<div style="text-align: justify;">"Thank you, María. Please, do not talk to anyone about our conversation", Carlota requested softly. "I hope he is a good man, as I am decided to be a good woman", the girl completed, watching as the woman left. It would be a long and short time until the wedding, that was for sure. A long time to wonder how her new life would be. And a short time, if it was to be a sad one.<br/><br/>"I shall trust in God and the Virgin", Carlota murmured, before starting to change. As always, she said her night prayers and laid on her bed to rest. It took her longer than usual to fall asleep. Thoughts and feelings she had never harbored before came to bother her. When she finally fell asleep, Carlota had strange dreams. Dreams with the Captain in her chambers, sharing her bed.<br/><br/>She didn't know yet what to expect, but they were sinful dreams, of that she was sure. The poor girl was so scared with the dreams that she was afraid to fall asleep for the rest of the night. In the morning, Carlota stayed in her chambers, complaining of a headache, but she was actually too ashamed to leave her cabin and find herself face to face with the object of his dreams.<br/><br/>In the morning, at Peter's orders, the cook nodded. "She is probably with Lady Carlota. One of the girls mentioned something about the lady being unwell this morning".</div>
