Young Master Damien's Pet

Music Recommendation-?Lily's Theme (Extended)?Patrick Bennett

.

Damien could have used his ability to transport back to Bonelake but with the luggage, they had with them right now along with the third person, Caitlin who was traveling with them, he found it to be safer to ride the carriage which even Alexander had suggested. The last time they Damien and Penny had found themselves stranded in the middle of nowhere had been quite an experience for both of them.

It had been really long since any of them had used the carriage and using it, they could use some mental peace before they reached Quinn's mansion.

Their journey was peaceful as Caitlin fell asleep and Penny who was sitting next to Damien had her head placed on his shoulder so that she could lean and try falling asleep. The journey was more than two days from Valeria to Bonelake, and the carriage rode without any hitch. Stopping occasionally at villages so that they could eat and freshen up, they continued their journey until they reached the land of Bonelake finally. The horses pulled the carriage to only stop once they reached the mansion.

When the coachman jumped down from his seat to open the door, the butler of the house arrived to greet them.

Durik stood outside, his head bowing down when Master Damien and Lady Penelope stepped down from the carriage. When the third person stepped out, he looked at her wondering who it was.

"This is my aunt Caitlin," Penny introduced her aunt to the butler with the obvious question on his face.

"Get all the luggage settled in the room and show Lady Caitlin into the guest room," Damien ordered the butler who quickly nodded his head. The couple had been away from the mansion for more than a month now, making him wonder where they were until today. Damien turned to meet Penny's eyes, "I will be going ahead."

Penny nodded her head to see him go in and they followed the butler.

Caitlin was in awe with the place before they even got down from the carriage, "This looks like a castle with the bridge," she whispered to Penny as they walked inside the mansion, "Damien appears to be richer than Lord Alexander," it was because he was rich.

"Would you believe if I said he bought me five thousand gold coins?" actually it was three thousand but no one except for her, Damien and the auctioneer knew about it. Caitlin's eyes widened and she said,

"Looks like he likes to spend a lot."

"Actually it is the opposite," Penny chuckled remembering the way Damien loved bargaining.

"Then he must treasure you,"?After all, why would anyone spend five thousand gold coins on a slave. The woman didn't have to know that both Penny and Damien were too in love and often got lost in their own world while not noticing the things or people around them.

Before the three could head to the guest room, they met Lady Fleurance who was walking from the other side of the corridor, heading towards the main hall

"I thought both of you died that you didn't return home," said the vampiress in greeting that had Caitlin's eyebrows raise at her.

Penny didn't bother to retaliate and instead, she decided to be polite, answering the woman, "We were in Valeria. Caitlin, this is Damien's stepmother Lady Fleurance," she introduced to receive an eye roll from the vampiress, "Lady Fleurance this is-" Penny was saying when Caitlin interrupted her to say,

"I am a friend of Penelope's," the red-haired woman bowed her head and she saw the woman walk away from there, "Is she always like this?" Caitlin asked Penny seeing the back of the woman who disappeared into another room.

"Something like that. Don't mind her," Penny waved her hand. The woman would look down upon anyone who was not a pureblooded vampire, "Why did you introduce yourself to her as my friend?" she questioned a little confused as she was eager to introduce her as her aunt.

"If your mother is still keeping a watchful eye on you, there's a possibility of her finding out that I am alive and would make things more difficult. Like this there would be less doubt in her mind," Penny nodded her head. historical

Seeing Caitlin settle in the guest room, Penny went back to her own room which was Damien's room. Going to the bed, she fell flat on it.

The bed felt cold as it had not been used for several days now and even though it felt cold, it felt nice enough that she stretched her arms and legs without removing the shoes that she was still wearing. The weather in the Bonelake had not changed much and it was still cloudy and dark. Dark clouds that had turned dark which would soon start clas.h.i.+ng against each other. The air was cold which was a beacon that rain was right around the corner.

The Quinn's mansion had turned to home, with Damien here and the days she had spent, she started to drift off to sleep with her head lulling to sleep even though she had spent most of her time sleeping in the carriage. Getting all the sleep she had missed the previous days.

Penny who had been unlocking every spell by herself by the use of Lady Isabelle's books wasn't aware that every time she used a new spell, her mind gave bits and pieces of her memories back to her.

Her mind drifted further and farther away from the present and the more she fell into the spell of sleep, the closer she got to the part of her memory which she had been trying to find.

It took her to a hill where she was walking with a bucket in her hand that creaked with every step she took. The weather was far or less the same as the present, the wind blowing her skirt behind where Penny had to quickly move her legs so that she could get back home before the sky would start pouring the rain like any other day of Bonelake.
