Jaimie opened his mouth to say something but then closed it again, not knowing what to say.? Lord Callum would expect him to obey whatever Mistress Sam asked of him.? But he couldn't stand by and allow such improper familiarity - not to mention insult - shown to Lord Callum, especially from a mere guest? He felt injured by Mistress Sam's words, but he could say nothing.? In the end, he finally bowed to her. ?

"Aye, Mistress Sam," the young ghost said, keeping his eyes down. "As ye wish."? He then quickly departed from the room, leaving Sam alone with Branson. And once he'd closed the door behind him, he promptly vanished.

(Branson)

"To be honest, I could hardly understand a single thing he said," Branson said with a chuckle after Jaimie had left.? "Actually, I'm kind of amazed that you can."

"So, who's this Callum fellow you're talking about?" he said, coming up behind Scheherezade and slipping his arms around her waist.? "One of the locals who's up on his castle lore?" He smiled as he nuzzled her ear.? "Should I be jealous?"

(Jaimie, Callum)

Callum looked up when Jaimie suddenly appeared next to him where he was waiting outside of what had long ago been the castle stables.? "Ah, Jaimie lad.? Did you find Scheherezade?? And did you give her my message?"

"Aye, m' laird," the young ghost said, fidgeting awkwardly sounding apologetic.? "Ah tellt her. Bit a'm feart she is displeased wi' me."

"Why, lad?"? Callum asked, looking concerned.? "Did you say or do something to upset her?"

"Yin o' her mukkers wis speaking in a maist disrespectful manner," Jaimie said, sounding highly distressed.? "He spoke o' ye as if? ye wur a servant!

Callum raised an eyebrow, looking more amused than annoyed.? "Did he now? Well, that will certainly give us something to talk about when ah show her about."

Sam, Branson

“You mean he doesn’t make sense to you?” She asked with a playful smile. “Now you know how the rest of feel when you go all very British on us...oh I’m sorry” she said the smile growing wider. “ all Wales. You’re from Wales.”

Sam wrapped her arm around his as he held her.

“Umm.” she moaned at his lips on the shell of her ear. He knew her so well and if he kept that up, the things it would lead to...“Why yes you should.” She tease Heat in her voice from his lips. “He is quiet charming and dashing and if you are not careful, he will steal me away.” She said turning to him. Sam rose up on tip toes to kiss his lips. “Are you really feeling okay?”

Friends?

?Alex and Marc sat in the kitchen watching Miss Margaret make breakfast. “Thank you for doing this.” Marc said you really didn’t have too.”

“The mistress requires sustenance, yes I had too.” Miss Margaret said.

Meanwhile Greyson moved about the castle. Exploring. He had just found the door to the upper turrets. But it was looked. That gave him pause
