Kasienka lent against her bedroom door, tears nearly spilling over her eyes. What was this feeling she had and why couldn't she do anything to stop it? Logan had put a spell on her which she could not break, no matter how hard she tried. She tried not to care, she tried to resist the pure temptation of his charm but she couldn't do it, though she knew she had to. Her mother would be ashamed of her for even thinking the horrible thought of giving up her families lives for just one.... man. She barely knew him, in fact she barely knew anything about him but there was something about him that made her care. She knew that she had to stop thinking this way, to block him out, but she just couldn't. To look him in the eyes and to kill him was the worst thing imaginable. But she had to. There was no other option.
"Kasienka? Kasienka are you in there?" She heard the sweet, innocent voice of Odella say from the other side of the door. Kasienka quickly wiped the few tears from her face and flattened down her creased and messy dress.
"Sorry Odella I was...reading." Kasienka said as she opened the door to see Odella holding a pile of black clothes in her arms.
"That is quiet alright Kasienka, Mr. Jeffrey has asked me to give these to you and to meet him in the dining room at 7pm." Odella said looking down at the clothes in her hands. Kasienka glanced down at them and from what she could see she could tell that the clothes were basically leather and fine cloth. Parker must want me to train in fighting clothes, Kasienka thought, how interesting!
"Of course Odella, please place them on the bed." Kasienka said, moving aside so that Odella could come inside. Bowing her head, Odella walked into the room and placed the clothes on the bed.
"You must treat me more equal than a mistress Odella, I assure you really aren't that different." Kasienka said watching Odella flatten the clothes on the bed neatly.
"Thank you miss... I mean Kasienka." Odella said with a genuine smile to which Kasienka returned.
"Will you need any help changing?" Odella asked and Kasienka shook her head.
"Thank you Odella but I am sure I shall be fine, please feel free to leave and do something not for me!" Kasienka said with a giggle and Odella thanked her and left. Kasienka looked down at her clothes. How much leather does she need?
