I explained to you that in France, a “hotel particulier” was a vast and luxurious multiple-stores townhouse built to be inhabited by the members of the same family. And in the last few centuries, many of these houses had become official national monuments and were open to public access. “Well… Most of the time”, I added with a wink.
You laughed and walked away to admire the garden.
Most of the area was surrounded by a few ranges of trees, but one side was adjacent to the large 16th century house through a brick terrace, with small sets of stairs leading to the various French doors. It was gorgeous…
Which is exactly the word you used to express your delight when you turned to me with that radiant smile that I had become addicted to.
I grinned at the sight, and I was walking towards you when you suddenly brought a hand over your chest and you eyes widened in surprise.
“Oh my God, Madam, what are you doing here? I begged you the other day not to come. It is far too dangerous. Are you not aware of the tragic consequences if the guards found you here? A musketeer… Secretly meeting with the Queen of France! You would be arrested, and sent to the Bastille’s prison… And then, you would be executed!”
There, you raised your hand to your forehead in an overdramatic gesture.
“Oh noooo… You… Beheaded!… I could not bear it, and I would die of a broken heart!”
I watched, both dumbfounded and amused by your little act, and only when you pretended to faint and fall to the ground did I rush to you to catch you in my arms.
“Your Majesty!… Are you alright?”
You stood up again and gave me a weak nod, keeping the pretense of the game, but I could see the sparkle in your eyes.
I suddenly drew away and bowed before you.
“I do not fear for my life, my Queen, for I am your humble servant. And if death must take me tonight, then I shall give my last breath with a happy heart… For your Majesty will have granted me with a last kiss…”

Oh I hope they aren’t going to be apart for too long! Thanks for the post. You 2 are doing a fantastic job with this!
Madam, for your Bette, my Tina will climb the highest mountain, swim the deepest ocean and cross the warmer deserts! For you have depicted the most tender, loving and incredibly romantic character there is. Can I really confess to being jealous of a fictitious character! Well you what I will…..I confess I am jealous of Tina! There is about a million places in your letter where my heart has jumped and until the very last line my heart was pounding as hard as the hearts of these two, were! This is how outstanding this piece was! You are unbelievably talented and I thank you too for agreeing to co-write with me! xxxx
That was incredibly awesome. And that was before I even reached the love scene. I love the role play in the garden you can only be that silly with the people you love easily able to let your guard down without no hesitation. Wow I don’t know how I’m going to go on until the next post. You both are doing a wonderful job. Can I just say Kword this is the best chapter you have written and that’s why it was probably the hardest.
Your letter was a full romantic circle! In Paris and in love!
Absolutely magnificient!!!! Both of you continue to amaze me with your writing and this letter just took my breath away with its love, the playfulness in the garden completely and totally laced with love, gallantry and the wondrous romance of a time period gone by. Can’t you just see Bette in one of the uniforms of the Musketeer emblazoned with the crest of the House of D’Artagnan, with the sword of her father and his hat doused while in a low bow to her Queen, her Royal Highness Christina. Beautiful chapter. Can hardly wait for more because you continue to outdo the last letter. This story must somehow be made into a book for all to enjoy. It would be a number one best seller. Truly beautiful love story. Thanks for posting.
Thud!…. *_* Kword… Even though I got bump in the head after hit the floor because of reading this, I would be still happily smile afterward! … :-D This one is simply blow me away! Those cute silliness of the role play and the love declaration inside the private garden… And the playfulness of Tina which is so endearing yet so romantic when left Bette the sketch-which maybe will become the first art in display inside the Bette Porter gallery? ;-)… OMG.. I would read this again later during the day, and looks like I would never get tired to re-read this letter! I guess Tina “herself” would treasure it more ;-) and about the tips of the places in Paris… Thanks! It’s inspirational! We’ll have one route under the title of this story – “epistolary route” … Let’s just hope that nobody is being arrested for breaking the rule by jumping over to closed area :-p lol … This story is getting better and better … And again, you two fabulous writers are really amazing!! :-) you two made me wondering: is romantic part of your genes or what…?? ;-) Looking forward to the next letter… :-)
