When you arrived in this area, trying to fight for us, that was the moment that I lost my heart. That was the beginning of me, and there can be no me without you, my Lord.
With your tartan trew and the colors of your family, I was ensnared in that magic. You look magnificent in red, blue, and gold, my love.
Truly magnificent, but you look better naked above me.
Whether it be because of the situation, or the fact that when you touch me, I can’t think, all I know is that my Lord, I love thee.
And I forever will.
I love thee so much, that I can’t imagine not being by your side for the rest of my life.
It is my fondest wish to always serve you, and to make you as happy as I can.
I feel remorse for the mess my desires and love have caused you.
I meant Ceit no ill. Fate just had other plans for you than her. That is the bottom line. I was born for you, and I cannot be without you.
I swear upon my breast that it is circumstances beyond my control. We are here now, together, and she is not.
If I saw you truly happy with her, I would quietly back away, but I know your heart.
You don’t love her.
You never have.
That arranged marriage was of convenience, not passion and love. I know because when I come to your bed, I see exactly what you crave and need. I am yours, and you are mine for that reason.
That passion is me, my Lord.
I am what you need.
So, if you want me to leave, and never to return so you may go back to your wife and unborn child, just give me the order.
I will obey.
I’ll always obey you.
I know that my family is beneath yours, and I shouldn’t dare to even gaze upon you with my desires, but they are there, and this letter is to declare them.
Decide, my Lord.
I will abide by your decision, and hold fast to it. I know deep down we were meant to be, and had the circumstances been different, nothing else would matter. Tell me what it is that you want.
You only have to ask me to do it. I would give you my heart upon a platter if you asked for it.
Who do you want, and then, I can have peace either in your arms, or as far from you as I can be?
I know there can’t be two loves of your life, and I know you have to make that decision. I love you enough to let you go if that is your wish, but...
There can only be one.
And I pray that it’s me.
Forever yours, no matter what you decide.
