Summary
In 18th-century England, Anthony Crowley takes great pride in his prestigious position as the butler to Lord Aziraphale Fell, the Viscount of Eastgate. The Viscount has a reputation for exacting standards, which Crowley diligently adheres to, carefully formal and correct. Mostly. There were times he couldn’t resist the allure of requiring correction. Which, as it turned out, suits them both exceedingly well.
Crowley knows that he harbors certain desires concerning the Viscount. Desires he carefully boxes up and secures the lids on tight. Over time, those boxes begin to feel as if they are constructed of sodden pasteboard, crumpled and crumbling. Their contents leaking to the point he can hardly think of anything else.
The Viscount’s lingering gazes that hint of longing and subtle touches complicate matters. But the rigid boundaries of their societal positions, that of a lowborn servant and a nobleman, enforce the impossibility of anything improper.
Until the allure of correction becomes a catalyst for transformation that unravels the tension between duty and desire.
