Prologue
Several years ago...
"Griainne, I was sent to inform you from my lord that your husband Diarmuid ua Duibhne was killed earlier today" a Knight of Fianna said as I simply stared at him in shock outside the castle with a hand rested on my large swollen stomach.
Denial was the first thing I felt as I refused to believe the lies of the news of my husband death, in fact it was impossible since Diarmuid only had one weakness unless...
I had a suspicious feeling about something surrounding this story so I ask the Knight to explain to me what had happened which he did leaving no detail out.
He explained how Lord Fionn, my former betrothed and the lord of the all the knights of Fianna and Diarmuid went into the woods to hunt when they came upon a wild boar in which Diarmuid gotten injured,Lord Fionn had tried to everything to save and even went as to get the special water nearby to heal his wound but unfortunately when he got back he was already dead.
Learning about this I immediately knew right away what happened.
Lord Fionn must have still held a grudged about my eloping with Diarmuid and had finally successfully killed him.
I knew it was too good to be true for us to be easily forgiven and live peacefully together.
Feeling warm tears fill my eyes I quickly thanked the Knight and collapsed to the floor.
"Forgive me Diarmuid for what I have done to you, if only I hadn't given you that potion then you wouldn't have been dishonored as a honorable knight and killed." I murmured as I place a hand on our unborn child.
"Most people in Fianna thought when we ran away from Lord Fionn that you had encanted me with your love spot of a mole beneath your eye but it wasn't true..., I had truly loved you so much that I had no choice but to make you fall in love so we could be together instead of marrying a man twice as old as I and who I have no feelings whatsoever..." I said outloud looking up upon the bright blue sky.
I could visual Diarmuid standing in front of me with his hand held out and a kind smile on his face as he behold me with so much I love that I couldn't help but feel guilty for forcing him to love me.
I place my hands in my face and wept.
"If we ever meet again Diarmuid ua Duibhne in a different life I would seek forgiveness from you for my horrible act!?" I proclaimed through tears.
