Second chance at happiness What does the dragon want?
“Jason….” However, what awaited was not a heartbroken man running towards her to take her in his arms but a disdainful voice “Not dead yet?” “Why?” Mira raised her head painfully with every ounce of her strength. She wanted to know why but she couldn’t hear anything that the person in front of her was saying as she could hear another pain filled voice calling out to her…. asking her to wake up…. begging her not to leave him alone… promising her that he would always stay by her side. Mira wanted to look around her as she knew this sound…... she felt that a lifetime had passed since she heard this voice…. She wanted to leave this miserable place and rush towards the voice calling out to her. As Mira struggled to rush to the voice, she found her herself sitting up in bed, sweating all over…. Jack was sitting next to her trying to wake her up. Her eyes met his worried eyes and all the restlessness from her dreams magically settled down. That’s right… fate had given her another chance t

Hours earlier- The Sleghs decided to end the workday at 10 and start the feast for all workers. Office workers had a different area to farm hands and outdoor workers. The masters often mingled in both areas to improve their image among the workers. There was a reason to start the celebration early, the Sleghs were not a generous bunch. Old master’s shrewd mind was behind this. He had heard from Lotta that Jack and Mira came to the city together on Friday. He didn’t want to take a chance to create an opportunity for Jack to escape and deny his daughter her last chance. This early arrangement was on the off chance that Jack had arranged with Mira to come early. He had checked with Jack’s supervisor and was informed that Jack had only stayed for 10 or 15 minutes in the previous years. Jack packed up and went to toast his supervisor and request permission to leave. The three Slegh masters came up to the supervisor just as Jack finished toasting. “Won’t you toast a drink with us?” Cole

“I will ask you one last time, are you going to investigate what happened to my husband and restore his good name?” Mira tried to lift Jack from the ground as she stood up. “Get lost.” Old master yelled in rage. Caster was staring smitten at the beautiful lady in front. She suited his taste very much. His lips curled up as he thought of his next prey. He turned his head to nod at John and Oden who were standing stuck to the ground. John and Oden rushed to Mira side and carried Jack. “I will take two of your workers to help me carry my husband to my cart.” Mira curled her lips arrogantly “How much does the old master want to claim as compensation?” “Lady, I know you are upset.” Caster spoke with a gentle smile “But that is no reason to be rude. My workers are helping you. There is no payment for help.” “Dare to write that down and not penalize the unfortunate worker who helped later?” Mira was like a wounded tigress. Attacking anyone and everyone that came her way. She also had an

Mira sobbed as she kept whispering her fears as she kissed him for the last time as she steeled her mind; In desperation, Mira transported them into her space. She raised her head as she felt the grass. Her eyes filled with hope as she remembered the hot spring and the healers’ words…. “Warm him inside out…” She carried him with great difficulty stopping and falling all the way to the hot spring. She took the house key out of his pocket and gently immersed him in the hot spring before taking of her cloths and joining him. She hugged him tightly trying to warm him and also in an effort to keep his body up to his neck fully immersed in water with the exception of his head. Her eyes started to fill with hope as she saw his lips regaining color. She stayed with him till he regained consciousness. How long? She didn’t know. “Love?” Jack called weakly as her hot tears which never stopped kept wetting his face. “Husband….” Mira called out excitedly “Your awake.” She smiled through her tear

“Wife I am truly sorry… forgive me…. I can’t live without you…. I just wanted you to be happy. I don’t want you to suffer.” Jack hugged her tighter refusing to let go. He had wronged her…twice in one day…. “Happy?” Mira narrowed her eyes “Do you think I will be happy without you? Happy without you holding me close?” Her voice wavered. “I was wrong.” Jack stood up to kiss her tears away… he barely managed to stand firm for a second before loosing balance…Mira held on to him tightly. She kissed him and came out of space. “I will forgive you this last time.” Mira hmphed. She didn’t want to cause him more distress…. She was not really angry… she just wanted to teach him a lesson, not to have such thoughts. “I won’t dare…” Jack shook his head childishly as he hugged her refusing to let go. “Lie down now.” Mira led him to bed. She entered space from their bedroom close to their bed as she didn’t know what state Jack would be in when she had to bring him back. She took their blanket fro

Mira had lots to do. She closed the door, locked it and went to the room to check on Jack. He was truly exhausted… he was sleeping. She tucked him in with the blanket and entered space to start on his coat. She patterned the embroidery envisioning a two-piece coat set. The pattern she decided on was one that was not popular in her country. It was a picture she had seen in the house of the ambassador of far east island in her previous life. She loved the explanation the lady of the house gave her… this flower… known as cherry blossom symbolizes the everlasting friendship and love in a life that is fleeting. She tried to reconstruct the picture in her head as she started to work on the design. For the suit coat, the whole of the cloth was embroidered branches filled with cherry blossom flowers; On the left flap of the coat, slightly on the side of the chest she embroidered two love birds resting their heads together. The vest was embroidered with cherry blossom flowers connected by bran

“Come… join us for dinner although it is a humble soup today.” Mira invited with a big smile. “We just had dinner before leaving home.” Almera whispered giggling “Dowager Duchess came to visit and complain.” Mira nodded giggling. “How’s Jack?” Thomas asked as they sat down in the front room. “He’s better now.” Mira nodded. Matthew and Harry came out after they finished eating. Both their steps paused as they saw Thomas. “Baldwin?” They blurted out in stupor. “Huh?” Thomas raised his head to look at the two elders. He stood up in respect even though they were below his station as he understood them to be Mira’s parents. “That is my father.” Thomas pursed his lips “You know him?” “Of course…. Of course…” Harry laughed to hide his embarrassment while Matthew was a bit more reserved. “Otherwise, he would have had to drink the elixir of youth.” Harry chuckled before turning to Mira with raised eyebrows. “Godfather, let me introduce.” Mira smiled sweetly “This is my ….” “I know m

Next, they stopped at Aldrin’s shop. Mira needed a lot of materials. She got herself a few large rolls of silk threads of different colors, a few different shades of green, red, grey golden, silver, pink, 10 marks of yellow beads, 5 marks of two shades of orange 5 marks each of reflective metal bits that were line shaped in green, brown, red, different shades of blue, white, orange and yellow color and 10 marks of small white pearls. They were also smaller rolls of various colors. “Did we rob the treasury?” Aldrin looked in shock at the generous amount of things Mira took. Mira rolled her eyes. Almera and Thomas didn’t come, they were sitting in the carriage debating whether Almera should wear what Mira suggested. Thomas was brave to fight a losing battle… He still hung up his sword with dignity, not feeling embarrassed in the slightest at losing. “Seriously… do you know how much this is going to cost you?” Aldrin still couldn’t believe it. “Are you not going to tell me?” Mira aske

I have not sent anyone to follow her as this will only jeopardise everything. There are too many eyes on my every move, and I cannot afford a single miscalculation.

If anything, untoward should happen to him, God forbid, I have instructed your men who have already been moved there to lend a hand.Your elder brother is too incompetent and have stretched myself beyond my limit and hence can only humbly beg your forgiveness and hope to atone some day when we meet. May the gods be willing and grant my prayer.If things don’t go according to plan, I will have instructed uncle and aunt to go to the castle I had bought in the kingdom of Barr; I have instructed my good friend, Uzi, the Duke of Warringal, to protect them. Most of our father’s men both household men and men in arms, will go with them. They will not come back unless one of us calls them back.Stormwall has been renamed Southamberston by the king but do not worry. Everything wi

Inside the trunk was a bow and quiver with arrows, both the bow and arrows had an image of a griffin engraved on it; the quiver too had a life-like griffin embroidered on it. There was also a dagger and a long sword with its sheath; while the sheath was embroidered with images of a griffin, both the dagger and the sword had its hilt in the shape of a griffin head. There was also a shield, with a magnificent and ferocious griffin embossed on the face of the shield.The only other things in the trunk were the full chainmail armour, an elaborate waist belt, a leather pouch, a set of tubular bells and cloak with the coat of arms of the Zumerongs which was a magnificent and ferocious griffin, standing tall and proud, embroidered with threads of gold, silver and copper; the image was so life like and imposing that just a glance at the magnificent image commanded respect.Jerome’s hands passed through the items, his hands lingering on the coat of arms on the robe; something flashed past his

“Why official?” The older man’s eyes sparkled as he asked anxiously, excitement surging in his voice “Is there an unofficial version?”“Not until recently…” Matthew’s voice was gloomy but soon brightened as he thought of why there was an unofficial version now. He turned to Jerome and smirked “Guess who your nephew married?”To his disappointment, Jerome cried out in his usual exaggerated manner “Where did I get a nephew from? I am my father’s only son.” Before turning to his father and teasing “Father, you haven’t been up to mischief outside, have you?”“Is this why I was prohibited from going outside without a mask?” Jerome continued chuckling “Are you afraid that…..”“Shut up….” The older man slapped the back of Jerome’s head and muttered shaking his head “I cannot believe there are still miserable souls looking for you considering how insufferable you are….” His words and his body language were contradictory; the affection in his voice and eyes, the gratitude in his posture had co
Second chance at happiness Don’t give me attitude to cover up your incompetence…
Jerome lifted his eyebrows quizzically towards Cyan, who looked equally baffled; Neither could make sense of the duo’s ramblings and yet strangely, they could feel the regret and sadness emanating from them.“Did we know each other before?” Jerome turned back to the two sloths who were drowning in self- blame and asked cautiously.“Know???” Harry scoffed before shaking his head regretfully “No…. we don’t deserve to claim to know you… we couldn’t even find you in so many years…. How could we claim to know you?”They say men never cry and yet, streams of hot tears ran down the faces of the two men sitting before him and oddly this made his heart ache as well.The four men sat silently sipping their drinks, gloom looming in the room; no one dared to break the solemness in the room, partly because they didn’t know how to.Jerome, who was rarely short for words suddenly didn’t know what to say; he wasn’t sure if he had unknowingly hurt the two men in front of him.Matthew and Harry sunk in

“Search the whole mansion.” The man roared in anger “I want those old bastards before me in 5 minutes or I will skin you all alive.”The men, guards and servants all scattered in fear, searching frantically.Meanwhile, neither Matthew nor Harry was in a rush, they methodically searched the mansion, from one end to the other. Not only did they search all the rooms, but also the tunnels and secret rooms that not even the men in the mansion were aware of.The man stood frozen among the chaos as he heard cry of a goshawk; although the cry of a goshawk was strange in their mansion as there were no goshawks and no hunting grounds nearby to justify the sound, he seemed to be very familiar with this sound. He frowned trying to place the sound, only to have triggered a headache.“Chief are you alright?” one of the guards went forward and stretched out his hands in concern, in an attempt to steady his boss; the man slowly straightened his back and without any change or reflection of his inner t
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

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

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
