[A/N: Will start off on the Dimitrescu Sisters POV again a few seconds before you left Alcinas room]

Daniela, Cassandra and Bella were all listening into the conversation that you and Lady Dimitrescu we're having.

"you may retire Maiden" The three heard their mother speak.

They then heard you walking towards the door so they all buzzed off quickly in their swarms of bugs.

You left the room and then the three made their way into the countess's room without you knowing.

The woman's attention was brought onto the three.

"did you need anything my dears?" Their mother asked.

"Mother what was that about?" Daniela asked.

"what was what about?" The woman came back with another question.

The three daughters looked at each other then back at the countess.

"The strange conversation with the maiden, what else would it be about?" Cassandra said having an attitude.

"I simply have no idea what you're talking about" the woman said deflecting the question.

"Why are you acting so strange around the maiden anyways?" Bella asked.

"I'm not acting strange around her." The countess said in a more colder tone.

"You totally are" Cassandra crossed her arms.

"I agree with Cass" Daniela said, siding with Cassandra.

"I well not talk anymore on this subject, now if you would I have business to attend to." The countess dismissed them.

The three looked at each other raising their eyebrows but then flew away in their swarm of bugs.

They went to the main hall to talk.

"What do you think is going on with mother?" Daniela asked.

"I have no idea but we could probably get answers from that Maiden" Bela said.

"Do you think we could maybe take a sip of her blood as well!" Cassandra asked excitedly.

Bella and Daniela just rolled their eyes in response.

"Come on let's find the maiden" Daniela said.

They looked around for a bit and finally found y/n in the library.

"Finally that took forever, what are you even doing in here anyways?" Cassandra complained.

"Uhm.. reading?" You responded.

"Okay let's get to the chase." Bella rushed.

You just looked at them confused about what was going on.

"what's-" you were cut off.

"What was with the conversation you and our mother had?" Daniela asked.

"You guys were listening!?" You exclaimed

"Uhh.. yeah why wouldn't we be?" Cassandra said.

"Anyways why is our mother going soft on you?" Bella pondered.

"W-what are you talking about?" You stuttered.

"Oh you know exactly what we're talking about" Cassandra said.

"You know the way you look at our mother and the way you smile when you're around her" Daniela said.

"W-what do you mean? I-i don't do that." You said as you felt yourself getting nervous.

"Don't lie" Bella said.

"W-What do you mean, I-I'm not lying." You stuttered.

Cassandra pinned you against the wall and put her sickle against your neck threatening to slice it open.

"Tell us or I'll kill you here and now." Cassandra said in a low tone.

"Cassandra you know we could get in trouble for that." Daniela said.

"Who gives a fuck, if she responds she doesn't have anything to worry about." Cassandra rolled her eyes.

"W-wait! P-please don't hurt me!" You begged.

"Then answer our question, what's going on between you and mother?" Cassandra demanded.

"I-i-" you were cut off.

The countess open the doors and bent down through them. She looked at you and then her daughter's.

"What is going on in here!?" Her voice boomed.

"M-Mother!" Cassandra dropped her sickle to the floor and faced the countess.

The woman just glared at Cassandra.

"Mother we just-" Daniela was cut off.

"I wasn't talking to you, now was I?" The Countess said still looking at Cassandra.

"W-we just wanted answers, and the mortal was not giving them." Cassandra said.

"I do not care, that does not give you a reason to threaten Y/n's life! Do you understand?" The woman asked.

"Yes mother" Cassandra bowed then buzzed away.

"Now you two, what were you questioning Y/n about?" she asked Daniela and Bela.

"The same thing we were asking you." Bela said.

The countess pinched the bridge of her nose and shook her head slowly.

"Didn't I tell you to leave it alone?" She asked.

"Yes Mother, sorry for our disobedience" Bela apologized.

"Just leave me and the Maiden alone so we can talk." She said shooing the girls away.

They left leaving you and the countess with each other, she looked over at you and then walked towards you.

She bent down towards you and gently held your chin in her hand.

"Did my daughter hurt you?" She asked.

"N-no, not really." You shifted.

The countess hummed.

"What were they asking you about?" She asked you.

"They asked me what we were talking about earlier." you responded.

"Did they ask you anything else?" She asked you again.

"N-no.." you lied

The woman's grip on your chin tightened a bit.

"Don't lie to me, what did they ask you about." The Countess wanted an answer.

"T-They were just asking about w-why I act nervous, when I'm around you..." you muttered the last part.

The woman now looked amused.

"Well that's one thing I would like to know as well." She said in a teasing tone.

Your face was painted with a light pink and you looked away.

"you should get back to work now dear, we will finish this talk later." The Countess said now standing up.

You watch the woman walked out the room and then you proceeded to clean the library.
