Chapter 37 The Master’s attitude
Madison’s POV
I walked into the master’s room shivering. To think that he actually wants to see the one singing this song made cold shivers run down my spine. What crime did I commit this time?
I knelt in front of the master visibly shaking while he glared at me like I did something wrong to him.
“Who was singing that song?” The Master’s voice was so cold, and that made me afraid the more.
“I was the one Master” Goosebumps ran down my spine. I was still in panic, and I prayed within myself that he doesn’t punish me.
“Sing, slave” He ordered me, and I nodded my head. I tried singing, but since all eyes were on me, I felt so anxious.
“Please turn off the light Master” I pleaded, and he furrowed his eyebrows.
“Why should I do that? Are you going to give me conditions just because I want you to sing?” He glared hard at me, and I gulped nervously.
“I can’t sing with the light on because of anxiety” I mumbled, and he signalled Axel to switch the light off, and he did.
I started singing, and suddenly everywhere was quiet. That didn’t make me stop singing, I continued singing for few minutes more before I turned to the Master.
I could hear him snore, that was when I found out that he was already fast asleep. Why would he fall asleep when he told me to come and sing for him? Did you really call me in here for him to fall asleep?
“What am I supposed to do? Do I sleep here, or should I just leave his room?” I thought within myself. If I leave this room without him telling me to leave, then I’m definitely going to get into trouble.
I’m a slave, and I have no choice than to watch my Master sleep. I sat on the bare ground close to the Master’s bed, and continued singing. Furthermore, I sang for sometime before I fell asleep despite the fact that I tried as hard as I could to stop myself from sleeping.

One hour later, I didn’t hear the slave singing, and I still didn’t hear the master’s voice. Neither did I hear any groan nor moan coming out from the master’s chambers.
“What’s going on? Did the slave fall asleep? Well, that’s understandable because it’s already late. The slave is bound to fall asleep, but what about the master? Did he also fell asleep?” I thought with a snort.
Of course, I know that’s not possible. For the past few years, the master hardly sleep. I can’t even remember the last time he slept for two hours.
Furthermore, I got up, and walked into the room that was very quiet. Are both of them really asleep?
I turned on the light, and to my greatest surprise, the Master was fast asleep. My jaw became numb the moment I saw him fast asleep. Isn’t this a miracle? How is it possible that the master falls asleep, and he’s sleeping sound and safe?
Madison on the other hand, was lying on the bare ground asleep as well. I felt sorry for the poor girl, but it’s not in my power to tell her to leave the Masters room. I can’t do that, if only I could, I would have told her to go back to her room as soon as possible.
“How did she do it? How did Madison’s song make the master fall asleep? We have tried several things within our powers to cure him of his sleepless nights. We’ve gone to numerous doctors, but there was no solution to his insomnia. Could Madison be a magician? Does it mean that only her song made the master fall asleep?” I continued wondering.
Well, the master has never been able to sleep this sound for god-knows-how-long. He never sleeps more than ten minutes every day, and to make it worse, he only paces around while others sleep.
Seeing him asleep made me begin to wonder what actually happened to him.
“Madison is really affecting the master. I don’t know if this is what we’ve been praying for or not” I mumbled before working away.
Lucien’s POV
The alarm clock rang noisily, and I jerked up from the bed. My eyes went straight to the wall clock hanging on the wall.
“8:15am?” A gasp escaped my mouth. How did this happen? Did I actually sleep? I could remember that I fell asleep around 7:30pm.
“Does this mean that I slept from 7:30pm in the night till 8:15am in the morning? Is this a miracle, or am I just dreaming?” I couldn’t help but wonder.
That was when my eyes caught with Madison’s figure on the ground. She looked so pale, and weak, that I could tell she must have slept late in the night.
I got up from the bed, and carried Madison. I dropped her on my bed, and stared at her for few minutes.
“Axel! Axel!!” I called with a roar, and Axel rushed into my chambers. He bowed slightly, and turned his gaze to me.
“What do you want me to do for you, master?” He asked anxiously.
“Did I sleep last night, Axel?” I asked trying to make sure I wasn’t confused.
“Yes you did Master. You slept immediately Madison sang for you” Axel replied, and I exhaled deeply. I shook my head slightly before speaking again.
Axel stiffens the moment he saw Madison on my bed. He knows I don’t like women lying on my bed no matter who. No woman ever sleeps on that bed not even Emery, my favorite slave.
I turned to Axel, and he lowered his gaze awaiting my order. He knows that I was going to tell to throw her out. I’m sure he’s ready to carry out whatever I tell him to.
“Wrap her up, and take her to her room. Don’t wake her up. Let her rest” I said mildly walking into the inner chambers…..
