Authors: Eagle Lady
Aguilus came immediately to her rescue. “What is it little sister? You came to see me. Tell me why, please?” The squire nudged her face up drawing her long golden tresses back from her elfin face and smiled into her eyes.
“Marie, my maid, said that you would not sleep tonight, that you had to stay awake all night in the chapel by yourself.” Jaydene paused and waited for confirmation. After receiving a nod from her brother, she continued. “I thought that you would be lonely so I brought you Millie to keep you company.” The toy doll was thrust into Aguilus’ face. “The night is very long,” she clarified with a knowing nod. “Millie can’t speak but she will listen to all your secrets and never tell,” the little girl confided.
Aguilus stared at his sibling, speechless. He didn’t know if he felt like laughing or crying at his sister’s offer, emotion clogged his throat. In the end his father came to his aid.
“Aguilus is overcome with your offer, child.” The Earl hugged his daughter to him, “It is very thoughtful of you.”
“Thank you, Jaydene.” Aguilus took the proffered toy; it was patently obvious that the doll’s clothing had been stitched by his sister. The girl beamed at him happily. He would rather jump from the castle battlements than hurt or disappoint her. Aguilus stuffed the doll inside his tunic and looked apologetically at his father. He was probably the first aspiring knight that went to his vigil accompanied by a toy doll.
But the Earl nodded his approval at his son, his black eyes glittering with more than the reflected light of the candles. Without another word Roydon led the way from the tower chamber carrying his daughter in his arms and followed by his son.
