After getting engaged to a man she's never met. Caroline moves to the Van Estate, where she realizes that her husband to be, is not who he seems.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

"Caroline!"

The voice of her pursuer calls out to her, as she turns down the darkly lit corridor, hoping to elude them. But the footsteps only get closer, and closer. She runs down the end of the corridor, to a crossroad.

"Right or left?"

The footsteps get closer.

"Was the exit right or left?!"

She thinks to herself, as the voice once again calls out to her.

"Caroline! Come out, come out, wherever you are!"

"Right!"

She turns down the right corridor and runs as fast as she's able. As she gets closer, a bright light shines through. Causing her to almost leap with joy, she had chosen the right way! Or at least that's what she had thought. As she gets closer she realizes that this is in fact a dead end. The light was coming from a window; taking up the majority of the wall. She turns to go back, but she's met with a familiar pair of vibrant, purple eyes, staring back at her from the end of the hallway. She freezes in fear, as the figure grins, and calmly walks towards her.

"Found you."

Caroline

That morning Caroline is awoken by lamp light filling her bed-chamber. She tries to ignore the light, and continue her slumber, but Milly’s shrill voice fills her ears, forcing her dull blue eyes open. “My lady, you must make haste the Viscountess is ready to start your lessons.” 


 “Lessons?” Caroline asks, looking around the room. “The sun is still rising, it is far too early to learn anything-” 


 “I’m afraid she insisted, you meet her in the dining room before half-past five.” 


 Caroline glanced at the clock, it was already a quarter past five. “Fine. Fine, if I’ll get up now if I must.” She sits on the side of the bed, “fetch me something appropriate to wear.” 


 “Right away,” Milly bows, before walking over to Caroline’s wardrobe. She comes back only five minutes later, with a dark brown dress in hand. "I heard that the Viscountess prefers darker colors, so I decided to go with this brown one-"
