WHO: Laura and Alice WHERE: Hale Estate, Laura's room WHEN: Week 3, Monday Early Evening WHY: Laura is irritable with the full moon being that night, but needs to help Alice settle in. WARNINGS: Branding
The day had been a stressful and frustrating one for Laura - the day of the full moon always was. Always full of anticipation for what the night would lead to, but still full of frustration, and pent up anger. She was in control during the full moon, but it was always that much harder to keep that control, to not lash out. But right now, she had to push those feelings down - she hadn't yet been to see Alice. After bringing her home on the Sunday, she'd shown her to her cabin on the Estate, and left her to settle in, with orders to other slaves to bring food to her at meal times.
But she didn't want to leave her without direction for too long, so a few hours before she was heading out, she decided to check in on the girl. Knocking on the door, she went into the room, wondering just what she'd been up to.
