Emilia danced her fingers over the surface of the hot fragrant water in the tub as she sat aside watching the ripples she created with her movements. The steam rising from the bath made the air she breathed, thick and humid, she hated that feeling. Though as she had great disdain for it, the bath was a necessity, for this evenings event.

Sepitus stomped his way into the drawing room where Romulus stood already waiting for him with a glass of brandy in hand.

Freed held his breath and braced himself for an onslaught of anger and harsh words. He gently pushed open the large black door with a pristine gloved hand. The rush of cold air escaping the room rushed past him. His hair blew back as if it were a leaf lazily floating in a chilly autumn breeze.

A young girl on a farm, about seventeen years old. Beautiful and full of life. Long gilded locks, shinning eyes the color of a deep spring. Skin so smooth and perfect that it looks as though the angels themselves crafted every inch. Her name was Beatrice, the daughter of a wealthy farmer in the Scottish countryside.
