The morning was as usual as ever, but this time you awoke earlier then Lady Dimitrescu.
You straightened yourself up and looked over to her, she was sleeping peacfully in your presence. You smiled giving her a soft kiss on her shoulders and then stood up, leaving the room quietly.
You walked down the castles hallways and warmed yourself up next to a fireplace, hearing a buzzing sound approach you.
"Thats a nice nightgown you got there, Y/N~" Cassandra stroke her hand over it.
"It has Mothers wonderful stitch pattern~" she giggled and walked around you, continuing to observe the nightgown.
"I still don't understand, how you made mother..." she stopped and blushed a bit.
"Yes?" you smiled, knowing what she wanted to say but she just couldn't get it out.
"Uhg! Don't smile at me like that!" she hissed.
"Well, then finish your sentence~" you teased her.
She groaned, rolling her eyes,
"You made Mother like you..." she said quietly.
"What was that? I'm pretty sure I didn't quite get what you said" you smiled, teasing her even more.
Cassandra crossed her arms and looked away,
"Alright, alright! You made Mother love you! Is that what you wanted to hear?!" she yelled, frustrated.
You smiled, satisfied at your victory.
"Thanks, that's exactly what I wanted to hear" you pat her head and walked away from her, going into the wine room to get Lady Dimitrescu some of her precious wine.
"It's weird knowing that these were one of my coworkers once..." you shook your head and searched for a fancy wine bottle that you see Alcina always takes a sip from.
"Alright I guess this is the right one" you took the bottle from the small blood filled tub and cleaned it up with a cloth, that was neatly placed next to it.
As you made your way back to her room you saw a scratch on the wall, it resembled a knifes scratch. You moved your one hand over it, realising it had also some fresh blood on it.
"This is...weird..." you looked around, trying to find any more hints to this scratch.
"I'll definitely have to tell her about this" you opened the door to her room and entered it, closing the door behind you. She was still asleep, so you walked over to her vanity, pulling out the crimson wine glass she always drinks from out of her drawer, pouring in some wine.
You heard her groan behind you, the smell of the wine made her wake up. You turned around and brought her the glass of wine, she smiled at you, with her sleepy eyes.
"Good morning" you greeted her.
She took the wine glass from you and took a small sip out of it,
"Good morning my dear, I hope you had a comfortable night~" she yawned and pat your head.
"I did. I hope you did as well"
She sat up and stretched herself, then looked back at you,
"Having you in my arms that night, was the most comfortable I have ever been~" she gave you a kiss on your forehead and stood up, putting her wine glass down on the vanity. Lady Dimitrescu looked at you and lifted your head with her finger,
"Is there something you want to tell me, Y/N~" she smiled.
You nodded and tried to explain the scratch on the wall.
