A/N Oh my GOD!!! Is this an update??? I was figuring on having this story almost finished by this time but right now, it will be SPRING before The Winter Visitor is done. I know this is short but I figured it was better then nothing. I'll be spending 6 hours in a car this weekend and then will be ensconced in the middle of no where so hopefully there will be more updates soon.

"I think I'll go to bed." Said Mia
"Very well darling, good night." Mia left them alone as Joseph took a seat next to Clarisse on the bed.
"Are you alright?"
"Yes, of course."
"No you're not, I can see it in your eyes." Clarisse sighed.
"You don't miss much do you?"
"Not when it concerns you. Now what really happened?"
"We never saw the storm. Mia and I got separated, I got thrown and the horse bolted. We then found shelter."
"And?"
"And I have never been so terrified in my life. Its true you know."
"What is?"
"That when you think you are about to die, your life flashes before your eyes." She snuggled closer to Joseph. "Right before we found the cabin we were both ready to give up."
"But you didn't."
"No we didn't, though at the time it seemed to be our only option. I don't want to speak on it anymore. It's over and done with."
"Very well." Joseph gently placed a kiss on her forehead. "Good night and sleep well my dear." He quietly closed the door behind him. The palace was soon silent and outside the wind continued to blow crisp and cold.

As recommended, Clarisse spent the next day off her feet but work never stopped so she signed papers and went over various documents all day. Mia decided to take a look around her future home.
In all honesty, Mia was soon bored. There was nothing really of interest on the top floors so she ventured downstairs. And right into Charlotte.
"Oomph! Oh geeze, sorry Charlotte."
"Quite alright your Highness."
"Aw, come on, don't call me that."
"Very well, Princess."
"Try again...."
"Mia."
"Better! Now that wasn't so hard was it?"
"Very funny. What are you up to?"
"Nothin' really, just exploring, looking for things about the past Renaldis'"
"Well enjoy. Stay out of trouble or your grandmother will be after my blood." Charlotte started up the stairs. "And if its information you want, I'd try asking Tessa."
