She had hoped this had all been a nightmare, and that the pinching of the skin she had inflicted upon herself would wake her up, but the loud sounds that had echoed from Lady Evaline's footsteps had snapped Serena back into reality and the tense heavy breathing had returned.
Lady Evaline had readied for a carriage for the both of them and had given Serena a spare cloak hence the one she had currently worn had been burnt. "There's someone who owes me a favour," Lady Evaline mentioned, "Charlotte Branwell, she will take you in."
