The capital was dressed in pomp and splendor everywhere announcing the banquet later. The entertainment court of the palace grounds started to get busy with the arriving carriages of the lords and ladies. Almost everyone arrived in groups of their immediate family members. The grand hall was filled with the chatter of empty greetings and hollow praises. Almera arrived escorted by her four brothers and father wearing the lilac gown that Mira had designed for her. She was soon pulled away by the Buckworth sisters. Thomas had arrived earlier along with his parents and younger brother who was only ten years old. His eyes followed his beloved from the moment she entered the grand hall. He wanted to rush to her side and tell her how beautiful she looked… if only he could escape from the drooling of those boorish men… but he wasn’t lucky… not tonight! Almera giggled as she saw his terrible plight as she chatted with the Buckworth sisters. “Your best friend is here.” Patricia curled her l

Thomas’s situation wasn’t any better than Almera’s. He threw a side glance at her. His intention was to comfort her even though he himself was troubled. He was taken aback when he saw Almera giggling. “Has your dukedom paid the dowry to the dukedom of Amberton?” Cornelius repeated her accusations in the form of a question. “Yes.” “For clarity of this court, what was it that was paid in dowry?” “10 percent of the armed forces of Soren.” Danielle threw Almera a disdainful look and continued feigning a respectful expression “And 25 percent of the forces of the Soren at the beck and call of Amberton.” “Is this true?” Cornelius turned to the Duke of Soren, who could only nod. He then turned to the Dowager who too nodded. “Very well. Justice has to be served. I, Cornelius Richard the fourth am not only a just ruler but also a benevolent father and godfather.” Cornelius paused taking in the reaction of his subjects that were holding their breaths. “I decree not only as a godfather but
Second chance at happiness I have wronged you both.
Thomas and Almera were both powerful in their own right… Thomas was probably the most powerful Lord in the country, second to none other than the crown prince and yet they needed the intervention of a simpleton. That is because, there is nothing more powerful than knowledge and time. Even the king will be a victim of time if not used appropriately. Mira was fortunate, blessed by the heavens with the knowledge…. How she chose to use it was her discretion! Almera couldn’t wait to fly over and tell Mira all the gossip. But tonight, she didn’t have a chance. She had to first deal with her family and Thomas’s. Both she and Thomas swore inwardly that they would be Mira’s strongest backer, her shield. With the Queen’s indulgence, they both knew what Mira had forfeited for their happiness. Once the banquet was over and the crowd dispersed with the King and Queen leaving the banquet hall, the reaction of the crowd was vivid. The Dowager duchess of Amberton along with her bodyguards rushed o
Second chance at happiness Don't do something you don't know........
In Thomas’s apartment, the Duke and Duchess discussed the guest list, Arac was responsible for their accommodation and security arrangements, Food was Ferran’s responsibility. Tyson volunteered to organize everyone’s wardrobe for the event, but no one nodded. He pouted complaining about not being taken seriously and made a ruckus till Thomas gave him an important job, pass messages for him to his fiancée. Mira was working on the third blanket when the bell rang. She looked curiously at Jack. They weren’t expecting anyone. They had gathered with family on both sides on Friday. They quietly came out space and Jack opened the door. Almera and Thomas had runaway from the wedding madness to spend some time with Mira and Jack. They knew the couple didn’t need a ‘thank you’ so decided to cherish and protect the friendship. Almera ignored Jack’s shocked reaction and walked in “Mira, I have decided to take you up on the peace and quiet offer.” “Come … come…” Mira giggled as she invited the
Second chance at happiness Nothing is more important than you…
“Love, why did you refuse to attend the wedding?” Jack asked as they relaxed in the hot spring. He knew how much she valued Almera to give up her opportunity so that Almera could succeed and be happy. “The wedding will be huge… everyone who is a who’s who in the country and court will be there.” Mira whispered as she snuggled comfortably in his embrace. “I don’t know what your aunt has against you being in court… and us going to the wedding will bring unwanted attention on you.” She drew circles on his chest. “That will defeat the purpose of whatever aunt has been doing.” She raised her head to touch his face “Nothing is more important than you… not even Almera’s wedding.” Jack felt that his heart was dripped in honey as pink bubbles burst in front of his eyes. His lips curled up into a charming smile that Mira stared in a daze. She cutely pointed at her lips and demanded a kiss as she felt lazy to stretch and kiss him. Jack chuckled as he indulged his wife… but we know where the
Second chance at happiness You are not wise enough to understand the joke.
“Love… it’s me.” Jack chuckled as he turned Mira to face the mirror. “AAAAHHHHH” Mira screamed again as she saw an unfamiliar lady from far east country staring at her…. Wearing her clothes…. The shop keeper laughed happily “That is attestation that I am very good.” Mira blushed as she realized what Jack was up to… she was truly impressed. Her husband was very clever. They changed quickly, paid the gold coin that Jack had promised and got on the carriage prepared for them and left for the Royal cathedral. The cathedral was packed with anyone who is someone in the country. The guards diligently checked every invitation. Arac frowned as he saw the couple from the far east country. The reason for him frowning was as Thomas’s closest friend after Orseus, he didn’t know of any friends that Thomas had in far east country. But they had the card that was personally signed by Thomas. Thomas only signed a handful of cards…. The rest were done by staff of the Amberton estate. He wasn’t going
Second chance at happiness Am I not the love of your life?
Everyone returned after a day of celebration and merry making. Although Orseus joked in front of everyone, his gift for his sworn brother was their love nest, a beautiful palace with ornate gardens. This was where the newlyweds returned after their wedding. They named the beautiful palace ‘Love garden estate’. Although they received numerous gifts that were rare and precious, the one that had perked Almera’s interest and curiosity was the large lace silk bag from Mira. She didn’t look at it at the time as she didn’t recognize her and by the time she did, the line behind them had grown considerably. In order to not annoy the impatient lords, she decided to look at it later. The address on the top brought a smile to her lips. Thomas looked over to see the reason for his wife’s happiness and saw the inscription ““For a dear sister and her Marquess” --- “From your little idiot and the love of her life.” “Am I not the love of your life?” Thomas feigned a wronged expression. “You are.” A
Second chance at happiness Should I be embroidering with someone's blood?
By Friday morning, Mira was bored out of her skin and couldn’t wait to go to the shop. Almera was waiting for her as usual, the only difference being that her face had the blissful smile of a married woman who was loved and cherished by her husband. “You’re here.” Almera smiled as she pursed her lips mysteriously “I have something that will make you happy.” “What is it?” Mira asked in excitement. Almera took out 4 gold sheets and extended it towards Mira “This was delivered by the palace messenger as a payment for her beautiful gown.” “Really???” Mira’s eyes widened. She didn’t expect to get a payment for the work. “Um” Almera nodded. “The cloth was also delivered by the queen.” “Don’t feel bad. She paid me for the dressmaking as well.” Almera giggled “Our queen is very rich, don’t worry.” “In that case…” Mira smiled as she snatched the gold sheets and kept them in her square shaped pouch. She handed the four completed work and Almera paid her 75 gold coins for each work. She ha
