Lucy Reborn - 62 She Dares!

No wonder Selena is so angry! Lucy narrows her eyes, and shields out the thoughts. Her empathy sweeps throughout Jing Palace. Every smug or gleefulness was caught and narrowed in on.

A guard in the barracks, Lady Isabella, and a maid in the Outer Ring. Lucy touches Lady Isabella’s thoughts (Once this account book is done, I can send for Big Brother Liam so he can see how Lena has grown)

Not her, then. Lucy turns her mind to the guard and curls her lip.   The guard was simply gleeful at getting away with forcing a commoner girl into his bed.   Scum. Utter scum.

(In a week or so, it will be prime time to accuse Concubine Meng Lani of adultery. With such widespread ‘facts’, the Master will have to take action in order to save face)

Lucy touches the mind of the other woman in that courtyard and scowls. (Once that trash dies, her brat will be easy pickings. Trash like Meng Lani doesn’t deserve to the concubine of a beggar!) The contempt in Concubine Sora’s mind nearly gagged Lucy. Bitterness, hatred, rage, contempt, and envy. It was a toxic mix.

(Why is that trash so favored! Why does Highness only spend his nights with Princess Jing, Lady Zi or that trash? That trash is nearly more favored than the Princess!)

Lucy’s eyes glow, wind swirling around her, knocking the chairs and table in the gazebo down. Shadows embrace her body gently, as Lucy jumps on the walls of the Revival Butterfly Courtyard. Jumping down, Lucy races toward the courtyard of that bitch. Running, the wind swirls beneath her feet, pushing at her back.      Lucy’s feet no longer touched the ground, her skirts flying.

A firm hand caught her. The wind disappears, her hair and skirts settling, the shadows on her body slipping away as Selena held her by the nape of her neck.

“Just what do you think you’re doing, Little Mistress?” Selena asks with narrowed eyes. “Ahh,” Lucy says, tense. Damn it!  I’m in so much trouble!

Selena sighs and wraps shadows around them. Rushing through Jing Palace with Aura magic blazing, does this child have any sense at all! What if the guards cut her down, thinking her an assassin? What if her innate awakening was discovered? Does she want to be assassinated?

In her bedroom, Selena dumps Lucy on her bed and glares at the toddler.

Her innate awakening is considered a Clan secret That’s how dangerous it is for others to know she can use her powers before her Awakening. But this child! She ran out, practically daring someone to see her! Selena fumes.

Seeing Little Mistress’ eyes glowing white with Light Aura, Selena frowns. “Quick that! You aren’t allowed to show your powers off until your awakening!” Selena orders. Lucy calms herself, releasing her light magic.  “Why? Big Sis Rose has powers, and nobody cares,” Lucy says, looking up at Selena.

Selena scowls. “You are two, not six. Only children whose powers are too strong to be dormant can use their power before being Awakened! Do you want to announce to the Empire that you have strong powers? Have you considered how this would affect breaking your betrothal or the reactions of the Imperial Family?” Selena rants.

Selena takes a deep breath. “Little Mistress. If people outside the Rimes Clan discover that you have Awakened on your own. Some will want to steal or hurt you. So it’s a secret!” Selena says, putting her finger on her lips. Lucy nods. Selena might scream if she shook her head.

Lucy waits quietly while Selena paces, and gently touches her mind (One. Two. Three. Four) Lucy coughs. I drove her into counting to keep her temper. Well, It’s a first. Not one I particularly want, but a first nonetheless.

While Selena fumes, and paces Lucy turned her mind to Concubine Sora. Selena just did me a huge favor. I could have ruined everything. Just rushing in to beat Concubine Sora won’t do anything. I must clear Mommy of these hateful rumors.

Her head ached. The reason many people believed the rumors were due to Mom’s quick second pregnancy. It must be known that years tend to pass between each pregnancy for his Lady Consorts, and wives, even with Papa sleeping with them every week.  His concubines had even worse fates. Some of them had never been pregnant despite being visited once a month, and in the Jing Palace for over 10 years.

How to discredit that rumor that Mom slept with someone else? Lucy bits her lip, her heart heavy. Her impulse led to this. Maybe if I say Mom gets pregnant easily because she’s a null! She doesn’t have the magic to clash with Papa’s magic. That it’s easier for her to catch so to speak.

The cursed rumor was hopeless. With her having Void Hunger, it’s impossible to refute.  Lucy stares at the painting of Aunt Thea. It hung besides her bed, where she would see it each morning. Just have to put up with the cursed rumor, but…

Lucy shivers, thinking of the toxic madness that was Concubine Sora’s mind.

That bitch won’t let it go. She will just do something else once I fix this.

Concubine Sora. Concubine Sora. Concubine Sora.

Lucy’s eyes flash, her lips firming. She should taste her own medicine.
