Chapter 7
~(Y/n) POV~
"COME ON DOG, RIDE LIKE THE WIND!"
"Get back here you piece of plywood!"
"Give her back!"
"Angie please leave her be"
How did I get here? Just to suffer. Maybe it would be best to rewind a bit.
{Flashback}
"We're having who over?"
I was currently putting on my apron when Lidia asked for my help in the kitchen
"Please pay attention (Y/n), we're having Lady Beneviento over for our lady's usual tea meeting. We must prepare sweets and an additional dinner plate for them."
I nod and start to help around. Donna Beneviento, she's mostly referred to as a mistress of phantom. A force to be reckoned with, any who defy her would end in a world of hysteria. This could be a chance to have a tiny peek of what I am to expect from the Dark Weaver.
•Timeskip•
Once I and Lidia have finished the meals and pastry, I went to set up the table as it was her turn to clean the dishes. After setting down the last plate, I was pulled aside by Bela. I was dragged to the library to where the other two sisters are at. Daniela had a nervous expression as Cassandra just looks a little annoyed.
"What did I do now?"
"You're not in trouble, we just want to warn you that Donna always brings an additional person with her and that person ain't exactly a normal being per se"
"aren't we all?"
"well yes but she's more hyperactive than Cassandra and could cause you to go mad."
I nod and start thinking about who might this person be. Before I could speak, my lady walked in and told us to get ready as Lady Beneviento is on her way. I fixed my uniform and run hastily to Lidia who is waiting by the door. I stayed on the other side holding the door and letting in the Dark Weaver and her companion.

A wooden doll?
"What's the dog doing here!?" a piercing voice comes out of the doll on its own, I was a bit surprised but considering Theran can create something similar out of mud, this is pretty normal. Soon after she spoke another voice was heard this one was sweet like honey and smooth like silk
"Angie please behave" a woman in a black robe with a black veil on spoke
Donna Beneviento
I bow and greeted the doll and its maker. "Welcome to Castle Dimitrescu, I'm (Y/n) (L/n) a new helper for my lady till I get relocated"
"She spoke a bit about her village and I rewarded her loyalty by giving her proper living conditions"
The lady in black nods, however, Angie walks closer and pulls on my tail.
"yeah right, this thing doesn't even feel real"
I wince when she tugs it harder, then I lifted her up and carefully hand her to the lady in black.
"Please be careful lady Angie, it may look a bit fake since I'm not in my werewolf form but it still hurts."
"Werewolf huh? So like a lycan but more dog than man" for some reason I can sense she's thinking of some ulterior motive but I disregard it since a doll can't do much on me.
"Shall we proceed to the table my ladies" I bow and guided them to the table.
•Timeskip•
Dinner was a bit hectic, Angie kept trying to mess with me whether it was by pulling on my tail, standing in the way, or downright throwing a knife at me. I was lucky to have caught the blade but to the extent of my hand getting a decently large cut. Right now Daniela is tending my wound as the sisters distract the wooden doll
"Honestly, that Angie reminds me of Therans mud golem just a bit more 'wordy' and hyper"
Daniela laughs a bit before wrapping the bandages on "That's Angie alright, do you think they'll get along"
"Ha, Therans mud golem would probably destroy themselves after spending at best an hour with her"
Daniela and I laugh before we were consumed in comfortable silence. However, all good things must come to an end as Lidia rushes in.
"(Y/n)! We're out of (f/p) {favorite pastry} and our lady requests more immediately. They're correctly enjoying my famous Miso Caramel-Apple Danish."
"I'll get to work immediately Lidia, thank you for the help, Daniela. I can't say enough but you are an angel." I smile and walked to the kitchen to make more (f/p). However, the universe has a different plan as I put in the 3rd batch into the oven the door creaked open. I looked and saw nothing so I just assumed one of the sisters came to steal another one of my pastries.
I start to put the ingredients away till suddenly flour was hurling towards my face as I staggered back I try to clean it
"Fucking dammit! Cassandra if this is a prank you just claimed a declaration of war!"
Amid my yelling, I felt something put in my mouth and tugged as if it were reins. I try to shake whatever has a hold of me only to knock down some jams and fruits around.
The doors bust open and there stood Bela and Cassandra looking at me both in shock and anger before I hear the voice of my perpetrator.
"You're too late beetles, I have acquired a ride! Hiya!"
I felt a jabbing pain in my shoulder blades which caused me to hiss in pain and run to shake off the doll.
Through corridors, yards, and a few rooms I had run trying to get Angie off me but with no success. This leads me to my current situation.
{Le present}
"COME ON DOG, RIDE LIKE THE WIND!"
"Get back here you piece of plywood!"
"Give her back!"
"Angie please leave her be"
I am currently running towards my lady's corridor, with the three sisters in tow, heading straight to the little library where my lady and the dolls creator are holding their tea meeting, I try to steer away but Angie maneuvers us back to the room till I have no choice but to barge in.
As soon as we barged in I crashed into someone as everyone else tried to stop but resulting in a domino effect. The pastries and tea was spilled everywhere and I was on the floor laying on something soft.
Once my head stopped spinning I spit out the doll's makeshift reigns and looked at what broke my fall. Underneath was the Dark Weaver but her veil was slightly pushed aside letting me see half of her right face and a bit of her left face.
She had a very noticeable blush as We were in a very suggestive position with one of my hands on her chest, the other practically pinning her down and my knee near the crotch area.
"HEY! You better not be getting any filthy fantasies about Donna, dog!"
Being the dumbass that I am I just stared and whispered out "Beautiful" her blush grew harsher before I was pulled away by the angry mommy and Donna quickly covers up her face.
"My lady I deeply apologize for my behavior. I would accept any punishment you give me but please let me help clean up the mess."
She looks at me before turning her attention to Donna and letting me go. I immediately helped Donna up and apologized
"I am so sorry Lady Beneviento, I didn't mean to cause you any harm. I'm willing to do almost any request for your forgiveness."
"No no, it's ok... I saw that Angie was using you as a horse. I apologize on her behalf for causing this."
"Don't apologize to the dog! She should be on her knees begging for forgiveness!"
I sigh before starting to clean up the spilled pastry.
"Now Angie, you also caused part of the damage so it's fair to help."
"What!? No, I'm not helping that mutt!"
Soon the three sisters also came to help as I drowned out the conversation the doll was having with their creator before a soft hand was placed on my shoulder. My lady was no longer mad and told me to take a rest as she'll get Lidia to clean the tea and she'll discuss punishment for Angie with Donna.
I thank her and start to take the pastries to the trash, rubbing my sore shoulder Angie kept attacking. On my way to my room, I came across Donna who was searching for something.
"Do you need any assistance Lady Beneviento?" Startling her but she acknowledges me nonetheless.
"I was actually looking for you..."
"Well you found me, is there anything you need from me Lady Beneviento"
"Just Donna is fine... I just came to apologize again for Angie's behavior. She tends to get out of control sometimes."
I smile and nod "It's no worries at all Lady Bene- Donna, she reminds me a lot about the children of my village. Full of life and energy"
She seemed a bit taken aback before continuing "I don't suppose you have a family waiting for you, husband and child?"
I laugh and shake my head "No no no, I don't have a husband Thank Mother Maria. I much prefer a more feminine person to be my significant other. As for children unless you count the orphanage I don't have children of my own, I do wish to start a family of my own"
She nodded and realized I keep rubbing my shoulder. "Are you injured?"
"No just a little sore from Angie's attacks. She can kick pretty hard on the right points."
"Mind if I can help, it's the least I could do."
I nod and lowered my body for her to reach my shoulder. She slowly uncovers my shoulder and puts some type of green ointment or disinfectant on her hand before rubbing the area and humming a little tune, feeling at peace and wanting to protect her from any harm my mind begins to think of our conversation.
Would I ever have a chance to have my own family?
Soon the rubbing stops and the ache has completely disappeared. "Woah, my shoulder feels brand new, thank you so much Lady Donna" she nods before leaving in a rush.
Sadly all good things must come to an end as a great storm is brewing and hurling to our location just on the outskirts of the castle. Surrounding us before their war horns would be blown, signaling their attacks.

[2 in a row!? This is my apology for being gone for so long, life takes you away from the things you love doing sometimes. I tried my best to slowly add a bit of fluff and comedy before something bad happens. Thank you for waiting and hope you all have a great day
Wolfie out]
