The Lady That Lived In A Shoe Novels & Stories

I wanted to feel the ground beneath me leading me to my future, leading me to my future husband and mate, the person who would love and cherish me, always. “I’m sorry, dear,” the lady rushed out quietly. I wiped the stray tear that tried taking all my little traitor emotions with it on a stroll through pity town, population: one. “It’s perfectly fine,” I smiled the best I could for her, “it’s a surprise. How about…” “These,” Corbyn watches as one of the other women swap places with the older lady in front of me and slips on the shoes he’s chosen. They’re encrusted with tiny gems, and when they slip onto my foot, it’s as if they made them just for me.

I replied and he flashed a smile in return, sat on the cushion and started untying his shoe lace, apparently in a bid to pull it off. "Should I pull mine off as well?" I asked with curiosity. "Of course, what were you thinking?" He asked with a stony solid expression. "Oh, Okay." I responded and stared down at my heels. I didn't like waking barefooted but this wasn't my place and I sure wasn't in a place to call the shots. As soon as I bent over in an attempt to unzip the first shoe, he burst out laughing and I stood up in a flash, staring at with him in confusion and genuinely wondered where the humor came from.

Two minutes later, Aiden asked "are you done?" "What are you not telling me?" Aiden sighed. "They are unfounded…" "What. Are. You. Not. Telling. Me?" "I'm coming over. I'll tell you in person." ***** Maddie pulled off her shoes and sighed in relief. Shoes were a torment. Tight, pinching shoes, hell itself. She heard somewhere that in the beginning man walked barefooted and naked, until a wimp of a man and greedy-eyed woman fell. If she got her hands on them, she was going to wrong their necks.

And she looked like she was one second away from smashing glass so I followed behind her. Right there in the hallway, this heiress-turned-rebel kicked off her heels, muttered something under her breath, and carried on barefoot like she owned the world. This woman threw her damn shoe! I had never seen a woman whose anger screamed so loudly and that heightened my curiosity because which lady in her sane mind would walk barefoot on the street.

“What is happening?!” I ran to stop them from burning but it was late. My things were already half ash, half black cloth. I turned fast to see two maids standing near the flames. One of them was holding my gold heels in her hand. I stepped closer. “What is this?! What are you doing?!” The maid holding the shoe just scoffed. “You don’t need these anymore.” “What?! Who told you to burn my things?!” Another maid walked past me and gave me a cold look. “This house belongs to Madam Zelda and her people. Not people like you.”

I already know my way to the field because Lady Delia took me there the other day. I walked past some guards, and slaves who were also rushing to the field to work. They were all barefooted, but I had an animal skin sandal on my feet. Should I put this off? I looked around, and saw a very beautiful lady. She wasn't wearing a sack dress like the other slaves, instead she was dressed in an elegant dress that looked like that of a Princess who lives in a castle.

Shelly exclaimed, her eyes shining with excitement. She was finally going to acquire those coveted Black Pearl shoes, along with the handbag she was about to receive. This time, Shelly was determined to exact her revenge on those snobbish ladies! Observing Shelly's expression, Luna couldn't help but interject, "Shelly, those shoes seem to be on the smaller side. You might not be able to wear them."

It would do no good to continue to dwell on this, as it was getting quite late, and if she were going to get a book, it would be better to go down now before she finally changed into her borrowed nightgown. Not wanting to draw any attention at this hour, she first peeked out to see that the hall was empty and then crept as quietly as she could down to the library by the light of her candle. There was still a glow from the fire to aid it in somewhat dispelling the darkness. Relieved to have successfully reached her goal without incident, she immediately crossed to the shelf th
