Husband Prophecy

Zandria de Lac was a powerful sorceress who lived in the Kingdom of Markor. While this kingdom had a royal family, the real power rested in her beautiful but capable hands. She gave advice and lent her powers to the royal family whenever they requested it and when not involved in these activities, she spent her time studying her magic. Living with Zandria was her daughter, a young woman of even greater beauty than her mother. Her name was Melina, and she was approaching twenty five years of age without having found a husband. For her this was no problem because, with her beauty, she was able to draw men from all over the kingdom to share her bed. Once she married and became pregnant, she wouldn't be able to indulge in her sexual escapades. Zandria was becoming quite agitated with the fact that her daughter wasn't married. She was reaching old age, although one wouldn't be able to tell from looking at her. (She used her magic to keep her looking about as young as her daughter.)

She was a beautiful young woman with sparkling big blue eyes, soft full lips, long curly dark chestnut hair, and a soft creamy complexion. "Yes. I will return within a couple hours," her mother answered. "Okay," Melina answered. Zandria kissed her daughter lightly on the cheek and then left the cottage. Melina frowned for a moment as she worried about how she was going to leave the house now to meet her lover if her mother would be out there. It wasn't necessarily that she was hiding this man from her mother because Zandria knew about Melina's sexual life; it was just that Zandria didn't like it flaunted in front of her, and Melina respected her mother's wishes. Melina had a great amount of admiration for her powerful mother. She saw how the people in the kingdom treated her with great respect and kindness. Sometimes Melina felt a tinge of jealousy that she hadn't gained any of the powers that her mother had, but she also felt lucky. She didn't really want that kind of responsibility because it would
