Almost, Completely His

Prologue

My Dearest,

London is dull without you, even more so than usual.

Breakfast in no longer entertaining without your jokes to start my day and walks around the park no longer hold any interest to me without you by my side.

And nevertheless, my nights are empty without you next to me. Everything seems to have lost its color and smell.

Father and I are on our way back to Spain for his tasks in London with your father are done. They spent hours in the study talking and arguing , of what I do not know.

I will surely miss the estate- your mother’s beautiful garden, your father’s mysterious library and the days we spent under the sun and away from peering eyes.

Your brother had kindly offered to mail this letter and stay in touch with me for when you write back.

I assume he doesn’t know the details of our entanglement... or he’s a very good actor.

Never had I assumed you and I would find happiness in one another. But I will carry your touch, kisses and eyes with me until you return.

I pray for your safety my love. For you to survive this nightmare that has taken you from me.

I will wait for you. I love you Arthur.

Come home to me for you’ve taken my heart with you.

Yours completely,

Celeste
