Chapter two: cozy blankets
Warmth and a calm cozy feeling spread throughout her body as she began to wake. she snuggled more into the soft and warm blankets that smelled of light cigarette smoke and mouthwatering spices paprika, cayenne she thought, and bourbon She began to fall back asleep till a thought entered her mind I don't own a bed. once she resters this thought she springs up and looks around the room she wakes up in.
It was a really large room that looked like it belonged in a castle. there was a Texas king-size bed with a French rococo style dark red canopy bed structure that was covered with satin sheets and expense blankets and pillows facing a huge wall-built fireplace made of detailed wood carving of goblins, bats and other creatures of the night The shelved above was covered in inch to inch in candles that where a match blood red to the bed that has drip and melted on the shelf there are also paintings of dark stories are hung on the wall.
Before she could look more she spotted a door with a Queen of Hearts card on the door with a note. She lifted herself out of the comfy bed and brought one of the blankets to warp around her as she walked towards the door. She unfolds the note and reads "Dear ma maîtresse des ténèbres please feel free to take a bath and change into some clean clothes The room behind this door is the bathroom and the other room across the room is the closet set with clothes you size when done please ring the bell by the main doors and someone will be there to guide you to the main banquet hall for breakfast aime vraiment ton diable de la Nouvelle-Orléans ."
this is wrong She thought I don't know these people for all I know I have been kidnapped but I haven't had a bath in weeks and I'm really hungry. As she opens the door to the room she reveals a huge steaming Roman bath pool with the status of nymphs pouring water into the bath with black rose petals and lavender floating in the water the room was a black marble flooring with candles covering shelves vanities and even some on the edges of the bath and status . I'm in a palace she thinks as she gets into the pool-like bath.
About two hours later she stepped out of the bathroom glowing from the bath smelling of lavender vanilla and a little honey. She walked over to the closet and pulled open the door revealing a huge walk-in closet that was bigger than any hotel room she stayed in. it split into one side for a female and another for a male. She walked over to the female side and went Thurs the expense looking clothes finding a tight form-fitting black velvet Morticia Addams-looking dress that has a v-neck that goes down past her belly button showing off her Navel piercing and a pair of black heels also wearing ruby earrings and a single ruby necklace and matching bracelet on both wrists.
she walks out of the closet heads to the door and rings the bell. about ten minutes later a knock comes through the door She gets up and puts down the book she was reading walks over to the door opens it to reveal a teenager about 16 with blonde short hair "Good morning Mistress I am Tabitha and I will be your head lady please follow me " says Tabitha. " rogue you can call me rogue you don't need to call me mistress " said rogue following the young girl down a hallway " also where the hell are we this look like a palace " asked rogue
"This is the head guild of thieves also known as the Royal Palace of Thieves it is home to the royal family and their courts it was styled after the original Palace Versailles " answered Tabitha "Wait Versailles as in the French Revolution beheading the French monarchs Versailles, " asked rogue stunned " yes the head of the guild was originally in France but then the french revolution happened and they moved over and became the part of the Cajuns in the start of new orleans ." said Tabitha leading rogue to a huge set of doors " this is the Le Diable Blanc prince and heir of thieves office "
