The day started to pass and while I was together with the duke, I started to see a different side to him. He was carrying for me as a cat and didn't even question me at all or why Penelope had a cat. In fact he did continue working on the papers he had to take care of. At first I thought he didn't care about the news that I as a person vanished but the more I looked and observed the duke, I realized that he was drowning himself in work to forget about time. He was glanzing at the clock and at the door as well as at the window to check about what was going on but as time started to pass, nothing happened at all.

Me: Mew!

I can't leave him be like this anymore.

I should do something.

Maybe I can tell him that I am Penelope?!

But he wouldn't believe it.

I wouldn't if people would tell me that.

Sooo.... what should I do?

Derrick is a fool and Reynold is someone I don't even want to associate with.

Eckless is still out of the picture since he is still a slave... I could try to get him out but how should I do that as a cat?

No, that is not an option...

Should I stick with Calisto then?

Hah as if he would actually want to be together with a cat.... yeah no... that shouldn't be it.

Winter?

He is a magician... he might help me out here.... maybe... I hope.

I don't know if I should continue living as a cat....It would be kinda nice but what would I do when Ivonne comes back?

What then?

No, no no!

I need to get back to my human form!

At first I didn't mind being a cat, well after I freaked out and then got treated nicely by Derrick. Even the likability went up which was definitely something good but the only bad thing was that I was not human. I couldn't communicated with anyone at all and there was just so much a cat could do. So in short, I needed someone I could wrap around my finer as a cat and then as a human. There was no one in my family who would like me as a human, that much was for sure. If I would work my likability up and then return as a human being, then it would certainly drop again. Then what? No one could guarantee me that I would be stuck as a cat. Perhapse I would return being a human!

If so, then I would be screwed for sure.

The more I was thinking about the situation the more I knew I had to get out of here. My father, the duke was worried about me and Derrick and Reynold hated me. There was definitely something strange but even so, I couldn't stay here for long. My survival was the most important key point. Even if I liked the duke and if our relationship got back to being good, I would still die thanks to Reynold or Derrick.

Duke: Are you trying to comfort me?

Me: Mew.

Duke: Hah... even a cat can see how worried I am....

Of course, who wouldn't be able to see it? I wasn't blind after all and I was not ignorant to but it only meant that it would hurt to leave him behind like this. For some reason I felt my chest tighten up when I thought about escaping from the room. Still I had to do it.

Thankfully the duke didn't really pay much attention to me as he should and so when the next servant came in, I escaped the room and got out of the mansion too. I needed to find Winter asap. He was the only person who could actually help me. Thankfully I knew exactly where to find him. The only problem was that I needed some kind of way to communcate with him or my persistancy should be enough.

Oh well, I would figure it for sure since I was already on my way to the man himself. He had a secret and I knew that very secret and I also knew about the kids and what he was doing behind everyones back. He was a sourcerer and a skilled one as well.

He would certainly be best card I had in my hands.

Oh my Oh my... Is this true? I am a cat.... !!!!Where stories live. Discover now
