"In my office, now."
"No, father. I made my choice."
"I know. Things need to be sorted out, my dear."
Nicole watched as Austin walked into the office. She wondered what would happen and when Francis would show up. She went with her mother to the parlor and she told her everything and that the kiss was unexpected for both of them but it was the best thing she had ever experienced.
"I don't know if it makes sense, but when his lips touched mine, my heart felt like it was dancing."
"It makes sense to me. I got the same feeling with your father."
"Really?"
"Yes, But there is something I must ask you."
"What is it?"
"Austin is in the army. At any given moment he could be called away and it could be the last you see him. I do believe it's why he let you go

A Scandalous Love Revelation
Nicole came out and went to breakfast three days after the tavern incident. Marie was at the table with a plate. She told Nicole that Austin had already been down and was gone to the second house. Nicole sat down and started eating when Lee came down and sat next to her. "Why do you have to be such a bitch?" "Excuse me?" "Do you have any idea what you are doing to him?" "What I'm doing to him?" "So what if a whore was sitting in his lap, you are just his wife." "No, I am his wife, not just his wife. And none of it would have happened if it weren't for you." "You need to make up with him." "We are still living under the same roof, aren't we. For now, that's enough." "No, you...." "Let's not forget that you are indeed his brother, but I am still a duchess and I think you've forgotten your place." Lee stared at her not sure what to say next when the butler came in and told Lee that Austin needed him. Lee got up from the table but turned back to her. "Forgive me, your grace, if
A Scandalous Love The Betrayal
The next morning, Nicole was feeling better and Austin asked her six different times from when she got up and went down to eat. Marie was in her room and said she wasn't feeling good. Nicole said she'd be up to check on her later. She had Lilly stay with her, just to be sure.After breakfast, Austin took Nicole to the house at the back of the property. She smiled as so much had been done. It wasn't run down anymore and there was new paint, doors, windows, and even balconies on the outside. On the inside, they met Lee and they let her walk around. She saw every room and noticed the only room furnished was the study. She smiled as she turned to them when they finished the upstairs and Lee had a hopeful look."Well?""I think she is going to love it.""How do I do it though?""Propose to her here in the bedroom you intend on sharing with her.""How do I get her here?""She's sick today. Tomorrow, if she's feeling better, I will bri
A Scandalous Love Lee and Marie
Austin sat in his office long after Lee's confession and everyone had gone to bed. He sat in the chair in front of the fireplace drinking a glass of whiskey. He was so caught up in his thoughts, that he didn't even hear the door open. When Nicole put her hands on his shoulders, he jumped. "Hey. It's just me." "I'm sorry, my dear, I didn't even hear you come in." "What's going on?" "It's Lee." "What did he say?" "His feelings are true for Marie and he intends to see them through." "Shouldn't you be happy, then? This is great news." "Yes, but Lee is not that type of person. he doesn't care like that and Marie is so innocent." "Most men are like that until they lose their heart." "I know that." "Just see what happens. Your brother might surprise you yet." "I hope you are right." "For Marie's sake, I hope so too." "How late is it?" "Almost morning." "I'm
A Scandalous Love The Announcement
Four days later, she was sitting in the drawing-room. Their families were supposed to arrive tomorrow for the dinner. She was reading a book on the window seat when Lilly walked in with a tray of tea and biscuits. She set it down and Nicole looked at her. "What's all this?" "His grace thought you might be hungry." "That's very kind of him." Lilly dipped her head and left her, knowing Nicole would want to pour her own tea. Nicole went back to her book after getting a plate with biscuits and poured herself some tea. Austin came in later and found the biscuits gone and the teapot almost empty. He smiled and came over next to her. He sat behind her and pulled her into his lap. She smiled when he kissed her and he told her to keep reading. He just wanted to enjoy her company. When Lilly came back a couples of hours later to get the tray, she found both of them asleep on the window seat. She grabbed the tray and excused herself and told the rest of the staf
A Scandalous Love The Confrontation
Austin arrived at his father's estate and as soon as he dismounted, his brothers met him outside. They already knew why he was here. Jason stood tall and tried to reason with Austin about his course of action. "It is reckless of you to go down this path. You could ruin everything you have accomplished." "But she would live a life in fear wondering if he will do something." "He's said he won't." "So they would let him out." "Why would he do that?" "Well, I know someone like you that has never seen the inside of that prison, you won't understand. I, on the other hand, have wardened over that place and know all too well how things are like on the inside. The devil himself would sell his soul to get out." Jason stared, shocked at the confession. Lee came over and clapped him on the back. "I'm with you, no matter what." "I know. Thank you." Then, his father came out and saw him standing there. "
A Scandalous Love A New Day
Nicole woke up the next morning to find herself alone. She was sad at first but laughed to herself. Austin had gotten up early and started working on things that needed to be done. He made a whole list after inspecting the grounds the day before. He grew up the son of an earl who didn't have to do anything and now he was a duke who still didn't have to do anything, but the military made him enjoying using his hands. He needed to do things on his own and she knew this would always be a part of him. She got up and dressed for the day and went downstairs to the breakfast table. There was a buffet of food laid out and the housekeeper told her that the servants had eaten some of the food that went out with him. She smiled at this, glad that this wouldn't be a problem. She enjoyed her maid and housekeeper and cook to sit down and eat with her. Her personal lady's maid was nervous at first when she had first asked, but now it was just something that they did. Once breakfast was ove
