“Well, Alanna, we have finally arrived,” the man in his twenties sitting beside Alanna spoke gently, casting an anxious glance her way. The richness of his voice, deep and husky, resonated in the carriage, causing Alanna’s slender body to tremble ever so slightly. A month-long stay awaited her, or rather, a lifetime in this place.
Before her eyes stood a magnificent, old-fashioned mansion, proudly erected upon an expansive piece of land. The black, stately two-headed carriage passed through the grand main gate, venturing further into the estate.
As they approached the entrance of the historic mansion, the carriage gracefully traversed the meticulously crafted garden, a testament to the skilled hands that had nurtured it. With every beat of her heart, Alanna’s pulse quickened, a symphony of anticipation echoing within her chest.
The man sitting beside her had uttered her name, Alanna, with a tenderness previously unseen. It was the first time he had called her by her given name, breaking free from the formality of her surname, Laforet.
“Yes…” Alanna yearned to respond with those words, but the depth of her embarrassment muted her voice, leaving her with naught but a quiet, barely audible affirmation.
Alanna, a twenty-two-year-old commoner blessed with the wealth of her merchant family, had entered the Lucas family mansion today, a month before her impending wedding.
Though she harbored doubts about the suitability of the union, Alanna’s upbringing in a fatherless household had instilled in her a lifelong yearning for marriage and the creating a happy family.
Thus, she accepted the proposal of her aristocratic fiancé, despite the stark social divide that separated their families.
While apprehensions lingered about the disparities between their merchant lineage and the nobility, the negotiations for their union proceeded smoothly, met without opposition from those surrounding her.
And on this day, Lucas, the esteemed patriarch and master of the household, implored Alanna to swiftly adapt to the customs and etiquette befitting her new noble status. Out of consideration, she had arrived at this mansion a month prior to the wedding, in hopes of acclimating herself to her new life.
“Now, come here, Alanna,” Lucas beckoned, as the carriage gracefully glided to a halt before the majestic front doors. Stepping out first, the head of the Lucas extended a hand to Alanna with utmost courtesy.
The instant her delicate hand made contact with the large, sturdy palm of the man, Alanna’s heart raced in her chest, pulsating with fervor.
“Lucas’s hands… so large and warm,” she mused silently, her heart surging with emotion. To her, those broad, thick hands exuded a sense of comfort and warmth, akin to a long-lost embrace she had yearned for throughout her life.
Alanna couldn’t help but be captivated by the comforting warmth radiating from Lucas’s broad, thick hands. Having grown up alone with her mother, the new presence in her life, his touch felt good to her.
With a proud and affectionate smile, Lucas made the introduction, proclaiming, “She is Alanna, from today she is the esteemed guest who have come here for some motnhs, as her fiance is very busy he handed me this job as I am his friend and I accepted it..”
Stepping out of the carriage, Alanna ascended the steps towards the grand front door, accompanied by Lucas. Waiting there to greet her were three individuals, already assembled to extend their warm welcome.
“I am Alanna. Please take care of me,” Alanna softly murmured, her petite lips forming a delicate greeting. As she spoke, her sleek, glossy black hair cascaded down to her waist, swaying with a graceful elegance. A gentle flush graced her fair cheeks, revealing her innate shyness.
After the introduction, Lucas’s large hand encircled Alanna’s slim waist, his gesture resembling that of introducing his own beloved wife.
The touch of his masterful fingers caressed the small of her back, their strength subtly grazing her waist through the fabric of her blouse.
For Alanna, this display of affection from Lucas felt entirely natural and welcoming, an endearing sign of their growing friendship.
Having already met Lucas, and her fiancé, on multiple occasions prior to this encounter, Alanna’s sentiments towards him had blossomed into something increasingly favorable.
Though such an intimate physical interaction might typically invoke feelings of discomfort or suggest a flirtatious undertone, Alanna perceived it as harmless, innocent skinship, akin to the affectionate touch of a best and gentle friend.
“I am George, the esteemed butler of the Villebeon family. Should you require any assistance or have any problems, please do not hesitate to call for me.”
Among the three individuals who emerged to greet them, a man adorned in a tailcoat and white gloves stepped forward, introducing himself as George, the trusted butler of the Villebeon family.
Bowing his head politely, he conveyed a sense of formality and professionalism, his expression impassive and cold-eyed.
While Alanna had encountered George on several previous occasions, his stoic demeanor and piercing gaze didn’t quite align with her own disposition, causing a shiver to run down her spine whenever their eyes met.
“And this is Karin, Alanna,” Lucas continued the introductions, gesturing towards a charming, neatly attired girl donning a maid’s uniform.
Alanna instantly recognized Karin from her melodic and sweet voice. In past visits to the Lucas family mansion, Alanna recalled Karin’s endearing presence, serving tea with a radiant smile, embodying the epitome of loveliness in her maid attire.
