Lord Theodore's Favorite Ritual

"I have waited for you in all of my lives, Gooseberry, and in all of them you had left. Please stay in this one," he pleaded, his eyes locked with hers. "I wish to stay too, My Lord Husband, because you are forever, Theodore," she whispered, tears glistening in her eyes. In a world where Lydia Statham, an illegitimate girl shunned as an abomination, is confined to her noble-born family’s estate, her only escape comes through books and stories of the outside world. But destiny intervenes when she receives an invitation to a bridal pick banquet at one of Critic Arley’s grandest mansions. What was supposed to be a chance for a new beginning soon becomes a solitary encounter with Lord Theodore, a feared outcast and enemy of the Empire. Lord Theodore, of royal blood but without a surname, has never desired a wife, and the idea of cohabiting with a woman seems unfathomable. Yet, at the banquet thrown by Conan, where every young lady was invited, only Lydia appears. Now, Theodore must confront his deepest reservations as he navigates the ritualistic demands and unearths feelings he never anticipated. In a tale of forbidden desires and unspoken promises, every season, every day, and forever, Theodore's life will revolve around the ritual that is Lydia—his chosen, his fate. No one came but her. His Gooseberry. ************** "Call me Lordess Theodore" "I am Lordess Theodore and I am his favourite ritual" Dear Critic.

Breaching The Dungeons Gate.

Night.

Royal Dungeons.

Critic Citadel, Critic-Ishire.

****************

Alone in the darkness, she clung to the flickering flame of hope, praying for the day when she would feel the warmth of her husband's embrace once more. But for now, all she could do was wait, her heart heavy with the weight of betrayal and longing.

She heard a shuffle suddenly and then there was a thud, she should've been frightened or screaming right then but it was white. 

The illusion in the human mind is that evil doesn't come in white but evil is of different colors, shapes and sizes, you just have to be unlucky.

The creature that landed in her dungeon room was white and small but she couldn't trust anything.

The creature shook its body as if to remove dirt off its body. She frowned.

"Red?"

Purr.
