  Rumors

  Lady Angela went around the shop keepers to find the supplies she needed for the upcoming ball that was to happen. She needed shoes, a dress possibly a new hair piece. She had Maria with her so that if anything was to be said, she would hear of any news going on in town. Very rarely did anyone talk around Lady Angela unless they needed help solving a mystery. As she walked towards the gardens she saw Vivian, her longtime friend. Walking up to her, she nodded and smiled at the bundle in her arms.

  “She is beautiful Vivian.” Angela said as she looked at the child Vivian was holding in her arms. Motioning for Maria, Maria came over and took the baby from Vivian and placed her in the carriage. Vivian and Angela sat on a bench and began to chat.

  “Angela.” Vivian began, fluttering her long eyelashes. “The Duke wishes to have another child.”

  “Well that is wonderful.” Angela smiled. “What is the problem?”

  “He insist it is to be a boy.” She sighed.

  “He should just be glad the child will be healthy.” Angela stated and shook her head.

  “I said the same thing.” Vivian responded and looked at Maria with the child in the carriage. “If you ever wish to get rid of her, I will gladly take her.”

  “I like Maria.” Angela stated, “She is good for the children and for Diego.” She added with a laugh. Vivian knew all too well what that statement meant.

  “Also, the Duke does not take an interest in me since the child.” Vivian continued. “He feels I have grown too big.”

  “Oh you just had her.” Angela stated as she stood up and took Vivian by the hand. “You will get back to your size. That man is so pompous.” She pulled a yellow poppy from the arrangement as they walked by and gave it to Vivian.

  “So rumor has it that a past lover will be at the ball.” Vivian said as she looked at the flower. Angela listened patiently. She was sure there was more to the story. “Someone who wants to ruin her.”

  “Well isn’t that half the land?” Angela joked back. She knew the Countess had made some enemies along the way of her position.

  “No, this one knows from where she comes.” Vivian added.

  “Oh, that makes a big difference.” Angela said quietly. The Countess was not from this area, she had come from a place unknown. Just had shown up to live in a castle and be Sir Edward’s niece. He helped establish the Countesses Desdemona’s station. Especially where so many questioned everyone’s station. “Do you know who the suitor is?”

  “No, Angela, I will do my best to find out though.” Vivian answered.

  “When is the next time you see Richard?” Angela questioned.

  “Tonight.” Vivian blushed.

  “Then you must come for tea soon.” Angela stated as they made it to the edge of the gardens to the walk. “Maria, walk home with Duchess Vivian and make sure she gets home safe.”

  “Yes my Lady.” Maria bowed and nodded. She walked behind the Duchess and Angela turned to head home. She had a stop to make before she got there. Walking down the side streets she saw the tavern. She knew that Markus would be there. As she walked in, the tavern seemed dead to the normal eye. She knew otherwise. Everyone was in a room. She headed up the stair and found Markus’ room and made sure no one was in there. There was nothing on the door, so she knew he was alone. A rare treat. She opened the door quietly and noticed the figure sitting up on the bed.

  “Well my Lady.” Boomed the deep voice. “What brings you here?” She heard the voice getting closer then she felt his lips upon hers as she melted into him. His hands fumbled with her cloak as it fell to the floor. She felt his strong arms around her as they moved towards the bed.

  She pushed him down on top of the bed and straddled him. His hands went under her skirts as he felt between her legs. She adjusted herself on top of him, tracing her nails down his bare chest as she felt his manhood grow under her. She moved her hips back and forth teasing him as his hands grabbed her wrist and she gasped. He moved his hips to meet hers as he felt himself start to slide inside her.

  Placing her hands on his chest, she opened up more and let him slide inside her. He felt so good to her. He grew inside her with every motion that she made. His hands traced up her arms and across her voluptuous breast. They both knew this would be all they ever had, so they took advantage of it every chance they got. She rocked her hips back and forth on top of him as he hit every spot inside her making her cry out. Her head thrown back in its own passion. She dug her nails into his chest as he rolled her over and pushed her skirts up further.

  His hands were on her thighs as his hands pulled on her heart shaped ass, pulling her closer to him. Pushing down upon her, he kissed her, his tongue forcing its way into her mouth as she opened up to him. As she began to pant, her legs spread open wider. He grabbed hold of her waist and bit her neck softly, tracing his tongue down the sides. She shivered under him as he went in as deep as he had ever been.

  “Now, release with me now.” He ordered in her ear. She arched into him and let go. Her cries were muffled by his hand as her body shook under him. He laid beside her and traced his fingertips across the top of her bosom. “Now why don’t you tell me why you are really here.”

  “Markus you are too much.” She responded. “I need to know who wishes to destroy the Countess.”

  “You mean the one of many?” He said as he stood up to pour some fresh water.

  “Yes, besides those.” She stood beside him and kissed his back, tracing her hands down his side. “This is a new threat that wishes to expose her.”

  “Oh, that would be Herbert.” Markus laughed. “He is always trying to destroy someone to get ahead.”

  “Where does he come from?” She took a towel and began to wash up.

  “He comes from down the lane my Lady.” Markus turned and took the towel and began to wipe the back of Angela’s neck, kissing it between gentle swipes. “About 4 towns over.”

  “Can he be stopped?” She questioned.

  “Everyone can always be stopped.” He finished washing her neck and then moved between her thighs. “You just have to find a person’s thumbscrews.”

  “Then I shall find his.” She stated clearly as she began to take her leave.

  “We really must stop meeting like this my Lady.” Markus stated as he climbed back into bed. “What must your husband think?”

  “That is why you can’t come to the house, because he tells me what he thinks.” She smiled and winked as she left the room. Angela knew she needed to make sure it was Herbert that was going to come and tell everyone about the Countess and not someone else. That would take more investigation around town.

  So it Begins

  Angela headed home looking all around her for new people in town. The ball was 2 days away and she wanted to be able just to have fun. She and Diego had not been out together for fun since the twins were born. And for just one night she wanted to make sure that she did not have to wear the red cape. That did not seem as if it were going to happen.

  When she arrived she ran into Maria who was getting the children ready or dinner. Hugging Michael and Racheal she traced her hands across their faces and down their chin. She kissed their noses and looked at Maria nodding. Maria took the children to the kitchen and then came back out after they had their supper placed in front of them. She found Lady Angela in the Library. Lifting her skirts and curtsying she waited to be allowed in.

  “Come Maria.” Lady Angela said as she looked out the window. Something told her it was not about Herbert that she needed to be worried of. “There is word that someone has information on the Countess and I wish to find out who.”

  “Yes, my Lady.” Maria nodded. “I will listen to the words that shared in the center and around the house.”

  “Report them only to me.” Angela knew that Maria already knew this, she just wanted to state it clearly. “Now where is Diego do you know?”

  “Yes my Lady.” Maria whispered. “He is in the bedroom.”

  “I se
e.” Angela smiled, her transgression did not feel so bad since she knew Diego had Katarina in their bed. “Thank you Maria, you are dismissed.”

  “Thank you my Lady.” Maria curtsied again and left the library. Angela sat in Diego’s chair behind his desk and waited for him to come down. It was not long before he did. He was not surprised to see her there as he walked in. He closed the doors behind him and approached the desk.

  “Well my Lady Angela.” He smiled and his blue cobalt eyes twinkled. “What a pleasure to have you home. I do hope Markus was well.” Angela looked at her husband and responded calmly.

  “As well as Katarina is I am sure.” She nodded her head and looked at him.

  “Then they are both well.” He chuckled. “What did you find out about the town? Is Vivian ready for a second child as of yet?” He sat on the edge of the desk.

  “No she is not. She does not seem too happy about it.” Angela glanced at Diego and looked him up and down. “This is all your fault you know.” She pouted.

  “What is my fault my love?” He asked as he took her hand in his.

  “You insisted I investigate things and now I am addicted to finding out things that may or may not matter.” She stood up and pulled away her hand, standing in front of the large bay window.

  “Well, you are good at what you do.” He walked behind her and kissed the back of her neck moving the loose blonde hairs out of the way. “What is the trouble this time?” Angela told him the full story of everything she knew that was going to happen the night of the Ball and she looked at him with her crystal blue eyes stomping her foot.

  “I just wanted to go to the ball to have fun.” She muttered.

  “Well then just do that.” He chuckled.

  “How can I?” She sputtered. “How can I just sit by and allow such to happen to one of our own?”

  “She is not one of our own my love.” He commented as he walked over to pour a drink for both of them. “Perhaps that is where you will find your answer.”

  “That would require me to go to the town she came from.” Angela looked at him as she took the drink. “It is too far away.” She pouted.

  “Go talk to Elsa, she will know.” Was all he would say. He took Angela by the hand. “Come now, it is dinner time and Edgar feels lonely in this home.” Angela remembered how Edgar had come home with Diego and she after he found out his wife had killed a house slave. He could not go back in the home, so instead, he moved in with them. Bringing the household goods and servants with him. Angela walked with Diego to the dining area and were greeted by Edgar. He beamed when he saw Angela and rushed to kiss her on the cheek.

  Soon the dining room was full of discussion and talk of the ball. Who was going to be there and what were the people going to wear. Edgar still had to have his clothing made. Angela shook her head and mentioned that he should go with her to town the next day. There was much laughter and merriment as Maria brought the children through to say good night to Diego, Angela and of course Edgar.

  As the night came to an end, Angela had Maria draw her a bath before bed. She knew she would have to don the red cape tonight and seek out Elsa who no longer spent her time at the tavern. She had moved onto a Counts villa. It was a good thing Angela knew the servants that were there to slip in without being noticed. She said her good nights and went up to the room where the bath water was ready so she could prepare for the night.

  As she finished her bath and began to dress, Diego came in looking at Angela. His mouth watered as he wanted to have her right then and there. He saw her put on the red cape and knew it was already too late. He would have her when she came back from her journey. Angela saw him out of the corner of her eye and smiled into the mirror. Getting up she walked over to him and kissed him on the cheek.

  “I won’t be long.” She whispered. “I promise, stay awake.” Her fingers traced across his jawbone as she left to go find Elsa. After several hours she came back to find Diego awake and lying in bed without a stitch of clothing on. He looked at her as she glowed. She moved around the room removing her cloak and undressing in front of him. He laid back and looked at her with lust in his eyes.

  “You are insatiable.” Angela commented as she crawled into bed with him only wearing a shift. He dipped in and started to kiss her neck.

  “Are you complaining?” He asked as his fingertips traced across her breast and made her nubs hard. Her body responded to his touch. He knew where and how to touch her to make her a puddle in the bed. His mouth followed his fingers as he went lower and lower.

  She did not stop him as she felt his mouth on her nub and her body arched in response. Her head buried into the bed as she closed her eyes and colors spun behind her eyes. She was in her own world at this time as he kissed his way back up and moved between her thighs.

  “I have missed you my love.” He placed the head of his manhood between her lips and slowly entered her. His hands went around her back and he pulled her close as he felt himself inside her. They moved together as they were in their own place and time. Her hands traced down his back as she wrapped one leg around his hip. She opened more for him as she felt his balls against her skin. She searched for his mouth as they kissed softly at first and then he became hungrier with his kisses.

  “Let go my love.” He whispered as he thrust one more time. She clung to his back as her cries were muffled by his shoulder. As they laid side by side, he traced his fingertip across her cheek.

  “Did you find out what you needed to my love?” He asked finally.

  “Yes, I did.” She smiled. “I will need to see the Countess tomorrow.” She laid her head on his shoulder as his arms wrapped around her. “So can you please take Edgar to town and help him?”

  “I can do that.” He answered with a yawn.

  The Understanding

  Angela was up early to go see Sir Edward. She knew she was not announced, she was just going to show up. She would come up with an excuse on the way. She leaned over Diego who was still sleeping and kissed his cheek. He touched her hand and smiled without opening his eyes.

  “I must go my love.” She whispered.

  “I know, be safe and hurry home.” He answered through a yawn. “I want to have you again.”

  “I will be back soon.” Angela put on her red cape and headed out the door to the carriage that was waiting for her. As she got in Maria looked at her and nodded. “Help Diego and Edgar today, we have a ball tomorrow.”

  “Yes Lady Angela.” Maria stated.

  As Angela approached Sir Edward’s castle, she thought quickly as to how she would be able to get in and talk to the Countess. As the coach approached the front of the castle, Angela stepped out and was announced. Soon she was joined in the Foyer by Sir Edward and Countess Desdemona.

  “What brings you here my dear?” Desdemona asked as she kissed Angela on the cheeks. “And unannounced.”

  “Well, I needed to talk to you and your uncle.” Angela began looking around as she saw much movement around the halls for preparation for the ball. “Alone would be best.” She noted the many ears around. Sir Edward took the ladies to his study and sat down looking at Angela.

  “Well Lady Angela, what was so important that you needed to come unannounced?” He began. He did not like what she was capable of, all her detective work.

  “I will be short and blunt.” Angela began looking at both the Countess and Sir Edward. “There is a conspiracy that is taking place behind your backs that will be exposed tomorrow if you do not do something to stop it.”

  “Oh, what else is new Lady Angela?” Desdemona boomed. “This is nothing new in my world. You of all people should know this.”

  “This is a bit more than the normal situation Countess Desdemona.” Angela stated flatly. Looking at Sir Edward. “Is Countess Desdemona your niece Sir Edward?” He looked back at her.

  “Of course she is.” He huffed and stood up. “I think this has gone far enough.”

  “Well it will go further if you don’t listen.” An
gela answered. Edward sat back down looking at Angela. “Thank you Sir Edward, I will ask you again, is Countess Desdemona your niece?”

  “Well not exactly.” He began. “Why do you ask?”

  “Because someone knows this and wishes for the town to know this as well.” Angela continued, “This would allow the towns people to drive you and Countess Desdemona out of town.”

  “Oh this is rubbish.” Desdemona moved towards Angela.
