I sigh as I look in the mirror trying to hold it together, as I stood up there was a knock on my door "yes?" "the carriage is here" I nod and put my gloves on and grab my hat heading to the door turning the light off taking a deep sigh. I slowly walk down the stairs trying to keep my composer. I smile taking Baldricks hand stepping down the last few steps, I hug him smiling as a few butlers and maids take my bags to the carriage. " Don't keep that hair bun to tight" "I will try my best Baldrick" I smile hugging Florance and kissing his head "I see you like a big sister now" "well I will never forget how brave you were to protect me when I first came here" he smiles and hugs me tightly as he started crying "but you were supposed to be part of our family" "I know love, I'm sorry" "come here Florance" Baldrick took Florance hugging him and rubbing his back. "So I can't see your body naked again?" "Not any time soon Alister, sorry" "eh I tried, so I assume tasting you blood is out of the option?" "Alister" "sorry sorry" I shake my head hugging Alister kissing his cheek. "Guess that's all I'm gonna get" I smile shaking my head looking around for Damon. I sigh looking at the ground "the carriage is ready to leave your highness" "I'll be right there" the butler nods as the others and the maids go back to work seeing a few of eyed.
Sir Hemlock led me to the carriage holding an umbrella over us as it started to snowing. "It was a pleasure to have you here with us Dalila" "I enjoyed it, other than the death defying times" "well let's hope there isn't any more" I smile and hug him kissing his cheek "I'm sorry about Damon, he can be..." "Think nothing of it sir Hemlock, he will get to me soon" I smile and get in the carriage "travel safe princess" I get in and he closes the door. I take a deep breath as the carriage starts the move and the Manson slowly fades in to distance. I sit down rubbing the engraving of the matting mark Damon gave me, but I had to cover it up with makeup so no one else knows, it's will be a secret to his family and me. I look out of the window seeing the trees pass as they get covered in white, I look at my gloved hands. I slowly take them off and trace the lines on my hand and see teeth marks on my wrist, I bite my lower lip and slowly run my fingers over the scars.
