Year 1805

Dear Brother,

I die each day knowing soon will be last time I look upon you, to feel your touch and bask in your haunting gaze. By months end you will be gone from me. The despair I feel is a weight I cannot contain. As I write these words, the feel and taste of my tears hold your spirit. Please do not leave me, do not forget me, for I am lost without you. An empty vessel, longing to be filled by you again. Should I let you go my love, shall I release the hold you have upon my soul. The thought of it leaves me cold, for it is impossible for me to do. I am forever at your mercy.

Your Love

Zilpha

Dear Sister,

I felt the life slip through my fingers during the signing at the Academy. The wet black ink my blood. To forget you is inconceivable, for you are my light, my way through the darkness. We are one, and the life that grows inside you an extension of our undying devotion. A connection that will never be broken by distance. Your sorrow is my prison. Know my love for you, undeniable love for you, is your key to my everlasting soul. Never let me go, for I do not exist without you.

Yours Eternal

James

Dear Brother,

I feel you grow within me daily. The only solace I find while away from your touch, is knowing I carry a piece of you within me. I fear my love, I fear that father will unleash his holy wrath upon us. In which I will lose you twice, the man I love and our child. I wish we could run away, away to a place that has no bounds, borders or walls. There we could be free, free to love one another, free to be us, to be one. Meet me tonight in the garden when the clock strikes twelve. I will be waiting.

Till then

Zilpha

Dear Sister,

The feel of your body beneath mine is an existence I will forever welcome. The tightening of your legs around my waist taking all of me in. Your moans echo deep within me, so loud they vibrate off my soul. I felt a quickening like no other, filling me with such ecstasy and release. Leaving you and our child is death a thousand times. For no matter how long I am away know my love, I will forever carry you within me. Be it in life or in death.

Forever Yours

James
