Summary
Taigen laughs uproariously, eyes glittering. “Oh, I’m conceited? I think everything is about me? Look in a mirror sometime, Mizu! You’re so selfish, you rip through people’s lives like they’re paper. Nothing matters as long as Mizu gets what he wants.”
There’s truth to his words, and Mizu knows it, which makes her all the angrier.
---
When her ship is destroyed at sea and Fowler is nowhere to be found, Mizu will do whatever it takes to find him, kill him, and continue her quest for revenge. Whether the journey takes her far afield, brings her back home, or lands her in the middle of Edo castle, Mizu is determined to see her violent errand through... and no arrogant, stubborn, infuriating ronin is going to stand in her way. -

Summary
Ellen Cochrane dots her i's and crosses her t's, pays her rent early, darns her socks before they're holey, and makes hectographs of every pamphlet she writes, just in case. She strives to be a woman perpetually prepared, but, despite her best efforts to head off her inevitable separation from Edward and spare herself the heartbreak, Ellen was prepared for precisely none of what followed...
Or, the one in which Edward makes a different choice, and Iveagh House will never be the same again.

Summary
If Ellen is pregnant, as we all suspect, then the only move that could save her from complete social ruin would be for her to get hitched, and fast— "you'll need a permanent man," as Edward put it.
Who would fill that role? Who could the Guinness family trust with this kind of secret? Some guy Ellen picks at random at the pub one night? Not her style. Byron Hedges? There's no way Ellen would agree to that. Who, then, is left but the family's most trusted confidant of all...

Summary
Maybe it was the fact that Arthur had only ever seen Rafferty once, and ‘seen’ didn’t accurately describe it, but he couldn’t picture Lady Olivia willingly standing within ten feet of that man.
That’s if he were even a man under that helm.
No. As far as Arthur was aware, his father had been harbouring a beast; a creature whose body had become so disfigured from however many years of battle and drinking and fucking that it no longer chose to show its face.
Arthur wondered if Olivia had ever pressed a kiss to its metal mouth; he seethed.
Or
Arthur Guinness finally has the pleasure in meeting the knight who has been unashamedly fucking his wife. To say that he is equally intimidated as he is aroused would be an understatement.
(Arthur POV)
