Grand Duchess
“The most beautiful woman in all of Europe: Grand Princess Elizabeth.”Emma ignored the whispers about her. Standing in the door, she searched the crowded room. Snow glazed her white fur hat and trimmed bell sleeves. With rare nervousness, she smoothed her royal blue coat and straightened the gold embroidered frogs. Then, with a shake of her burgundy skirt, she swept across the room. She stopped before one man who had never taken his eyes from her. “Sergei, my father asked my thoughts on your marriage proposal,” she announced. He bowed his head. “Dare I hope when you have rejected half the princes in Europe?” “I will tell you what I said. I remember visiting the orphanage with my mother when I was a girl-to give the children treats. A boy came with us-the Emperor's son. He was quiet…so quiet that I almost forget him. But then as we were leaving, I saw him with two little ones. Giving them the sweets his own mother had given him.” Sergei smiled. “How they loved it!” Emma leaned forward and clasped his hand. “And that was the day I first began loving you.”
