Before the time with Alois, Claude had a mistress he served, that he'd grown awfully attracted to. All though he'd love to feast on her soul, he wants to keep her alive in one piece. She had such a sweet and vulnerable soul. It's forbidden but he'd...
"Come in." I called out as I was reading a few pieces of paper work.
"I'm sorry for interrupting my lady, but you have received a letter." Rose said.
"Letter?"
Huh, that's funny I usually have all my mail in on Mondays. I wonder why this didn't go with everything else?
Rose came in front of my desk handing me the letter. I gave a nod to her giving the sign to dismiss her, she bowed to me before walking out of the room. I ripping the seam, opening it and grabbed the paper from the fancy envelope.
"A wedding ceremony?" A voice said.
"I didn't even open it and you already knew what it is." I gave a small smirk before putting down the letter on the desk.
Claude walked up besides me. "It's not very hard tell, my mistress."
"You happen to know who it's from?"
"A man named Alexis Leon Midford, seemed to be inviting a few of the well known families around the area."
"Oh. Just another way to get me involved with other families." I crossed my arms over my chest.
I've been invited to a party? Strange, I usually don't get invited to such events, I wonder what made me stand out of so noble families around here.
I sat up from my spot and picked up the paper and began reading so. The date is 3 days from now. The Lord Midford is getting married to a younger lady with the name of Francis... But I wonder, the people who killed my father will be there. Everyone has different connections so who knows, maybe I should attend and get my revenge.
I got up from my chair.
"My lady?" Claude said raising a brow.
"Have my carriage be ready in 10, I need to go out looking for a dress."
Claude looked at me with his golden eyes before bowing his head.

3 Days Later.
I was on my way to the Midford mansion. It was quite a long ride I been in here for half an hour. I noticed from a far, a few other carriers parked alongside the road as I knew I'd come close to the minor.
I took a deep breath as it had been awhile since I'd attend something like this. I remember at 16, I'd go a couple times with my father, since he would be invited.
I looked down at my dress. A little frighten to show what I was wearing.
(What you are wearing with a pair of white elbow length gloves.)
