"Lily"
The girl knows that voice, that voice belongs to him.
Tewksbury.
"Lily" This time he says it a little louder, not too loud that her father can hear him, just with more desperation.
He opens the carriage door.
Met with the sight of the girl he's grown to.....care for. Her face is all different shades of black and blue. Her nose and lip is bleeding.
She's been crying.
God he hates seeing her cry. He hates seeing her hurt. He hates the man that did this to her.
He was too late, if only they ran away together.
He feels like he's failed her.
"God what has he done to you?" "I shouldn't of left you with him" "I shouldn't of left you" "I'm so sorry, my love" He rambles while reaching out to her.
He touches her cheek. She flinches.
"I'm going to kill him" The murderous boy says with nothing but truth is his eyes.
She grabs his hand.
The both just look at each other, until she wraps her arms around his waist and digs her head into his chest. He doesn't hesitate to wrap his arms around her, he rests his head lightly on top of hers making sure to be careful with the injured girl.
He can hear her soft sobs.
He cups both his hands on face, pulling her gently away from him so he can get a good look at her.
Scanning her face, looking at all the things this monster has done to the small girl.
"He will never touch you again, do you hear me?"
The girl nods while staring into his eyes.
"I will make sure of it"
She nods again.
"We need to get out of here, before your dad realises you're still out here"
He takes her hand and helps her out of the carriage.
Looking at the floor was to two unconscious men. The servants. And a big stick.
"Okay I've never actually punched someone before, but I saw the stick and thought it would do the trick" The boy says smiling
This made the girl laugh.
A proper real laugh.
He could listen to it all day.
God what is this girl doing to me?
After she finished laughing she turned to him and says
"How did you find me"
Searching around in his pocket he finds the folded up piece of paper. He turns it around to show her.
A missing persons picture. With a phone number (her fathers) and an address. Her address.
"You came for me?
"I would do it again in a heartbeat"
"You really are something, Viscount Tewksbury, the marquess of Basilweather"
"And you are beautiful, Lily May"
The girls heart was beating like a drum. She gives him a big dorky smile, while her face turned red.
"Let's go get enola" Lily says trying to get his words out of her head.
You are beautiful, Lily May
She grabs his hand, and they start running. Going to the finishing school.
We are coming Enola.
Here's a little half chapter. Only 600 words, but I wanted this chapter to be just on Lily and Tewksbury. Plus this whole chapter came from me. My 🧠. They will go back to being longer now. Also I put a trigger warning, I'm not sure if that's what you do, but I didn't want anyone upset so tell me if that's a good idea.
