The worry of the beast was a thing of the past. The early days of spring now slipping away into the warmth of summer. Nessa took great delight in her world at this time, as her belly grew rounder and fuller with Burgoo's child, she grew more and more content to allow the beauty and peace of the villa to bathe her in happiness. A false security, perhaps. Little touched her from the outside world, it was if they existed in a fantasy of their own making. She spent her days with Saji and Lena, watching the younger girls at play. Burgoo and Cricket came and went, their stories of the world outside the villa seeming as if they came from a book and were not real, but a story weaved by a storyteller. Nessa was overly excited, as she had word from a cousin she had yet to meet, Aldria, her mother's sister's only child. She had married her Baron, and they were coming for a visit. The villa was turned upside down as it was prepared for the visit. No corner, no nitche left untouched by a cleaning rag. Saji, Lena, nor Cricket could calm her in her excitement as she supervised the servants and Gilda in preparing for this momentous occasion. The only to mar her excitement was that Charles was also to visit, she wondered how him, Burgoo, and Cricket would get along...Life was never dull at Du'Mont anymore, but secretly Nessa loved it...for once more, good or bad, Du'Mont had life....
