THE PARCHMENT

Magdalene locked her room door and windows before going to open her wardrobe and removing a key from one of the pockets of her dress. She used the key to unlock her drawer before bringing out the book and the parchment.

She sat down on her bed and began to study the book. She read the parchment over and over again and concluded that she needed to talk to Lucas. She can't do this on her own because the process of dispelling the spirits were too crafty.

Magdalene was still so busy reading the parchment that she didn't notice her door unlocking until Lord Lucas cleared his throat to have her gasp and Immediately hide the parchment behind her but too late cause he already saw it.

"L-L-Lord Lucas" She stuttered gulping hard with her heart beating rapidly in her chest. How was he able to enter inside when she made sure to lock the door.

"Is there something I should know" His voice calm but threatening.
