A heavy onslaught of rain pelted down upon Rory Sinclair and her horse; the former was the eldest of her three siblings, and at the moment she was highly irritated that her sister wasn't there to stop the rain, nor was her brother there to warn them that there would be a deluge of rain.

Then again it had been her who and proposed the idea of separating after all, no matter how much you live your family you are bound to get irritated. Which is what happened to the Sinclairs.

A small smile made its way across the brunette's face as she came to the gates of the Palace of Versailles, she was met by the guards.

"I'm here for Mary Queen of Scots I've been employed as one of her ladies" at this the guards moved out of her way. Rory smirked as she dismounted her horse and handed the reins to one of the guards. Compulsion was one of her favourite things it was so simple, after all that's what she had done to the queen after encountering the queen in her carriage several days before.

Although Rory was not indisposed to slaughtering any human when she was hungry, she knew it was best not to do so. Considering her wish to reside here for a year or two.

No matter how many places Rory and her sibling had visited the brunette would never cease to be amazed by the art throughout the castle.

It had been a few months now, and she felt as if she had settled into the ways of the court and, whilst there, she had gained a deep respect and friendship with the queen.

Many people thought of Rory as a mystery, she had turned up on a gloomy day with a bright personality. she had never been mentioned by Mary or her ladies but when questioned, they all had the same memories of her. So who were the members of the court to question the queen of Scotland herself.

Suddenly Rory's chamber doors were flown open as a suspiciously happy Lola and Kenna entered the room.

"Have you heard, there is to be a new duke, residing at court for several months, and as I have been led to believe he is rather handsome," Lola said whilst giggling, Kenna nodded vigorously at the word handsome before adding,

"It's true, I saw him not moments before Lola came to find me"

Rory let out a huff of amusement as Kenna made her way around the place finding the three most beautiful dresses for the three of them to wear.

"Now we must make haste otherwise the duke will surely be swept away by mama's hoping to marry their daughters of"  Rory raised her eyebrows before responding

"Ahh so instead he shall be swept away by three of the queens ladies desperate to find a match" Kenna feigned mock insult before giggling and going to get changed

As the three ladies made their way into the ball room, Kenna began to make a beeline for the duke but was cut of by Mary.

"Mary" Rory said kindly as she bowed

"Please stop, being it makes me feel like Catherine, Secondly Kenna, Lola you two are here early" she smiled as she put to and two together

"The duke is this way let me introduce you to him"
The ladies grabbed onto the heretics arms in anticipation as the lord was brought into their view by Mary

"Francis, allow me to introduce my ladies to the duke" at this Francis peered around Mary to see one of his favourite people in the court.
