The rake - a historical nano tale

 Hello!

Here you have it: the third NANOTALE!

I've discovered that nanotales are quite fun and now my mind immediately starts ploting for every nice painting I see!

On Instagram, I'm posting nanotales, curiosities of the Victorian era and publishing tidbits daily. So, if you can, follow me there and help me on the quest to achieve 10k on Instagram.  click here so I can keep on to the most dreamed swipe up. 

Enjoy!

'Lady Anne.' He whispered in a low voice. 'Tomorrow I am going to war, at this hour I will be on the battlefields on the continent.'

'My heart bleeds for you, Lord Mortimer.' Anne gasped, eyes wide.

To his delight, her chest rose and fell quickly, almost exploding from her decoletage. 'As companion, I will only have the memory of you sweetness. I shall cherish it, for only you will keep me warm when death hovers around. Grant me tonight, my dear, every hour and all of your intimacy. ' He asked knowing that at dawn he would embark for the continent, yes, but to enjoy a long season on the sunny beaches of the Iberian Peninsula.

'Yes, my lord, I will give you one night before your departure!'

I so loved these ballet pics from Royal Opera House, they are so romantic, so inspiring.

I composed 3 nanotales based by ballet scenes. Here are the others:

Declaration

A second before the duel

The 19th century had famous ballerinas, I have researched them when composing a lovely historical short novella about one ballerina and her brothers. 

I'm revising and sharpening edges to publish it.
