#Duke #Stories #Love The candlelight caught the diamonds at her father's throat as he said it, loud enough for the entire room to hear: "That is not the sister meant to sit beside a duke." Unity Bardwell did not flinch, though every eye in that gilded room turned to measure her and find her wanting. Across the small space between them, Duke Francis Bentley said nothing at all — not a word, not a glance — though something behind his pale grey eyes had already begun, quietly, to change. Weeks later, when he finally spoke the truth he had been guarding since that very night, it would undo them both.
