A lady must always avoid unnecessary conversation such as gossiping. Faults you see in another need not to be discussed.

Silas plopped himself into a chair.
He placed his elbow on the table and rested his cheek on his palm. He looked at each and every one of us, still not lingering, just a passing stare. Waiting for us to do something.
He knows we can't speak unless asked. I could feel the rest of the consort's eyes on me, my fin
A lady must not speak unless asked. In the presence of others and no question arise, the art of listening must be mastered. Perfecting this skill will surely make you recognizable in society.✾After that eventful lunch, nothing of importance happened next.Before I knew it, a week has already passed. Karina still visits my room from time to time asking me if I ever need anything. I don't. I already had books and food, and a comfortable place to sleep.
A lady is required to take in suppressants that induce Amenorrhea to avoid unnecessary pregnancies as well as suppressants to avoid unnecessary shifting. They must also take state issued supplements for their well-being.✾"This is great tea, Amara! I couldn't even tell it was poisoned."Smirking, I stuck my chin out. This was just my third try and he already couldn't taste the bitterness of Wolfsbane. Compared to the others who’s more or less on their eight try, I was already able to make an unsubtle poison, subtle. It took me a few days to perfect it, but it w
A lady must always wait to be introduced first. They must present themselves to those superior to them with grace and a curtsy. A lady must never engage in a shaking of hands.✾Alpha Irvine is taller than how I expected him to be.I believe he stands at most 7ft tall. His muscles were burly and taut making his suit almost look like second skin. I was staring, that I know, but I couldn't help myself. A large scar runs from his forehead down to his left cheek. And the place where his left eyes is supposed to be lies a pale silver glass eye. He did look like someone who would kill a maid for just breaking plates. Just looking at him, you coul
A lady must always address those superior to them with titles such as Lady, Sir, Madame, etc. Never fail to flatter them when necessary.✾I was still staring out the window when Karina came marching in. I turn my head sideways and I see just how pale her face was, how her hands and whole body were visibly shaking, it seems like this is the first time she
A lady must be at the location an hour earlier and they are required to wear ball gowns of their Nation’s national colors.✾The paper in my hand weighed like a ton of rocks.Judging from the mix of intake and release of breaths inside the room, I can tell the locations varied greatly. I still haven’t looked up, I can’t tell much about how the others reacted. I’m still stuck staring at this piece of paper that would very well have an effect on my life. Or the remainder of it, I don’t think I would survive that long. No. Especially not here. Days after Silas mentioned t
Always check your back. Safety is your first priority.✾The first thing I notice is that from afar, the houses I see on the horizon looked like tiny rocks.I don’t know how far I am from the village, or how I could get there by just walking. I’m not sure what they injected me with but it might have a small dose of suppressant. I don’t feel the voice that I did last night. The supposed wolf inside me as what Silas had mentioned. I don’t feel anything but numbness. Everything feels like a dream.I look at the letter on my hand again and place it inside the rucksack. Sighing, I clenched my teeth and started walking. Taking not
One can easily tell a water's worth when a well is dried out.✾The night was cold as it was harsh.I’ve read in one of my books that since the sun is gone, the heat with it leaves too. The sand and gravel that is around this whole landscape acts like a mirror for the sky. I find myself shivering and hugging myself for warmth. Even the small lamp didn’t offer any sort of comfort. Kofi seemed like he was alright, though, although he was shivering, it wasn’t as much as I was.I’ve set the straw mat on the farthest side of the hut and I was currently sitting on it. While Kofi was looking through the tool box, he’s been at it for a few minutes now. Speaking at me every now and then, forgetting that we didn’t speak the
The eyes are the windows to the soul. Stare hard and clearly see what one wants to say from within.✾Judith giggles like a school girl beside me.I turn my head sideways to look at her and much like a school girl, she was blushing too. She looked younger than she did when she was nagging me back at the well. “He just couldn’t stay away from that little boy. Always gotta keep coming back.”‘Han’ was crouching down now, no longer looking at me, he was ruffling Kofi’s hair, talking to him. Even with my senses, I couldn’t quite hear him. And that’s an odd thing to happen. Consor
