<article class="message-body js-selectToQuote">
			
				
			

			<div>
				
					<div class="bbWrapper">The road beneath the hooves of the horses was well-paved, and all along it was well-manicured. Bushes of flowering plans lined it, and trees provided a pleasant shade from the sun, but not so much as to make the passage dark. Along the road traveled a noble party from the land of Kirst, the Adal family and their entourage.<br>
<br>
<br>
It wasn’t the entire family of course, that was not presently necessary. Lyle and Lionel Adal were the male representatives of the family, there to make sure everything would go as had been written before they made the official agreement to sign away the life of Leah Adal.<br>
<br>
<br>
Those two were in the carriage. Leah was not. The woman who had seen twenty nine years of life rode near the front on her own horse, a mostly red creature with white speckles on its coat. She was not dressed as a lady ought to be, particularly not a lady trying to be wed to a wealthy lord. Such a lady ought to be in the carriage, in a dress, but she was in tan leathers, pants and a tunic for ease of riding. Her strawberry blonde hair was held up in a ponytail, and her gloved hands gripped the reins with knowledge.<br>
<br>
<br>
Riding alongside her was a man with black hair just as long as her own, but it was allowed to be loose. He was not a part of the family, but the bodyguard of Leah, and as loyal as they came. He wore armored leather, and there was a sword at his hip. “So, this…Fredrick,” he finally spoke up, voice accented, “he is noble you say, but he was poor?”<br>
<br>
<br>
Leah gave a nod.<br>
<br>
<br>
“And he got his wealth from you?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Do not rub it in, we’ve been over this,” Leon, the brother back home who threatened to burn and pillage Fredrick’s lands along with the approaching army, had explained everything in unnecessary detail.<br>
<br>
<br>
“No, no, I am merely trying to understand. Where I am from, a poor noble would be no noble at all,” nobility implied wealth. One who couldn’t afford to take care of their lands and people would be usurped.<br>
<br>
<br>
Leah shook her head, “It’s more about blood here. Once noble, always noble,” she answered him. “There are many beggar nobles. They usually become puppets to wealthy merchants.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Mm, I see,” he gave a nod. “Yet your parents are marrying you to a family that knows not how to maintain their wealth, because this…army that is approaching may ravage your own lands, yes?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Yes.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Why not marry you to a son of that army?”<br>
<br>
<br>
“Because Fredrick’s family is less foreign.” The scowl that crossed Devon’s face was priceless. “You should know this. You see how they barely tolerate you.” The smile that came to her lips was teasing. Devon was not a family guard—just hers. His loyalty was firmly held, bought through acts of mercy and generosity. He owed his life to her. He owed his family’s livelihood, to her.<br>
<br>
<br>
“But his family devastated yours.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“And they will be paying a little of it back.”<br>
<br>
<br>
“A little?” There was a glint in Devon’s dark eyes, and a smile on his lips that spoke of nothing but intrigue. Leah shot her eyes towards his, and returned the smile. Words weren’t necessary.<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>“Do not worry, Leon. They will pay it all back.” </i>Leah had spoken those words just a day or two back, to the brother who didn't come.<br>
<br>
<br>
Among the many items packed were Leah’s tools of the trade. She had quelled Leon’s anger with a promise to restore her own dignity and not let herself be a mere pawn in the game of political marriages. Their parents might be willing to bow to others to get money and protection from well-paid knights, but Leah and Leon were not.<br>
<br>
<br>
Dignity and honor were more highly valued, since they learned what could be earned with that currency.<br>
<br>
<br>
Money was fickle. Honor and debts were not.<br>
<br>
<br>
They moved through the town before arriving at the manor, finding it lively and industrious. A water wheel was turning constantly in the pool that surrounded the manor. “Quaint, no?”<br>
<br>
<br>
Leah rolled her eyes at Devon’s comment. It was quaint, compared to her own living space which most would consider luxurious. The money that had been taken must have been used to decorate the interior, or perhaps put to other uses. It was curious, either way.<br>
<br>
<br>
Leah’s horse Strawberry, and Devon’s Storm were able to move over to the side as the household of the Medley tended to the carriage. Out stepped her brother first, with his brown-red hair cut short around his ears. It was Lyle who then helped her father, who had the strawberry blonde locks she’d inherited, though it was more blonde now. The gray of age was taking away its color.<br>
<br>
<br>
There was some confusion, and someone asked, “Where is Lady Adal?” to which her brother gave an exasperated sigh and then an exaggerated gesture towards her.<br>
<br>
<br>
When the staff looked her way, she put on a clearly fake smile and gave a wave to them. Devon held in a laugh at the looks of concern and quick requests for forgiveness at the oversight.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><span style="font-size: 12px"><div class="bbcode-border" style="border: 5px solid darkslategray;">Sunlight streamed through the windows of the library, illuminating the room more than the lit candles ever could. The library was dreary, dark, and lonesome like the rest of Fredrick's home. Although his family told him to add some light colors, he didn't do so. The lightness irritated his eyes and he enjoyed the solitude that came with dark tones.</div></span><div class="bbcode-border" style="border: 5px solid darkslategray;"><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px"><br>
A carriage soon crossed the bridge that connected his home to the land. He could see two figures sitting at the front a man and a woman. Fredrick couldn't help but snicker at the sight of the woman. He could recognize her anywhere with her strawberry blonde hair and slim figure. It wasn't surprising she wore men's garments. The girl practically lived her life doing tasks a women would never dream of on a normal day.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px"><br>
"Lord Fredrick?"</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px"><br>
Fredrick turned and was greeted with a young female servant. Her brunette hair was in a messy bun atop her head and she wore a nervous expression. "Yes, Lucinda?" He replied, a small smirk on his lips as he walked over to her. Lucinda was one of the newer servants. At age 19, she had managed to get herself kicked out of her home and onto the streets in town. Luckily, Fredrick had been in the area and he quickly took the girl in.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px"><br>
She fiddled with the hem of her her tan dress and murmured. "L-Lady Adal and company have arrived." </span><br>
<br>
<span style="font-size: 12px"><br>
With a nod, Fredrick dismissed the girl after telling her to show them to library. He would have gone down himself but he didn't want to interact with them more than he had to. All he needed to do was make sure everything went as planned, as ordered by his parents. </span><span style="font-size: 12px"><i>Reassure them and then marry the girl</i></span><span style="font-size: 12px">. He thought as he sat at his desk, his back to the window. </span><span style="font-size: 12px"><i>Simple.</i></span></div></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">A servant scurried out, a young woman, and Devon couldn’t help but make the joke, “How many of those do you think will have competing bastards?”<br>
<br>
<br>
Leah might have shoved him off his horse, if she had but the strength to do so. Instead, she said, “Aren’t you going to help me down, Volte?” To which he reacted immediately, sliding off his own mare and then thrusting the reins into the hands of one of the nearby boys who looked like he was in charge of the horses.<br>
<br>
<br>
Devon offered his arm up for the lady, and she swung leg over the horse and then took hold of his arm as he helped her down. She could have gotten down just as easily as he did, but he’d annoyed her. Naturally, that meant he was going to help her with such a simple task.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Lord Fredrick will receive you in the library.”<br>
<br>
<br>
The look Lionel shot to Lyle was a question. <i>‘Is this normal, or meant to be offensive?’</i> The differences in the ways the families treated their guests was starkly apparent already. Lionel would have been out to receive his guests personally, or else Leon would be there in his stead. That Fredrick was receiving them was also strange. Lionel had made the arrangements with Fredrick’s father.<br>
<br>
<br>
Personally, Lionel didn’t want to see Fredrick at all. “Very well,” the library? Why not the sun room, or perhaps a private dining hall? That was usually where Lionel took guests, expecting they would want to sit and have a bit to drink before business began. Places meant for talking. A library didn’t have that feel. “Please show us the way.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Lyle motioned for Leah, but both she and Devon approached. He didn’t bother reaching for her hand, seeing that Devon was taking the role of her escort in this situation. “Still annoyed with me?” He asked in a whisper as they followed after the servant.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Yes,” Leah answered him honestly. Her brother deserved that much from her.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper"><div class="bbcode-border" style="border: 5px solid darkslategray;">Four people entered the library. Excluding Leah, Fredrick recognized two of them to be her younger brothers, Lyle and Lionel. The other figure, however, with his dark hair and piercing gaze, was a new face. The dirty blond was not expecting another guest but he quickly realized he must have been Leah's bodyguard by the way he handled himself. Fredrick's blue eyes briefly went over the sword on the man's side.<br>
<br>
<i><br>
Old habits never died</i>, as Fredrick remembered his grandmother telling him before she. The woman wasn't like the rest of his family. Cunning, deceiving, the epitome of lies. She never approved the way the Medley's went about with things. Suzanne even asked Fredrick to come stay with her when he was in his younger years, but he couldn't bring himself to abandon his struggling family. He still went to visit her often and was close to her, so hearing of her passing while he was serving the army hit him deeply.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Welcome Lords, Lady, and I'm assuming Knight?" Fredrick greeted, his voice rising towards the end of his statement.<br>
<br>
<br>
Walking around his large desk and towards the center of the library where a table and six chairs sat, he gestured them in. "Come, sit. I apologize that it is not my father but I that you must speak with. Mother suddenly fell ill." Although he spoke as if it were the truth, it most definitely was not. His parents believed it'd be best for him to make a good impression and show how much the marriage was to him. It was a debatable decision but in the end, there he was. "I hope my home is not too dreary for you. My servants complain all the time about how... remote, it is." He shot the servants who stood at the door and amused look before nodded them to leave. They did a small curtsy and scurried off.<br>
<br>
<br>
"I'm sure you can already tell I have strange habits. Partly due to my previous lifestyle and because of that I'm more of the get-to-the point type of person, so shall we begin by answering any of your questions?" Fredrick bluntly asked as he sat at the end of the table, his together with his elbows resting on the table.<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Every action was judged under the scrutinizing blue eyes of Lionel, who knew already he was upsetting two his children by humoring this arrangement. Though Leon and Leah thought that this was unnecessary, he understood the finances better than either of them—he was the Head of the House, after all. He took care with his finances.<br>
<br>
<br>
<i>‘Hunger always outweighs debts.’</i> Lionel wouldn’t suffer a revolt.<br>
<br>
<br>
Once they entered the library, Fredrick was there to greet them. Lionel let out a ‘hmph’ at the idea that Devon was a knight, and the man’s dark eyes lit up, “Knight?” He spoke as if it was a hilarious idea.<br>
<br>
<br>
Lyle was the one who shook his head. “Mercenary,” he spoke the word under his breath, but loud enough to carry to Fredrick. Lyle and Lionel were the only knights in the room, on top of being lords.<br>
<br>
<br>
“He called me a knight,” Devon whispered to Leah as they were led to tables. “I like this suitor.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Leah bit down on a comment about how he should be careful—Fredrick’s flattery and lies could be the end of a man, as easily as a woman. She assumed Devon knew that well enough. He was just being teasing.<br>
<br>
<br>
Lionel took the apology in silence, neither accepting or rejecting it. It was on the tip of his tongue to ask if Lord Fredrick's father was a doctor--something he doubted. If he wasn't a doctor, he could have left the woman's side to tend these matters. However, Lionel chose not to be rude.<br>
<br>
<br>
The table was set for six, but Devon didn’t sit. He stood near the empty chair, and crossed his arms over the top of it. The Adals all sat as servants were dismissed, and more apologies of a sort came about the home. There, Lionel shook his head, indicating that much was unnecessary.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Yes, you do,” Lionel stated bluntly when Fredrick mentioned having strange habits. He was he who occupied the center, for it was he who would speak for the decision of the Adals’. Lyle was there merely to observe how things ought to be done. “We can begin by getting the Medley’s promises in the form of a contract,” he knew that would also mean getting the Adal promises in the form of a contract. “If I am not mistaken, we’ve agreed to allow Medley troops to join our own, if we are compensated both financially and with food to supply to all the troops, and to keep the approaching army from crossing our lands, into yours. To solidify this agreement, you are to take Leah’s hand in marriage. Does that sound like what you’ve been told?”</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Fredrick raised an eyebrow at the three men. Each of whom had different comments when the title "Knight" was brought up. It was rather amusing.<br>
<br>
<br>
"Yes, my father informed me of everything." <i>And with this marriage, father will make me Head of the Household. Then I won't have to listen to his damned requests anymore. The things I do for my family...</i> Fredrick smiled as he eyed the four figures carefully. He was a master at reading movements. From the twitch of an eye, a bead of sweat, or even the slightest flick of the wrist, he could tell what was on a person's mind. Or at least get a decent impression. "Other than what our families have arranged, what's your say in this, <i>Lady Leah</i>?"<br>
<br>
<br>
He turned his attention to the strawberry blonde woman. Her posture was near perfect and she held a look of both elegance and grace even though she wore men's garments. Her beauty was as admirable as ever and the way she seemed to glare at him with her piercing green eyes sent an almost disgusting, delightful chill down Fredrick's spine. He wondered if she knew how he was testing her.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Lionel gave a nod as it seemed everything was in order. Fredrick had been informed of all things, or he was acting like it. Again, Lionel mentally cursed the fact he had to deal with a child. <i>‘Well, not a child, but….’</i> Still not the one in charge. A youth. Was this youth also going to be the one dealing with the money and the troop dispersion?<br>
<br>
<br>
As Lionel considered this, a question was directed at Leah. She had been quiet, peaceful, playing her role as a lady marvelously despite her attire.<br>
<br>
<br>
There’d been no time to change, not that she would have. This meeting wasn’t to make an impression, after all. The terms had already been decided. She and Fredrick had met before.<br>
<br>
<br>
Despite the calm gaze that rested on Fredrick, the dislike that glint in her eyes as she watched the blond man was evident. At his question, she answered simply, “I am merely doing what is necessary for the survival of both of our lands, Lord Medley,” there would be no informality, despite how intimate they were supposed to be. They were not yet wed, and there was no need for lies in this company.<br>
<br>
<br>
Even if her father wrinkled his nose at the composed tone. It betrayed no malice, but it also gave no hint of warmth.She had not forgotten,and she had not forgiven.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"Noted." The smile on Fredrick's lips widened. He ignored the faint pinch in his chest and reminded himself that he had to despise the woman if he were to pull everything off. However, without a legitimate reason, hating proved to be quite difficult.<br>
<br>
<br>
Frederick then called for one of his servants, a male this time. He quickly came in with parchment in hand that was neatly rolled. "Well, if that is all we need to discuss. I suppose it's time to sign the contract." He stated as he unrolled the parchment. The paper contract wasn't necessary but most people preferred to have their agreements on paper. It was understandable, but a hassle at the same time, in Fredrick's opinion.<br>
<br>
<br>
His hands slowly went to the ink and quill besides him and he skillfully signed his name towards the bottom. After he was done, he slid to the contract to the girl and watch her sign her life away. It was a sad thought how the many of upper class had to go through with a political marriage.<br>
<br>
<br>
Fredrick snapped back to attention when the contract was handed back to him. "Take this to my study. Thank you." He ordered politely to the servant boy. "Now, I'd offer you board and stay but I'm sure you all must be busy. I myself have business matters to attend to tonight. Shall I see you to your carriage?"</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Devon smirked over his chair at Fredrick’s response, trying to read the lordling as well. There was something about the strange man that Devon liked, or perhaps it was the supposed cunning he had. He wondered, briefly, if Fredrick had any idea the risk he was putting himself into. <i>‘He has to know.’</i> Devon couldn’t imagine him an idiot.<br>
<br>
<br>
Yet, he didn’t act like it. The contract was brought in, and the lad fearlessly signed away his own potential to be in a happy marriage before turning it over. Leah took up the pen and the ink, and did the same with no hesitations, before offering the pen to her father so that he could sign as witness, as well as show his agreement with the idea.<br>
<br>
<br>
Paper was the only way Lionel would do anything with Fredrick, and his eyes skimmed over the contents to make sure everything was in order. He was not going to be taken for a fool a second time. After reading it twice over, he put his own name to it, and turned it back to Fredrick. “No, I do not need you to take me to my carriage, however, I do need a copy of that,” he gestured as the servant boy started to take away the contract.<br>
<br>
<br>
He was not walking out of here without one, when it could be altered. He’d have an original copy, and if they tried to change one word of the agreement, he’d see to it the world knew of the Medley deceptions. He was already wholly unimpressed with the greeting he’d received here, and how curtly he was being dismissed.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">"I do apologize for not come to greet you myself. Please allow me to extend that apology by seeing you to your carriage." He apologized in the most honest voice he could muster, a small smile still played on his lips. However, his eyebrows were slightly arched down, a puppy dog face if you would call it.<br>
<br>
<br>
Fredrick listened Lionel for a copy of the agreement. "Very well." He replied, nodding towards the servant who gave him a look that asked for approval. "It should not take long as we prepared another copy just in case." Fredrick knew the family would be extremely cautious, especially with how he cheated them. He has genuinely wanted to apologize to them over the years but he knew no apology could mend whatever relationship he had with them. Many times he's asked himself why he let his family manipulate him but he has never been able to answer that question.<br>
<br>
<br>
As quickly as he said that, the same boy came rushing in with another parchment in hand. Fredrick repeated his steps, signing the paper and handing it to the opposite family, letting them keep the copy.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Lionel truly didn’t want Fredrick to escort them back to the carriage, if only because he wanted his last few moments with Leah to be private, and without the burden of false faces. He grit his teeth when Fredrick made the offer more clear, but then held back on a response when a new paper was given, and the contract copied over.<br>
<br>
<br>
There was no pomp and ceremony for this arrangement. Another thing Fredrick found odd, though he suspected Leah was just fine with that. Better not to deal with the public.<br>
<br>
<br>
She again signed the second copy, before offering it to him and allowing him to sign it again, only after he’d read through it to make sure it read the same. He then put his name to paper, and passed it to Lyle so his son would stow it away nicely.<br>
<br>
<br>
He rose then, “Well, I believe we’re all prepared then. If you wish to see us to our carriages, you may. There are a few things to unload for Leah,” he gave a gesture to her, “Some things she couldn’t part with,” clothing and the like would be expected. He knew too well she’d brought her medicines and such, but he didn’t suspect much from it. It was her hobby, and it would make her loved here, one day, when the people understood that she could and would heal them.<br>
<br>
<br>
“Then we’ll be on our way back home.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Leah rose then, and Devon pushed back the chair he’d been leaning on to offer his arm to her again. He, of course, wouldn’t be leaving with the others. His job was her life, and that meant sticking around.<br>
<br>
<br>
Lyle only rose once he’d finished rolling up their version of the contract.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Fredrick swiftly rose to his feet and allowed his guests to walk before him through each door. When the group was outside, he waited nearest the front entry way to not only allow Leah to part with her family, but to avoid the sun. The clouds provided bits of shade but he still disliked the brightness of daylight. "I'll wait to allow you time to part ways, then." He said as he gave each Adal member a small smile.<br>
<br>
<br>
His servants began scurrying out the manor and towards the carriage, grabbing all of Leah's belongings. Soon Leah and her guard approached Fredrick and he shuffled his feet slightly to allow to pass. "I'll show you to your quarters then." The blonde said bluntly. A bit of the formalities gone. Leah's father and brother were no longer there. "I don't believe I got your name." Fredrick voiced as they headed up the stairs. When he learned the male's name, he gave him a smile and repeated it. "It's fancy meeting you."<br>
<br>
<br>
Finally, they arrived at Leah's bedroom. It had the same dark theme as the rest of the house except the bed and its blue violet cover. "I hope this is to your liking. If not, we can adjust it, of course." Fredrick smirked slightly.<br>
<br>
<br>
He turned to Devon. "Your room is right across your Lady's for convenience. I'm right down the hall, in the event that you two actually may need me."<br>

					<div class="bbWrapper">The parting was bittersweet, but Leah promised to visit when she could. If all things went her way, it’d be much sooner than either were expecting. Devon seemed to be biting his tongue on comments all the while servants took the items that were Leah’s to bring to a room. “I’ll get that one,” Devon said when he saw one servant start to lift a particular hope chest.<br>
<br>
<br>
The servant gave him an odd look, but then stepped back to let Devon heft it himself.<br>
<br>
<br>
It was one of the last items, and with it under an arm, Devon and Leah approached Fredrick. He didn’t turn them to a servant, but promised to lead them himself. A name was asked, “I’m Devon Volte. Of Gran Soral—that’s why I’m not a knight,” he offered, to explain the earlier reactions. No lowborn man of Gran Soral was going to be made into a knight by any king.<br>
<br>
<br>
Still, when he said it was ‘fancy’, Devon snorted. He could get used to this.<br>
<br>
<br>
He had a room set up already, near Leah’s own room, to which he nodded his approval, “Huh, I guess you really didn’t need any warning about me.” The colors were certainly to his liking.<br>
<br>
<br>
Leah’s smile was polite as Devon walked by her to set the chest near the bed, “This is fine, Fredrick,” Leah answered his query, “I thank you for the accommodations. I’ll see to it that I make it like home and get unpacked soon.”<br>
<br>
<br>
Devon stepped by her to get out of her room. He had unpacking to do, as well. “If we need you, we’ll shout,” Devon agreed. He wondered, briefly, if it would be like that for their entire stay. <i>‘If so, there’s going to be a lot of bastards running about.’</i> Though he didn’t think Leah was going to mind never consummating the union. It just might make it trickier to poison the man if they were never spending time together.<br>
<br>
<br>
Devon was interested to see how she dealt with that, or if Fredrick’s cool front was a lie.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Fredrick smiled, the corners of his lips slightly twitching from the forced effort. "Supper will be served before the sun sets. One of my servants will fetch you. If you need anything else, I will be in the library." He gave the man and woman the slightest nod and made his leave. When he turned a corner, he allowed his smile to drop into a nonchalant line.<br>
<br>
<br>
It took only a few moments before he was in the comfort of his library. The scent of paper filled his nose and warmth spread throughout his body. He was so attached to books, and the reason was, he loved to learn. Fredrick found reading the best way to knowledge and so he took whatever spare time he had to hunt and read books. They also took his mind off the harsh reality his life was. A life full of deceit and corruption. A life of lies.<br>
<br>
<br>
<b>~Flashback~</b><br>
<br>
<br>
<i>"Father, I refuse to do that!" a young, teenaged Fredrick cried. He stood in the ragged room his family called a kitchen. The small dining table was rough on the edges and broken stools laid beside it. A man who looked like an older version of the blond sat in one.</i><br>
<br>
<i><br>
"Fredrick. You will not disobey your father!" Ulric exclaimed, his cheeks red and puffed with anger. "This is a great opportunity for our family. You know it is. Do you not care for you and your siblings well being? Think about your mother. Do you not see how time is taking a toll on her?"</i><br>
<br>
<i><br>
Fredrick gave his mother and twin siblings a look of sympathy. He felt his chest ache and his mind and soul fight against what he was about to say next. "Yes, Father... I understand." He sighed glumly."</i><br>
<br>
<br>
<b>~End of Flashback~</b><br>
<br>
<br>
29 year old Fredrick leaned back against his desk chair, resting an arm over his eyes. He let his mask fall for a brief moment before placing it back on, his expression turning hard as stone.</div>
