Lots of time for things to go wrong in the meantime.

O.o Married, not engaged, and for quite a while too. Aww, that's sad. I think George is going to like the idea that he is already married about as much as he'll like the idea of her marrying the Duke. It seems neither one are going to be happy. <br /><br /> I'm kind of wondering if you rolled full house, lol There would be Georgia, Amara (who is also Griffin's ex), Griffin, and then the Duke, all living happily(?!) under one roof, haha Whatever the roll is, it appears to be an unhappy one right now. I hope that in the end, things work out okay for Georgia. <br /><br /> I have all sorts of questions, but I suppose only time will tell what the answers are. Like, why was Griffin so eager to have Amara stay with them? *is suspicious of his motives* And what happened to his promise to tell her everything she wanted to know when he came back? How does Ari fit into all of this? Wasn't Ari the one that led Georgia to the Duke in the first place? And so on, lol<br /><br /> Great story, I really enjoy reading it, and I can't wait to find out what happens next! =)Nirarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15253184399668018141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436869084648400373.post-38184560652808338102014-06-28T10:31:36.381-07:002014-06-28T10:31:36.381-07:00Oh what a tangled web you weave!

Jerk that rug out from under our feet one more time and my head might explode. <br /><br />So Griffin's business trips were because he's married already? Was he lying to Georgia about the family 'kind of adopting him?' Or did he mean that as a euphemism? Sorry, I can't go back and read the first part again without the second part coloring my views. (Well done!) And just what did he owe that family for? I have to admit I was suspicious when he said he owed this girls family money, but then said he could easily get a loan to buy the house.<br /><br />And then the duchess. (BTW- her story made me snort at one point, when after she mentioned that she was past 40 years and yet she was still the beautiful young princess. Aah! It went wonderfully with the type of woman I had already assumed she was. :D) Geez. A very steely woman isn't she? And quite the impossible situation for Georgia. Does the Duke have any idea of the Duchess' current plans?

I guess creepy loves mean, but mean doesn't love creepy back so mean goes off to find new and creepy hates new because of this.<br /><br />I think Georgia should just steer clear of the Duke and Duchess and stay with Griffin. It'll be better for her, and then she won't have something bad happen to her every time she goes there.<br /><br />I've got to say though, Griffin does look like the type to steal things... I'm not sure if that makes sense, but he has the charm of a thief (again, does it make sense?) I've just known most thief characters to be charming and mysterious <3 <br /><br />I didn't particularly notice his hair until you pointed it out, so no worries with that. Then again, I'm not all too good at noticing things...<br /><br />I just got a thought! Are you going to kill off Griffin? The prophecy said something along the lines of ''losing a love'... Random stab in the dark, Georgia refuses to stay with the Duke/Duchess and refuses to play in their evil games, then the evil pair are angry so they sent Griffin off to get hung for his crimes. Which is where she loses her love. I think that was a line in the prophecy...? <br />I doubt that's what you're going to do, but if it is, I am the best clairvoyant of them all!FutureCarrie?https://www.blogger.com/profile/18093792281240235088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436869084648400373.post-49925101877677009232014-06-28T07:51:43.763-07:002014-06-28T07:51:43.763-07:00Georgia is really between a rock and a hard place....Georgia is really between a rock and a hard place. She's such a trusting person that I didn't, for one second, believe she wouldn't go to the aid of the Duchess. I also don't think she'll allow her friends to be hurt/imprisoned/executed if she can prevent it either. She certainly seems like the person to give up her own desires to protect those she loves but man, can't there be another way???<br /><br />Off on a tangent: I seriously loathe the Duchess right now. Not only is she going to force another woman into a relationship she doesn't want using horrid blackmail and force if necessary but she's going to off herself so she doesn't have to deal with it.I just want to reach through the screen and tear out her pretty blonde hair. heavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05461257842343457492noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436869084648400373.post-40873155337664481812014-06-28T07:33:58.280-07:002014-06-28T07:33:58.280-07:00Loved the update!

But how in the world if Griffin going to pay for it? I wonder what sort of youthful indiscretion Griffin had because I'm pretty sure he wouldn't hide something like that from George! He would tell her if he knew! (Maybe *I'm* being naive! Lol!) <br /><br />I love the story! I wouldn't worry so much about potential discrepancies. I didn't notice any of the things you mentioned until I read your author's note! Beautiful writing!!

I don't know why, but it felt like he was hiding something big and that was my guess. <br /><br />So the duchess hates babies? So did Queen Victoria. I feel kind of bad for the duchess even if she's orchestrating this really horrible plan. She was probably groomed from birth to be in this kind of position, so it's kinda sad. She's still horrible, though, and deserves any bad thing that comes her way. <br /><br />I love the new house. Isn't it frustrating how much alchemists make? I feel similarly with my founder who is already rich despite being a collector. I also didnt notice any of the inconsistencies. Great chapter!

...Yes, very gullible! Perfect word for her, lol. =D<br /><br />Thank you. <3 Yes, that's exactly what I was trying to go for. She is trusting to a fault, but it would go against everything she believes in and stands for to deny an innocent, dying woman the help she needs.<br /><br />Yeah, the duchess. She did indeed orchestrate this scheme all by herself, but I'm sure the duke wouldn't have been too opposed to it if he'd known about it in advance. He's not a nice guy, lol.<br /><br />Yes, the prophecy. ^_^ "Poor George" seems to be the motto for this generation, haha.<br /><br />*hugs Teal* Thank you for the comment. I was (am) having a bit of a shitty night, and you really cheered me up.

That seems a bit harsh to me. =(<br /><br />I guess I wasn't clear with the timing here, but Griffin was married long before he met Georgia. He didn't "marry the girl anyway". When the duchess said that her husband "did a little digging a few months ago", she was referring to the period directly following his (the duke's) encounter with George, well before Griff's final trip to his hometown. Sorry for the confusion.<br /><br />I don't think I understand your last remark. Why would his marriage bite him in the ass more than Georgia's decision? IF his previous relationship (yes, previous) does indeed come back to haunt him it will be BECAUSE Georgia agrees to the duchess' plan. Again, sorry to confuse you like that. I guess I need to be more careful with the details in future chapters.Buckleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15791098360536318915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436869084648400373.post-85965902897099411192014-06-27T22:04:14.452-07:002014-06-27T22:04:14.452-07:00So very gullible.

And who would have guessed it was the Duchess who orchestrated it all, and not the Duke. <br /><br />OH NO THE PROPHECY! I'm guessing she moves in, because she wants to protect Amara and Griffin. Hopefully she confronts the dirty scoundrel though. I'm not looking forward to the other parts of the prophecy...

I tot...Goddamit, George. You really are an idiot. <br /><br />I totally saw Griffin marrying the girl anyway coming, but I do hope it comes back to bite him in the ass more than George agreeing to whatever the Duchess is saying does.
