After several days at the mansion, Catherine had to leave on a trip for some family business. This time, she couldn’t take Mary with her, so before leaving, she said:”

“Mary, I’ll be

e gone for a few days, but you won’t be alone. Emma will stay with you. If you need anything. you can ask her.”

“Yes, Grandma, don’t worry!”

“Well, I’m off! I’ll be back in a couple of days. Try not to leave the mansion grounds.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.”

That day, Mary didn’t do much besides have dinner and go to sleep. She always read the letter her grandfather had left her. She liked to imagine that he had just written it, as it didn’t have a date on it. All of this made her feel especially nostalgic.

Meanwhile, around midnight, a Maybach pulled into the driveway. A handsome young man got out, his expression tired. He had little energy to go inside, but he couldn’t rest if he stayed sleeping in the car seat. Reluctantly, he got out and grabbed his luggage from the backseat. He entered the mansion and, leaving his bags in the living room, headed for the kitchen to get some water.

The journey had been long, and he hadn’t eaten dinner. He wanted to refresh himself a bit before going to bed. It was only a few hours until sunrise, so he’d have some water and then go to sleep. The mansion’s lights were off, nothing unusual for him. However, as he approached the kitchen, he noticed a faint light coming from inside and began to approach cautiously

That night, Mary was having trouble sleeping. It was already past midnight, and after tossing and turning in bed, she got up to get a glass of milk. She thought a little milk might help cure her mild insomnia. She walked barefoot to the kitchen, managed to reach a glass from the cupboard, and opened the refrigerator- door. She was pouring herself a glass of milk when suddenly she heard:

“Who goes there? Show yourself!” a deep male voice called from the darkness.

Mary jumped and dropped the glass, which shattered on the floor. The man grabbed the refrigerator door and yanked it open to see who the intruder in the kitchen was. Startled, Mary stepped back, and a shard of glass embedded itself in her foot, making her let out a small cry.

“Who are you?”

“M–my name is… Mary.”
