|  ---------------------- ---------------------- Though he did love Willa, he just wished she'd made better choices in life. The same somewhat applied to Rueben. He'd done all that he could to ensure the family was respected and that no one spoke ill of them, but could he reach that goal? Especially given the society that they lived in. Tabitha had been the least of his worries since he'd been given his dukedom.
Shaking his head, he responded, "No, no, you're fine." He reassured her. William supposed he just needed a drink and a pipe to help him relax a little after that tough day. It was uncommon for him to return home so... drained. Sometimes, he wished he was born as someone else, someone who did not have all these duties. He loved life, don't get him wrong, yet there were days like these that forced him to rethink his life.
He supposed it was easier because he was born a male.
"What is it you needed?" He looked up for a moment. |

| -------------------------------------------- He had not properly talked to his brother's new governess. This was among the very few times that they'd ever interacted. Given his busy life, he could not see Evelina very often. He much preferred her company over her brother's, fortunately, and unfortunately, and so, a majority of times, Rueben was present. This time, he wasn't and William was slightly thankful that he would have some one-on-one time with his darling niece.
Offering Clara a small nod of the head, "I thank you for bringing her yourself, Miss Honeyfield," What a strange surname, he thought. Picking young Evelina up, he rocked her in her arms, throwing her up for a moment before catching her in his arms and hugging her with a soft chuckle, "And... where is Gilly?" He questioned, raising a playful eyebrow at his niece, before casting a glance at Clara.
His eyes were almost pleading as he grinned. |

Frankly, the duke had never witnessed such an event before in his life but he knew what it was. Either she was giving birth to a babe or she was suffering a miscarriage. William Slade did go to Oxford, after all, and was taught several subjects, among them being the sciences. Any educated, well-mannered man would not leave a lady in such distress, even if she was practically begging him to leave her be. He would not have it under his roof. William may have been a cold man on the outside, but on the inside, he genuinely had a soft heart, as well as emotions just like any common man.
William approached her slowly and without even asking her, he lifted one of her arms and placed it over his shoulders. He would not force her to go upstairs, as it would be painful, but he would return her to the servant's quarters that she had just come from and call for help. She needed to be comfortable. "I will not return to my room until I see to your health, Rose." The Duke returned. She was under his employment after all and he felt a responsibility toward ensuring her safety.
He would not judge her pregnancy, either, or at least try not to. They were from diverse classes -- diverse backgrounds. If it were one of his sisters, the situation would have been entirely different. Finding the closest, empty room, Will led the younger redhead inside and laid her on the bed. "I will call for help. Stay here." Before even hearing her out, he left the room and knocked on his butler's door, requesting that he contact the family's doctor right away.
He knocked on a few of the maid's doors, and upon them opening for him, he informed him of Rose's condition. There would be no more discomfort at Apsley House that evening. Will would make sure of it. Re-entering her room, he addressed the lady in pain, "Rose, the doctor will be here shortly. Please allow Sybil and Florence to help you."

William woke up in the middle of the night to grab a glass of water, not wishing to wake any of his servants up in the middle of the night. Above everything else, he respected them, paying their wages on time, even increasing them for some, believing that they truly deserved it. Opening the door to his bedroom, he took a few steps down the hall, down the spiral staircase, and straight toward the home's kitchen. His thoughts were fixed on the dream he'd just had about Philomena until he was distracted by the sound of a lady. His eyes widened at the sight of her bloodied abdomen, swallowing hard. It was one of his servants, Rose, and she seemed to be in distress. "Rose," The Duke commented, extending both his arms out to try and comfort her. "Rose, do not be afraid, I will call upon the family's doctor."

William was somewhat praying in his mind that she would show up to the ball that he was hosting that evening. She was the sole person on his mind, as she was the divine light that showed every time she entered a room. He was nervous, to say the least, as he watched the entrance of the hall, every few moments his butler announcing the names that entered. It seemed as if she wasn't going to make it this time, unfortunately, so he focused his attention more on the man beside him. 'The Duke of Harcourt, accompanied by his daughter, Lady Philomena.' The duke paused between his words, freezing in the frame for a moment, hoping that was not dreaming and that she was actually present. Turning around to face the announcer, his eyes then moved toward the lady in the dark blue silk. Offering her a soft smile, the host approached them both, bowing in respect. "Your Grace, my lady -- I am so pleased to know that you could make it after so many years."

The Duke was running late to his meeting with his niece and her governess and he was well aware of it as he hopped off his horse, granting its reigns to one of the stableboys that appeared by his side, petting the animal on its mane before offering them his goodbye. Fixing his tailored tailcoat, he beelined toward the drawing room that was situated in the right wing of Slade House in London. One of his servants opened the door to the drawing room and announced his presence, to which he offered them a nod back. Smiling at Evelina, he bent and opened his arms, thankful that the goat had not accompanied her this time. Glancing up at the governess, he addressed her, "Miss Honeyfield -- a pleasure." | This Royal Throne of Kings
