Chapter sixteen: missing him dearly
"That's wonderful Paris! Did you tell you father and Hector?" Andromache asked smiling. Briseis looked at Helen then to her stomach. Why did she like crying? There was something wrong.
It had been five days and their was no sign of the Greeks, everyone was relieved that they lived and their was a great feasting for the great Apollo that night, to thank him for keeping Briseis and Hector safe, for keeping Troy safe and most of all the child that Helen was having.
Paris took Helen into his arms and gave her a hug then kissed her belly. "Helen, thank you for the gift" he whispered feeling ready for a child as ever. Helen smiled. For she knew this was the only thing that the Troy's were happy about after she came.
"Don't you wish you have a love like that?" a man whispered into Briseis ear as she sat on a chair looking at the couple. Briseis looked to her side and saw Aeneas. Aeneas, a noble was a friend of Paris. He had always wanted to marry Briseis so he could be a part of the royal family. But then Briseis became a priestess, he was going to give up then she was kidnapped and later returned. He thought it was the best time as any to get Briseis to be is wife and make him rich.
"Aeneas don't scare me like that" Briseis said trying to move away from his question for she didn't want answer.
"my dearest Briseis I do not wish to scare you I hope you know that" he said as he put his hand to her shoulders and put his lip closer to her ears and whispered to Briseis "Do you know that if you would be my wife, I would love you like Paris loves the great Helen of Troy"
Briseis eyes widened she looked at Aeneas. "I'm sorry but I could never love you as Helen of Troy loves Paris" she said before getting up to leave. But Aeneas took a hold of her arm.
"sweet Briseis don't think I will give up that easy" he said and kissed her hand before he let go. Briseis was shocked and ran off.
Briseis ran up to her room and fell in front of the window. She still tried to look for the tents and of all Achilles'. How much she missed him, how much she wanted him to make love to her, how much she wanted to be in his arms safe from everyone. Briseis couldn't take anymore of it. she put her head to her arms and cried.
The next day Hector came to her room and sat next to her. Briseis looked next to her and saw her cousin who was there when she wanted to tell her problems too. Her trusted cousin who wouldn't tell his wife about Briseis' problems unless she wanted them to be told.
"Briseis, you miss Achilles don't you?" Hector asked putting his arms around Briseis shoulders. She was freezing cold.
"yes, I do! Hector I know its wrong but I truly love him, and I want to be with him" Briseis sighed as she looked down feeling bad for feeling that way.
"Briseis, you know that missing him will not bring him right? I think its best too be joyous, for I do not think Achilles would like to know that his dear Briseis was sad." Hector said looking at Briseis.
"your right cousin..i'll try to be happy" Briseis said with a smile.
"good. Briseis I don't want to make you worry but has Aeneas spoken to you about marriage?" Hector asked Briseis. He knew of Aeneas plans and didn't want Briseis to marry him but it was up to his father about Briseis and whom she marries.
"yes, he said that he wanted to make me his wife. But please cousin. Don't make me marry him, I do not love him and I know he wants nothing to do with me but gold" Briseis said worried that he had made plans for her to marry Aeneas.
"do not worry, Briseis for he has asked me to let him marry you but I told him it was up to you and he would have to ask my father about it." Hector said but added something. "Try not to be alone with him. I don't trust that man"
Briseis nodded and Hector walked out. She couldn't help but feel better about what he said and still worry about Aeneas for he still thought Briseis was a virgin and once he made love to her, she would have to marry him even if she didn't want too.
