New books
Elizabeth's POV
I was roaming the library for the 5th time today to see if a new book would magically appear, it didn't. I went back up to my room in Matthew's tower and sat on my couch. (So she has a room in Matthew's tower and the couch is from his study it was a gift.)

I then went back to the library to look for a 6th time when someone said "Here again are we?" I turned to see Godfrey in an armchair. "Well what if a witch is practicing a teleportation spell with a book?"

"Highly unlikely." He laughs.

I grumble and go to the shelves again to look. "Elizabeth.... I have what your looking for." he stands. "Right and what am I looking for?" Still looking through the shelves. "Your in a library I'm going to guess new books?" he smiles.

"Where are they Godfrey!" I rush out of the stacks. "In such a rush are we?" I glare at him. "Follow me." he motions with his hand. I rush beside him as I'm taken to the other side of the château.

He leads me into a room with a bed and fireplace but the walls are covered in book shelves which are full of books. "Welcome to my room please feel free to take any of them at any time." I smile and rush to the shelves.

I grab multiple books, say thank you and goodbye. I run up the stairs to my room plop down on my couch and sigh contently.

Baldwin...again

Elizabeth's POV
I was walking up to the château after some training with Matthew and Pere, as I got inside the château was unsurprisingly full. I made my way up to the library trying not to bump into anyone.

I sat down on one of the chairs in front of the fire and opened a book. Marthe came up with two goblets of wine and the rest of the bottle. I looked quizzically at the second cup.

Then the library's doors burst open, coming in is a self centred pig, Baldwin. I didn't look up from my book when I said, "Did you know that, things would break less if you didn't slams them open or close?"

"And since when did you care what I did?" he growls. I look up from my book "I don't care about what you do. But I do like having doors on the library."
"You are a spoiled princess." he glares at me.
"Okay if I'm the princess your a giant drama queen."

"Your so dumb you can't tell when to stop bothering people. If you can't remember, let me remind you I beat you for n a duel 10 years ago and you had at least 400 years on me." I yell.

"Well at least I act and dress properly. I'm not in a dress when I'm supposed to be in trousers." he yells back. "Have you ever tried to fight in a dress?" I stare at him, "No I didn't think so."

He glares at me and I return it. He gulps down his wine slams the glass back on the table and walks out the door. "Serves you right self righteous pig." I mumble.

The door comes off the hinges this time and flies across the room. Baldwin comes leaping at me. I dodge just in time and he crashes into the coffee table. I run out of the library. "You really want to do this again?!" I yell running down the stairs.

I can hear him behind me but I don't look back. Something falls on top of me and bites my neck. I struggle underneath him until, I have an opening to flip us.

I'm on top of him, so I grab his hair and slam his head to the ground. I run through the crowd and out of the château.

Godfrey's POV
I stand next to Hugh watching and listening to the fight between Elizabeth and Baldwin. "I call 5 on Elizabeth." I whisper. "Baldwin is fuming my moneys on him." Hugh laughs. We shake on it and watch Elizabeth run through the crowd and out to the court yard.
