They come from a good fortune, that they have built on their own with their business.

The Queen hopes that with his good family name and history, his good business and fortune. That the King would like his company and be inclined to give him a position in his government.

So Sir Herb, returned to court by himself, for his audience with the King. The King invited him to play chess with him, as the King asked him questions about his family, his schooling and his business. So Herb told him about how he came from a very old and strong name, but unfortunately his family name would end, seeing as his wife produced only one daughter and was in no place to produce more children. He attended university until he achieved his masters degree and opened a clothing making business, which became very successfully and has been living comfortably. The King thought he would be a candidate to be put in place in his government.

The Lothario Family- Part 1


This is Don Lothario, the man with the black hair and maroon suit. The lovely lady sitting next to him is the woman he has chosen to be his wife. Don never intended to married ever, he was content on being a bachelor all of his life, being strapped down, which is how he felt about being, with a one woman for the rest of his life wasn't something he wanted.

Going on a night in the downtown district, meeting beautiful woman from every class, flirting with them, stealing kisses and staying out at all hours of the night was his kind of night.

He was a doctor, so his hours were very erratic, so he could never stick to seeing only one girl, because she would never be available when he would would be enjoying his time off. So it was only natural that he seek the attention of different women.

He would dine with all sort of lovely ladies, it didn't matter to him that they were married because he had no intention of asking for their hands, he only wanted to enjoy their company for time he had. And when they would leave to tend to their duties....

He easily found someone else to fill the time, he didn't take personally if they didn't want to venture farther than what they were comfortable, whether if they would just let him steal a kiss or if accepted his invitation to his chambers....

If the was a conquest he truly wanted to explore, he would turn on the charm, there was not a woman on earth that he could not seduce into submission. He would have continued to live this way until the end of his days.


But it was his mother's dying wish that he get married and have a family. And after his father died, he left everything to his son with the condition that he be married first, before he was given his father's estates. And this is where Cassandra Goth comes in, Her father, the Duke of Somerset was looking for a husband for her daughter, out of all the suitors, she chose Don Lothario. This is going to be interesting.

The Pleasant Family- Part 4

P4.
Angela vision of the future is becoming more clear, if she choose to run away with Dustin, she would have to give up the comfortable lifestyle that she has know all her life to living in poverty and she would never see her sister and mother again, for fear of her father finding her. She would have to give up her friends, her social status for a life in secret in the outskirts of town. Could she really give up all that, in the name of love, her social status mattered little to her, but the though of not seeing her sister and mother again, weighed on her heart. As she sits in her room, hard at work trying to finish as many projects as she can, meanwhile thinking about her possible future. While pausing, she notices her blistered hands, red from working so hard and for so long.The knock on the door startles her, it was Kaylynn.


"May I come in?" Says Kaylynn
"Yes" Says Angela
"I came to tell you, I'm sorry if I made you think th-" Say Kaylynn
"It's okay dear step-mother, I know, Lilith told me, you were only trying to help" Says Angela
"I see you are very hard at work. My goodness! Look at your hands! They are blistered and red, I will send the maid to mix up a treatment to keep your hands soft" Says Kaylynn
"Thank you" Says Angela
"It seems you can fill a small shop with your projects, are you planing on selling them? To save some money to runaway with Dustin?" Asked Kaylynn
"Where did you hear that silly little lie?" Asked Angela
"From one of the gardeners, he was gossiping to one of the maids, he said he saw you and Dustin in the garden, is this true, Angela?" Asked Kaylynn
"Will you tell father? Even if it maybe a lie?" asked Angela
"No, this isn't my place, but I have some advice" says Kaylynn
"Yes" Says Angela

"I want to tell you about my sister, she was a year older than me and as lovely as you. My father had many suitable suitors come to our home, with intention that she would pick one and marry him. But she would refuse them all, for her heart belonged to another, a young boy of her age, but below our social status. Father would never have allowed it, he grew tired of her stubbornness and told her if she did not pick one of the suitors he approved of, he would pick one for her. She would not have any of, the next day she was gone, father searched high and far for her, but never found her. A year would go by before he would hear any news of her and by the time he found her, she was already married to the young man and carrying his child. Father was distraught, he could not believe she disobeyed him, he disowned my sister and challenged her young husband to a draw. Father won, shot him in the shoulder, father left him barely alive, with my very pregnant sister. Mother told me that he died a few days later, but never told me what became of my sister and her unborn child. I'm not trying to scare you, I'm only trying to show you the possible conflicts of the choice you are making. Your father will search for you for as long as it takes and when he finds you, the consequence not only will fall on you, but on your family.


After hearing the story of Kaylynn's sister, Angela feared the choice to runaway with Dustin is just a fantasy that she sees that if she goes through with it, her father would go to any lengths to find her and punish her and her family. So she decides, for sake of who she loves, she put all her thoughts and dreams of marrying Dustin and she will submit to her father.


So she walks down into his study and knock to be let in.
"Who is it" says Daniel
"It's Angela, may I speak to you, father?" says Angela
"Come in" says her Father
"I have come to apologize, father for my response to your proposal. It wasn't my place to question your planning." says Angela
"Well I'm glad you have come to your senses, my dear daughter. Now, there is one thing we have left to discuss. Have you considered Mrs. Jacquet's request and grant her son chaperone visit?" says her Father
"If you wish me to, I will father" says Angela
"Then it's settled, this Wednesday we will invite them over" says her Father


Angela meeting the man her father want to consider as a husband. Even though she was in love with Dustin, her childhood sweetheart.


 Angela tried to have common interest with her husband to be, she could tell that he wasn't really paying attention. But this is the man her father is sure able to take care of her.


Here's Kaylynn teaching little Daniel how to talk, which he he seems to be getting the hang of, his father will be so proud when the little one learns to speak in full sentences and starts to learn Latin.


His parents make sure to enrich their son's development by providing him with toys that would help him along the way.

Gilbert noticeses her good looks, lovely porceline skin, emerald green eyes, firery red hair, he knew she would produce lovely children and that would delight her mother. So he made peace with the fact that he would marry her, to please her mother.


Angela was a very cultured young woman, as many girls from respectable families. But the truth was, he wasn't very interested in the arts, it actually bores him alot. Going to a tavern, drinking until he couldn't make reasonable decisions and sleeping around with women.


So, after the appropriate time of courting her, he asked Angela's father for her hand, to which he said yes and then asked her for her hand. To which she accepted, so then they celebrated at her father's house and dicussed a date for the wedding.


They decided on a spring wedding, seeing that it was early winter they would have enough time to get everything ready. So as they sat at the dinner, while the women were discussing wedding plans, Gilbert drank till he could make sense of their talk.
