nerves,' She thought as she smiled at him.

"Do you need anything, your highness?" She asked as he approached her and was about to touch her, but she moved back, slightly.

"Oh? Is it going to be a problem if I touch you?" He sighed as her eyes narrowed and she clched her right fist.

"It's fine, I'm going to a meeting so I won't be back until midnight, it's already getting close to night so I need you to stay for the night shift and you will be assigned a task as well and you cannot refuse," He said.

"A task?" She asked.

"Yes, you are assigned to take care of the king, there is a list by his bedside as to what you need to do for him, he can move so don't worry about that, but I am warning you, don't take too long to do the assigned task, there is also another thing," He responded as she stared at him wondering what more he wants her to do and why he was being so stern, only increasing her suspicions more.

"Is there anything else, your highness?" She inquired as she lowered her head and he leaned in closer.

"Smite him if you want, this guy is annoying," Miss Notice suggested.

"If I tell you to do something, you better not ev think about refusing me, not as long as you're in this castle and working for me, I hope you understand, do you, Nessa?" He asked.

"I do, your highness," She responded.

"Good, I will see you later on," He said th left and she gnashed her teeth as the head maid which was the girl that showed her a earlier approached her.

"Be careful, he has his eyes set on you," She warned and Nessa glanced at her.

"Does he do that all the time?" Nessa inquired, and the girl stared at her before chuckling.

"No, do you undervalue your own beauty?" Nessa smiled nervously as the girl asked.

"That hair of yours too, damn, come on, let me show you to the king's room," The girl said as she walked away and Nessa sighed th followed her.

"She is not wrong, you can seduce a lot," Miss Notice said and Nessa's cheeks flushed.

'I get it, but I don't want it sung to me, damn,' Nessa thought as they walked up to the castle's second floor and came to a huge and gold door, which the maid oped.

"Here you are, it's already night, just get it over with and you'll be fine," The girl said before leaving and Nessa tered the large and opult room.

"Who are you?" Someone asked, and she flinched, th turned a to see a man in his thirties sitting on the bed, th he drew the curtains from the side of the bed, and she peeked at him, th he smiled and coughed.

"Your highness?" She asked.

"Are you new?" He asked and she nodded.

"You are a pretty young lady, don't get too close," He said and she smiled after seeing how kind he was.

"Thank you, but I have to take care of you," She replied as she approached the bed and collected the list on the bed, th sighed as she read through a few medications.

"Have you be sick for a long time?" She inquired.

"Uh... I got sick a few months ago, and I've heard I might not live long," He replied and her brows furrowed.

"May I stroke your hair?" He chuckled wh she asked.

"What's your name?" He asked.

"Nessa," She responded.

"Nessa, my name is Nick, nice to meet you, and yes, you may," He said smiling as she placed her hand against his hair.

"Is the sickness that bad, Miss Notice?" Nessa inquired via telepathy.

"Something is not right here, his body appears okay, but I don't think it's a sick strong ough to kill him, but he is very weak, he will be fine, I suggest he stop taking those medications, master, they are not good for him and won't do him any good, in fact, it seems to be a reason he is getting weaker," Miss Notice replied, and Nessa sighed before smiling at the king and moving her hand away from him.

"You have soft hair," She commted.

"Thank you, Nessa," He said as he stretched off and fell asleep on the bed, and she looked at him, gnashed her teeth, feeling sorry for him, and Nessa looked at the medications.

Nessa knew the medications were not helping the king, which convinced her that the perverted prince was up to no good, so she snuck away the medications and switched them, th returned to the room and placed them exactly how they had be.

She replaced them with mostly vitamins and ones to help the king regain his strgth and they were mixed with a bit of her healing potion.

Nessa could tell by the man's aura and demeanor that he was a kind and gtle person who joyed reading books and gazing out at the sky which was more than just ough for her to help him and that's what she intded to do not because of the goal she came to the kingdom for but because she felt sorry for him and no one deserved to be treated like that, especially an innoct.
