Chapter 83

When they traveled to Knocklean to watch the castle being destroyed, they stopped at the cliff where they married. Catherine suggested that they renew their vows, and they happily agreed. It had been 30 years since they married the first time, and they were still as in love as they had been that day.They spent the night in the same clearing they had for their honeymoon. They made love loud enough to embarrass their companions, but they didn't seem to care. Some of the younger men were impressed that they could still make each other scream like that after 30 years of marriage. Grayson woke up the next morning and smiled at his sleeping wife, again naked under a blanket in the same clearing as 30 years ago. She was still as beautiful, her curls still wild, her body still gorgeous. He had never and would never love another. Abigail opened her eyes that morning, and it was like she'd been transported back in time. Her husband had aged well, keeping the kindness in his eyes that she lov

Chapter 85

The loss of Grayson was a huge blow to his family. Samuel and Olivia were preparing to take the throne upon the death of their aunt Catherine. Catherine was ailing, and the news of Grayson’s death made her condition worse. Their aunt Rose passed away a year ago, never quite recovering from the death of her beloved sister. Catherine fell ill when Rose died and was now the last of their group of friends. She did not handle the news well. She made sure Grayson was given a funeral befitting his rank and managed to be his chief mourner before succumbing to her own illness a week later. The last of the generation of heroes had gone to her eternal rest at age 89. Samuel and Olivia’s rule was also prosperous. They had inherented Alderei at the height of its existence and continued the projects and promises brought about by their aunts. Their brother, Theodore, was their most trusted ambassador and brokered peace with nations across the seas. The land of Knocklean had been absorbed by t

Chapter 86

Charlotte Much has been said about my parents and their love story. All of it is true. They were ridiculously and madly in love until the day they died. Knowing them, they are probably still ridiculously and madly in love in death. They were wonderful role models for how to properly treat someone you love. They teased each other gently, and my father often tickled my mother when he felt she was getting too serious or worked up. They laughed a lot, and they kissed a lot, and they hugged a lot. They treated each other with respect even when they didn't agree, which was not often. They spread that unconditional love to their children - all six of us. Seven, if you count Sawyer, which I know they always did. I still care for Sawyer's memorial. We all know the story of how and why Sawyer died. Most of us were alive - though small - when it happened. My oldest brother and sister remember Mama coming home that day, riding with Papa on his horse, looking confused. Papa said then that she

Chapter 87

Calista Who do I miss the most? Outside of the obvious answer of my mother, father, and grandfather, I would say I miss Uncle Aryk the most. He was the one who helped me control my powers. My father was ridiculously powerful but also hated fighting almost as much as he hated leaving Odel and later Lydisia. He always said his only goal in life was to love our mother and his children with his whole heart. Honestly, his power was wasted on him. Yes, when he was needed, he would come and fight, and he was always checking on the wards he put over Alderei as a whole, but mostly, he was a hermit. He hated being apart from Mama. He always said they had spent enough time apart when they were younger. Uncle Aryk was a traveler, an adventurer, and a spy for Alderei when needed. Queen Sarah and later Auntie Cat would send him on missions. When I got older, he would take me along with him like Pappy Arthur would take us on diplomatic missions. I LOVED going on spy missions. Mama would sometimes

Chapter 88

OliviaRuling a kingdom with your slightly older twin brother is a pain in the cracks. Not that I don't love Sammy. I do. Just... sometimes, I would love him more if there was a country or two between us.Our aunts Catherine and Rosie left us the kingdom of Alderei because they didn't want to choose one of us over the other since we are literally three minutes apart in age. It was a good decision. I applaud them for not just choosing Sammy because he was older or me because I'm a girl (and obviously smarter).The good thing about two aunts is they have no problem when you discover you like girls as a girl. Not that my parents had any issues with it. No one did. But I could go to my aunts for advice that no one else could answer. Like how to hit on the beautiful woman who came to visit as a part of a foreign delegation.That's how I met Grace. She was visiting Alderei with her family as a part of a treaty signing. I pursued her so diligently that it made my father's efforts to win over

Chapter 89

Benjamin Now that my sisters have all had their turn, I suppose it's my turn to praise my parents. I'm not going to do that.As the youngest son, all my life, I was expecting to get the short end of the stick. By the time Calista and I came around, there was nothing left to leave us. Sam and Liv got all of Alderei. Teddy was to get Lydisia. Lottie got Odel. Even Calista married a man with an estate, so she has something to leave her children. I never even had children. No one wants to marry a man with nothing. So I stayed with my parents. I suppose I could have gone off adventuring like Teddy or become a spy like Calista. I'm sure I could have settled for a low born wife and had a million children like Lottie. I chose to stay, though, I couldn't tell you why.It made my mother happy. She was sad as each child grew up and went off on their own. She missed the others. She never had to miss me. She got to continue to baby her baby.Sigh. I guess they weren't that bad. They did end up

Chapter 91

Theodore Saving the best for last, I see? You want to know about my parents? They were wonderful people. They loved us with all they had, they loved our children with all they had, and they somehow managed to love each other even more than that. One of my earliest memories is watching my father walk up behind my mother and wrap his arms around her. She immediately stopped what she was doing - I think she was mending something - and turned to kiss him. The look she gave him afterward was so absolutely full of love that her face is the only place I've ever seen a look like it. My father always looked at her with a mixture of love and desire. She usually had that second one, too, but sometimes it was just pure love. Oh, the effect she had on my father! She could get that man to do anything with just a look. I didn't understand it until I fell in love myself. My wide, Kadija, has the same effect on me. She is so beautiful... I'm so lucky to have her. I think that was the key to

Chapter 92

Abigail From the diaries of Abigail Coursar: One day, I hope someone finds these diaries and reads all about my life and finds inspiration in my stories. I'm not a hero, and I don't want to be, but I've tried all my life to be a good example for my people and my family. I became a Duchess at 16, after the horrible, horrible, unfair death of my mother. I was angry with the gods for quite some time after her death. My mother was wonderful and it was not fair to take her from us. My father never fully recovered. As you can probably tell, I never really have either.Thankfully, my sister survived the illness that took our mother. I would not have survived losing Rose, as well. Losing my best friend, my mother, and my sister in the span of two years would have been too much. Rose is my baby, despite only being less than two years younger than me. I've always mothered her, to an extent. She's always been my closest companion and the one person I could always trust. Rose has never failed
