'' I am getting married.'' Annalise looked at her beautiful face in the mirror. She cupped her cheeks as if she could not believe that the wedding taking place in the duchy was hers, a commoner.
''Yes, Miss. You and the duke are getting married. '' Her personal maid stood behind her and clipped on the necklace before dropping her hands.
She then gushed out with excitement, ''My lady is the most beautiful bride in the world. I can see why the duke can never let his eyes off you. You are much more beautiful than the duchess.''
''Olivia, don't say that,'' Annalise warned her maid as she continued admiring herself in the mirror.
''But..'' Olivia wanted to talk, but the seriousness in Annalise's eyes made her cease her words.
''Yes, Miss.'' She bowed her head.
''It's okay, Olivia. I just want you to be careful as we will be living with the duchess from today. I don't want to put you in any trouble,'' Annalise sighed with a smile.
