“For this and all you hard work you’ve shown I insist you have a nice hot bath and than accompany my daughter to the formal party I’m hosting tonight.”

Spencer panicked, she did not know how to dance. She was sure that all the people there were of the high class variety and she was low class, and with her secret well it wasn’t an idea she was liking, “Sir I appreciate the offer but…”

General Davies held up his hand silencing her, “It is more than an offer.” than he walked off with an insult of her stinking and needing a bath.

I stink! Spencer bent her head and smelled her arm pit and cringed than became angry, Of course I stink asshole. You try spending your days in the dirt, cold and garbage. Biting the inside of her cheek to stop from calling out to the man who was already hidden behind the double doors of his mansion. Taking a deep breath she headed inside, once in she noticed it looked different in the day even though the light was almost gone by now.

The sun set drenched the bottom of the house in a gentle warm glow, keeping the walls a bit warm even as the chilled air of the coming night began to take the final heat of the day away. Glancing around she saw paintings on the wall; Family portraits lining the wall heading upstairs, laughter from the kitchen where the servants were cooking up a storm while talking of the days events if not bad mouthing the owners of the mansion.

Taking a deep breath in filling her nostrils with the delicious aroma of turkey and fresh bread. Her stomach growled viciously, twisting and reminding her of all the missed meals. The scent brought back one of her favorite memories, bread rising in the oven as her mother whistled a happy tune and winking at her daughter as she yanked it out giving her the first slice.
