"What are you baking, beautiful Miss?" A husky voice whispered by her ear. Belle flinched and turned around immediately.

"Lord Norman" She bowed, throwing a nervous look at the other two servants who had just resumed to washing Vegetables after saying their greetings to the Lord not even paying attention to them, even if they were, they didn't show it.

" How are you Belle?" He asked with a doting smile.

"I'm doing great Sire, and you?" She said shyly.

"The same. So what are those?" He pointed to the small flat cakes

"They are cookies Milord" She replied immediately, smiling proudly at her handiwork. " Would you want try any?"

"Of course" He said.

"Go ahead then, give it a try" Belle urged. He picked up one of the cookies and took a bite. Chewing rather slowly as if trying to comprehend the ingredients used in baking the biscuits.

"How's it?" She asked eagerly, clasping her hands in excitement watching him eat.
