" Hahaha, this is great!"

" Stop laughing! It's her first time to try it! Don't make fun of her."

" Really? I thought Russians were good at drinking, these low alcohol stuff aren't enough to get you drunk!"

" Do you think we are all drunkards? I will make you pay for making fun of us! Here!"

" Bring it on! Can we get more wine bottles in here? We are running a little low!"

Henri immediately instructed the staff to open few more bottles. He began to worry seeing them get rowdy all of a sudden. Alcohol was really the bane of society and it showed as it had successfully transformed a group of well behaved young girls into common street thugs!

Still he didn't say anything, it's not like it was his first time seeing someone drunk. The little russian girl was only drinking in moderation so she slowly became a voice of reason among everyone. After finishing their meal, Henri took off all the dirty plates and left them to their own devices. Read new adventures at empire

He didn't want to do it but seeing them so defenseless without a care in the world he decided to gave them privacy. He also pulled Helga aside and explain to her that their rooms were downstairs so it was easier for her to drag anyone if they got too drunk.

With such a large castle, there were plenty of rooms and it was also isolated enough that even if they shouted at top of their lungs it would not disturb Samuel's sleep. He told her where the water was stored so that they could sober up before leaving them alone.

Everyone was already tired because they had been on edge due to Samuel's arrival. They had been working on cleaning everything and making the place more presentable. Him and his staff needed a much needed rest and also needed to prepare for next morning.

" I am sorry but I will leave everything up to you. Just don't wander around, it would be trouble if you disturb young master's sleep." Henri reminded her once more that they should stay away from upper floors. Everything they needed was available on the ground floor.

" Alright." Helga nodded. She could already tell that these people were getting out of control, if she only needed to guide them to bed, she was confident that she could do it.

" Right, there is also the secondary pool. If you feel like it everyone could take a dip to sober up. Don't worry it's shallow so no one will drown." Henri pointed out few other things before leaving.

By the time Helga got back to the dining table, the group had finished another bottle making even more noises. She began to pacify the situation, first breaking Katarina away from the group but when they heard about the pool, they decided to soak for sometime to lower their alcohol level.

Since they were alone they quickly undressed, now free from their shackles, they tumbled onto the shallow pool. It was already heated to the optimal level so they made themselves comfortable, few of them even brought their wines glasses with them to enjoy inside the pool.

There was no sign of their previous hesitation, they were fully committed to this luxury while Helga was left with sorting out their scattered clothes. She became the caretaker of these drunk girls supplying them with water and towels from the nearby cabinet. It was only later she was able to join them.

" This is nice." She commented drowning herself up to her neck. She never imagined to enjoy such luxury when she fled her home with Katarina. It also opened her eyes expanding her horizon to what was possible in the world.

Coincidently, she was reminded of the broad back of Samuel, when she thought about it she felt her face turn redder but no one noticed changes in her heart. She was young, so there was no way she would know it for now, she only wanted to thank the mysterious young man.

" From now on, you are my best friend! Since, I am older, I will always protect you!" Suddenly she heard Roberta's voice proclaiming something in her native language. Helga knew that it was not english but sounded similar to grumbling that she would exude when she was excited.

She saw her hugging Katarina as they both raised their glasses to drown themselves in alcohol. Seeing them so close she turned to Genevieve only to see her shaking her head helplessly. On the other hand, Alana was quiet the entire time. She was blushing heavily trying to lift and support herself at the edge of the pool.

" Are you also curious about what he looks like?" Suddenly they heard her mumble to herself while looking at the high ceiling. Alana's eyes were hazy like she was daydreaming.

" Of course, we only know that his name is Samuel. From looking at his overall build, he seemed to have taken care of his body well." Roberta also commented reminiscing about everything that had happened today.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

" Why don't we go and explore? Isn't he sleeping upstairs? We can go in and out without him noticing!" Genevieve said with an excited tone.

" What?! No!" Even if Helga didn't know what they were talking about but she could tell from the mischievous look in Genevieve's eyes that she was plotting something ominous.

" I am ready to take the chance. I am an expert in sneaking~!" Roberta was adamant. She felt like the reason why the young man refused to show himself in front of them was because he was embarrassed about his looks!

" What are you guys on about?" Katarina asked seeing them stand up.

" We are going on a late night stroll. Since you are my best friend, I will let you follow me!" Roberta turned to Genevieve to translate.

When Helga heard what they were planning, she instantly turned sober. She didn't drink much to begin with. She frantically tried to stop them but somehow they were too fast even when they were stumbling.
