Bambi and the Duke

Disowned for being a human, Vivian was taken in as a maid at the age of seven by the Carmichael household. Serving one of the most respected and elite pureblood families in Bonelake, there were rules. Rules that must be followed by all servants and maids. Like everyone else, Vivian was repeatedly reminded not to disobey the rules. But before she could learn to blend into the background like the other servants, the Duke's young son calls to her, “Bambi.” And all hell breaks loose. ----- "What? Never seen a bruise before?" Leonard scoffed at the girl. "Does it hurt?" Vivian asked, gently kneeling beside him and examining the several bruises covering his face. "Not that much." Remembering what her mother used to do when she got a bruise, Vivian brought her sleeve to her mouth and blew warm air on it before placing it on the boy's cheek, taking him by surprise. Leonard swatted her hand away, a hint of pink appearing on his cheeks embarrassed, "W-what are you doing?" "Mama told me this will make the pain go away," the girl held her hand close to her chest as she shared her past memory. "I’m not a child!” Leonard huffed at her. “I don’t think you’re a child,” she stared at him with a crystal-clear gaze. Taken aback, Leonard locked eyes with her for two seconds before shaking his head. “Don’t worry about it. They’ll heal in a day or two anyways," he reassured her before getting up and taking a seat at the table where his books were placed. "Odd girl," he muttered to himself as he pulled the top book from the stack and lost himself in it.

Funeral- Part 1

"Why didn't you tell me about this, Aunt Priscilla?" asked Leonard to find his aunt sighing as she looked at the mansion that stood tall.

Aunt Priscilla spoke, "We didn't find about it until we received your letter about Mr Wells thoughts. Charlotte spoke about the boy for the first time. I never knew anything about it, I doubt anyone did," the vampiress frowned her words soft and feeble due to the loss of her daughter, "Her father didn't approve of it when she brought it up. He...he hasn't seen the humans in the eye after what happened with Julliard and the others; he was trying to protect her," her words trailed which was filled with pain.

Leonard quietly listened to his aunt speak and then asked, "Did she run away? Did she run away from the house?" not receiving an immediate answer he repeated his question.
