These men had served Calvert’s family for many years. After a moment, one of them finally spoke, cautious and measured.
“In the stories told in television dramas, when someone can’t win the one they love, they resort to tying them up and keeping them close. Since Rupert seems immune to both gentle p>
“…and even forceful approaches, why not try something else? Tie him up and take him back to France. Isn’t it said that love can grow over time? Maybe, if you keep him close long enough, it will work p>
