BLEEDING

Even young noble children would at least complain once or twice as they were getting a new wardrobe of clothes. What about these children who had been adopted from who knows where. They had been prepared to go back to other noble women and gossip about how the great guild mistress had adopted three children from unknown origin who had no manners and did not even know how to carry themselves.

However, what was this? This girl was way too behaved. Even when they 'accidentally' pulled on her hair or 'accidentally' pinched her shoulders or thighs, she did not utter a word of complaint. In fact, she looked down at them from her high position, and it was almost as if her red eyes were mocking them for the lame attempt at making her lose her wits.
