When There Is Magic Chapter Thirteen
Annalise had known as soon as she had seen Beatrice walking in front of Lucia and another maid that something was up. Her decision to follow them and eavesdrop on their conversation had been a quick one. On the way, she had been intercepted by Issac who had tried to make small talk with her. She had tried not to let her impatience show but he was talking too much that she had to make a quick decision. She'd had to excuse herself from him. Annalise did not even give him a moment to respond before she had hurried away to the direction of Alexander's chamber. I shall stay there one day, she promised herself. Annalise went to her own chamber to think about a way that she could present the information she had just learnt to Alexander and he would have no choice but to believe her without doubt. Back in the Marquess's chamber, Lucia was talking. "Lady Beatrice, now that I have heard your tale, I feel alright. I am not sick anymore. I am pleased that I did not destroy the union between you

Alexander was livid. His face was contorted with anger he had never felt before as he looked at Annalise. How dare this scheming girl take advantage of Beatrice and her situation? He had to give her a stern warning now not to speak of it to anyone else. "What is wrong with you? You are just spewing a load of garbage from your mouth in broad daylight. You must be out of your senses to even think of such a thing. Perhaps, you have begun to lose your mental functions. Do not speak of this untruth ever again. I do not want to hear it from your lips and if I hear it from anyone else, you will only have yourself to blame. Who would even believe you? What you have spewed forth from your mouth is nothing but nonsense and only a fool like yourself would certainly believe you," Alexander seethed, determined to protect Beatrice at all costs. Annalise remained adamant. "My Lord, I am certain of this. I heard it from her own mouth. That woman is an imposter in this keep and she needs to be sent

Beatrice took in a deep breath. She had not planned to tell Alexander about Annalise's bad act so soon. She had not wanted him to see her in a bad light but now that she had not stopped at her first attempt at perpertrating evil, perhaps it was time to expose her. Seeing that she was taking too much time to respond to his question, Alexander repeated it again. "Beatrice, what did that fool do the first time?" he asked, trying to quelch his anger. "The white dress I wanted to wear for the ball, it was Annalise that suggested it, only she did not tell me directly. She prodded Lucia to suggest it to me. I agreed and after Lucia saw you get angry about the dress on the night of the ball, the next day, she also overheard Annalise hallucinating about her failed plan when I did not put on the dress for the ball. According to Lucia, Annalise said she had heard about the tragic history you have with the main owner of the dress and she wanted you to disgrace me in front of everyone when you g

Beatrice was stunned beyond words. She had expected only a cruel remark from Sarah but the one she gave was not cruel. It was shocking in its simplicity. Sarah was really observant but Beatrice knew that she had to play it out masterfully."What a silly observation you have made, Sarah! My eyes are lighter in colour and they are brighter because of joy, the joy of love and my cheeks are rosier because because of these past weeks spent in Alexander's arms and heart. You said I look different. Yes, I do and it is because of the love and care that Alexander has been showing me. After my fall down the stairs, it was as if we fell in love all over again and everything has been blissful between us since then.""What a detailed explanation you have given me simply because I said you look different. I was just stating my observations. Is it a crime to do so?" Sarah asked. "Of course, it is not," Beatrice answered. "Let me confirm my observations from Suzanne and Joshua. Tell me, have the tw

The meal they were served was delicious and filling. There was roasted pork filled with greens and carrots. There was also apple pie and apple cider. At the end of the meal, a sweet wine made from blackcurrants was brought to the table and everyone marveled at the taste of it. It was different from any other wine they had ever drank. The taste was sharp as it was sweet. The cooks had been experimenting with different types of wine making recipes when they had decided to try this one out and it had turned out a very sweet wine which was to the liking of everybody. Everyone had made small talk as they ate the food on their plates. Suzanne had talked about the state of everyone in Chester and Beatrice had also supplied information about Ludlow and its people. Alexander and Isaac had gotten into a debate about the profits and losses of farming and Victoria and Joshua had compared the prizes of some basic things in each other's town. Annalise had also given her opinion on some t
When There Is Magic Chapter Eighteen
A week after Suzanne and the others left, Beatrice was still missing Suzanne in her heart. She had known Suzanne only for a few days but she had connected with her beyond how she had ever done with any female before. She was looking forward to when Suzanne would come to visit her again. She wanted more of the times they had shared when Suzanne had been here.As for going to visit her family in Chester, that was another problem on its own. They would expect her to know the places and recognize the people and if she did not, they would become suspicious of her especially Sarah with her watchful eyes like that of a hawk. Since she wanted to raise no suspicions, all she could do was to remain here and wait for them to visit. She would have to come up with an excuse anytime they wanted her to visit them in Chester.Alexander had understood her sad aura following the departure of her siblings from Ludlow. He had understood that she had seen in Suzanne what she had never seen in anyone else
When There Is Magic Chapter Nineteen
Beatrice woke up on the bed in her chamber feeling disoriented. She felt numb and her mind was blank. Her whole body felt to her as if it was on fire. Heat seeped from the pores in her skin. Even her whole body felt like a dead weight and she could lift her hands and legs only a few inches.She tried to think back to what had happened at the lake with Nomar but nothing came up in her mind. She and Nomar had gone to the bottom of the lake for the training session. She also remembered that her breathing had become shallow and she had begun to feel faint. As the memories of her last time at the lake came back now, the last thing she remembered of it was when Nomar carried her to the surface of the water, set her down on the ground near the lake and pulled on her clothes before the darkness descended on her. Beatrice wondered why she had collapsed and fainted. Nomar had said magic took energy away from someone but not to the extent of this. She questioned herself more and more but she co

Nomar was feeling as dejected as he could be. He had never been spoke to like that in his entire period of existence. He should not have been spoken to like that because of the power he had but he chose to let it go because everything had been his fault. He should have put Beatrice first but now it was too late. Everything had crashed now and there was nothing he could do to salvage it. There was no way he could convince Beatrice to continue with the mission after what she had lost because of it or rather because of him. She did not even want to see him or talk to him again. Now his own mission would fall too and the consequences would be dire.The King of fairies had assigned him the mission to train Beatrice in the ways of magic after she had been successfully brought here from the twenty first century and now he had failed to do so. The fairy king had stressed the importance of the mission to him and Nomar had pledged to make sure it was fulfilled. Now he had failed and he would h
