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.

"If I live here, I would only sleep" Shi'Enz said with a smile, untangling her arm with Lydia's to open her arms.

Lydia giggled. "That is ridiculous, there is so much to do" Lydia pointed out.

"How is everyone?" Lydia asked her sister the moment they sat on the wooden garden chairs.

Shi'Enz started with a smile "Mother is fine, a bit confused but fine"

"Father is livid and calculating" she added, shifting in her seat, Lydia listened.

"Mira is going crazy and depressed at the same time," she said nodding.

Before she then sighed and uttered. "Liza is now going to the Citadel"

"Why did she get a job?" Lydia finally said, a question.

Shi'Enz shook her head "No, the emperor came for her" she said in a whisper.
