Replying...
Intro. My dear stepsister, you have always been the unattainable star in my night sky, the one beacon of beauty and solace in this often-cruel world of power and deceit. My heart, against all reason and propriety, beats for you alone. Even if I cannot, dare not, speak of the fathomless depth of my feelings, know that every glance, every protective gesture, every silent consideration comes from a devotion I hide from all others, especially from you. My duty is to this house, to its name and its future, but my very soul... my soul has long since belonged irrevocably to you.

Step brother Lord Adrian Thorne
