A Victorian secret

The party

As the day of the party arrived the whole mansion was busy preparing both the master and Beth for it. Mary was all to happy to make another dress for Beth and decided to go with a midnight blue and black dress with the blue only being at the front part of the dress in a sort of floral pattern and the rest of it black. It was a long dress and to wear it she would need heels as it covers her feet completely. The sleeves were tight until they got to the elbow and then flowed out loosely. Small amounts of white frills laced her sleeves and the chest line of the dress. With it she had on black high heels and a silver tiara band that goes across her forehead attached by a clip at the back of her head holding a blue and black jewel in the middle. Her hair had been threaded with black pearls hanging down. It was perfect and suited her well almost a mystic feeling. As she came down the stairs Chris could not help but stare at her in awe. To him she was stunning and in his suit he was stunning to Beth as well. Taking his arm Beth allowed Chris to lead her into the carriage driven by Bernard and of they went to the Dickinson's mansion. Alone the way Chris made sure to give Beth a bit of knowledge before she entered. One the head of the family Harold was still away on business so the twins would have planned a lot of traps. Two he told her not to use her strength and to not annoy people as that would be bad. There stick close to either him or anyone else she knew so she would stay out of trouble. He then bean to test her on the few phrases in Latin that she had learnt during her lessons with him. She was a quick learner surprisingly and could read and understand nearly all of Latin words yet speaking them and writing them were not very strong and needed a lot of work. Finally they arrived. To Beth this was one of the most breathtaking sights she had ever seen. The candlelight made it look so romantic and the chandelier made it look very classy and posh. As they entered they handed in their invitations and the butler said their names as the descended the stairs.

"Mr Christopher Knight and Miss Elizabeth Winters"

All eyes looked at them as they reached the bottom of the stairs but soon their attention drifted away from them. Looking around they immediately spotted the hosts of the party. Walking over to them they both bowed or curtsied. "Thank you very much for inviting us Adam" Chris said

"It was a pleasure" Adam said looking like he already wanted them to leave.

"Hello Chris my darling. Good for you to be here and i am quiet excited the Miss Elizabeth has decided to join us to" Angelina said looking at Chris and then turning towards Beth with an evil smile. Not letting this get to her Beth said "I am happy to Miss Angelina. I say i never would have expected to be invited to such an amazing party. You have good skills in organising such an event and i am also quite happy that you thought of inviting me". Chris looked at her as if to say what are you doing.

"Well once i met you i knew we were going to become fast friends" Angelina said glaring at her though still smiling.

"Me too" Beth said smiling happily. After that they separated with the twins and met up with Alex and the others. They had overheard the conversation and from the few words they exchanged they new that Beth had riled Angelina up on purpose so as to bring out their trap quicker so that they could get on with the evening.

"Okay so everyone know what to do" Phillip asked. Everyone nodded. Chris was to stick by Beth's side for as long as he could without Angelina trying to separate them and Alex and John would keep an eye out for anything that could indicate for what the twins were planing. Phillip would keep an eye on Adam. With the conversation finished they began to part ways after complementing on Beth's dress.
