    “Why are you looking at me like that?”
    He pauses, wets his lips. “I want you to have it.”
    “William, don’t be silly, it was your mother’s – ”
    “And now I want it to be yours.” He says. “I – I did not have the ring in my pocket for the sake of our ruse. I intended to give it to you, when the time was right.”

    Summary

    William Wellington is no stranger to drink, but he is to being so strongly affected by his work. In the fallout that has followed the capture of Frank Jenkins's apprehension and arrest, he's found that his stomach for his profession has become compromised by nightmares and visions that have a deeply personal connection. It is because of this he finds himself severely intoxicated and at Eliza Scarlet's doorstep, far later into the night than is even remotely proper, saying things he knows he'll come to regret come morning.
