BIOGRAPHY

born the first of three daughters of an exceedingly wealthy tradesman of middling nobility , it was clear from a young age that lisabetta’s life would be golden . each facet of her life was planned & prepared for - - the golden girl would be educated to be a little lady , all to make a golden wife out of her . too clever even in her youth , elisa knew that to be golden meant to be controlled . to be pawned off & encouraged to become a wife that would increase her family’s standing . so , she played her part . she received what education she could . she smiled politely , laughed at jokes she couldn’t find the humour in . a storm of rebellion brewed within her , stubbornness & true intelligence hidden behind doe - eyes and thick lashes . she waited . for to be golden meant to live in a gilded cage , and lisabetta wanted nothing more than to fly free .

freedom for a woman , though , seemed a more difficult reality than her optimism hoped for . instead , she dedicated herself to the care of her two younger sisters , and then the little brother that would follow, nearly 12 years her junior . care & nurturing came as easily as breathing to elisa , and her siblings were sorely in need of it . their parents were not the overly - involved type . lisabetta’s father saw his children , partcularly his eldest , as little more than pawns in a game she was quickly coming to understand . her mother was critical of her every breath , cruel in her judgements & harsh in her parenting . perhaps they were preparing their children for the world of snakes & vipers that they would one day be thrust into , but love was naught to be found within their venetian home . so , lisabetta supplied it - she supplied it in full. she became the bearer of secrets , the mender of broken hearts . thoughts of freedom & rebellion calmed - she had a job to do .

DUTY CAME CALLING before lisabetta was ready . a match , forged by influence & coin saw the eldest of the morosoni children betrothed to gabriel d’onofrio . little was explained to her about the arrangement . she was fortunate to find , however , that her intended was intelligent , respectful , albeit a bit guarded . they were soon married . the first blooms of marriage were tender ones . gabriel was attentive , romantic , even . lisabetta soon found the feelings of obligation giving way to true care .

as time moved on however , lisabetta noticed marked changes in her husband . distance grew between them , and isolation settled in her bones . she relied on the company and comfort of her sister - in - law to stave off her loneliness . an inherently curious creature , lisabetta suspected that gabriel’s mind was troubled by something , but the more she pried , the more distant he seemed to become . their marriage was fragmented by a wall she could not penetrate . her greatest sorrow , though , came in the lack of a child . she had carried and lost , and has begun to worry that a babe would never be held in her arms . she grieves what she does not have .

lisabetta now lives in a place of uncertainty . unsure of her husband’s affections , unsure of her own security in her station , she persists only by the fire within her & the kindness that refuses to cease pouring out of her .
