When Dana heard about Elizabeth Jason who was now a sister of her in this life, Daisy Williams Beaumont, her heart accelerated shuddering in terror.
No, this is not right. she fought the urge to put both her hands inside her mouth, however the expression on her face showed fear.
The Marchioness pitied her daughter, thinking she has triggered some of her forgetful memories, causing her to tremor. Her pale hand went to grab Dana's pales one, "Daisy will be here for some months, I sent her a letter when you're unconscious, she did not reply that one. But when I sent another one when you woke, I received her letter saying she will be coming to check you along with her husband, you shouldn't worry much about it, everything will be fine"
Dana nods, not like she was convinced, her face was replaced with a weak smile, nonetheless, she has to face her fear.
"You've changed" the Marchioness whispered while caressing Dana's hand.
"Me?" when Lady Edwina hummed in response, Dana inquired again, "how?"
"You're so distance and barely speak. You spoke when you feel it was necessary, your eyes are cold and your expression is always stoic, your assigned maids were always scared of approaching you, although you never shout or yell at them, you scared them away with the look on your face. It scares your father and I, we hope for a new change and now God has given us that, however, it comes with consequences judging by your lost memories"
Dana continued to behold her mother's gaze, so she was brought to this life against her will, because of the devastated parent who wished for some changes in their daughter. How lovely!.
"Am I what you want, I mean were the changes good or opposite"
In a flat tone, the Marchioness began, "we missed the old you but we very much adores this new self of you. As a mother I felt close to you now, in the past I could count the words we shared, you hate when I caresses you or hugged, you hate being touched. A chance was granted to me that abides me to do all those things now, I love you Dana"
She was touched, and this brought a lovely smile on Dana's face, no, she was permitted to experience this too, she wasn't brought here against her will but with purpose.
"When the healer told us about your memories to be gone, we were afraid and hope it wasn't true, however when you told me yourself, your father suggested we assigned you a governess. Therefore, report to me when you noticed some changes from your governess"
Unsure why her mother said that, but Dana nodded anyway, Lady Edwina get down from the bed, she bend her body lower and placed a kiss on her daughter's forehead.
However, during this, Lady Edwina noticed what she has failed to, two days ago, it was Dana's skin.
It might sounds stupid to one's ear, how could a mother unnoticed the changes in her daughter. Well, Lady Edwina was used to seeing the pale skin of Dana, however now that she's human her skin was to shift into humans natural skin. But, this went unrecognizable by the Marchioness, until now.
She keep her newfound to herself, and decided to speak with the Marquee about her discovery.
For the whole night, Dana was tossing around on her bed, and couldn't get a wink of sleep as her conversation with Lady Edwina about Liza continuously keep occuring to her mind.
When morning arrives, Dana slowly opened her eyes widely on the ceiling of her room, the dark circles around her eyes were proof to her lack of sleep and her brown hair were tangled in each other, it was messy and the sight of Dana in the early morning was frightening.
"I need to see Amyas" she told herself in a guttural tone, and lazily let herself down from the bed with a grunt, "Amyas! I need to see you! I command you to come right now!!" huffed in frustration when nothing happened, and fan her face with her hand.
"He'd fucking told me he will be here whenever I called out for him!"
"Why are you so impatient?" a fruity voice spoke behind her, and she jerked her whole body to the direction.
In contact with her face, Amyas sarcastically commented with a sly smirk, "What a great sight to behold"
"I didn't summoned you here to pick on me, what in the fucking hell round world is happening!" she demanded with so much boldness.
"May God forgive you" he beg off on behalf of her, while walking to where she was and innocently seeked, "what's happening in the world?" she continued to eyed him,
Amyas dramatically look out of her window, and returned his gaze to her, "The world seems all right to me, except for one person"
Dana glared at him, "you knew all along Liza is my sister here, and you decided to keep such information away from me, yet you called yourself a Guardian angel. How lovely!"
"With such audacity of yours, It could be wise if you can use it on other things" he advised.
Dana scrutinized on the Guardian angel who maintained a calmly expression, "are you implying I'm a nincompoop?" she queried clenching her teeth in displeasure,
Instead, Amyas dismissed her query, he move to the window, his eyes settling on the tall trees surrounded the manor, "only if you could focus on what's around you, a lot of discovery and achievement would be made" he advised, and added, "have you ever questioned yourself what could be lurking behind those trees?" he twisted his neck so that he could glance at Dana who was looking at him with an intensity gaze.
"Well I don't, I'm sure you knew much than I do",
He averted his gaze from her, his eyes narrowing on the tall trees, "observe and be careful, being your Guardian angel doesn't implied me to be there for you all the time"
Dana twitched her mouth in a mocking way, "Bullshit" she mumbled in a way he wouldn't hear her and left where she was standing, to have her back lean on the bedside drawer.
"I shall take my leave now" he told her, his back view facing her,
Dana shrugged in great exasperation, "why can't you just stay with me"
When he turned around, one of his brow was raised at her said proposal, "stay with you?".
She irritably pinched between her eyebrows realizing he misunderstood her, "I mean to be my guard, isn't that's what you are supposed to do" she corrected herself.
"I apologized borehand, I have no intention of being with you"
His word incite a leap in her heart, instantly making her cheeks went red, she quickly look away hiding her face from him, knowing exactly her innocent Guardian angel wasn't self aware of what he uttered has affected her.
"You either need a reason for me to be around you or you forget about the idea" haven said that he vanished as if he wasn't there in the first place.
'I apologized borehand, I have no intention of being with you'
The fruity tone of Amyas saying that pop in her head, it feels like a rejection, a love rejection.
She don't know why she recalled it, on a contrary she hated that her brain recalled it and wanted to scream out of embarrassment, however she couldn't, when a knock on the room door interrupted her,
"My lady, it's me, Thea" her maid called outside the room.
She exhale deeply, and again glared at the window where the angel stood moment ago, she humphed and matches to the door with fisted hands.
When Dana opened it, her eyes landed on her maid who was smiling but her expression instantly changed to shocked when she saw her.
Thea quickly bow realizing she was gaping at Dana in shocked, and politely greeted, "Good morning my lady"
"Morning" Dana managed to answer through her teeth, she's fucking loosing it, why is her maid giving her that look.
She left the door to the nearby mirror in the room.
When Dana spotted her ghostly self standing before the mirror, a yelp escaped from her throat in shocked, and her palm quickly went to cover her mouth.
Now that she remembered the sarcastic remark made by Amyas, a groaned emitted from her in embarrassment.
"Fuck you" she cursed him, under her breathe, while facepalming.
Thea stifled a smile forcing to surface on her face,at the sight of her Lady dramatic manner. She closed the door behind her and pointed out, "looked like you haven't had enough sleep my lady" .
"Oh no" Dana whimpered "I need to bathe right away Thea" she ordered and Thea was quick to darted into the bathroom.
In a meantime, Dana was dressed in a silky smooth gown, which was a high collard, and her brown hair was let down. She hummed in satisfaction with her messy appearance vanished.
The soft clicking of Dana shoes could be heard on the marble floor, going to the direction of dining room direction, while Thea tag along behind her.
Upon entering the dining room, she made her presence known by bowing politely at her parent in forms of greeting and took her seat next to her mother's.
Done with their breakfast, the Marquee bade his farewell and went to work, while Dana was dragged back to her room against her will, on her mother's command, it was quite surprising though, because she already planned to tour the manor with her maid before the arrival of her governess, Miss Florence.
Whereas the minutes were passing away in high-speed, Dana was growing restless with each passing seconds, she lifted her bum and stride to the door with the intention to open it, only for the door to be pushed and her mother, Lady Edwina entered behind her was a man in a daytime vest, with his pot belly protruded.
The man was squabby and has a gentle appearance, he had a round face adorned with a pointed nose, and a thin moustache laced under his nose curling upward, down to his chin was a small beard, his red eyes occupied on her.
Swiftly dawning his appearance, Dana acknowledged, "Mother" Lady Edwina meet her by having her hands grabbing Dana's own, "I have a good news"
The young lady curiosity piqued, she raised a brow and urged, "what's that?"
Lady Edwina happily declared, "I think there's a way to bring you back to vampire"
Dana's eyes almost popped out of their socket, she instinctively snatched her hands away shaking her head in refusal, hell no! This is not happening!.
Her lips quivers, she stuttered in disbelief lost at words"Vamp-How?!".
"Your skin proves it" Lady Edwina pointed out, going back to grab Dana's shoulder not concerning herself with the flabbergasted look on her daughter's face, with hope she continued, "the man here will help you" motioning to the man behind her.
Colour drains out of Dana's face, this will not happen! She needs help, where's Amyas!.
However her brain reminds summoning him is a foolish idea, because the only thing he could offer was advise. By saying this is what fate has stored for her.
If so, then what kind of scary things does fate stored ahead for her. She's really going to commit suicide if this short man here turned her into a vampire.
The thought of drinking blood and sucking it from a human neck had her feel nauseated and sick at the same time. Right now, she's the only one who could help herself.
"Mother I don't think this is a good idea" Dana try convincing her mother.
Lady Edwina however wasn't persuaded, "Williams approved of it, come, Mr Finn" urging the man to come closer.
Dana was gobsmacked with what was occuring before her, Lady Edwina made her sit on the bed edge where she sitting before, and Mr Finn come to hold her hand in his.
Mr Finn shift back her long sleeve away, flipping her hand over and have his chubby middle and index fingers placed on her wrist to feel her pulse.
Dana almost roll her eyes noticing how he concentrated by closing both eyes while moving his lips, speaking in fuzzy. She restlessly waited for him to get done with whatever he's feeling from her veins, because resisting the urge to smack his baldhead keep infuriating her.
Whereas Lady Edwina stood aside looking at the man checking her daughter, with a hopeful expression, when she noticed Mr Finn let go of Dana's hand her eyes darted to him in anticipation.
Mr Finn turned in a gentle manner, he informed, "I need a cup of blood"
Dana stuttered "B-blood!", her eyes on Lady Edwina, and inquired in a tight tone, "what did he need blood for, mother?"
Instead, Mr Finn answered, glancing at her over his shoulder, "I need it to prove something"
Dana gave him a harsh once-over look, as if her eyes were going to fall out any seconds. When he looked away, she glared at his back and mumble incoherently.
Lady Edwina nodded at Mr Finn, and stated, "I will have someone bring it" she turned to the door and called, "Beatrice!" when the door pushed opened, her mother's personal maid entered and bowed, "get me a cup of blood, now!".
After a while the maid came back with a cup of blood, Mr Finn collected the cup and turned, only to have his hand stretched towards Dana. While the maid, named Beatrice leave the room and close the door.
"Have a sip my dear," he sweetly commanded.
Dana at the sight of the blood, move backward covering her nose, shutting her nostrils tightly with her fingers.
"Put it away!" she muffled her eyes tearing up.
Lady Edwina gape in surprise at her daughter's reaction, still, in the next minute Dana slapped Mr Finn's hand and dashed to the bathroom in a flash.
"Oh my!" The Marchioness covered her mouth with wide eye, at the sight of the splattered blood on the floor, some on the bedsheets and on the portly vampire, who was in shocked on spotting his stained clothe.
Lady Edwina offered him an apology look and pace to the bathroom door where she could heard a gurgling sound coming from.
When the door opened, Lady Edwina move back. Noticing the sour look on her daughter. She fixed her eyes on Dana unblinkingly with concerned.
"Dana" Lady Edwina called in a whisper trying to hold her daughter's hand,
However Dana slipped away her hand, and spoke in wheezy voice.
"Miss Florence will be here in any minute" using that as an excuse to leave the room because of the nasty smell wafting.
The Marchioness tried speaking "Darling I need-" before she could get out anymore words, Dana was gone and the door slammed shut.
Thea was quick to follow her lady who was walking in so much haste to the direction of the library. Although she noticed some emotional changes coming from her lady, she didn't comment on it and quietly followed.
Dana wasn't sure if she could ever sleep in her room again, the scent of the blood was still lingering in her sense organ, even with how she tried to prevent herself from inhaling the bloody smell.
Upon reaching the library, she saw her governess standing in front of the shelf going through a book, today she was dressed in a red knee length ruffled skirt, with a dark greened blouse, neatly tucked inside her skirt. And today, with her hair tied in a messy bun.
Dana cleared her throat, getting her governess attention.
When Miss Florence spotted the young lady of the manor, she politely bowed, "I apologize for coming late today"
Though Dana wasn't aware of the fact, since she was captivated in her room for a while, she offered a smile which look different on her today as if forced. Miss Florence noted.
"I suppose you have a reason for that, we all do" she reasoned and move her feet toward one of the chair in the library.
"My cat was sick"
A little surprised, Dana stopped on her track and turned her whole body facing the governess, she remarked, "I didn't expect a blunt governess like you to have a soft spot for animals not to mention, a cat".
"I may be crude, but not heartless, they are varied my lady" Miss Florence retorted in the same tone.
"Oops my bad" Dana blurted as if felt bad by her own comment, but Miss Florence knew better.
"You must've had a sweet night, you look energetic" the governess tone lacing with sarcasm.
Dana smiled at the statement made by her bold governess, she closed the space between her and the chair by having her bottom on it. Relaxed, she replied, "I do"
Miss Florence gave a curt nod, in a firm tone she said, "fine, let's begin the lesson?"
