Nikita arrived to her room where she met the acquaintance of two young ladies. Helen introduced them to her, “Lady Samuelle, this is Rose and Ingrid. They are your ladies-in-waiting and will assist you with anything you wish.”
Both the ladies curtsied to Nikita. Nikita nodded back to them. “It is a pleasure meeting you both.”
She led Nikita into the beautiful bedroom. It had four windows which spanned across the room and a huge bed. Nikita looked up at the ceilings to see the extensive artwork which decorated the ceiling.
“These are your bedchambers, Lady Nikita. There is a sitting room and library to through that door on the left. Your bathing tub is located in the room over there and also an large room through that door. It is usually used when you have an infant.”
Nikita was in awe of her beautifully decorated room. When she said infant, Nikita blushed. She knew that all too soon, she would be a mother. “Thank you. I am most please with the room.”
Helen smiled and instructed the ladies, “Lord Samuelle wishes you to prepare her for their wedding night. She is to be shown to his bedchambers in exactly thirty minutes.”
They nodded and curtsied in response to the demands of the housekeeper. The housekeeper begged her leave to Nikita and left the room. Nikita turned around to see two young women scuffling around the room to get her ready.
As much as she was impressed with the room, she had hoped she and Michael would not have to sleep apart. She wanted to snuggle in the arms of her loved one every night and she would not care if they had to sleep in the barns.
Ingrid came over and said, “May I help you out of your dress, Lady Samuelle?”
Nikita smiled and giggled. “Please call me Nikita.” As much as she loved being referred to as Samuelle, she preferred people call her by her name.
Ingrid blushed a little bit. “That would not be proper of me, my lady.”
Nikita put her hand on Ingrid’s shoulder as she undid her dress. “Please we will all be spending a lot of time together and it is what I prefer.”
Ingrid smiled as she assisted Nikita. “As you wish, my lady. Are you pleased with your bedchambers?”
Nikita replied, “Oh most certainly. I will have more time tomorrow to explore this vast estate. I cannot wait to see the castle.”
Rose came over to assist the both of them. “If you need any help with finding your way around, we can help you. You are from Rosemund, my lady?”
Nikita nodded in delight. “Indeed, I am. You have heard of it?”
Rose replied, “Yes, I have seen the estate in passing. It is nice to finally have you and Lord Samuelle here.”
Nikita could not agree with her more. They brought out a white, silk nightgown which they helped her into. Very ornate and beautiful. She fathomed that it would not be on her body for very long. She felt fluttering in her stomach as she thought of Michael slowly removing the piece of clothing from her body.
They braided her hair and washed her hands and feet with a perfumed soap. Her maids were very nice people and helped her to feel very comfortable.
Ingrid asked curiously, “ Are you afraid, my lady? If I am too bold, please tell me.”
Rose nudged her to be quiet, but Nikita replied, “No, It is perfectly fine. I invite you both to always be honest and speak what is on your minds. Yes I am a bit nervous.”
“He is a good man, Nikita. His family have always been good to everyone here at East Gate.” Rose said.
Nikita smiled at their admiration for her husband. “There. All finished.” They led Nikita over to a mirror to inspect their work. Nikita barely recognized herself. She never wore her hair so loosely and the slip accentuated the curves of her body.
Her ladies waited patiently for her approval and she said to them, “Thank you! It is wonderful.”
They smiled and told her, “We should lead the way and show you to the Lord’s bedchambers. Should you need anything, please do not hesitate to ask.” Rose made every effort to make Nikita comfortable.
Nikita followed the ladies out the door and down the hallway to where Michael and she would finally become one with each other.
