"I'll write him tonight and mail it tomorrow," he promised.

"At least we no longer have to worry about your letters to your cousin being stolen!" Marlena said with a grin.

He nodded with a solemn look. "That's true, but it seems I now have a new problem."

She looked at him in concern. "What is it?"

"It's terrible! I'm not sure I can say it without upsetting you in your condition," he said with a worried look.

Marlena's expression became alarmed. "You must! We promised to share the good and the bad. Tell me!"

He finally nodded with conviction. "Okay, I will." He took a deep breath and watched her eyes widen. "Someone... someone is opening my mail... from my cousin."

Her mouth dropped open in surprise. Then she narrowed her eyes at him as a smile came to her face. "You wicked man!" she gasped in false outrage.

Wulf laughed and enjoyed the sparkle that showed in her eyes when she was truly happy. This was something else he'd promised he'd give her.

Because that's what made him truly happy!

A fairy tale to be sure, but it was fun reading it. You kinda know what's going to happen,, but watching it all unfold is the pleasure of reading a good story. And it's a pleasure to read something unburdened with today's technology and social burdens. A simpler time, but still quite engaging. 5*
