Trip (4)

Seven hours passed by and the two carriages were far out of Lockwood and in a neighboring town that looked nothing like Lockwood. From the trees to the way the houses were built, it was evident they were no longer in Lockwood. 

Alessandra was glued to the window, taking in everything as they passed by the homes and tried to spot where they would be staying. "How many times do you travel to stay here?"

"Two or three times a year. Mostly when it starts to snow as my grandmother has an annual winter party for all of the family to gather. A lot of my relatives would stay at her home so to get away from that, I bought a home."

"Servants are tending to it while I am not here. We should leave behind some clothes for you so you don't need to pack a lot of bags when visiting. Alfred and I have several clothes at all my homes so we can make a quick escape from Lockwood," said Edgar.
