Louis Capulet Monologue
Twenty-Nine

I had completely forgotten Louis’ appointment with Baroness Portella until the next morning when he was dressing to leave. I wanted to go with him, but even though Boudreaux and Louis both said that they felt the meeting was because of me, I dared not ask to go. The Baroness had not requested my presence there. Anxiously, I waited his return, but it was hours before he did return and by that time, I had become angry. When he walked in, I could see right away that all was not well.
“Where have you been? You’ve been gone for hours!” I exclaimed.
Louis walked straight to the liquor decanter and poured himself a glass of rum. He promptly drank a third of it before he spoke.
“I do apologize for my lengthy absence, but it is done. We shall have no more worries over the Baroness and her sick games. She has fled to Paris.”
“What did you do, Louis?”
“I reported her to the authorities- it was the only way…

If more women were plain spoken and told their husbands what they wanted, maybe it would not be so complicated… the way you did when we married. You told me your wishes… and I know that I told you that many women are frigid. Moreover, that many mothers raise their daughters to think sex disgusting and vile. What I did not say was that if they do enjoy sex, they are too embarrassed to tell their spouses what they wish or they are afraid they will be accused of being wanton. Most women that go to Madame’s playrooms are sexually frustrated; they only seek pleasure. They do not know of the Baronesses and the madam’s cruelty, they go to them to experience sexual gratification- but sex should not be forced on anyone; especially a slave that has no say so whatsoever in what they can and cannot do. This woman has some sort of mystical powers or spells that she uses to bend and contort people to her wicked wishes- she twisted me and used me. I was very young- it was all good while it was happening, but afterward I felt

    I suppose I ought to tell our whole story before you would, and could, understand why we have the Royal Guard on our backs, and why we need this refuge of sorts. It all started when King Henry VIII was born. His Majesty was born January the twenty-eighth the year of our Lord 1491 (Henry VIII). Henry was never really meant to be king, his older brother Arthur was. Arthur was taught how to be a king ever since he was old enough to understand it, he was even betrothed to an advantageous girl, Catherine of Aragorn, since the age of two (Henry VIII).…

    I scrubbed a final stubborn spot of grime from the stone floor; I was almost done when Sir Leon strode down the corridor. As he wandered by, he muttered a polite greeting, and I nodded my head in acknowledgement. He entered his chamber and I breathed a long sigh of relief. Yet moments later, Sir Leon appeared one again, this time, holding a mug.…

    Julius Caesar Monologue

    For some time he sat gazing stupidly at the paper. The telescreen had changed over to strident military music. It was curious that he seemed not merely to have lost the power of expressing himself, but even to have forgotten what it was that he had originally intended to say. For weeks past he had been making ready for this moment, and it had never crossed his mind that anything would be needed except courage. The actual writing would be easy. All he had to do was to transfer to paper the interminable restless monologue that had been running inside his head, literally for years. At this moment, however, even the monologue had dried up. Moreover his varicose ulcer had begun itching unbearably. He dared not scratch it, because if he did so it…

    The Ruined Maid

    • 1537 Words

    During Victorian times sex was considered taboo, and having sexual desire was identified mostly with men and women of lower classes, like prostitutes. To be a wife and mother required absolute purity and innocence on the woman's part. It was the woman's role to control the amount of sex that her and her husband would have, to maintain her wifely purity and be the "moral guide" to the family. In 1894, Ruth Smythers published a book called Sex Tips for Husbands and Wives in which she gave specific tips on how newlywed women should “endure” sex. One cardinal rule of marriage according to Smythers should never be forgotten. She states that when it comes to sex one should “give little, give seldom and above all give grudgingly. Otherwise what could…
