Chapter VIII -Frivolous Cupid
Chapter VIII opens with Ashimullah once again caught in the tightening grip of court expectations, his personal beliefs increasingly at odds with the roles imposed on him by his royal duties. Although once a Christian, his conversion to Islam was more a matter of necessity than conviction, and the Sultan’s recent insistence on his maintaining a traditional Muslim household—with multiple wives—tests his integrity. Ashimullah has no desire to take more wives, not from fear or disdain, but out of deep…-

Chapter VI – Frivolous Cupid
Chapter VI begins with the quiet rustle of leaves and the hum of bees in an English orchard, where a philosopher sits reading, lost in his abstract thoughts. He is deeply immersed in a dense treatise on ontology, absorbed in reasoning that floats high above the tangible world around him. His detachment from nature’s softness and life's emotional tides is deliberate, shielding himself behind intellectual walls. It is in this meditative state that Miss May finds him. She arrives, seemingly playful, yet…-

Chapter V – Frivolous Cupid
Chapter V opens amid the ever-bubbling atmosphere of Poltons Park, where guests trade not only pleasantries but pointed glances and subtle moves in a game of social chess. The narrator, a quietly attentive observer, first paints Jack Ives as bold and straightforward—one of the few men at ease in courting Trix Queenborough despite her wealth and status. Rather than being intimidated, he thrives on the challenge she presents, while others circle cautiously, weighed down by propriety or calculation. Trix,…-

Chapter II – Frivolous Cupid
Chapter II opens inside the inviting parlor of Colonel Holborow’s residence, where a group of bachelors shares laughter and brandy while recounting personal stories. The room, thick with camaraderie and casual arrogance, becomes the stage for Jack Dexter’s memorable confession. Unlike the others, who told light-hearted tales or excused their singlehood with vague regrets, Dexter's account veers into absurd territory. His attempt to woo Lady Mary Fitzmoine, a woman of grace and social standing, is…-

Chapter X – Frivolous Cupid
Chapter X opens on a day brushed with sunlight and sea breeze, yet Mrs. Mortimer feels the weight of solitude. Dressed in the subdued shades of mourning, she and her son Johnnie appear almost misplaced amidst Brighton’s color and laughter. Years have passed since she chose to leave Natterley, not merely to be nearer to George’s office, as she had written, but to create distance between her heart and its unresolved past. Proximity to work was the shield; emotional survival was the cause. Her life has…-

Chapter IX – Frivolous Cupid
Chapter IX begins in the stillness of early evening, where golden light casts soft shadows across the quiet meadows, and Hilda finds herself haunted by a memory that refuses to settle. A kiss, brief and impulsive, shared with young Harry Sterling, has planted itself deeply in her conscience, unsettling her peace. She had not intended to invite affection, and certainly not from someone whose youth and idealism stood in sharp contrast to her mature restraint and married status. Her feelings have become…-
