Sarah M. Eden Quote
I can do that, Your Grace. The abigail apparently expected him to relinquish his duties. Adam silently shook his head, softly rubbing more blood from her ankle. It is not seemly for a duke to be acting as a lady’s maid or a physician, Your Grace. Perhaps not. Adam didn’t take his eyes from his task. But a husband is charged with keeping his wife in sickness, is he not? Yes, Your Grace. The maid sounded more confused than anything else. Then I would venture that tending to my wife is perfectly seemly. Lud, her ankle was terribly swollen, and tender, if her continued grimace were any indication. It is highly unusual. And when has the Duke of Kielder cared what was usual? The bones didn’t feel out of place. If anything, there might be a small crack. Persephone was fortunate in that, at least. Yes, Your Grace.
