"Why did he change so much? It's barely been a day. And he's letting me see Nox? No way can that be Dad."Yvette was still looking at her husband. "Beats me."Suddenly, Queenie smiled. "It doesn't matter. This works for me."Yvette sighed. She had a lot on her mind, but she said nothing.…Ever since the ordeal at Dragoncourt, George had become a different person. He used to lord everyone around the house and did nothing but eat and read. Now, he was soft-spoken and even took up chores around the house.Yvette thought her husband's days were numbered. He was obviously going mad. After a few days, the terror finally got the best of her.Queenie had just started exercising when Yvette pulled her aside. "I think your dad's cursed, Queenie. He's doing the dishes. He's never done that before!"Queenie was dressed in a pink sport attire that accentuated the curves. She looked into the kitchen and saw her dad doing the dishes. "I think it's a good thing, Mom." She smiled."It's a cur

"Not much. Just telling your father to stay safe. Wasn't I, Mr. Sanders?" Nox gave George a look."Yes, of course. Nox is right," George answered quickly."What did you just call Nono?" Queenie's eyes went wide with confusion.Yvette, too, wondered why George called Nox by his first name. He never used to do that. Why was he so courteous today?"His name. Why?" George couldn't call Nox 'milord,' so he went with his first name."Something's wrong. You used to talk down to him. Have you really come around?" Queenie was buzzing with excitement."Tosh. I've never talked down to the l—I mean Nox. I told you. It's all a big misunderstanding, and I'm sorry for my ignorance. I swear you can date him now, Queenie. Don't worry." George sounded genuine. He would get on his knees and beg if needed.Queenie couldn't be more elated. She asked Nox over to see if George had really changed, and he had. "Did you hear that? Dad said we can date!" A happy Queenie clasped Nox's hand.Nox was smilin

George came back a moment later with his prized alcohol. Seeing this, Queenie's eyes went wide with surprise. "Dad, that's the best booze you have.""Obviously. I'm drinking with Nox, you see." George poured a cup of wine each for Nox and himself. His hands were shaking, but he raised a toast. "To you."Nox picked up his cup. "Bottoms up."They finished their first cup, and the second followed quickly. Soon enough, the wine was finished. George took a couple more bottles from his collection.He treasured these dearly. They would fetch a handsome price if sold, but now he was sharing it with Nox without batting an eye.George was a decent drinker, but Nox was a much better drinker than he thought. Moments later, George was drunk, and he started apologizing again.The old man eventually started bawling like a baby. Queenie stepped in. "Dad, why are you crying? You're drunk.""No, I am not! And I have a lot of things to tell you! Queenie, I'm sorry. I failed you as a father. Please

"We'll never be apart." Queenie planted a kiss on Nox's cheek.Nox's heart melted. He wanted to tell her of his past glory, but she didn't care if he was a king or a beggar. Nox gazed at Queenie with love and pulled her into a tight embrace all of a sudden. "I love you, Queenie. Will you marry me?"Queenie was dumbfounded. She stared at Nox with widened eyes. "I-Is that a proposal?"Nox nodded. "Yes. Will you marry me?"Queenie had never thought about marriage, not even arranged ones, like the one with Silas. She was stunned that Nox would bring it up. Queenie stared at Nox dumbly. She was at a loss for words.Nox asked, "Is that a no?"Queenie shook her head quickly. "We're moving a bit too fast, don't you think? Marriage… it's… well…""What does it matter if we're in love? Besides, your father gave us his blessings," Nox said.Queenie fell silent again.Seeing that, Nox said, "It's okay, even if it's a no.""Wait." Queenie held Nox's hand. "Give me some time, Nono. This i

A frown furrowed Queenie's forehead. 'Right, Dad. God knows what he's thinking. He never liked Nox until a couple of days ago. If he finds out we're getting married, he might go ballistic. Heck, he might not be friendly anymore.'George popped out all of a sudden. "You're going to marry him, Queenie. One way or another!"Queenie and Yvette swiveled their heads. George's appearance caught them by surprise. He still smelled like booze, but his eyes were gleaming with joy and excitement."George? I thought you got blackout drunk," said Yvette.George went to sleep early because of how much he drank, but he stirred when Queenie knocked on the door.At first, George was groggy, but he sobered up the moment Queenie mentioned Nox. And then she brought up the proposal. George almost flew with ecstasy. 'Gods. Queenie marrying Nox? It's an honor for the family!'Though he had no idea who Nox really was, the fact that Alexander, William, and the leaders of Riverton bowed to him meant Nox wa
