It had been six months and seven days since Will had left Corqian kneeling in the grass. Six long, lonely and cold months; as soon as they had arrived at Cair Paravel William had informed her that her family wasn’t going to know of her because they might try and interfere with his plans. Will not caring about anything anymore, now just a walking shell agreed numbly before being escorted to her new chambers. They weren’t thankfully with William but they were just down the hall from his and she had on many nights been summoned to his bed. Though they were not officially married yet William could care less, he simple told her “We will be anyways, besides you weren’t married to that creature” and Will would simply go deeper into her hole of depression at the mention of Corqian.
It was only recently that William had announced their marriage, it was to be in one week and the engagement party was to be in four days, so of course they a lot of preparation. Unfortunately Will had no one on her side, when she had arrived at Cair Paravel she had learned quickly that no one knew the William that she did. They thought him a god, a caring, compassionate man who any woman would be lucky to marry. Good then why don’t they marry him? Will thought as she was awoken from her deep sleep by her maid Luca, a dwarf who worshiped William as much as everybody else but Will still considered her, her friend.
“Go away Luca” she muttered burying her head in her pillows and pulling her covers over her head like a child.

Luca took a deep breath as she hustled up the stairs, she caught her breath as she rounded the corner of the castle, he gowned pulled up by her hands to keep her from tripping. Since 6 months ago Luca had been ordered to keep an eye on Will for her lord. He commanded her to go with her and aid her in her everyday activities but truly keeping an eye on her was the main reason. Luca finally got to Will’s front door, she entered without even knocking knowing she was still asleep. She only rolled her eyes and grabbed for Will’s bed, fighting her to get out.
“O you poor lass, your breaking me heart, ye know it’s a sunny beautiful day out and here ye be laying in bed with your head under the covers. Come on girl, it’s a new day and you know we have a lot to do to prepare for the engagement party and your wedding. O I can see it now, you walking down the isle of the church, your beautiful dress flow’en, O it brings tears to me eyes. Reminds me of me own wedding.” Luca wiped the tears from her eyes quickly then got back to work, she pulled the covers off in one great pull, her mighty dwarf frame wasn’t fast but it was stout and powerful.
“Young lady I swear by the Dwarven Gods, if you don’t cooperate I will dress you myself, like a child. And don’t think I can’t do it, I got the spirit of a young lass.” Luca said with a stern voice, however Luca was a softy, even for dwarfs she was a lover. She cared for everyone in the Castle like they were her own child, she was old enough to be. Especially Will, since her arrive she had tried to cheer her up, but it was to no avail. Something was troubling her and Luca couldn’t put her foot on it.
“Ok lass, today I need your help in the market place. So will ye help me?” Luca walked over to Will’s dresser and pulled out a beautiful gown, placing in on the bed she walked out.
“I’ll be waiting for ye out in the hall.”

Will felt Luca’s grip on the blanket as she tugged, Will half-heartedly tugged back however at the mention of her wedding she fiercely ripped the blankets back and held them in a death grip over her head. She hated anything that had to do with her wedding, even Luca if she even brought it up; and by now Luca should know that the mention of it pissed Will off, apparently she didn’t care. She quickly sat up in a huff when in a great show of strength Luca ripped off the covers completely. Nodding but glaring at the dwarf as she left Will reluctantly got out of bed and gazed at the blue gown[/b][/u] that Luca had laid out. It was beautiful to say the least, sighing Will put it on and fastened her cloak around her before walking out the door to meet Luca. She hadn’t put any jewelry on because for one she hated showing off that she now had money and two William hated it when she didn’t wear the gifts he constantly showered her with in attempt to buy her love. As soon as she left the room she froze in anger, there standing outside her door waiting with Luca was William[/b][/u]. As soon as he saw her a smile came upon his face as he walked towards her arms opened for an embrace. “My dear, you look lovely.” he said, sounding so sincere and pulling her into and embrace which Will didn’t return; she didn’t buy any of his fake kindness. Pulling out of their embrace he quickly stole a kiss from her and when trying to deepen it Will bit his lip. He pulled back with a cry and she saw a flash of anger cross his face as he glared at her, the true William appeared, but just as fast as it came it disappeared as he gave a small laugh. “Feisty this morning” he said and just to get back at her he squeezed her bottom, which he knew she hated. She hated it when he touched her; giving her one last triumphant look he wrapped his arm around her before turning to Luca. “So what’s on the agenda for today Luca? You ladies doing any wedding arrangements?”

Luca bit her lip when she saw Will come out of her room in her stunning dress, she turned about and held her breath. “O lass you have a beautiful figure, you make me think of my old days.”
However when Lord William, Luca bowed low as he arrived just up the stairs. She watched as he came in close and kissed Will on the lips. Though she bit her lip when Will did the same to William. She pulled back and watched, her heart jumped, “O dear.” But for a moment she stayed her and even saw a little displeasure in her masters eyes, hate even then it was gone. Luca quickly turned her attention back to her master.
“My lord, I need my Lady for the preparations for your wedding and engagement party. There is good and drink that need to be prepared, as for flowers and decorations. Please my Lord her help would be most valuable.
Lord William only nodded and went back down stairs and to his business. Luca breathed a breath of relief, then turned to Will.
“O my little lass come we have a long day ahead of us and we need to head to the market, then the flower and décor shop, then the tavern. It will be a long day, best get started now, besides you have gotten quite pale, we should get some sun in those cheeks, like the first day you came here.”
Luca turn towards the stairs and started walking down them, heading towards the kitchen to grab her bags and coin.

Will stood there her eyes on the ground as the other two talked; but while they talked of her wedding she was somewhere else, her thoughts like they had so many times in the past six months went back to Corqian and the love they shared; and then just as quickly as the good memories came back so did the ones of that fateful day, however just before Will was about to break down, Luca’s voice broke her thoughts. Slowly her eyes drifted up from the ground to the dwarf woman and nodded. She waited in the foyer for Luca while she got her purse and then they were off. Walking about, making wedding preparations that Will had no interest in whatsoever. To make matters worse, everywhere she went she thought she saw Corqian, that was the hard part. She would see his reflections in windows, his voice singing softly would float by her ears, she would catch a glimpse of him walking around a corner; but none of them were him, they were just her imagination torturing her on what she had lost and her eyes were showing her what hell she was going to be living the rest of her life.
