Lucy smiled at her governess and said, "I like to sing." And when Ms. Lewis' eyes narrowed. The young vampiress said, "I don't think I can learn something that makes too much noise and is hurtful to my ears."
The governess' lips twitched, and she slowly nodded her head, "Alright then. Let me get the metronome, and let me hear your beautiful voice."
"Yes!"
When the young vampiress had mentioned that she liked to sing, the governess was sure that the princess had the sweetest voice that would enchant everyone who heard her sing. Even Lucy looked eager to sing, and Ms. Lewis came to believe that this part of the princess' curriculum would be the easiest to handle and manage. It would even save both of them time.
The governess brought the metronome instrument and placed it on the table. The stick started to sway back and forth, similar to a pendulum while making a soft ticking sound.
"What will you be singing today, Lady Lucy?" asked Ms. Lewis.
"I was thinking about 'Blood and gore on the walls of the-"
"Maybe we should try something easier and lighter, yes? How about you sing Daisys in the garden. I believe you know this song?" Lucy quickly nodded her head at her governesses question. "Okay, then. Sing when you are ready."
Lucy held both her hands together in the front as she could now hear silence in the room. Finally, there was peace, and she could hear the birds chirping somewhere far away.
"Go on," Ms. Lewis encouraged her with a poised look on her face.
Lucy cleared her throat, coughing, and she then opened her mouth to sing,
"LOOK AT THE DAISY'S THAT HAVE GROWN IN THE MEADOW. O' LOOK THERE, IT WAS ONLY YESTERDAY THE SEEDS WERE PLANTED."
Ms. Lewis's eyes turned wide, and she felt her heart was ready to jump out of her chest because of the sudden high pitch in the princess' voice. She winced and felt the glasses in the room vibrate on Lucy's voice.
The other people who were nearby the study room flinched hearing someone sing loudly with their shrill voice.
Calhoun, who was walking in the corridor frowned, and looked in the direction from where the sound was coming from, "Who is singing in a sweet tone?" he muttered sarcastically to himself before heading in the other direction.
Queen Morganna had only just sat to have her evening blood tea when she heard her granddaughter who was screaming her lungs out in the name of singing, and she looked at her maids, "What is going on? Go tell the governess to stop it this instance," she rubbed her forehead as if a sudden ache had started in her head.
Theodore hadn't moved away from the area he had earlier been in, and he was sitting on the roof on one side of the castle when he heard the voice of the vampiress, and a chuckle escaped his lips. What a funny little girl she was, thought Theodore to himself.
"STOP!" Ms. Lewis ordered by standing up and looking at Lucy. "What was that?!"
Lucy gave an oblivious look, "The daisy's?"
"You said you like to sing," the governess had a look of bewilderment on her face. The reason why she had dropped the idea of the instruments was because the princess said she loved to sing.
"I very much do," replied Lucy, but then she put on a sad face, "But for some reason, I am never allowed to sing."
The governess pursed her lips tightly, and she took a deep breath, feeling a certain echo in her ears even though Lucy had stopped singing now, "That's alright milady. We can work on your singing...perhaps later, and maybe stick to the instruments for now. Yes? Yes!"

"Let me complete the song for you, Ms. Lewis," and Lucy was about to start singing when the governess placed her hand on the vampiress' mouth.

"How about we call it a day? You have worked hard, and you should go and have some rest now," suggested Ms. Lewis, and Lucy nodded her head.
When the governess pulled her away, Lucy bowed her head, "Thank you, Ms. Lewis. I shall see you in the dining room."
"Hm," responded the woman and saw Lucy leave the room before releasing a sigh.
Noticing a couple of maids arrived in the corridor on Lucy's way, Lucy dismissed them, telling them not to worry.
"So you were the crow," stated Calhoun when they crossed paths, and Lucy grinned, bowing her head.
"Good evening, brother Calhoun," and Calhoun's eyes narrowed at Lucy's words, but he didn't bother to argue or discuss it. "Did you like my song?"
"Excellent," came the dull praise from Calhoun before walking away from her.
"Thank you..." Lucy murmured as Calhoun was long gone, leaving her in the corridor.
Returning to her room, Lucy wanted to tell Ruby what happened today in the study room, and she ordered one of the maids who was waiting on her in the room, "Call Ruby here."
"Forgive me, milady," the maid bowed her head, "Lady Samara has given orders to Ruby to work for her from now on, and has filled the position with her maids instead."

Lucy's lips set itself in a thin line, and a small frown appeared on her forehead. "What about Amice?"
"She too, milady, along with a few others," answered the maid. It seemed like her mother was serious when she had told that she was going to replace her maids.
"Do you know where Ruby is right now?" demanded Lucy.
"Yes, milady, she's currently working in the South Wing of the castle," replied the maid.
Lucy quickly stepped out of the room and made her way towards the South Wing. When she reached the place, she didn't find Ruby there, making her wonder where the elder woman was positioned to work.
Pushing the doors of her mother's resting room, Lucy asked, "Where is she?"
"And good evening to you, my daughter dearest," wished her mother who was seated on a couch, conversing with a guest while ignoring Lucy's question.
"It seems like the governess is busy as she has let you out of her sight."
"I finished my studying for the day. Where is Ruby?" asked Lucy, slightly worried.
"I have no idea about whom you are speaking about, dear."Her mother's words were sweet and polite. "You shouldn't worry yourself with people who don't concern you. Use your time on something more useful, like your studies."
