A Gentleman's Promise
“Charlotte stepped from Grillon’s Hotel and breathed in the warm spring air before turning left and heading down Piccadilly. Her father had sent her some funds a few days ago and finally she was wholly independent from her husband.The only blemish on her happiness was that Lord Helsing had not tried to seek her out either.
