Chapter 341: Satisfaction of happiness

Holding the mop in her hand, Rosetta took a look at it before making a similar action the way Eugene had showed her.

Rosetta dipped her mop in the bucket, sloshing it up and down in water. She enjoyed doing it as it seemed fun. Then came to twist the cloth and she watched the water drip. Having never done anything like this before, she felt shivers run down her body at the thought of having to touch it. It was because the cloth looked ragged and old.

Gulping down the icky feeling she felt, Rosetta told herself, 'If I pass through this, Eugene will see me in a new light. I need to do my best!' She finally touched the wet mop and squeezed the water as she scrunched her face.

Eugene, who stood on the other side, watched the vampiress putting her effort and he continued with his work. Who knew that the vampiress would show such determination. He hadn't expected her to touch the mop, but here she was.

The first time he had met her, he had remembered her crying her eyes out while in her drunk state.

"Front and back. Front and back," Rosetta pushed the mop on the floor. "This seems more fun than it looks," she muttered and continued to follow what Eugene had instructed her.

Suddenly feeling empowered by just touching the mop and doing something she had never done before, she used more force and tried to speed up the process. Every now and then, she looked up at Eugene and shyly smiled. They were already a couple! Cleaning together early in the morning, her chest puffed in pride. While the vampiress continued to dream about their future as she worked, she heard something crack and her eyes fell on her mop, which had broken into two parts. The wet mop, and upper side of the wooden stick.

Rosetta's eyes widened. She quickly took a look at Eugene, who hadn't noticed her incompetence. She quickly tried to hide it and held the two ends of the wooden sticks as tight as she could. The last thing she needed was him to dismiss her. It seemed like being a servant wasn't easy, the vampiress thought.

When Eugene turned to look at her, Rosetta stared back at him and heard him say, "Be careful to not step on the wet floor."

Rosetta smiled, "Thank you for taking care of me so that I don't fall."

Eugene pursed his lips as that wasn't the only reason and he said, "You will leave footprints if you walk on it."

Rosetta's happy smile lowered on hearing her beloved's stern voice, "I will keep that in mind." She muttered, "You could have admitted that you are looking after me. Eugene cares about me," and she secretly smiled.

Eve, who stood behind the wall leading to the corridor on the left, took a peek and was glad to see that everything was going well so far. When she felt something soft curl around her ankle, she softly gasped and noticed it was Timotei.

"You scared me, Timotei," Eve whispered to the black cat and raised her finger placing it on her lips.

"Did you think I was a ghost who came back to haunt you and your lover? Let me just turn back to my original self, and I will throw him out. Actually you should turn him into a toad, and I will eat him for dinner," Timotei suggested before chuckling at the idea.

"Vincent?" Eve asked him.

"Where?!" The cat quickly turned worried and looked around to see if the pureblooded vampire was here. He then questioned, "What are you even doing here?"

"Rosetta is working along with Eugene," Eve replied, and Timotei craned his neck forward and noticed the human and the vampiress working in the corridor.

"The disastrous human Romeo and Juliet vampire," Timotei remarked and shook his head.

"Did you ever love anyone when you were a vampire... or a kitty?" Eve tried to hold in the smile when Timotei grimaced at the idea.

"Hmph, no one can make me, Timotei fall in love. To capture my attention is the hardest, as if they would even get a glance from me," the black cat looked proud and boasted, "Do you know how many women used to wait to see me?"

"You must have been a very good looking man," Eve praised him in a low voice. Timotei waved his paw in front of him and responded,

"That goes without saying. I was the most handsome man. There were rumours that I gave a tough competition with the princes in the women's mind," Timotei raised his head back and Eve believed that if he stretched it a little more, he would be able to see what was behind him. "Women are nothing but troublesome creatures. Look at what happened when the King wanted the woman from the sea. It brought his downfall."

Eve took another peek to make sure Eugene and Rosetta were fine, and she then heard Timotei say, "I hear someone's footsteps." She turned her head to look in the direction of where the black cat was looking. The black cat was the first to walk in that direction, and she quickly followed to see if it was a maid.

"There's no one here," Eve remarked, noticing the empty corridor.

"No. Fast and clean footsteps. Too fast as if... it is a thief!" Timotei quickened his paws on the cold marble floor, and after crossing a few more footsteps, they reached near the corridors where they could see the stairs.

"That's not a thief. That's Marceline." The vampiress had a cloak over her head and with some patches of wetness on the cloak, it was obvious that she had been out and was only returning home now.

"Still a thief. Didn't she steal her sister's fangs?" Timotei said in a matter-of-fact tone, and Eve agreed.

Eve wondered where Marceline had been to, and she quickly walked back to where Eugene and Rosetta were to keep them away from trouble.

In the meantime, Rosetta had finished mopping her side of the corridor, and so did Eugene. She murmured in pure happiness, "I did it..."

Eugene noticed how she appeared happier, and now that he knew she wasn't trying to attack him to drink his blood, he noticed how she looked at him like a little girl waiting for approval and praise. He replied,

"It is good for your first time, but next time you will need to move faster than that. Good work, Lady Rosetta."

A child-like smile graced Rosetta's lips. She had cleaned half of the corridor all by herself! She was proud of herself, and Eugene had good words for her!

Too shy to hug him, she wanted to thank him more. Rosetta's feet moved so quickly that neither of the two expected what was going to happen next.

Wanting to get closer to Eugene, the vampiress kicked the bucket of water, which ended up tilting and hitting the floor, while on the other hand, Rosetta wanted to stop it from happening and lost her balance because of the water that spread next to her feet.
