Mona and Faron by Dale McMurray (best love story novels in english .txt) 📕

she saw. A very pretty girl in a one of a kind dress that showed off her figure. It seemed to cling to her shape and then flow out from her hips . The sleeves were sheer and ended at the tips of her fingers. She picked a pendant her grandmother had given her just before she died. It had the family crest done in gold and diamonds. She matched it with a pair of drop diamond earrings . Mona brushed on some blush and lip glossing. Satisfied that she was beautiful Mona slipped on her gold slippers , then turned out the light, closed the door and joined the family on the front steppes. Cora handed her a mask made of colorful feathers that she made herself. They rode in the wagon on soft pillows and looked at the people going to the party. Some waved and others shouted greetings. Seth jumped off and walked with a girl of golden hair that he was fond of.
“ See you at the party.” He called as he caught up to her.
Mona looked at her mother. She was still the prettiest woman in the region. And she hoped to look that wonderful when she got that old. Her Father was tall and had a head of white hair that he kept pulled back. She loved him dearly but was still angry at him for his decision about Talbot.
“ Come Girl kiss your Father.” She leaned forward and placed a kiss on his cheek then he lifted her off the wagon.
“ You look spectacular Mona Kitten” His eyes were watery. It had been a long time since he had called her kitten. He turned his attention to Cora Mona stole away to look for Seth. She was interested in the girl that had his attention. Placing the mask on her face she worked her way among the crowd.

Part Two

Faron paced on his side of the fog. He had been thinking of the party Seth had mentioned. He changed into a lion and went home to see how his sister was doing.
“ Chima, look I have some flowers for you. ” He laid them down on her bed and nuzzled her. She purred softly. His Sister was beautiful. Her fur was Coral colored with spattering of gold and silver.
“ They are very pretty Faron.”
“ Don’t tell father but I got them from the other side.”
“Take care big brother. Remember they do not like us.”
“ I will. I have seen a girl that I want to meet. I have this craving to be with her.”
“ A soul mate? You? Well who is she?”
“I think she is the sister of a friend.”
“ Ti-Garr’s Sister?”
“ No”
“Then who?” Chima placed her face inches from his and her whiskers tickled his nose.
“ it’s a girl from the other side.”
“What? Are you crazy? Do you know what they would do to you if they found you ?” Chima’s kittens began Mewing and she gathered them up . Faron figured that this was a good time to leave. He decided to talk to his mother, Puma. She was a Shaman of the region. All Who lived near and far came to his home to see her and his father Mpaka who was the wisest.
“ Mother I need to talk.”
“ come sit by me Faron. Now what is your need.”
“ I think I have found the soul mate I have been craving.”
“ That is wonderful.”
“ well you might not think so when I tell you.”
“So tell me.”
“ I saw her on the other side of the fog today.” Puma gave him along stare.
“ Do you believe she is the one?”
“ Yes . What can I do?”
His mother looked over her only son’s face then walked towards the balcony. Faron followed and they both looked out on the Prides that lived below on the plains near to his home.
“ I fore saw this in a dream just after you were born. You must follow your heart. BE careful as what you are contemplating is dangerous.” With that Puma kissed her son and disappeared back into the darkness. Left standing alone on the balcony Faron made his decision. He would attend the party and meet the girl destined to be his soul mate.


Adjusting the mask Faron stepped through the fog. Then headed into the town. If he was discovered there could be bloodshed that he knew. Still the need to find the girl drove him onward. He scouted the edges of the town and mixed with happy party goers and joined the festivities. He had never been this close to so many of them. And his senses overloaded a bit on the different smells that he had never encountered. After a few minutes his head cleared and he could smell the cinnamon that the girl at the pond was wearing. He worked his way in that direction carefully avoiding large groups .
Talbot was busy guzzling his favorite liquor from a bottle. His two escorts were also quite drunk. He played with their partly exposed bosoms. He pointed at Mona as she hurried by.
“ I’m gonna marry that prude. Father says she will inherit lots of money.” He giggled as he stumbled.
“ What about us?” One of the girls whined.
“ Don’t worry. I will still be available.” He steered them towards a bench and the trio flopped down.
Mona discovered Seth in a dark alley with the girl he had walked with.
Watching for a moment she thought was a pretty pair they made. The girl was lovely with long golden hair that flowed down her back.
“ How lucky,” she thought. Seth got to pick his own love. And her brother looked so happy his face flushed in the candle light from the kiss the two had shared.
“ Hello.” Mona yelled as she walked closer. Seth jumped as he looked to see who had found them.
“ Mona! Don’t do that.”
Afraid some one will see you?” She teased. The girl stretched out her hand.
“ My name is Tristan.” Mona could see why Seth was taken with her. Tristan had eyes the color of green grass and an aura that was gentle.
“ Mona. I am going to marry her.”
Congratulations. I am so very happy for both of you!” Mona hugged the girl and kissed her brother then rushed off before they could see her tears. She stopped and looked back one last time.
“ Seth you haven’t asked me!”
“ Tristan will you marry me?”
“ Yes, Yes!!!”
As they kissed again Mona’s eyes began to sting with tears. She was confused and hurt. On one hand she was happy for her brother but on the other she was unhappy that she had to marry Talbot. As the tears clouded her eyes she ran head long into a strange man.
“I am sorry I did not see you.” As she tried to disengage from the man’s arms.
“ Why do you cry ,lady?” he asked.
“ Nothing, really.” She looked onto his face but could not see his eyes.
“ Come. Let’s dance that should cheer you up.” And he began to move slowly. Mona could not help herself and followed his lead. She could not stop looking at the face cover by the black mask. She seemed mesmerized by his closeness. It felt so right. HIs scent was intoxicating.
Faron was amazed how wonderful she felt in his arms. Who would have guest that the girl he saw with his friend this afternoon would be in his arms tonight.
“ Mona, my love there you are.“ Wheezed Talbot.As He managed to stumble forward.
“ Go away!” Mona turned to face him. And as she did the mystery man whispered into her ear.
“ Another time my lady.” and he disappeared into the crowd. She turned to look where he went. Talbot grabbed her hand and pulled her close.
“ I see now. There might be some spark yet.” he forced a kiss upon her then pushed her away. He headed back to his sleeping escorts.
“ Damn him.” She spat as she wiped his kiss from her lips. Looking around she spotted the man who had captured her heart. She started working her way through the partiers to get closer to him. She had to know who he was. Mona weaved her way closer. As she did he seemed to move away. It was like he was leading her somewhere. As she rounded a corner Mona came face to mask with the mystery man.
“ Lady why do you follow?”
“ I need to know who you are.”
“ Why?”
“ I think I am in love with you. Yet I know you not.” And Mona blushed. He took her face in his hands and gently kissed the lips that he had been craving. She kissed back. They walked and talked the night away. Yet he never revealed where he was from. Mona did not care she knew that he was her true love. As the dawn approached he kissed her one last time.
“Meet me here tomorrow at noon?” He asked.
“ Yes.”
As he walked a way he turned and lifted the mask for a second. She recognized him. Faron, Seth‘s friend. Then he was gone. Lost in the sea of people. Mona felt as if she was floating. She could not wait for tomorrow.
“ There you are my dear.” Her father called and waved. She went and stood beside them as
