View MoreChapter 11: Rose had some pondering to do as Sean and her rode back to the estate. Mr. Edwards promised to contact her once he does some research of his own. Now that he has the Queen’s blessing - albeit very quietly- he can access some items and areas that he wouldn’t normally have the resources for. This obviously was exciting for Rose as she looked forward to learning who may want to hurt her father. She grasped the edge of the seat cushion in the carriage till her knuckles turned white, pondering who could wish him ill will; what type of scoundrel would want to hurt a kind old man such as Lord Duncaster?! Rose had heard of men developing a hunger for revenge or justice, she was starting to understand how a person could be driven in order to protect their loved ones. If one thing was for certain, Rose would not let anything happen! Not while she drew breath. And so, Rose worked to develop a plan, one that needed careful
Chapter 10: Just off Main Street, sits a shabby little row of shops, all with some hand carved sign telling their wares… at the far end is the apothecary store, dark, with the sign hanging askew, some broken windows, and curtain’s torn. Clearly the townsfolk had seen to their own judgements. Rose let Sean lead them into the store, stepping over broken glass while clutching that damn voodoo doll in her bag. “Watch yer step, da nerve of people…. Ya tink ya knew yer neighbor! Guess not.” Says Mr. Edwards himself, shaking his head in dismay. Looking up, you’d think he saw a ghost. “Ack no! You’ve caused me enough grief with that damnable cursed doll!” He exclaimed, while pointing to Rose. She stopped advancing towards him. Okay, what did they say about approaching a scared animal? Don’t corner it… check, talk calmly and show no fear…. “Mr. Edwards”, started Rose…. “You must know by now that your previous rendezvous was the one who created your current circumstances, not
Chapter 9 Sean watched Rose deal with each shopkeep, owner and staff at all 6 of the 7 places on her little list. If he hadn’t already been bedazzled by her, he would have after today. Rose stood up to the short, elderly gentleman that owned the shop containing the food containers, cutlery and linens she had ordered. When he suggested that Sean should be the contact for the account instead of putting too much stress on a poor delicate flower such as her… Sean thought she’d box his ears for sure. He wasn’t disappointed! That “delicate flower” went up one side of him and down the other, ha! She had him asking whether he should sit or stand by the conclusion of the visit. He was so apologetic, she got a bunch of beeswax candles thrown on top of the order no charge. Rose was ecstatic as they left that she checked an extra stop off the list! The upholsterer was friendly, and had some items done already from yesterday. They assured Rose and Sean that it would be loaded on the carriage by
Chapter 8: I writhed against him and he just “tsked” me! Like I was a disobedient child… well that was like a bucket of cold water on my desires. Rose tried to push him away and put some space between them but Sean misunderstood and thought she wanted to go to the bed… as he swung around and dropped them to her bed, she rolled away as fast as she could. Sean sat looking at her like a crazed banshee had just leapt off the bed, “I’m sorry if I was too forward Rose, I thought you had made up your mind about wanting me with the way you greeted me this morning.” Sean sighed as he ran his one hand through his ruddy locks as he leaned on the bedding. “Maybe we should take things slowly” he continued. Rose had a doe eyed startled look on her face because she had no idea what was going to happen.
