Chapter 10. – Prunes make you laugh and forgive


Doflamingo just sat there and let his blood flow. His chest, shoulder and arms were a mess. I clawed, bit and sucked his essence out. He didn't even flinch. Just stared at me.

˝WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU? WHY DON'T YOU FEEL PAIN!?˝- I finally lost it and shouted. How dare he deny me my right. He had to feel it. See what I've been through.

˝I deserve it˝- was all he said. I stared at him. I'm sure my eyes and my hair must have changed now. I did eat after all.

˝Why do you do this?˝- my voice was small as I shifted in the bathtub. The water was crimson around me. I caught my reflection on the water and cursed. Blood red eyes, long fangs, blood smeared everywhere and long crimson hair. I had showed him my true face.

˝WHY DON'T YOU MOVE?! SCREAM? ANYTHING!˝- I couldn't take it anymore. I was pissed and ready to kill him.

˝Cause now we're even˝- Doflamingo said and got up. I glared at him and his bloodied body. ˝Finally˝ - he said and smiled a little. ˝Join me for lunch?˝

˝FUCK YOU! And give me Natascha back your creep is noisy!˝- I have indeed found Sidney a few times in my clothes sniffling around. I snorted and breathed out. It looked like a pout and Doflamingo chuckled.

˝Finally the fire's back..I shall tell her to return.˝- with that he left my bathroom and reminded me just how cold the water was. I shivered and turned on hot water – I might as well finish this bath.

I started laughing because my mind showed me the most ridiculous image – a bloody shriveled prune. I need to get out of this water.


I heard her laugh from the bathroom. Has she lost it? The water stopped running and a few curses could be heard. Noup she's back. I grinned to myself and caught my reflection in the window.

Good job Princess, a bear is more precise fufufufu.

She didn't exactly reject me, which was good. I need to gain her trust again. I pulled a small box from my pants and opened it. A silver ring with a bloody rubin. The one Vergo took by mistake. I rolled my eyes at the memory. He came with it stuck to his cheek.

I'll give her this later it will be step one for me to redeem.


˝Young mistress!˝- I heard a familiar voice ask. I rushed from the bathroom half clothed and saw Natascha's eyes bulge. Ups I forgot to put my top.

˝Natascha! You're okay!˝- I yelled and she smiled.

˝Of course, the young master switched mine and Sidney's schedules˝- My eye twitched.

˝So basically you just served him instead of me?˝

˝Yes, may I help you with your hair?˝- she mentioned at my wet hair and I nodded. That small fucker. First he makes me bleed, than isolates me than does THAT and now I hear it was all switched. I am getting a migraine and I am hungry. Blood and food.

Wait.

I didn't slip and lost control while I was feeding!

˝Natascha? Have you heard something strange in here?˝˝

˝No young mistress˝ - she combed my hair and hummed.

˝I thought we agreed that you won't call me like that?˝ - I felt her movements stop

˝I AM SORRY YOUNG Mi- I mean Shiva-sama! Please punish me as you please˝ - she bowed in front of me and sniffled. I see she's unharmed and her old odd self.

˝There's no need just fill me in with what happened here. Who were those men?˝ - she grinned at me and continued to mess with my hair. I had managed to put a top so she didn't stare at my breasts. I didn't see why it was a so special thing because we were both girls until I saw her chest. It was smaller than mine.

˝They work with the young master for...˝ - she stopped and I turned to her. She was chewing her lip.

˝It's alright, you can tell me˝ -i smiled to her and she nodded.

˝They work for the Yonko Kaidou˝- WHAT? HE WORKS FOR HIM? My eyes must have been huge because Natascha threw a fit ˝SHIVA-SAN OH MY GOD ARE YOU OKAY?!˝

˝I'm okay I was just surprised. Was HE here?˝- Natascha shook her head.

˝He doesn't visit Dessrosa, the young master goes and sometimes is gone for a long time˝- she started to braid my hair.

˝Does he come back in one piece or?˝

˝Sometime's injured but ..˝

˝But what?˝

˝He's always distant when he returns..˝ - she said and finished with my hair. And now he lost some of his crew. I felt guilty out of the sudden.

˝When is lunch?˝

˝It should be done now, would you follow me to the dinning hall?˝

˝Yes please˝


The doors opened and I saw Doflamingo with his glasses, bandaged up and sitting on his usual spot. He was holding a glass with red wine and staring at it. I marched to him and sat next to him. His head immediately rose and he looked at me. I shrugged and put my napkin in my lap.

Sidney entered the room with our plates and almost dropped them. I raised an eyebrow at him and but he stared at Doflamingo.

˝What's bothering you? That she sat next to me or my bandages? Either way it's her fault fufufufu˝ - I glared at him. ˝It's the truth my princess˝

˝You caused it and I still haven't forgiven you˝

˝I know Shiva˝ - his voice was strained and I mentally slapped myself. Remember what you wanted to do...

Sidney placed our plates and excused himself. Bright green soup – I hope it's peas. Doflamingo stared at his plate as well.

˝What the hell is this?˝

˝I want sushi˝

˝Brilliant! SIDNEY!˝ - he yelled in his usual energetic voice ˝Take this and bring us sushi˝

˝Young master I..˝

˝Ffufufu no buts now go with this slimes˝

˝Peas soup young master˝

˝Fufufufu you think I eat stuff like that?˝- Doflamingo nodded and I looked in Sid's direction siding with Doflamingo.

˝My apologies young master, I will come shortly with the sushi ˝ - he turned and went to the kitchen. Silence fell.

˝Shiva here˝- My head snapped to him as he put a small velvet blue box in front of me. Cold sweat run across ym spine. A ring, a proposal? What?

I opened it and screamed. Cursed. Screamed again. Doflamingo was having a blast and laughed the whole time.

˝WHERE!?HOW?! I˝- I started breathing heavily and almost fell out of my chair. He caught me and I jumped on him hugging him. Ignored the bandages, my promises and my goal. Non of it was irrelevant I had it back – the ring of our ancestors. I could go back home.

˝It's a long story. Listen there's something I need to tell your about your home..˝ - he said and something in his voice told me it wasn't good.

˝Your homeland is...
