Mr. Sinclaire's POV
I had a sleepless night. I couldn't take Clara off my mind. Life has its own way. It was playing funny games with me. I have no idea when am I going to loose patience but I promise I'll try to be the best player.
No matter how hard is the catch or I constantly fall or loose I'll still stand up to fight. I'll show life my ambitions are much more higher than hers.
Lying on the bed feeling helpless staring at the ceiling. Deep inside I knew the Duke has something fishy on his plate. That's the only reason he wants to marry Clara. Once we reach Edgewater tomorrow I'll let Clara know the plans and together we'll find out what's behind the scenes.
I was trying to find some sleep but sleep was no where to be found. I hope Clara is sleeping, she already has gone through a lot today. Hope my letter made her relex. Finally I wasn't able to sleep so I got up and opened the window so that some fresh air would rush in. But with that air rushed in many thoughts.
What if the Duke becomes successful? What if I loose my love? Is Clara safe? Will Mr. Harper be successful to run along with the plan? Will I be able to see Clara tomorrow?
It was so much at a time I just felt lonely and lost. I closed my eyes shut and sat down clutching my head in my hands. Burdened with so many thoughts I don't know when sleep took over.
Was I sleeping or dreaming I don't know. It was dark everywhere around. I could just hear Clara calling my name but she was nowhere in sight.
Suddenly I could feel someone trying to shake me may be to get my attention but I was already wide awake and their was no one around so who was trying to shake me? Why?
All of sudden everything started to get blur. I tried to open my eyes but the sunlight forced me to shut it tight again. So it was a dream. After a few seconds trying to adjust with the light I realized that I was still in my townhouse bedroom and with mind full of thoughts I fell asleep on the floor below the open window.
I could feel someone's hand on my shoulder. Turning my face I froze to see Clara kneeling besides me trying to wake me up.
