Early chapter since I'm travelling this weekend. ;)copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WUgZkbgC8
" Well then, shall we get you dressed?" he says, unaware of my thoughts.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡE65tv7xggi
" 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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSAwKNfa2F
" 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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5BulAPwRr
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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡFwyKZ3Rwj7
He tossed me a light tan dress which I usually wore under other dresses, & turned expectantly.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡOH0odKbtVe
My eyes widened.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8vjJ0FkPcb
" That's it? What about the rest of my garments?"copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRHPBHTtdd
" 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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡB2UBq7mCAh
" But Hermes & his parents are coming later, I can-not go with them in this garb."copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJNbsOQME2
" We can return & you can change for the view making of that buffoon later, silly."copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡYVTGLvnEZA
" If you say so."copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡSACMc3UyGv
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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxeEIHsyu6
" Peregrine!"copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡBs1v8N0vsZ
" Yes, darling?"copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6kAJ6MN1lt
Darling?!copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡwb0KPIsihW
" Who are you call making darling?! I am engaged to someone else! Button my dress."copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡoSpqnxdo3G
I step out from the blinds & turn around, hold making my curly hair up so he can button the dress.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡoa0YT7LG86
" & do not call me darling."copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Fiaq8SSqa
" 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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡOP2efqMtOP
Here we go with this discussion again. We have been having it exceedingly often as of late.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9d0acUiXAq
" 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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4K6nVwwNoX
" 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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡYdM0r2qdvf
" 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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ft3QFX8Dy
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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡzIjF5ebC2A
My breath making stops for a second, in apprehension.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡz0Nl1fossT
Then, my IEMP makes an awfully loud growl making noise.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡIwzbzpQxyt
He blinks, his lips close, & the flames clear. After another moment of silence, he speaks.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ57bpNhDZTG
" Let us go & pack some breakfast." He says, completely changing the subject.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡztHnOICca5
So much for creating all that suspense.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6SBG3b5UJE
He comes, holds out his hand as a peace offer-making.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPLzezQSyK
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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7dfv2Y7f9
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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡdm1P2518ZK
Astound-makingly, he lifts his head, & smiles.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnzyXO7NGF
Mock smiles.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡyfNMviPtq4
You had not seen a mock smile until you see Peregrine smile when he has been caught unaware & is plan-making revenge.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDrEttKuCK
" I see you got your little Tesla switch to work, eh, darling?"copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo7OX4C5Sj
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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡLryyd4Q2yh
" 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 protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bVyPo2ATE
" I see. Well, shall we go prepare our luncheon, darling?"copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡk83sW0xz5q
I struggled to keep my composure.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQSrp6vg93
" Absolutely, we really should be go making if we are to return in time."copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡxgesP4RRFK
He comes over, loops his arm in mine, & starts skip-doing away, dragging me with him.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0SzsOz0nF
So childish.copyright protection78ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgwjHVpdcy
