꧁Chapter 1꧂

( Penelope's POV )

The sun shines brightly as it always has, birds chirping and wind slowly passing by us, everything was so bright but one place wasn't, that's right.... it's the Ducal Household

The duke was helding my hand as the two of us we're standing in front of so many people, servants, knights and the two young masters of the Ducal Household

"What's the meaning of this father?" Said the first son of the Duke of Eckart "She's Penelope and she's going to be your new sister from now on, treat her well" The duke looked at his two sons as he shows a faint smile

The two sons of the duke only remained silent with widened eyes, the same goes for the servants and knights especially the butler and the head maid 'Right.... this is the normal reaction, just like in my dream....'

"FATHER WHAT ARE YOU-" The first son of the duke shouted as the second son of the duke shouted in desperate "FATHER WHAT ABOUT IVONNE?!" The servants nodded they're heads desperately waiting for an answer

"Im sorry but i still haven't found Ivonne" All the servants and the two young masters of the Ducal Household flinched at what the duke said

The second young master clinched his fists as he looked at the duke with cold eyes as the duke chose to ignore it, while the first young master looked at me with resentment and hatred eyes

'They must've been thinking, that he still hasn't saw Ivonne yet, yet he already brought an orphan girl with him' I chose to ignore the gazes that the servants and the two young masters gave to me as i looked around in the whole household

'I have to say, this place is pretty' I looked at the duke as the duke ordered his servants something "Prepare her room for her, also give her a comfortable bath, give her proper clothes as well" The maids who was standing nearby nodded their heads as they went to me

"Young miss pls come this way" The maids said in a calm tone and face but i know that they're thinking on 'why should we care on an orphan girl, we should be looking for the real miss instead' is what they're thinking right

The duke let'd go of my hand as he spoke "Penelope, now that your here you will be the new lady of the Ducal Household until the real lady of the Ducal Household returns you will be acting as her substitute for the time being"

'The same words just like in my dream' "Yes i understand duke" "Good" The duke nodded as he left the place 'Now then...' I looked in front of me as i saw the second young master of the Ducal Household coming towards me

"Listen here you rat" I looked at his face with emotionless face as he shrugged it off, he clinched his hand and teeth as he spoke with cold tone "Just because your the new lady of the Ducal Household doesn't mean well treat you like one, and im not ever gonna accept you as my sister you understand" I nodded as he turned around

"It's good that you understand but remember this, the only sister I'll ever accept will be Ivonne not you!" "Yes i understand...." The guy turned around with an annoyed face as he left the place

'This is fine, it's my choice anyway' I looked back again to see the first young master standing not to far away from me as he turned around not giving a single glance at me and eventually i was left alone with the maids

I looked at the maids as they looked at me with different eyes, completely different from what they gave when the duke and the other two young masters was around not too long ago

The maid that was holding my hand let'd go of my hand with force as she took out an handkerchief and wiped her hands that touched my hand earlier 'Showing their true colors huh'
