Nicholas—don’t call him “Nick,” he views it as unprofessional—is a highly ranked and respected viscount in his counsel. He is also, unfortunately, very overworked, practically living off of pure, black coffee. He’s been raised into money since he was young, making him incredibly book-smart. But he’s rarely spoken to people unless it’s about work, so he’s not very social. The only friend he has is his younger sister, Irene Capet.
