[color= #BC0057] “There was a warmth to Finch that I cannot deny. Unlike Azucena, he does not pull me closer, but allows me to sink into him. It is quite different from Azucena’s kiss. However, every kiss with a lady is quite preferred. Especially considering it was consensual. I must say Azucena.” [/color]
[color= #BC0057] “If Lady Osuna was to come to me early in our encounters, explain her initial motivations, then explain her feelings in spite of herself, I would have forgiven her. No one should be faulted for matters of the heart. Whether or not our love would have continued to grow will now remain unknown. That is the choice she has made on our behalf. However, the care I held for her ran deep. I would like to believe it would have continued to do so in light of her honesty.” [/color]
[color= #BC0057] “As Aurelia and I were granted so little time alone, it was not often that we spoke of others. We enjoyed our time together apart from the ton and the issues others brought with them. Our relationship was our own. It held little room for the presence of others. I did not question her lack of introduction, for I trust Aurelia and her judgement. There are a handful of friends I would not bring in her presence either. Perhaps she held her reasons. They are not mine to judge.” [/color]
