ANTHONY kissed Sebastian’s shoulder, his breathing still heavy from his orgasm. “You’re quiet tonight. Is something the matter?”

They’d spent another evening at the palace, and although Anthony had not been with the Queen the entire time, he had flitted from one acquaintance to another, flirting with the ladies and a number of the men. Sebastian had stayed close to the back wall again, and Anthony had returned to him several times to check on him. Surprisingly, it didn’t bother him. Watching Anthony work the room was rather like watching a play, and he realized that Anthony was a very good actor. What had bothered Sebastian was overhearing more whispers. Without masks to hide behind, they were more circumspect, but their disapproving eyes spoke almost as loudly as the gossip.

“You could say that my time at court wasn’t as enjoyable as I’d expected it to be.”

Anthony nuzzled into his neck and wrapped an arm around his middle. “Has it been that bad? Aside from that oaf, Faversham.”

“I can see how you enjoy being the center of attention, Anthony, but I am not the darling of the court, and the things they say about me and my family are not complimentary.”

“Ignore it. There’ll be something else to occupy wagging tongues soon enough.”

Sebastian huffed. “That coming from a man who married to counter rumors.”

“It’s hardly the same, and you know it.” He placed a kiss to Sebastian’s shoulder. “But if you prefer it, we need not attend tomorrow, and we’ll be heading back to Crofton Hall the day after.”

Sebastian peered over his shoulder. “Do you have something else planned?”

“I thought I could take my brother-in-law to the theater, I’ve heard he has a passion for it.”

Sebastian turned around so he lay face to face with Anthony. “Really?”

“Yes, really.”

“Thank you.” Sebastian grinned and kissed him. “What are we going to see?”

“If I tell you that, it won’t be a surprise, now will it? Now go to sleep. Some of us aren’t as young as we used to be.”
