The first time we came to the Count of Reid castle, my mistress and I were little children. She was three and I was seven years old. I can remember that it was a lovely day, the sun was shining, and the sky was clear, it would be a great day to go outside and rest under the shade of a tree, but for me, it was the day my master left us. I wanted so much to run behind her, but the baby in my arms and my promise stopped me.
I knew I had a responsibility and a debt to pay to my Master. I vowed to never leave Miss Lucia, not even once. I vowed to protect her and care for her for the rest of my days.
When we entered the main door of the castle, the astonished faces from the servants were quite funny to look at. After all my Master was the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. Even the Count was left with eyes wide open and a bit of a blush.
