**The Borrower—Elephant Music**
Apart from rumours of the scandal that Ember was enshrouded in, a bigger surprise was waiting for her when she met the Mistress of the Valkarian household.
Madam Valkarian was none other than her first mentor from almost eight years ago.
The eight hundred vampire woman without a name who had taught her in great detail the 'art of deception.'
The same woman whose family supposedly owed the Queen's mother a debt of gratitude.
It was quite shocking. Even as the white haired seemingly thirty year old woman dismissed the servants until they were alone in the room.
"It's you… Master." Ember gasped, staring at who she might consider her strangest tutor.
If not for anything, then for the fact that she remained nameless.
"There were certain circumstances that called for my anonymity at the time." She drawled, picking up her fine ware cup filled with a reddish liquid.
