CAMILLA’S POV

“Wait he really… apologised?”. Lucy asked in confusion after I narrated me and Baron’s conversation from the previous day.

She found it so hard to believe. But could I blame her? It was Baron Henshaw afterall. He was ruthless and unforgiving. So naturally him apologising was a sight to behold. I wasn’t buying it though.

“I don’t think he was being sincere”. I said calmly

“Why?” Lucy asked

“I don’t know. But how does a person go from being a tyrant to begging for forgiveness? It doesn’t add up”.

I was still trying to understand the whole situation. It just didn’t make sense.

“Maybe he’s being sincere. You did save his life afterall”. She replied as we made our way to the garden.

“That’s it! He was vulnerable. I mean anyone in my position could’ve easily harmed him. Maybe he was trying to avoid that.”

Lucy looked at me like I was crazy.

“That’s a stretch don’t you think Camilla. Look what you need right now is to clear your head and not think about it too much. Else it’ll

  • Beauty And The Baron   CHAPTER THIRTEEN: CAMILLA

    BARON’S POV“Your condition is improving significantly Mr. Henshaw. I’m amazed at how fast you’re recovering”. My doctor said enthusiastically as he finished checking my vitals for the day.I gave him a slight nod and a faint smile. I did feel a lot better than before, no doubt Camilla’s doing. “That’s good to hear Doctor Barnes.” I replied.“You’d still need some much needed rest though. So maybe take another week off work”. He suggested as he packed his things getting ready to leave.“Is that necessary? I mean I’ve already been away for a whole week already.” I askedI couldn’t stay that long away from work. Especially after the incident that occurred that night.“Mr. Henshaw, it's really not up for debate. You’ve recovered but you still need time away from work. Please consider your health.”. He said worriedlyI sighed and nodded.“Alright Doctor”. I said and he nodded with a small smile.“Alright I’ll be on my way then, a lot of work needs to be done at the hospital today so i

  • Beauty And The Baron   CHAPTER TWELVE- HIS BRUISES (2)

    CAMILLA'S POV Baron's condition got better after the doctors properly treated him. But he had to be put on bed rest for a week.He assigned me to take care of him throughout that week and at first I thought it would only lead to arguments and screaming but he was surprisingly calm. Even when I made stupid mistakes. It was … unusual.It almost felt like he was warming up to me or something.Hmph.But that was a silly thought, a stupid one too. It would be nearly impossible for that to happen. He was just sick.On the third day of his bed rest I brought his lunch to his room. I set it on the mini wooden table on his bed and turned to leave.“Dont go yet.”. His voice came up behind me stopping me. It wasn't cold nor was it icy. His voice was warm and calm. Was I dreaming? I mean it had to be a dream, right?I turned to look at him with a confused look plastered all over my face.He gestured towards the chair next to his bed for me to sit. I gulped and walked over nervously, counting m

  • Beauty And The Baron   CHAPTER ELEVEN- HIS BRUISES

    CAMILLA'S POVWait.. what?!Baron was holding the side of his stomach which was oozing with blood while two other guards supported him.They took him up to his bedroom and laid him flat on his bed. “Do your best to treat him or something. Just keep him alive. We can't get a hold of any nurses right now.”. The guard said and went out to find a solution.I looked over at Baron who was in so much pain. It was only him and I in the room.Not so tough now aren't you.But why was he in such a state?I hesitated a bit. I stared at the first aid kit that I held in my hand and then my gaze went back to Baron struggling for his dear life as he laid helplessly on his bed. What if I chose to not help him?He had made my life miserable for the past three months and now the only thing standing between him and death was… me.I felt like turning back, leaving his room and leaving him there to die. But why was I walking towards his bed? Setting up the first aid kit and tending to his wounds. I coul

  • Beauty And The Baron   CHAPTER TEN- LIFE IN THE MANSION

    CAMILA'S POV A friend…Growing up I didn't have many friends. The few friends I managed to make were always afraid of coming to my house. Because of my father. I couldn't invite friends over. He prohibited it. My mom often protested against it but it didn't change anything. I wasn't allowed to go over to their place either. So the friendships never really lasted.After all, no one wanted to be friends with the antisocial creep with a mean father.In middle school I naturally became a shy person and just stayed in my shell. I didn't try making friends, there was no need. My only friend was my mother.Lucy.I honestly didn't know what to expect from this… new found friendship. Especially since she was another maid in the mansion.The first few days after that faithful day were the best I'd ever had. She was sweet, kind and always had something encouraging to say. She'd sneak in some food for me late at night and we'd talk till we got tired. She also taught me how to not get in t

  • Beauty And The Baron   CHAPTER NINE- LUCY

    CAMILLA'S POV I felt a palm caress my cheek. I folded under the touch, it was so soft and comforting. I opened my eyes slowly and saw my mother staring back at me, smiling from ear to ear. A sense of joy overwhelmed me and I hugged her immediately. Tears streamed down from my eyes to my cheeks.“Mom it's you, it's really you”. I said as I held her tightly.She ran her hands through my hair and kissed my forehead.“How are you my darling?”. She asked in a soothing voice“I'm better now that I'm with you. I couldn't bear to stay in that place any longer. It was horrible”. I said as I recounted the horrors I encountered in Baron's mansion. As long as I was with her I'd be safe. The question was where was I?.I figured the attempt was successful. Does that mean I was dead? And she was dead too? I thought to myself as I looked up at my mother.“Mom.. am I… dead?”. I asked curiously. “Not exactly”. She answered calmly.“Where are we? Are you… are you even real”She smiled faintly. “Y
