She is seen as a ghost, avoided by all who visit the baron's home until she becomes the duke’s wife. No one could understand why the duke would pick such a wife. Did he wish to die? What would become of the girl who once hid in the shadows but now had the spotlight on her as the duke’s masked wife? What would everyone say if they were to learn the truth that she was in a contracted marriage with the duke?

Letters (3)
Wilma returned before Alessandra with two stacks of envelopes tied with pretty ribbons. One stack had more letters and it was given to Alessandra first. "These are all the letters you sent to us over the eight years. We would keep them in a box to read over while we awaited another response. One day the letters just stopped and it was wrong of us to not come to visit you again when you were older."
Alessandra untied the ribbon and opened the first letter on the stack. She most definitely did not write any of these but she wanted to see what was sent.
