Cora remembered that feeling with her husband before he had passed away at sea. "It is alright, I love Henry as I love my own son... you know this Alice." She said quietly as she was packing some of her son's toys so they could start with the move. Apart of her did not want to leave as she looked to her cousin. "I think I might have found someone..." She said in a very quiet voice as she went on. "He is the local blacksmith and a widower." A smile cross her lips as she was thinking of the handsome blacksmith with his young adorable daughter. "I mean... I know that he is a good father to his daughter and... he is a good man." She had kissed him before dinner a day before and he had said that he had liked it.
"If your step father knows what is good for him then he will not touch you or your son... because I will kill him myself, atleast my son would have you and you would be safe." Cora said quietly as she hugged her cousin. "You know I would do anything for you and if you needed me to take Henry again... I would. You are the closest I have had to a sister."
She did think for a moment before saying. "Do you think I could invite the blacksmith and his daughter? They had both been so kind to me and the two boys."

Sitting herself down by her husband, she had a feeling that if she won this little game then she was going to make sure that he paid if he tried to huminate her in anyway possible. Taking the bottle of wine, she poured herself another cup of it to drink as she was eating a bit of the food spread as well. "Alright, what are the rules and I suppose I will let you go first, Tavis." She said with a little smile on her face.

Alice looked at her. "Alexander Smith...oh he is a good man...and his daughter is adorable." She smiled then bit her bottom lip and looked at her. "Invite them. My grandmother in law will be glad to have another child running around and my young sister in laws adore little ones." She took a deep breath and helped her finish packing. After a few moments, she grabbed the bags and helped her carry them out to the front room and to the door where servants were ready to take them onto the keep. Once done, she glanced at her husband who was outside with the boys and smiled. Things were looking up for herself and her son and her family in general. God she hoped so anyway.

"You won," tavis grovelled that night and then sighed as he looked at his wife. Except for his undershorts, he had walked through the village nearly naked. It was all in good humor of course but he was a sore loser. He looked at his wife and smirked. "My revenge will be so much sweeter," he teased her after a moment then leaned forward and kissed her as they sat in the small common room with the children while Alice, her son, and his brother were alone in their chambers. the woman who had looked after Alice's son and who had her own son, were in their quarters, leaving he and his family quite alone.
He glanced at Ainsley and Ethan as they played together and he smiled before looking at his wife. "I don't think I've ever seen Gran laugh so hard...I suppose that is a good thing. Though, it was embarrassing as hell."
-----
Alice watched Henry as he slept and stroked his brow before she got up, walking away from his small bed and toward her husband, wrapping her arms around his neck and then looking at her son as he slept. "I never thought I would ever see him like this," she whispered. "In the home I live in. Sleeping close by...it will be a difficult adjustment for him, but I know he can do it," she mused thoughtfully then looked at him and kissed him slowly. "Mmm....Tomas...You deserve sainthood," she whispered softly then closed her eyes and laid her head against his shoulder.

"And what sort of revenge will that be?" She teased as she thought of the afternoon since she had taken the horse but then... he had ripped one of her favourite gowns as well as some of the dares that he had made her do... well, they would make her blush as she looked to the children before moving to leave her husband for a moment. "I know that you do not wish to do so but it is time for bed." She said to the two of them as Ainsley pouted and Ethan shook his head. Sighing, Joanne did not reliaze how hard it could be to take care of children but she was patient as she said. "No, it is time for bed." She said as she lifted up Ethan and put a hand out for the little girl so she would take it and they could be put to sleep for the evening.
Turning a little to Tavis, she said. "Is Da going to help put these two to bed?" She asked as Ethan was cuddling into her chest and Ainsley was looking hopeful that he would come and say good night to the two of them.

Tomas shook his head feeling happy that his wife was feeling good about the whole situation. "I wonae let your stepfather bother you again." He said seriously as he looked down as her before guiding her out of the sleeping child's room and into the next one. He thought that the boy would need to develop attachment with his mother as well as with himself since he was still young. "As for Henry, he will only be in the next room over, love." He said as he had his arm around her wanting to take her to their chamber so the two of them could get some sleep.
Sitting on the bed, Tomas was undressing for the evening so that the two of them could sleep and perhaps do more. However, at the moment... he was feeling tired.
