A little maid name Briget had seen Celeste with Darcy and that little maid reported back to her master, Aston. "Sir," she told him, her Irish accent strong, "I saw her, your girl, Miss Celeste. She was kissin' Mr. Dartagnan. I asked the maid, Kara, at Mr. Dartagnan's manor and Kara told me that Miss Celeste is Mr. Dartagnan's mistress, sir." She paused for a moment and then continued, "I thought you should know, sir."
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Celeste did not really know why she had been called to Aston's manor that night. She did not know what the little maid Briget saw or was told. She didn't even know Aston had a maid name Briget, because he had so many. She wore a gold and pink brocade gown and her dark hair down around her as she walked into Aston's manor. She heard something smash which made her stop dead in her tracks for a moment. She then continued on, into the manor. She finally found Aston and she stopped in the doorway. "Aston?" she said, her voice as sweet as always, "What's wrong?"

Aston could not believe what he was hearing--Celeste. HIS Celeste. His vampiress--was Darcy's mistress? "Get out--"Aston told his servant as he asked her to fetch Celeste for him. But Aston had some emotions to stir out. As soon as the maid left the room,Aston sat down in a chair and gave out a loud angry scream. He had never felt the more betrayed! He stood up as he grabbed anything he could find as he threw it against the wall. He was in the uttermost pain as his heart broke in torment. How could Celeste do this to him? How could she?! When Aston finally stopped throwing things,he sat upon the ground and he wept. He cried and cried--calling out Celeste's name.
*******************************
Aston then heard footsteps and looked up to see Celeste. As much as he was happy to see her,he was still betrayed. Aston then stood up and wiped his eyes. He did not look at her. "My maid has told me that she has seen you kissing Dartagnan. Is this true?"Aston's eyes were cold and angry.

Briget had gotten Celeste, as Aston had asked. As he turned to her, she saw his eyes were cold and angry. "My maid has told me that she has seen you kissing Dartagnan. Is this true?" Celeste's eyes widened. She had been found out. "She did, did she?" she said. She kept her face calm and reposed for the time being. |

Aston now turned away from Celeste--he had never been more angry within his life--how could she be the mistress to Darcy when she indeed loved him?! Aston then replied,"Yes,she did--and she is my most trusted maid so she would not lie to me."Aston now looked to Celeste and gripped her arm,telling her in his most angry voice,"Now tell me,are you Darcy's mistress?"

Aston cried out in agony as she admitted that she was his mistress. Aston then looked down to her and asked,"Why?! Why did you not tell me this when we met? You said you loved me! Now,is that a lie just like you have lied to me about being Darcy's mistress?"Aston's eyes swelled up with tears,he loved her but this broke his heart.

Aston now understood why she had to protect him from her secret--Aston now bent down to her level and took her face in his hands as she asked her,"So,you do love me? No lies between us?"Aston's eyes now were in tears,he loved Celeste so much and could not bear to lose her--not ever again. How he hated that she was a courtesan! Why couldn't she just be his and his alone?

The new tears that were in Celeste's eyes overflowed just before Aston took her face. She looked up at him when he held her face in his hands. "So,you do love me? No lies between us?" "Yes," she said, her voice thick from crying, "I love you and only you. There are no lies between us at all. If you cannot see that perhaps I should go." More tears came to her eyes and spilled over. |

"No..no,please don't go..please.."Aston then covered Celeste's face in kisses as he whispered and pulled her close to him."I'm sorry..I'm so sorry for being so harsh upon you--I just--I felt so heartbroken when I found out that you were Darcy's mistress--I thought that you didn't love me--can you ever forgive me?"

Aston then kissed her lips softly as he whispered,"I understand that you are a courtesan--I understand you have to lie to men to get to believe that you love them. I understand. I know that you love only me--but how am I going to face Darcy now that I know this? I can always forgive you--just don't fall in love with someone else."

"I understand that you are a courtesan--I understand you have to lie to men to get to believe that you love them. I understand. I know that you love only me-- "And will always love only you." Celeste corrected. "but how am I going to face Darcy now that I know this? "Pretend you do not know." she said, "Act like you never found out." " I can always forgive you--just don't fall in love with someone else." She stroked his cheek with her fingers. "That would never happen, Aston." she told him, "I will love only you until the end of time." She kissed his lips softly. She laughed weakly. "You know," she whispered, "My father didn't like you very much when we first met. I knew I was in love with you and would always love only you from the moment I saw you. He said I was rushing into things. I think he didn't want anyone to have his youngest daughter. He finally gave in, after I convinced him that I loved you and it was true love." |

Aston laughed softly to Celeste as he replied,"In all fairness,Celeste,I never liked your father at first--he seemed to scold me every time that I walked by with you--but he also tried to set me up with your sister--but I would not have it."Aston then laughed softly and kissed her softly upon the lips."I love you,Celeste.."

"In all fairness,Celeste,I never liked your father at first--he seemed to scold me every time that I walked by with you--but he also tried to set me up with your sister--but I would not have it." "With Oceane? Really?" Celeste did not know that. She had never heard that her father had tried to set Aston up with Oceane before. Of course, Aston looked like he was thirty and Celeste was only eighteen when she met him so she could see why her father tried to set Oceane up with him. She kissed his lips lightly. "I love you,Celeste.." "And I love you, Aston. I hope you do not forget that." She kissed him again, this time with a little more passion. |
