chapter 1

moving to the valley

I listened to the priest as he droned on I just couldn't feel anything any more everyone I loved his gone.

Hi my name is Genevieve merryweather I'm sixteen years old I have dirty blonde hair which reaches just below my butt, I have chocolate brown eyes with bits of gold In them long black eye lashes.

My mother died when I was eight and my father passed away just two weeks ago, after the priest finished I dropped a rose onto his coffin then placed another rose on my mothers grave next to my fathers.

I looked over at the pavilion to see a boy about the same age as me with curly dark brown hair covered by a bowler hat a chocker round his neck with bird feathers sticking out, a black shirt with a leather jacked leather trousers and black boots with a few bracelets tied around each wrist with a piece of black material tied across his face so all you could see was his mouth and his eyes which were so brown they were almost black.

I looked back up to see my governess Mrs heliotrope, I've never really got on with her she gave me a stern look then looked back at the funeral she started to head to the directors office to see if father left a will I followed her and looked over my shoulder but the boy was no longer there.

'' but papa can't have been in London when he wrote to me to say he was coming home he wouldn't have lied to me '' father was a cournel '' sorry, but he did leave you this as your inheritance '' he handed my an old leather bound dusty book I brushed it of and looked at the title '' the ancient chronicles of moonacre valley '' '' come Genevieve we need to get back home and pack.

I had just finished packing the last of my clothes most city girls preferred their cage dresses, but I preferred gowns I changed into my white night gown and picked up the book papa left me I started to read but then slammed the book shut and as soon as my head hit the pillow I was asleep.

I woke up and got the clothes I left out last night and changed into them I wore a dark red dress with black ribbon threaded through a red circlet with had ruby droplets hanging down with brown lace boots and a black cloak and headed stairs with my bags to the door but was stopped by miss heliotrope '' red that is no way to dress ''.

red was my nick name '' well this is the way I want to dress '' '' oh fine '' I headed out the door to the carriage '' you'll be miss Genevieve merryweather then '' he came round and took my bags '' thank you, and most people call me red '' he placed my bags in the back of the carriage and I climbed in soon after miss heliotrope climbed in the other side and we set off.

Time skip xxoxoxoxoox

I leant out the carriage window and shouted to digweed I learnt his name was digweed '' what happening have we arrived '' but he just ignored me and went along with unlocking the gate '' the man's obviously a half wit '' miss heliotrope remarked and I started to laugh.

I went to go back in the carriage but some one grabbed my arms and tried to pull me out I started to scream and struggle I vaguely noticed they were wearing all black I pulled the sewing needle of the cotton, from the design I had been sewing and dragged it across there hand.

They let out a cry of pain and let me go I slid back into the carriage then it suddenly lurched forward and I heard the gate clang shut behind us and also a shout of anger I looked out the carriage window to see the two men who I was certain were de noirs like in papa's book one of them pointed at me and shouted '' you cant stay in there forever and when you leave we will get you princess ''.

we arrived at the house or should I say mansion about an hour later we climbed out and grabbed our bags the sun was setting flashing beautiful red orange and yellow streaks across the sky, I looked towards the door way to see a figure move out of the darkness '' welcome to moonacre '' …

sorry its so short but I just wanted to get that bit out of the way and also I din't want to go through the whole carriage ride and leaving the house as we all know what happens but I hope you like it and I promise robin will be in it soon sooo hope you liked it so far the next chapter will be longer xoxoxoxox
