" What did you think of yesterday's dinner? " Georgie asked as we were in the garden, enjoying the pleasant early October weather for some sketching.

The temperature would start dropping soon, and the Crawfords had already arranged some winter dresses for me.

The ball was in three days, making me increasingly anxious. It had been a month since I met Henry, and I felt more and more comfortable in this situation. Since Georgie revealed my issue with balls, Mrs. Cunningham always managed to arrange some gathering to take us to.

" It was pleasant; I met some new people " I shrugged, trying to focus on the bird I was struggling to draw.

" It was a pity Mr. Dashwood had another commitment " She commented, focusing on her own drawing.

" Yes, it was... " I deflected as I always did when she mentioned him.

" But I bet he'll show up for dinner tonight " She insisted. " It's the second day we haven't heard from him. I mean, we Crawfords, because I'm sure I saw Hill's nephew handi

    HenryI didn’t wait for a response, striding quickly toward Emma and taking her into my arms. Harriet stood up immediately, following close behind.“Henry?” Emma murmured uncertainly, struggling to focus her gaze on me.“Go quickly. I’ll handle these men,” George instructed, motioning toward two young gypsies restrained in a corner alongside the men accompanying Gillies.I pushed my way through the crowd, Harriet trailing close behind. Finally, I could take in the extent of the damage done to Emma. Dried blood stained the right corner of her mouth, and a series of bruises had already begun to form across that side of her face.“Henry…” she blinked, disoriented, wincing in pain.“Don’t try to speak,” I urged, carrying her toward my horse. “I’m here. You’ll be alright.”“No… you can’t…”“Emma, if I place you on the horse, can you manage to stay seated while I mount?” I asked, worry etched into my voice.“Mount first,” Willian Burkhart interjected, stepping closer. He must have arrived at

    Henry I was trying to concentrate on the letter I was answering while I waited for Mr. Martin, one of the local farmers who had arranged a meeting with me, but my mind kept returning to Emma. I should have insisted on accompanying her, even if I had to take Christopher and Kitty with us.I gave up what I was doing and started pacing back and forth in my living room. Why am I so bothered by this? Emma's right, Dyrham Park isn't far away, she must be with Georgiana by now.Perhaps I should go there, just to make sure everything is all right. Mr. Martin arrived for our meeting, forcing me to take my mind off Emma and devote my attention to the man in front of me. I tried my best to listen to his plans for expanding his farm, but I couldn't concentrate.As soon as he leaves here, I'll go to Dyrham Park, I won't let you go back to Casterly Park alone. I don't understand what's going on, but I feel something is wrong.A knock on the door echoed through the room, before Christopher opened

    EmmaI took a few shaky steps back.He was dead, what's going on?" Emma " He held my arms, assessing me " It's really you!" No... You're dead! " I exclaimed, trying to get free." I'm not dead. I managed to escape " he gasped " I wasn't the only one." What? " I repeated, blinking dazedly " Others survived?" What happened to you? " “We've been following you since Melrose. Lash saw you get into a carriage, but it took us a while to find out where you ended up.I couldn't answer. I continued to stare at him in confusion and disbelief. Was Lash alive too? How many survived?" Why are you dressed like that? " He grimaced." I live here now " I recovered my voice " Two gentlemen helped me escape and sheltered me." Sheltered you? " He growled " Are you living among the Gadjikanes¹?" I'm alive,” I retorted." “Good, then you can come with me,” he replied in a dangerous tone.Go away? Go back to being a gypsy, he meant? Could I do that? And Henry, would I leave him behind?" I can't " I

    EmmaWe left the house, walking through the gardens until we reached a secluded spot at the back of the property. When she saw that we were indeed alone, she sat down on a bench, urging me to do the same.I waited for her to say something, feeling a little anxious." Ms. Ferguson, we need..." I'm sorry " I interrupted her." “Wait for me to say what I want before you apologize, Emma.” She held back a smile." Yes, ma'am. " I bit my lip." You must have realized by now that Henry told me everything. " She took a deep breath " What you did was very serious and irresponsible!" Yes, I know..." You could have lost everything, Mrs. Ferguson " she continued, causing me to laugh nervously. Lost everything? As if I had much to lose. " Did I say something funny?" I have nothing left to lose, Mrs. Dashwood " I looked away " I have no family, no fortune, and that's the least damage to my reputation if they find out where I came from. " “I'm aware of your situation, Emma,” she assured me, “bu

    EmmaI did what Henry asked and managed to get to my room without attracting anyone's attention, despite my pounding heart. It had been like this since Henry woke me up, and I was sure he had used me and was kicking me out of his life for good, but after his brief explanation, I calmed down a bit, as much as possible.I carefully cleaned up all that blood, then got dressed. A feeling of guilt began to consume me. How will I face everyone knowing what I did? What will my conversation with Henry be like? What is he thinking about all this?I hope he was telling the truth when he said he loved me, because I certainly was sincere.I was considering whether or not to leave the room when a knock on the door startled me. Who could it be? Henry? I don't think the conversation would happen in my room. Did he ask someone to call me?I went to the door nervously, finding Katherine Dashwood standing there, holding what looked like some sheets."Mrs. Dashwood, what...""I don't have time right now
