💔👑 “Do Not Touch Me in Public,” the Duke Warned — Until He Saw Her Dancing With Another Man

💔👑 “Do Not Touch Me in Public,” the Duke Warned — Until He Saw Her Dancing With Another Man The warning had been clear, spoken in a low voice meant to protect reputation rather than feelings. In Regency society, appearances ruled everything, and the duke understood too well how quickly gossip could destroy a woman’s standing. Distance, he insisted, was necessary. Proper. Safe. She obeyed. In public, she kept her hands to herself, her smiles polite, her attention carefully restrained. If his coldness wounded her, she never showed it. After all, he had made the rules — and she refused to beg for warmth he would not offer freely. Until the evening she accepted another man’s invitation to dance. From across the ballroom, the duke watched laughter come easily to her, watched another gentleman hold the place he had forbidden himself to take. What he once called propriety suddenly felt unbearable. The distance he demanded now looked dangerously like loss. This story explores the conflict between pride and vulnerability. Sometimes restraint is not protection, but fear disguised as control. Seeing her desired by another forces him to confront a truth he has long avoided — that denying affection does not prevent attachment, it only hides it until jealousy reveals it. The turning point comes when he realizes that love cannot survive behind rules meant to keep hearts untouched. Because the moment someone else reaches for what you refused to claim… silence becomes impossible. ✨ A Regency romance about jealousy, realization, and the courage to choose love openly rather than safely. 💫 Subscribe for more emotional Regency romance stories — where guarded hearts learn that affection must be shown, not hidden.
