Prologue

Anna, a beautiful 18 years old-girl, worked in a shop in the old town of Goroda, in

Central Maldenia. Her parents were dead, her lover, Boris, was prison for revolutionary

activities, her employer was very unkind to her. She dreamed of a happier life. One of

the royal procession passed in the streeet. The Grand Duke saw Anna and fell in lovewith her. He sent for her, when she goes to the palace he told her that she must become

his mistress. If not, Boris would die. Anna agreed. Boris was released from prison, in a

letter Anna told him thet she could never see him again. Boris left Maldenia.

Three years passed. Anna and the Duke were in Paris.The Duke dying-he had only six

months to live-but doctors had not told him. Only Anna knew the truth. One day, Anna

was walking in the tuilers when suddenly something stopped her. It was Boris. He told

her that he was a famous artist ,rich, and successful. He was married to a french woman

, Yvette, but his heart he still loved Anna. Come away with me!he said. Anna refused,

and Boris said thet he would do something terrible. At that moment, Yvette joined them.

Boris told Yvette that Anna was his cousin from Maldenia but Yvette didnt believe him.

Yvette met one of her friends, Madame Binoche and decided to leave them.Let them

remind of all good things happened in their Maldenia. I wont understand what theyre

talking about. I even never heard anything about Maldenia until I met Boris, she told

herself. However it might be, she couldnt certain herself. Feelings of a wife or just an

unreasonable jealousy, whatever. Yvette thought she knew her husband well, but that

day everything seemed strange. Yvette didnt recognize that woman at all. Thats why

she was anxious, did she just cousin or.

Too many choises for an answer, probabilities and Yvette wasnt brave enough gambled

with situation. Suspicious mind with his husband were a big mistake if she didnt get any

proof. Better believe,she grumbled. Yes, believe him.

Is that your wife?

He nodded.We got married two years ago, before Christmas.

Anna didnt pay attention to the conversation seriously. She admired Boris who got

change nowadays. That man was looking great in short brown hair, was matching with

his brown eyes. He wore a black suit with a pointed collar and black dranpipe trousers.

He still get his unforgettable smile, she thought.

Whether she realized or not, Anna raised her desire that were hidden deep down in her

heart for quite long time. Three years; 1095 days; 26280 hours passed so fast without

Boris in her side. Anna loved him, even heaven knew.

Umm, I forget to congragulated you for your wedding with The Duke. Soon after I got

out from jail, I moved to Paris. I just dont want to disturb your happiness. I.Anna touched and she melted in his dark brown eyes. She hugged him. Please dont

hate me, Boris. I didnt find any other good way than married him, she cried. Anna

kissed his neck tremoulously.Dont hate me.

I swear to God I wont hate you, ever. Boris wiped her tears from her face. Boris

couldnt believe it could be real, met his Anna again. He knew he was disapointed with

Anna and let her separated from him. But when he met her again , Boris felt another

chance came on him by the mercy of God. Boris wished Anna was the mother of his

children, and spent rest of his life hapilly ever after just like the fairy tales ended. While,

Anna who forgot had refused Boris before left him kissing her lips. Another longing kiss.

Lovers desire.

Boris brought Anna to the bridge of St. Martin. That night the moon shined brightly. Itsshadow reflected on the water. Both of them didnt talk too much, stared the sparkling

stars spread in the sky. Anna felt fine in his warm hands. She could feel his breath on

her cheek. Anna scared to close her eyes, she wouldnt ended all the moments if they

were just a dream. Somebody, stop our love. Im burned in this sensation. I love him, I

love him, I cant think other but the feeling.

Has Master eaten his supper? Anna asked Mignonette, the old woman who had beenthe head of servants in her chateau, finished her report based on the last situation afterAnna out all day long.Not yet, Madame. Mignonette cowered respectly. Master waitedfor Madame, he refused me to help him.Anna surprised, then decided to meet Duke as soon as possible. Doctor sait that Dukehad to take rest more than usual. Its late for his bed now, she thought.

Bon soir, my love. Duke laid on canopied-bed,relied on pillow,sustained his back so hecould watch Anna came in.

Why dont you eat your dinner, Dear. You turned me crazy when I heard this fromMignonette.She was recentful at once but when she realized couldnt angry with hishusband, Anna smiled and started to feed him.

Dont worry, Im okay. See, I read this book while I was waiting for you.He showed thelast page he had read.

I miss your pate,Duke said. He got bored with the same menu for dinner, potato creamsoup with small slice of bread. No wine, no meat. He thought that he could be near todeath with this food. Even Mignonette got better than this.

Im sorry but this is doctors advice.Anna cleaned soup in his lips with clean cloth.I pay doctor to make me healthy, not to make me suffer like this. He was peevish.However, she finished his dinner. Anna treated him right, he wouldnt neglect her.Before he got sleep, Duke told something sad.Do you love me?Anna surprised,silent. She couldnt say anything.

First time I saw you, I always said to myself, I could make you happy.I felt so perfectthat day. But now, I realize that I cant, on the contrary drag you to trouble. Im sorry,forced you to marry me that day. I cant make you happy like the way a wife should getfrom her husband.

No, youre perfect.Anna smiled. If you want me happy like a wife is, get well soon.Watching you out of the bed is the best gift from you.Duke smiled back at Anna. He cried like a little boy. I will, Anna. I will.That night he slept quietly. But not to Anna, she couldnt forget the conversation. Shelied. She wouldnt be a faithful wife for The Duke. She couldnt throw all memories abouther and Boris. It was too beautiful to forget with that way.Mignonette woke up earlier, checked the roses near the pond. Yesterday Laura said thatsome of the flower-buds looked sick. So Mignonette came to make sure that thegardener could brought any fertilizer as the solution for those poor roses.When sheopened the front door, she saw a bouquet of roses left intentionally. Mignonette found aletter in the bouquet. Mignonette decided not to be too courious, brought in and putthem on coffee table.

Anna surprised when she saw those roses. But after read the message in the envelope,she understood.

I cant sleep when Im thinking of you. Being far from you again is a nightmare. I missyou so much, but I have to go to Lyon for few days for business purpose. Anyway, Ipromise that I will back soon after all of my job done. This Saturday, meet me at St.Martin Bridge, at 5 pm.Your lover, Boris

Saturday meant two days after, there wasnt much time to think. Shall I come, shethought.She couldnt forget Boris out of her mind but she couldnt let The Duke leftwithout her in chateau, either. Suddenly, Anna felt dizzy. She needed a glass of brandy

immediately.

What a bad morning. Boris didnt come home last night and they wrangled when they


3/6

had breakfast.Whats wrong as a wife asked her husband where he was last night. All ofthe sudden Boris turned like a dynamite, boom! He hit the dining table and banged thebathroom door. Yvette was frightened at once.The invitation of Madame Binoche to the garden party consoled her a little. Staying alittle longer here with Boris could be a terrible mistake.Yvette changed her clothes withpurple tulle gown. She wouldnt let herself mess up in front of her friends.

Madame Binoches backyard was full of women laughs. She brought a very popularviolist to entertain her guests. She was with Clarisse van Gunvald, who married a Dutcharcheologist waited for Yvette under the birch tree.Hi, were here! Madame Binochewaved at her. Ive just told Binoche about the affair of Lady Chaulette with his horseinstructor.Clarisse laughed. You wont believe, he is so young and gorgeous! I wont mind ifChaulette want to share him with me.Yvette remembered her fight with Boris. Accidentially, he mentioned the name of thewoman they met at the tuilers a night before. Anna. She decided to asked MadameBinoche about the woman further. She knew about any borgeouis affair story, maybeshe knew something about Anna. She also met her last night.

Do you know the woman we met with Boris last night?

That Anna?Yes, I know she is Anna. She is Boris cousin from Maldenia.She is the real Cinderella,Madame Binoche said, seriously. She was a poor girl untilthe Duke married her. The ugly duck turns to a goose. Her name changed to DuchessAnna Charlotte Mary Felicia Soleil. Really classy, huh?

Duke is dying and that means she owns all of the Soleils belongings.Clarisse said. Icant believe there is such a woman in this world nowadays. When my daughter growsup mature I will marry her with the old, dying and rich merchant.Yvette couldnt find any connection of their story with Boris. She was doubtful, was Annareally the cousin of Boris?One Saturday in the end of October. The sky seemed unkind, it was almost raining.Windblew tightly, flew leaves to all directions. Anna asked Arnold drove the horses faster.

The rain was heavily when they got to the bridge.Anna crossed the road. She knew Boriswould waited for her even it was raining. Youre cold, Anna held fast his hands. I thinkwe should cancel this trip.Boris shooked his head. Ive promised you.He pulled Anna into his horse cart. Boris drove his car himself. Anna wouldnt mind if theweather wasnt this bad. Riding horse in raining was not good for his lungs.Rain stopped when they arrived at the wood hovel near the forest. She couldnt hide hersurprise. She could feel the sweetscented of pines in the air.It reminded her with Yukon,her grannys village in Maldenia.

I know you will like this place.Anna nodded.

Tomorrow I will show you the lake that you can say its as beautiful as Serene Lake in

Maldenia. Come in, Ill make a special drink.No, let it be me. You must be tired already. Take some rest.No,no.Boris made her sit in the chair. Today I will be your servant, Madame.Anna took a bath and changed her wet dress with bath robe. Boris waited for her in theliving room. He was just got his bath too.His brown hair was wet and little bit messy.

Try this,Boris offered the drink.Hmm, its good. Anna could taste its chocolate flavour mixed with coffee in it. What isthis?

Pots de Crme, Madame. I poured chocolate, heavy cream, egg yolks and add GrandMarnier to the coffee. I make it extra for you in the kitchen.

That night was the best night for Boris and Anna. Watched the forest in night togetherwith cups of Pots de Crme, talked all night long, made love in front of fireplace. They

were united, flew in the world of their own. I love you, Boris whispered to Anna whenshe slept in his hand. Always love you.


4/6

Good evening, Boris nodded at Yvette. This late night Boris came home. She wouldntask Boris anymore. She tired had a fight again with him.

Ill ask Marian serve your dinner.No thanks. Iwant to go bed right now.I see, Yvette said. By the way, I want to tell you about the Halloween party in ourhouse next Sunday. And I want to make sure that your cousin was invited.

Boris freezed at once. He was very surprised. He knew what his wife meant aboutcousin. Its Anna.Dont forget it, okay?Yvette went to the library, left him alone in the dining room.

Anna laughed at Boris when she heard his story about Yvette and her halloween party.So, what do you think?I come to your party as your cousin, is that what you want to hear? Anna laughedagain.

Im not acting funny now. Boris was recentful, she found in his face. Its a seriousproblem. How can I tell everyone in the party that you are my cousin. They were in theway to Miragnac, the Soleils chateau.

Anna kissed him.Dont worry. Even I dont want all people in Paris marked me as apoulet.

Youll come?Anna nodded.

Anna had no idea why Duke debated about new husband for her that night. She couldntimagine how Duke knew about Boris in Paris. Maybe the roses he sent few days ago,whatever.

Anna, if someday you find a man better than me, I wont prohibit you. I want to makeyou happy even it means I have to let you go.Anna calmed.

I love you, Anna. But love that makes my beloved one suffered is not love I want.

However, honestly I cant imagine what kind of life without you but if I know you arehappy I will be satisfied end my life.I-I I dont understand.You have to. Im dying, I heard your conversation with doctor last week. All themedicines he gave me doesnt work anything.Anna cried. That day she knew that she couldnt parted from Duke, her husband. Thereason was clear, she loved him. She realized that the feelings she had with Boris waspure love, but Dukes love of all these three years awaked her that love was not justfrom whom she loved but it just grew in her heart naturally.

Anna, 18 tahun yang indah-gadis, bekerja di sebuah toko di kota tua Goroda, di Central

Maldenia. Orangtuanya sudah mati, kekasihnya, Boris, adalah penjara untuk kegiatanrevolusioner, majikannya sangat tidak baik padanya. Dia bermimpi hidup yang lebih

bahagia. Salah satu prosesi kerajaan lewat di streeet tersebut. Grand Duke melihat Anna

dan jatuh cinta padanya. Dia dikirim untuk dia, ketika dia pergi ke istana ia mengatakan

bahwa ia harus menjadi majikannya. Jika tidak, Boris akan mati. Anna setuju. Boris

dibebaskan dari penjara, dalam surat Anna berkata thet dia tidak pernah bisa melihatnya

lagi. Boris meninggalkan Maldenia.

Tiga tahun berlalu. Anna dan Duke berada di Paris.The Duke sekarat-dia hanya enam bulan

untuk hidup-tapi dokter tidak memberitahunya. Hanya Anna tahu yang sebenarnya.Suatu

hari, Anna berjalan di tuilers ketika tiba-tiba sesuatu menghentikannya. Itu adalah Boris. Dia

mengatakan bahwa dia adalah seorang seniman terkenal, kaya, dan sukses.Ia menikahdengan seorang wanita prancis, Yvette, tetapi hatinya dia masih mencintai Anna. "Ayo pergi


5/6

dengan aku!" Katanya. Anna menolak, dan Boris mengatakan thet dia akan melakukan

sesuatu yang mengerikan. Pada saat itu, Yvette bergabung dengan mereka. Boris

mengatakan Yvette bahwa Anna adalah sepupunya dari Maldenia tetapi Yvette tidak

percaya dia.

Yvette bertemu salah satu temannya, Madame Binoche dan memutuskan untukmeninggalkan mereka "Biarkan mereka mengingatkan segala sesuatu yang baik terjadi di

Maldenia mereka.. Saya tidak akan mengerti apa yang mereka bicarakan. Aku bahkan tidak

pernah mendengar apa-apa tentang Maldenia sampai aku bertemu Boris, "katanya kepada

dirinya sendiri. Namun mungkin, dia tidak bisa yakin dirinya sendiri.Perasaan seorang istri

atau hanya sebuah kecemburuan yang tidak masuk akal, apa pun. Yvette pikir ia tahu

suaminya dengan baik, tapi itu semua hari terasa aneh. Yvette tidak mengakui wanita itu

sama sekali. Itu sebabnya dia cemas, apakah dia hanya sepupu atau ....

Choises Terlalu banyak jawaban, probabilitas dan Yvette tidak berani berjudi dengan

situasi. Pikiran curiga dengan suaminya adalah sebuah kesalahan besar jika dia tidak

mendapatkan bukti apapun. Lebih baik percaya, ia menggerutu. Ya, percaya padanya."Apakah itu istrimu?"

Dia mengangguk "Kami menikah dua tahun lalu, sebelum Natal.".

Anna tidak memperhatikan percakapan serius. Dia mengagumi Boris yang mendapat

perubahan saat ini. Laki-laki itu tampak hebat di rambut cokelat pendek, yang sesuai

dengan mata cokelatnya. Dia memakai setelan hitam dengan kerah lancip dan celana

dranpipe hitam. Dia masih mendapatkan senyum yang tak terlupakan itu, pikirnya.

Apakah dia menyadari atau tidak, Anna mengangkat keinginannya yang tersembunyi jauh di

dalam hatinya untuk waktu yang cukup lama. Tiga tahun; 1095 hari; 26280 jam berlalu

begitu cepat tanpa Boris di sisinya. Anna mencintainya, bahkan surga tahu.

"Umm, saya lupa untuk congragulated Anda untuk pernikahan Anda dengan Duke.Segerasetelah saya keluar dari penjara, aku pindah ke Paris. Aku hanya tidak ingin mengganggu

kebahagiaan Anda. Aku .... "

Anna tersentuh dan dia meleleh di matanya yang gelap coklat. Dia memeluknya. "Tolong

jangan membenci saya, Boris. Saya tidak menemukan cara yang baik selain menikah

dengannya, "serunya. Anna mencium lehernya tremoulously "Jangan membenciku."

"Aku bersumpah demi Allah aku tidak akan membencimu, pernah." Boris menghapus air

mata dari wajahnya. Boris tidak bisa percaya hal itu bisa menjadi nyata, bertemu, Anna

lagi. Dia tahu dia disapointed dengan Anna dan membiarkan dia terpisah darinya.Tetapi

ketika ia bertemu dengannya lagi, Boris merasa kesempatan lain datang padanya karena

rahmat Allah. Boris berharap Anna adalah ibu dari anak-anaknya, dan menghabiskan sisahidupnya hapilly selamanya seperti dongeng berakhir. Sementara, Anna yang lupa menolak

Boris sebelum meninggalkannya mencium bibirnya. Kerinduan lain berciuman. Kekasih

keinginan.

Boris membawa Anna ke jembatan St Martin. Malam itu bulan bersinar terang.Bayangannya

tercermin di atas air. Keduanya tidak berbicara terlalu banyak, menatap bintang-bintang

gemerlap menyebar di langit. Anna merasa baik di tangan yang hangat.Dia bisa merasakan

napasnya di pipinya. Anna takut untuk menutup mata, ia tidak akan berakhir semua momen-

olah mereka hanya mimpi. Seseorang, menghentikan cinta kita.Aku dibakar di sensasi

ini. Aku mencintainya, aku mencintainya, aku tidak bisa berpikir lain selain perasaan.

"Apakah Guru dimakan makan malamnya?" Tanya Anna Mignonette, perempuan tua yangpernah menjadi kepala pelayan di puri nya, selesai laporannya berdasarkan situasi terakhir


6/6

setelah Anna keluar sepanjang hari. Mignonette "Belum, Madame." Meringkukrespectly.

"menunggu Guru untuk Madame, ia menolak saya untuk membantunya."

Anna kaget, kemudian memutuskan untuk bertemu Duke sesegera mungkin. Dokter SAIT

bahwa Duke harus beristirahat lebih dari biasanya. Sudah malam untuk tempat tidurnya

sekarang, pikirnya.

"Soir Bon, cintaku." Duke meletakkan pada tempat tidur berkanopi, mengandalkan bantal,ditopang punggungnya sehingga dia bisa menonton Anna masuk

"Mengapa tidak kamu makan makan malam Anda, Dear. Anda berbalik saya gila ketika saya

mendengar ini dari Mignonette "Dia recentful sekaligus. Tetapi ketika ia menyadari tidak bisa

marah kepada suaminya, Anna tersenyum dan mulai memberinya makan.

"Jangan khawatir, aku baik-baik saja. Lihat, saya membaca buku ini ketika saya sedang

menunggu Anda. "Dia menunjukkan halaman terakhir dia baca.

"Aku rindu pate Anda," kata Duke. Dia bosan dengan menu yang sama untuk makan malam,

sup krim kentang dengan irisan kecil roti. Tidak ada anggur, daging. Dia berpikir bahwa dia

bisa menjadi dekat sampai mati dengan makanan ini. "Bahkan Mignonette menjadi lebih

baik dari ini.""Maaf tapi ini saran dokter." Dibersihkan Anna sup di bibirnya dengan kain bersih.

"Saya membayar dokter untuk membuat saya sehat, tidak membuat saya menderita seperti

ini." Dia kesal. Namun, dia selesai makan malamnya. Anna memperlakukannya benar, ia

tidak akan mengabaikan dia.

Sebelum ia tidur, Duke mengatakan sesuatu yang menyedihkan "Apakah engkau mengasihi

Aku?".

Anna kaget, diam. Dia tidak bisa mengatakan apa-apa.

"Pertama kali aku melihatmu, aku selalu berkata pada diri sendiri, aku bisa membuat Anda

happy.I merasa begitu sempurna hari itu. Tapi sekarang, saya menyadari bahwa saya tidak

dapat, sebaliknya menyeret Anda kesulitan. Maaf, Anda dipaksa menikah hari itu. Saya tidakdapat membuat Anda bahagia seperti cara seorang istri harus mendapatkan dari suaminya.
