"She didn't know who you were son, I wish I could do the damn same sometimes... You lay a hand on her and Belle over this and you shall have you allowance halved, do you hear me boy? I am not going soft, I am being fair to Belle who has been a good servant to us for years."
"I asked him... How may I help him... He yelled at me and went to strike me so I fell to the ground... He said he would hurt you but I begged him not to..."

"Soft father, more then soft" he said storming from the room though yelled back "BELLE"S ONLY BEEN HERE FOR HALF A YEAR AND ALREADY SHE'S GOT MORE SCARES THEN I CAN COUNT"
"H...he was going to hit you?" Belle questioned "I won't let that happen now please. Dry your tears and lets get to work."
She helped her sister to stand. "Maybe you should just stay here and in the gardens today, out of the masters way."

"I would appreciate that highly, thank you... Miss Belle" she said, cuddling her sister close as she looked up at her, smiling ever so slightly.

"Alright, now... let me show you to the garden" she said leading her outside. "YOu can wed this part here. If you need me I'll be around. I better tend to the master's meal before he blows his top" She ran from the garden then hoping that her sister would now be alright.

She nodded and immediately began to work, humming softly to herself as she did, having always loved working with flowers and plants all her life.
"Belle, are you down here?" Leroy asked, walking down the steps to the kitchen, sighing as he looked around

The master watched the newest maid from a window, he'd make her pay by god he's make her pay. His father had hurt Belle quite a number of times over the short time she had been at the manor and now...now it was his turn.
Having just fetched a bucket of water to clean up the mud his son had tracked in Belle answered. "Yes my lord. I'm right here" she said steeping out of the shadows.

Aurora knelt near the flowers as she weeded them, humming and singing softly to herself as she worked, tying her hair back more so as she did. She made sure not to disturb any woodland creatures who had made the garden their home.
"Put down that damn bucket and approach me girl, we must speak about your sister and quite urgently it would seem"

'Silly girl', he thought to himself. 'and Belle brought her here. Sister ha...nothing like her. Yet again, no one really could be'
Hearing the tone in his voice Belle placed the bucket down right away walking over to her lordship her eyes downcast, for now that her sister was safe she once more remembered her place. "Of course my lord. Though please, I must thank you for letting this accident slide, I promise to do better with her."

She walked over to the lake at the foot of the garden, singing more as she worked, laughing slightly as she watched the little frogs paddle about, seemingly dancing with the many exotic fishes within the water.
"Yes yes... But that is only one incident girl, I never ever allow two to pass... WHat are you offering in return for an easier time?"

He almost smashed the window as she watched her. His anger building. 'so she likes frogs hmm, maybe I should get her to catch them after all, there will be a few French men at the party tonight"
"Two my lord?" she questioned quite forgetting "I...I can only offer myself my lord, as always"

She sighed as she began to realign the gravel path, putting down fresh stuff as she did, trying to get as little of the dust on her as possible
"Yes, TWO!" He yelled, slapping her across the face "is this a bad habbit your sister brings out on you? Questioning me!"

"Yes, frog legs." He decided walking out into the garden now with a smile on his face.
Her head spun though she dear not let the pain show though her cheek quickly turned red. "I..I'm sorry my lord I do not mean to it's just, I'm not sure what I did to offend you and therefore can not fix it so I may once again please you."

"You bring your snot nosed sibling here who insults me and my son... And yet you cannot even think of what you have done"

"Well look whose learnt her place at last" He said looking upon her. "In the mud"
Anger fired in her soul she was used to him bringing her down but not her sweet dear sister. "I am sorry for that my lord. She is young and doesn't know all the ways of the manor yet. The matter of just a moment ago has left me in somewhat of a daze and therefore I can only think of my sisters mistakes that you so kindly said you'd overlook for just today."

She stayed silent as she kept on working, pretending he wasn't there, swallowing her fear
"I shall keep my word, Belle" he said, pinning her to the wall, pushing the sleves of her dress off of her shoulders "when you keep my bed warm
