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.

His- Part 2

"A small piece should be enough demonstration of your skills, Lady Shirley," the Lord changed his words with a gentle smile on his lips.

Vivian who stood behind Leonard peeked to see the Lady smile queasily. For a person who had lied and claimed something which wasn't hers, Vivian didn't need to know that the Lady didn't know how to knit. With everyone's eyes on the Lady, the distress was showing up clear on her pretty face.

Vivian's eyes kept going back and forth between the people and Lady Shirley who were anticipating for her to start knitting. The Lady had tried working both the needles together but every time she tried moving it, it would only end up tangling with each other.

When a good minute passed with Lady Shirley trying to get it the needles working with the wool which only failed with every try, few of the people in the room couldn't hide their amusement.

"Ah, I think I am unable to get it right today," said Lady Shirley with an uneasy smile.
