“They said lady Rosetta, your fiancee, did not wake up after having fainted a week ago.”
The Head of the Household, Maximilian Ash, reporting to Lucas. The tall man in the glasses who had been serving Carleton's family for twenty years felt compelled to tell the rumors he had heard.
Lucas who had previously looked out of the window turned immediately. His facial expression stiffened and his jaw hardened.
“Did something bad happened before?” asked Max, his nickname. “They said Lady Rosetta was too shook up of something so be that way.”
“Prepare the horses! I’m leaving to Grasswall right now,” Lucas said shortly.
Despite his confusion, Max hunched in and turned out to do the young master’s bidding.
Meanwhile, Lucas turned to the waiter to pick up his official clothes and robes. In castle Coldine, Lucas was alone because his father and stepmother wer
The young man with golden hair and deep black eyes gazed at his beloved’s face in bed. Her cheeks were flushed with fever, and a small towel was wet to her forehead.In these circumstances, Rosetta looks pretty weak. So different from the independent, elegant, and beautiful impression that is usually seen when she appears in public.Who would have thought that a beautiful girl, the Marchioness and Duchess Riverdale to-be had frail bodies? Even today, the doctor has given up to check what is wrong.Guilt got into Lucas’s heart. He didn’t expect the misunderstanding made Rosetta got sick like this. Because Lucas couldn’t explain what had happened properly, Rosetta got miserable.“Leave us alone,” Lucas instructed all the maids in the room.“Yes, Your Majesty.”Five minutes later, the room was empty. Leaving Lucas holding Rosetta’s hand tighter while kneel
Lucas's feet steps to the hall of Rosewood castle. As expected, the knight at the entrance is holding back a girl who insisted.“Please help me!” The girl yelled, insistent.“No way!” The two soldiers were ready to drag the girl away, before Lucas emerged from the hallway.“Stop!” shouted Lucas. His heart pounded as he looked out at the front door, watching over whoever was there.Two uniformed knights carrying a girl with short black hair. Lucas’s heart seemed to burst as soon as it did.“Did you not know that she was King Nicholas’s daughter?” asked Lucas. His pace steadily approaches.The two soldiers looked puzzled. They were ordered to close the doors for any guests except the nearest one. Even so, they also ordered by Alden that the Princess must not come.“Sorry, Your Highness. She could not come in,“ replied one of
Flora scoffed, looking hesitantly at the basket. Though, she accepted it.“Okay. You can wait in the living room,” Flora said. Escort Lucas and Princess Sonya to a room next to Rosetta room.“Thank you, Flora,” said Princess Sonya, sitting down and widening her smile. Was countered by that cynical look from the instant maid.“I’m quite sad. Lady Rosetta was very ill. I fear the lady will never awaken again.”Suddenly Princess Sonya broke down and took a handkerchief from her pocket to cover her nose.“Lady Rosetta is a strong girl. She’ll recover soon,“ Lucas replied, “I know that.”Princess Sonya was stunned. Looking at Lucas telling of the diseases Lady Rosetta had been able to cope with. That tone implied pride was curiously painful for Princess Sonya.The girl with short hair touched her left chest. All the while her h
His male instinct said Lucas had to kiss those sensual thin lips. So he did. At first he intended to stick it for a while and then apologize, but the sweet look of the princess melting because the kiss made Lucas feel even more alive.It’s a big mistake, Lucas knows that. But he doesn’t care at all. To hell with the future Duke Riverdale. Don’t care if he’s Rosetta’s fiance. Lucas wants this girl.Princess Sonya doesn’t know what else to say but enjoy drowning in Lucas’s tongue games. The young, golden-haired hansome man who was always with Lady Rosetta now kissed her full of love.“Your Majesty,” whispered Princess Sonya in the middle of the kiss. Her face heated and their breath met.On the other side, Flora rushing went into the room. He saw Alden that didn’t leave his place on the Rosetta’s side.“Did she really wake up now?“ asked Flora.
Rosetta fixed the white cravats on Lucas’s neck, as well as his undercollar clothing. But how that possible happen when Lucas’s personal butler was a perfectionist about putting his clothes on?“It’s …,“ Lucas avoided the look by Rosetta.“Oh, never mind. Come sit. By the way I want to say something to you,“ Rosetta says. Smiling sweetly at the joy of waking.“Incidentally, I also have something to talk to you about,” Lucas said as well.Rosetta frowned. During the course of the conversation, Lucas never once looked her in the eye as usual. The young man was busy turning his eyes, or glancing at the door. The previous thought faded, giving way to curiosity.“Uh, what is it?“ ask Rosetta.This time Lucas really looked over. “Come on in.”Rosetta followed Lucas’s gaze. From a door opened by Alden, st
Aelton, 1895.“Why are we here?“ asked Lucas, glancing at the fiancee as he strode his right arm.“I’ve prepared something for us,“ replied her beloved, a twenty-year-old young woman named Rosetta.The tanned eyes of the eldest daughter of the Marquess Grasswall look upon her fiance with love. For her, that man with a firm jaw and a pointy nose was the only one in the world.Lucas gave a slight smile in response to the beloved’s words, deciding not to ask again. The two of them walked to a place in the middle of the backyard of Coldina Castle.After walking for about five minutes, the couple arrived in a glasshouse. At the corner of the park, it planted a whole range of plants that were not in the park. A special place belonging to Lucas's late mother, Irma.“You prepared all this?” asked Lucas. His black eyes rolled around the edge of a glass house covered with Hydrangea flowers. It doesn’t blossom because it’s
Lucas and Rosetta come to their senses when it is quiet. The classical music that had been heard has stopped. Leaving behind the buzzing of crickets that swarms the other night's insects.The kissing session ended softly, but left a little awkward. It’s not the first time Lucas and Rosetta did it. Still, the strange taste exists.“Ahem, how about we go back inside?“ offered Lucas, his cheek blush.Rosetta, who still fixed the breathing rate, nodded and then squeezed Lucas’s arm. Her cheeks felt so hot. By hand, Rosetta fixed up her dark red strands.When the door came between the back porch and the hall, all eyes were immediately drawn toward the couple. The young girls smiled shyly behind their hand fans, while the young men laughed quietly.“My Lord,” greeted some of the nobles that Lucas passed by, they bowing and bending knees.Lucas answered with a nod and then turned his eyes to the Rosetta that was able t
“Prince Michael Leon and Princess Sarah Elma have arrived!”The doorman’s voice echoed through the hall. A conversation that swelled to the ceiling came to an abrupt end. Everyone locked their lips tightly and turned their eyes toward the door.There a nineteen-year-old girl stood. In the tops of the silk dresses with the tops off the shoulder and the cropped skirt parts, Princess Sarah looked adorable.Especially with her dark hair so simple. Her bangs were left loose as well. No extravagant hair accessories, except a small tiara, as a symbol of her royal family.“Good evening everybody,“ greet Princess Sarah with a smile. The chubby cheeks that had always been reddish pinched when the corners of her lips curved.“Your majesty,” all nobles reply. Simultaneously bow or bend the knee. Saluting deeply.It wasn’t just the Princess who came. A tall boy in a black suit and a princely coat accompany her next door. The

“Mmhhmm, Lucas,” Princess Sonya whispered as she bit her lip as Lucas was touch her sensitive area.Rosetta’s head whirling now. The whirlpool of pain increases in her chest, plus zhe’s forced to see the make love between a young boy who’s the center of her world and a lowly foreign girl.Not that Rosetta hated the stupid princess, but if she hadn’t seen this dream, it would have been a pop.What mistake has Rosetta made for being punished in this way? In the past, Rosetta was almost never involved with the royal family. But suddenly everything changed since the debutante party.“Lucas, how dare you??“ faint Rosetta with wet eyes in tears.The soft hisses and moans will echo through the room. The sounds of love became sharp thorns piercing Rosetta’s ears. Torture her slowly.Lucas Carleton was the only man who Rosetta loved, and now he’s making love to
The floor shows a big crack like a black hole. Suddenly Princess Sonya pushed her off and then Rosetta fell without a chance to fight back.When will this nightmare end? It was a question that filled Rosetta’s head as she fell into the darkness.An entire body numb. Numb is no joke. In the infinite darkness without the end, she is alone. Without Flora that will accompany, or Alden who ready to protect. Totally alone.Only the pain of the heart remains in her chest. Loyal companion in every sorrow. Rosetta’s only got herself.The girl just wants this nightmare over before she goes crazy. Rosetta just wants to wake up from sleep, so she can run to Lucas’s castle to protect her from Princess Sonya.However, it seems that the heavens or whoever sends a gift of future dreams to Rosetta will not allow that. It’s like you’re forced to spend hours at the opera that you hate. Can’t get out, n
The dark-haired girl pushed the people aside. Being stubborn to get off the bench. No one’s holding her this time, so Rosetta can walk right up to the altar real quick.“Stop!” shouted Rosetta, “Please stop this marriage!”Princess Sonya hugs her arms around Lucas's. They were both standing at the altar, opposite the priest. Rosetta was screaming, whimpering, trying to pull Lucas over, but it seemed no interference could stop the ceremony.“You are now legally married to each other.“ The priest said after Princess Sonya and Lucas pinned each other annulary with rings.Rosetta turns around. Not to see Princess Sonya and Lucas kiss each other. Cheers of joy shot up to the ceiling. Her legs are weak, she collapses instantly. Her knees were sore and her chest was hurt so bad.Rosetta looked up, staring at the dome with an angel painting. But now the angels look back at Rosetta. Wit
