When we finally got our horses we made our way down the dusty roads to Mathew's ranch. It wasn't far only a few miles outside of town but a long way for two girls that had never traveled that far before on horses. We finally made our way to the ranch. It was beautifull with rich green pastures and wooden stables filled with nicely groomed horses along with a huge house that looked like it coulod house fifty people. I gasped in awe as i took everything in and I figured out I had never seen anything so beautifull. I wished desperately it was mine . Mathew looked at me and watched my reactions.
"Are you going to stand there and stare at an old dusty house or go inside." My excitement died down as I felt Mathews cruelty. I was just hoping it was from a long ride but I could feel inside my heart it was different . Something completely different. I was already starting to love the house. When we walked inside it grew grander and greater at every corner . From old staircases or antique furniture it was all old and totally different from anything I had seen before. erina and I went upstairs and we picked out our seperate rooms. I was sure I wouldn't sleep in the same room with Mathew becuase he was always talking about me being in seperate quarters along with how un acceptable it was for his mistress to live with him.
