3 Cream for wound

Anna POV 　　Waking up to the chirping of birds, I opened my eyes slowly. I pushed the thick blanket from my body and sat down on the bed. My eyes scanned the environment to see I was in my room. Memories of what happened last night flooded inside my head and I brought my hand to cover my mouth from yawning. My body felt heavy as if I had overworked myself overnight. 　　At the thought of what Katherine did to me yesterday, tears flooded in my eyes. I looked at the birds chirping near my window and I shook my head sadly. If only she could treat me like her sister. 　　Suddenly, the door opened and the maids trooped in. They prepared my bath and lay the gown I would be wearing for today. Even though I was living a life of luxury in here, i was deeply sad at the way I was treated. 　　I turned around for the maids to help me pull my gown and when the dress fell down to my feet, Hannah gasped in shock. 　　“Milady!” She screamed. 　　“What?” I turned to look her. Hannah was the only maids who treated me like a normal human being in this house. 　　“There is a big bruise on your back.” She replied. 　　It must have been the time Katherine pushed me against the wall. 　　“Ignore it and continue.” I told her calmly. 　　“Milady but—” 　　“Do what you are told to do.” I chimed and stepped into the bathtub to have my hot bath. When the water touched my back, I groaned in pains. 　　Once I was done bathing, the maids served me breakfast. I ate the food alone in my room and stayed looking at the bright sky. When I was tired of staying indoors, I walked outside the room to take some books from the library to read. 　　The library was a small room with different kind of books one could find. Because the room was always dark during the day and night, candles were placed at the corners to keep the room bright. 　　When I heard a small sound coming from behind, I turned around to see Katherine with the man named Jack. Her back was pressed against the cold wall and he kissed her gently. 　　My eyes widened to see that Katherine was having a secret affair with the man who claimed to be her mate. I know he wouldn’t hesitate to send her out of the house if he caught her this time. 　　“What are you doing here?” Katherine raised her head to look at me, her eyes engulfed with lust. A small frown came to rest on her lips as she pulled away from the kiss. 　　Not wanting what happened last night to repeat itself again, I slightly bowed my head. “It wasn’t my intention to interrupt you. I only came here to pick the books I will be reading.” 　　“And you are still standing watching us?” Her frown deepened as she stared at me. When I looked down, I noticed Jack’s hand trailed upwards and he squeezed her breast, making me annoyed. If Katherine hadn’t given him the permission, he wouldn’t have had the audacity to come up here in the castle. Wasn’t Katherine contented with the love King Aiden showered on her? 　　“This is the library. What if a maid walked in and caught you che—” I paused to think if I am using the right words. With the way Jack was kissing her neck and face, it got me irritated. I don’t care if she would hit me across my face again or break my leg. Right now, I care about our reputation. What will people say when they finds out what she does in secret? Shame and disgrace would be brought upon her and it would not only affect her but me too. Nobody would want to marry us again because of what Katherine did to the Lycan King. 　　“I think you should do whatever you are doing right now in closed doors and do not bring my name out when someone catches you.” I warned her. 　　“Who is she?” Jack asked and he turned to look at me. “Is she jealous?” He smiled. 　　“You can join if you don’t mind.” He licked his lips. 　　“She’s my sister!” Katherine yelled, not liking how he said those words to me. 　　“She look beautiful.” He commented. 　　Not liking the way he was looking at me like a bitch, I bowed my head. “Excuse me.” 　　Before the man could say more, I left the library. 　　When I reached my room I locked the door and turned around to see King Aiden. I jumped up in shock upon seeing him in my room. Did he follow me down here? Oh goodness! 　　Did he see Katherine and Jack in the library? I pursed my lips, thinking of the right words to say right now. 　　“How did you get in here?” I asked, placing my hand on my beating chest. 　　“I have been here for a few minutes.” He replied with a small smile. 　　“How?” I asked and then he brought out a spare keys. 　　“I know you are surprised but I have the keys of every room in this castle.” He replied. 　　“So.....” When I thought back to what happened last night, I closed my eyes for a moment. He actually kissed me and worse he was my mate. How am I supposed to cope in this house knowing fully that my mate is my sister’s fiancé. 　　“Why are you here?” I questioned. 　　“I brought you something.” He replied. 　　“I don’t want anything from you, please leave.” I opened the door for him to leave but he didn’t budge. 　　He reached into his pocket and brought out a small jar. Was this what he brought for me? 　　“Step closer.” He said calmly. 　　“For what?” I raised a brow at his question. I stood near the door in case he tries to do anything stupid again. At least i would be able to run away from here. 　　“I know what you are thinking. Don’t worry I won’t hurt you.” He smiled, opening the jar and scooped out some of the cream. 　　“It’s a cream for wound. The maids told me you hurt your back.” He said. 　　The maids? Was it Hannah? No she wouldn’t do that. It was obviously those other maids who likes to gossip a lot. 　　“Now......., tell me how did you hurt your back? Don’t tell me that the kiss we had last night made you dizzy and you fell down the stairs?” He looked down at me. 　　At his words, I rolled my eyes. 　　“Step closer let’s put this on your back.” He covered the jar and put it in his pocket. 　　“Please leave.” I opened the door widely for him. If Katherine sees I and King Aiden together, I will be a dead meat. 　　“Let me help you rub this on your back.” He pleaded. 　　“I am not joking. Please leave before someone sees you in here.” I said to him. 　　He took a step forward and I took one step backward with a frown. “Don’t come any closer. Just leave, please.” 　　“You are my mate.” He whispered. I frowned and shook my head not wanting to hear anything from him. 　　When he took another step closer, I pushed him with my hands. “Go now!” 　　When he saw how things were going, he nodded his head slowly and left the room. I sighed and slumped on my bed.
