Historical Romance Short Story

The idea of getting married to lord Teabing did not excite me as much as it excited my parents. I knew that the political tie with the Lannister’s would benefit us greatly but this is not how I pictured my marriage. To start with Teabing was a cripple that walked with the aid of a stick and secondly, his features were very pale. Though still young, his hairline was quickly receding, his face was thin and wrinkles had begun to form on his forehead. This I assumed is because he loved to make faces or is it to frown. He had a sharp nose and thin dry lips. He was tall and athletic probably the only good thing I could find in him.
