Seraphina gradually noticed that her husband, the Duke of Everwyn, had been acting rather strange lately.
Seraphina couldn't shake off that idea of hers. It all started when she had just woken up from her fever.
In retrospect, his behavior had always been somewhat peculiar. Raven could seem to be uncomfortable in some areas and tried to hide it. Sometimes, she almost saw it as him being embarrassed himself.
Also, he had never let Seraphina out of his embrace when the two of them were together. When it was only her feet that tried to touch the floor, he still hugged her in a hurry. It was almost as if she would be in for deep trouble if her feet had touched the floor.
Seraphina had heard from Lily afterwards that Raven was the one who told the butler to lay down the fluffy carpet all over the mansion, just for her sake. Seraphina was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh from the embarrassment.
'I wasn't even hurt, I simply caught a cold.'
