the place to find relaxing stories for a good night's rest. My name's Andrew. Thanks for joining me.

Tonight I'll be reading The Three Musketeers by Alexander DeMas.

Chapters 34 and 35.

In the previous chapters, Kitty confesses her love for d'Artagnan, and reveals that

Malady does not share his feelings, being in love

with the Comte de wards instead. Motivated by her love for D'Artagnan, Kitty allows him to eavesdrop on Melady,

where he learns of her orders from the Cardinal to handle him carefully.

The lady also admits her role in Madame Bonacieux's kidnapping.

D'Artagnan vows revenge, and with Kitty's help, he intercepts her letters to the Comte,

sending a false one under the Comte's name.

Kitty continues to aid D'Artagnan fully,

while he feigns affection for her to maintain his deception.

Now that you're caught up with the story so far,

let's get ourselves ready for sleep.

Start by taking a deep, relaxing breath.

And settle your body in whatever way feels most comfortable.
