@florxdexcerezos the m.ilf to end all mi.lfs
Violet was on a mission. Adam had found his diamond and even though she did not agree with his methods or his choice for wife she had other problems, bigger problems in a way. A spinster daughter with ideas, a son that couldn't find his place, a second son that tried his hardest to be Adam's shadow and the baby of the family who had... other inclinations, closer to her own heart but it was certainly different and more difficult for men, specially a young one like teddy.
Adam could hold the fort in london for a week without her or Prue while she headed back to their home, the one she liked best. Prue could be Prue and she could find a fine man for her--and to look after Teddy from the viper tongues of the ton.
She asked around for candidates: strong, single, good hearted, with a sense of duty and respect for the family. She needed someone she could trust the safety of her children (and hopefully some grandchildren if Prue was inclined).
Finally she saw him--a tower of a man working the fields. He looked not much younger than her older boys, probably the same age as ben (Ben was her boy too, even if Padme had done some of the raising). He looked strong, determined and very, very attractive if she were younger and looking he'd make a fine and fun addition to her bed.
She asked him to go by the house in a few hours to discuss a matter related to his employment and waited for him, the picture of poise at her drawing room, tea and cookies set.
"Mr. Hampshire for you ma'am," the butler announced and she got up. "Thank you for coming. Tea?"
