The sun light streamed in through the crack in her curtains, dragging
Clara from the restful sleep that she had been enjoying, and that she was
not yet ready to be disturbed from. She had been deep in a dream that
mimicked the lovely romance novel that she had been reading, one where
the hero simply swept the heroine off her feet and gave her the life that she
desired, and more love than she ever could have hoped for too.
It was the sort of love that she could only dream of.
The sort of love she had spent her whole life wishing for, only it
seemed quite unattainable in real life. The men in London did not seem to
match the heroes in her books…
“Ah, good morning, milady.”
Before a moroseness could settle over Clara as she was dragged from
the dream and into real life, her lady’s maid, Ruth, came to help her dress
for the day.
“Do I have anything planned today?” Clara asked with a yawn as she
rose to her feet.
Since her family had returned to London for the start of the social
Season two weeks ago, Clara’s days had centered around High Society
events to launch her second Season. Another whirlwind of balls and dances,
of talking to people she barely knew in the hope that she would be able to
dance with the right man who might seem good enough to court.
It was all so stifling. So exhausting. Clara much preferred her time in
the countryside where she did not have so many expectations weighing
down on her.
“You do not have anything on your calendar today, milady.”
Relief flooded through Clara. That meant she had a free day to spend as
she chose. She already knew that she would spend the afternoon visiting her
best friend, Lady Imogen Chambers, so she could gossip freely and get
some advice from the one person she knew would pass no judgement on
her, but until then there was only one room she wanted to be in…
“Wait, milady, where are you going?”
She halted, remembering that she was still in her night gown. The
excitement to get into her sanctuary almost overtook her completely. She
nearly ran right through the house in her night time clothing, which would
have been very awkward and embarrassing if she had been caught out by
anyone.
“Ah yes, I should dress,” Clara giggled. “But I am going to my art
room, so I do not want to wear anything which I can not mess up.”
She had stained one of her most expensive dresses when she was
younger, her mother’s favorite, because she could not stop herself from
painting, even when she was about to go to a dinner with a family she could
not even recall.
Clara had been in so much trouble and she’d had the rules of how she
was expected to behave, drilled into her from that moment. It was not a
mistake that she would make again.
