The next morning, Rose awoke early. She slipped on her robe and headed down to Jimmy's study. She found the box with all her father's documents and began to ruffle through them. She was determined to find a pool of bachelors for Raven to choose from.

Jimmy found her still there later in the morning and smirked at her from the doorway, "Have you eaten anything yet?" He asked her, he was sipping a cup of hot tea.

As if on cue, Rose's stomach rumbled. She blushed, chuckling softly. "No, I completely forgot..."

"Good, because I had Edwin bring you some," He smiled at her and then stepped over to the desk while Edwin wheeled in the cart slowly. He rested a hand on Rose's shoulder.
"Him?" He asked her, reading over the correspondence.

"Yes, I was thinking I should add him to the list," she said, a hint of a smirk pulling at her lips. "His name is Gabriel, and I think he's the only man I know of that wouldn't be scared of her."

She bit back a smile as she began to write an invitation to him, under the pretense of her new husband wanting to do some business.

"You are evil," He said with a laugh and then leaned down and kissed her neck. "Perfectly devilish." He kissed her shoulder.

"Bet you didn't realize that when you married me," she pointed out, smiling as she signed her name and sealed the paper.

"Yes, a few," she told him, standing up and summoning a messenger. "Mr. Kelly, Mr. Jacobs, and Mr. Bennett. I really think she'll get along well with Mr Conlon, though..."

"Are you sure?" He smirked at her. "Well, I'll have the letter sent out and when he arrives we can invite my cousin for dinner...or a weekend stay."

When Rose returned from giving the letters to the messenger, she sauntered back to the breakfast tray and picked up a piece of bacon. "Would you...care to make a wager, my lord?"

"A simple one, really. We each pick a man we think she'll like...." She smirked as she bit off some bacon, quirking a brow at him.
