The\r\nthought of being married to a man more than thirty years her senior made\r\nher stomach lurch.  Why had her father chosen her for this task? She had an\r\nolder, unmarried sister and always believed herself to be the favorite.\r\n Her father\u2019s betrayal stung her eyes.\r\n\r\nShe played back his words in her mind. \u201cI know this is not what you had\r\nplanned, but things have changed.  We need a strong heir for the clan, and\r\nPrince Sarik is doing this out of friendship.  I know you have never met\r\nhim, and despite your age difference, he would make a good husband and\r\nstrong ally,\u201d her father explained.\r\n\r\n\u201cI\u2019m to be married to an old man for the sake of Eir?\u201d  Jael had never\r\nknown her father to waver from his belief that his daughters should marry\r\nfor love, so his sudden change of heart confused her.\r\n\r\nHe paced the floor in front of the hearth in his private chambers.  \u201cI made\r\nthis decision with a heavy heart.  I can no longer wait on your sisters to\r\ngive me a grandson, nor can I trust any of their husbands.  I need Sarik to\r\nhelp rule when I am gone and can think of no better daughter to rule with\r\nhim.\u201d\r\n\r\nTears fell down her face.  \u201cBut he is so old!\u201d  Jael cried, hoping he would\r\nchange his mind at the sight of her tears.\r\n\r\nRowe sat in his chair and put his fingertips together under his chin. \u201cI\r\nhave arranged for you to leave for Hy-Brasil at week\u2019s end.  You will stay\r\nthere a full lunar cycle, and if you still feel you are unable to wed him\r\nby the end of the time, you may come home, and I will offer him Lenni.\u201d\r\n\r\nShe stifled her tears as his word sunk in.  She would be given a chance to\r\nturn the marriage down.  \u201cIf that is your wish, my Laird, I will do my best\r\nto honor it.\u201d  Jael curtsied and left the room.\r\n\r\nNight fell while she sat on the bench, and Jael shivered as the cold wind\r\nstarted to blow.  The sound of horses at the front of the house caught her\r\nattention, so she went to investigate.  Halis and Edric had just arrived\r\nfrom their cottage.  Jael rushed to her sister and threw her arms around\r\nher as if she hadn\u2019t seen her in years.\r\n\r\nAs soon as Halis saw Jael\u2019s tearstained face, she frowned and said to\r\nEdric, \u201cI\u2019ll see you in the great room later,\u201d before walking off with Jael.\r\n\r\n\u201cWhat troubles you, sister?\u201d she asked as they walked to the room she and\r\nJael had shared.\r\n\r\n\u201cFather has betrothed me to Prince Sarik,\u201d she cried.<\/pre>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>This book tour and contest is brought to you by <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/promotionalbooktours.com\">Promotionalbooktours.com<\/a><\/em><em> Open to U.S. Residents.<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"linkwithin_hook\" id=\"https:\/\/morefrommom.com\/?p=588\"><\/div><script>\n<!-- \/\/LinkWithinCodeStart\nvar linkwithin_site_id = 1406085;\nvar linkwithin_div_class = \"linkwithin_hook\";\n\/\/LinkWithinCodeEnd -->\n<\/script>\n<script src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/widget.js\"><\/script>\n<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/\"><img src=\"http:\/\/www.linkwithin.com\/pixel.png\" alt=\"Related Posts Plugin for WordPress, Blogger...\" style=\"border: 0\" \/><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Immortal Voyage Before the time of the great pyramids, there was a place like none other, a city of glass and metal rising from the depths of the ocean.
