Princes Elizabeth Taylor's pov:
I was up in town with James, he wanted to take me somewhere and show me something. We stopped by a lovely large Castle. We got out of the car and I walked in following him, He stares at me. He begins to talk "I have brought you here because this is the place we are to live after we are wed." I looked again through the rooms, "This place?" He nods "But we never agreed on where we would live, had we?"I say he replies with "I just thought we would bare our children here, so considering there is a load of rooms may as well use them." "And there is something else, a present if you will. You hadn't gotten it from me since I had proposed so here you are your Highness," He says handing me a ring. Placing it on my hand I just glare at it, it is so pretty, no wonder men like him capture women like how he use to.
We both were walking around the rooms, His echoing voice filled the room, asking me something "May I ask you something?" I reply with a nod "Why is it, you so against the idea of love, and being connected in that manner?" "Well, I-." The thought was a moment, "I guess being brought up with the family I had. Only my parents shared that sort of affection for one another but when I or my elder brother would go to The Castle it wasn't the same, there was no show of any sort of affection toward any member of Taylor or Knight There was no room for love of any kind, considering it was a Knight/Taylor family I had." I continued talking "I guess I never wanted to get crossed in the fire of being hurt because with love it's always a game, and people always seem to lose."
"You never experienced it, Lizzie. Not till me." James mutters slowly speaking from my ears, I felt that. I slightly laugh at that, "You seem very sure of that James." He instantly replies "It's because you are everything, & our my everything." "Hmm." I reply, He mutters "Shall we christen the house?" I knew what he meant, "You sly fox."
I found a pool, outside by the steps down to it. On the edge I heard his breath behind me "I remembered your father's parents live by a pool, thought you would want this as a part of the house because you grew up with it." I smiled and kissed his cheek "Thank you James it's lovely. I won't be homesick." I hated to question him I leaned my body against his chest "But I worry, is this not too big for us James?" He grins looking at me "Darling we will fill this place with children soon enough, won't feel so lonely."
"What if I can't have children? My mother previously had issues with being pregnant with my brother." He held me and mutters in my ear "Hun you'll be fine, we will be fine, Elizabeth are not your mother." I shyly replied to him "I just don't wish for the same things to repeat itself for us."
I held on to him, just thinking. "When is the wedding do you know?" James mutters under his breath "My father wants it to be soon, they had spoken to your parents and are in agreement it is to be next fortnight." I say with a smile "So close." He speaks "Of course, I can't wait to be in bed with you and be joined-." "Yes, I understand," I didn't need him to finish that I knew what he meant.

I was in the living room by the sofa looking out on the terrace and Heard a carriage on its way to us, it was rather loud. I then heard footsteps on their way toward the Castle, I see Jasmine's face through the window. She plops down next to me eyeing me "I wish to talk to you about a matter."
"It is rather embarrassing Liz." "How so?" I ask she replies "I fell in love." "That's good no?" I suggest she tuts and shakes her head "It's with Benny Adams, he is a rake. how James used to be like, the things those men got up to." "He is a gentleman I am sure if you spoke to him he would stop like James did for me." "We might not be as lucky as some," Jasmine states, but we saw the brothers walking through the house, Lizzie pestered me to find him and speak to him. "Fine just to stop this ridiculous behavior from you." She laughed and Jasmine was on her way.
Jasmine Taylor's pov:
I went through the house of what would soon be my cousin's new house, I glared out to the garden and saw Benjamin muttering to himself. I closed my eyes taking a breath but then he spotted me dag, "Jasmine lovely to see you miss." "As I you. Sir." "What made you choose to come here and be with us sinners?" I laughed at that or tried to at least "Sinners sir?" He shrugged "Whatever we are we might be worse." "Hm" was my come back. "want to take a walk?" "I come to ask you something?" "O I am intrigued Mar'm." "Will you join me for a night? away from prying eyes sir?" He took a moment to respond "Why not, it sounds delightful." "what do you wish for us to do princess?" "Dinner, watching the stars, and my cousins have a cottage out from London with a pool if you are interested, their grandparents take holidays away so it would just be us, Sir." "I like what I hear let's start packing Jasmine." He says with a smirk.
