Early chapter since I'm travelling this weekend. ;)copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡSma7Hu9Epx
" Well then, shall we get you dressed?" he says, unaware of my thoughts.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡexcLLkHuAD
" Yes." I say, but sit on the bed & bury my head in my hands. Why must people always insert such awful things into my IEMP?copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1mxSgTajp
" None of that, now, come on, up we go!" He untangles my hands from my hair, hoists me up & into a stand making position.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡycMJkuet8D
He leads me over to my wardrobe, dig-doing through my clothes, remind making me of the day my sister & I left our parent's house, & how she had rifled through my clothes much similar to the way Peregrin was currently.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1nad8WyQr8
He tossed me a light tan dress which I usually wore under other dresses, & turned expectantly.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡud9QL27Edq
My eyes widened.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4MDRvXmJru
" That's it? What about the rest of my garments?"copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtSxH1ufRV
" We're only walk making around our gardens. Nobody other than a few palace servants should see us. Besides, you already have your poofy underthings on."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡom9ycVAjAO
" But Hermes & his parents are coming later, I can-not go with them in this garb."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡKEBow6lSQN
" We can return & you can change for the view making of that buffoon later, silly."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡmdhfLYgfd8
" If you say so."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡbCulaGgL0Q
I go behind the chang making curtain & am suddenly quite aware that Pippin is in the room. Why must my sister make me think of such things? I was perfectly fine with chang making behind the blinds until a few minutes ago. copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLva91hvU7
" Peregrine!"copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡjglAw6yMmM
" Yes, darling?"copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡUyooTy5aj6
Darling?!copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SRw30ykws
" Who are you call making darling?! I am engaged to someone else! Button my dress."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPJNpfUX2h
I step out from the blinds & turn around, hold making my curly hair up so he can button the dress.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWP7lJGqTZ
" & do not call me darling."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡwUSnrWo0gU
" Oh? Last time I checked, he most definitely did not call you darling, & what's more, neither of you decided to be engaged, much less with each other."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJJcx8ss6u
Here we go with this discussion again. We have been having it exceedingly often as of late.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQryYMiEcb
" It is my duty to marry Hermes. perchance he does not call me darling, but, all the same, that should not mean that you can go about call making me darling. My darling sister did had a point, you had got to admit. What would happen if it the word got to Hermes's parents that I was "more than friends" with you? They already went through enough shame when they discovered my sister & I ran away from our parent's home. They had been gracious enough to not withdraw their offer of marriage."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ6w7yswyJ
" Ara! Think! What is it that you get through such an arrangement? What is the good? What benefits you in the least? What good could possibly ever come out of your marrying him? You get nothing! Nothing at all!"copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡq2saf0jHsq
" I will live comfortably. His family is quite well off. Besides, who else could possibly lower themselves to the point of marrying a woman which has nothing at all to her name except a title. Duchess, indeed, but with not even a single bit to her name. Added to that, the disgrace of having run away from her parental home with her sister. Someone that has these unnatural changes to their body, part machine. Think about that Peregrine. Who could possibly want me?"copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡccgELeq3SD
He stays silent, but I can see his eyes burn-doing, the fire in his hazel eyes spark-making. I feel that if he says something in that moment, I will most definitely be burned, & yet another thing will change in how I view him. Yet another change will occur that cannot be undone. He opens his mouth to speak.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwnl2uUv0t
My breath making stops for a second, in apprehension.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡervHBKIVsa
Then, my IEMP makes an awfully loud growl making noise.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEnBi8QJcI
He blinks, his lips close, & the flames clear. After another moment of silence, he speaks.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡnreKNheHMf
" Let us go & pack some breakfast." He says, completely changing the subject.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡa0GGIiqqdT
So much for creating all that suspense.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡByyYaR70Aj
He comes, holds out his hand as a peace offer-making.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡJXLXHyfWf2
I smile sweetly, scratch at & reach out my left hand, causing him to quickly switch h&s to accommodate. We shake hands, & I frown for a split-second.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡbq3R6L9xbn
Then it kicks in, my pointer finger releases a slight electric charge, & gives off a slight electric shock, causing Peregrine to jolt his hand, release doing mine. I grin, snicker-making at my success, & wait for his response.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNWYL6PT6q
Astound-makingly, he lifts his head, & smiles.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPoYN5w32M
Mock smiles.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dc85iUeQ6
You had not seen a mock smile until you see Peregrine smile when he has been caught unaware & is plan-making revenge.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgTyfFE5yL
" I see you got your little Tesla switch to work, eh, darling?"copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡvLBTJpZfs1
I almost blow at his call making me darling, but just in time, I catch it & hide it. He was probably try making to get a reaction out of me, well, he shan't have it.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1yeeHjxByn
" Yeah. I spent yesterday engineer making it. It could let out a larger shock if I needed it too. It looks pretty cool in the dark..."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaEBJUgnZP
" I see. Well, shall we go prepare our luncheon, darling?"copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9uAKokanAC
I struggled to keep my composure.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡpCbDQSXnuw
" Absolutely, we really should be go making if we are to return in time."copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡLdHqOqk5Oj
He comes over, loops his arm in mine, & starts skip-doing away, dragging me with him.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXOvIdPSAq
So childish.copyright protection172ＰＥＮＡＮＡv02HETABh5
