MEETING MASTER RENARD: What He Promised
Jessica found herself in a dimly lit carriage, her heart heavy with uncertainty about her fate. She gazed out of the small, curtained window as the carriage rumbled along the gravel road. The sinking realization that she might never return home weighed on her, and she clutched her hands to her chest, her only source of comfort in this unfamiliar world.
As the carriage came to a halt, Jessica was greeted by a breathtaking sight. Before she stood a magnificent, towering mansion. It was a Victorian masterpiece, with ornate turrets, grand archways, and a sprawling garden that seemed to stretch on forever. The mansion's facade was adorned with intricate carvings, and ivy crept up its stone walls, adding to its charm. The windows, with their stained glass designs, sparkled in the fading daylight.
