oooh... is she going to take the throne? is this some kind of foreshadowing? or knowing this, will alexander use her to become emperor?
She nodded to herself. Amelia heard people talking. They talked about how it would be possible for her House—for her—to claim the throne; all she needed was supporters, which the duchess knew had been gathering silently over the years. Especially when the current Crown Prince of Creador's incompetence became known after the scandal at the capital a few months ago.

"I did tell you I'm going to marry you," A familiar voice sent shivers down the duchess spine. "There's nothing wrong with kissing the woman I'm about to marry. " A pair of striking amber eyes unmounted his horse and approached her. "And these gifts? I chose them with you in mind. It hurts me that you think of my gifts that way." Alexander Clement bowed his head with his palm against his chest. "I've been aching to see you, Duchess Florence, my love."

Ah, at last, they met again!
"It's been a while, my duchess," Alexander leaned closer and whispered. His scent enveloped Amelia, and she inhaled sharply. Her eyes narrowed at the bright amber eyes that always seemed to gaze at her, full of emotions.
AMELIA, Duchess of House Florence
