Many years ago...
Pining wondering thinking, wishing she stepped within the room. He bent on one knee, and grasped her hand. His eyes glimmered up at her with longing, Wisteria, my love I have asked your father and he has given his approval. Marry me....
She smiled the joy in her heart overflowing, but the green eyes watched. From the Shadows she coveted, from the shadows she hated her fury growing with each word. The couple embraced, cold tears running down her face. Something wasnt right.

Closer to now then before
The hour grew late and there was a tap on her window, Wisty? Wisty let me in...She opened the balcony doors and clung to him kissing his face over and over. He smiled at her and carressed her face, how are you I have heard you have been ill. Wisty smiled brightly, I am fine just a bit of sickness in the mornings. He nodded, do not worry my love we will be wed before anyone knows. Wisty smiled at him, of course of course Stephan!

Closing in on today but clinging to yesterday
She grieved heavily for whatever would she do, young Wisteria, her father dead and lo she carried Stephens child. Yet he was dead, dead, dead and they were unwed. Such shame would be brought to her family, such disgrace. Willow, couldnt know, no one could know never would she tell her secret. Miseries cold fingers wrapped around her, when Willow was well enough she would sell the house and lands and leave they would run away from all who knew her. She would raise the child in secret.
It was all a pointless endeavor, the pregnancy failed, and the house and lands were sold so she continued with the plan, not understanding that she could not make live seed live within her, that only death's spawn could she give life....
*************************************************************
Today...
Wisteria's eyes snapped open her hand feeling about for Toren's form, yet there was none, he had already risen for the day. She felt ill, why had she dreamed of her lost babe, what had brought all this on.
She paused and her stomach churned, she barely made it to the window wretching and coughing. She slid down the wall and fell like a lump to the floor. Nerves she told herself, surely nerves.. Yet she knew in her heart that she was only fooling herself....
************************************************************
Worrying of tomorrow....
She put her head to her knees and began to sob, not again, this cant be happening again... |
