Rosearia was in her house in London with her butler Mathias Riggs she was in her room reading a book while drinking some tea

Rosearia was skimming over the pages having read the same detective novel 3 times in a row she was really engaged in the book

"Reading that detective novel again" a voice said cutting off her thoughts making her look up to see her butler with another cup of tea

Rosearia narrowed her eyes at him and picked up her tea "there's nothing wrong with rereading a novel I happen to be fond of" Rosearia said sipping her tea

"Of course not m'lady I'm just concerned that you might get too attached to it" Mathias said pouring more tea into her cup

"Thank you for your concern but I can handle things myself" Rosearia said making Mathias bow "apologies I just wanted to state my opinion" Mathias said

"That's fine and all but make sure you don't say anything you might regret in the future" Rosearia said as Mathias bowed "understood I will watch what I say from now on" he said and left the room

Rosearia sighed and leaned back against the couch then she looked up at the ceiling "I wonder what William is doing right now" Rosearia said with a smile on her face

I was currently writing a letter to send to my goddess Rosearia to invite her to the house and have some tea with me and my brothers

I dipped my writing quill into the inkwell and continued to write when Fred and Sébastian entered my office "is everything in place" I said not looking up from writing

"Everything is as planned" Fred said "what are you writing there?" Sébastian said growing curious "I do believe that's none of your business" I said as I continued writing

"Is it for your lady friend with the heterochromia" Sébastian said this made me stop writing and stood up facing Sébastian

"When I say it's none of your business what I mean is you should keep your nose out of things that don't concern you" I said with a dangerous smile on my face

"Alright I know when to stop pestering" Sébastian said as both Fred and that nosy Sébastian left my office I sighed and sat in my chair rubbing my brows tiredly

"Sometimes it's astounding to me how they get these idea's" I said as I heard the door open again to reveal my brother Louis

"Am I interrupting?" Louis said "no...I'm just thinking come in..." I said crossing my legs whilst I sat in my chair "this came in the post earlier" Louis said handing me a letter

I gently grasp the letter and ripped it open pulling out the content inside 'it's from her' I thought to myself as I smiled gently while reading the letter

"Is it from sister in law" Louis said making me look at him curiously "Why pray tell did you say that" I said slightly amused

"It wouldn't be a surprise if you both got married in the near future after all your fondness of her is quite obsessive and she's fond of you as well" Louis said

"Oh...do you mean to say that my obsession has become more than that" I said putting my fist to my cheek leaning against my desk

"Of course not but I do say this in all respect if she does find out about our operations you'd have to let her go" Louis said then left my office

Meanwhile...

Rosearia's pov

I was looking into a mirror showing the image of William who was in deep thought after the talk with Louis 'well it doesn't matter if I already knew in the first place' I thought to myself

I saw him lean back in his chair 'he looks so tired when was the last time he had a good night's sleep' I thought to myself

I waved the image on the mirror away and I heard a knock on my door and "enter" I said writing inside my journal "inspector lestrade is here to see you m'lady" Mathias said

"Ill be down in a moment" I said as Mathias closed the door and I closed my journal standing up and heading downstairs

Lestrade was tapping his foot impatiently "I wasn't aware I was having any guests today, what brings you here inspector Lestrade" Rosearia said

"Lady Rosearia Crossheart...it has come to my attention and that of Scotland yard that someone is trying to kill you" inspector lestrade said

Rosearia sighed "is that all...I was wondering what you were here for..." Rosearia said as she sighed deeply "you knew" inspector lestrade said

"I am not without my enemies I just so happened to pick up on it a few day's after the cruise on the noahtic" Rosearia said spreading her fan out and Fanning herself

"If you come with us to Scotland yard we'll be determined to provide protection for you m'lady" inspector lestrade said

"That's quite thoughtful of you but I already have someone in mind" Rosearia said "Really who?" Lestrade said as a fond smile made it's way to her face

Meanwhile...

William was finished writing his letter to Rosearia and grabbed his coat and tophat getting ready to send the letter to the postman

"Are you going somewhere" Albert asked curiously from the living room "just off to send a letter to the postman I won't be long" William said

Just as William opened the door to leave he was shocked to see Rosearia standing right outside the door with a suitcase in hand

"Rosearia this is a pleasant surprise what brings you here" William said "I'm sorry to have arrived unannounced but I'm in need of your assistance" Rosearia said

William looks at Rosearia who had a serious look on her face William pulls off his tophat "won't you come in" he said as he was hiding the letter for rose!Rosearia behind his back
