The Best
Adeline always hated nightmares. They reminded her of the monsters underneath her bed, grabbing at her ankles. She opened her eyes and instantly knew this was not reality.
Adeline felt the plush carpets underneath her feet, like the fur of a well-raised animal. Her eyes shakily landed upon the bright red carpets, her knees wobbling with the truth. Bright roses bloomed upon the edges of the rug with prickly thorn stems connecting the beautiful flowers.
This was the Kastrem Estate. It was a large and expansive mansion with six floors. It might as well have been classified as a castle, with how grand it was.
"This can't be." Adeline's entire shoulders began to tremble.
Not with fear or anger, but of sadness. It had been a while since she had set foot in this estate. The last time she had ever seen this rug was the day she fled from her home. It happened the day after her parent's funeral.
