The morning started with the bright yellow light sneaking from the gaps of the curtains into the dark bedroom. Elle's slumber was quickly put into halt as the ray shone over her face which had laid on the soft bed. She wasn't one who sleep for a long time nor one who can sleep in presence of such bright light. Her golden eyes moved before her eyelid opened and when her eyes had turned bright, she could see the thin curtain that had shielded her bed. Her body moved forward as she questioned where and why she was in such a soft bed.
It took Elle a while to realize that she was in the manor of her father who she had just met for the first time of her eighteen years of life.
She pushed her fingers through her hair and let the information sink in as her heart felt somewhat heavier by seconds. She really is… the hidden daughter of a noble family.
