Victorian America - chapter 15

"Habeas corpus and serfdom, contradictory notions in property law of the Great British Empire. A study by Sir Edward Coke" is the title of the heavy tome seating on the desk in front of Megan. She isn't able to concentrate not only because of the tedious read that is the legal prose of Sir Coke but also because she can't stop herself from feeling guilty after leaving Erin at the castle.

Come on, she shouldn't care; after all, the girl is only human, she's cattle, a simple blood bag as Lady Vanessa would say. Megan's loyalty has always been to the house of Colorado Springs. But at the same time, she has shared something with that girl from another world, something strange and powerful. Come on, it can't be more powerful than her loyalty to Nobility... can it be?

Megan will not be working anymore tonight, she knows it now. She dresses, leaves her dorm and gets behind the wheel. She exits the campus and drives to the highway. Maybe the night air will clear her mind. She needs to get her priorities straight and Erin can't be one of them. Priority one getting her doctorate, priority two serving the Countess, priority three... Why can't she take the smell of that girl out of her mind?

Without realizing it she has driven back to Colorado Springs. In the distance the castle, in the castle her lady... But who is her lady? Is it the Countess or is it Erin?

She should go back to the campus, tomorrow she has class at nine and she needs her beauty sleep, but she parks her car by the big limo.

She enters the house. Class at nine tomorrow, remember you big stupid wolf.

Where is everyone?

Suddenly a large flash of light engulfs her.
