Chapter 1
Christine knocked on Raouls study door with shaky hands, she was nervouse of his reaction to the fact that she was two months pregnant and they had not even had there wedding yet. Come in Raoul said through the door and Christine stepped inside the room was warm and toasty due to the roaring fireplace behind Raouls desk. Little Lotte what are you doing up so late you know that flue you caught won't heal itself.
Christine sighed and said Raoul there is somthing we need to disscuss. Raouls face fell and asked of course what do you need. Christine looked up into his eye and saw the genuine concern and love in them, somthing she felt she didn't deserve. Then she remembered the same look in another pair of eyes, golden with flecks of green.
Sadly though he was gone and because of her treachery the mob had killed him. Raoul had told her two nights after the fire that he had perished, Meg had given him the white mask as proof.
Christine shook her head and looked into Raouls eyes. She thought up a exuse and said I just miss my friends at the Opera house thats all.
Raoul held Christines hand in his and said don't worry Christine that life is far behind you, remember I will stay with you each night and each morning.
Christine smiled and said goodnight Raoul.
Raoul kissed her hand and said goodnight Little lotte.
Christine waited until she could hear Raoul snoring from the bedroom next to hers.
When she was sure the coast was clear she donned a traveling dress a wool cloak and packed her riding satchel.
When she got to the stable and had mounted her Mare Emerald she held a hand to her stomach and said if I had known you would be created I would not have chosen the easy way out.
As she rode off into the night she thought yet again I did not chose this at all he chose for me.
