Gavin smiled, hearing Honore's last words. He stood and pulled her to him. "Come on, we'll go straight to the chapel. The priest will marry us." He happily took her in his arms and kissed her cheek. "I promise you, Honore, I will be the most devoted and loving husband in history." He quickly took her up to the chapel, hoping that she didn't change her mind on the way.<br/><br/>The old priest had a few concerns, though. "If I marry you secretly, you must be married in public as soon as possible," he said after Gavin explained their needs.<br/><br/>"We will. I promise that as soon as all this clears, I will take the Comtess as my legal bride in the eyes of the people," Gavin said. He turned to Honore. "Will all this meet your approval, my love?"<br/><br/>***********<br/><br/>Dressed and ready, Diane wrote two notes. One for Lord Martinez and one for Prince Tansen. She was to have lunch with one of them, and she wasn't sure who. Each note stated that if he was the one ordered by Gavin to lunch with her, then she would be waiting in the gardens. Turning to Nicole, she said, "Have these delivered to the right parties. I will be in the garden, waiting."<br/><br/>She had a duty to her kingdom, and that meant marrying. Even though her mind rebelled and she wanted to stay with Honore and Gavin, she would be the girl that she was raised to be.
