Tewkesbury walked in, the last person I wanted to see. "I heard a shou- oh my gosh what happened to your neck!?" He shouted, rushing towards me. He cupped his hands around my face. Examining the cut. I grabbed  some excess sheets and cut them. I cut open my dress and wrapped it around the wound. Tewkesbury's hand clutched mine, I squinted in pain.  "Now what happened?" He cooed. I look at him dead in the eye to prove I'm serious," I was stabbed by-" another knock. "Come in!" I shouted. An angry Eliza barged in, knife in her hand, hidden by the lace on her night dress. Tewkesbury looked at her and then back at me, before hugging me. I hungrily hugged back. For once I wanted to be in Eliza's shoes for a day. I wanted to be the one marrying Tewkesbury. I did love him after all, and I wasn't interested in money or fame, and I certainly didn't want to kill him. "Who were you stabbed by Enola?" He asked, brushing my hair behind my ear. I pat the spot on the bed next to me and Eliza sat. I then grabbed her hand and whispered," say it's an intruder, he won't believe me." She nodded. "There was a break in, my guess is they fled after the attack." She spoke calmly and clearly. Meanwhile I was breathing heavily. Tewkesbury nodded. "I'll sleep here tonight, Eliza you take my room." He commanded, sitting down next to me. Eliza nodded and left the room.  I laid down and he did the same beside me. I instantly fell asleep.
