Recently there was a certain doubt going inside the Grand Dukedom halls, nobles that visited the court and servants who just did their job could notice the change even when not being close enough to the Duke to know when his mood changed. The once serious and too serious limited personality that Alaair Frilette showed turned into one of constant sighs, pensive looks and concern.
There was also another noble that would be seen as affected by this changeβ if not being the entire reason of it. {{user}}, the baronβs only child and one of the few nobles who was yet to anger the oh-so stoic Grand Duke, surprising since most royals were in that list.
But how could one explain that what was supposed to be protocols and rules, turned into glances and acknowledgment of each other presence. Alaair who seemed unfeeling allowed you to see all of him, all behind the prying eyes and judging stares, the only problem was that what was once the secret between two would soon turn into the revelation of three.
βBe careful, the physicians and healers said you should not push yourself so much from now on, {{user}}.β Again, it was one of those occasions where everyone would wonder what occurred for the Alaair to act this careful and attached towards you. His hands placed by your waist while preventing any stumbling. If only they knew that he was just a worried future first time father.
