The Double Blessing of 2285

The Double Blessing of 2285

Lord Albert Edward Howard, Duke of Kent

And

Lady Anastasia Christina Howard

Duchess of Northampton

No man could be more blessed in the year of 2284 into the year of 2285 when he receives the news that he is going to become a father twice in the same year.

Well, it happened to Lord Andrew Charles Howard, Fifth Duke of Norfolk Territory.

Lord Andrew Charles Howard isn't even 35 years old and he is already the father of three children, Lady Elizabeth, age 9 years old, Lady Samhain age 7, and Lord Anthony Christopher age 3.5 years old.

Lord Andrew Charles Howard is receiving a double blessing from the Almighty Father, Zeus who is the father of Eros and Aphrodite who are both the God and Goddess of Love.

Lady Karissa walks into Lord Andrew Charles Howard study at Beltane Manor and she looks at him and it is February 2285, and she looks at him and he looks up for his tedious paperwork and he asks " What is on your mind?"

"It's not what is in your mind that is bothering me! It is in your pants that does." Lady Karissa tells him.

"Whatever do you mean?" Lord Andrew Charles asks her.

"Come, Come, now. Don't play coy with me." Lady Karissa tells him.

"I have no idea what is bothering you?" Lord Andrew Charles tells her.

Lady Karissa hands him the ultrasound picture and he looks at it, " Another son for our son. You said you didn't want Lord Tony to be an only son."

"I stand by what I say. This son is due in September." Lady Karissa tells him.

"What name have you settled on our son?" Lord Andrew Charles asks.

"I am going to name this son, Lord Albert Edward Howard, I am getting tired of the same old recycled names you damn Howard's seem to use." Lady Karissa states.

"Valhalla forbid, Patrick, Frederick Charles, Andrew, William." Lady Karissa states, "At least your brother had the good sense to name his son, Lord David Frederick."

"Lord David Frederick Stafford is Lady Pauline's father." Lord Andrew Charles tells her.

"Don't you damn Howard's use any other names may I ask?" Lady Karissa asks.

"We use William, Thomas, Edward, Edwin, Charles,Frederick, and Patrick." Lord Andrew Charles states.

"I wasn't born when my great-great-great-grandfather settled here in 2159. My father told me that my great-great-great-grandfather named my great-great-grandfather after a gentleman named Philip Frederick William, and Lord John Carey named his son, Lord Philip and my great-great-great-grandfather named his son, Lord Frederick and they don't used the middle name of William." Lord Andrew Charles states.

"I have chosen the name Lord Albert after Prince Albert, husband of Queen Victoria and Edward, after their first-born, Prince Albert Edward." Lady Karissa tells him.

"I think it sounds very romantic and I know he will be a lot better than his damn father." Lady Karissa states.

"You are quite the comedian." Lord Andrew Charles tells her.

"I am glad that I entertain you, Lord Andrew Charles, because you are about the sorriest man on Star-Base 12." Lady Karissa tells him.

"Listen here. You carry your fertile ass somewhere else." Lady Karissa tells him.
