Bloody hands- Part 1

Seeing Warren aim at the animal that was standing at a far distance from where they stood, Heidi scrunched her face readying herself to the oncoming gun shot from the shotgun. As the sound of gunshot echoed through the quiet forest.

"Your shot was way off the mark," Timothy said to Warren, looking at the black buck escape from their sight. Timothy Rufus was a friend of Lord Nicholas whom she had met at the theater.

"You have fallen behind on your skills, Warren. At this rate you will only become a victim," his mother, Venetia chastised him, who was as strict as ever.

Today, the lord and the others had decided to go hunting in the forest and Heidi had joined them, sitting alone on the horse like the rest of the party. She wasn't thrilled to watch an animal die right in front of her but remembering the lord's words on hypocrisy she closed her mouth not adding any comments of her own, especially when she had her future mother-in-law who was watching her actions closely.
