"Lucille, the master would like to see you in his office something about his office being messy?" the maid said to her. Lucille walks through the big mansion to his office wing. Everyone getting ready for his ball that he's hosting tomorrow so everyone's all rushing around. Except Lucille, she'd only been working here for a year and she'd immediately started working with the maids. 'why would he want to see me I cleaned his office just fine' she thought as she was standing in front of his office. She knocked and he answered

"come in" he said as she walked in and stood in front of his desk.

"I'm so sorry I didn't clean your office like you wanted I will re-clean it right now if you want me to. " Lucille rambled and seconds later she hears him chuckle.

" your okay Lucille I just wanted to talk" he said as he got up from his desk and began to walk towards her.

"you originally speak French yes? "he asks Lucille

" yes" Lucille said

"aimez vous travailler pour moi?" he asked

"oui...." she replied as he stepped closer causing her to move back up against one of the walls in his office his face merely centimeters away from Lucille.

"Est-ce que tu m'aimes" he whispered on her lips

"J'ai ne sa pas" she said to him and in embarrassment he pulled away.

"I'm sorry sir but I don't I honestly don't I mean your a handsome man but I wouldn't talk about love" she said to him with sorry eyes

"oh Lucille you have no idea what you mean to me, " he begins and walk towards the window

" you haunt my dream with your angelic face and whenever I see you I just want you in my arms, your so kind and gentle , so even though your just a maid here. To me your so much more than that. I can even say that I- I'm in love you Lucille. " he said to her as he look out the window

" now um, can I talk? " Lucille said waiting for him to nod which he did

" Look, the reason why I said what I did was because I didn't know how you felt" she said as she started to walk to him at the window.

"and know that I know how you feel I can tell you yes Elyus I love you too.. " she said. He looked her in the eyes and in one motion presses his lips against hers. Their lips move in sync as he cannot believe that he'd kissed her. They caught a breath of air and he asked her to go with him to his ball. She couldn't believe it her a maid going to a high class ball with Elyus.

later that evening

Music plays in the grand hall where everyone is dancing and drinking. Lucille was dancing with her master, her life in pure bliss shes with the perfect man and she feels like a queen. But sometimes things are never really perfect. Elyus has an older brother James. James despised him and he frowned upon him bring one of his maids to the ball. He walks over to his younger brother who was know eating a chocolate from Germany with his maid.

"so younger brother quite a swell ball if I do say so myself." James says to him.

" indeed brother but have I introduced you to Lucille my date?" he asked James. He motions for Lucille to turn around which she does to reveal her stunning tanned face with her small but kind brown eyes along with her lovely blue dress. Lucille simply waves at her masters elder brother. James just stares dumbfounded at what the girl had done to him, she hadn't reached out her hand for him to shake or kiss but she waved at him as if they were already friends. By the time James had processed the thought they had already left to the dance floor. He found them dancing. He went to think of how to kill Eylus since the dagger was hidden in his suit.

flashback

It was when their father was on his death bed. James rushed over to his fathers side hoping that he would leave this land and money to him instead of his younger brother. But alas he didn't say anything about that all he said was that he was going to a better place than this. So James waited anxiously for his will to be found while his younger brother was about in the town after girls and buying them jewels that they would never appreciate. When they did find his will it said the money would be split but the land wouldn't so he gave it to his youngest son. James was outraged and left as soon as could with the money but he vowed to return to get that land. no matter what

end

" younger brother could I please have a word with you?" James asked his little brother.

"Why of course," he called back to him as he excused himself from the party. James asked for them to talk in private so he suggested in his office. When they arrived there it was all silence except for James walking around his office.

"So why the maid of all people brother?" James asked his younger brother.

"Because she is the most beautiful woman I have ever laid eyes onand I believe I'm love-" he begins

"In love with the maid brother have you gone made?!" James asked him

"I believe I have James and I also believe I know why your here?" his younger brother said to him.

"oh- you know just to make amends before everything..." James begins

"like with fathers will and how I just left and never wrote to you since." He says as he hugs his little brother.

At this moment James plunges the dagger in to his back seizing the perfect time to kill his younger brother for all of what he wanted. Money, land, and his fathers love. James lets his brother fall to the carpet staining the soft pearl white with dark red blood. He leans down to his almost dead body and whisper something that will make his soul happy once more but sadly I have forgotten the rhyme. Maybe next time I will and you shall see that not all stories are happy. I do know though what happens to that maid Lucille ... Until next time.
