To say that the deal was both a success and yet a disaster is something that you may not hear anywhere at all, it is somewhat fictional and surreal— something that we are certain to not happen. Something that we are sure to only exist in our imaginations…… However, here I am, staring into the open space of my garden, still shocked at what happened just this early afternoon— during lunch to be exact. During my talk with Marcus Timothy Zoldago. The conversation was rather, in bliss, as if it just went past my ears and my brain like the wind with the trees. It may make the leaves sway in its motion but, there’s no drastic effect or whatsoever. “Still shocked?” asked the newly arrived Drew. I uttered a small, “Yeah.” as a reply. I was sitting at my usual spot, the mini round of roses behind me as I viewed the whole garden in front of me. Drew sat at my l

Duchess 12 When I say that the conversation was a bliss, it was really a bliss, believe me. It was like there was no conversation at all. More of like, there was an exchange of pleasantries and then he just agreed with me and then left. It happened so fast that I was rendered speechless and unmoving when Urial and Drew joined me for tea in the estate garden. Aside from that, he looked down upon me, like I was much more lower than him when I am the Duchess and he is a successful businessman. Well, if we were back on Earth, a Duchess and a very successful businessman would be considered much of the same but, we are in the Kingdom of Sagareste right now, where nobility is much more important and looked up on than a successful

Duchess 13 Another morning, another day to start and be productive. “Good morning Frielle. You woke up to the right of the bed today, this is a perfect way to start the day and be productive.” I said with a happy and a cheery tone while also taking a simple stretch with my hands. Emitting a groan— a good one— I then began the day by getting out of my bed and opening the window of my room. The cool breeze of the fresh morning air started blowing inside, making the curtains flow. It was still very early, the sky was still painted in yellow and orange hues and the clouds were having an ethereal appeal to them as the sun barely shines on them, there was a little sound coming from the animals, even the birds are not fully awake yet. But still, everything is

Duchess 14 The sun was up in the sky and most of the animals are now awake and are creating a symphony of their sounds outside of the manor. Some of the birds even flew inside my office as I conversed with the prospective new Chief of the Guillemore Village together with the current Chief. “I really do need to applaud your excellent eyes Chief, this candidate that you picked really is promising, and he was taught the necessary skills of leading a village— by you at that.” I said, praising the current Chief by the way of how he chose the next chief of the village. It was nearing lunch and they had seeked an audience with me as to inform me and to officially transfer the title of 'Chief’ to Mephis— the boy— or man rather, that is together with the old chief.

DUCHESS 15 The clips and clops of the horse’s shoes were so loud that it was the only thing I could hear as of the moment. Still near the woodlands, and yet at the edge of the capital of the dukedom, Marcus and I inspected a lot that was possible to be turned into a workshop. The lot was big enough— the size of a single farm plot— with some wild grass growing in it. The lot was surrounded by a wooden fence that looked to be old due to some holes and mite-eaten parts, and some cracked and broken plank pieces. If I were to pick this, it would need a lot of repairs, and some weeding to work with. Then also the building of the workshop itself, it would definitely take time even though the workshop itself will be small. “This is one of my chosen places. It w

DUCHESS 16 The Kingdom of Sagareste has a few of its laws different to those other kingdoms. aside from the fact that the Kingdom of Sagareste were not limiting to its citizens, they were also allowing its citizens to own their own piece of land— the citizens can own a land through inheritance or by buying it to the original owner, but if the land was already a property of the Royal Family, then it cannot be bought as it will be dedicated for the use of the general public. Each of the land owned has a corresponding title of the land or a certificate to the right of the land in which the owner owns or possesses. The said document also has a copy in the dukedom’s hall and all have a copy in the palace library of official documents— though it will be a long search if one were to go to the palace library of official documents. If they needed to get a copy of the land title, one must need to go to the dukedom’s Great Hall and ask for one. Although the process would take at least a whole

DUCHESS 17 “My decisions made for today were in consideration of all the stakeholders in this. In consideration of you, Octavia and me. I also considered the few opssible situation and angles in making those decisions.” Marcus said and I raised a brow at his statement. I heard him alright but the way he said those thins made him look like an old wise wizard in my eyes. “This will be a long talk, shall we have a cup of tea then?” I offered to Marcus as he said a few words. He nodded in agreement and followed me to my office. Once there, I asked Nikos to bring us a cup of Chamomile tea and while we waited, Marcus continued what he was saying. “As I have said earlier, you still have a lot to learn when it comes to starting and maintaining a business. The first lesson was connecting with the other party— connecting— in the means that you are forming a strong bond with them with just a short time. It is best done with agreeing with them or as for the situation that we are in,

DUCHESS 18 Another day, another day where I get to live as the Duchess of the Fortess Dukedom and a cousin of the Crown Prince, another day where I have to think of a way to solve the problems left by my tyrant of a grandfather. Nonetheless, the scenery and nature sure takes all of the stress away even for just a little bit of time. Even though as a journalist, I was rarely able to bond with nature as most of my interviews and articles were done with the focus on a person. And even if I get to be with mother nature, it was always for a short time and I was too focused on my work to even be able to appreciate the scenery that the nature offers. ‘Well, at least now I have all the time to myself to be able to appreciate the beauty that mother nature presents to me.’ I thought to myself as I got up from my bed and walked to the big window inside my room. Opening it was the best thing that I could do for today. With a flick of my hands, I opened the window and welcomed the refreshing br

DUCHESS 19 Nikos bowed his head as he uttered his presence and greeted me good morning before walking in, “Good Morning, Milady. Did you have a good night's rest?” he asked as he pushed the trolley into the room and closed the doors behind him. Showing him a small smile, I walked back to the table that was beside the big window of my room and waited for Nikos to serve my breakfast for the day. “Yes, it was a nice rest. Although a dreamless slumber, but still a nice one.” I responded. This made the butler smile a bit wider than his usual one and then he removed the cover of the food and my tea. “That is good to hear, Milady.” He then served my breakfast: a light omelette with some green peas on the side and a slice of peaches as the dessert. For the tea, it was a Blue Butterfly Pea tea infused with honey. But there is one thing unusual about the tea. It is not piping hot at all. “Why is there an ice in the tea? Did the chef experiment again?” look

DUCHESS 20 Why are there so many unusual things that are happening today? Did I do something? Did I offend some kind of deity or a god to deserve all of these things that are not in my schedule or on the usual things that are happening to me? But no matter, I will handle it and internalize it all after I settle the business with the Duke of Leviathan--- Duke Ruther. As I was doing a little narrative here, inside my head, he was busy telling stories while his stomach bellowed with laughter--- his shoulders shaking at the same time. “Oh I still remember that time when you would always hide behind your mother whenever I visit. Apparently, my stature was too intimidating to you back then that you would cower in fear whenever I visited your grandfather for a drink or maybe a business.” Duke Ruther said to me and Drew, his eyes reflecting that happiness and nostalgia before settling in the feeling of ‘missing someone’ and it is very evident in his eyes. As a response, I let out a little g
