Lord Richard Edward Howard III and Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane Howard are second cousins as they share the same great-grandfather, Lord Charles Andrew Howard Senior and their father's are first cousins to each other.

Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane Howard is eldest child and daughter of Lord Andrew Charles Howard and Lady Karissa Elizabeth Ann Howard nee Lowell and Lord Richard Edward Howard III is the son of Lord Richard Edward Howard II and Lady Suzanne Elizabeth Howard nee Bell.

Lord Andrew Charles and Lord Richard Edward II father's are brothers to each other and they are both sons of Lord Charles Andrew Howard Senior who is the second son of Lord Frederick William Howard Senior.

The two children are only 16 months apart in age and they become inseparable at the age of 4 and 5 years old.

As they grow, Lady Suzanne brings her son to Beltane Manor to play with his second cousins, Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann and Lady Samhain and later on, Lord Anthony, Lord Albert Edward, Lady Anastasia, Lady Sophia Dorothea, and Lady Karissa Elizabeth Ann and sometimes his other second cousins, Lady Charlotte Victoria Maud, Lord Charles Andrew Howard IV, Lady Autumn Bridget and Lord David Frederick Howard.

Lord Richard Edward Howard III second cousin once removed is Lord David William Beck, because a second cousin once removed is a generation older than his generation, but his second cousin is Lord David William Beck III since they are born in the same generation.

A generation is defined within the same 20 to 30 year span, and many of Lord Charles Andrew Howard Senior's grandchildren and great-grandchildren were born between 2250 and 2295.

Three of Lord Charles Andrew Howard Senior's grandchildren were born in 2230 from 2245.

Lord Richard Edward Howard II and Lord Andrew Charles Howard are two of his grandsons who were born in that span and so were his great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren.

Lord Richard Edward Howard III and Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane Howard became inseparable and when Lady Elizabeth is separated from her second cousin, Lord Richard Edward Howard III she becomes uncontrollable, prone to outbreaks, and out hand, and the only one who can calm her is Lord Richard Edward Howard III.

Some say it takes a soul-mate to keep you calm and collective and Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane's soul-mate is her second cousin, Lord Richard Edward Howard III.

Lord Andrew Charles tells Lady Karissa " Father. Is partly the reason why Lady Elizabeth gets out of hand and control. "

"Father won't let me discipline our daughter." Lord Andrew Charles tells Lady Karissa.

"Your damn father isn't going to stop me from tanning the hide of Lady Elizabeth." Lady Karissa tells Lord Andrew Charles.

"Barbara is already complaining about Lady Elizabeth and how she throws temper tantrums and stomps her feet in rage, and she scares her little sister and brother." Lady Karissa states.

Lady Karissa looks at Lord Andrew Charles and he looks at her " What are we to do then, Karissa?"

"I will tell you what we are going to do? We are going to discipline her the way we see fit." Lady Karissa states.

"I have tried to stand her in the corner, take something away from her, but to know avail it doesn't do the trick, so we must try corporal discipline" Lady Karissa states.

"We could send her to her grandfather." Lord Andrew Charles tells Lady Karissa.

"Your father would continue to spoil and pamper her." Lady Karissa explains.

"We could separate her from her sister and brother and give her her own suite and nanny." Lord Andrew Charles states.

"Or we could give her own separate household out at Balmoral Estate." Lady Karissa tells Lord Andrew Charles.

Lord Andrew Charles looks at Lady Karissa and says " I think it is high time she has her own household with a nanny, cook, maid, and governess who can teach her what she needs to know."

Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane Howard is given her own household out at Balmoral Manor until 2285 and then she is moved to Norfolk Estate from 2285 until 2294.

While Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane Howard lives out between Balmoral and Norfolk Estate is where her second cousin, Lord Richard Edward III and she meets out in the garden under the watchful eye of her nanny, Zina.

Lady Elizabeth seems to be very content with her own household and even more so when Lord Richard Edward Howard III comes to visit her.

Lady Elizabeth starts to miss her sister, Lady Samhain, Lady Caroline Matilda, Lord Anthony, in 2285, and she had no idea that she has a new brother, Lord Albert Edward Howard and Lady Anastasia Christina Howard.

Lady Elizabeth hears the news via her grandfather, that she has a new brother and sister.

Lady Elizabeth Victoria Ann Beltane Howard didn't return to Beltane Manor until 2295 after her marriage to Lord Richard Edward Howard III for the birth of their first child together.
