Alicia watched with a frantically beating heart as her father followed the Black Knight. She waited at her vantage point, the south window, hoping to see them stride forward together toward the castle. Alas, that was not to be. Her father had exited the stables first, and alone he returned toward the castle. Edwina appeared and strode out of the stables with her steed, Raven. She had changed into her black armor and was mounted on Raven to ride to god knows where. Alicia watched as her father and Edwina exchanged further words. Her father started back toward the entrance of the castle shouting for the Master of the Guard. Oh god. Was her father going to send soldiers after Edwina? Her mind was in total disarray.

The Black Knight turned toward her window with a black gauntlet held to her chest. Alicia recalled a similar action that Edwina had used in the rose garden earlier that day. “I love you too.” The words escaped her quivering lips as she watched Edwina ride away.

The sound of the door opening caused her to pause from her deliberations of the Black Knight. Her father entered, his face a withdrawn mask.

“Father, are you not well?”.

“Daughter, your love will return. She has vowed so. I would wager that will happen."

Alicia ran over to her father, placing her arms around him, the bear hug had him chuckling. “Thank you, Father, thank you. But where is the Black Knight going?”

Her father smiled. “Our gallant knight believes that the young Count Jehan Devries will cause trouble this night. She goes to vanquish the threat as anyone would do if there might be any possibility that the woman they love is in mortal danger.”

“Father, have you sent anyone to help her?” Alicia was aghast at the news. What if there were many? The Knight could not vanquish them alone?

“I cannot do so, Alicia. The knight would not allow such a thing. I have more men on the walls as a precaution, under the instruction by our gallant knight. It is what the Black Knight requested, my daughter. However, I have men ready and able to aid her should she not return within the next three hours.” Lascelles spoke softly and smiled.

“Did she say anything other than the defense of our family?” Alicia softly asked.
