Second chance at happiness My tribute to the king.
“What’s there to be proud of?” Joan twisted her lips that were painted red in disdain “They are just entering in Mira’s name. They will be seated with us after all.” She didn’t notice the purple badge in their hands. Emma lowered her head and pursed her lips resentfully. ‘Why didn’t they look back? Did they not hear her in this crowd?’ The attendants who were guiding the people to their seats bought Mira’s group to their seats which was in the third row and had a good view of everything in the center. “Madam, you have to sit in the front row with the contestants.” The attendant informed Mira by looking at her circular badge. “Um” Mira nodded as she turned to Jack and adjusted his hat to cover his face with an affectionate gaze “I will be back.” “Um” Mira walked with the attendant to the front row and giggled as she heard her father’s sigh “Only husband in her eyes… we old men are totally ignored!” Almera was already seated waiting for Mira. The two held hands first in excitemen

She regained composure and sat up straight in a few mins. Almera pressed her hand as she saw her despair. Mira smiled to gesture that she was okay. A stout man dressed in rich silk and pot belly walked to the front with a haughty expression. “I can bet anything that this is not his work.” Almera whispered “This is the second lord of Soren. Not a single good root in the lot.” Mira looked at Almera in confusion. “They must have commissioned someone from overseas to do the work.” Almera shrugged “That is not against the rules.” Mira nodded in understanding. Lord Soren walked with his entry with a smug smile. He too had chosen royal red velvet cloth. He had embroidered a beautiful peacock in the centre with feathers cascading throughout the robe. It was definitely a beautiful piece. “Tell me about your design.” “Beauty…. Beauty and beauty” Lord Soren laughed happily thinking his answer was witty. “Why did you choose this concept?” One of the judges who was irritated with his smug

“This work is most certainly exquisite but quite heavy.” One of the judges who had previously stretched out his hand to touch the robe asked with narrowed eyes “Do you think it is ideal to have such a heavy work for a king to wear? Weren’t you being thoughtless?” There was a tinge of admiration in his eyes although his question was sharp. “Not in the least.” Mira didn’t cower to answer this pointed question. “Unfortunately, that is a burden for whoever sits on that throne has to bear. It is definitely not easy.” Mira feigned a regretful expression before raising her head with a mischievous smile “And my design is definitely a gentle reminder. Didn’t I say the splendor was an illusion compared to the weight of the responsibility?” The whole court burst out laughing with Cornelius in the lead. Orseus couldn’t muck around like his father, but he was most impressed and hid his laughter with a few coughs. The only faces that were not happy were the Slegh’s and Joan. “Eloquent…” Lord Dul

The crowd started chanting their favorite works… it was divided …. There were also those fawning on Lord Sween. “Number ….” The royal messenger paused again with a cheeky chuckle. The crowd held their breath as they waited…. “Number 555- Mira Jackson urf Lady Mira Marsden” Mira stared with misty eyes… she turned around to look at Jack. He gestured a flying kiss to encourage her while Almera kept nudging her to get up. Old master Slegh sat like he lost his soul; the two young masters were not much better, only Caster sat there like an infatuated fool. “Marsden…. Marsden…. Yes… Marsden….” Lord Dulston shouted excitedly…. But the crowd was too loud for anyone other than his sons to hear. “Dad???” “That’s the bastard who married my sister…my Bella…. Your aunt.” Lord Dulston was too excited for words “That…. That …is little Bella.” The Dulston brothers including Aldrin stared skeptically at their father. Cyrus thought his sons didn’t believe him and explained “Well, your aunt marrie

Mira nodded; She was aware that although the prize was announced for five favors, it was also announced that it could be made redundant during the process of making the requests. The reason for the latter half of the decree was simple. A stop gap measure in case the winner didn’t know the immensity of the heavens and earth. “State them before King and country in the order of the most cherished one first, so that none may judge the king unjust.” The royal messenger finished his proclamation and handed the loudspeakers, one to Mira and the other to Orseus. Orseus looked to his father who nodded before he sat back on the throne of judgement. “Your majesty” Mira bowed low in respect “Pray pardon my insolence if my first request were to offend his highness.” Orseus pursed his lips in curiosity and waved his arm to grant permission. “Your majesty, I pray for the title to be bestowed equally on me and husband.” Mira paused “If this is not possible, I pray for your majesty’s kindness in ac

Orseus ordered with a solemn expression “You shall return their papers of servitude to them tomorrow." "The court guards will bear witness to this exchange; they shall continue to reside in their current residence to the very moment of exchange.” Orseus continued to state the rules. He was smart enough to guess that there must have been a reason for Mira to use her precious favor to request freedom when she could easily buy it with her prize money. He took care of the request with sincerity removing all possible obstacles for her as he knew his mother liked the person in front of him and their relationship with Thomas. Old master Slegh and his sons bowed to acknowledge. John couldn’t believe his ears. He never even for a second thought he would see the day when he was a freeman again. He hugged Beth overwhelmed with emotion as she wiped her tears that were fiercely streaming down her cheeks. They looked at Jack through misted eyes. Jack shrugged; he couldn’t take credit for this.

“All rise.” The royal messenger announced as Orseus stood up from his seat to leave the hall. The king’s private legion of guards ushered the royal family and the members of Mira’s family to the King’s private chamber while the crowd in the hall were left to be dispersed in an orderly manner by the palace guards. Once everyone was settled and the guards left the room, Orseus looked at Mira with a sizing gaze and ordered “Speak” “Your highness, I need your word that anything I speak from this moment will not leave the four walls of this room before it is resolved.” Mira shook her head. She was still not confident in voicing her request. Orseus narrowed his eyes. “I swear on my legions to King and country.” Thomas stood up to support; He knew his sworn brother was on the verge of losing his patience. The rest of the members in the room, including Jack, stood up to swear. Mira giggled as she saw Jack standing to swear the oath but soon covered up with a cough as she felt a burning g

Orseus raised his eyebrows as he looked towards Thomas, trying to restrain the smirk spreading from his lips as he saw the blatant expression of love from the lovebirds in front of him. This was torture to a single man like him. His sworn brother had no intention of reciprocating his sentiments. Orseus turned his attention to the only two single dogs in the crowd and his lips curled up. Martin was rolling his eyes while Oden had a smirk…. They understood! “The person I used to like …... before my marriage…” Mira’s voice was barely audible, a whisper; She didn’t raise her head… she was too embarrassed, but she had to voice this concern as she felt it was a vital clue to the mystery. “That person was with me to find out where the seal of the Zumerong’s was kept. He has asked me about it in a roundabout way many times. Luckily for me and sadly for him, I didn’t know much about this until recently.” Cornelius rubbed his forehead as analyzed all the information he had just received and s

Second chance at happiness How could a leopard hide its spots?
Matthew and Harry stood in front of the weird looking mansion with an unreadable expression. There was a reason for their mood; this was the very mansion that they had won in a gamble along with their dear friend, Jerome in their carefree younger days. The mansions aesthetics were the result of their rebellion towards the norms that existed regarding the do's and don’t of building mansions for nobility.They had never thought of this place as they had never returned after wining the bet and remodelling the place. Gradually as their days and exploits became too many to count on fingers, as their adventures and achievements started to leave a mark on every feat they undertook, as one of the first and more insignificant feat, this place seemed to lose its original lustre and was tucked away in their memories, only to be forgotten; But now that they were standing in front of it, how could they not remember?The trio had personally deformed the place with their own hands and with the guidan
Second chance at happiness You have benefitted from your misfortune
Matthew left Southamberston palace in the wee hours of the morning, he didn’t take the carriage that was carefully prepared for him and took the horse that he had taken a fancy to and rode off; his first stop was his office to leave instructions for his assistant and also to let them know that he wouldn’t be coming in for the next 2 days due to urgent family matter.As soon as Matthew came out of the chamber of trade and book of hereditary rights, he saw Harry waiting anxiously, next to his ride, mounted and ready to bolt the minute he came.“You took the beauty even before I woke up…” Harry chuckled as he leaned forward and rubbed the mane of Matthew's ride “You didn’t play fair.”“Hur … .hur…hur…” Matthew chuckled smugly as he jumped on to his ride and the two friends rode, bickering non-stop just like the good old days.It took half a day of riding non-stop to reach the west end of the water tribe county, the poor horses were ridden to their death when they finally alighted at the i

They returned to the manor by late afternoon and had the footman deliver all the items that they had purchased from Old Joe to the cottage where Martha and the rest were staying.As they were planning to leave, Jack called Lazarus to instruct him to leave behind 2 men to guard the manor.“Your grace, two men won’t be enough to cover the expanse of the land.” Lazarus shook his head as he explained “The woods of the manor border three other properties of which one is commoner property, and one belongs to someone who does not have a good reputation. Now that your grace’s status has been elevated, there might be unnecessary eyes on the property.” He paused before adding “I have brought six men that can be left here to guard the place if your grace permits.”“Go ahead.” Jack nodded while Mira asked in a low voice “Can those men cook on their own? Should we transfer a cook from the main house?”“They are rough men… they can take care of themselves.” Lazarus shook his head although he was hap
Second chance at happiness I must have saved the whole world in my previous life.
For the rest of the morning, Mira taught Sierra how to make the flowers and leaves with the remaining satin cloth she had in space; of course, she pretended to take the spare cloths from her work room in the manor. She stayed with them for the entire morning, until the Jack came over with grievance in his eyes “Wife, I am hungry.”“Aha…. I forgot …. Wait, I will make you, your favorite meal.” Mira smiled sweetly as she rushed to pacify her husband.Jessie, Martha and Sierra struggled to hold their laughter till the shameless couple walked away before bursting out laughing.Once lunch was ready, Mira didn’t forget to give more than half of the meal to Martha “Call everyone and share among yourself.”“Thank you” Martha bowed as she whispered in a soft voice. They were just worrying about food when their master brought them a generous share of meat and bread. In their excitement to start a new life, at Mira’s invitation, they grabbed their belonging and set off in the morning without thin
Second chance at happiness In our heart, you will be family, our little sister.
“Are you crazy?” Mira frowned once she saw what was written; previously when they were discussing although she couldn’t hear them, she assumed that they were discussing how long they wanted to work for her. She felt like she had crows flying around her head once she read what Sierra had scribbled; before she could stop them, she had done the same to Martha’s contract. Martha hurriedly signed as she heard Mira, worried that she would stop her and grinned happily as she handed the contract saying, “Its signed.” “Yeah… now you cannot get rid of us in this lifetime.” Sierra too laughed happily. Mira seemed momentarily lost in a daze; she forgot to respond; she remembered that they had said the same thing in their last life when they found her sitting on her own and crying her heart out, overwhelmed by loneliness. They sat on either side of her and promised her that they would always accompany her, never leaving her side and even joked with the same words 'you cannot get rid of us in thi
Second chance at happiness Where do I sign?
The carriage stopped at the manor; it was a short ride. Jack and Mira alighted from the carriage without waiting for the etiquette that was customary in the circle of nobility.Mira’s face lit up, her lips curling up into a blissfully happy arc as she whispered, “We are back.”“Um” Jack habitually snaked his arm around her waist and walked forward; he raised his hand to gesture the footman to stay back, conveying that their services were no longer required.“Help the ladies with their luggage and rest after that till we are ready to leave.” Mira turned around and instructed in a gentle tone at the footman who was waiting eagerly for his master’s orders while Jack opened the doors.“Let’s open the side gate and lead the ladies to their homes before resting.” Mira spoke softly, as she looked at the footmen who were carrying the heavy suitcase over.“Um” Jack nodded and silently walked over to the side wicket gate on the right side of the manor and opened it. He walked in along with Mira;
Second chance at happiness I could sell my soul to the devil for that chance
“I asked you if there is a chance….” Mira smiled mischievously “What will you be willing to do to get that chance?”“I could sell my soul to the devil for that chance.” Jessie’s face beamed with genuine happiness as she boldly declared; there wasn't even the slightest hint of hesitation on her face.“How about selling it to me?” Mira lifted her chin arrogantly, her lips curling in a happy arc “I am much prettier and kinder than the devil.”Jack inwardly shook his head helplessly as he looked at his wife, who was smiling happily like a sly fox, with eyes filled with affection.“Ha….ha…ha…” Jessie laughed watching Mira’s adorable actions before sighing “Thank you for listening so patiently. I don’t know why I told you all this. I don’t even know you.”“I am not joking.” Mira’s expression turned serious “What if I can give you that chance? Are you willing?”Jessie looked at Mira for a long time with a sizing gaze before shaking her head, “Why me? I have nothing to offer.”Mira pursed her
Second chance at happiness Why do you want to stay married to someone who doesn’t want you?
“My husband lives with his family in their estate. He wanted me to stay back in the countryside till he convinced his relatives of the idea of us being married and bring me along once he received everyone’s approval, but my father disagreed. He rented this apartment for me so that I could be close to my husband.” Jessie’s voice became lower and lower as she spoke; she didn’t know why she was pouring her heart out to the lady in front of her but she wanted to… she didn’t feel any reservation when she was talking with her.“I see.” Mira nodded in understanding; it was the same as in their previous life but why was the timeline different? She thought for a few minutes before pushing it to the back of her mind. She looked at Jessie and asked “Will your husband be angry if you are not there when he comes? Do you want to head back?”“He won’t come.” Jessie bit her lips “He has never come to see me in these two weeks. He dumped me here and left as though he was fleeing for his life.” She shru

The caretaker walked over to apartment 53 once he made sure Carl and Oden had all the ledgers and materials they required. He knocked loudly and waited patiently without a trace of his usual impatience and disdain. He had a feeling that the tenants in this apartment were very important to the duke and duchess; he stood reflecting on whether he had done anything excessive in the past.He sighed in relief inwardly once he finished introspection; he hadn’t done anything excessive other than his usual impatience and grumpiness. He had even given them some extra time to catch up rent on several occasions.“Mr Williams.” Sierra greeted with a bored expression as she opened the door. She had no idea why this grinch would come so early to their apartment to take the joy out of their life. She knew their rent was due; it was not like they were going to run away or anything. Martha’s funds would be soon depleted, and they couldn’t afford to keep staying here any longer. They needed to figure a w
