Thread: Confessions- Forevermischevious/Moon

the Mother confessor only smiled at Vinia as the girl looked at her, her head tilted a little. Vinia, such a sweet name. a name you have made yourself, yes? Arianna asked, her head tilted. it is a good, strong name. she assured the abused servant girl. you know why you are eligible. you have seen your own powers at work, for none may harm a Confessor, even one who is dormant. the Prince suffered for his folly, and now he suffers again for his lies. Arianna stated sternly, shooting a furious glare at the prince, who was being stripped of his well to do clothes kicking and screaming like a child having a temper tantrum. so spoiled. she growled shaking her head. he will soon know the hard life, and maybe in a few years, he will truly have learned his lesson... i doubt it. she admitted before smiling at the girls guts. so very brave. she purred, looking highly pleased that the girl had dared to question her. so very worthy. she admitted simply. you have a choice, of course my darling. she promised the girl. all Confessor's have a choice, and many Dormant Confessors are happy with the way their lives are, and stay within their lives. she looked at Vinia. you are not Happy here, and never have been. this is not a home for you. if you choose to stay as you are, i will take you to a new place, a new town where you can be safe, happy, and free of the memories that haunt this place. she promised the girl. never will you feel a chain around your neck again. the gaurd was actually waiting to un-handcuff the servant girl, but he was too terrified of the Mother confessor to get any closer. you will live your life for yourself, precious one, and only for yourself. the Mother Confessor promised, holding her hand out to the Guard who cringed and quickly handed her the key to the shackles. the mother confessor undid the cuffs herself, and carefully picked up each hand, laying a kiss on the bruised wrists, healing the pains there with a single kiss. there. much better. she looked around and pointed to a stall that was selling dresses. the matron who ran the stall was more than happy to bring over a fine dress that would suit Vinia's coloring nicely. Come Vinia, let us get you out of those. she ordered softly, handing the matron a few gold coins, much more than the dress was really worth, but the Mother confessor scowled when the woman tried to protest and she backed down. a house was offered and Vinia was let inside a bathroom to clean herself, take a hot shower, or a bath and comb her hair and get dressed in better clothes. a pair of shoes where waiting for her once she was done, though the Mother confessor was nowhere in sight. a glance out the window showed that she was speaking to the King, making sure that the Prince hadn't gotten his nasty habits from him. the King was clearly upset about what his son had done, but that show was much less exciting than the very impressive plate of hot food laid out before her on the kitchen table that was very clearly meant for her to eat as there was no one else in the house. the Prince had been forced into Commoner clothes and was being taken away, tied up in a wagon tot he farm that had offered to take him in. he would work, or he would go hungry, and that was that. before the day was out, the entire kingdom would know that the prince had tried to place false blame on a woman and was now being punished for it for the rest of his life. finally the Mother Confessor seamed to be done with the king and she came back into the house, shaking her head. fool of a man. she grumbled before smiling at Vinia. eat your meal now. she ordered softly. the King has promised you a place as his Wife's handmaiden if you desire to stay here. Handmaidens where so pampered it was almost like they where princesses themselves. all they had to do was entertain the queen when she got bored. and as the Queen was swollen with pregnancy, she was bored a lot. there is a home in Heathrow that can use a new Matron. a matron was basically the boss of all the servants. they told who to clean what and received a hefty amount of pay for their troubles. there's a Queen in Cambridge that needs a new nanny for her baby girl. the Lady Mother admitted. or you can come and join the confessors. she admitted. at the moment those are the only places i would feel safe leaving you, but if you like i can wait and see if anyone else is looking for a strong woman like you. she assured Vinia.
