“You look radiant.” Sinclair’s father is beaming up at me from his wheelchair, “how’s my grandbaby treating you?”
“Oh he’s certainly making his presence known.”I laugh, sliding my arms into the sleeves of my coat.
Sinclair is holding the garment up for me, then straightens it around my shoulders as if worried I won’t be warm enough. He’s been particularly on edge tonight, and though I understand his agitation, I’m beginning to tire of being treated like a china doll. “Stop fussing, Dominic, I’m fine.”
“I’m still not sure this is a good idea.” He grumbles. “
Your blood pressure was much too high this afternoon and you didn’t get nearly enough rest.”
“You’re the one who keeps telling me how important these events are.”i remind him. “And I feel perfectly well.
He’s still muttering to himself, and Henry chuckles,
You’re fighting a losing battle, my dear. There won’t be any reasoning with him – I was the same way when his mother was breeding and we weren’t campaigning.”
“It’s too much stress.” Sinclair agrees. “All the media and the royal family, on top of the crowds.”
“Not to mention your brother.” Henry adds darkly. It’s true that this is the first time l’m going to be encountering all of these people together, but it’s also far from the last. The Yuletide Feast is only the third night of the festival, and we still have four more high profile events to get through before we can relax. Even then it will only be a temporary reprieve – we still have the rest of the campaign to get through.
“I’Il be fine.” l insist. “You don’t have to coddle me. “
Both men raise their eyebrows, as if to say that this isn’t my decision and I absolutely do need to be coddled.
Sure enough, Sinclair shakes his head and overrules me.
“We’ll come home at the first sign you feel overwhelmed – and that isn’t up for debate.”
