Felicity made a sound of objection around her carrot before she swallowed, “You know better. Slow down or you’ll puke it all up.”
Tearing her roll in half Felicity then went to butter one half, her attention half on her food, half on April. “As for who is to inherit, it is not me.”
This was...
Annie returned the hug, squeezing April close the way she remembered her mom doing when she was younger. Even though their ages couldn’t be that far apart, Annie understood enough to know that hugs and family weren’t something that April grew up with. That she wanted a hug was big enough to the...

Untangling April’s hair was a slow task that Annie worked on, careful not to pull or snarl the hair more with aggressive strokes. She was glad to see that there weren’t any bugs of any kind, and though her hair had been in tangles that it was still clean to the root. Once brushed free, Annie...
“Thank you,” Annie said when April commented on her family, a smile curling her lips as she concentrated on washing April’s hair. “As for no one wanting you, you could think of it in another light, that you had to learn to trust in yourself and become what you are in order for the princess to...
Annie rolled up her sleeves and went to check the bath water as April stripped down. She allowed her the moment to part with her clothes, understanding what having little meant since she hadn’t always been a lady’s maid. Once April was in the water and under, Annie sat on a stool and used her...
“It’s not food,” Annie did her best not to laugh as she corrected April, but a small giggle did escape. Going to her she pointed to a few of the vials. “These are oils that soften the skin and perfume it. The salts are to help sore muscles.”
She picked up one jar of salts and opened it before...
Annie didn’t look the least bit annoyed with all of Annie’s questions and excitement. She drew the blue one out and set the others with the dresses she had brought. “The bath is in the bathing chamber, which is situated right over the kitchen so the fires can heat the water that sits in this...
Felicity laughed with April as she commented on wanting to try on her clothes, shaking her head a little with amusement. The amusement continued as April commented on the room’s color choice before apologizing. With a content sigh, Felicity gave April a quick hug. “I understand, and we’ll work...
The tinder had caught, keeping Felicity pinned to the fireplace as she waits for the tinder to burn up and catch fire to the logs, all while April stuttered and disagreed with the idea. Felicity blew out a breath before standing, facing April as she did. “First, it’s not an act of treason. My...
Felicity did her best not to track April’s movements. Not because she was afraid the girl would steal, to be fair April had said that she would if she got nervous and so Felicity was going to do her best not to be bothered by it should things turn up in odd places, but Letty wanted to see...
“Throw you out?” Felicity looked at April with surprise as she repeated the words before shaking her head. “No, I’m not going to just throw you out the door if all of this doesn’t work. I’d help you find… something. If not a nice family to work for then at least a good apprenticeship at a job...
“I hope it never comes to that,” Felicity said softly in reply to April’s declaration. She truly did. The thought of anyone dying for her was deplorable but a young girl that she had taken in off the streets, one she had become friends with and shared so much? Felicity wouldn’t find that...

When April produced the chain wrapped ring Felicity reached to her chest to feel where it ought to be before accepting it back. “Thank you.”
Her expression showed her surprise, and she was quiet a moment as she untangled the chain so the necklace could once more go around her neck. “It was a...
Felicity had wanted smart, and she would give it to April for questioning what seemed like an offer too good to be true. Pushing back her chair, she motioned towards the door. “Let us walk.”
It was more of a command than a suggestion, and soon Felicity would have April outside, taking her up...
The cook took a moment to beam at April for the praise of the food before going back to her work, a few of the girls that worked beneath her giggling as they peeked at April and Felicity sitting side by side. As for Felicity she ate, but at a slower rate than her new friend. More she watched...
“I hope you’re not dead, I do need you for more than a pretty red hair and fair skin.” Felicity paused in her teasing, looking at April as she looked at all the food that was being prepared. It was a lot, especially as there were a lot of people in the castle that had to be fed. Finally, she...
