     “The orphan by the river,” he whispered.

           

     She turned away.

           

     “It was you wasn’t it?” he questioned.

           

     She remained silent looking at him.

           

      He came off the cot quickly and crouched down in front of her. “You don’t realize how much I regret those words,” he spoke earnestly.  “I was a foolish child.  A foolish, selfish child who was only concerned with his own happiness.  I was not happy and seeing you that day so carefree and joyful made me angry. I didn’t understand how a poor orphan girl could seem to be so full of life and me with my parents, rich and a prince and I still was not happy.”

           

      She was silent and he continued.

           

      “I wanted to make your happiness go away but you proved me wrong.  Instead you just proceeded to remind me of my own self centeredness.

           

     “As I grew older and remembered those cruel words I had spoken to you and I can honestly say I never regretted something more in my life.”

           

      She wanted to roll her eyes.  He said these things now but he had yet to speak an actual apology.

           

      His hand reached forward and paused as if uncertain of what he was about to do then he lightly picked up a strand of her hair as if to feel the smooth texture.  He stared at it in what appeared to her awe.

           

       “You most definitely do not resemble the young orphan I remember you as,” he said quietly.

           

     She snorted loudly and pulled her hair free of his grasp.

           

     “Can you not say something?” he asked finally looking up at her face and their eyes met.

           

     Her eyes narrowed.  Still no apology.

           

     “When will I meet my punishment?  Will it be the noose or a beheading?” she questioned sarcastically.

           

     She sounded brave on the outside but her insides seemed to have turned to mush.  She knew the consequences for her years of thievery and she would approach her punishment bravely but yes she had known this would come with capture but that was why she had been leaving that day.  That plan had most certainly back fired in the largest way possible.

           

     He smiled suddenly. “I’ve thought long and hard about this and I think death will not be your punishment.”

           

     She looked to him in suspicion.  What was he talking about?

           

      He nodded to himself as if pleased with his choice. 

           

     “You will work if the castle,” he finally declared.

           

      “You want me to become a servant?” she demanded in disbelief.

           

      He smiled a devilish grin at her and shook his head.  “You misunderstood me.  I said work in the castle.  A servant is paid for their services, you however will work whether you like it or not.”

           

      “What are you saying?” she asked slowly already knowing where this was heading.

           

     “As of tomorrow you will be my slave.”

           

     She jumped up angrily and he did also slowly.

           

     “You cannot possibly be serious!” she cried.

           

      She had narrowly escaped slavery ten years earlier only for it to happen to her now and to a man who she despised most of all…well…it was a tie between him and Francis.

           

     “I am serious,” he replied looking smug.  There was no longer any sign of the regretful man she had seen earlier instead in his place was this arrogant excuse for the male species.  “This will be where you sleep at night and you will report to Gene.  She is the head maid and she will tell you all that you need to do then, you will be brought to me.”

           

     She just glared. 

           

      “I have told you of my regret for the foolish boy I was but now it is time for you to meet out your punishment.  I will see you in the morning.” 

           

     He walked toward the door.

           

       “How long?” she questioned and he stopped.  “How long must I be your slave?”

           

       He turned slightly giving her a brief view of his face.  “As long as I decide,” he replied smugly before walking out and locking the door behind him.

           

     She turned and with the force of her strength punched the stone wall beside her.  Then again and again.

           

     After the fifth time she stopped and gazed down at her split knuckles that were now bleeding freely.

           

     She sighed and winced at the burn.  If only she had split them open for a worthier cause.  Like the prince’s face.

           

     Ripping a piece from the end of her dress she wrapped the wound tightly.

           

     Then turned to survey her new home for the time being.

           

      There was nothing much to it.  It was a small square room consisting of nothing but the cot in which she would be sleeping on; small square window lye on the far wall but it was too small to fit through and the metal bars also presented a problem.

           

     She crashed down hard onto the cot and grumbled to herself.  How was she going to get out of this one?
