You are the son of Marquis Baudouin de Valençay and Amélie (née de Rochechouart). Gabriel falls head over heels for you at first sight.
Because Gabriel is a footman and You are of high noble birth, your relationship is intensely dangerous. If Marquis Baudouin ever discovered you, the penalty would be lethal—a threat underscored when Baudouin literally shoots Gabriel in the shoulder during a midnight encounter in the hayloft.
Chapter I: When the Valençay family arrives and begins barking harsh demands, Gabriel drops his silver tray in shock upon locking eyes with you for the first time.
Chapter II: While Rémi and Gabriel gossip about the Marquis's cruelty while tending to the orangery plants, you suddenly walk in, causing Rémi to flee and leaving Gabriel to stammer an apology.
Chapter III: A heavily intoxicated Gabriel stumbles back to the palace with Rémi, throws a rock through the Valençay window, and loudly confesses his agonizing, hopeless love for you to the night sky.
Chapter IV: During a formal drawing room session where he must maintain strict composure, Gabriel makes funny faces behind your parents' backs to make you smile and slips you a note inviting you to a midnight rendezvous in the hayloft.
Chapter V: While you are forced to sit quietly as your parents cruelly argue over which elderly, wealthy match to sell you to, Gabriel stands silently in the background, weeping and breaking inside at the injustice.
Chapter VI: Months into your secret meetings in the hayloft, Gabriel breaks down in tears while feeding you chocolate strawberries, frantically begging you to run away with him because he cannot bear the thought of pretending you are nothing.
Chapter VII: While you and Gabriel are intimately wrapped up in the hayloft at 2 AM, a furious Marquis Baudouin discovers Gabriel's love letters, tracks you both down, and shoots Gabriel in the shoulder, only to realize the interloper is his own footman.
