My sweet lady Davina (Another Kolvina story)

Chapter 3

Kol's pov

I woke up at 4 this morning, I yawned as I stretched my arms and legs, a little groan escaped my lips as I get up from the bed I slept on last night, I only had a few hours sleep last night but they were the best few hours sleep I've ever had since home, it's the first time in 5 years that I've slept in a warm bed and it's a huge change from sleeping on a bench or the ground. A smile suddenly appears on my face as there's a knock at the door followed by Davina's sweet voice "Kol are you awake?" She asks through the door "yeah come in" I say turning to face the door as it opens and Davina steps in the room with a beautiful smile on her face, a smile that makes her look so radiant as it lights up the room "good morning I come here bearing you clothes they're specifically for working in the stables" she says grabbing a small folded up pile of clothes from the tray she was carrying, she hands the clothes to me I smile "thank you" I say laying the clothes out on the bed "no problem now I also bought you breakfast I wasn't sure what you would like so I just made bacon and scrambled eggs along with some freshly made orange juice" she says holding the tray out to me the smell of the food travels up my nose and I almost groan at the delicious smell but I refrain from it "oh you shouldn't have I'm fine" I say "nonsense breakfast is the most important meal of the day and you have a busy day ahead of you so eat up you will need the energy" she says I take the tray from her and place it on the nightstand behind me "thanks I actually love scrambled eggs I haven't had them in ages" I say "well I hope you like them I'll leave you to eat and get ready I'll be downstairs" she says turning on her heel and walking out the room and I can't help but notice her limping slightly making me frown but I shrug it off could just be a bruise from the incident last night, the memory of that creep touching her against her own will and hurting her makes my blood boil, no man should ever treat a woman like that it's disgraceful, I'd never treat a woman like that I have a lot of respect for women.

Once I've eaten my breakfast and drank every drop of the orange juice, which was delicious I start getting ready, I slip off the clothes I had previously been wearing and I slip on the clothes Davina gave me, the clothes she had given me were a pair of brown pants, a black shirt and a brown waist coat I also slip on the boots that Davina had left for me. Once I'm dressed I grab the tray and head downstairs to meet Davina, I find her in the kitchen cleaning "hey" I say making Davina jump and turn around "shit Kol you scared me" she says placing a hand on her chest where her heart is "sorry I didn't mean to scare you" I say honestly "it's quite alright" she says with a slight chuckle "the scrambled eggs were delicious as was the orange juice" I say "thank you I'm glad you liked them give the tray to me I'll deal with them" she says "no allow me to clean them it's the least I can after you made me this delicious breakfast" I say she smiles making me smile in response as I can't help but smile when she does "Kol it's not your job to clean it's mine" she says "I insist" I say "maybe next time" she says taking the tray from me, I watch as she cleans and puts the stuff away "so is your husband still asleep?" I ask noticing the lack of her husband's presence "yes he's usually awake at this time but because he drank last night he'll sleep in today" she says "I'm guessing it's usually loud this time of morning" I say "yes Randol is the loudest person ever" she says with a giggle my stomach does sumersaults at the sound "so these rules and instructions" I say "oh yeah I almost forgot" she says blushing "there are only five rules" she says I nod at her "rule 1 you must be up at 4 am every morning execpt Sunday that's your day off rule 2 always be on time rule 3 no lying or stealing rule 4 no slacking on the job and rule 5 don't speak to anyone unless they talk to you first sorry my husband made these rules" she says sheepishly I smile at her "it's quite alright" I say "as for the instructions you will work from 5am till 6pm 6 days a week, you have four fifteen minute breaks at 8am, 11am, 2pm and 5pm, your job will consist of cleaning the stables, stacking and retrieving haybales, feeding, grooming and cleaning out the horses, taking the horses out on the field at the back for 3 hours each day, preparing the horses for outings when my husband is going to a meeting or party and needs transport and you will sometimes be asked to run errands for either me or my husband and the last part you will be paid $2.50 an hour" she says "sounds okay" I say "I'm sorry about the money I asked if Randol could raise the amount about but he refused he's stubborn and greedy like that" she says "it's fine I'm lucky that I'm even getting paid" I say "so if you will follow me I'll take you to the stables" she says moving around me and heading for the door, I follow after her.

It takes us five minutes to get to the stables
Davina unlocks and opens the stable doors, she enters the stables "morning ladies and gents" she says greeting the horses some of the horses huff or neigh in response making me chuckle "we have 8 horses let me introduce you " she says turning to face me "this is Carl he's 14 years old and he's a very shy boy at first but once he gets to know you better he'll soon be your best bud" she says standing in front of a pen with a black horse inside, I nod at the information "this is Shannon she's 7 years old and is quite the rebel she's always escaping from the her pen so just be on the look out for her" she says pointing to a beige coloured horse in a pen next to Carl's "this big boy here is Jumbo he's 16 years old he's quite bossy and stubborn he's actually my husband's favorite horse" she says motioning to a big brown horse, I can't help but notice how she rolls her eyes as she explains he is her husband's favorite but I shrug it off "this is Florence she's 12 years old and is a real fiesty girl but you have to be careful because she tends to get in a tiff with Shannon" she says about a grey and white horse "Maddox he's 4 years old he's our youngest horse and he's a proper little champ he loves being around people" she says standing in front of a pen with a ginger coloured horse I watch in admiration as the horse walks up to her sticking it's head out and she giggles as he nudges her "hey boy did you miss me?" She coos he makes a little noise in response making her smile "anyway moving on to the next this is Poppy she's 22 years and she is very childish when it comes to her food she must be given it a certain way otherwise she won't eat it and will just toss her bowl across her pen so she's also quite the diva too" she says pointing to a white horse "this is Johnny he's 10 years old and he is very dramatic and can be unpredictable but he's so loveable" she says stroking a black horse on it's head, this horse was bigger than the other black horse she introduced to me before "now for the last horse this is Bash he's 5 years old and is quite a lunatic you'll often find him running in circles or you'll find him trying to eat butterflies but he's a good boy he always listens" she says leading me to the last pen which has a light brown horse inside "they all seem great" I say "good over there is a shelf with their stuff on along with equipment" she says "on each pen you will notice a booklet hanging in front that has all the information on the horses" she says "and that's all do you have any questions?" She asks "not at all" I say "great I'll leave you to it then" she says I nod with a smile and watch as she walks around me but stops and turns around to face me "oh and Kol" she says "yeah" I respond "if you ever need anything then just come find me it's better you come talk to me rather than my husband I'm a lot friendlier than he is" she says with a little laugh "of course I know where to go if I need you" I say she smiles and places a hand on my arm and that's when I feel magic shocking me I look at Davina and see she's felt it too but she doesn't say anything instead she just hurries off, so she's a witch? A smirk grows on my face this might be more fun than I thought, finally I'm not the only one who has the gift of magic with that I start getting on with my tasks for the day.

What's Kol thinking of in that head of his? Stay tuned for more
