Chapter 5: The Pitfalls Of Being Sensible

Alain's Chambers, The Duchene Estate, Leighton, England (1762)

Nightfall saw to Alain lying in bed alone with his thoughts once more turned to the strange lass Noreen McCray. Her striking beauty clouded his judgment and made him yearn for things he had long since buried when it came to his youthful nature. Try as he might, Alain was unable to suppress his seemingly well-hidden desires for long. It had taken him years to carve out a reputation for himself that had not been overshadowed by his wayward elder brother. The stories and gossip about Casimir's love life or lack thereof a time or two were enough to warrant Alain from having similar stories about him. Sadly this produced rumors and conjecture far worse than his brother's well-noted wandering eyes.

He'd been quite reclusive, never spending time with those of his age for fear of their influence possibly corrupting his ideals. Casimir had often warned him of his lonely lifestyle

He had not expected to see the mysterious Noreen McCray a second time despite her promise to return for lessons and the like and no sooner had he set up, the lass had come from out of the flower bed a sly grin spread across her unforgettably beautiful face as she approached him."And here I was thinking I had frightened you off," she said pleased to see him return. "I did have some concerns that I might have been a bit too forward with you, but you seem to have come out of it alright.""Good day to you, Miss," replied Alain despite his less than enthusiastic demeanor about having to e

Try as he might to put her out of his mind, even for a few moments, it never seemed to work out and he found himself envisioning her all over again. Pulling back the covers and attempting to stretch did little to take his mind off his rather pleasant dreams. If he'd been honest with himself he'd have come to the conclusion that his attraction to her seemed to intensify as the days passed and that he found her presence no matter how bizarre, intriguing to say the least.As he moved about his bedchambers, Alain barely said a word as he quickly set to work making himself presentable, his parents were always fussing about his lack of par

    Chapter 8: The Pitfalls Of Youthful Impatience The Duchene Estate, Leighton, England (1762) The onset of a storm saw the plans Alain had for venturing to the hidden grove come to a disappointed end as he knew neither he nor Noreen would venture out in such atrocious weather. Despite being home for breakfast this time around, he refused to venture downstairs and mostly worked on putting a few touches on the painting of Noreen he kept hidden from everyone. His relatively obsessive manner alarmed mostly his mother as Casimir set about goading him into having sex with Noreen in a bid to get his childish longing for her out of his system. Annoyed by his brother's callous remarks toward the woman he fancied, Alain avoided him as well by staying in his bedchambers for much of the day. The creaking of the floorboards could be heard as Alain's constant pacing threatened to wear a hole in them. He was completely out of his element concerning his feelings or lack thereof, for the beauti

    Chapter 9: The Endurance Of Sustaining Unwelcome Guests The Main Hall, The Duchene Residence, Leighton, England (1762)... True to form, Alain found himself dressed up and awaiting the arrival of his dreaded cousin Cornelius Eyston, a charming and deviously handsome lad with long dark locks often in curls and a swashbuckler's beard, he was said to arrive along with his visiting younger brother Reginald Eyston, who had been just as handsome and given to having a kind heart and a humble demeanor despite his youth, and lucky best friend Reman Jasper, who had been a tall slender young man with mostly unkempt red hair and despairing brown eyes. As far as personalities go, Cornelius was always a trite little monster in Alain's humble opinion, as he terrorized him from the moment they met. From the tender age of five on up, Cornelius had made it his business to insult, tease, and assault young Alain whenever no one was looking. The boy was an absolute terror to the staff when he came ar

    Chapter 10: The Measuring Of An Acquaintance The Old Grove, Meeting Place, England (1762) Clear blue skies greeted the newly awakened Alain Remington as he pulled himself out of bed to start his morning routine. He had not stopped thinking about his encounters with the fair lass Noreen McCray. She'd been the only constant pleasant thing his days had seen in a long while even the seemingly ongoing rain did little to put a damper on his mood since his meeting her. His cousins had come into town and made themselves at home, which had been all the more of a reason for him to get out of bed before they started calling the family down to breakfast. Alain wasn't in the least interested in eating nor had he wished to endure his impish cousin's snide remarks and false sense of elegance when he could be elsewhere. It seemed Casimir had gotten the same idea and headed for the brothel before the sun came up. Alain decided to forgo his art supplies with the wetness being left behind from th

    Chapter 11: A Precursor To Manhood The Balcony, The Duchene Estate, Leighton, England (1762)... Alain Remington had had enough of Cornelius Eyston for one night and several lifetimes. The diner had been its usual boring onslaught of questions about his personal affairs, whether or not he had a love life, and the constant goading on the part of his impish cousin and well-meaning but often overbearing mother on whether or not he had met someone. His father did his best to interject on his behalf and Reginald proved to be quite the force of nature when steering one clear of unwanted conversation. Thoughts of Noreen had seemed to increase despite his best efforts to suppress them at least when in the presence of his family. Casimir was all laughs when it came to his younger brother's discomfort as he had known it all too well. It wasn't an especially good night for Alain as he stormed out of the dining hall and out toward the balcony finally fed up with attempting to endure dinne

    Chapter 12: A Risky Venture Of The Heart The Old Grove, Meeting Place, England (1762) Hazel brown eyes flickered with something akin to desire as Alain Remington found himself drawn ever so closely to his apprentice of sorts. Noreen McCray remained poised in her brushwork feeling the closeness of her body and Alain's, but she uttered not a single word. There was silence between them for quite some time as their labored breaths and her brushwork seemed to all the noise that surrounded them for a time. He had not seen it but there was a flicker of desire behind her own hypnotic dark brown eyes as she found herself subtly leaning into Alain's youthful chest as if desperate for some form of contact with him that had not been limited to his guiding her hand in brush strokes. Painting it seemed was quite an intimate activity and as such it was having a profound effect on them both. Unable to take much more of the intensifying sexually charged energy around them, it was Noreen who had

    Chapter 13: When Given To Want Alain's Bedchambers, The Duchene Estate, Leighton, England....(1762) Blaring sunlight managed to pierce through the drapes of Alain Remington's bedchambers as he found himself awakening with a bit of a late start following his overexertion the previous afternoon when he ventured to the old grove to see Noreen as per the usual. What he had not expected was the full-on whirlwind of a romance that blossomed between them to take on another measure of intrigue. Despite what occurred, he mostly kept to himself the memories of that fateful afternoon so vivid in his mind that nothing else seemed to matter in the grand scheme of things. As they parted, she had eluded to the fact that she wanted to see him again and he was more than willing to oblige her. Upon awakening, he had taken note of his fantasies becoming more based in reality when it came to Noreen and their courtship as it were. He now knew what her voice sounded like when dripping with passion,

    Chapter 61: The Finest ContentmentAlain's Bedroom, The Salt Mill Tavern, Fifth And Main, Boylesten, England (1763)... A newly awakened Alain Remington began to rouse from his most recent slumber. There had been something of a contented smile filed across his handsome face as he lay on his back with his right arm folded behind his head and his sizeable cock tenting the bedsheet that had been draped over his waist. Corelia lay beside him, her beautiful supple breasts exposed just shy of the border of the crisp white sheet as she gave off a few light snores in the wake of her well-earned and much-needed rest. A slight smile creased his pale lips as he recalled just how she had earned that rest and the subsequent efforts he'd put into making it so. The cool morning air had been welcome against the naked noble's heated skin as he turned his attention to the unyielding urge that had been a product of his bladder. He pulled back the crisp white sheet that covered both him and the slumb

Once more the sound of the thick wooden headboard beating against the nearby wall echoed throughout the tavern room as a sweat-slick Alain found himself towering above a moaning Cordelia as he had every night since the first time he'd invited her up to his room and drunkenly wooed her into his bed. Their various articles of clothing littered the floor as their bodies clashed beneath crisp white sheets in the wake of their strenuous act. Hazel eyes locked onto the emerald green as Alain found himself unable to look away from the lovely young face of the redhead peasant who had managed to fool the lot of the high society big wigs with her newly learned grace and fully fleshed out the beauty in the wake of his rather masterful tutelage when it came to the wedding of his elder brother and former lover. Cordelia's soft moans filled the mostly brooding noble's ears

    Chapter 59: The Way The Game Is Played The Duchene Estate, Leighton England (1763)... Throughout the ceremony, whispers had abounded about the mystery surrounding the elegant redhead who had entered the estate and had gotten Alain's undivided attention despite his participation in his elder brother's wedding. It had become so odd that even the bridegroom himself, Casimir Duchaine, had become consumed with wanting to know the mysterious lass' identity. Alain had been slightly amused by the badgering of questions. Still, he ignored them in a particularly carefree manner as he sought to give the bulk of his attention to the newly arrived lady as his parents stood in shock at how devoted he seemed to have been to her. Casimir glanced at the beautiful elegant young woman and then at Alain and at last thought he had known just who she had been. Of course, his keen mind had put the pieces together and of course, Alain would be of the mind to keep it a secret, she'd been his lady afte

Both Alain and Casimir arrived in good time from the brothel despite Alana Duchaine being mortified when she realized where her elder son had been and where her precious younger son Alain had to retrieve him. Alain had been quite amused as he moved through the crowd making his way to the servants carrying champagne and he watched from afar as everyone scrambled to get ready for the upcoming nuptials. He'd taken a moment to clear his head after heading upstairs in a bid to avoid a bombardment of unwanted questions from women still auctioning off their unwed daughters and found that the room that one of the guest rooms had been occupied by none other than Noreen McCrayson herself. She had been quite a lovely sight, sitting before the vanity in the room and appearing to compose herself as she awaited news of Casimir's arrival and the impending wedding that was to change both of their lives forever.

The sound of the thick wooden framed headboard beating against the nearby elegant wall to the point of tearing at the paper echoed through the frequented favorite tavern room of none other than Casimir DuChaine as he found himself given to a rabid series of thrusts into the tight orifice of the rather cute pale blond lad that caught his eye in the wake of his drunken binge and subsequent issue with the knowledge that he was to be married in a few hours. He had been accustomed to having many bedmates in his time since his very first sexual encounter and had not planned to give up such freedom despite being in an arranged marriage. He had amended his dalliances to only good-looking young men mostly servants too ashamed to run off at the mouth about their exploits and ended his frequent trips to brothels, but that was as far as he was willing to go. Casimir had been e

    Chapter 56: Keeping Up AppearancesThe Duchene Estate, Leighton England (1763)... Sir Alfred Remington had been pacing quite a bit as he attempted to sift through the crowds of people well-dressed and pleased to be in attendance at the former Governor's eldest son's wedding. Casimir had quite a reputation and news of his impending nuptials and the fact that he'd been looking forward to them gave everyone pause when it came to wanting to know just who the bride had been that had garnered the attention of such an affluent and carefree young man to the point of making him want to settle down like anyone else. It was a rare thing to note that Alfred's problem child had not at all been Casimir, who was as nervous as can be about his wedding, even more so when he had not seen neither hide nor hair of his baby brother following their less than ideal run-in before the younger lad took off for parts unknown and stayed g

    Chapter 55: Desire's Unseemly TricksAlain's Bedroom, The Salt Mill Tavern, Fifth And Main, Boylesten, England (1763)... Alain Remington had not said a word as his ever-changing hazel eyes took note of how hard the redhead peasant girl seemed to have been focusing on his latest round of lessons. They had a mere few days left before the wedding and he'd been quite deadset on presenting her as a proper lady before the very eyes of everyone in attendance. For the most part, Alain had been having a rather difficult time getting a few aspects of practice through her mind and the occasional slip-ups had been most concerning but he knew she'd been eager to please him and looking forward to going to the wedding as his guest so she practiced night and day even after working hours to get everything just right. The rather silent handsome noble watched her intently, making her rather nervous despite her confidence that she could make a lasting impression. It had taken some doing, but Cordelia

    Chapter 54: An Awful Terrible Idea Alain's Bedroom, The Salt Mill Tavern, Fifth And Main, Boylesten, England (1763)... As the storm raged outside the tavern and pelted the dirty cobblestone streets with a good deal of flooding, Alain Remington had glared rather silently at his painting, the latest in his collection of masterpieces despite his resident bitterness in the way his life had turned out when the promise of love and happiness had become but a bitter memory of betrayal of the highest fashion. Alain had not been alone in his room despite his apparent tendency to sulk as his hazel eyes once more trailed toward the nearly finished and quite fetching portrait that hugged the easel as he stood before it, still naked from head to toe and his breath reeking of every manner of ale from the tavern below. It had been quite the match to the slumbering redhead peasant girl having a bit of a lie in due to the weather and their earlier exploits between his formerly crisp sheets. Slowl

A rolling storm had been of no consequence to the two young lovers coupled inside the room at The Salt Mill Tavern, on Fifth and Main. The noises within had been thankfully drowned out by the crackle of thunder and the flashes of lightning had been of no issue to two people who needed only their bodies enmeshed to adhere to their most basic of carnal needs. The frequent moans that escaped the pinked lips of the young redhead peasant filled the room as the occasional grunts and groaning from the handsome young noble lad hard at work drilling his impressive appendage inside the tight depths of the redhead peasant girl as they jolted along his bed echoed as well.Alain Remington had not had his fill of the redhead just yet as he continued to pump his hips between her thighs hissing regarding her involuntary clenching of his cock as he thrust harder and deeper than before
