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.

It could have been...perfect world? -Part 3

It wasn't just the man grimacing but Vivian too for such a simple scene to be caused by the bee.

If her mother saw what happened, she was sure she would be scolded once she would get home, "Are you alright, Leonard?" asked a woman who had come along with the man who Vivian had just collided with. The man rubbed his chin and then narrowed his eyes at Vivian for causing trouble.

Taking two steps back this time, Vivian bowed her head again for her sudden behaviour. The damn bee! scolded Vivian in her head. If she could she would roast all of the bees so that they wouldn't attack her every time one came near her. 

"I apologize for..." for hitting your head? no no that would sound bad, thought Vivian in her head, "What just happened," she kept her voice low not wanting to attract any attention to her but the people around had already noticed and so did her family.
