Just so you know, before you begin reading this prologue to the story; THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO CHARACTER BASHING HERE! I won't bash anyone to make Naru look good or anything. Btw Thanks for the comment Rebs, ur one of the best girls I know. I also chose this pairing because I needed a slightly airhead mischievous blonde and a cool Earl. Sorry for the disturbance.

Prologue

.

.

A smile, not very pleasant, curled his lips. 'Had I not been in possession of a large fortune, you wouldn't have married me, would you, Naru?'

.

The new Lady Uchiha is all about fashion, frivolity, mischief and outings that the Earl began to wonder whether she had indeed only married him for his grand wealth and status.

.

.

'It is not that, my lady! It is the necklace!'

.

.

The Viscount stared at him.'Concerns my sister?' he repeated. 'What the devil-?'

.

'It's you, is it?' he said, a certain kindling in his eyes, and a brooding note in his voice. 'You, and my sister!'

.

'Yes, and I'm dashed well going to tell Uchiha what sort of May-game you've been playing with, my buck!'

.

.

And now, Naru dared not to tell him tthe truth. . .

What with concern over his wife's heart and pocket, sorting out her brother's scrapes, trying to prevent his cousin-in-law's eloping, clandestine meetings, heartbreak, business and family members and gossip, it was no wonder that the much-tried Earl almost missed an opportunity to smooth the path of true love in his own marriage. . .

. . .romance with all the trimmings. . .
