Chapter 6

• ~Back in Dane Creighton's Mansion ~
• Mrs. Creighton found herself deep in the pages of a book in the solitude of her living room. Her eyes were masked by her favoruite exquiste prescription glasses. However, the once tranquility she savored was suddenly disturbed by the whimpering sobs of one of the mansion's servants, whose clothes soaked and clinging to her body.
• Upon seeing the maid's disheveled state, Mrs. Creighton directed her to rouse her son from his slumber, all too aware of what might have ensued. She exhaled a weary sigh and lowered her glasses onto the bridge of her nose to address the sobbing maid.
