The day felt short, walking around the hallways and getting familiar of my surroundings with Ashton. Soon enough I was back in my bed chambers with Hannah, preparing for night.
"Hannah?" I ask her.
"Yes, my Lady?"
"Those two young girls from the kitchen earlier today," I say. "There was one who looked at me as if I had angered her."
"Mary Beth," Hannah confirms.
"Yes, her. Why did she react that way?"
"Well," Hannah says, slowly. "Mary Beth has always had an infatuation with Lord Ashton."
"What does that have to do with me?" I ask.
"I am sure you have heard words around the castle halls about Lord Ashton and his, uhh," she stutters. "friends."
"So, he is very friendly with the women," I growl, a little harsher than I would've liked to
