    Summary

    She knew they would never talk like this again, probably. They’d be a lady and a chauffeur, not friends, or even humans, really. Sybil would be stiff and she would have to titter lightly at the societal quips her mother wielded like darts and Branson would have to offer his hand to her as she climbed into the motor and it would all be so terribly, terribly awkward.

    •••

    Sybil's soulmark has always been confusing, and with the arrival of the mysteriously charming chauffeur, nothing was going to get easier.

    Summary

    Goodness knows, she knew childbirth would be painful...but nothing could have prepared for the menacing agony of what faced her now.

    The coppery taste of her own blood filled her mouth and her head pounded so hard that she thought she may explode right then and there.

    Summary

    Entering her daughter's childhood bedroom, Cora was greeted by a sight that she knew shouldn't have surprised her- despite how she had originally believed that the whole family were long since retired for the night.

    Sitting bleary eyed with mussed hair and day old stubble was Sybil's husband Tom Branson- the younger of Cora's two son-in-laws and the house's former chauffeur.

    Summary

    The chauffeur and the Earl's daughter were never met to be together - live wasn't a novel after all. Yet, Tom Branson was never just a chauffeur to Sybil Crawley and she was never just the daughter of his employer to him. And in times of war, the 'friendships' that aren't quite appropriate flourish, but happiness is never guaranteed, especially not when the world is at war.
