For some time, Alina heard only the indistinct rare exclamations of the master when he turned the pages and saw new drawings. Alina drew a part of her new collection in great detail, both in color according to real sizes, and in individual details, she approached her first collection and presentation so seriously. And it was clear that the master appreciated its result.And what do you want, this is not the twenty-first century in her world, where special programs made it possible to calculate the exact cost of a product based on the type of materials, weight and many other parameters. And what precise sketches could be made in her world. But here everything is done by hand, everything is done by myself, but the head remembers for all the years of experience. Yes, she has not yet worked out a machine gun in her new body, but that is why she drew so much. Just to fill your hand, to combine the knowledge that is in your head and the skill in your hands.And here is the result of her wor
Señor Maggi sat on an armchair opposite Alina and calmly examined her. The thoughts that wandered through his head were unknown to her, but his gaze, as if trying to drill a hole in her, was somewhat unnerving. It cost her a lot of work to sit quietly on the couch without fidgeting, although she felt extremely uncomfortable. Silently examining her all, he clearly made his own conclusions about her and decided to start a conversation, frankly asking:Your smell bothers me. Frankly speaking, I do not know who to consider you, so let's leave small talk for another situation, and now let's talk frankly, do you agree?He spoke Italian, Alina understood almost everything, hoping that her knowledge would be enough for answers, so she continued in the native language for the owner of this land:Yes, I am ready to answer your questions. What do you want to ask me?Señor Maggi leaned back in his chair, raising his chin, and asked thoughtfully:The smell, it immediately confused me. You do not s
Alina gave birth according to plan, without nerves and complications. She calmly reached the entire term, which the doctor warned her about, although she had her first child. But the werewolves had their own characteristics in these moments. A strong child will develop until the end of the term, and the birth itself with such children passes quickly. Werewolf children are strong, tenacious and more adapted to life already at the moment of birth. And her baby literally flew out of her like a cork. It's good that Laura insisted on a planned transfer to the hospital.By the end of her pregnancy, it was difficult for Alina to sit at her desk for a long time, although the order was brought to her even a little ahead of schedule. The woodworker was interested in her sketch of a changing chest and a bed, which she sketched in the workshop when visiting the shop, and he brought the order himself, hoping to talk calmly with an unusual customer.Alina in her past life furnished her apartment an
Lord Uvarov stood and watched his son leave for the station. He was glad that his son himself managed to negotiate with Lord Severin, although he insisted on an open conversation with his idol. “The son is still young and hot. But he will be a strong leader if he can survive in that meat grinder that can begin at any moment. And it's still early, too early. I still have time, most importantly, caution. Son, heir, safe, next month for sure. Daughter under vigilant supervision, also good. Now let's see what happens next."Lord Nathan was glad that Sergei was honest and frank with him. This feature at one time attracted his attention. In the future, he would be a good head of the clan, Nathan was sure. And today, while they are driving, there is time to rethink his last conversation with Lord Uvarov and the current head of the Council. If he had not been a little prepared for the information that the head had told him, he would have reacted much more emotionally.Lord Uvarov invited him
"It's just some kind of deja vu!" There was a feeling that the day when Alina first saw Senor Madzhi was completely repeated. She went to the estate at about the same time, the same maid met her, and she also escorted her to the office. There was only one, but a small difference. “And if you decide to inquire, Senor Magi, then an unexpected surprise awaits you.” Alina already saw the surprise of the maid, which she did not have time to hide.Federico Maggi stood up at her entrance, greeted her and pointed to the sofa, the same one where she had sat for the first time.- Have a seat. I talked about you with Laura, you communicate well, don't you? - He looked inquiringly at Alina, she silently nodded, and he continued: - And I heard only good things about you, both from her and from other employees and members of the clan. I am glad that you are behaving with dignity, because you are my guest, and I am responsible for you. I heard that you really study with Master Spagnoli, and you have
Alina stared in a stupor at the finger pointing straight at her.- So this is my right, Senora Rossi! I want to build my life and find a person close to me, relying not on smell, but on feelings.She became even more angry and exclaimed, waving her hands:- What do you think it is? and pointed to her wrist. - This is proof that there will be feelings, that you have found someone who will not only feel passion for you, or love, this is someone with whom you will be comfortable living, who suits your character, internally, with whom you will I wonder who will be tuned specifically for you. And why did you say only about the person? You don't consider werewolves at all? But you have a daughter, a werewolf, and you raise her. What do you feel about us werewolves in general, do you have any resentment towards us?Alina realized that she was on a slippery slope. After all, out of habit, she spoke only about people, since in her entire past life she considered them only as partners. Which is
Over the next week, Alina managed to complete the concept of her first collection, reflecting it in the album, for clarity. She even considered how best to arrange her collection in Master Spagnoli's shop. Given that they periodically called each other, the master was already impatient, promising not to wait and die of curiosity. Alina immediately showed a small part of the sketches and sketches to the master at the meeting, clearly explaining, reflecting in a pencil, her idea. And then she even brought a couple of blanks, including in the form of separate elements.The master was delighted with the scale of the idea, having learned about Alina's plans. But he strictly demanded to show several finished works before he makes a decision. Alina decided to do more. And she also came up with jewelry with filigree elements for going to iconic places: for official invitations, to the theater, to parties, to a ball. True, there was a collection in the form of ready-made sets: earrings-necklac
Alina agreed in the city with the craftsman Sposito on deliveries, he asked to expand the assortment and use more interesting and attractive stones, which the craftsmen had not previously used in jewelry.Master Sposito was a good businessman and felt the real interest of the jaded public in the novelty: beauty, unusualness and rarity, these are the main factors. After all, professionally made jewelry from the best semi-precious and ornamental stones is the key to success. Here, masters did not undertake to make jewelry from such stones before. And they worked very little with metal wire. With alloys of base metals and even less.And Alina worked. In her world, she went through so many suppliers until she found her own, that she could without mistake choose those stones that would look most advantageous when finished. And her level of filigree in many jewelry was simply captivating.The conversation with Master Sposito about his apprentice and transfer of apprenticeship went smoothly.
