Breaking the News

“You just wait here with dear Ralph and just let that old man pamper you,” Edward suggested.

“Where are you going?” I asked in a panic.

“To let my brother know that we’re getting married,” Edward replied like it was no big deal.

“You mean…Lucien?” I asked in shock.

“Yup. Who else? I only have one brother,” he replied with a smirk.

“Should I come along?” I asked hesitantly.

Truthfully, I didn’t want to be there, but it didn’t feel right to let Edward handle this burden alone. It was obvious that the conversation regarding my marriage to Edward wouldn’t go down well with Lucien.

“No need. To be honest, it’ll be easier if I went alone,” Edward said confidently.

“Ok…” I replied hesitantly.

“You just rest and settle in. Ralph will find something to entertain you with if you’re bored. I’ll be back very soon,” Edward said cheerily as he headed for the door.

“Don’t worry. I’ll be fine,” I said.
