Over it she wore a dark brown leather corset vest, laced tightly in the front, hugging her front and offering both form and function . Under she had slim and Flexi trouserss tucked into leather boots, her hair was braided neatly back, practical and battle ready. She was confident because she already had skills necessary for sword fighting. As she came out of her room, two handsome vampire soldiers were standing waiting for her,“ Hello, who are you guys? I've never seen you two before ” Tara asked the men“ My lady, I am Lamiel and this is Flok. We are your personal soldiers, we have always been near you since you came here but we have been discreet.

After her experiment was done, she lit the candle and the scent of the flower was smelt. Sienna and the maids were beyond shocked“ this is .. is beautiful and brilliant sister in law ” Sienna praised with eyes full of admiration for Tara“ Yes my lady,.. this is good, it smells good and the colour is good too ” Gina praised too“ yes, now we can make more of t

“ if your enemies find out about this you know they will use that to destroy you and even lady Tara , you know that brother ” Sienna spoke with anger and dashed to her chamber“ What punishment? ”Tara looked at Xavier with a confused expressionXavier didn't know how to explain this, he passed her and went to his room, Tara also went to her room with her maids.
