it was long she let her hair down so she untied it to leave it falling on her back. She saw some oil which she applied on her hair, the oil smelt slightly like Sirius. picking up a brush she worked on her hair until it was tangle free. She had forgotten to tell Sirius, she would be visiting her sister today, she was still angry with her so she needed to talk to her. When she turned around she caught sight of a trolley of food which was well covered. Sirius must have told the servants to bring in the food, he was kind in some ways. But she didn't like she got married without her will, and also without love, she wondered how their marriage was going to work, just a compromise. Katherine walked to the trolley of food, she sat down on the chair next to it. The first plate she opened consist of a garnished beef meat, and her mouth drooled. Within minutes, the food was cleared by Katherine. She pushed the trolley of food away as she headed to the kitchen.
A Servant caught sight of the lord's wife pushing the trolley herself, he immediately rushed to her aid.
" No milady, you shouldn't carry them yourself I will help. " he said taking the trolley away from her with a bow.
" Timotei you don't need to worry it's actually light. " She said to the servant she recognized. Timotei the servant heart melted, he could not believe the miss would recognize him after being married to the lord.
" Look at that! that is why you don't belong in the high society where people got a quality of sense with them. " Silvia voice was heard. She nodded her head for Timotei to leave. She picked up the front of her dress ready to walk out on the lady, but Sylvia stamped her foot.
" What was that for! " She looked down on her leg.
" it was a mistake I didn't intend that, how dare you try to walk out on me while you should be making an impression." Sylvia shot. " Remember you will always be a peasant to me. "
" So stop spending time with the peasant." she stared straight at the woman.
" haha I can see you are growing such a wing being promoted from being a personal maid, let me cut them off. " She smiled evilly taking a handful of the side if her hair. " You aren't going to be the real daughter in-law of this house, my brother would be getting married to a second wife, a vampiress in precise." Sylvia spat out. She could tell Sylvia was going to be second Claire. Sirius was going to be getting married to a second Wife.
'' I don't mind, who said I wanted to be the daughter in law of this house, I am good off my self. " She said, she wasn't surprise that Sirius was going to practice polygamy, anyways the marriage wasn't for love. She stormed off but she was angry, she couldn't believe that.
Katherine stopped a local carriage, she wasn't sure the Donovan would be happy in her using their carriage. She has noticed a servant of her whereabouts in case Sirius asked of her.
" Enruben town Enruben town!!! " The coachman repeated. Katherine who hopped into the carriage sat there as others as well who were heading to Enruben climbed in as well.
She tapped her fingers continuously on her lap, as she looked around the town which was so developed looking, unlike Enruben with muddy soil sticking out and the people who live here were mostly elites.
" miss, did your carriage break down." Katherine looked beside her to see a woman who curiously asked. it was good no one in the carriage knew her.
" Is there a problem. " Katherine said.
" it's obvious miss, your dress is so made of silk. " The woman said. Katherine looked around the carriage to only notice their eyes on her.
" I prefer the local carriage for this journey." she said to her. The person in front of her continuously stared at her. " Sir don't you have any etiquette or propriety don't you know it wrong to stare for a long time." She said to a man sitting in front of her.
" miss it's obvious you are very beautiful." A woman commented, who said that with the view of getting on the elite woman good side.
" Stop!! " The man in front of her shouted and everyone turned alert. " This woman" he gritted his teeth referring to her. " She is the Lord's wife! "The man said and Katherine heart thumped. The people eyes widened as they stared at her.
" Yes I am the lord's wife do you all have a problem with that?" She said but every nook of the carriage turned as quiet as a graveyard.
" Is Every ready, the carriage is about to take off." The coachman said peeping his head into the backseat carriage.
" milady let me find you a better carriage than this. " One of the people in the carriage said, who wanted to get on her good side so as to gain favour from the lord.
The coachman eyes fell on one of the dress standing out in the carriage and his head tilted in confusion.
" Mr coachman what is taking your time. " She said and the man was quick to go to his side to pull the reins of the horse.
***********
Katherine reached Enruben and the people left in the carriage continued to sing her praise and bid her. She has never received that attention and frankly it was so uncomfortable. She continued to walk down the road to her house.
She saw a drunk looking woman who continued to whirl around muttering some words to herself. Should she mind her business or help the woman. She continued to walk downward and the woman upwards. When she almost passed her, the woman swayed and she caught her.
" miss are you okay" She questioned in concern. She felt a grip on her hands coming from the woman so she thought it must be the woman trying to hold unto her to not fall.
" Where are you heading to miss? " She asked the woman whose hair entirely covered her face, it reminded her of herself.
" I will kill you " She heard the woman speak whose voice came out hoarse instead.
'' What did you say " Katherine said not surprised as the woman may be drunk. Suddenly the woman stopped swaying, she lifted her head and a set of jagged teeth were seen.
''Aaaaaah!!!!!" She shouted in fear, when she tried to move away her self, the woman held her two hands tightly.
she growled showing it teeth which had blood taints.
Katherine shook her hands to take it off but she was too weak. The woman jumped into her, making her fall to the floor.
" Get away from me you soul eater!! " Katherine struggles went in vain, when the woman face leaned to sink into her neck. Katherine shut her eyes, it was over now maybe she shouldn't have even come here. She was going to turn into this vile creature.
But what was taking the woman long, as she snapped open her eyes, she felt the woman claws scratch her neck. It moved it's body vigorously above her, that was when she caught sight of a hunter who had lifted the creator. Katherine quickly scurried away, was she going to turn she got scratched.
The hunter and the soul eater got into a fight and not less than a minute an arrow could be seen piecing into the woman's stomach. Katherine fidgeted the woman didn't deserve this, she was once a human just like her who was just bitten.
