Dimensions and Revenge: Chapter 8 Secret Revealed; Another Mystery
"Excuse me sir, how much is your bread?"
"It is 20 pence."
Issac got 20 pence out of his purse then continued on towards London. He has rode for 2 days now, but still no sign of Kagome. His heart began to hurt.
He arrived at Lady Alexandra's Mansion. He road up towards the stables and gave them his chestnut colt. He met Lady Alexandra once and wished it was his last.
***Flashback***
"Young Master Issac, where are ye hiding?"
Issac tried to hold his breath so not to make a noise, but a cat happened to walk where he was hiding. Lady Alexandra picked up the noise to her right. She peeked into the horse carriage parking and saw him hiding behind a carriage. Lady Alexandra was acting non-ladylike, plus she had some brandy when her guardian wasn't looking.
"Please, m' lady, you are drunk and nay acting like ye-self!"
Lady Alexandra didn't care what she was doing. She nailed him to the ground, a piece of her hair fell out of place. `That's it' thought Issac.
"M'lady you may do as ye wish, but I don't like a messy lady."
Lady Alexandra took the hint and got up off the floor. She pulled out a mirror to fix herself up. While she was doing this, Issac ran the opposite direction to get her guardian and cousin the Earl of Yorkshire. When he finally found his master he told him everything. The Earls face lit with horror, but yet in amusement. Issac took his master to his cousin. Lady Alexandra didn't even notice that Issac went anywhere.
"M'lady, I …"
" Oh Issac, I …I love you!"
As she said this she turned around then regretted it just after she said it. Her cousin was surprised. Then an idea popped in his head.
"My dear cousin Alexandra, since I'm your guardian, you shall be betrothed to Issac, but you won't see him until a year has passed. When Princess Mary needs you as a lady in waiting. If you still love Issac and found no other person then you two shall be wed a fortnight from them."
Lady Alexandra was so pleased. She agreed to the terms and then left them. Issac turned to his master.
"Don't worry Issac. She is full of brandy she will nay remember you or the arrangement."
" I hope so, sir."
As the Earl was walking back to the party he thought to himself ` I hope so to Issac. Living with her, will be a nightmare! But you two would be the greatest couple in history, well at least in London'.
*** End flashback***
Issac went to the front door and knocked on the door. When the door opened, Issac was expecting the butler, but Lady Alexandra answered the door instead.
"Hello. May I help you," asked Lady Alexandra with her golden hair in a bun and wearing a midnight sapphire dress, which had a very revealing neckline.
"Are ye the lady of this house," asked Issac out of common courtesy.
"Yes, I am," replied Lady Alexandra.
" I come to deliver a message form your cousin the Earl of Yorkshire."
He handed his letter to Lady Alexandra and started to leave when she called to him.
"Would you please come in for some tea and biscuits?"
"I'm sorry, but I have to decline your generous offer, for now," he said and started for the stables.
" Thank you, sir for delivering my letter. May I say you look so familiar to me, like we were lover's once."
Issac froze right where he was and started to say to himself `Please don't remember! Please don't remember! Then he turned to her and told her something.
"I'm sorry m'lady, but we were never lovers. A woman of your status could never sink lower than yourself."
Then he started to walk at a faster pace. Where she close the doors he dashed to the stables to retrieve his colt and ride from Lady Alexandra's mansion as fast as he could.
Meanwhile back in the mansion Lady Alexandra was reading her cousins' letter.
Dear Cousin Alexandra,
It is with my great honor that you will help her highness, Princess Mary, as a lady in waiting. Also, the young gentleman I sent this with this message you met once before. Send a letter to me if the answer is yes and I'll start the arrangements.
Sincerely
Your cousin,
Earl of Yorkshire
`What does my cousin mean `I'll start the arrangements, if the answer is yes?'"
She started to walk up stairs she walked passed a portrait that her cousin sent her a year ago. With a young man with silver hair and amber eyes like you haven't seen before. She stopped right in her tracks and turned around and went to stand in front of that portrait. Then it dawned on her who the young man was.
"Now, I remember. Sara! Sara where are you," yelled Lady Alexandra running through the mansion.
"Yes, m'lady? What can I do?"
"Go find my brother Alexander. Please tell him this is important. Now go hurry," directed Lady Alexandra to herself. She went into the study and started to write to her cousin.
Dear Cousin,
It took me a while to figure it out, and Issac left before I could remember. So, I remember perfectly so you may start the arrangements.
Sincerely,
Your cousin,
Lady Alexandra
She sent the message with her fastest messenger. Then she went to read in the living room in front of the small fire. Then her brother walked in and he was short of breath. Alexandra could tell her brother galloped and ran to the house to get the important news from his sister.
"What…is it the im…important news, dear sister? Did our father die in battle or murdered," ask her brother, Alexander, who had emerald eyes and midnight hair that was stuck to his face from his sweat.
"No, don't say such horrible things about our father. I've got a letter form our cousin the Earl of Yorkshire, that the Princess would like me to be her lady in waiting."
Alexander just stared at her in disbelief. He snapped his fingers and a butler brought hi m a towel. Alexander sat down on the couch that their mother got from her visit to France.
Which was hardly used unless important people came to visit, but their mother was with the Queen as an attendant. So they used the room a lot.
He was still looking at his sister in disbelief.
"You…you called me here to…to just tell me that! That is not important! I could still be out there hunting and …"
"Quiet yourself dear brother. That is not important. Earl of Yorkshire is making preparations for my marriage that was arranged a year ago."
Alexander's jaw dropped to the ground. He was in shock that his baby sister never told him about the engagement.
Meanwhile, Issac was speeding along the countryside to get far away from Lady Alexandra as possible. He reached down town of London. He decided he would spend a day or 2 to look for Kagome. He found an inn located by West Minister Abby. When he got to his room and settled he ordered for his dinner to be brought to his room. Also, he called for a messenger to send a message to the Earl. After Issac had his full he went to rest before his long search began. All he could think about was her.
Katherine, aback at Clockmart Mansion, was waking up from her 2-day fainting spell. When she opened up her eyes she was confused. She didn't know where she was. She tried to stand up, but got dizzy. She also felt a breeze against her skin. She looked down at herself and saw that she was naked. Katherine reached for the covers, but just as she was about to cover her chest, there was a hand grabbing the sheet making it impossible to cover herself.
"My dear Katherine, don't cover up your beautiful silky skin," stated a familiar voice in a seductive tone.
Katherine looked up to see who the culprit was. Her eyes widened and she started to lose color in her cheeks. The fear was very presentable on her face.
"Wha…what are…you doing her…here," asked Katherine trying to grab a pillow to cover herself up.
He pounced on her before she could grab one. She could feel his breath on her neck and his muscular body on top of her body. His groin was rubbing along her pelvic region and between her legs. He started to move his whole body on her. His hand contracted on her well ripe breast. Then replaced his hand with his mouth and tongue. He kissed every inch of her breast and then when he reached her rosy colored nipple, he traced it with his tongue and then started to suck hard on her nipple. He knew she was enjoying it from the way that her body was moving, but she was suppressing it. His hand was over her mouth to make sure she didn't scream, but the screaming she try to do was muffled by his huge hand. His free hand was traveled from her breast down to her side and then between her legs.
During this Katherine was confused, shocked, scared so she was unable to scream at this point. She tried to struggled to get out of his grip but he pulled her back down.
"I wanted you for so long. Spending your time with a man like that. You wasted everything on scum like him. A man not worth to see more less touch your beauty," said the familiar voice full of anger.
The mans' hand traveled between her legs and tried to find her secret spot. He saw her eyes widen in fear that he was getting to close. Before he could go any further, someone started to turn the doorknob and opened the door. When Katherine blinked the man was gone. She couldn't move, but she wanted to cover up to show modesty but she couldn't.
"Katherine? Katherine are you awake," asked the voice coming into the room.
"Ugh…um."
Was the only noise she made, because she was still in shock. She watched the figure come closer and closer. Katherine had a look of horror on her face.
"Katherine, it's go…"
The person stopped in mid-sentence, because they were shocked to see Katherine like that. The person called for her maids to come help her. The person covered her up and went outside while the maids got her dressed.
The maids dressed Katherine in a nice plain maroon dress. They put her hair up in a tight bun and put some pearls on her to bring out the color of her skin and pinched her cheeks to bring the color back into them. The maids left Katherine on a settee near the window. When the maids left the room they informed the person that they could go in.
When the person entered the room Katherine stood up and courtesies to the person.
"Duke Kyle, please excuse my appearance earlier when you walked in," said Katherine curtseying again and blushing at the embarrassment.
"Are you all right Katherine? You looked horrible when I walked in! It looked like someone did something to you. Please, forgive me as well for it was my fault for not knocking on the door or ask a maid if you were presentable," replied Duke Kyle blushing a little bit himself.
Katherine put her head facing the ground and started to cry. Duke Kyle took out his hanky and started to walk over to her, but she put her hand up to stop him. She tried to console herself, but that didn't work so she ran into his arms and started to cry. The Duke was surprised and shocked at this, but soon got over it and put his arms around her. ` She is so small and beautiful! My brother was one hell of a lucky man' thought Kyle.
"Duke Kyle…"
"Just call me Kyle, m'lady"
"Okay, Kyle. I must go see my great grandmother the Queen and my great grandfather the king. Can you make arrangements for that," asked Katherine with her eyes puffed and red form crying.
"It shall be done, Katherine. Just lay down and rest for a while," said Kyle with a weak smile and a worried, but confident look on his face.
Kyle rose to leave, but Katherine put her hand on his arm. Kyle stopped and turned to face Katherine.
"Will you ask a maid to stay in here with me, while I rest," asked Katherine pleading?
Kyle nodded his head in acknowledgment that it would be done.
"Thank you, Kyle," said Katherine and started to fell a sleep, but waited till the maid was sent and then she fell a sleep.
"Kagome," yelled Issac from his slumber with sweat down his face!
He looked at his chest and saw the necklace glowing he touched it and pulled it closer to his eye then pulled it away. He wiped the sweat off his face. `It felt as if I was really there and seeing or actually doing the deed' thought Issac to himself shaking his head.
"What the hell is this orb! Why did Kikyo give it to me?"
**Flashback**
"Please forgive me Kikyo! You said protect Kagome and I failed!"
"Inuyashayou have nay failed, but unprepared. All Ican do is give you this and say: use it right when the time comes."
She handed him a pink glass orb with clouds inside. Kikyoturned to leave when Inuyashacalled to her.
"When will Iknow, Kikyo?When will Iknow?"
"You'll know Inuyashawhen the time is right."
**End of Flashback**
Issac was confident about something, but not sure what. He gathered his purse and cloak and headed towards the stables. He told the clerk he would be back and to reserve his room for him. He got on his sattle and headed for the King and Queen's summerhouse at Windsor Castle. `Kagome! Kagome, please forgive me when this is all over,' prayed Issac galloping to Windsor Castle.
