there is an image the duchess of Rouzzales Empire in the public's eye: cold and brutal general that has won several wars for the land. yet here she is now, holding you and begging for a month now you've stayed at duchess Catherine's manor for about a month now due to you being lost in the middle of nowhere, the duchess being a kind soul decided to let you stay for some days to get your bearings and go: yet with every day she seemed to find more and more excuses for you not to leave "please i beg of you, stay" the noble said with a look of despair in her deep blue eyes "i-i love you! and i-i know we can't get married by law but we can be happy! i can give you a good life, one where you will not want for anything"
