Looking at yourself in the mirror you admired your own appearance to make sure you looked decent for the celebration

You were wearing a rather long black dress that reached down to your ankles and some heels to finish your clothing but you made sure not too look too formal or to dress too much, you weren't gonna be in the meeting anyways

A tug on your dress pulled you out of your staring making you look down just to see your Nephew Leon hugging your legs with a bright smile on his face. "You look so pretty Aunty" he beamed at you with his compliment

"Aren't you the most handsome man to exist?" You smiled down at his smaller figure before kneeling down to his height level

You planted a kiss on his chubby cheek with amusement and adoration in your eyes, watching him act all lovey in front of you

"Come on now cutie pie we have to leave now if we don't want to be late"

You grabbed Leon's small hand before walking alongside with him to the front door of the house you lived in to check if the others were ready to leave

Very soon after making sure that everyone was dressed suitably you soon hit the road with an excited feeling bubbling inside of all of you except for you...you felt a nervous sensation tingling inside of your guts yet you decided to ignore it, you just took it as a slight stomach ache

The drive was long since the village you lived in was a tad bit far away from the city where the ship would sail across the ocean. You never sailed on a ship before so this trip was something you were excited for but also quite nervous

Like mentioned your brother was the one in charge of the business so you were mostly in the background taking care of the household and other stuff your brother needed assistance with. Staying hidden from the public was something you actually liked it spared you from even more work

"Father what will this meeting be about? Why are we going?" Matthew asked your brother with curiosity written on his innocent face as he sat in the back with you and watched his father drive across the rather bumpy roads

"Well its mostly going to be about some fields and land but its nothing to concern any of you so in the mean time the two of you will be good and stay with aunty" your brother explained with a rather stern yet tender tone as he eyed his sons through the rear view mirror before focusing back on the road

You couldn't help but smile at the two children nodding with a determined look on their innocent faces causing you to just give in and place a kiss on their heads, they were just too cute for you to handle

Finally after a three hour drive you finally made it to the large city in the country and almost immediately you were fascinated by the views the city offered. The buildings looked rich and elegant with lights shining all over the city which amazed you a lot

The drive lead to a nearby bridge where a huge ship could be seen waiting on the surface of the ocean while rocking gently from the small waves hitting its walls which amazed you. It looked so magnificent yet it also gave you a small fear since this was your first time ever getting on any ship

You and your family members stepped out of the car and were immediately met with an elderly man approaching you with a gentle smile on is face as he raises his hands to shake your brothers which he gladly accepted with an equal smile

Your brother introduced the man as one of the squires of the city that owned some stables and was mostly involved in the fields and horse business

"It's very nice to meet a beautiful young lady like you" the elderly man kindly complimented your appearance with the same handshake he gave your brother. "I would love to invite you to my stables one day, your father used to tell me all about your love for animals" the man declared with a happy tone to himself as he spoke to you

"I would love to visit someday Sir, thank you!" You smiled back at the man as your minded drifted off to the thoughts of your fathers past memories with you, the squire indeed was right, you were very happy to be in the presence of animal's

Your father used to own some horses which you absolutely loved, you were the one who spend the most time with them and took very good care of them. With all the time you spend with the horses you soon taught yourself how to ride

"Please call me John! Now why don't we hop on now? It's bad to waste any more of our precious time"

The squire John declared with a laugh leaving his mouth as he pinched the cheeks of the young boys in front of them before leading you to the ship to board

As you stood in front of the ship while the one worker lowered the staircase for you to board you felt the same nervous feeling build up inside of your stomach casing you to hesitate to board as everyone else hopped on

Your brother and nephews hopped on easily but you just stood there with a nervous and hesitant expression on your face making you stand there on the stairs with your heart beating against your chest right before a warm presence evolve behind you closely. "Just how long are you going to stand there like some damn statue? Move"

A rather cold voice pulled you out of your nervous thoughts of dilemma causing you to flinch before turning your head to see who the voice belong to

There stood a familiar looking man with a bandaged face looking down at you with a stern glance in his one steel eye however...as you looked up you could clearly see his pupil get larger and his eye slightly widening at the sight of you

You took a simple step back from the close proximity between the two of you with your mind wandering off again...why did this man seem so familiar to you?

Thats when you remembered that this was the same man you had seen on the roads of your home village a few days back as you had left work to go back home

Your face flushed slightly at the sudden memory before you felt the man nudge you slightly to the side to hop on to the ship

You had expected the man to just walk off due to his demeanor however to your complete surprise he turned around to face you with his hand reached out to

You looked a tad bit confused causing the man to tilt his head with his glare hardening making you realize what he was doing with the gesture.

"Oh!" You whispered under your breath after realizing, your hand reached out towards his before your hands met each other which gave you the same sensation like the night you met. His cold skin firmly combined with your warm one

"Thank you-"

Right as you stepped on the surface of the ship and was about to thank him for his kind gesture he seemed to let go of your hand and had walked away to the other side of the ship. You frowned slightly but shook your head with a small smile forming on your face at his gesture, finding it rather cute

But that all got pulled away as you saw Leon run up to you with open arms and chocolate all over his face
