Her Duplicate Luna novel Chapter 2

My room was just beside her room so it's easy for her to call me anytime she needed me.

I skip dinner tonight because I'm not very hungry yet. Today is my birthday but I'm not celebrating it, instead, I'm working here all alone by myself.

I put my things down beside my bed. I lie my back on its soft mattress and I feel comfortable about it.  I want to sleep early so that my body and mind would be well prepared for tomorrow's big event.

" Run!" A loud voice called Ariana's attention from afar. She looked around but there's no one to be seen until a white wolf came in front of her, standing with his visible canines.

Ariana was tongue-tied and her legs seem like paralyze. There's a wolf in front of her and she didn't know what to do.

She just closes her eyes when the white wolf moved his legs to prepare for a quick launch but she's wrong. It's not attacking her. He licked her legs and did puppy eyes on her.

Amaya heard a soft whimper from the other room. She quickly got up from her bed to follow the sound of that noise. There are more rooms in the concubine area until she found out that the sounds came from her assistant room Ariana.

She decided to knock but the sound gets louder until she tried to open it and it's no lock. When she finally pushed the door open, she saw Ariana, raising her hands like she's in a fight.

She stops screaming when Amaya shook her shoulders. " Wake up! Wake up!" She said and Ariana woke up from her nightmare. Amaya feels relieved to see that she was already awake and safe.

" Hey, what's wrong with you?" Amaya asked me when she woke me up.

I'm still half asleep while she's talking to me. " What?" I said. I don't know what happened. I just woke up and saw her in front of me. She frowned and stood up.

" You're talking in your sleep you know. Hurry! Quick! Today is the grand day so you have to hurry and prepare my things and dress for the party tonight" she said and left me alone in my room.

I took a deep breath. Today is my second day in the palace and I felt like this is my last day. I want to go back home with my parents because I miss them already but I think they're not happy to see me.

I got up and quickly took a shower when Amaya called me. " Ariana, I'm going to take a bath now! Hurry!"

" Coming!" I said. I hurriedly put on my maid dress and walked inside her room. While I'm on my way, I saw some concubines in the hallway on their own without an assistant. I thought to myself, Amaya was very lucky to be the apple of the eye of the king.

Amaya set an enraged gaze to me when I set off my foot in her quarter.

" You're very lazy! Quick, bath me!" Her fierce voice echoed inside my ears. I just followed her instructions to me and said nothing.

I bathe her, dressed her, and help her to do her make up. This life of mine sucks if I'll stay to be the concubines assistant like this.
